Sheila Zilinsky: ‘Every NFL Stadium Is A FEMA Camp In Hiding’

On a recent radio broadcast, radical right-wing commentator Sheila Zilinsky use the controversy over athletes kneeling during the national anthem to warn that the NFL is working with the government to brainwash Americans so they can easily be herded into FEMA prison camps housed inside NFL stadiums.

“I told you the NFL was out of the bowels of hell and nothing more than a propaganda machine,” she said, “with mindless sheep who are brainwashed every night of the week with the alpha, gamma, theta waves, the delta waves lulling people into trances, slipping people into mass hypnosis. That’s declassified, folks. High-level mind control projects have been exposed, it’s on record. TV, that noise box, is the most disgusting invention ever made.”

“I think the NFL is pure evil,” she continued. “It’s anti-Christian, anti-family, anti-patriot, anti-constitutional, anti-gun, anti-American for sure.”

“These new NFL policies are straight out of the Pol Pot regime,” Zilinsky said. “In some stadiums, women can’t even enter into the same entrance as men and children. Talk about your FEMA camp training. That’s right, the NFL is an extension of the TSA, the DHS, the globalist agenda and FEMA.”

“Every NFL stadium is a FEMA camp in hiding,” she continued. “The American public is being conditioned to the fact that the state owns your body and your freedoms … The NFL stadiums are going to be staging areas for martial law and it’s all a part of the conditioning process.”

by the military to be more patriotic. If that hadn't happened the whole "take a knee" issue never would have come up.

While I've never been a fan of any sports, this is such total nonsense. Yeah, I can think disparagingly of those who think that how their favorite team is doing is more important than anything else, but this isn't really that new a phenomenon. Throughout history most people haven't been well educated or paying a lot of attention to what I might think are important things. Most of them have been too busy just staying alive.

In any case, the notion that stadiums are FEMA camps waiting to happen is so patently stupid that my potted fern is clearly smarter than this person.

Oh, and if she thinks the NFL is anti-Christian she hasn't been paying any attention to the overt prayer groups and Christian evangelists who run rampant throughout the league.

the real sorrow of this is that these kind of statements are being normalized in what used to be mainly a rational society.

No real spoilers here other than the comment that sports stadiums played a part in the movie.
She just added a rant against what she sees as social accommodations at odds with her small, selfish worldview.

proving that America's founding principles are alive and well.

Reminds me of a group of seditious Texans who plotted, or at least promised, armed, violent "secession," from the U.S., including the need to murder of any policing authorities who got in their way, on CSPAN, aka public TV. The group included a congressman, I believe, who must have taken an oath on entering congress. Then they finished and went off to dinner or something.

From what I can find on this particular wingnut, she's probably flattered at getting mentioned by Right Wing Watch.
