| "History is written by the victors" is not merely for the physical but for memes as well. The only alternative histories that remain must be the ones most open to ridicule for our enjoyment _and_ initiation. Initiation is much easier when the only alternative narrative is literally insane. In many 'conspiracy theories' there are often curiosities, contradictions, or straight up open questions. Roswell was an actual conspiracy to hide Project Mogul. [1] The US government conspired and lied to convince the public it was just a 'weather balloon', when it was very obviously something else to witnesses. This truth was only revealed to the public (relatively) recently. Your other examples are very current and are politically difficult if not dangerous to address with an open mind. Would you allow someone to challenge any of your _beliefs_ on racism, nazism, climate-change, vaccines, etc? I'll give some examples of wrongthink questions: "What other pogroms did Zionists instigate? [2][3][4]", "Was Stalin the real 'Hitler'?", "Other than Katyn, what else did USSR try to pin on Hitler?". "How could there have been _no_ atrocity propaganda during WW2? [5]". These questions (and more!) might make you a racist anti-semitic nazi sympathizer. Does anyone remember vaccine enhanced RSV? Nope, lol crazy anti-vaxers with crazy theories of government mind-control or something. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Mogul#Roswell_incident
