The new one that Epstein didn't commit suicide and was probably extracted? Or the one about (insert mass shooting name here) not being what it's presented as being? Or the one about Obama's birth certificate (that he doesn't have)? Or about the vaccines causing autism (which we can prove)? Or about the chemtrailing (we can go outside and SEE)? Or that JFK wasn't killed by Lee Harvey Oswald? Or RFK wasn't killed by Sirhan Sirhan? Or MLK wasn't killed by some other guy with 3 names I can't recall? Or that there were no Weapons of Mass destruction in Iraq and the whole war was a lie? As was Vietnam with the Gulf of Tonkin? Or why did Building 7 go down during 911 when it wasn't struck by anything? Ad infinitum. I guess the only answer for the System is....mass lobotomies. Because as long as people can THINK AND ASK QUESTIONS....there will always be "conspiracy theories". Also known as....investigation. [/quote] Thank you wise soul. You see clearly. [/quote] Except for that none of those are conspiracy theories, they are merely theories. [/quote] Lol, sure. 20/20, you said? [/quote] Do you know what a conspiracy is? [/quote] Of course, we all do. A conspiracy is when more than 2 or more people plan to do something in secret - either an event, a project, a program, whatever. Something they want to hide from the rest of us especially if they can give it a facade of being something else. That's all it is. The idea is not complex. And conspiracies routinely happen ALL THE TIME, in and out of government. [/quote] Therefore if you aren't placing blame on 2 or more people, all you have is a theory. [/quote] I'm not going to waste time debating with you, I see the diversion tactic. Sorry. [/quote] Diversion? I'm being 100% literal as any lawyer or judge would be. You can't change the meanings of words to suit whatever it is you want to do today. [/quote]

Did I just see that?
An entire segment dedicated to how devastating conspiracy theories are... and how to handle family members who believe them...
Unbelievable.
They actually link the belief of conspiracy theories to a serious mental health diagnosis.
Wait... what??
This is absurd.
(watch the whole segment)
