Well, I agree with that for the most part. Though I think it is important to point out that the official institutions are the real conspiracy theorists. To support that claim, I would take your comment about overconfidence to the point of hubris and expand on it.
In 2020, the world was bathed in a novel virus with unknown origins and unknown outcomes on the populace. Hindsight has pinned the likelihood of the origins to gain-of-function laboratories in Wuhan and the outcomes being similar to that of the flu. To this day, the institutions downplay both of those points.
In response to this pandemic, Trump and congress (much to my dismay) initiated Operation Warp Speed to incentivize drug companies to develop a vaccine. Once the product was unleashed on the populace, it was attributed by the institutions as safe and effective. These two words have very specific meanings, and for this claim to be true, usually years of research is needed to make those claims truthfully. So even if this was true for these vaccines, it was not appropriate to say this without the aforementioned research. And to quote Coffee Talk: the vaccine was neither safe nor effective. I'm verklempt!
Now, do vaccines cause autism? Again, the institutions say no, and they have studies to prove it. I say that myopic studies can be set up to indicate whatever the industries that create the studies want them to say.
Are people suffering from more mental disorders and need to be medicated? Are people suffering more from health disorders that need medical intervention? Again, the institutions say yes to both of those. It couldn't be because we are fed poison from industrial processing masked as food products (seed oils, folic acid, high fructose corns syrup). The medical field still largely doesn't even factor in diet into patient health outside of caloric intake.
All of these are examples of the hubris displayed by the "knowledge" obtained by top-down institutions sold to the public.
Say what you will about RFK (Jr), but he is a threat to the establishment that permeates the above issues that I highlighted and more.
Well, I empathize. I have hated almost everyone in government (presidents included) since I've been old enough to notice. As a Serb who grew up in the US during the bombing of Serbia in the 90's and seeing the blatant misinformation being marketed to the West, I was set on a path of healthy distrust from the outset. Which is why I never believed in the two-party system, as they all just looked like the same cult with different trappings.
And to all the fucks you have given, I would like to add: fuck what this corruption has done to the language, science, and the division of the people.
Happy Halloween. I hope you don't hate my pumpkin too much
