Closing out this thread on January 20th.
Why?
I have to admit, this coup attempt by a fascist President has totally eclipsed my interest in the JFK assassination debate. Both conspiracy theories touch upon weakening the people’s faith in Democracy, but this “Stolen Election” narrative is an order of magnitude more damaging, in my opinion.
Ultimately, my interest in the JFK assassination debate is fighting against a false narrative that attacks Democracy. And I think this forum should address any conspiracy theory that attacks Democracy. Yes, getting into a debate over a conspiracy debate on something that does not attack Democracy, like whether we need a wall or not, is a bad idea. Building a wall along the border is a dumb idea, but I don’t think doing so attacks peoples believe in Democracy.
In the end, I think the two conspiracy theories are closely related enough to be talked about on the same forum.
