They have trained us well to disbelieve anything and everything they say. You need to think of ALL of the leftist-controlled institutions - White house, Pentagon, State Dept, DOJ, most Media, NPR, academia, hollywood, UN, CDC, WHO, many state .govs (incl CO), etc. - as ongoing targeted disinformation campaigns. Funny thing is that these days, actual conspiracy theorists are getting hard to find since everything you suspect or "sort of know" is proving to be correct.
