The world needs this book in todays day and age

In the modern world where Facebook is everyone’s current events news source, this book is needed and necessary. With modern algorithms it’s not very hard for a person to find the right information to fuel the fire of their fears. I feel this book gives a very unbiased and balanced take on a lot of modern conspiracy theories as well as shedding light on some new ones. If folks are open minded enough, I feel, this book can help them come back to reality. I actually have a few friends who have really been struggling since the pandemic that I will recommend this too.

For me.. overall the book was an excellent read (listen) that I enjoyed in its entirety; even though, at times it gets dry and I found it difficult to stay focused. I feel this issue may be able to be resolved with a different narrator, but in all fairness… this is basically a book of facts I’m sure it was difficult to narrate.

Great baseline, but Dismissive.

This is a decent introduction to the world of conspiracy theories at large. But it definitely takes the standpoint that the vast majority are false. The authors seem to cherry pick facts to fit their assumptions. It doesn't help that the narrator also adopts a dismissive, smug tone.

This Book is Idiotic

Hated it. This book is 100000% biased. It is absolutely ridiculous. Whatever you do, DO NOT buy this book !! On top of the entire book being 💩 The narrator's voice is also absolutely grating on your ears.

The title should be "Written by dummies"!

Basically the the entire 18 hours of this incredibly boring and one sided book is that if you do not 100% trust the government and if you have ever even thought there could have ever been a conspiracy in all of the world then you are a tin hat wearing physcopath. A typical woke liberal diatribe of listen and believe what I say because if you think different your nuts. Liberal gas lighting at its finest. Kudos to the dude who read this shit for 18 hours, he probably jumped off a bridge when he left the studio.

Classic “accept whatever the government tells you”

I like to listen or read positions opposite of mine. But this is completely outlandish and as an audiobook it is condescending to a point of making me furious. I am happy I listened to this nonsense but I would not suggest it for anyone with an open mind or who likes to ask questions when things don’t add up.
