Uproarious . . . [Phillips and Elledge] pair the abundant good humor of this book with a warning about the corrosive effects of conspiracy theories' The Times From the Satanic Panic to the anti-vax movement, the moon landing to Pizzagate, it's always been human nature to believe we're being lied to by the powers that be (and sometimes, to be fair, we are). But while it can be fun to indulge in a bit of Deep State banter on the group chat, recent times have shown us that some of these theories have taken on a life of their own - and in our dogged quest for the truth, it appears we might be doing it some damage. In Conspiracy, Tom Phillips and Jonn Elledge take us on a fascinating, insightful, and often hilarious journey through conspiracy theories old and new, to try and answer a vital question for our times: how can we learn to log off the QAnon message boards, and start trusting hard evidence again?
