It’s no surprise when conspiracists can’t agree on basic facts, let alone an entire theory. The problem is simple: faith-based ideology is the antithesis of reason- and when you try to combine the two, you arrive at an amazing contradiction. Since the conclusions of conspiracists are not arrived at by any scientific means- since reason […]

When it’s time to pick the low-hanging fruit
Monday, June 4, 2007
The conspiracists are starting to lose their appeal to me.
After 5 years of dealing with silly claims, threats, harassment, lies, accusations, irrational and inconsistent behavior- I’m really starting to see the darker side of conspiracy theories. It stopped being funny to me a few days ago after I had received my 3rd threat in 2 […]
Distractions
Sunday, March 25, 2007
As is often the case with the Bruce Lee effect, I’ve been far too busy dealing with the conspiracists who are avoiding the Challenge, and instead demanding that I answer questions about their “evidence”. Since it is often the case that this “evidence” was debunked ages ago, the response to them should be short and […]
Conspiracism, in short
Wednesday, February 28, 2007
I’ve been working on a series of videos detailing what conspiricism is and how to deal with it. In the interim I have not posted any videos or blog entries, and I’ve spent too much time battling subjectivists on JREF.
However, burnvictim77 has posted a video which should be noted. It details some of the things […]
The War for Reality

It’s not simply a lack of understanding that most conspiracists use to make their argument, it is- at times- a total rejection of reality. When caught making statements which are fallacious […]

Nico called me a parrot
Thursday, February 8, 2007
Well, ok- it’s probably not the Nico- but he’s probably not who he says he is, anyway. He claims to be representing Alex Jones. The following is a good example of the “if you’re not with us, you’re against us- and you’re paid by the government” type mentality that conspiracists are supposedly against, but engage […]
9/11 Myths linked my video
Wednesday, February 7, 2007
The “What’s New” page on 9/11 Myths linked to my “Debunking Conspiracists” video earlier today.
Woot.
totovader has also been receiving criticisms for daring to ask questions of 9/11 “inside job” theories. See his response in “Debunking Conspiracists” (some of the material seems familiar! but if we’re not making movies, then it’s good someone else is doing […]
