At this time in our country, where division is especially high, misinformation isn't just an *oopsie* moment of bad reporting (purposeful or not) that scurries away when the general population, now corrected, laugh or admonish the sources or individuals who presented it, readjusting their reality back to their pre-bullshit reality...it's dangerous.
Normally you wouldn't give a shit if someone believes we never landed on the moon or that we've been visited by extraterrestrials, but it's being hidden...or that a French Cabal of shadow assassins was hired to take out President Kennedy...because at the end of the day, it didn't "affect us", not really. Government pissed us off, politicians butted heads and life, good and bad, continued forward. Now though, conspiracies, such as these...do affect us. Not this one, particularly in and of itself, but it in conjunction with so many other ones...sharing a common theme...that exist more because of visceral emotion about the hatred and loathing of one man, than the personal unacceptable realities conspiracies usually owe their existence and origins to.
Now it's a bunch of like minded, conspiracy eating citizens, elected as our Representatives in the halls of the Congress and the Senate. Ignoring them isn't an option, because personal opinion, in the form conspiracy, whose basis usually resides in intrigue and outside the realm of affecting every day life...is now born, believed and maintained from fear and anger...in a position of power that can. That...is dangerous. That is antithetical to any progress or at least attempts at it, especially when any progress is perceived to be tied directly to those conspiracies as a part of those conspiracies, woven into them and playing out, that must be stopped. It's a never ending circle of fuck.
