There are too many people who will believe anything just because they want to.

It makes it worse when it's fellow Anons who do it, because they should know better.

I can't count the number of times that people here have fallen for some very silly things just because they read a tweet about it. And then wouldn't believe ANY sources others put up to refute it, because those sources couldn't be believed because "people lie". But those original tweets that convinced them to begin with weren't subject to that same level of skepticism.
