This is a public service announcement for all the dollar-store Sherlock Holmes’s out there who clearly have nothing better to do than to concoct conspiracy theories about people from Gaza on the fediverse who are faced with genocide and famine:

Stop.

Have some humanity.

Case in point, do not do what Daniel (@helmet91@mastodon.social) is doing here:

https://mastodon.social/@helmet91/115158104880965232

Here’s someone going out of their way to discredit Nouran and her brother Yousef (@NouranKhaledGh). I’ve spoken with Nouran and Yousef over video on Signal and we’ve verified them on:

https://gaza-verified.org

They are real. They are from Gaza. I’m in touch with them daily. They haven’t been able to evacuate yet.

They need your help.

And what is Daniel doing? Examining bloody shadows in video footage like some tinfoil-hat conspiracy theorist attempting to disprove that the moon landings ever happened.

And writing blog posts about it:

https://helmet91.com/post/how-not-to-get-scammed

Stop it, Daniel. Stop and think about what you’re doing.

This isn’t some computer game.

These are real people. Who are in danger. And need our help. And you’re not helping.

PS. You can show your love and support for Nouran, her brother Yousef, and their whole family by following her here: @NouranKhaledGh, sending some words of solidarity, donating to their fundraiser, and sharing it so others can help too.

I do not understand the "sovereign citizen" thing because it makes no sense. You're on public roads, speeding, but the traffic laws don't apply based on what? The only people who are sovereign citizens are the monarchy of various countries. And last I checked Billy Bob looks nothing like King Harald. #news #nuttery #conspiracytheorieshttps://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2025/aug/29/rise-of-sovereign-citizen-movement-a-challenge-to-australias-world-leading-gun-control-ntwnfb

The report, expected this month from the US Department of #Health & Human Services, which #RFKJr heads, is likely to highlight how low levels of #folate, an important vitamin, & #Tylenol taken during pregnancy, could be a potential cause of #autism, the report said.

So fucking stupid it hurts.

#RFKJr to link #Tylenol use in pregnancy to autism

Tylenol is the just about safest drug in the world

Health Secy RFKJr plans to announce that use of Kenvue's popular over-the-counter pain medication Tylenol in pregnant women is potentially linked to #autism, WSJ reported on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter, WITHOUT including #EVIDENCE for the claims.

The #FDA & leading #medical orgs agree on the safety of acetaminophen, its use during pregnancy, & the information provided on the label," the co said.

#Shares of #Kenvue fell 14% after the report [because people are crazy]. #Tylenol, whose active ingredient is #acetaminophen, is a very safe widely used pain reliever, including by pregnant women.

“What the #health & human services secretary, #RFKJr , has done to the #CDC & to our nation’s #PublicHealth system over the past several months — culminating in his decision to fire Dr. Susan Monarez as CDC director days ago — is unlike anything we had ever seen at the agency & unlike anything our country had ever experienced.”

Over five years, we sought out and got to know people on the cusp of becoming conspiracy theorists. And the results of our new study show that a sense of community activism is attracting people to these ideas. https://theconversation.com/why-people-embrace-conspiracy-theories-its-about-community-not-gullibility-262276#ConspiracyTheories
