Punked

Also known as fun with conspiracy theory. Watch the video and see how people end up believing what they want to believe.

Couldn't hear it.

Hmmmmm...

Best inoculation against conspiracist thinking I've seen -- for the dose is easy to take -- is the Illuminatus! trilogy. Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson.

Next best is probably Lerner's Why People Believe Weird Things. Nonfiction, with a chapter for each of the major mass delusions of our time. The chapter on Holocaust denial is especially... um, illuminating.

Good stuff!!!!!!! :D
