He started off by basically telling me that I ' m an idiot not in those words for not seeing the truth about the establishment , and then he went on to talk about global elites , Soros , Jews , pizzagate and Benghazi and so on . In the last year or so he adopted this extremely cynical view of anything considered mainstream and I think he turned into a conspiracy theorist . Conversely , he thinks I ' m blind to the truth .
