I think people who have no skepticism at all are worse than the conspiracy types

Close minded people like you that are naive enough to believe the world is straight forward and gullible enough to think that the government and the leaders of the world don't try to deceive you are the dangerous ones

Some of it is poor education IMO. It's not that there aren't always going to be a bunch of loons, but in many cases the educational system isn't giving people the tools that they need to be able to evaluate the information that they can find. So they get a little bit of info, like white trails from airplanes, don't understand what is going on and then uncritically accept a patently stupid explanation.

Is it conspiracy theory or just having an open mind? I get that there are some folks that are bat crap crazy but, to be honest, if you believe everything that you are told by the government and the media, then you are a mindless lemming. I try to examine evidence that is presented and make my own decisions.

They usually only post shite online.
The people that break shite to "protest" are worse. That will only get worse as their constant protesting dilutes the effect andthey need to do more to get attention, along with nothing being done to them.
People who constantly shout down opposing viewpoints are also worse.

No, that would be liberals!

Yes. They compensate for their feelings of inadequacy by claiming they have a special knowledge of the world that others, the sheep, don't possess. Whereas normal people are willing to be proven wrong, they aren't. They move the goalposts for satisfying answers routinely.

Then you're probably not a conspiracy theorist. But, if you believe almost nothing you are told by the govt regarding newsworthy events, you probably are.

So you think that the world is transparent and every thing is public knowledge? If Jake doesn't know about it or have access to direct proof then it can't be true. People never lie about anything.
Your post screams compensating for inadequacy.

The scary part is what if they are the ones who are right?
I don't laugh at people with different thoughts or theories. IMO a healthy free society requires a segment to always be questioning things no matter how outlandish. Because to keep Govt in check only requires them to be right once even if they were wrong 99 times before that.
And educated people is one that listens to all versions and does research to find truth. People who take what they are simply told are just as stupid.

I think they still lose out to the Social Justice Warriors.
At the very tip top of the "Most Dangerously Stupid" list is: BLM
The black community as a whole starts out with the idea that education is a negative. Then adds that all things not originated by exclusively black origins are therefore "whitey" and to be held in disdain.
And then BLM triples down on the previous doubled bet that they are actively sought out as targets to be murdered exclusively by all police black, white, and all shades in between. As in: Random Cops daily just wake up from slumber and actively decide, "hey, I'll be sure to hunt down and kill a random black person today, yeah yeah, that's what I'll do".
Nothing tops that kinda stupidity as most dangerous! BLM wins by a landslide!

Of course. That is the only rational way to be.
I'm not talking about intelligent skepticism; I'm talking about lunacy.

The ones I know are totally harmless.
