Do you realize you are employing typical defence of any conspiracy theory when facing the fact that an alleged conspiracy doesn't look consistent to be real? And I mean absolutely literally. That exact statement I heard from people who believe in ZOG.
- pjc50 7y agoWe know gamergate was a conspiracy because someone found the IRC channel where the conspirators were conspiring.
- brokenkebab 7y agoThe proof of which existed only in form of a picture posted by 'someone' who (mildly speaking) was deeply involved in the controversy.
- happytoexplain 7y agoYou've in fact heard lots of reasonable sentences from conspiracy theorists, if you replace the nouns. I think it's less reasonable to believe in ZOG than to have the opinion that Gamergate appeared to be more about childish mockery and hatred than the more weighty concept of journalistic integrity. By the logic you're implying, we can't accept that anything is any more or less than exactly what it's most well-spoken proponents try to present it as.
- brokenkebab 7y agoA conspiracy theorist can say reasonable things, however this exact thing is a circular argument: conspiracy exists but our proof doesn't look convincing exactly because it is conspiracy. There are no generalizations in my comment which you implied.
