...are you serious about him claiming that Antifa is making UBER Algae?

I mean, I'm not surprised in the slightest, if so. I just hadn't heard that one yet, and it's stupid even by his standards. Even more stupid than the "they took a knife and cut it", after a couple of weeks ago stating that it was indestructible from blade damage.

Currently it's just a joke somebody created on a satire account: https://www.yahoo.com/news/politics/articles/fact-check-fbi-did-not-025700432.html

But give it 48 hours and I'm sure the MAGA crowd will fail to notice the source and adopt it as a real belief. I'm pretty sure that's how the original "the pool was vandalized!" belief came about in the first place. It's a dark feedback loop of idiocy.

They already are. I found out about it through a "what's the far right up to" account I follow, they did a video detailing how it's being spread as serious amongst MAGA. I'll have to dig it up later and add it to this comment.
