This topic is a case study in how people can make themselves believe what they want to believe. Very obvious and objective facts are suppressed if they dont fit. Flimsy arguments at best are championed if they somehow support the desired narrative. Strengthen those arguments by agreeing with people that repeat them, and ignoring or shouting down those that believe otherwise.
How could this have gone so wrong? Everybody believed we were on the right track.
