Bad days aren’t a detour— they mean you’re right on track #TEDTalks
One month before the Rio Olympics, runner Alexi Pappas couldn’t hit her splits in practice. She was begging her watch to change its mind. Then her coach told her to take it off — and shared the best advice she’s ever received. That single piece of wisdom led her to break a national record and…

Extremely important message. I had different beliefs 20 years ago from today. Criticizing me as a “whacko” among other things, wasn’t what made me change my mind. The insults did exactly this, and pushed me further from wanting to have any kind of productive conversations with anybody who I disagreed with.

What if the very thing that fuels those who believe in “conspiracy theories” isn’t belonging or some kind of external reward? What if their primary motive really is the pursuit of truth and those who ridicule them are the ones who value tribalism, emotion and ego over what is real? Given the number of “conspiracies theories” of the past that are considered true today, it may be wise for us to listen more closely to those we’ve convinced ourselves are on the fringe. Who knows? We may discover that we’re the ones out of touch with reality and that the people we once thought were out of their minds were actually right all along.

There’s nothing wrong with asking questions in pursuit of the truth. The problems come when people refuse to accept the answers and admit they were wrong. I mean there are people who honestly believe the earth is flat. How much evidence and explanation do you give a person before you can write them off as insane? No, not every position is valid. Some people are just idiots and crazy.

People who claimed that the virus started in a lab in Wuhan were called conspiracy theorists.
@Dnttou0497
May 7, 2026 at 7:45 pm
I think those people are the ones who started the virus in order to break down the entire world order. In fact, it’s the conspiracy theorists themselves behind everything. They’re the actual illuminati.

first thing you should do is stop calling them Conspiracy Theorists. since the Epstein files pretty much confirmed every conspiracy theory, you should call us The Conscious 😜

Earth is flat and stationary, most important people in the world are fallen angels who can shapeshift into human forns. Blood and children are their currency. All comes from babylon where they perfected idolatry to the last drop of blood. All mountains are petrified giants. Before the great flood there were beings the size of skyscrapers. Elon musk is Werner von braun. Hit me up if you need more fun facts
