Conspiracy Theories: Philosophers Connect the DotsConspiracy theories have become a major element in modern opinion formation. From the theory that the killing of President Kennedy was masterminded by a powerful conspiracy to the theory that 9 11 was an inside job, from the story that Barack Obama wasn't born in America to the story that Donald Trump was a Russian asset, conspiracy theories have become a major element in opinion formation and an ever present influence, sometimes open, sometimes
Conspiracy theories have become a major element in modern opinion formation. From the theory that the killing of President Kennedy was masterminded by a powerful conspiracy to the theory that 9/11 was an inside job, from the story that Barack Obama wasn't born in America to the story that Donald Trump was a Russian asset, conspiracy theories have become a major element in opinion formation and an ever-present influence, sometimes open, sometimes hidden, on the daily headline news. In It's a Conspiracy , philosophers of diverse backgrounds and persuasions focus their lenses on the phenomenon of the conspiracy theory, its psychological causes, its typical shape, and its political consequences. Among the questions addressed: ● What's the formula for designing a contagious conspiracy theory? ● Where does conspiracy theorizing end and investigative reporting begin? ● What can we learn about conspiracy theories from the three movie treatments of the Kennedy assassination (The Parallax View, JFK, and Interview with the Assassin)? ● Does political powerlessness generate conspiracy theories? ● Is conspiracy theorizing essentially an instinct that lies behind all belief in religion and all striving for a meaningful life? ● Can we find conspiracy theories in all political movements for centuries past? ● What are the most common types of fallacious reasoning that tend to support conspiracy theories? ● Is there a psychological disorder at the root of conspiracy theories? ● Why is the number of flat-earthers growing?Binding Type: Paperback

Heavy duty
I bought these to modify a safe. Very durable I had to cut down a corner and a sawszall had trouble getting through. On top of that they hold a lot of weight without buckling. Buy it.

Great construction but poor mounting hardware
They are great once your put them in but mounting them was a huge pain.
The included dry wall anchors are of really bad quality and rips up a huge opening if you have to undo them for whatever reason.
But the more infuriating thing is the screws they come with, which is not quite Philips 2 and easily slips from most standard driver bits. It is very easy to strip these if you are not careful. The small amount of space at the corner almost doesn't allow for easy drill access so you might have to get creative.
Overall good product, but I will highly recommend buying your own set of wall anchors and screws

Sturdy as heck But NOT easy to install
Because of the angles to install the screws, I'm definitely going to have to say NOT easy to install. Simple in concept; maybe if you have paper-thin walls. But if you don't it is a pain to screw those in with the tools provided. On the upside, they do come with a mini leveler. But it's just not a practical way of screwing in the shelf unless you are prepared to spend a surprising amount of time doing it. The shelves themselves are sturdy but that should be expected since it's basically a sheet of metal.
