Chatting with my neighbor about the moon landing changed my whole approach.

He's a retired engineer who worked on the Apollo program, and he said, 'The real conspiracy is that we stopped going.' That simple line made me stop pushing facts and start asking why people believe what they do. What's a conversation that flipped a debate for you?

Old guy could've been a janitor there. Loads of people worked on Apollo, not just engineers. Janitors, cooks, security guards. Wouldn't make their stories less true or more.

Wait, he actually worked on Apollo?

Yeah, the "he actually worked on Apollo" part is wild. Makes you wonder how many other regular looking people did stuff like that.
