Conspiracy theories have thrived during the pandemic and you may even have a friend or relative who’s brought one up in conversation
But how can you talk to them without starting an argument – or sending them further down the rabbit hole?https://t.co/XJDpd8S13S pic.twitter.com/rXpv6lFc3U

This afternoon.
Big Auntie deals with the dangerously feeble-minded and their much-lauded ‘critical thinking’ in traditional fashion. She has a special room for them.
My advice? If you have a relative or friend dabbling in fanciful speculation, especially around the ‘rona, try this: cut them out of your life completely and alert the authorities.
Ignorance is strength!

I remember the conspiracy theory about North Korean subs kidnapping Japanese people from beaches, then taking them back to North Korea. Oh wait, it turns out it was true.
when was that ever considered to be a “conspiracy theory”?
Is that the game now, assign the phase “conspiracy theory” to any thing that’s has been proved correct?
effing loon-bags
I am old enough to remember when it was reported as a conspiracy theory.
Wikipedia has this:
For a long time, these abductions were denied by North Korea and its sympathizers (including Chongryon and the Japan Socialist Party) and were often considered a conspiracy theory. Despite pressure from Japanese parent groups, the Japanese government took no action.
Any contemporary media reports from western medis?
To my knowledge, these kidnappings were not widely reported upon, as conspiracy theories or otherwise.
There are plenty of conspiracy theories that turned out to be true (Iran-Contra, MK Ultra) – I think the event you mentioned was not the best example for this part of the world
LOL – sorry it didn’t meet your standards. I said I remember it being a conspiracy theory. That is why I mentioned it. The truth can be labelled as a conspiracy theory, too. You may want to look up ‘fake news’.
Another mention of it as a conspiracy theory:

Clear proof at they are ALL true. End of. Simples. Wake up sheeple.
I never said they were all true. The vast majority are not. This one turned out to be true.
‘The vast majority are not’
Yeah right. That’s what THEY want you to think. Keep drinking that Kool Aid man…
Now there’s a Ministry for Brian Cowen
Poor Bodger is feeling judged.
Hang on. Yesterday the BBC medical correspondent’s tweets on mask efficacy were being held up as evidence of the coronavirus hoax. And now the BBC is the “Ministry of Truth”? Confusing!
If you have a relative or friend dabbling in fanciful speculation, especially around the ‘rona, try this: cut them out of your life completely and alert the authorities.
But a “Stable Genius” bringing down a paedophile ring based out of a pizzeria makes perfect, logical sense, eh?
May contain irony.
+nuts
And a pinch of salt
Yeah, it’s all just being ironic to pwn the libs.
Nigel. Woke but asleep.
*ironic satanic hand signals*
lol Bodger’s getting cranky. the old detached, cynical facade is starting to slip.
Same goes for anyone peddling Qanon and the great awakening BS
It’s not like the guy in charge of ‘Corona’ in the States (Fauci) is giving secret satanic/masonic hand signs in press briefings or anything…

Bravely done, digital warrior.
This website is becoming “conspiracy theory” central.
Triggered as per usual.
Conspiracies are bad apart from the evidence free ones linking bad orange man to Russia.
Did you mobilise against that furniture website that was full of trafficked children last week? Must have been very exciting!

It’s not like the guy in charge of ‘Corona’ for the whole WORLD (Gates) has ever flashed satanic hand signs live on TV or anything…
