If you reject authoritative sources of information as part of a conspiracy, then you will likely reject any information that can disprove the conspiracy. Any information that contradicts the conspiracy, or lack of information that would prove the conspiracy, are part of the conspiracy."

It’s especially frustrating because there •is• election manipulation happening in plain sight: voter suppression, gerrymandering, a vast media empire of right-wing falsehood, microtargeted disinformation from billionaires and hostile foreign states alike, GOP- and Putin-backed grifters posing as left-leaning third party candidates and then just pocketing the donations and disappearing —
