@slott56 I am fascinated about the mentality that seizes on a singular piece of information, regardless of the source, and repeats it as gospel because it validates a personal belief.
"Do your own research," should be empowering statement but it has been twisted into something dark: an encouragement to cherry pick whatever one can find in an infinite internet of content, to never be forced to reconcile with being wrong or go through the discomfort of growing. Feelings over facts.
@matthew I was curious what nonsense they were going to spew.
I knew a Chemtrails person, once upon a time. For them, it seemed to be a generic anti-government grievance cloaked in pseudo-scientific bafflegab. They were part of a network of like-minded folks who (a) were sure chemtrails were a thing and (b) didn't wear foul-weather gear at all times.
Did they really *believe* it? Or. Did they merely repeat it?
