Does it surprise you that Plantations were the go to spots for those aiming to overture the 2020 election?

It does not surprise me because I figure plantations were the go to spots for those planning to overthrow the Government during the civil war. Lin Wood resonantly said that he hosted numerous election conspiracy theorists  at his plantation in South Carolina. His guests included Sidney Powell, Mike Flynn and the CEO of Cyber Ninjas. Cheers!

    Years and years ago. :)

    EDIT:  Check it out at 3:58 - that was the part used for the puffed rice (not wheat) cereal commercials.

    Quaker Puffed Rice: Shot from Guns!

    Advertising is insidious. For a perfect example, check the section on Salem cigarettes in this post. In the same way as my parents’ generation could not listen to the William Tell Overture without shouting “Hi-o Silver!”, I am unable to listen to the 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky without thinking of Quaker Puffed Rice.

    What's the difference between a "plantation" and a "farm"?

    Technically the difference between a plantation and a farm is roughly 400 acres. But I think that there is a bigger difference. Back in the day plantations were usally owed by old white men that wanted to keep people enslaved but farms usally weren't. The people that met at Lin Woods plantation also wanted to keep people enslaved and under Trump's thumb so I think it is appropriate that they met at a plantation and not a farm. Cheers!
