—Hinkle[1]

“”I do everything for the clout. You will never see me do something not for the clout. That's the only way I operate.
—Hinkle[3][4][5]

Jackson Hinkle[note 1] is an American "MAGA communist" (i.e., Trump-loving tankie),[3][6] Lysenkoist (i.e., genetics denier),[7][8] Russian state media contributor,[9][10] LaRoucheite,[11][12] and failed political candidate.[13] Formerly a marketing specialist, he's applied his experience by rebranding himself several times in just a few years.[14] He started out in the environmentalist movement, particularly its subsidiary anti-nuclear movement.[15][16] After environmentalism, he shifted his focus to democratic socialism.[17] Now, MAGA communism. Today, he says environmentalism is "anti-human" and "green fascism" — probably meaning he disapproves.[18][19][20]

Most recently, he's taken to spreading inflammatory misinformation online. This most often takes the form of anti-Western,Wikipedia pro-Kremlin propaganda.[21][22][23] He especially utilizes Twitter to this end.[24][25][26] Under Elon Musk's ownership of Twitter, he's rewarded with as much engagement as possible.[27][28] His Twitter reach has expanded massively, particularly by October 2023, when his account was #1 by influence.[29][30] Despite this, Hinkle believes he is censored by Twitter, somehow, for "EXPOSING ZIONIST LIES".[31]

He was also a YouTuber, garnering some 300K subscribers.[note 2][32] That is until he was permanently banned in October 2023 for misinformation regarding the war in Ukraine, according to himself.[33] Although, it's possible he was banned for something entirely unrelated since his screenshot omitted the body text of the email he received from YouTube — and in his inability to keep a story straight, he claimed just three days later that he was actually banned for "telling the truth about the Israel-Palestine conflict".[34]

Hinkle is a fan of Andrew Tate, repeatedly defending him while Tate is the subject of a serious rape, organized crime, and human trafficking investigation.[35][36][37] After Ye West made antisemitic statements and spread a conspiracy theory that George Floyd did not die from police brutality (a claim Hinkle would later repeat himself),[38][39][40] Hinkle mischaracterized West as having merely said, "he loves everyone".[41][42] Hinkle even highlighted West and Nick Fuentes (a neo-Nazi) as allies on the subject of Vladimir Putin's Russia; he criticized Fuentes on other topics.[43][44][45] He often brands his political opponents as neo-Nazis, by the way, making this friendly attitude towards a few actual ones all the stranger.[46][47][6]

He personally dislikes anime,Wikipedia that is, cartoons produced in Japan. Naturally, as he is evidently an all-around authoritarian, that means that to him, it "is for pedophiles" and should be banned.[48][49] Despite this, he believes he is a "free speech absolutist".[50] On the brighter side, there is one thing he likes: national flag emojis.[citation NOT needed] His parents are disappointed by the turn he's taken politically such that they've taken to public feuding.[51][52][53]

Early activism[edit]

In the beginning, there was Hinkle, the San Clemente, California environmental activist. In March 2016, in high school, he founded the Team Zissou Environmental Organization (apparently, the name was "influenced by the Wes Anderson movie 'The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou'"), which did things like beach clean-ups and local lobbying.[16] He worked at The Water Effect (a project of The Ecology Center),[54] Clif Bar,[14] and Chooose (an environmental group based in Norway, oddly enough).[54]

Hinkle was featured in a 2018 Sierra Club film profiling more than a dozen young activists, alongside, e.g., David Hogg.Wikipedia[55] Like Hogg, Hinkle once led a youth protest in favor of gun control.[56] In statements to local media covering the protest, he called for "universal background checks,Wikipedia [that we have] a gun buyback program,Wikipedia that we have stricter legal magazine capacity limits, that gun owners attend gun safety classes, that we begin treating mental illness more effectively, that longer waiting periods are implemented (28 days), that private owners cannot resell their guns, that gun shows cannot sell guns, the banning of bump stocksWikipedia and trigger cranks,Wikipedia the requirement of licenses for all arms, upping minimum purchasing age to 21, the banning of assault rifles, the end of the boyfriend loophole,Wikipedia and that politicians stop taking money from the NRA."[57][58] That was once upon a time. Now, he tells us, "Gen Z is pro-gun."[59][60] Yet, he reported in 2018: "gun regulations are what the majority of students want to see in our school".[58]

He dedicated much of his environmental activism to opposing nuclear energy: he grew up near the defunct San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station. He commented in 2018: "I started getting older, learning about nuclear disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima in class had an effect on me. I was learning these things just a few miles from the San Onofre plant, and I began to worry that something similar could happen to us." He represented San Clemente Green, a local environmental group, at a congressional briefing regarding safety in nuclear waste storage.[16][61][14]

Hinkle in 2018, again, but more facial hair this time. (Whatcha gonna do... whatcha gonna do when they come for you?)

