“tin-foil hats”

I don’t think foil is actually made of tin. Shouldn’t it be aluminum foil hats?

Steel and tin cans

Sip - Steel cans are made of tinplate (tin-coated steel) or of tin-free steel.
In some dialects, even
aluminium cans are called "tin cans".
Spelled like it's spoken.

It went through it like it was aluminum foil...

The original “conspiracy” theory ....
That's what they want you to think....

They are just trying to get you to take off your hat.
Think about it ... if it's not tin .. why do they call it “tin” foil? Pull your hat down snug. Hold on tight!
