And the truth is, is that the news cycle, it's a dopamine hit.

Digital Social Hour

And it's been a dopamine hit for a long time.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

And creators are just as bad as the old MSM used to be with that dopamine hit.

Digital Social Hour

When that news cycle hits, as long as they're pumping out the dopamine and the headlines and they're getting the views and the clicks, they will.

And if people's interests start waning towards something else, they cover that.

For the most part, are you pretty anti-conspiracy theorist?

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

Well, no.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

I mean, the government has tens of thousands of laws in the books about conspiracies because they seem to see them everywhere.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

So I would say that, no, there's definitely conspiracy theory that aren't theories.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

They're just conspiracies.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

And the term conspiracy theory was popularized by the Central Intelligence Agency to make people look bad because they would point out things which were objectively true.

Digital Social Hour

So there's thousands of conspiracies going on right this second.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

But

Digital Social Hour

I guess when we make the referent of a conspiracy theory, there's still tons of people who try to connect dots which aren't there.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

And they try to kind of propagate what the left would refer to as misinformation or things like this for the purposes of using clicks.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

But that does not mean that conspiracies don't happen.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

MKUltra happened.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

That wasn't a conspiracy.

Digital Social Hour
Andrew Wilson: The Dark Side of TikTok No One Wants to Talk About | DSH #1648

Project Paperclip, which they would have considered a conspiracy then, it happened.

Chemtrails.
