I'm all for the Descartes method, but this pattern of Gish Galloping against not just common knowledge but things with millions of hours of research behind them is weird. Who's trying to see what bullshit they can get people to believe? Conspiracy websites are the worst. They already have a contingent base used to questioning everything. And *if * there is an adversarial agency trying to discredit a group, what better way to do it than to get them to parrot garbage? Then, even the critical thinking non-true-believers get lumped in by association.
