True but people who believe conspiracy theories, especially the shit from Alex Jones, just can't be rational. You can give them absolute scientific proof and they still won't believe it. What they want to believe seems to deep that it is beyond reason.
Some examples:
- 9/11 "Truthers" think all kinds of stupid things were involved such as remote controlled airplanes and demolition explosives.
- Obama "Birthers" like Donald Trump STILL don't believe Potus was born in the US, despite seeing his birth certificate.
- "Looners" or "Lunars" or whatever the fuck they are called think the moon landings were faked.
People like these collect all kinds of garbage faux-truths into their heads and cannot for the life of them consider for 1 second that they could be wrong. It's beyond sad - Nutjobs like these eventually make it to the radio (Alex Jones) and TV (Glenn Beck) and can even influence politics making a bad situation much much worse.
I'm all for the 1st amendment but there is so much disinformation out there believed by dopes that I think causes real progress to be held back in alot of areas.
Sad, sad sad.
