It all started because these people were demanding an audience for their ridiculous, convoluted lies and BS, and somebody had the brilliant idea that if they could publicly debate one of these people and humiliate them, the rest would shut up and slink back under their rocks where they belong. But the problem is, when you're dealing with someone who arrived at their ridiculous conclusions through illogic and unreasoning emotion, you can't use reason and logic to help them understand.

@LordShadowfire I agree. The thing is though, I wonder what makes people put so much stock into influencers it's crazy how much they are trusted.

I've fallen victim to it but now you can look up their claims to see if it's true to come to your own conclusion and I wonder about people who believe the first thing they hear.

@SatanBurger I'll tell you exactly how people fall for it. The type of people who spread these ridiculous rumors and theories know exactly how to talk to people who feel insecure about their knowledge of the world. They build them up by saying that they're smarter than the other people around them, which makes them feel good, because usually they feel bad because they know less than everyone else.
