Covid denier

Normal ish person here. Bit left wing and feminist. Started talking to a chap on dating app who early on said something about vaccines that made me wonder if I had misheard him. Turns out he is a full blown fruitloop. Covid denier. Anti vaccines. Medicine will kill you. The WHO are planning to cull populations with vaccines. Chem trails. Reading anti semitic anti feminist and book burning type activists.
What the fudge? How did i end up here? I get that people are entitled to their own opinions but cannot do with this. Am I being unreasonable to say conspiracy theorists are just wrong and unhinged?

They walk among us, and the most powerful country the world is run by one 😁. Best avoided if at all possible.

I still can't get head round that.
The most powerful man on earth is deranged.

Ooooh conspiracy theorists and dogs tonight. I just need Prince Andrew and 'I earn £300k but feel poor' and then I have bingo! 🥳

There's one of these in my extended family.

He was always an oddball and this is the oddball hole he's chosen to go down. Full on anti vax, MAGA hat wearing Farage supporting black hole. He lives in a market town in Somerset and apparently it's the rest of us who are WRONG.

If you are looking for this kind of conspiracy the internet sucks you in to a whole other batshit universe and if you're of a type that's the end of that.

Same applies to people who say climate change doesn’t exist. I know several unfortunately. Oh and the people who still think the MMR causes autism. Gahhh!
