🕵️♂️📜🌀 Conspiracies sell fast, truth crawls slow. Real ones leave paper trails, like Big Tobacco hiding cancer risks. Fake ones scream plots with no proof, blaming everyone and their dog. The trick is evidence, motive, and source. Without that, it’s smoke, not fire. #ConspiracyThinking https://theconversation.com/how-to-tell-if-a-conspiracy-theory-is-probably-false-229081

Via @UCC : Critical thinking training can reduce belief in conspiracy theories
A new study finds that training in critical thinking skills can be effective in counteracting conspiracy beliefs.
Many well-established programmes for reducing people's belief in conspiracies have either no effect or a negative effect.
The study is the first to directly compare different strategies to reduce conspiracy thinking.

CW: Dear N'joy Pothos, am I really so difficult to live with?
@dragfyre
Hey, I try and I try.
If it dies, it dies.It's like being told, "No, you're not ready to have a dog." 😒
Or maybe* the two perfectly healthy shiny leaves at the far end are slowly murdering the other leaves so they'd have less competition. I mean, there's no other explanation! #conspiracythinking 😅😂🤣
