There always have been kooks and cranks.

They’re just getting more traction NOW because government is less worthy of trust than ever:

People believe in conspiracies in places where there’s plenty of TALK about transparency, yet NONE of it in practice.

Behold:

A billionaire molests over 300 young girls, gets 13 months of local jail, part-time during the work week, gets his own emtpty jail wing and hires HIS OWN PRIVATE JAILERS..?

Sorry, that sounds juuuuust like Pablo Escobar-type incarceration. That absolutely does not sound like the USA.

Why doesn’t EVERYONE in America disbelieve the Apollo Landing..?

Under the circumstances I’d say we’re paragons of trust and civic participation.

Look at this Russia stole the election hoax, or better yet global warming. Think of how much money has been spent on windmills to save the planet. If carbon dioxide were a real problem, we'd be nearly 100% nuclear powered.

There's some interesting arguments regarding Apollo like the battery power they used to broadcast live TV from the moon. And others...

also because “it was faked” is a lot easier to understand than why we totally abandoned space travel for two generations after such a triumph
