Exposed: The mainstream narrative crumbles under the weight of one man’s browser history
SPRINGFIELD — A local man announced today that he did his own research, and the findings have conclusively validated every single opinion he held before beginning his investigation.
The man, 47, reportedly spent several hours on Tuesday evening conducting what he described as “independent analysis” using Google, YouTube, and several Facebook groups dedicated to questioning mainstream narratives.
“The evidence is overwhelming,” he told reporters, gesturing at his laptop. “Once you look into it—really look into it—you see that I was right about everything.”
How He Did His Own Research
According to sources close to the investigation, the man’s research methodology consisted primarily of typing his existing beliefs into search engines and clicking on results that agreed with him.
“First, I searched for evidence that [REDACTED] was a hoax,” he explained. “And guess what? I found tons of evidence. Then I searched for proof that [REDACTED] is actually controlled by [REDACTED]. Found that too. It’s all out there if you’re willing to look.”
The man dismissed peer-reviewed scientific journals as “compromised” and university researchers as “paid shills.” However, he expressed complete confidence in a blog run by someone named “TruthPatriot1776” and a YouTube channel with 340 subscribers.
“You have to consider the source,” he said, without apparent irony.
Experts Who Did Their Own Research Respond
Dr. Sarah Chen, a professor of psychology who has studied confirmation bias for two decades, attempted to explain the phenomenon.
“When people seek out information that confirms their existing beliefs while dismissing contradictory evidence, we call this—” she began.
“See, that’s exactly what they want you to think,” the man interrupted. “Who funds her research? Have you asked that? I’m just asking questions.”
The man’s wife confirmed he has been doing his own research on various topics for several years. Consequently, he now believes the moon landing was “suspicious,” vitamins are being suppressed by Big Pharma, and his neighbor’s new fence violates an easement.
“He’s always been curious,” she said, staring into the middle distance.
What His Research Revealed
The man provided a summary of his research findings:
First, everything he suspected about the government is true. Second, everything he suspected about the media is also true. Third, the fact that mainstream sources disagree with his conclusions is itself proof that his conclusions are correct.
“If I were wrong, they’d ignore me,” he explained. “The fact that they say I’m wrong means I’m over the target.”
At press time, the man was beginning a new research project into whether his son’s school curriculum had been infiltrated by “radical ideologies.” Early findings suggest yes.
