I’ve read that conspiracy theories spread during times of crisis because people are seeking answers to questions that don’t currently exist. When people don’t feel in control they build narratives in their mind to try and make sense of a situation.

Let’s not also forget that bad actors and trolls just want to create chaos. So they’ll find ways to reach socially isolated, poorly educated, digitally illiterate people who believe anything that could seemingly make sense to them.

Ah the old ‘spend billions on charity only to remake those same billions years later with a vaccine for a disease you created for a net 0 profit’ gig.

But why is Bill Gates all of a sudden the voice of coronavirus vaccines. All of a sudden he is granting all these interviews and pushing vaccinations. Pls do more research about how the gates foundation tested vaccines on children in india and Africa. On the surface they seem like good pple, "philanthropist " but truly their agenda is evil.

Gates foundation has done a lot of vaccine work over the years and there is verifiable information on how they tested vaccines on third world country children and caused great harm, all in the name of “helping the world”.

If it were truly something real, then there’d be verifiable truth or valid claim to actually back it up. Like I said - show me the research and the actual deep dive, not some link of out of this world web of events. It’s funny because people who believe these things never can provide legitimate research done by an institution or credible group of journalists. It’s because you seem to lack some sort of education that you base your beliefs on conspiracies and can’t separate fact from some nut jobs. Don’t tell me you didn’t google search and get convinced by some poorly written breitbart article

It's coming from the same people that oppose raising taxes on billionaires. They say we should encourage billionaires to be charitable and philanthropic instead.

So as soon as one of them is, those people start demonizing and villifying him.

Half of America can't comprehend doing something for a reason other than self interest.

OP — conspiracy theories are what drive eyeballs to InfoWars and other sources. Eyeballs = money. The more insane the theory, the more money the spreader of theories makes.

And while the vast majority of us are smart enough to ignore idiot conspiracy theories, others actually believe it. And a few of them end up in the mainstream.

Pizzagate was pushed by what some consider to be “legitimate” sources.

If it was just infowars and Fox News pushing it, I wouldn’t be too concerned. Particularly concerning are the people seemingly on the other side of political spectrum talk about these theories as well

Gates... The only time trumpublicans care about Africans.
