      There’s some weird wayfair furniture sales for extremely large amounts of money (10k+) that use girls first names as the name of the furniture. The conspiracy is that it’s a front for child trafficking. Belief in this conspiracy caused a lot of real world harm.

    Weird infographic. Why is it a pyramid, is that supposed to give it more credibility? What is the arrow from inverted apex to inverted base indicate?

      Have you seen that airport? It’s super weird. Crazy conspiracy theories are just the natural extension of that reality.

      (Note: Not saying I buy into the theories, just saying I understand why they exist.)
