#2 Conspiracy theories - Why coronavirus and vaccine conspiracies are implausible

"The tricky thing about conspiracy theories is that sometimes they’re true. This is a point that conspiracy theorists often bring up and we cannot simply dismiss them because it’s true, and we will lose credit if we simply deny it. But does that mean we should always presume any conspiracy theory is plausible until proven otherwise? Are they really all on equal footing? Of course not. Here’s why."

Political polarization is one of the big problems of our time. That's why I started a series of dialogues where I have friendly disagreements over controversial topics with a variety of guests. These conversations are guided by three core principles: scout mindset, non-violent communication, and radical honesty. When I'm not disagreeing with guests, I read my blog posts about atheism, rationality, philosophy, science, and sociopolitical issues. I have a BSc in computer engineering, an MA in analytic philosophy, and I volunteer at secular humanist and effective altruist organizations.
