A purity spiral trend on the right has been emerging for a while now but it has only gotten worse in recent years. Disbelief in the whackiest conspiracy is taken as a sign of disloyalty and anything other then the most retarded take makes you a shill. Examples include:
>you think jews are nepotistic and spiteful to their hosts?
>well I think jews are actually a cult of satanic baby eaters you deradicalization, shill!
>you think the pharmaceutical companies are greedy assholes who pray on the despairation of sick people?
>Well I think everything the pharmaceutical companies sell is poison and I'm taking wormwood extract to cure my cancer, you cuck!
>you think mega companies moved jobs overseas because the CEOs are amoral pieces of shit who care more about money than the future of their country?
>Well I think its all part of a plan to weaken the West and install communism, FED!
>you are worried about 5G because you think it will greatly enhance digital surveillance?
>well I think 5G will cause cancer and mass death, fag!
>you think the covid vaccine was bad because lockdowns were used as an excuse to attack political enemies and side effects were ultimately worse than the disease?
>well I think its all a part of the NWO depopulation agenda, pharmakike!
>you are worried about AI because of job loss, propaganda bots, and surveillance concerns?
>well I think AI is actually a demonic force in computer form, fag!
>you hate Hollywood movies because they are controlled by a few studios who push stale liberal trash?
>well I think Hollywood is putting secret symbols and predictive programming in their films to control the population, tranny!
Ect
It isn't enough to distrust the failing institutions, you need to believe they are part of a satanic plot as well. This has only gotten worse over time and I suspect it will only continue get worse over time. Is there any way this can be stopped before it collapses under the weight of its own bullshit into a flat earth singularity?
And I know many of you will claim that some of the crazier claims are pushed by bad actors, and you are probably right to some extent, but silly shit like germ theory denial and flat earth are becoming more common especially on the right. Is there a way to stop this?

(funny note about fiction, it's a lie)
Speaking of fictions, your position appears to be that what killed off Chinese people in the streets was 'weakened' by all the chinese deaths, such that the rest of the world went nominally unaffected?
>>391638>weakened' by all the chinese deathsHow many people even died from it in China? What was the lethality rate?
I never claimed that it was anything but a flu.
>>391637What are you talking about? Are you claiming that it was making people drop dead in the streets? Because I never said that.
>>391637What even is a "Covidian" to you? I never claimed the virus was deadly, I opposed lockdowns, and I didn't take the vaxx.
>>391637And don't you start getting cute with phrases like "Covidians", this isn't about choosing sides. This is about "absorb the material and make a determination for youself, and be okay with that".
Now, if you want to assert that your perspective is "better" or "more correct" than another person's, that's where you run into a problem.
>>391640Oh, let me check the CCP's listing for covid mortality, I'm sure it's accurate,...
>>391640>What are you talking about? Are you claiming that it was making people drop dead in the streets? Because I never said that.I'm saying that people dropping dead on the streets in China was theater, a staged psyop with all governments of the world falling in line with an invisible centralized, command. And those few African countries who didn't, their leaders were quickly dead. Noteworthy is the case of Belarus, the president didn't lock down and didn't play the music, but he was left alone.
>>391643NOW we have a LEGIT counter-argument!
>>391642>Oh, let me check the CCP's listing for covid mortality, I'm sure it's accurate,...Or any source of information.
Globohomo faggots were fearmongering about it as an excuse to lock down everything and reset our economies, but even in 2019 the lethality rate was less than 1% for healthy people who caught it.
A handful of people dying on livestreams does not mean the virus was killing people in mass.
>>391643>I'm saying that people dropping dead on the streets in China was theater, a staged psyop with all governments of the world falling in line with an invisible centralized, command.Alright then. I agree completely.
>>391645>A handful of people dying on livestreams does not mean the virus was killing people in massPlausible. What then is the explanation, since it was attributed to covid?
>>391645>A handful of people dying on livestreams does not mean the virus was killing people in mass.That was exactly what the Chinese government used to inflict terrorism on the population.
>>391643This isn't anything different from what I was saying. Idk what the disagreement here is, or how that makes me a "Covidian".
I thought it was fearmongering over something that was overall just a severe cold.
In 2019 and 2020, talking about the virus was considered to be "racist" and they wanted to sweep it under the rug. It was only when the realized the opportunity to reset the economy/politics that they even acknowledged it, and immediately after that they were fear mongering 24/7.
I don't go as far as to deny Germ Theory entirely, but if you think that makes me a "Covidian" even though I opposed their propaganda every step of the way, then I think that's proving OP's point about conspiracy purity spiralling.
>>391646EVERY death was attributed to covid in early 2020. People died from a whole host of issues.
