They Already Don't Respect You...So Stop Doing This
Description
Stop Apologising for Conspiracy Thinking: A Christian Case for Saying the Truth
I respond to Rich the Fourth’s discussion of conspiracy thinking and argue that qualifying statements like “I’m not a conspiracy theorist” don’t help, because mainstream academic and institutional audiences have already written Christians and alternative thinkers off as crazy. Using examples such as Europe’s mass immigration and the dissolution of nation-states, Epstein, COVID/Fauci, and broader claims about institutional corruption, I contend that what sounds “wacky” only does so because the people behind these events are irrational and because modern sensibilities have been manipulated. I say truthers should stop seeking respectability, wear the label with confidence, and build a parallel worldview that questions all narratives, emphasising that the solution is ultimately spiritual rather than political.
