I totally agree. It's funny how people will believe that the media and western governments were complicit in pushing the Holocaust exaggerations, and yet they believe the same media and governments about the moon. It's hard to see how people who are J-woke continue to cling to blatant propaganda about the Apollo missions. I'd like to think most of them haven't really thought about it or looked into the evidence much, because it's pretty obvious once you are open to the viewing the evidence objectively. On the other hand, it could be further evidence of how our own biases and beliefs affect how we see evidence. I think a lot of people on the far right tend to see Apollo as a symbol of white greatness, so they don't want to think about it being faked-- that would mean that we didn't achieve the "greatest feat of mankind". Of course it being faked was pretty impressive itself-- imagine how hard it is to hoax the entire world. Us European descendants have plenty to be proud of-- western civilization, constitutional government, modern technology of all sorts, including nuclear weapons, lasers, computers, the internet, etc. There's no need to pad our history with hoaxes just to feel good about our race.

Really smiled when I read this. I agree with everything you said and I have never considered that sustaining all this space fakery in the eyes of so many people is an impressive achievement in itself. Sad but true.

I have heard that belief in the Apollo missions is far lower in Asian and Eastern European countries but can’t say from personal experience.
