Conspiracy Theories: Real & Imagined (Mostly Imagined) PODCAST

by Austin Petersen

Did you hear about the government snow? Last week citizens across the South were freaking out because they thought that the snow wasn’t melting when they held their lighters up next to it. People were quick to claim that the government was creating chemical snow to distract us from tyranny. One commenter wrote: Some skeptics tie the fake snow to a wider and older conspiracy regarding “geo-engineering” and the fear that the government is manipulating the weather to use as a weapon.

Real skeptics were quick to point out the scientific reasoning behind why the snow didn’t melt. But despite that, the rumors still persist. Are conspiracy theorists ever going to learn from their mistakes? Well that depends on if they listen to this freedom report podcast where we discuss conspiracy theories, both real… and imagined.
