Lately (more precisely, in the last few days), we have witnessed several stupidities, regarding conspiracy theories, which lead even to tragic endings!
Man killed his children as a result of the theory that lizard people are ruling over governments! He believed that his two kids had ,,serpent DNA” which would lead them to grow into monsters! Then he took them to Mexico and killed them with a harpoon! Then he explained to authorities that HE KNEW THIS IS BAD, BUT THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE PLANET! Example article is here https://edition.cnn.com/2021/08/12/us/father-kills-children-qanon-california-mexico/index.html
Another total stupidity case is that some people (mostly anti-vaxxers) are spreading misinformation that we should not take vaccines against corona BECAUSE IT WILL TURN US INTO ZOMBIES JUST LIKE IN MOVIE ,,I AM LEGEND” 2007!!! It was spread rapidly that even director of the movie had to write that this is just movie, it does not exist in reality and he made that up! https://edition.cnn.com/2021/08/10/entertainment/i-am-legend-vaccines-trnd/index.html
And not just that, even if we follow that stupid logic, still they are wrong! In that movie, people were turned into zombies because of VIRUS, NOT VACCINE! In fact, Will Smith actually tries to make vaccines to cure people!
Many people even massively spread a conspiracy theory that there is no coronavirus, it does not exist, it is a hoax! While, in turn, many people died worldwide because of that, many of you readers experienced virus at your own skin, we also have family members who had virus themselves! Do not listen to those theories.
PEOPLE, THOSE ARE JUST THEORIES AND STORIES! IT IS NOT REAL! Do not fall victim to such theories. Educate yourself properly!

And here are some various bizarre theories https://spyscape.com/article/illuminati-qanon-lizard-people-and-other-conspiracy-theories
Even the president of Serbia publically criticized the anti-vaccine campaign for mass misinformation, https://rs.n1info.com/vesti/vucic-o-antivakserima-i-vakcinaciji/ citing:
„Ali, vas kao Boga molim da razumete da se nama, koji smo vakcinisani, nije desilo ama baš ništa. Prekinite da govorite gluposti o čipovima jer kada tu priču pričate nekoga ćete da ubijete tom pričom“ translated: ,,But, I beg you as I would beg God himself, I ask you to understand that nothing happened to us, who were vaccinated. Stop talking nonsense about microchips because when you spread that story you’re going to kill someone with that.”
Here as well https://rs.n1info.com/vesti/vucic-pozvao-lekare-da-sto-pre-odluce-o-trecoj-dozi-vakcine-protiv-kovida/ ,,Kada to pričate, nekoga ćete da ubijete, ko vam poveruje. Nečije dete će da ostane bez majke i oca ili obrnuto” translated: ,,When you say that, you will kill someone who believes you. Someone’s child will be left without a mother and father, or vice versa “
As we already told, those are just silly stories that attract mentally challenged people to commit crimes in some cases. There are not Illuminati lizard people around ruling over governments, you cannot turn into zombies because of vaccines, Bill Gates can’t microchip you! And yes, coronavirus definitively exists!
