12:19:32 From Naomi Morgan to Host and Panelists:

	Yes, Behind The Curve was great!
12:19:59 From Jimi Wilson to Everyone:
	Lots of gish galloping, too. Kind of hard to challenge single points when they've already moved on to allegation 30.

12:22:21 From James Scholz to Everyone:
	I remember reading somewhere that one way to stop a conspiracy theorist from speaking with you is to give them an even more ridiculous theory - tell them they're naïve for thinking the moon landing was fake, because everyone knows that the moon isn't real, etc.
12:22:25 From Kristel Fleuren-Hunter to Everyone:

	@Keli- thanks!
12:23:40 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	I remember the Maine from history class.
12:24:53 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	@Carrie, Good pun!
12:25:04 From Julie Edwards (she/her) - Niche Academy to Everyone:
	Please feel free to add any questions for Donald in the Q&A!
12:25:04 From Jack Nix to Everyone:
	This makes me think of the movie, Wag the Dog. Great watch if you haven't seen it.
12:25:22 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	@ Lori, Thank ya, thank ya very much!  ;)
12:25:27 From Dan Moenning to Everyone:
	Good reference, Jack!
12:25:27 From Alison Blattner to Everyone:
	I think there's also a level of people not wanting to walk away from it when they find COMMUNITY in it, and to speak against it means risking losing that community
12:25:34 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	^
12:25:36 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	It's hard enough for people to admit they're wrong, it's near impossible for them to admit they were actually the villain
12:25:38 From Mary Spila to Everyone:
	it is very good
12:25:40 From Grace Engelbrecht to Everyone:
	@Alison true
12:25:54 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	I think censorship is another factor. A weapon used in conspiracy theories. Censor factual info
12:26:26 From Julie Edwards (she/her) - Niche Academy to Everyone:
	We have several webinars on censorship coming up: https://www.nicheacademy.com/blog
12:26:34 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	@ Alison - YES! to community. Belonging is right there in the middle of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
12:27:14 From Grace Engelbrecht to Everyone:
	one of the biggest things in my memory was the first couple months of covid, when that "documentary" video Plandemic came out and YouTube and Facebook kept removing it and conspiracy theorists saw that as "Plandemic must be true becasue they are trying to hide the truth"
12:27:18 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	Asking people to explain their conspiracy theories does not make them think more deeply. See Jordan Keppler on the show that used to have Trevor Noah...
12:27:19 From Josephine Incolla-Moore to Everyone:
	What was the name of that podcast again?
12:27:29 From Maria Saldarriaga Osorio to Everyone:
	https://timharford.com/articles/cautionarytales/
12:27:38 From Josephine Incolla-Moore to Everyone:
	Thank you!
12:28:01 From Rivkah Mentzer to Everyone:
	"AITA" conversations (originally from reddit) and "reality check" conversations (as per Brene Brown) are some great phrases and conversations we can use to discuss this sort of thing colloquially
12:29:34 From Luis Aponte to Everyone:
	I have to step away. Could I please get a copy of any presentation handouts? Thank you!
12:29:35 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	@Lori, I've experienced that with the flat earthers in my community. They enjoy being able to talk at people - they aren't examining anything
12:30:02 From Julie Edwards (she/her) - Niche Academy to Everyone:
	Yes! I’ll be sending the recording, slides, audio transcript, and chat transcript in a few days.
12:30:25 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	Right -- real facts are boring, not exciting to hear at all, so many people don't care to hear.
12:30:56 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	Real facts also make people feel powerless. Bad luck can't be stopped, but the evildoers can be
12:31:11 From Naomi Morgan to Host and Panelists:
	Folks who get caught up in conspiracy theories for a sense of belonging and self-esteem also can become more and more difficult to be around. They start damaging their relationships outside the conspiracy social circle which results on being more reliant on conspiracy theory circles.
12:31:14 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	@ Dorian -- agreed.
12:32:51 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	Heard this one all of my life!
12:32:53 From Erin Dilley to Everyone:
	@Dorian, not just bad luck but also institutional issues that can't be attributed to just one person or a few people and that require more work to address
12:33:15 From Beverly Scarpulla to Host and Panelists:
	Could we get a copy of the slide deck after the presentation?
12:33:28 From Julie Edwards (she/her) - Niche Academy to Beverly Scarpulla, Host and Panelists:
	Yes - I’ll send the slides and recording in a few days.
12:33:30 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	Still don't eat Church's to this day.
12:34:24 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	@Erin, 1000%
12:34:46 From Jimi Wilson to Everyone:
	Hi, Lori!
12:35:16 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	Hey, Jimi! Want to get some Church's?
12:35:26 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	Totally agree re: pop culture. I remember my grandma being riveted when the OJ Simpson trial came on. She watched it every day for weeks.
12:35:34 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	It was like a ritual.
12:35:40 From Jimi Wilson to Everyone:
	I'm vegetarian, so no. 😄
12:35:44 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	Yeah the hero worship of wealthy people, the endless fascination with celebrity, makes sense thinking of popular culture as a religion
12:36:12 From Bill Stea to Everyone:
	Some people actually believe we are in a computer simulation!
12:36:36 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	Ha!
12:36:40 From Katherine Draper to Host and Panelists:
	We have a patron who makes us look up "living in a computer simulation" articles all the time.
12:36:48 From Stacey Spencer to Everyone:
	@carrie I watched the depp v. heard case religiously, I get it grandma
12:36:48 From Grace Engelbrecht to Everyone:
	The Truman Show
12:37:01 From Naomi Morgan to Host and Panelists:
	Lighter sidenote: Jupiter Ascending is a great goofy scifi film to check out on a rainy afternoon
12:37:02 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	I do love "glitch in the Matrix" stories. Super entertaining lol
12:37:36 From Julie Eseltine to Everyone:
	A lot of conspiracy theory promoters don't believe the theories they promote, but leverage the ignorance of those willing to follow them to gain followers and lots of money
12:37:50 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	i think it should be an equilateral triangle, not an isosceles to illustrate this
12:37:51 From Melissa Correll to Everyone:
	^^
12:37:56 From Rachael Waugh to Everyone:
	Yes, interactions count more than accuracy.
12:38:08 From Mary Spila to Everyone:

