Could you define the term "Conspiracy Theory" and "Conspiracy Theorist" for me ? For example, are the large number of Republicans who think the 2020 US election was stolen, in the complete absence of evidence, conspiracy theorists?

How long does it take for a Conspiracy Theory to become "...estimations of what could actually happen..."? ie an admission that like all other vaccination Conspiracy Theories they are conveniently dumped. Examples would be those that existed in the Crimean War, late Victorian, Edwardian, 1916-1922 and various one that involved free mass inoculation for children and of course MMR. The only person distracting here is you, at the end of the day your obsession with what constitutes a CT is far less important than the current situation in Germany where despite them doing all the things that you deem correct with regards to virus control they're currently in the grip of the worst rise in infections since the pre-vaccine days. You obviously don't want to discuss this and that's fine but it does prove a lot of people on here wrong, hence the lack of attention to it.

Do you think you are making serious points by repeatedly asking silly, unrelated questions? Or, do you just enjoy the attention that you get by being "controversial"? It is all a bit odd.
