The worst part of this story is that as far as I know despite talking to the media multiple times she never explained what the fuck she was talking about.

    Ok, so there are people on Facebook who believe that many celebrities and politicians are being replaced with doubles, like robots or clones or some shit. I am not even kidding, it’s a mainstream enough opinion on there that you will see it expressed in comments without having to look for it.

    I wonder if she is one of those Facebook people.

    Yeah I’m a skeptic and enjoy debunking conspiracy theories so I’ve actually encountered this in the wild quite a bit.

    It’s a bunch of people who think Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) and They Live (1988) were documentaries with a little good old fashioned Illuminati nonsense mixed in for good measure. It’s as if someone watched part of a David Icke video once then tried to describe his beliefs to someone else from memory. It’s just such a painfully unoriginal conspiracy theory for people with TikTok attention spans.

    I don't find that explanation satisfactory. This is just minimizing not explaining. I was well aware of this cover story when I made my comment.

    Oh I don't doubt that she's probably doing it to avoid making her legal issues worse, but that doesn't help explain anything.

    BTW the clue was "despite talking to the media multiple times..."

    Edit: In fact I think the reason she can't expand further is because either she would implicate herself further or she would open herself up to slander charges.

    For someone who doesn't want to talk about it she sure keeps talking about it constantly.

    Now you're the one speculating. Unfortunately neither of us will know the truth. We're going to have to agree to disagree.
