Is everything a fucking conspiracy now?

Understand, mainly they are not saying what they believe, they are saying what would need to be true to justify what they are planning.

Fascists don't like intellectuals.

Yes great explanation! So the burden of proof (which is like impossible when arguing with those bad faith actors) is on you and not them.

And "journalists" run with it...

You don't owe Nazis shit, and the liberal media was complicit in their rise back then, too.

Yes and it's bullshit. They'll believe the most ridiculous shit but will turn their noses up at a science book.

The truth is not relevant anymore. Its more important how something make you feel than if is truth or not. What's why alt-right its so popular and the fake news are so easy to spread.

If there is reality that points at corporations being bad, people they care about being bad, or climate change the radical right will create a set of lies to hide the truth, so yes, except for things that aren't politically controversial
