As is fairly normal, I was looking through videos of big diesel engines and the usual Russian car crashes, etc., when I happened upon someone talking about chemtrails. This was obvious nonsense, but linked videos led to all manner of other nonsense which I assume all will be familiar with but were new ground to me.
Time after time, I'd say "But this is rubbish" and follow another linked video to another and marvel all the time, was the world far madder than my experience to date had indicated?
I am 74, internet user since dial-up days, say about 1990,computer programmer in the late 1960s and smart enough to have made a decent living selling antiques on ebay for about 15 years till I retired in 2012. Other occupations have included libraries, boat repair, property renovation, insurance and a certain amount of ducking and diving when required.
In none of this had I ever encountered the levels of insanity that I plunged into in the world of YT videos. Not only were the videos everything from just deluded to wildly insane, the comments often indicated a level of malice, stupidity, racism and vitriolic abuse that seemed to indicate there was a huge section of humanity that had simply failed 'life' and existed only as bitter dark spirits.
Needless to say, this was great fun.

One thing that concerned me was the huge disparity between the number of crazies and the very few people posting simple and straight forward criticism and refutations of the nonsense.
Getting to the point, finally, I accidentally ran across this site/forum which reassured me that I was not the last rational person left standing, and indeed a large number of people were willing to devote some time to the turning over of stones and classifying the unappetizing things found there. I am the sort of person who read the whole Meads V Meads court report for fun (Did what I thought were the flaws in the OPCA schemes line up with the judge's opinion) and all I could dig up about some other sagas, hugely aided by references from this site.
Since a lot of the nonsense dates back on youtube for many years much may well be forgotten or irrelevant now, I have some catching up to do with what the latest fads are. I hope and expect this site will be helpful.
Thank you for existing and promoting research and reason.
Even though this site is clearly a device of the reptilian illuminati satanist pedophiles to draw in and enslave by mind control all who resist their terrible if confused schemes. I an sure my new tinfoil hat will protect me.
