Parents are constantly thinking everything is a conspiracy with the latest being the Maui fire.

“Isn’t it odd all the fires started at the same time?!”

“I just want to know the real truth!”

There’s being skeptical and then there’s being irrational. It’s getting hard to hold any meaningful conversation since everything ends up deteriorating to these comments. I guess some people get weird as they get older and interact with society less.

You didn’t know that the government shot heat lasers down on Hawaii to start the fires

Refer them to the Political Talk so they can see the truth.

Take their phones away so they can't listen to Alex Jones' podcasts. Then tell the he got sued and lost biggly for making up stuff about Sandy Hook. But the election was really stolen...

No no no you fool. It was the lizard people who gave the homeless lasers!

Damn your parents seem WAY cooler than you. Oh and the fires going in Canada are 1000% arson. Wake up man. They’re probably ashamed they raised a sheep not a wolf

How do you know the fires weren’t started intentionally by the government?

It doesn’t help that almost every major Covid conspiracy theory that social media silenced was true…

Or the Hunter Biden laptop story they silenced or wrote article after article on how it was fake was true…

It’s reinvigorated and emboldened the fck out of these people, the Maui thing is really sad, best of luck to you.

I think the president talking about his 67 corvette makes everything strange.

Prob makes people question a lot of things seeing that walking corpse.

I don’t follow him and I know everyone clowns on Alex Jones for obvious reasons, but he was talking about Epstein Island and digital currency 10 years ago.

Hell I just had a Rogan clip pop up talking about it on my Twitter feed how he thought he was joking about a couple things he said on his show, but now it’s all happened.

The world has gotten pretty weird.

I’d say the like 30% of z that identify as an alphabet has done some damage.

Teenage girls start these dang movements online.
