/r/conspiracy subreddit but the credible information is mixed together with fake news. But it's easy to figure out which is which if you do a few searches online. A lot of stuff on there just seems insane, but then you start searching and sometimes it all checks out.
- sofixa 4y agoSorry to be memey, but X. Do you have concrete examples of stuff from r/conspiracy that "checks out"? I don't frequent that sub, but every time I've visited it's been just.. crazy talk without a shadow of a kernel of truth.
- Llamamoe 4y agoI'd call this a case of "humans are really good at noticing relationships but not their nature". Yeah, much of the time people are on to something - and most of the time they have no idea what, just that something is amiss, whether it's their understanding, media coverage, or an actual systemic issue.
