  • Summary

  • In the inaugural episode of Free The Rabbits, host Joel Thomas opens up with a look at his new podcast and the idea that people structure their entire lives around some conspiracy theories. He then breaks down Cass Sunstein and Adrian Vermeule’s thesis, “Symposium on Conspiracy Theories - Conspiracy Theories: Causes and Cures,” and how it has been integral in not only shaping conspiracy theories but in being the foundation of the modern “truther” movement.

    Joel goes further into the thesis by exploring Cognitive Infiltration, which Sunstein and Vermeule suggest as the solution to conspiracy theories. Joel combats this bleak outlook by showcasing the positive view we should all have with the power of love and compassion when we implement that into the world around us.
