Discussion Is believing in conspiracy theories a sign that something is wrong with you?

[nigelhernandez]

That's what a girl in my class told me, she said that if you regularly follow conspiracies you must either be a) dumb or b) mentally ill. This was brought up as a I found out that David Icke was banned from YouTube

People definitely treat you that way

There's nothing wrong with you if believe in conspriacy theories. A handful of them turned out to be true with evidence and such coming out within the last few years. Look at MK Ultra.

Watching David Icke for two minutes definitely adds some validity to those that call conspiracy theorists a bunch of nutcases.

5G, Lizard people ruling the world. The guys a barmpot, but he has a massive following.

I find it all entertaining personally, the wackier the better.

yeah i think if you follow conspiracy theories despite the evidence pointing against them thats a mental illness probably.

It's your opinion and you're entitled to have that. Doesn't make you any more or any less mentally ill, doesn't even mean you're mentally ill. Don't listen to comments like that just be you.
