Author of this post has no idea what they're talking about. Apache Web Server has nothing to do with it. This appears to be a badly misinformed conspiracy theorist... I think this is a QAnon discussion board?
Yeah, it's a bunch of misinformed people talking QAnon all day over there. The post is nice and off base as you said, par for the course.
First comment:

>has to be planned. it would only be on msm if it was planned. it would only come right after warnings of a 'cyber pandemic' and 'dark winter' if it was planned. change my mind.

That's... an opinion. Is this satire?

It's not satire, it's a far right wing forum.
If I read the post correctly, is the poster saying that the big issue is the Apache HTTP webserver is vulnerable? As far as I understand it, Apache webserver is written in C, while log4j is a Java library / framework, so I don't see how the two are related.

Still a pretty big deal with a lot of java-based web services (including some other Apache software) open to the web in various forms (which possibly use log4j) but the specific HTTP webserver itself I think is unaffected, or is my understanding off here?

(edit to add - probably means though that there's now tons of curious developers scouring the logging layer of their favourite software to see if similar exploits exist).