12:38:19 From Mackenzie Johnson to Everyone:
	TVTropes will ruin your life ;)
12:38:20 From Janet Makoujy to Everyone:
	Follow the money....who's is financing this info/website/podcast, etc.
12:38:21 From Rivkah Mentzer to Everyone:
	yesssss tying it into folklore!!!
12:38:27 From Dalton Martin to Everyone:
	love TVtropes
12:38:27 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	@Julie, that is the saddest part of the con. They pray on the fear of people.
12:38:29 From Alison Blattner to Everyone:
	@Julie absolutely. There's those that push the conspiracy and don't believe it but use it for their gain.
12:38:48 From Jennifer Barrett to Everyone:
	I LOVE tv tropes!
12:38:49 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	Good point, Julie. Somehow that’s worse than true believers. They’re cynically taking advantage of people.
12:38:50 From Naomi Morgan to Host and Panelists:
	YES!
12:39:03 From Nathan Elwood to Everyone:
	Invented traditions
12:39:16 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	@Mackenzie, it'll just ruin your enjoyment of a lot of trash TV and movies. The real issue is how many of those writers don't know the tropes they keep walking into
12:39:28 From Julie Eseltine to Everyone:
	A recent example - Fox's Tucker C. and the Big Lie promo on the network's shows
12:39:35 From Dalton Martin to Everyone:
	Joseph Campbell's hero's journey is peddled by many popular conspiratorial thinkers, especially Jordan Peterson
12:39:40 From Anna Doyle to Everyone:
	Tropes aren't bad, they're just tools. They can be used well or badly.
12:39:49 From Rivkah Mentzer to Everyone:
	^^Yes, Anna.
12:39:58 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	The Patriots are the DEVIL!!!
12:40:05 From Katherine Draper to Host and Panelists:
	Ha!
12:40:07 From Sutton Skowron to Everyone:
	Thank you, Anna.
12:40:23 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	That geeky dude in Stranger Things got to join the main case
12:40:25 From Alison Blattner to Everyone:
	Ohmygod THANK YOU Donald, this is a fantastic angle and goes exactly back to the good vs 'evil' conversation we were just having in chat. It's a helpful lens to look at this through. I find it happens a lot when people argue about 'morals'
12:40:26 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	*cast
12:40:34 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	+1 Anna. The hero’s journey was also used in literary theory when I was in grad school.
12:40:42 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	Superbowl. Snowplow. Deflated balls. EVIDENCE!
12:40:57 From Rachael Waugh to Everyone:
	Murray.
12:41:26 From Mackenzie Johnson to Everyone:
	Cultural consumption as identity
12:41:36 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	@Rachael, that's the one! "geeky guy" described most the cast, I appreciate you specifying
12:41:39 From Erin Dilley to Everyone:
	A good counterpoint work to Hero with a Thousand Faces is The Heroine with 1001 Faces by Maria Tatar
12:42:10 From Maria Souliotis to Everyone:
	Don't be a "Sheeple"
12:42:21 From Karen Ostertag to Everyone:
	Tropes are reductionist... it doesn't mean they're not based in fact, but they're generally leaving out a lot of details. And those details can be really important when we're talking about the real world.
12:42:22 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	Ooh, thank you, Erin! I’m always up for flipping the gendered script.
12:42:31 From Rachael Waugh to Everyone:
	Murray is the man 😄
12:42:38 From Alicia Deal to Everyone:
	I'm from Texas and I hate Dr. Pepper. Blasphemous, I know. But I hate it! 😂
12:43:01 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	Seconding that, Alicia. Dr. Pepper is too sweet!