Hinkle's efforts eventually led him to run in the 2018 San Clemente City Council election[62] and then again in the 2019 special election triggered by the former mayor's death.[13] He formed an association, the progressive Orange County Students for City Council.[16][63][64] Other than environmental matters, affordable housing was another issue they focused on.[65] Though, in a candidate Q&A, Hinkle said he would oppose the construction of a homeless shelter across from a high school because it would "put our children at risk". As an alternative, he would "demand the county fund a regional solution outside of San Clemente".[66] In contrast to some of his rhetoric today, he said at a 2019 forum hosted by the San Clemente Chamber of Commerce (accredited by the United States Chamber of CommerceWikipedia[67]) that he would be "an advocate for small businesses and big businesses alike".[68]

Two more major issues during the election appear to have been the planned construction of a toll road, which Hinkle opposed, and an effort to reopen a shuttered city hospital.[69] The local conservatives decided the more important issue to talk about was Hinkle's past Facebook comments supporting the legalization of drugs and sex work. They dug up an old photo of him being arrested in D.C., where he protested against inaction towards climate change.[69][70] They resurfaced an incident where he took a knee during the national anthemWikipedia at his high school graduation, as well as... a fictional home movie where he pretended to shoot a gun at someone. Hinkle, in response, jokingly apologized for growing his beard out.[69] The local firefighters, evidently unfazed, lent Hinkle their endorsement. Their meeting with Hinkle led to a scandal in itself, sparking a sheriff's investigation into "a possible violation of government code."[71][72] Hinkle's run for city council was ultimately unsuccessful, receiving about 31% of the votes (which is still impressive for a guy fresh out of high school). The winner received 55% of the votes and was slightly better funded.[73][13] This string of events is a shining example of how rough politics can be, even on the "mere" local level.

After the city council election, in September 2020, he was a leader in protests over the death of Kurt Andras Reinhold, a black man who was college-educated yet ended up homeless and was killed by San Clemente deputies.[74][75] Although a lower-profile case, that protest would've occurred against the backdrop of wider Black Lives Matter protests across the United States about this time.[76]

His environmentalist views appear to have stemmed from his childhood hobby of surfing,[15] which also inspired his original — and pre-activist — artistic undertaking.[77][78] But, at some point, he went from surfing the waves to surfing the Web. Then his view became: "environmentalism is anti-human."[18][79] That brings us to his next phase...

MAGA communism[edit]

The Communist Party USA, which Hinkle has encouraged followers to join in the past (though to a cold reception),[80][81] has long used patriotic symbols and shibboleths.[82][83]
“”Marxism, historically, has always been conservative.
—Hinkle[6]
“”We as communists want to unite with MAGA voters, and finish the job of Donald Trump. Which is, you know, uprooting liberalism from America and getting the globalists out of the MAGA movement.
—Hinkle[6]
“”It is communism. It's common tradition, these are the things we should be supporting — viewing the world through the lens of dialectical materialism ... combating these major institutions, the monopolies, Wall Street, the city of London.
—Hinkle[6]

Sometime after his stretch as an environmental activist (which he apparently thinks is a "synthetic leftist" position now[6]) and his stint as a Bernie Sanders supporter,[17][84] Hinkle began promoting "MAGA communism". He even appeared on One America News Network and Tucker Carlson's show on Fox News to do so.[3][85][6] What the hell is MAGA communism, you ask? It's essentially a spin-off of "patriotic socialism", a deviation from Marxist-Leninist socialist patriotism.Wikipedia If taken seriously, it could be interpreted as national communism.Wikipedia

As the name suggests, MAGA communism involves supporting right-wing billionaire Donald Trump for some unknown purportedly communistic reason. MAGA communists also argue that leftists and liberals aren't revolutionary the way Trump voters are.[6][86] If you feel trolled right now, that might be the point. The entire crux of this supposed ideology seems to be "owning the libs".Wikipedia But, one can imagine conservatives feeling somewhat trolled by this rhetoric as well — the host he spoke with on OAN seemed to have mixed feelings about the whole thing.[6]

