Poll question: Conspiracy or Truth? |
|
Which is easier to believe in? Why?
Not for any particular topic, just in general.

1. Serious in the gray zone answer |
|
some truths are truly conspiracies... in a legal sense.
And that is what makes the idea that CT are just crazy, well crazy.
Now will something like MIHOP hold any under a real serious scrutiny? No.... does it have some grains of truth? Yes, who benefits, for example.
Oh another famous one, Kennedy... at least to me does not matter if Lee shot him, or the CIA... the end result was the same.
I just touched on the two major ones that are eternal favorites.

2. I voted Other since it is easier to believe in boogie men than in reality |
|
Sometimes reality can be difficult, and it can be easier to believe that there was something bigger, a larger group, making things happen rather than things just happening.
Of course, there are conspiracies, but in general I usually believe in simpler answers.

4. It's easier to follow a story. |
|
So, if the truth is too complicated right off the bat or if someone gets off a story before the truth comes out, people believe that.

5. Conspiracy happens - a lot! And propaganda tells us we're nuts for seeing that truth |
|
So it's hard for me to pick a response.
