Kim Dotcom is recovering in hospital after reportedly suffering a "serious stroke" earlier this month.

Kim Dotcom is recovering in hospital after reportedly suffering a stroke earlier this month. Dotcom was taken to a local hospital on November 7 and then rushed to a regional hospital for treatment. A post to X in Dotcom’s name on Monday informed followers that after suffering “a serious stroke” his recovery is now in the hands of “the best health professionals.”

      Why?

      “Dotcom founded the Internet Party in New Zealand in 2014, promoting digital rights, privacy, and government transparency.”

      If someone is working these values in with them.

        If you believe Kim Dotcom is promoting those values you are a complete sucker. He consistently advocates for more authoritarian control over the Internet, not less. Plus:

        Dotcom has repeatedly spread anti-Ukrainian falsehoods, and Russian government propaganda.

        And

        In an August 2024 Twitter post, Dotcom quoted passages from The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, a discredited antisemitic text purporting to prove the existence of a Jewish conspiracy for world domination. That October, he promoted the neo-Nazi propaganda film Europa: The Last Battle.

        From the article, quoting him on Twitter just before the stroke:

        @KimDotcom How did the deep state communists think that they could get away with their bullshit? When the economy is flopping nobody cares about media lies and celebrity endorsements. Americans pay much more for the basics and they want to stop the bleeding from their wallets. It’s over!

        @KimDotcom Europe will be liberated next. This is your end @vonderleyen This is your end @Bundeskanzler This is your end@EmmanuelMacron This is your end @Keir_Starmer This is your end @ZelenskyyUa You are terrible. Get lost.

        So conspiracy theorist and hate monger at the very least. That didn’t inspire me to get to know him further.
