Conspiracy Theories

My topic is about conspiracy theories, and how they affected society throughout time and today. I covered dates of when the first big conspiracy theories started gaining believers to the present day. Learning about historical events helps shape the future because if we don’t learn about the past, we are doomed to repeat it. A major historical theme that I discovered while completing this project is the way conspiracy theories affect people’s ability to separate reality from fiction. My purpose for researching this topic was to learn more about the different theories that exist, and really dive deeper into discovering how and why people believe some of them.
