I've been struggling with find a new forum niche for awhile now. Now I'm considering starting a conspiracy forum. Looking around there isn't much in the way or discussion boards on the subject. Should I just do it?

What type of community are you building? A conspiracy forum is a great way to stir up controversy, but in most communities it's not going to be very constructive. Just my two cents.

Aw, what an interesting question! I feel like a conspiracy forum could go either way...it could be insightful yet also dangerous if people start accepting conspiracies or fake news as fact. And there could be the chance that it picks up steam and turns into something like the Jan. 6th insurrection. But I definitely have some conspiracy theorists in my family who would gladly contribute to every conversation!

Lol wait you're saying there's not any conspiracy forums online anymore? Isn't the internet like one big conspiracy forum now? Besides Q-anon, the most obvious example, there's also tons of conspiracy talk about all kinds of subjects all over the internet. I don't think it's quite as niche as maybe you're thinking..

What are you goals? A conspiracy forum seems cliche honestly. I've seen many of them on Reddit and Quora
