Takeaways:
Conspiracy theories and hoaxes can have varying lifespans depending on factors such as the number of people involved and the level of secrecy required. Not all conspiracy theories are equal, and some can have real-world consequences.

Misinformation and disinformation can make it difficult to distinguish between true conspiracies and baseless claims. It is important to critically evaluate conspiracy theories and consider the evidence before accepting or spreading them.

Understanding the motivations behind conspiracy theories can help debunk false claims and prevent their harmful effects. Conspiracy theories often arise from people's motivations and the benefits they perceive from the alleged conspiracy.

Conspiracy theories have existed throughout history and are often fueled by societal crisis situations. Hoaxes are purposeful deceptions, while conspiracy theories are beliefs that people want to be true.

Certain conspiracy theories can be dangerous and have real-world consequences. Conspiracy theories can persist despite evidence to the contrary, but their duration is limited. Popular conspiracy theories include the Denver International Airport as the headquarters of the New World Order and the belief that North Korea is a paradise.
