I really think that many posters on this forum, and elsewhere have been told so often that anything the traditional media says is a lie, that anything that comes from a University or a well established organization is a lie. The only sources to be believed are those that know the "truth" like InfoWars and Q and Rush and their other trusted ones. So I honestly think they post what they think is the truth which is why I let things like "Fauci is a liar" go. But some things are so easy to debunk... who was actually at a meeting, did the video disappear.. that kind of thing. Maybe, just maybe, when those facts are shown it will make 1 in 100 of the conspiracists have a spark of curiosity to check whether their material is accurate and their sources are reliable.. then it was worthwhile to take the time to post the facts, the real facts.
I get your point.

But, I think you give these people much to much credit. Over the last few years, their “weakness” whether mental or whatever has been used and their minds manipulated to not care about what is true and what is not.

They have bought into the really obscene....if it’s bad news or does not validate me, it’s fake news..

I honestly do not know whether our country can survive what is happening. Too many do not think for themselves and worship at an obviously wrong altar

Not sure how we escape the weak minded and easily led.

I am not close to always right, but I respect truth...how anyone can be so weak is beyond me, but my country seems to be crammed with weak minds waiting to be led.

Sounds negative, and I suppose it is, but once you lose respect for truth, what’s left ?
