In Oklahoma, a domestic militia calling itself “Veterans on Patrol” is systematically targeting weather radars. Their leader, Michael Lewis Arthur Meyer, claims the military is controlling the weather through Doppler radar systems and that these machines are part of a divine affront — a “weather weapon” — that is “mocking God Himself.”

He’s encouraging his followers to sabotage these radars under an operation he calls “Leaning Tower.” This isn’t just fringe paranoia: it’s part of a growing anti-reality insurgency that threatens our democracy itself.

    Strictly speaking they aren’t our enemies. Mentally ill as fuck? Absolutely. But our enemy is the one that manipulates these people. Stirring up their mental illness and turning them on us. Believe me our enemy is watching comfortably as we injure ourselves. Republicans eagerly egging it on as it suits their own ends. And Democrats not really caring to do enough about it.