And even if the commie-lung-AIDS killed them, that doesn't prove that it had an extreme killing rate, because China is a country of 1.4 billion people, so what could appear to be a large sample of deaths could actually be negotiable when you weigh the sample size with population.
>>391647Yes, I agree. Governments used it as an excuse to deprive people of their liberties.
Although for China in particular, I think they were being so draconian because the CCP is incredibly vain, and they didn't want the disease to become a national embarrassment.
[Read more] >>391649This is your last (you).
Yes, this is an argument from incredulity.
Are you suggesting that a virus that literally had people dying in the streets as they went about their daily business is the SAME virus that people like Dave Chappelle made jokes of?
Let's rewind a bit, here's a fun little factoid you might have seen when covid was popping off.
I have a couple of aunts who work as international firefighters. They were in Australia for the wildfires there. WHILE on scene, ONE of them got sick. You wanna know what the diagnosis was? Covid '19 (this was before the "outbreak" in February). She was fine, not even bed-ridden.
Again, this was before the 'outbreak'. I guess she didn't get the 'right' strain?
Covid 19 isn't a 'novel' strain, it's a made up name, a psyop, and you're an idiot who is more than well-illustrated as a waste of time. Thank you for playing, please tip your waitresses
[Read more] >>391655>gaslightingAdorable! Any more tricks?
>>391649>Every death was attributed to covid in early 2020That's like when commies say that "every death under the USSR per capita was attributed to communism so every death under capitalism per capita should be attributed to capitalism."
>>391654Fun fact, the firefighter in this case is morbidly obese
>>391657Yes actually. I shall now reveal myself. For I am actually the commander of the shill army at Eglin Airforce Base. For your disobedience and refusal to accept germ theory I will punish you by setting 5G mind control towers in your area to MAXIMUM POWER!
Let's reframe this.
I'm alleging (yes, I apologize for the argument from anecdote) that some 8-months prior to the 'official' outbreak, someone I personally know was medically diagnosed with "Covid 19".
By YOUR argument, she should have dropped dead, or had to at LEAST have taken time off work. I mean, if the virus goes from "people dropping dead" to "nothing happens when people riot in the streets", well that's a shitty half-life. What's more, 8 months before the outbreak, how is this bitch walking around like it wasn't nothing?
Wait, let me guess, it's cuz she got it in Straya, right? Cuz NOTHING in Straya is known for trying to kill you or - more to the point - being LESS GOOD at killing you.
Do go on. I lied about the (you)s, but this has long since ceased to be a serious/credible conversation so we're on the "all your arguments are lol" tier of 'the rules'

>>391661I honestly don't think it was all that deadly even in the beginning. A few chinks collapsing on camera does not mean that most people were collapsing or that collapsing was a common occurrence.
>>391666You can ask him. For you see the 5G mind control towers are actually controlled by Satan himself! Soon you shall be under his control!
>>391654>Are you suggesting that a virus that literally had people dying in the streets as they went about their daily business is the SAME virus that people like Dave Chappelle made jokes of?No, I did not say that. Don't put words in my mouth.
It was you who said it was deadly and killing people in the streets.
>WHILE on scene, ONE of them got sick. You wanna know what the diagnosis was? Covid '19 (this was before the "outbreak" in February). She was fine, not even bed-ridden.Yes. That's normal.
>I guess she didn't get the 'right' strain?Every strain has only a tiny percentile chance of fatality, less than 1%.
>it's a made up nameIt's named after the year it was discovered.
>a psyopIf it's a psyop, why did you say it was killing people in the streets? You are the only one in this thread who said that.
>>391657Were you abused as a child?
You act like an abused child. It's actually kind of sad.
>>391658Yes, I know. People were exaggerating the lethality out of
1. Panic
2. Propaganda
>>391661>By YOUR argument, she should have dropped dead, or had to at LEAST have taken time off work.I never said this. Nobody said this.
We just said that viruses get less deadly overtime. If the original strain was 0.01% deadly, it's probably even less than that now.
>Wait, let me guess, it's cuz she got it in Straya, right? No. It's because it had only a tiny chance of killing her in the first place.
>>391663>honestly don't think it was all that deadly even in the beginning. A few chinks collapsing on camera does not mean that most people were collapsing or that collapsing was a common occurrence.>>391664Just because you saw chinks collapsing on Tik Tok does not mean it was the bubonic plague. It's a country of 1.4 billion people: people die there all the time. 0.01% of 1.4 billion is still enough to go viral on social media.
[Read more] >>391661>this has long since ceased to be a serious/credible conversation so we're on the "all your arguments are lol" tier of 'the rules'Alright then. Let's talk about how your drunk uncle touched you to get your brain in its current state.
