    In trying to prove to a friend that fluoride in the water wasn’t bad, I had to dig into the conspiracy to refute each point.

      Did your research end up changing your friend’s mind?

        He did conceded on some the absolutely bat shit claims but couldn’t bring himself to fully believe the fluoride shouldn’t be in the water.

        Sorry this was a long time ago. The guy has definitely mellowed some since though he did have a brief Stephen Crowder stint during the pandemic. Old habits die hard.

    anything qanon related will make your brain implode faster than a carbon fiber pressure hull at 12k feet.

    edit: this is not a good thing

      Yeah, I’m all for conspiracies and many have been proven true over time. Q is a whole different world.

          Government surveillance and things like Iran-Contra and MK Ultra are what I’m meaning.

            Those were not exactly conspiracy theories. They were investigated and proven. They were illegal from the start.

              Before they were proven they would have been regarded as conspiracy theories.

      There’s way more to schizophrenia than just seeing something that’s not there, though.
