[quote=zk][quote=Zeitgeist]Because there seems to be a rift here between the official version of how the experts describe Ebola behavior and the disturbing evidence of how it appears to be spreading, I have to post this:
“If you’re a conspiracy theorist, then you’re crazy, right? That’s been the common belief for years, but recent studies prove that just the opposite is true. “Researchers — psychologists and social scientists, mostly — in the U.S. and United Kingdom say data indicate that, contrary to those mainstream media stereotypes, ‘conspiracy theorists’ appear to be more sane than people who accept official versions of controversial and contested events.”
If you’re a conspiracy theorist, I would expect an incredibly lame article like that to be enough to convince you that you’re “more sane” than someone who’s not a conspiracy theorist. If I thought it would do any good, I’d take the time to destroy that article sentence by sentence.[/quote]
From what I’ve seen, “conspiracy theorists” tend to be right more often than not. All to often, they are ridiculed for many years before they are proven right. One should never accept the “official” version of a story until they do their own thorough and independent research. Sometimes, logic and reason are enough to disprove an “official” story.
