Conspiracy – Avoid the trap

Comment: Many years ago I spent some time looking at conspiracy sites I learnt government and organisations do lie and there are constant attempts to manipulate people.

But now he’d watched a YouTube video that picked apart the last element of the theory he believed in. Standing there smoking, he would say later, he felt “shattered.” He had gone down the QAnon rabbit hole; now, having emerged from it, he had no idea what to do next.

‘QAnon only hurts people. It has helped nobody.’
