Well, wait a second. If you didn't experience this, then how can you make the presumption that it is research that leads to conspiratorial mindsets?

Because they voice those conspiratorial mindsets in their tweets and posts on the subject, fresh from the well.

Plus I'm just kinda extrapolating on big dumb human nature: spend enough time digging through dirt, you're gonna walk away dirty. Combine that metaphor with "When you've got a hammer, everything looks like a nail," and yep, that's what I'm trying to get at here.

I read something about this recently -- MSM writers investigating Q skeptically but feeling the same conspiracy mentality growing -- but it's lost somewhere in my twitter history, if I find it, I'll add it.

But what about when you should? Clearly conspiracies exist

Totally agree -- but I think a knee-jerk reaction is unwise and often unhelpful, and that's what I keep seeing here: the automatic assumption that each and every discrepancy in the world is an indication of a secret conspiracy.

EDIT: banned, take it easy yall
