    Anyone notice conspiracy theorists? They mainly all agree with each other 100%. Talk to one, you talk to them all.

    They are often are. Why is that? Talked to one about Satanism and suggested it be close to ideal person such as Nietzsche explained. He comes back saying baby killer.

    They're generally lower educated numbskulls who believe anything they read on facebook.
    Even worse is their sneering condescendence towards non-believers. They're basically vegans in disguise but more dense.

    I think most modern conspiracy sites are fronts for the far right.

    Conspiracies happen all the time. There’s a lot of weird threads going on about this.

    Most people marry their 3rd cousin, You need a certain amount in common to have a successful marriage.

    It stands to reason that if you're going to buy into one batch of poorly conceived silliness like chemtrails then you'd be open to others as well.

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

    Could be a high percentage of vegans or anti medicine.

    They don't tho, agree I mean.
    It's a very odd situation where you can be chatting to a number of them and they will each directly contradict each others theories, thesis and "evidence".
    Often in ways that are diametrically opposed, yet they will still unite in their claims that whatever of the events they are talking about.
    Is totally and utterly a conspiracy.

    It's amazing to watch, but exhausting to participate in, or counter and I really do believe it needs to be countered when seen or at least teased out for explanation and evidence.

    Exactly. They don't reference their research. May throw in a video.

    Would the Chinese lab leak be considered a conspiracy theory?

    Where don't they agree? Maybe different reasons why the twin towers fell. Still relentless in their conversations.

    I knew a guy years ago who used to drone on endlessly about a pedophile ring in Ireland involving dozens of priests, known by bishops, facilitated by the Catholic Church, ignored by police and politicians, and apparently journalists knew but didn’t report anything.

    That’s the kind of looper we are talking about. Imagine believing that. Nutcase.

    Sure, but it’s state sponsored, so that’s ok.

    What about Epstein?

    They be relentless. You couldn't relax, even watching a movie.

    That’s not what I said. There are two kinds of stupid people when it comes to conspiracy theories.

    People who believe everything.
    People who don’t believe anything.

    Conspiracies happen all the time.

    What now? Neither you nor Brian Boru can read, apparently. The conspiracy I was talking about in that post was true.
