Debunked / Casey Lytle.

Lytle, Casey, (author.).

Summary:
Conspiracy theories pop up surrounding every major national and global event—some are possible, some are not. TikTok influencer and psychology professor Casey Lytle will teach you how to be an intelligent consumer of “alternative” theories. Lytle’s trademark “project management approach” will help you discern possible from impossible in the popular and controversial theories surrounding 10 national and global events. 9/11—No fewer than 10 alternative theories have gained traction. But let’s evaluate: Did the Twin Towers really look like a controlled demolition? Would jet fuel have to melt steel for the towers to collapse? What would it take in hours and people to secretly plant enough explosives to bring the buildings down without being discovered, and without being set off by the impact and fires from the planes? All this and more in Chapter 7. COVID-19—The vaccine implants a microchip used to track people; the fatality rate has been wildly inflated; oh, and Bill Gates is not only responsible for the virus but also the head of a plot to use the virus as population control. School shooters—why are they so easy to explain, but so hard to predict? In what ways has the profile of a school shooter changed over the last 25 years, and what has caused those changes? Are school shootings a new phenomenon, or does the media simply make us more aware of them when they happen? The chapter will cover Sandy Hook conspiracy theories, as well as the psychology behind “truthers.”
