Yes, they only spend time and effort on the ones that are true and, if exposed, would threaten the establishment. How many mainstream articles do you read about the "Reptilian" theory, that reptilian aliens live among us and control world events?
Exactly. This is what I mean.
I don't have time right now, but maybe someone could search for Youtube rants, vlogs, videos, etc. about "Reptilians among us" and see if Youtube puts up the Encyclopedia Brittanica fact-check right above the video description, like they did with EVERY SINGLE ONE of the "Moon Landing is a Hoax" videos that I managed to find -- the ones that weren't totally invisible in search.
If they are concerned with people not being deceived or believing in error, why not refute EVERY silly theory, if they're all equally silly and false? False is false. There aren't degrees of false. If the Moon Landing is a Hoax theory is more believable, then WHY is it more believable?
Why is there so many "convincing" evidence we never actually landed on the moon?
I can relate somewhat, being the moderator of CathInfo. If someone says something ridiculous about an organization, etc. sometimes I'll let it stand just because it makes them look like an idiot, and there is no danger anyone will believe it. On the other hand, more subtle propaganda, and zealots or possible agents with sophistication and clever psychological techniques, etc. I am more apt to ban from CathInfo, because of the danger of confusion and deception to readers. I always ask myself, "Are they dangerous? Is an uneducated, innocent layman going to be convinced by this?"
There has to be some truth, at least, to suck people into believing something.
Sometimes you have to let the little boy speak that "the emperor has no clothes".
What other scientific breakthrough wasn't followed up AT ALL for 50 years?On the other hand, movies are often one-and-done. When is the last time we had a sequel to 2001: A Space Odyssey? The "2010" sequel was many years ago. Just like the "moon landings".Out here in the real world, you don't have discoveries or advancements like cell phones, LCD monitors, WIFI, gigabit ethernet, etc. that are proudly announced to the world, and then promptly shelved forever.
