When your Mum is a conspiracy theorist

Post by sTeamTraen » Sat Dec 26, 2020 7:27 pm

This piece contains one of the most impressive interviews I have seen in a long while (see the last image on the page).

I can't imagine what it must be like for a teenager to have to deal with this (he left home at 17 to get away from it).

I've seen the interview, it's good.

Poor lad.
Have you considered stupidity as an explanation

I googled him (not hard with that name) and he is QI. A Tory-supporting student at LSE, but solid in his (existential!) condemnation of the far right. I presume his accent and remarkable self-confidence come from an expensive school. I think we may be hearing more of him in the future.
