    conspiracy theories are consistently just objectively cooler and more awesome than reality, like when conservatives start shouting about luxury gay space communism as if that’s supposed to be bad.

    I wish i lived in the world where we could inject people with something that turns their DNA into RNA and somehow they continue living, that’s rad as hell.

      No way is “the moon landing was faked” cooler than the fact humans walked on the moon 1961. And there is absolutely nothing cool about flat earthers!

      That’s the thing that gets me about conspiracy theories, they’re always way too interesting to be real. There are real conspiracies out there but they’re almost always boring because the last thing they want is to draw attention.

        It’s always fun to compare left-wing conspiracy theories to right-wing ones, left-wing theories are just “rich people are psychopaths who exploit our labour and earth is going to be miserable in 50 years, i want to die”
