There are so many of these deluded flights of paranoia and they have been around for a long time.

If you haven't looked into those basements of hysteria, unsubstantiated claims and theories that come from people who think of fact checking as a wasted effort, then you may not want to know more about this growing threat to our collective sanity.

Even countries like Russia and China, etc. are capitalizing on these deluded "truth" seekers who deal with mostly admixtures of reality and fantasy and live on a steady diet of false equivalences and fallacies. They seem to live in an alternative reality and when they start to act on it, it even becomes dangerous as in harmful and deadly.
