    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted Mahan of a thousand stims

    It's not bizarre. Antisemitism (particularly an extreme form like Holocaust denial) is a conspiracy theory. So is antivax. Conspiracy theorists tend to embrace more than just one conspiracy theory, often many conspiracy theories.https://twitter.com/sentinelm/status/1003470229668687872 …

    There’s a bizarre overlap between anti-vaxxers and anti-Semites, some of which has actually shown up in this thread. If you were paying attention to people who aren’t yourself, you would have noticed.

        Replying to @gorskon

        I’ve noticed that if a person believes in one conspiracy theory, they tend to believe in them all. It’s like that part of the brain was paralyzed at age 4. Ask any preschooler how a candy bar went missing & you’ll hear an Alex Jones level story.

        The funniest part is when they believe them all eeeeeeexcept that last (arbitrary) one they totally dismiss as nonsense. 🤣 Like everything—flat earth, trutherism, climate change hoax, bigfoot, pizzagate, etc.—all true, but [whatever] is just ridiculous and "makes them look bad."

        Spend 30 seconds clicking around any conspiracy theory site and you'll find anti-semitism.

        I think Gorski has gone LOTR in the past and called it, “the one conspiracy that binds them all” or something.

        Usually confined to ones with similar mechanisms though. “Crank Magnetism” doesn’t hold up when conspiracy theories aren’t consistent with one another.

        Anti-vax might not be anti-Semitic but anti-Semite conspiracists might be more likely to be anti-vax
