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.
Our state is captured by the oil and gas industry.
The FBI was literally invented because the bombings/murder of Osage Indians to get oil rights was being covered up by state politicians and police.
The OERB funds a ton of science education, and they do not want you taking about climate change. They are required by the state to contribute to education, so they do this buy running fancy workshops where they give supplies to educators (like, I got thousands in dollars worth of chemistry equipment - this is a big deal when my supply closet had baking soda that would have been expired when my dad was in high school…) They teach you there that fracking doesn’t cause earthquakes, that the warming climate can be explained by Milkanovitch cycles, etc etc.
Oklahomans aren’t given the education the need to not fall for this shit, and it’s on purpose. I would not be surprised if the oil/gas industry was involved in spreading the weather weapons conspiracy. Oklahoma has always been a playground for wealthy oilmen.
