MODERATORS
Conspiracists attributed nefarious intent on these stones. I learned about them from a podcast that studies conspiratorial thinking. I didn't realize they'd been destroyed. I kinda think I heard that ep after the time when they were bombed, so maybe that was mentioned and I didn't internalize it.
Heads-up: conspiracy people are potentially dangerous. They blew up these stones that were probably pretty trivial / harmless. They have shot people for perceived great-replacement bullshit (synagogs). This shit isn't just amusing and stupid. They're irrational and they can project and cause harm.
