@CivilityFan honesty you don't talk conspiracy theorists out of it with more facts, because that's not what's going on. The conspiracy is someone trying to meet their own needs, comfort and empower themselves. If you look at the need they're trying to meet, it can be much more useful than focusing on how they are trying to frame it.
