When conspiracy theorists try too hard to find a conspiracy


It’s cold across much of the country. There’s snow and ice on the ground.

IT’S A CONSPIRACY!

At least, some stupid people are trying to imagine alien weirdness going on, including this desperate ignorance from Candace Owens, who thinks it’s artificial because it doesn’t melt at 30°F.

I looked at some of the comments. Many are trying to explain to her that the freezing point of water is 32°F, and that 30 is less than 32, and some mention that the temperature in Connecticut when she was horrified by frozen water was actually 25°F. Others are agreeing that yes, it’s a government or alien conspiracy.

Remember this when Candace Owens trots out another bizarre conspiracy theory. I think the lawsuit by Brigitte Macron against her is going to go well.

    A user-added context blurb is one of the nice things about Twitter these days.

    In a time when it seems like other Twitter clones are trending in the other direction and trying to give OP total control over the thread and who gets to reply to it, Twitter has infrastructure in place that lets rando commenters deflate a dumb propaganda thread before it sprouts legs.

    Candace Owens is flat-earth level stupid, i.e., struggling to hang on to a single-digit IQ.