A flippant way to understand it would be to ask, "What if Russian internet trolling tactics became their own ideology?" The answer: MAGA communism. Hinkle's bizarre interpretation of Marxism, though, does have at least one source other than that: Caleb Maupin, an employee of Russian state media, is a Marxist activist whom Hinkle has directly quoted on subjects like wealth and economic exploitation before.[87] A read into the ideological viewpoints of the two finds that Hinkle's views deviate from Maupin's, even if he originally drew inspiration from him. Although Maupin has supported "patriotic socialism" and "socialism with American characteristics", he never seems to have gotten on board with the "MAGA communism" thing. Maupin's beliefs could best be summarized as "admiration for, and aspiration to make the United States more like, the People's Republic of China".[88][89] That doesn't really square with Donald Trump's foreign policy, such as his trade war with China,Wikipedia[90][91] which Hinkle appears shy to comment on.

Hinkle would like you to know that through the lens of his interpretation of Marxism, the following professions "are not working class": academics, teachers, social workers, engineers, managers, nurses, and Netflix writers.[92] After a few minutes of contemplation, he added: "Podcasters are not working class either."[93] Some other people whom he believes are not working hard enough: women.[94]

Russia and Ukraine[edit]

Hinkle in 2022, bringing out his inner Steven Crowder.
“”Russia does not want to invade Ukraine. Russia's not going to invade Ukraine.
—Hinkle, right before Russia invaded Ukraine[95]:1:20
“”Uh, we never said that there was never going to be an invasion, and anyone who says that is just, again, lying.
—Hinkle, right after[95]:1:31
“”I'll vote for whoever promises to cede all of Ukraine to Putin.
—Hinkle[96]
“”Why is Kyle calling this an invasion, when it's a peacekeeping mission?
— Hinkle[97]

In 2023, Hinkle was in a romantic relationship with Anna Linnikova,Wikipedia who was Miss Russia in 2022[98][99] and whom one may reasonably presume is a Russian honeypot.Wikipedia She reportedly broke up with Hinkle in late 2023 and called him a "narcissistic manipulator".[100] Some Russian nationalists commented it was "a shame" that she was with an American.[101] Early in 2023, the two stayed in a luxury hotel, the Four Seasons Hotel at Surfside, Florida.[98][102] One commentator pointed out this would have cost them roughly $14,000 in the cheapest possible scenario for the seven-day booking.[102] They went "driving tanks in Russia" together in September 2023.[103] He spoke at the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian FederationWikipedia in October 2023.[104]

He blames Ukraine for Russia's 2022 invasion and has repeatedly praised Vladimir Putin. Hinkle claimed that Zelenskyy is "responsible for every death in the Ukraine war".[98][105] In March 2022, he spoke in front of a gigantic, crudely-made Abraham Lincoln bust at a Center for Political Innovation (CPI) event supporting Russia's invasion of Ukraine.[106] At another CPI event later that year, flags for the Donetsk People's Republic and the People's Republic of China were carried around by some people wearing red berets. They also held a sign with the "Z" symbol displayed by Russian military vehicles early into the war.[107][108] This time, their esteemed convention received the honor of being attended by Pepper Coyote, the furry musician behind the song No Cock Like Horse Cock.[109][110]

In October 2022, he feigned innocent curiosity about Volodymyr Zelenskyy's whereabouts while a conspiracy theory regarding this was spreading online; claims by pro-Russian sources at this time pushed the narrative that Zelenskyy had fled to "a bunker in Poland".[111][112] He deemed Zelenskyy's policy that the Ukrainian government would recognize Christmas as occurring on December 25 rather than January 7 as "Satanic".[113] The War on Christmas has opened yet another front — will it ever end?

Hinkle also spoke at a February 2023 "Rage Against the War Machine" rally alongside several other fringe figures like those from the LaRouche movement and Mises Caucus.[114][115][116] The rally was absurd, given its featuring unambiguously pro-war speakers, such as Hinkle himself. A counter-protest featured signs reading "rage against the Russian invasion!" and "Jackson Hinkle likes war and mass graves as long as Russia is on the offense". Hinkle tweeted his response: "Long live Putin!".[117] Shortly after that, he gloated about a transgender foreign volunteer for Ukraine receiving an injury from Russian shelling, calling her "it" in response.[118][119] That kind of rhetoric is not out of character for him, as he's called the LGBT community "pedophile-ridden".[120]

