Conspiracy Nation part 1: The Covid conspiracy pipeline

During the Covid-19 pandemic, Australia – like many countries – saw protesters take the streets.

They weren’t just protesting lockdowns – they were rallying around a tangle of fears and conspiracies.

Those threads fused into a broader worldview that pulled people down a pipeline and built a small industry of influencers.

Today, Conspiracy Nation authors Ariel Bogle and Cam Wilson discuss the conspiracy pipeline: How it works, who benefits, and where it’s heading now.

This is part one of a two-part series.
