Conspiracy theories are for people who are too stupid to realise they're stupid

So the book is literally just listing conspiracy theories? I see.

Doesnt seem big enough... Today an old lady came to me suggesting that the bad weather is caused by wars... I said what ? She explained that bombs create clouds and as such the bad weather....

I'd bet you believe in several things that are considered conspiracy theories.

I've yet to meet someone who believes Epstein killed himself for instance.

I bet you're American and think that other cultures eat up conspiracy theories the way yours does

No of course I don't

Well, I firmly believe that nobody in Belgium knows how to whistle, but that's been proven correct on multiple occasions

You'd lose that bet my friend.

I just think labelling conspiracy theories that way is silly.
