Oh god, my brother started spouting this nonsense at the same time he went vegan (which I don’t have a problem with) and anti-vax (which I REALLY do). He was also really eager to tell me all about how iodised salt was a conspiracy by the government to lower the IQ of the population. Oh and don’t get me started on his take on 9/11.
I wound up telling him I wouldn’t discuss anything further with him unless he could bring receipts.
