My friend has fallen down a conspiracy-theory rabbit hole
A longtime friend has become consumed by conspiracy theories, leaving the writer unsure how to respond.
Dear Annie: I’ve been friends with “Mark” since high school, which was over 15 years ago. He actually feels more like a brother than a friend. But over the past year, there’s been a shift in him. He’s gotten deep, deep into conspiracy theories. Every conversation somehow turns into a rant about the government’s hidden agenda or the evils of the pharmaceutical industry.
