  • Can anyone help me identify a CTH episode? They were talking about a Jeffrey Goldberg article about conspiracy theories, and they were basically like, “Fuck you. You sold the Iraq-WMD narrative, which was basically the biggest conspiracy theory in our lives.”

    I’m pretty sure it was over the summer, but I can’t remember if it was a regular episode or a Patreon episode.


  • Yeah. Honestly it probably has more to do with the affordances of the site design itself combined with the weird (but relatable) faith in *something big” happening (regardless of what that something is). That strange mix of memes, impending doom, and occasionally decent analysis just reminds me of the r/cth megathreads (especially during the primaries and start of COVID).

    I love it—even if the politics are kind of off.