12:43:26 From Sherry Best to Everyone:
	"Why do you have to be a non-conformist like everybody else?"
12:43:43 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	😅
12:43:47 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	@ Alicia - also from TX & don't drink any soft drinks, so I'm right there with you.
12:44:02 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	I think the idea about buying the car, etc., is NOT individualism - it's means you should belong with the group. herd mentality. DON'T be  individual
12:44:25 From Stacey Spencer to Everyone:
	pushing the goal post
12:44:55 From Nathan Elwood to Everyone:
	Similar again to cults in that there must always be an eventual apocalyptic or world-changing event
12:45:04 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	Now our soap operas are multi player online games
12:45:05 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	A lot of other TV got more Soapy + Reality TV
12:45:10 From Naomi Morgan to Host and Panelists:
	There's a recurring idea that there's a particular date when there will be a big ~~REVEAL-- and when this date happens, there's a reason why it's been pushed back, until the next big date comes up again.
12:45:15 From Rivkah Mentzer to Everyone:
	I wonder how collaborative storytelling like D&D streams fits into this.
12:45:20 From Diane Duesterhoeft to Everyone:
	Now we have telenovelas to replace soap operas.
12:45:26 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	I think soap operas people do know this is fantasy. Even they are very involved. It's a fine line
12:45:32 From Genny Carter to Everyone:
	@Dorian And reality TV is a lot cheaper to produce than soap operas.
12:45:35 From Alicia Deal to Everyone:
	@Denise, I no longer drink soft drinks; haven't for years, but even when I did drink soft drinks, hated Dr. Pepper; while the whole family loved it. 🙄 I'm definitely the black sheep! 😂
12:46:12 From Naomi Morgan to Host and Panelists:
	It's like folks are seeking that catharsis of being validated and can feel just satisfied with imagining it being revealed.
12:46:24 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	@ Alicia - My entire family is also addicted and thinks there is something wrong with me. Right there with you.
12:47:09 From Alicia Deal to Everyone:
	My parents used to talk about soap opera plots as if they were real people and it so confused me! I would wonder who they were talking about, do I know anyone named "Bianca" then finally realize they were talking about "All My Children". 🤦‍♀️
12:47:11 From Carla Brooks to Everyone:
	Um what was the Church's chicken photo about?
12:47:14 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	These are some great slides - powerful images!
12:47:17 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	I'm having feelings about that last comment about the "types" of people who are believers in conspiracy theories.  Anyone of ANY ethnic or income level can believe in conspiracy theories...as we have seen.
12:47:25 From Cassandra Morris to Everyone:
	really enjoyed this presentation!
12:47:32 From Adam Di Filippe to Everyone:
	Thank you!
12:47:43 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	very informative. Thank you!
12:47:44 From Victoria Tatum to Host and Panelists:
	Thank you, Donald!
12:47:46 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	@Denise...I KNOW.
12:47:47 From Memo Cordova to Everyone:
	👏🏼
12:47:47 From Sherry Best to Everyone:
	The theory that Church's was owned by White Supremists who put things in the food to make Black men impotent.
12:47:47 From Vicki Blocker to Everyone:
	Thank you
12:47:50 From William Ortiz to Everyone:
	Really good presentation, thank you!

