Had a guy at the junkyard in Denver argue that 9/11 was an inside job
This was back in 2019 when I was pulling parts for my old Ford. He was digging through a crushed minivan and just started talking about how the towers fell too clean. Said he worked demolition for 15 years and the way the steel collapsed didn't match any controlled demolition he'd ever seen. I asked him about the plane impacts and he laughed, said the fuel loads weren't hot enough to melt steel beams. Has anyone else run into someone with actual trade experience who bought into a big conspiracy theory?

That junkyard guy sounds like half the guys I've met working on cars, honestly. I once had a mechanic in Tucson tell me the moon landings were faked while he was helping me swap out a blown alternator. He pointed at his toolbox and said 'you think that Stanley tape measure can land a man on the moon?' and I just... didn't have a comeback for that one. It's wild how someone can rebuild a transmission from scratch but then turn around and think lizard people run the world. I guess you can be really good at one thing and still be completely off base about everything else.
