    It’s even simpler than that. The Soviet Union was the biggest US enemy at the time. They obviously would have tracked the flight from launch to landing. Why would they go along with a US conspiracy? Wouldn’t they be the first to say it was fake?

        If they believe that they’re a lost cause. They can go back to their tin foil hat.

          Anybody that believes the Moon landing was fake is a lost cause. Only flat Earth is a more ridiculous thing.

          Oh he’s absolutely lost

          Fortunately his conspiracy beliefs are harmless. He at least still believes vaccines are essential for children’s health, which is good as I have young nieces and nephews.