12:48:01 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	This was an excellent presentation
12:48:03 From Bobbie Wrinkle to Everyone:

12:48:03 From Beth Lawry to Host and Panelists:
	Hi Julie. I joined late but please include me in the materials you send afterwards.
12:48:09 From Paula Tamburello to Everyone:
	very important topic--thank you!
12:48:10 From Katherine Draper to Host and Panelists:
	This has been one of the most interesting webinars I've watched so far.  Thank you.
12:48:10 From Lucy Dennett to Everyone:
	@Alicia..yes, All My Children was my jam. I'm still mad that they cancelled it.
12:48:11 From Laura Chapman to Host and Panelists:
	Thank you.
12:48:12 From Calista McCollough to Everyone:
	Thank you!
12:48:12 From Rivkah Mentzer to Everyone:
	great resources, well done
12:48:15 From Nancy Giddens to Everyone:
	Thanks! I can't wait to get the recording so I can watch again and get all the references!
12:48:17 From Gail Blake to Everyone:
	enjoyed, Thank you!
12:48:21 From Carla Brooks to Everyone:
	@Sherry Best- oh, miss that one! Thank you!
12:48:21 From Beverly Scarpulla to Host and Panelists:
	Thank you.
12:48:22 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	Great presentation! Thanks so much for sharing your expertise!
12:48:23 From Anastasia Bazilevskaya to Everyone:

12:48:24 From Jamileh Kouhestani to Everyone:
	Thank you!
12:48:32 From Tim Rogers to Host and Panelists:
	Great material thank you.
12:48:45 From Annette Gaskins to Host and Panelists:
	Will this be archived?  I was unfortunately late.
12:48:54 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	Yes, run into this problem all the time. Also hear, "I know the information is there, the internet is just not showing it to me."
12:49:22 From Stacey Spencer to Everyone:
	yup, we get that a lot
12:49:23 From Dalton Martin to Everyone:
	@Lori I agree, Musk and Trump are counterexamples to the assumption that believers in white supremacist conspiracy theories tend to be lower to middle class and undereducated
12:49:29 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	I have a rule that I won't do the homework for the person I'm arguing with
12:49:40 From Erica Foley to Everyone:
	I had someone wanting the "ACTUAL" text of the Constitution... NOT from the govt, because the govt only lies
12:49:58 From Lori Special to Everyone:

	Russell's Teapot strikes again!
12:50:17 From Lori Special to Everyone:

12:50:17 From Andrea Kappler to Everyone:
	This was an excellent presentation!!
12:50:21 From Carrie Cross to Everyone:
	@ Erica Wow…What can you even say to something like that?
12:50:21 From Barb Swenson to Everyone:
	An old book that made an impact; even back then!  https://www.amazon.com/Mediaspeak-Television-Makes-Your-Mentor/dp/0451622685
12:50:39 From Jessie Javore to Everyone:
	what sites are good for fact checking? snopes? factchecker?
12:50:43 From Hillary Delaney to Host and Panelists:
	Along those lines, what's the best approach to deal with whataboutism?  I feel like it's next to impossible to continue a debate when that is the tactic I encounter.
12:50:47 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	Bigotry in powerful people is a tactic to maintain power. Bigotry in less powerful people is the chain around their own necks
12:51:01 From Kat Andrechuk to Everyone:
	snopes
12:51:06 From Melissa Correll to Everyone:
	lateral reading - check multiple trusted sources
12:51:07 From Ron Epps to Everyone:
	I'd recommend the SIFT method
12:51:13 From Kat Andrechuk to Everyone:
	mediabiasfactcheck
12:51:17 From Kat Andrechuk to Everyone:
	ground news
12:51:30 From Jennifer Crispin to Everyone:
	Politifact
12:51:30 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	Sometimes it is difficult to find  reliable information because Google has biases. That is a fact. So if we cannot find information there may be a "back door" way of finding it. I have done this in my reference work. It's tricky
12:51:32 From Jessica Pratt to Everyone:
	They just claim the fact check site is fake!
12:51:43 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	A lot of the time nowadays you can just google the question directly. Type the whole question into google, and then give a click to the site that google cites
12:51:47 From Alicia Deal to Everyone:
	some people don't even trust the fact checking sites and I have no idea how to help those people at that
12:51:52 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	^^
12:51:56 From Jeff Helgeson to Everyone:
	Factcheck. org

