I have family that fled Europe during the war. They were not Jewish, they were Magar (Gypsies) from eastern Austria. My grandmother had some newspaper clipping about them moving to Mount Angel Oregon to be with their German in-laws.
I don't agree with, but can kind of understand how people might believe that 9-11 was an inside job, or that the moon landing was faked (temporarily, I don't know anyone who believes it was perma-faked, just that it was faked by Kubrick so it looked like we went in 1969, and then we went a year or 2 later) though I know full on deniers are out there), or people who think the Illuminati or whatever are ruling the world, but to deny this....the deaths of so many people, when there is SO MUCH evidence, it makes me want to punch someone.
To be clear, I don't believe any of that crap, but I know people who do. I even know a lady who really believes the earth is hallow and reptile aliens live there and are the real rulers of the earth....or some bat shit thing. It has a name, but honestly, who can keep track of these lunatic ideas?
Honestly, thinking about all the people I know who believe batshit crazy things makes me depressed.
