How's that invaluable? Even if someone's a quack or a little crazy, he may still be mostly right. Don't get me wrong, there were days when the paranoid fever dreams of borderline schizophrenics clearly belonged to the realms of unreality. But those days are gone. I miss them, but pretending they are still with us won't help. Take the pizza-parlor related conspiracy theories from a few years back. Thanks to the revelations concerning the late great J. Epstein, we know they were for the most part wrong. Except, for the part where a significant portion of the ruling class regularly engages in sex with underage girls. The quacks were wrong about everything except the most essential part of the story. I can give you other examples, if you wish, but few are as prominent and as unarguable as this one.
