It’s a poor use of time to give every conspiracy theory “due diligence”, as you put it.

For instance: what if it’s aliens? What if it’s the mice-people? What if it’s mind control by giant squid? What if it’s a conspiracy being lead by the silica gel industry?

Do you want to do your due diligence on those, or would you discard them out of hand as patently ridiculous?

Are you questioning the facts of Irrawaddy's reporting?

The lesson was supposed to show you should have not assumed "aliens", when it is actually "reality".

I want people to adjust their nuance, but that seems difficult.

Begging the question. The whole issue is, what actually is just a conspiracy theory?
