    Joseph Uscinski and colleagues delve into and tackle the prevalence, frequency, and predisposition for conspiracy theories in our society. Uscinski and others found several predispositions the most notably and potentially influential being the partisan predisposition. Today, the bipartisan line seems very clear and the parties are very divided to the point where legislation and government is plausibly affected. Uscinski’s findings in The Effect of Conspiratorial Thinking and Motivated Reasoning on Belief in Election Fraud show that depending on the party one identifies with influences whom they believe are behind electoral fraud (Edelson, 11). Furthermore, the same individuals that blame the opposing partisan party refuse to acknowledge that their own party may be responsible for committing electoral fraud (Edelson, 11).…

I chose the topic of the Moon Landing, because it enabled me to take a second look at the conspiracy theory through a new lens of experience. To understand where this idea of a hoax originates, we need to understand what was going on before the Apollo 11 moon landing. Starting in the 1950s, America was in a cold war with Soviet Russia, which was less of a physical battle and more of a challenge of who had a better structured government. It was a challenge of superiority that eventually led to the space race in 1955.…

    We live in a world where even undeniable facts are denied and debated and it can be very difficult to determine what the truth is in many circumstances. In the absence of undisputable evidence, the truth is left up to the public to decide for themselves what is true and what is not. Area 51 is a perfect example of this. The secrecy surrounding Area 51 has made it a perfect target for rampant speculation, exploitation, distrust of our government and in some cases, paranoia. Area 51 is an Air…
