Please keep your conspiracy theories at home. We have enough real problems to deal with.

Discounting others concerns by calling them conspiracy theorists is hurtful and fake news.

I agree that China is either weaponizing this virus or keeping the real number of infected people from the world!

If they engineered it, they may have found our Achilles Heel...

While a conspiracy theory might be taken to mean any explanation of an event or situation involving a conspiracy, in popular usage (as opposed to technical legal usage) the term carries the pejorative connotation [2][3] [4] that the appeal to a conspiracy is implausible and based on prejudice or insufficient evidence.[5] Conspiracy theories resist falsification and are reinforced by circular reasoning: both evidence against the conspiracy and an absence of evidence for it are re-interpreted as evidence of its truth,[5][6] whereby the conspiracy becomes a matter of faith rather than something that can be proved or disproved.[7][8]

Research suggests that conspiracist ideation—belief in conspiracy theories—can be psychologically harmful or pathological[9][10] and that it is highly correlated with psychological projection, paranoia and Machiavellianism.[11] Conspiracy theories once limited to fringe audiences have become commonplace in mass media, emerging as a cultural phenomenon of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.[12
