The BBC’s specialist disinformation reporter Marianna Spring brought together a dad who got in touch with her about a coronavirus conspiracy theory and an expert in the field. They discussed fact and fiction, and demonstrated some tips on how to talk about conspiracy theories.

How do we deal with global traitors and mass murderers ? Sadam probs killed less people and he was hung on camera ? Tell me if I’m wrong ? What about the media companies who have been bought and experts who have been threatened to not tell the truth ? The Nuremberg trials will be nothing compared to this , these evil people need to be brought to justice

Hmmm yes the lab leak conspiracy theory – a conspiracy theory that the MSM was working with big tech to silence scientists with concerns. Concerns that the Wuhan lab may have leaked a bat virus modified by scientists to make it more infectious to humans.
Or Hunter Biden’s laptop conspiracy theory – well some news organisations peomulgated the conspiracy theory that this was Russian disinformation. But it was not. It was actually his laptop and likely would have changed the election outcome if it was taken seriously. It was the BBC promulgating conspiracy theories.

No actual checkable facts were given to support the debunking.
"visible reality is a cover up for some sinister plot"
"Avoid sweeping dismissals and saying You're wrong"
"Yes coronavirus has been patented. Yes by the institution that you mentioned. Yes
Bill Gates funded that institution.
But what very often happens is that these kernels of truth, at some point, lead from.. . the undeniable to the unbelievable"
Well, there it is!
Nothing denied and an unbelievable bit of gaslighting.

The greatest establishment for telling lies is now talking about conspiracy theories. I can’t stop laughing 😂
As we have seen again and again and again how these so called conspiracies have actually been fact all along. Only the sheeple and woke weirdos seem to t ones believing in the crap the comes out of the BBC. Most of their articles are either mocking people or proposing ill intentioned suggestions for those who have paid them to do. Do your own research and enlighten yourselves with the truth or just be a sheeple if you lack intelligence.

"The word theory, to me, suggests it's just someone's imagination." You just described quite well your own contradiction and possibly biased opinion.
People in Government agencies and "Healthcare Professionals (or Healthcare Gustapo) saying "COVID vaccine by Maderna and Phiser…," is "safe" have no basis in "fact" as no mRNA has ever been used with any degree of success…mRNA is breakthrough science, in theory, not in fact. Research scientists working in labs on test animals have reported and documented (front-line real science, Sir), that as regards mRNA use for treatment and protection against Corona Virus's they have yet to find a solution to the effect of the "second" injections' triggering a Cytokine Storm (…plus other negative autoimmune responses)and causing permanent unexpected alterations/damage or death to the laboratory test animals. Therefore, not having solved this one concern, alone, and yet rolling out a "98 to 99%" (claimed) bogused, untested or verified "vaccine" is theory…not fact of efficacy against Covid-19,". There is no proof it will work (in fact there is more evidence it won't, just like your stupid mask wear, plus, no one knows the risk-benefit long term impact(s). You are a bogus "conspiracy theorist researcher" exhibiting Confirmation Bias.

Theory is used in mainstream science as well theory of gravity the big bang theory and it's an unproven theory but the best at that time until a better one comes along or has more backing

Quite alarming to think that this video has more thumbs down than thumbs up!! I think people are just unhappy with their lot in life (with or without the Covid pandemic) and are lashing out looking for someone to blame, and a celebrity/rich person who seems to have it all is an easy target.
There can be no dispute that there is gross inequality in the world but this has to be fought above ground, not down a rabbit hole.
