Currently reading The Problem With Conspiracy Theories by James Sommerfield

It’s not a hypey conspiracy book and it’s not a snarky debunking thing either. More about why certain stories spread, why mistrust sticks around, and why some events never feel settled even when the evidence mostly is.

Touches on stuff like JFK, MH370, chemtrails, media influence, misinformation,but in a pretty grounded, readable way. Short sections, thoughtful, easy to keep picking up.

If you’re into this kind of niche nonfiction on KU modern myths, strange real-world cases, belief systems, media psychology — would love recommendations for anything similar.
