While think pushing conspiracy theories as fact is a bit much, I don't think that thinking openly about such possibilities makes you a fool.

The amusing part about this comparison is that Einstein married his own cousin.

10 years ago Jeffery Epstein's pedophile island was considered a conspiracy theory
LunaticLegostone
A theory that wasn't disprovable, just unbelievable at this point. Conspiracy theories like COVID-19 not being real are easily disprovable.
spudpicker
After he'd been accused by a dozen victims, indicted by grand jury, and given a clearly corrupt plea deal? That's informed speculation.
JohanWyss
Eh. I think 5G is evil because it's mostly set up and run by the PRC's goons.
Relaxaursphincta
Guess all the actual documented conspiracies just aren't "theories"... o.O

Correct. A documented conspiracy is no longer a theory, but a fact.

Seanspeed
The amount of effort some conspiracy theorists go to to support the dumbest things. It's sad, cuz there's clearly underlying intelligence
Seanspeed
and motivation to learn there. It's just being funneled in the worst way by poor critical thinking skills and lack of a bullshit filter.
c00lbeans69
It stems more from a distrust in authority, I think. These people often value personal freedom above all else, and if they cant understand
c00lbeans69
something that means no one can
LunaticLegostone
Paired with the common misconception that in order to be a critical thinker you just have to catigorically disagree with "those above you".

In such a corrupt country, drawing the line between conspiracy theory and legitimate conspiracy is getting difficult
heynongman4pres
The real conspiracy is the unwitting conspiracy of conspiracy theorist idiots to turn our country into a third world shithole with their BS.
EngineerforPresident
Except 5G. That’s ridiculous
LunaticLegostone
Probability is the word. Politicians lying and being corrupt for personal gain? Easily believable. Every single remarkeable scientist (1)
LunaticLegostone
lying about a virus for no observeable benefit? Unlikely.
Vergenbuurg
I'm a fan of some conspiracy theories, not because I believe them, but because I appreciate an inventive and well-crafted narrative.
Vergenbuurg
But most conspiracy theories aren't even enjoyable on even that level. I'm willing to suspend disbelief for some fiction, but only so far.
in70x
Conspiracies are science done backwards. Start with what you want and selectively fill in facts that support your (piss poor) theory.

So from Texas, but I love how some America’s are claiming covid is a government conspiracy to distract from something bigger

And this is what keeps fueling all the idiotic ones. Everybody thinks the conspiracy they dive into is correct.
jasgstock
My theory is that people criticize conspiracy theorists in order to hide actual conspiracies.
jasgstock
(how dat?)
rollercostarican
sometimes people criticize conspiracy theories because they have 0 facts to back up their claim. Most of the time its just two random events
rollercostarican
happening simultaneously and they'll create a whole back story about how one caused the other with 0 verifiable evidence or even false facts
LunaticLegostone
I criticize conspiracy theorists because most of them are obviously full of shit. What conspiracy do you think I'm hiding?
jasgstock
Area 51. Let's start with that. IMO it's a ploy by the Roswell BBB to drum up business.

Einstein helped make the A Bomb and wasn't the guy on the right super tall and in the ridiculously underrated Ewan McGregor movie Big Fish?
horsecrippler77
Don’t know about all that but the dude looks more like Ewan Bremner.
sonomarco
Einstein did NOT help make the A bomb. He was vehemently against it. Others used his scientific findings to make the A bomb.
Seanspeed
What does Einstein helping to make the A bomb have anything to do with anything here? And what motivated you to try and villainize him?

Seriously? How is harnessing/weaponizing nuclear fission a good thing? Be proud of the Theory of Relativity... not this.
D4rkmatter
Nuclear weapons are a great reason not to go to war. You'd enjoy something called the Cold War
cxmpxsxd
Man, you've changed my mind. You've swayed me. I'm on the phone right now with Iran and they're picking up what you're putting down!
D4rkmatter
Are you okay?
snackmanistan
Also tons of secondary and tertiary discoveries and inventions have occurred because of nuclear fission.
cxmpxsxd
They found your reasoning to be "enriching"... my translator sucks sometimes but I think they meant a paradoxical approach was enlightening.
lawideas
Nuclear weapons saved millions of lives in World War II. They enabled the end of the war without a land invasion of Japan.
cxmpxsxd
You could argue that The Manhattan Project took place during World War II and Japan was just a convenient way to show off a dope weapon.
heynongman4pres
No. It only existed bc of WWII
cxmpxsxd
Germany ≠ Japan
heynongman4pres
Germany surrendered before it was ready... ? What exactly is your point?
SchrodingersCats
Is the most common justification purported in the US
heynongman4pres
For god’s sake, the war saw millions of civilian deaths, often as a result of direct targeting by militaries on all sides.
snackmanistan
Everybody agrees it was horrible but i think most of the world agrees it was probably best in the long run. 100s of thousands of Japanese1/2

I got serious vibes of the nude Outlast twins from these guys. We’re they based on them or another distinctive pair of twins?
DingoidDongoid
the outlast twins were in fact based off these two

Ah cool! I didn’t know if they were based of real serial killers or something, or if it was a coincidence

Just random people from South Africa. Fun fact: the twins from Outlast were inspired by these two.

The power of black and white photography. Ballen was born in 1950, that's when I thought he took his photos when I first saw them.

Not specifically. Marfans is more identified as tall, very lanky, large hands, eye and heart issues. Earshape can be an indicator though

I was thinking Matt Mcgrory, cause they kind of looked like him. Best friend has it, but didn't know till he had chest pain. I mean 1/2

Very subtle, he's tall but not overtly lanky.
