Is there a name for this type of person?

[cheesecadet]

When someone always says things are fake like the Manchester Arena bombing, that scheming people were behind it and deaths didn't occur. Seems to have weird theories for things.

Also judging people on looks all the time, fat people etc, being stubborn and persistent lateness. Are all these things linked?

Fantastist?

Conspiracy theorist?

Tosser?

The first bit:
"Conspiracy theorists"?
"Tin foil hat wearers"?
"Flat earthers"?

The last part, no idea.

First paragraph....conspiracy theorist
Second paragraph......arrogant,self centred, judgemental prick.

Arseholes.

This person sounds deranged to me. I hope he/she isn’t someone you’re close to OP. A fantasist, denier, delusional, vain, judgmental or just plain idiot might do.

Daft covers it

Haha thanks, loving these replies!

Antagonist

Someone I have to get along with!

I could probably do a list of 'sweary insults in alphabetical order' but I'd probably get banned from MN.

Bellend.

If you have to get on with them just say “you know that’s offensive nonsense don’t you” with a cheerful smile.

Regarding the judging looks. “well is just as well none of us knows what everyone else thinks about us, it might not be flattering”

You can say what you like if you are calm, polite and smile. Took me years to learn this lesson.

Arrogant know-all.

Wankers? Knobs? Boring assholes?

Just say ‘you are one of those then?’ with a mocking laugh.

What @TossDaily said.

Sounds like someone that follows Infowars and thinks Jordan Peterson is a philosophy. I'd be giving a really - hugely - wide berth.

And telling HR if he's making constant comments about women's looks and presentation at work - that's hostile.

If it's not a colleague but extended family, maybe turn your eye rolls into facial yoga?

Wanksocks

Nutters.

I know one, I used to like her until she argued with someone who had been at the Manchester arena that it actually hadn't happened.

First bit: are they a bit paranoid?

Second bit: arsehole

It's my ex!

I love a conspiracy, things arn't always what they seem, question everything, the truth is out there.

If that makes me a knob, then so be it.

Whatever you do, don't try to argue with someone like this. It's like oxygen to a flame. They love to 'educate' people. Smile and nod and congratulate yourself on the ex part.

Oh and he's a big risk taker and thinks the law doesn't apply to him!
