From our things you should've learned in school dept:
Don't believe everything you read in the newspapers. And infinitely more so, don't believe everything you read on the internet. Especially stuff you find on conspiracy sites or blog sites.

The more someone wants to believe something, the more desperate they become to seek out validating sources.
Personally, I have always found the conspiracy genre entertaining. However, I have never treated conspiracy theories with anything but strong skepticism.

I’d replace the word “everything” with “anything”.

My wife started watching YouTube 2 years ago, I warned 90% of the content is wrong.
Today, if anything, it's more.

There an entire industry set up to disseminate false info to all major social sites. Largely funded by America’s enemies. Cina, Rissi, Iran, NK, all have major programs to do it. And unfortunately, they work.
There is no shortage of willing dupes.

Like Mark Twain (the real one) said: “If you don’t read the newspapers you are uninformed. If you do read the newspapers you are misinformed” - that goes for the internet too.

I don’t believe this post. Does that mean I should believe everything else on the Internet? I’m so confused…

The MSM controls the narrative by what they don’t report. Alt sites try to expose the hidden, some get off-base. IMO, there is more untruth on the MSM than Alt sites.

There are far too many conspiracy theorists frequenting FR these days.

I look for the common thread to at least find a consistency. Lots of things that were labeled conspiracy theory or Q droppings a year ago aren’t so far “out there” now.
