    It’s not skepticism. Skepticism involves rational, critical examination. Their position is irrational denialism, or contrarianism.

    By calling it skepticism the media is sane-washing their nonsense.

      Yeah. It’s conspiracy mongering. I don’t even like calling these things conspiracy theories since they aren’t theories. It’s just intended to scare people. It’s conspiracy mongering.
