Rudy: The ultimate hypocrite

I love the subhead for this Michelle Goldberg opinion piece: "Once upon a time, we spread ideals of democracy and rule of law. Now? We send Giuliani."

Thanks to Giuliani’s escapades, the domestic grudges of a crooked Ukrainian prosecutor have blossomed into a scandal that’s likely to lead to the impeachment of an American president. Federal prosecutors are now investigating whether Giuliani himself broke the law.

In the preceding post, we identified the paymasters of Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas, the two Soviet-born Florida crooks who hired Rudy Giuliani. The Mr. Big behind this whole operation is Ukrainian criminal Dmitry Firtash, a Putin-friendly 'garch now holed up in Austria. He's the reason why Fruman, Parnas and Rudy planned to take a Viennese holiday.

Dig: Trump didn't pay Rudy one dime to be his lawyer bag man. The money came from Firtash.

Whenever you saw Rudy on teevee spreading lies, you were seeing Firtash funding at work. Demonic Dmitry paid for that.

How do we know that Firtash is a very bad dude? Because Rudy Giuliani himself said so. Here's Rudy on video, laying into Firtash. At the time, Firtash was represented by Lanny Davis, whom Rudy wanted to besmirch.

"He is considered to be one of the close associates of [Semion] Mogilevich, who is the head of Russian organized crime, who is Putin's best friend. Lanny Davis has represented him for four or five years. If the newspapers are correct, he gets $80,000 a month from this guy who's considered to be one of the high-level, Russian organized crime members or associates," Giuliani said.

Davis no longer represents Firtash. You know who does? Victoria Toensing and Joseph diGenova, the lovely couple who frequently defend Trump on Fox teevee. They also love to spread conspiracy theories about Darth Soros.

And now Trey Gowdy wants to replace Rudy, who replaced Michael Cohen. Why would anyone want that job?

Conspiracy theory: Is "theory" the right word? Last month, Robin Ramsey -- editor of the maverick UK parapolitical periodical Lobster -- offered a look back at some of the oddball conspiracy theories which became popular during the 1990s. Things are worse now.

Social media has changed things somewhat. The word ‘theories’ is hardly justified for some of the stuff that is heard today (we need a new word for it) but theories and propositions get circulated much more quickly than they used to. Then they get expanded and amended by everybody and their incompetent cousin. These days we have collective conspiracy theory formation. But the really big change isn’t technology: it’s the input of party politics and religion. Both the big recent US net-based conspiracy theories, Pizzagate and QAnon, contain anti-Democratic Party and Christian or Christian-derived paranoia about the Devil and/or non-Christian religions. In one chapter of his The United States of Paranoia, Jesse Walker discusses conspiracy theory in the late 1970s and early 80s – when I first got interested in it – a world of little newsletters. Walker reminded me that, entertaining though the likes of the late Mae Brussel and Robert Anton Wilson may have been, when measured against their equivalents on the American Christian Right, they were utterly insignificant. Hal Lindsey’s 1970 The Late Great Planet Earth, for example, sold 28 million copies in two decades.

He's right. We need a new word. Any suggestions?

Ideally, the new term should convey the ideas of weaponization and psychological warfare. Most of the theories we hear nowadays are disingenuous; the people who concoct them don't actually believe them. As always, I insist on recognizing the difference between left-wing conspiracy theories and the right-wing variety. The lefties are often wrong, but at least they (well, the best of them) understand the need for evidence and logic. The righties couldn't care less about evidence; they just like to get high on fear.

Whatever you may think of Robert Anton Wilson, he once offered some wise words on the topic of conspiracy theory.

However, I am profoundly suspicious about all conspiracy theories, including my own, because conspiracy buffs tend to forget the difference between a plausible argument and a real proof. Or between a legal proof, a proof in the behavioral sciences, a proof in physics, a mathematical or logical proof, or a parody of any of the above.
