Shadowland

Watching a documentary series called Shadowland on Peacock. Started watching episode 1 and so far, it's pretty good. Shows how people can get pulled into these conspiracies and they actually believe them. These idiots believe in Sovreign Citizen theory also.

It goes pretty far in exposing how conspiracy theories work and how intractable they are. After watching this I have less hope that people are going to change.

Its well done. But its terrifying because it shows how much danger we are in.

Note: I signed up for Peacock to watch Kevin Costner's Yellowstone, but I've found a lot of good films there.
