It's not belief that makes any of these things true, it's facts.

I don't mind 'normal' people thinking I'm weird. Most people believe the lies about 9/11 and think we went to Iraq for revenge for something they did to US. All lies.

Bruh omg every word could be said by the flat earther you look down on. How did you not see that

"It's not belief that makes space lasers true, it's facts. Most people want to believe the lies about the world being round. All lies"

Actually the EXACT same method of analysis and logical positivism is how we prove the world is round and how we prove you're wrong about your fake 9/11 conspiracies

I agree, the world is round.
Unfortunately, you believe lies about 9/11. 3 controlled demolitions happened that day. The planes were real, but the buildings were rigged to drop.

Thats what the conspiritards ask. Asking that question is how you ended up in this mess, because someone answered it with some paranoid bullshit.

The correct thing to do is to clear your mind of pre-conceptions about a conspiracy and research the topic from scratch
