A chat with a stranger at the library in Boise made me rethink how I talk about conspiracy theories.

He said, 'I don't need you to prove my theory wrong, I need you to show me a better story,' which completely changed my approach to these debates.

But is it really that big of a deal though?

I can barely defend my lunch order, so who am I to judge?
