RE: QC Community Weekly Contest #151 [ENG/ESP] My Opinion on Conspiracy Theories.

The story is designed to alarm people rather than inform them

This was such a great point. Yeah, sometimes the real information can cause fear, but how they present the message is not to alarm us, it is to inform about an event or something. While the message from conspiracy theories always tries to spark fear, distrust, anger, and the "we vs them" menthallity.
