Mike feels obliged to try and contradict our ODNI and Treasury and Mueller's report but if it's something Lin Wood craps into the atmosphere he will invoke suspense of disbelief to hear it out. What a weenie.

I guess he can't be a conspiracist without that mindset.

Personally I go to the roots of each conspiracy all the way to the tea leaves, to see how and who crafted it, and what were the outcomes. Mike just ignores all that having never in his career done an actual deep dive into the mainstream big conspiracies. If Portnoy likely hadn't got him that one article on Presidential fashion blogging, Mike's grift as a fake expert would never taken off. The guy is simply a con, and a bad one at that promoting QAnon slyly calling it a fun participatory experience when it is meant to get people angry and killed.

I agree My opinion on Mike based on what is visibly available and all that I've archived since I noticed his friends decided they could harass people off of platforms around October of last year:

His friends want to "burn it all down" as far as democracy is concerned and when I saw that his "research" consisted of posting as a now suspended "Qanon" account, with him telling people that it didn't matter if Q was real or not as long as it destroyed "liberals", as caesar sayok was sending out possibly explosive packages and after people took guns to a pizza place...his intentions became crystal clear. That he used Posobiec to boost his idea and his friends mostly still express similar ideas is a giveaway to what part of the funnel to extremism mike is useful for. I've yet to hear a testimonial by anyone he has delivered from the sort of sentiment he added to the violent rhetorical targeting that he claims he documented. He refuses to take or answer questions or define the derogatory terms (which he took directly from the alt right) he uses about the liberal left or anyone reporting on Trump circle corruption, which he mostly underrates as foolery. He tweeted almost verbatim with Louise influencers and Project Lincoln at times too. It's a case of documented record as are his threads saying that Lin Wood may be telling the truth about Hunter Biden....

Mike does run with actual Nazis, so...

His first interaction with me was finding out he had blocked me, and was attacking my kids from behind that block. While that in itself was creepy, it was it suicide trolling and constant support for 8Chan whenever another mass murderer came out of it. You'd think his standing up and protecting the cause of mass murder no one would ever listen to him again.
