Why People Believe Conspiracy Theories with David Aaronovitch
About this episode
On this episode of Timeless Wisdom, Dennis Prager is joined by David Ironovich, author of Voodoo Histories, a book exploring the role of conspiracy theories in shaping modern history. They delve into why people believe in conspiracies, from the JFK assassination to 9/11, and discuss the psychological and political motivations behind these beliefs. David shares his insights on how conspiracy theories can be comforting and how they often replace the anxiety of uncertainty with a sense of control. This thought-provoking conversation will leave you questioning the nature of truth and the human desire for explanations.