12:52:00 From Barb Swenson to Everyone:
	Are you a fan of Ad Fontes Media Chart?    https://adfontesmedia.com/interactive-media-bias-chart/
12:52:01 From Ron Epps to Everyone:
	SIFT: S - Stop, I - Investigate the source, F - Find a better source, T - trace back to the original story
12:52:09 From Naomi Morgan to Host and Panelists:
	Interesting background about Snopes: https://www.fastcompany.com/90901113/inside-snopes-the-rise-fall-and-rebirth-of-an-internet-icon I remember reading Snopes articles back in the 90s, especially the page on Urban Legends -- kept me up at night!
12:52:09 From Katherine Wagner to Everyone:
	I really appreciate being aware that these theories can make up their identity - that makes a huge difference in interacting with them. Thank you.
12:52:18 From Melissa Correll to Everyone:
	some people cannot be convinced. it is okay to not try with people who are not operating in good faith.
12:52:25 From Ron Epps to Everyone:
	https://researchguides.uoregon.edu/fakenews/sift
12:52:26 From Lori Special to Everyone:
	@Dorian, that is so true. I don't try to change people's mind if their beliefs are set in stone.  As my grandmother said, "Don't tease the monkeys at the zoo. It makes you look like a fool and they monkeys will throw poo at you."
12:52:31 From Denise Smith to Everyone:
	@ Ron - Thanks for sharing SIFT
12:52:32 From Whit Preston to Everyone:
	The media bias fact check is great as a general location that can summarize a variety of news media (magazines, newspapers, cable news channels, etc.)
12:52:53 From Travis Hyzak to Everyone:
	Interesting idea about fact-checking: it tends to not be as effective once people believe something. Don mentioned it in the presentation, but "pre-bunking" is a better strategy: https://inoculation.science/
12:53:02 From Holley Hughes to Everyone:
	How do you demonstrate that a "vetted" resource is trustworthy. They'd still have to believe. So, what points you could put on the table?
12:53:07 From Andrea B to Everyone:
	Do you have thoughts on how to encourage a "healthy" degree of skepticism, including when evaluating sources published in generally reputable sources? I worry about the message to trust everything in a X or Y source, at the same time that I don't want to encourage excessive skepticism.
12:53:28 From Victoria Coleman to Everyone:
	Thank You
12:53:34 From Jennifer Crispin to Everyone:
	Poynter is great!
12:53:48 From Marilyn Umfress to Everyone:
	if an event,  look for primary sources
12:54:00 From Memo Cordova to Everyone:
	It's exhausting discussing things with people bent on distorting/supporting disinformation. At some point you just nod your head and leave immediately after (if you can)
12:54:02 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	You have to check who is sponsoring /funding the the fact checker! You will not find anything against the company funding the fact checker through the fact checking! So it's all very tricky
12:54:02 From Dorian Combs to Everyone:
	Really potent propaganda often doesn't bother saying anything false at all, it controls the context
12:54:20 From Jimi Wilson to Everyone:
	Spelled "Poynter" in case anyone's looking.
12:54:24 From Julie Edwards (she/her) - Niche Academy to Everyone:

12:55:37 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	@Andrea, I talk about it as a spectrum: one end has paranoia, the middle is healthy skepticism, and the other end is gullibility
12:55:54 From Travis Hyzak to Everyone:
	@Erin I love this!
12:56:02 From Hindishe Lee to Everyone:
	The site will  nnot criticize Soros!
12:56:18 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	But then it's not really a spectrum because if you go too far to paranoia, you fall for the real whoppers (conspiracies)
12:56:23 From Andrea B to Everyone:
	@Erin. thank you. Yes, spectrums and complexity are really key
12:56:31 From Beth Lawry to Everyone:
	Wonder if anyone has encountered the issue with collection materials? Another nearby library had a struggle with a local 'author' whose book on climate (denying) was rejected as not meeting the collection policy. He played it out on social media.
12:56:42 From Andrea B to Everyone:
	Too simplistic to say X source is always right, etc.
12:56:46 From Erin Roper to Everyone:
	Yes
12:56:54 From Rivkah Mentzer to Everyone:
	^^Andrea, yes
12:57:13 From Nathan Elwood to Everyone:

	Do you have a suggestion for people whose conspiracies are very particular to them and not tied to a larger conspiracy theory? "(i.e. there are people listening to my thoughts, tapping my computer, etc.) Any suggestions on what to do/avoid doing?
12:57:25 From Andrea B to Everyone:
	And I think it has gotten much more complex.
