View submission: RIP conspiracy

A lot of posts recently are... kinda shit. It's just "the media lies to you". While I agree that happens a lot, it doesn't happen ALL the time.

Most posts go like this: "CNN says that Kim Kardashian likes tacos. Why would the media want us to think that? What sort of power play, 4D chess is happening?"

I mean, it was fun at first, but now is just annoying. I gave up long ago on expecting critical thinking in this sub, but now I can't even expect some good imagination.

Terrifying the stunning inability of ppl to use reason and critical thinking. The kicker is, they really, *really* believe they're "red pilled" & the rest of us who don't parrot they're exact talking points are "blue pilled". And that's it, dismissed. Zero nuance, nothing remotely reasonable, all black n white. That's not conspiracy. That's propaganda.
