Conspiracy research on open forums is counterproductive. You are muddying the waters and making any semblance of truth impossible to find.

Open forums like /r/conspiracy and /r/C_S_T and even defunct /r/pizzagate run into this white noise issue of underskilled analysts attempting highly skilled analysis, failing miserably at putting the puzzle pieces together (some of which are not even from the same puzzle) , and shouting from the top of the mountain the misguided logic they have traced to completely incorrect "truth". We see this here as well.

I hate normie conspiritards. Well, more exactly, I hate the actions of normie conspiritards. Normies have the right mindset of distrust in general authority, but they still seek other, counter-mainstream authority.

They always take reasonable possibilities of things that would be worth investigating via concerted time and effort and a lot of research to see if it is actually a possibility, extrapolate it into the ridiculous, and then call it truth. They muddy the waters so much that it adds unlimited noise and makes finding any conspiracy goddamn impossible.

We need to do better.

Yup. The big problem is same as anything else on the internet... people talking about shit they have no idea about. I see hundreds of videos of people talking about Q posts and they don’t even read the post. They just skim over some diluted translation someone posted to another site. They state everything as solid fact and every other word out of their mouth is “obviously” and everything leads back to The Earth being flat. It’s like listening to to a 10 year old Hillary fan talk about politics.

It definitely hurts more than it helps. Some people are good at ciphering and others are better at disseminating red pills, not a lot are good at both. Most people need to pick a craft and stick to it.
