Like a lot of you, I've been really upset about this whole pizzagate thing. I started doing my own research. Hours and hours, I obsessed over it. I lost sleep.
I was provoked by Alex Jones, I'm a long-time listener. 10 years. I believe 911 was a massive coverup. I think Sandy Hook was a false flag.
But this pizzagate thing... yeah, there's something here, but it's Comet Ping Pong. The hive-mind paranoia, that I'm also guilty of spreading, is a problem.
Once I had the "a-ha" moment (got it earlier today when I finally figured out that there WAS no basement in comet ping pong) that maybe, just maybe, this conspiracy theory isn't all I thought it was, I decided to research conspiracy theories in general. I found this article on the Psychology of Conspiracy Theories to be very interesting.
Maybe you'll read it, maybe you won't. I know I certainly won't have any impact on this investigation, and pizzagate will go down in history as one of the most bizarre internet phenomenons..
But.. if you are interested.. Check it out. If not - well, that's okay too.
Just trying to stay objective.

I'm picking up what you are putting down, and I'm not denying that there is quite possibly some weird thing goin on with Podesta and Alefantis, but honestly I think the Comet Ping Pong thing is just BS.
A LOT of speculation with zero, absolutely zero proof of anything. Maybe it will turn out to be something, maybe it won't - but one thing is obvious: the researchers in this forum, for the most part, won't give up and will defend nearly every rabbit-hole leap of conjecture even while ignoring facts that prove otherwise. For example: The whole traffic camera thing. People are claiming it's pointed towards Comet Ping Pong right now, it's not. It's clearly CLEARLY facing Northwest, and CPP is on the SE corner of the intersection - but when I point it out, I'm called a shill, and people blast me with 100000 other posts that said the traffic camera is pointing at comet ping pong as proof. (if you look at the camera, for crissakes, its NOT, but I digress).. anyway.. people are latching onto complete and total misinformation, regurgitating it, and it's giving the whole investigation a black eye. Very few people are being objective, seems everyone is looking for something that they can't quite find.... I'm giving my addiction into pizzagate up today. I finally saw the light. This whole thing is maybe 5% truth and 95% bullshit.. But yes, there is possibly some shenanigans going on with Podesta and Alefantis.. I will admit that.