Throughout April 2023, in line with Russian propaganda narratives, he repeatedly downplayed, misrepresented, and denied the facts of the Bucha massacre,Wikipedia a mass killing committed against Ukrainian civilians by Russian soldiers during the war.[121][29][122] A December 2022 assessment by the United Nations verified that at least seventy-three civilians were killed by Russian troops in Bucha during this event, though this may be a significant undercount as they were "in the process of corroborating an additional 105 alleged killings."[123] A separate assessment by Ukraine claimed 458 dead, "nearly all" civilians.[124]

In July 2023, he appeared on Piers Morgan's TalkTV Piers Morgan Uncensored show to defend Putin and Russia regarding the war; Hinkle claimed that the media was lying about Ukraine and compared it to media coverage of COVID-19.[125] In August 2023, he shared an altered photo of a Nigerien militant, claiming they were going to go fight for Russia in Ukraine. The photo, which showed an African man's head pasted onto a Russian man's body (with visibly white-skinned shoulders), apparently originated from pro-Russian Telegram channels.[126]

In September 2023, he appeared on RT (Russian state-run media) to defend Russell Brand,Wikipedia who had then been accused of sexual assault by multiple women,[127] and, again, Putin's war.[10] To other Russian state media around the same time, he took time to heap praise on Moscow — the city, where he had evidently been visiting. He stated it was "chic", i.e., stylish, compared to New York City, Miami, Los Angeles, and London.[9] No word on whether Kyiv is also chic. It may have fared better had it not been repeatedly struck by Russian missiles.Wikipedia

As a result of his activities regarding Ukraine and Russia, the Ukrainian Myrotvorets CenterWikipedia (or just Myrotvorets; Ukrainian for "peacemaker") labeled Hinkle as a "criminal" engaged in "spreading Kremlin propaganda for the purpose of profit". They stated he was listed this way "as a statement about the commission by this citizen of deliberate acts against the national security of Ukraine, peace, the security of humanity and international law and order, as well as other offenses." This entry contains the hilarious Cyrillization of Hinkle's name, "Hinkl Dzhekson", which as far as can be told was made up by Myrotvorets.[128]

Myrotvorets's website essentially keeps a list of people who they consider enemies of Ukraine, in this way, and that includes both propagandists like Hinkle and actual belligerents. There is a narrative, also repeated by Hinkle (who spread false rumors that Elon Musk and Pope Francis were on the list as well), that this list amounts to a "kill list".[129][130][131] Even if it may not literally be intended as one, it's not completely implausible that it may be informally used to that end — Ukraine is a country at war. One case cited as proof of this is the killing of Darya Dugina,Wikipedia the daughter of Aleksandr Dugin. There is a dispute, however, as to whether that killing was even committed by Ukraine at all. Competing claims state that it was committed by the Russian government or Russian insurrectionists.[132][133][134] Another example was Stanislav Rzhitsky, a Russian commander who appeared on the site (because he allegedly killed about two dozen civilians) and was later killed.[135] Although these individuals appeared on the site before death, it's difficult to conclusively say the site had something to do with their death, absent any direct evidence. Also, anyone could have independently observed their pro-Russian activities without viewing the database.

Israel and Palestine[edit]

“”Vladimir Putin has a very good working relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu. I'm actually happier that, for the sake of the multipolar world order, that [Netanyahu] is in power right now compared to the previous coalitionWikipedia in Israel. Xi Jinping of the Communist Party of China has a good working relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu — better than the previous coalition.
—Hinkle[136]

As with many pundits who are off their rocker, the guy can land a good point now and then. In his criticism of Ben Shapiro's stance on Israel, he resurfaced a 2002 Townhall article (titled "Enemy 'civilian casualties' ok by me") written by Shapiro, who callously argued civilian casualties are somehow no big deal. This was in the context of Shapiro seeking sympathy for Israeli civilians who were killed by Hamas. Hinkle correctly identified Shapiro as a hypocrite on the issue.[137] But it takes one to know one, doesn't it? A year prior, Hinkle could be seen arm-in-arm with Shapiro's employee and close political ally, Jordan Peterson.[138] In fairness to Shapiro, though, in 2018, denounced that column of his, though his sincerity is up to your interpretation.

When the bruised, elderly peace activist Yocheved Lifschitz was released by Hamas, she gave interviews about her kidnapping and time in captivity. Hinkle quoted her only selectively, omitting statements that reflected poorly on Hamas.

