Regardless of who is right -- whether it be about the lunar landing or some other issue -- I think that we have realized as a culture just how much our governments have lied to us about so many different things throughout modern histroy and that we MUST be skeptical about ALL the information they feed us. The government DOES NOT have our best interests at heart; it's own self-interest rules supreme.
We need all the consipiracy theorists, out-of-the-box thinkers, and plain ol' whackos with wild ideas we can find because it is the non-believers who DON'T trust the government that keeps the government in check. It's so easy for the powers-that-be to pull fast ones over the general public by limiting our access to information and brainwashing us through the media.
Challenge authority, open your minds, think for yourselves!