>>391668>It was you who said it was deadly and killing people in the streetsNo, what
I saw was people dead and dying in the streets, attributed to covid, at the time. If not covid - like (((they))) said
can we finally, officially correlate the chinese with jews? Cuz while geographically they ARE asian, but c'mon, most asians aren't trying to kill your descendents - what was it?
Cuz of all the covid ANYTHING (including economic downturn) the part I'm most interested in is the "why were people seemingly dead and dying".
I know, you hate to hear a broken record, but this is important
>>391669Lol, you wanna go THERE? Let's make it AWKWARD
>>391669He went to prison and was used as a fifi. That would mess anyone up.
How about instead of demanding answers to things we don't understand, we take a deep breath and consider it later, or not at all.
>>391673Close, I got tricked into asking for the Xbox
>>391673But while you contemplate what I mean by "Xbox", I'll point out that in jail/prison, even punks (official term) aren't referred to as fifis.
A fifi - for the uninitiated - is a very tightly wrapped sock with a condom (or whatever latex/rubber membrane) around it.
An improvized pocket-pussy.
Xbox is where you fish them out with a pool cleaning tool, from the main resevoir
I'm scared of the mental illness on display but I am just so captivated by the audacity of the sentences being typed out.
>>391679Sorry, I don't have pics or anything to validate my latest points Xp
And yes, for the record, this has been the unintended point.
Yes, it is preferred to have sources and links.
An absence of sources/links does not refute the argument.
An argument can be unvalidated and NOT be invalid, in fact it can be CORRECT
It's YOUR job to decide, instead of demanding that others "fight for your agreement"
>>391671Sure. Tell us your story.
>>391670>No, what I saw was people dead and dying in the streets, attributed to covid, at the time. If not covid - like (((they))) saidThe death rate was never, ever reported to be above a fraction of 1%.
>"why were people seemingly dead and dying".Because 0.01% of over a billion people is still a lot of people, even if your chance of actually dying from it is very low.
>>391683I have.
If you've been around for ANY duration - let alone all 8 years - you would be able to POINT to it.
You failed, are we done arguing unrelated nonsense? Are we done assuming that positions are invalid because unvalidated by 'official' sources?
If poster says something that rustles your jimmies, the correct phrase is (this goes likewise for jail/prison
or when dealing with infernals) "I would like to know why you think that".
>>391673It seems more like child abuse to me. 9/10 narcissistic, infantile assholes I've encountered online were products of child abuse.
>>391680More people need websites so when they see an article that influences their opinion they can link it, myself included.
>>391688You'll just have to imagine fishing "sock-puppets" with a long-handled pool screen
Meanwhile, on the subject of Conspiritard Purity Spiralling, we have a douchebag who thinks that his approval matters
>>391685>I have.Ah, so I was right. Predictable, considering your demonstrably broken psyche and emotional instability. Sad. Many such cases.
>If you've been around for ANY duration - let alone all 8 years - you would be able to POINT to it.Not everyone on this site is interested in your sausage backstory, believe it or not.
>>391687Nah, I'm bored and waiting for pizza to bake. This thread has already gone to shit, and watching you make a clown of yourself like you always is amusing.
>>391691You think
I'm the clown here? This is tuesday. If you want me to entertain you, there are SEVERAL threads, except you don't know it cuz you're a fucking newfaggot
>>391692>You think I'm the clown here?You and boom boom, lmao. It's funnier to watch you squirm though, because the boomer just posts unfunny Facebook meme.
>except you don't know it cuz you're a fucking newfaggotLol, I have been here ever since Atlas first posted his link to /qa/ in April 2017. I've witnessed your autistic meltdowns time and time again. You get more unhinged and pathetic every year. No wonder you were kicked off the staff.
But you don't have to believe me if that helps you COPE.
>>391691>This thread has already gone to shitThreads are trees, make a new branch. Let us consider ways that the conspiritard spiralling phenomenon could be fixed, what structural issue might be at play, practices that individuals could do do help, etc...
>>391694>Let us consider ways that the conspiritard spiralling phenomenon could be fixedI really don't know. I wish I knew.
>what structural issue might be at playA lot of them began to infest online rightwing forums in 2021-2022, likely encouraged by Covid forcing all of the boomers onto the Internet, and taking advantage of the anti-government sentiment that naturally came at the time. Governments all over the world has destroyed our economies and stripped us of our freedom, so everyone was skeptical of everything. It created an environment where tinfoil hatters felt welcome, and once given an inch they took a mile.
>practices that individuals could do do help, etI used to say "don't engage with them", but really even if you ignore them they fill up boards with their garbage while chasing content creators away.
>>391693Then you have no excuse, what are you trying to do here and now, other than be a problem that I have to go to lengths to address?
>other than be a problem that I have to go to lengths to address?
Actual lmao. Look everypony. The mentally ill retard thinks Anons are afraid of him.
You won't do shit, nigger.