On the same topic, however, Hinkle spread misinformation denying the nature of Hamas's attacks on Israeli civilians.Wikipedia[note 3] Hinkle essentially praised Hamas's handling of Israeli hostages, selectively posting comments from Yocheved Lifschitz, an elderly peace activist whom Hamas took hostage and then later released.[139][140][141] As you might imagine, the Islamic fundamentalist terrorist organization that kidnapped this woman (and some two hundred others) was not as entirely kind as he portrayed them to be. What he completely failed to mention was other comments made by Lifschitz, such as: "I went through hell" and "masses swarmed our houses, beat people, and some were taken hostage… They didn't care if they were young or old. It was extremely painful."[142][143] She also said that she was beaten with sticks on her way to Gaza.[144][145]

He also made posts that falsely indicated Turkey and Iran were imminently going to enter the 2023 war between Israel and Palestine. The former claim hinged on a fabricated quote by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.[146][147][148] He shared a completely fabricated "White House press release" regarding aid that was purportedly announced on the very first day of Hamas's early October incursion.[26][149] On two occasions, he shared years-old photos, passing them off as if they were the 2023 attacks in Syria.[150][151] Near the end of October, he gave a laundry list of claims, purportedly citing Haaretz, a major Israeli newspaper. The paper replied to his claims directly, simply stating that his post "contains blatant lies about the atrocities committed by Hamas on October 7. It has absolutely no basis in Haaretz's reporting, then or since".[24][152][153] Yet, Hinkle would like you to pay him $3 monthly in exchange for the privilege of reading his misleading posts.[154][155] Possibly as a response to Hinkle, Twitter began demonetizing posts on the platform fact-checked by Community Notes.[24][156]

Dead baby photo incident[edit]

Hinkle reposted a screenshot from an "AI image detector" (Optic's AI or Not tool) as evidence that a photo of an Israeli baby who had been burned to death was actually fake.[25][157] Subsequently, an expert in AI image manipulation, Hany Farid,Wikipedia picked this claim apart. Farid pointed out a number of elements in the photo an AI would find difficult to recreate: he commented that the "structural consistencies, the accurate shadows, the lack of artifacts we tend to see in AI — that leads me to believe it’s not even partially AI generated". He also added that these AI image detectors are "black box" systems that are not always reliable, and "you can't rely on just one tool or one test… That's not how it works. It's not CSI."[note 4][25][158] Ultimately, even the company behind the AI or Not tool stated that the result was a false positive. They cited image compression and the pixelation of the infant's name tag as causes for this.[159]

However, Business Insider Spain and Italian fact-checking website Facta.news (an IFCN affiliate) conducted their own tests several days after the post by Hinkle, using the exact same AI detection tool on the same photo, and yielded the opposite result.[160][161] Yet, if an actor like Hinkle declares that the image is AI-generated, primes the audience with unreliable proof, and they believe him based on it, they might discover aspects of the photo that they interpret as further evidence, even if there is some other explanation for these details. This could be a result of confirmation bias or apophenia. In this case, a common example was a perceived distortion of a hand in the photo,[162] even though this particular appearance could've been explained by the elastic glove simply fitting poorly on the hand.

"Whoever loves money never has enough" — Ecclesiastes 5:10, NIV.

In a follow-up bit of misinformation (not by Hinkle, although he gave Internet trolls the spark they needed), a photo of a puppy dog was claimed to have been the original from which the charred baby was purportedly generated or edited. In fact, the original user posting this photo admitted it was fake. A closer analysis of the two versions of the photo found that the image with the burned infant was consistent with a real image, and the one with a puppy dog had image artifacts consistent with a manipulated photo.[159][163][160]

Syria[edit]

“”WE STAND WITH PUTIN, XI, KIM JONG UN, LUKASHENKO, BASHAR AL ASSAD AND BUKELE
—Hinkle[164]

In 2021, he spread denialist conspiracy theories about the Douma chemical attack,Wikipedia a chlorine gas attack committed by the government of Bashar al-Assad.[165][166] Merely days later, he was awarded the "Serena Shim Award for Uncompromised Integrity in Journalism".[167][168] That award is managed by AIPAC — no, not that AIPAC! The Association for Investment in Popular Action Committees,Wikipedia a pro-Assad organization,[169] is known to hand these awards (alongside, sometimes, a cash reward that could be between roughly $2,500 to $20,000) out like candy to people willing to toe the line of the Syrian government.[170][171] As a Twitch streamer, he prominently displayed their award in the background of his set.[172]

