Michael Flynn said today that covid was a conspiracy to control the American people and divert attention away from stealing the election. He said it is not a problem in the rest of world, and he doesnt worry about it because he has been taking hydroxychloroquin for 30 years.

(4,608 posts)when wondering how someone that high up could be so nuts. Apparently, he was a normal guy until he was passed over for a promotion/position he really wanted and that broke him. He was bitter and angry and it snowballed into the crazy he is now.
Wish I could remember the article or even the publication.

(28,340 posts)schizophrenia. Of course all kinds of people go through life believing all kinds of wacky crap - but it's somewhat uncommon (or rather it used to be somewhat uncommon) to see someone who was able to function at a high enough level to accomplish the milestones of a 3-star general to suddenly start to regularly and vehemently spout such blatantly, off-the-rails, nuttier-than-a-shithouse-squirrell kind of stuff at this point in his life.
Usually, that behavior would be a sign that something has gone seriously haywire with his health. However, in our current climate of delusion on such a MASSIVE scale, it seems almost everyone now knows at least one person in our own lives who has somehow moved from functioning human into . . . well . . . . . whatever is happening to all of them now.
