You need to take great care to avoid typos and factual errors, because conspiracy theorists will exploit them to discredit you.

The other day I read something saying that Louis Farrakhan himself is a Scientologist. It turns out that he endorses Dianetics and auditing but insists that he is not a Scientologist. The Nation of Islam now runs Dianetics courses itself.

Um, they’ll do that anyway. 
I’m really tired of all of us worrying how they’re going to twist shit, because they twist shit no matter what…

This sent me down an interesting rabbit hole.

Family Blames Pfizer Shot After Their 18-Year-Old Healthy Daughter Dies Suddenly From Unknown Cause | The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft
The documentary’s twitter page retweeted Alex Jones today and back in July interacted with a post claiming the old “you don’t need to pay taxes” scam…

This was super disturbing. I was not expecting the tie into End Times Are Nigh Christianity, but I suppose given the most reliable predictor of whether someone will believe a batshit crazy conspiracy theory is whether they believe in any other batshit crazy conspiracy theory, I should have.

And the “kiss but no tongue” claim of sticking to just Dianetics isn’t actually true, but two cults trying to merge their mindfucks is a tricky business.
