Take, for example, the case of the Watergate scandal. Asking somebody to reasonably explain the event without reference to the notion of conspiracy is absurd, and so is asking somebody to explain NASA's product without reference to a conspiracy. Round Earthers who refuse to accept explanations which involve the conspiracy hold an unfair standard to the other side of the debate. What do you want us to do, just make up some excuse instead of calling it like it is? If there is actually a conspiracy, then saying so cannot be considered fallacious.
Wow! That's down right comical. Until I started lurking in this forum a couple months ago I had never once ever heard of a conspiracy that NASA was in beyond Fake moon landings. The moon landing fakes have been debunked so many times that the people who still believe it should be ashamed of themselves.
Your last sentence is like saying "it's not paranoia if they are really out to get you." or I'm not wrong if I'm right"
REers refuse to accept conspiracy ideas because they are just stuff plucked out of the air. Even the conspiracy compendium thread that FEers like to link to is full of made up of barely plausible ideas. Until someone can post a copy of some actual FACTS and hard evidence of any cover-up activity (in regards to the shape of the earth) , FE conspiracy theory will continue to be uniformly dismissed.
This does not present a double standard as you would like to believe. There are constant links to scientific websites, Historical data, videos, pictures, witnesses, people who have done conclusive evidence themselves, and all other manner of evidence. All of it is thrown out by FEers with a simple "its part of the conspiracy". Which I might add is a fine defense for anyone who does not have any method to counter such an overwhelming amount of evidence. Conspiracy is too easy to argue, and is undefeatable because it can be anything at any time and never needs proof. How anyone can ever claim ground in a conspiracy debate is beyond me.
This is a FE forum and the burden of proof is on the shoulders of RE. However FE cannot take the grand conspiracy, and pseudoscience, standpoint without ever going after the conventional hard evidence presented by the other side. This is why most people who visit think FE is a joke, and also why most members who post are trolls.
