From America Gov Conspiracy Theories And Misinformation

From America Gov Conspiracy Theories And Misinformation
Conspiracy Theories and Misinformation, from America.gov. It's deeply, darkly, insidious and yet it's also comedic in a "You don't really buy into this?" kind of way.

"Conspiracy theories exist in the realm of myth, where imaginations run wild, fears trump facts, and evidence is ignored. As a superpower, the United States is often cast as a villain in these dramas."You can check out the "truth" about such things as: 9/11, Health, Military, Latin America, Outer Space. Not much space is given to any of these topics, just a paragraph or two that tells you, everything is all right, you see, people just naturally don't understand and are anxious:

"in the 20th century, aliens in "flying saucers" became a focus of fears and anxiety,... We project onto imaginary aliens some of our deepest fears... we could be victimized, enslaved or exterminated by a technologically superior civilization... imaginary aliens represent the ultimate unknowable, feared "other."Interesting how they've chosen to frame UFOs, aliens and humanity in a fear based context.
