The most recent conspiracy theories – I came across this while reading the America magazine website – and America is the USA Jesuit publication.
Jim McDermott SJ, had a column there entitled Trump, Clinton, My Jesuit Illuminati Overlords and the Iowa Caucus where he describes doing a google search about Trump and put the following in the search engine donald trump jesuit and the highest ranked posting on google has this near the top (it's a website called reddit)
"Jesuitical right-wing fascism"? "The sons of Loyola"?
This is from McDermott's America column –
I know, it’s just one crazy link. Except it’s the one ranked highest by Google.
It is also not the only post in the top 10 with a similar message. In fact only two of the top ten links about Donald Trump and Jesuit don’t have something to do with the apparent Jesuit-Trump conspiracy that no one has had the courtesy to let me know we are in on. (If you only have time to sample one piece from this magical universe, may I suggest the first few minutes of this YouTube post about why, during the “Jesuit Paris Attacks,” a woman believes Donald Trump got switched out by his clone. It begins “I was watching Fox News this morning.”)
There's more. Here's what McDermott found when he put in Cruz's name with Jesuit –
But others again leaned heavily into the same basic swirling pot of crazy: “Satanic Freemason Jesuit Ted Cruz Master of the Second Veil Hand Sign Exposed.” “Trump/Ted Cruz Ticket; Illuminati and Jesuits.” “Ted Cruz—Jesuit Coadjutor.”
With google – the world at your fingertips.
