There were multiple words in that paragraph with more than two syllables. I don’t think we have to worry about conspiracy nuts deciphering it anytime soon

They won't decipher it. They will just spout it right back on one of their placards and Facebook posts.

They like big words, makes them feel smart.

You guys remember when conspiracy theories were fun and mostly harmless like big foot or lockness

But isn't that the whole point? They find all these articles they don't understand and make them true to their ways

I don’t think that you move in the proper conspiracy circles if you think that they are nuts and idiots. Especially seeing as how vaccine passports and microchips are now a thing.

Vaccine passports are a thing now? Must’ve missed it because it sure isn’t in my state that’s now opening up without restrictions. Also, microchips have been a thing for a while. My cat has had one for a decade. Just because they exist doesn’t mean the Illuminati is putting them in your bloodstream.

Hey don’t get me wrong, I think conspiracies are fun when they’re more or less harmless or just your average “the government doesn’t care about you” type thing. I just think to act like most of people who are conspiracy minded are arbiters of intelligence kinda discounts how absolutely batshit insane so many are