He accused Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of supporting "Al Qaeda terrorists in Syria (Idlib province) against the Assad government." This earned him the following response from Omar: "Wtf are you talking about?"[173] Hinkle then told her: "when I join Congress I will immediately introduce a house motion to have you extradited to Syria over charges of terrorism."[174] About a week later, he played a clip of Bashar al-Assad denouncing the freedom to choose one's own religion as "neoliberalism". Seemingly, Hinkle approved of this assertion.[175]

On October 21, 2023, he referred to Assad as a "hero".[5][176] The next day, he again denied the Assad government's chemical weapons attack(s). He stated: "Assad didn't gas his own people. Those were CIA Bellingcat lies."[177] This is in contradiction to the report by the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical WeaponsWikipedia (OPCW), the result of a two-year investigation that concluded the Syrian government's forces killed 43 civilians in a chlorine gas attack.[166] This time, he cited an article written by Aaron Maté in Max Blumenthal's The Grayzone blog as purported evidence.[177]

Maté, Blumenthal, and The Grayzone have all previously received the aforementioned "Serena Shim Award" for their Assad-favorable misreporting, just like Hinkle.[171] Twitter's Community Notes fact-checked Hinkle. The note said: "The United Nations and Human Rights Watch found 'clear and convincing evidence' that chemical weapons used in Syria were delivered by 'weapon systems known and documented to be only in possession off, [sic] and used by, the Syrian government armed forces.'"[177]

Curiously, Hinkle once surfed with then-congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard in 2019,[178][179] before his shift to "MAGA communism" had taken place. As it happens, Gabbard is also known to have personally met with Bashar al-Assad in 2017 on what she called a "fact-finding mission".[180][181]

China[edit]

"All reactionaries are paper tigers. In appearance, the reactionaries are terrifying, but in reality they are not so powerful. From a long-term point of view, it is not the reactionaries but the people who are really powerful." — Mao Zedong[182]
“”There is no genocide of Uyghurs in China. There is no genocide of Boers in South Africa.
—Hinkle[183]
“”To all the conservatives who think Taiwan is a country & want war with China: You are doing Soros' dirty work, congratulations.
—Hinkle[184]
“”If Communism[sic] doesn't "work" better than liberalism (capitalism), why is China surpassing the US economy & the worldwide leader in alleviating poverty?
—Hinkle[185]

Hinkle pours effusive praises on China and, to be more precise, its government. Among these are statements that China has "exceptional leadership",[186] is "eternal",[187] "upholding masculinity",[188] "cleaner than America",[189] "more free than Australia",[190] and "100% communist".[191] Other Trump supporters who disagree with him on that are apparently "infiltrators who stand with CIA PEDOPHILES".[192] One of his other praises is rooted in his claim that China supposedly "outright ban[s] any and all LGBT propaganda", e.g., "depictions of gay and trans people on television".[193][194] That's despite the fact that one of mainland China's most popular television and Internet personalities is transgender.[195][196][197] There are even trans-focused clinics there; state-run media celebrated the 2021 opening of one such clinic focused on young people in Shanghai.[198]

He pretty much accuses anyone who disagrees with him of trying to spark a war between the US and China, despite the improbability of this ever happening. One such accusation was against GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, who had given his gun nut idea that we should "open a branch of the NRA in Taiwan, put an AR-15 in the hands of every family, and train them how to use it. That'll give Xi Jinping a taste of American exceptionalism."[199] The reference to the NRA makes it clear that the intention is to deter, rather than cause, a war: a common saying among pro-gun advocates in the US misquotes a Japanese admiral on this subject. By this (incorrect) account, he supposedly warned against invading the mainland United States because of the frequency of civilian gun ownership there.[200] Hinkle commented in response (with scare quotes in all the right places): "The premise of his entire campaign is to decouple the US from China, establish a new Sino-Russian split, ban US businesses from doing business with China, protect Taiwan from the 'CCP,' and empower the US to go after China's 'human rights abuses.'"[201] Another was Breaking Points with Krystal and Saagar.Wikipedia Hinkle stated in 2021, "Breaking Points is trying to sell a war against China over ABSURD LIES about Taiwan & slave labor."[202]

Hinkle's post highlights a Community Note which cites, after its writer had been primed by the AI detection tool, the "distorted fingers" as one reason the photo must have been AI-generated. In fact, one could likely recreate such an appearance oneself using medical gloves, of that sort, that are too small for your own hands. The Community Note was later removed because it was incorrect.
