Conspiracy theories. How (not) to become a conspiracy theorist
The birds are not real, Australia does not exist, and the number 39 is cursed. Sounds like a silly fiction that no one would ever believe, doesn't it? In fact, these are conspiracy theories, in the reality of which thousands of people around the world are convinced.
In his book, international political scientist Maksym Yakovlev explores a wide variety of conspiracy theories and explains how conspiracists see the world and what tools they use to create their conspiracy mosaics.
Freemasons, Jews and Reptilians. COVID-19 and Sweden, Denmark and minks. Necrocommunists and conspiracy multipliers. How does the Dunning-Kruger effect actually work? Why did the Titanic sink and why are time travelers here?
Maxim talks about conspiracies in sports and at Eurovision, about the death of Princess Diana, Obama's victory in the elections with the help of weather manipulation, and also about the fact that the Roman Empire was allegedly invented by the Spanish Inquisition, and Ukraine - by Freemasons. With the help of exercises and a series of surveys, you will be able to check whether you yourself tend to believe in such conspiracy theories, and understand how to construct your own.
