‘Satanic’ Georgia Tablets Despised By Conspiracy Theorists Bombed

Part of a Georgia monument despised by right-wing conspiracy theorists was reduced to rubble on Wednesday morning by an explosion, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation said.

 

The bomb attack targeted the Georgia Guidestones, a set of mysterious, 19-foot tall tablets inscribed with messages that appear to offer advice on how humanity should recover from an apocalyptic event. Pictures of the site on social media appeared to show that one of the monument’s four main tablets had been destroyed in the bombing.

 

The blast was carried out by “unknown individuals” around 4 a.m., according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. A local TV station reported that nearby residents heard an explosion-like sound around the same time.

 

The Guidestones, which sit in a field in rural Elberton, GA, have been a focus of attention for conspiracy theorists since they were erected in 1979 at the behest of an unknown patron. The tablets are inscribed with a series of admonitions, including a call to keep the global population under 500 million people — advice that conspiracy theorists like InfoWars chief Alex Jones have taken as proof of an elite plot to kill off most of humanity.

 

While the guidestones were targets of on-and-off criticism from pastors for decades, fearful that they would become the site of Satanic worship, the attacks on the guidestones reached a new fervor in the past decade. Kandiss Taylor, a former far-right Republican gubernatorial candidate, tried to turn the guidestones into a campaign issue before her primary defeat earlier this year. Taylor recorded a video of herself driving to Elberton to “confront” the guidestones, and vowed to issue an executive order if elected to order them destroyed.

 

Taylor appeared to welcome the bombing in a tweet on Wednesday.

 

“God is God all by Himself,” Taylor tweeted. “He can do ANYTHING He wants to do. That includes striking down Satanic Guidestones.”

 

This isn’t the first time the guidestones have been targeted by vandals, though the attacks have never reached this level before. In the past, vandals have graffitied the guidestones with messages about the “New World Order” and the devil. As a result of those earlier crimes, a security camera was mounted near the guidestones.

Hmm... who else blows up old artifacts that don't agree with their religious views?

CRT isn't taught in high school. Thank goodness Ron saved the kids from something that doesn't happen.

 

If only he felt this way about school shootings...

 

 

 

The very idea of one of our two major parties trying to ban *ideas* they perceive as scary is extremely problematic.

Even separate from this, Florida is the Republican frontlines for trying to destroy public education and privatize it so they can teach whatever crazy-a$$ ideas they feel like.

 

Making the country stupider is not good for it but it's a core part of the GOP platform.

I don’t understand why people think they look badass with a gun. Only a wuss needs a gun to kill something. Real hunters use crossbows, spears, or knives to kill their prey.

Here is a suspect:

Georgia’s Republican primary for governor has revolved around Donald Trump’s attempts to oust Gov. Brian Kemp (R) over Kemp’s refusal to break election laws in the aftermath of the 2020 election. But last week, third-place candidate Kandiss Taylor tried to inject an issue of her own into the race, introducing a plan to blow up four giant granite tablets in northeast Georgia she sees as symbols of Satan worship.

On May 2, Taylor unveiled a draft executive order related to the Georgia Guidestones, a set of enormous rocks in the city of Elberton. Taylor’s proposed order is simple: “Demolish the Georgia Guidestones.”

 

 

 

Quote

 

Now Taylor, who worked as a school teacher before becoming the far-right’s favorite gubernatorial candidate, is hoping to turn those ideas about the Guidestones’ sinister purpose to her political advantage. After Taylor released her proposed executive order, Wood, the defamation attorney turned conspiracy theorist, said demolishing the Guidestones should be a “litmus test” for Kemp and other candidates in the primary.

Taylor has kept up her own attacks on the Guidestones since her campaign first proposed demolishing them, pointing out in a recent Telegram post that the Guidestones are roughly 666 miles from the United Nations headquarters in New York City—an ominous fact to the conspiracy-minded.

“It’s no coincidence,” Taylor wrote. “They must be destroyed.”

Elberton lies in a conservative corner of Georgia, in a heavily Republican congressional district. But the city isn’t eager to part with what it sees as a key tourist attraction and a celebration of its granite industry. In an email to The Daily Beast, Elberton mayor Daniel Graves brushed off Taylor’s suggestion that the Guidestones be demolished, saying she should focus on celebrating the city’s granite production instead of “some outlandish conspiracy theories she watched on YouTube.”

“There is only one community in the world that could build such a monument,” Graves wrote.” And that is what we celebrate here and will continue to celebrate long after her campaign is forgotten.”
