Wow, I haven't been keeping up with MIA outside the music, but I feel like I'm missing a few steps between her pro-immigration music and endorsing far right US politicians.
I mean, her dad was a politician turned violent revolutionary....
A lot of mental disorders are hereditary and pop up around your 30s, maybe 40s.
Which sounds like what's happening:
Well, today marks a dramatic shift in tone by M.I.A. “Trump is going to ride America through the most challenging 4 years coming,” she tweeted, adding her wish for Trump “pulling out weed” as president. “RFK will inherit America when God is ready to replant and rebuild it righteously.”
Over the past few years, M.I.A. has received backlash for her controversial statements – from comparing InfoWars host Alex Jones’s falsehoods about the Sandy Hook shooting to celebrities “pushing” COVID-19 vaccines and suggesting the latter, too, should “pay for lying”. She then clarified her stance on COVID vaccines, saying she’s “not really” an anti-vaxxer.
In June, M.I.A. launched Ohmni, her own clothing brand that features a “tin foil hat” which claims to block 5G waves from entering one’s body.
Ohmni offers items such as “Protency boxers” which claim to “block electromagnetic frequencies” and boost fertility as well as a “tin foil hat” which allegedly deflects “electromagnetic waves such as Wi-Fi & 5G with up to 99.999% shielding effectiveness.”
M.I.A. talked about the clothing line while appearing as a guest on Infowars. While there, she explained to Jones that the clothing line is designed to protect wearers from nanoparticles and discussed a scrapped album, her supposed “anti-vaxx” views, and being “cancelled”.
Crazy religious predictions, literally selling tinfoil hats and magic underwear, covid conspiracies, going on Alex Jones...
Doesn’t toxoplasmosis make people do weird shit when it infects their brains? It would be interesting to find a causal link in all this conspiracy antivax bullshit.
