The “Chemtrail” folks, when pushed, couldn’t come up with anything substantive….
In fact, when the hard questions were asked, they faded away like Homer Simpson into the bushes.
I expect that if I asked the same from the “Vaccines are all bad” crowd, they’d do the same.
Not every conspiracy theory is wrong, but most are…..Most have their basis in fear and ignorance…Most of the followers of a particular conspiracy theory just can’t use logic, refuse to think critically and don’t bother to think clearly or use science…And it shows…It’s more like a religion.
And the worst part is the reinforce each other like women gossiping. What appear to be intelligent people go off-the-rails when it come to things like “chemtrails” and the “Vaccine Conspiracy”… They just repeat what others have said….
They never have anything substantive, nor can they provide those critical things like details…All they have is innuendo and anecdotes from someone that they don’t know who they heard about 5th-hand or saw in X or Facebook, but whose credentials they have no idea about….and when pressed they act like 7th grade girls in an argument, twisting and squirming and deflecting, but never answering. They BELIEVE because they need something to fear and to talk about.
Sad, really.
It is fun to mess with them though.
