Conspiracy Theory anyone?

You need to seek help, mental help.

I’m inclined to agree.

The world is crazy enough without having to invent stuff...

I totally agree.

I've just wasted my time reading that rubbish.

Those are all theories believed by many.

I simply cannot buy into the majority of CTs, most are ridiculous, some designed to create fear and all are simply theories.

We could all publish a load of made up 💩💩💩, most of all simply couldn’t be bothered.

Thanks for sharing OP, but I’ll pass on this.

(grin) I'm not saying your wrong, but where exactly is anything I've written not making any sense?

Could you engage rather than attack?

Same question to barleyfields

Those are all theories believed by many.

But why are they believed by many?

Not sure what the point of this thread is? Just to say that the conspiracy theories listed above are rubbish?

So why was Bridgette awarded damages.
BTW, you need to get out more 🤦🏼‍♀️

Thanks Cossy for your reply.

It's a good point that creating fear could be a reason for putting a conspiracy out there.
I hadn't covered that point.
As you said, all are simply theories, until they aren't

I suppose I had in the back of my mind the way science is or used to be pursued.
You started with an idea that usually didn't fit with the status quo.
Then took the brick bats until you proved your position.

Of course I get it that my thoughts don't always translate too well on here

You got that right, KeepingQuiet

namsnanny - if there was anything in this it wouldn't have had to be self published!

Did you know it's an old non-story being rehashed by Trumps right wing?

I think he's called Poussard by the way.

In chat because it could be interesting and lighthearted

Sorry, but I don't think the slurs about Brigitte Macron and Michelle Obama are at all light-hearted or indeed interesting.

Agreed Allira - not even the flat earth stuff is interesting or amusing.

I know a journalist of a very well known newspaper and they informed me that they had seen photographic evidence to prove that she was born a man. Were the photos fake? Who knows. I most definitely believe the journalist though. They were not allowed to publish them.

Oh, NotSpaghetti, that's the only one which just might be true 😂

We've got a huge map of the Earth at home, and it's flat, honestly.

I'm no expert on this subject, but I believe if you managed to find and read the court docs. you will find the court awarded damages for defamation on part of the accusation, but not the part about changing sex or living as a different sex.

As I say I haven't read the docs my self.

But this thread isn't about this case specifically, it was about what people think about subjects that are outside of the norm, how and what might make them change their perspective, and secondly, how some can be easily castigated by implication.
