Head down the rabbit hole and feed your fascination for conspiracy
and controversy. Conspiracy theories--they're influential and
spread to sometimes irrational extremes. Why do people cling to
conspiracy theories so powerfully? Is there a way to separate the
possible from the impossible? Yes. Enter: Debunked. Conspiracy
theories pop up surrounding every major national and global
event--some are possible, some are not. TikTok influencer and
psychology professor Casey Lytle will teach you how to be an
intelligent consumer of "alternative" theories. Lytle's trademark
"project management approach" will help you discern possible from
impossible in the popular and controversial theories surrounding 10
national and global events. 9/11--No fewer than 10 alternative
theories have gained traction. But let's evaluate: Did the Twin
Towers really look like a controlled demolition? Would jet fuel
have to melt steel for the towers to collapse? What would it take
in hours and people to secretly plant enough explosives to bring
the buildings down without being discovered, and without being set
off by the impact and fires from the planes? All this and more in
Chapter 7. COVID-19--The vaccine implants a microchip used to track
people; the fatality rate has been wildly inflated; oh, and Bill
Gates is not only responsible for the virus but also the head of a
plot to use the virus as population control. School shooters--why
are they so easy to explain, but so hard to predict? In what ways
has the profile of a school shooter changed over the last 25 years,
and what has caused those changes? Are school shootings a new
phenomenon, or does the media simply make us more aware of them
when they happen? The chapter will cover Sandy Hook conspiracy
theories, as well as the psychology behind "truthers."
