There's millions of hours of video documenting conversations with people involved in everything you can imagine. From fake moon landings to explosives in the twin towers to aliens among us to secret global cabals running the world's governments and every other thing you can imagine.
Without original unedited footage, why should it get any more consideration than the National Enquirer? This election has seen a lot of disinformation; people will go to extreme lengths.
Basic requirements for substantiation of a claim aren't mental gymnastics, outlining a process with examples isn't equating them. |
I have watched plenty of Flat Earth videos. I've got their documents and I tested their calculations. I've spent hundreds of hours studying astrophysics and the Flat Earth theories actually corroborate a lot of Einsteinian theories of relativity.
That being said it's clear you have given very little actual thought and research into either topic.
Mmm...false equivalence. I'm going to write this down so I can follow your script for ignoring critical thought.
1. Use buzzwords
2. Groupthink
3. False equivalence
