If I pump put baseless conspiracies nonstop then statistically I'll get something sort of right at some point. It doesn't mean I was right to espouse that bullshit on the first place. Showing your work matters. If you got to a right conclusion accidentally by making shit up , it doesn't mean you were "right" or that people were we're wrong to laugh at you. There's a thing called Epistemology. Humans have been doing it for thousands of years. Learn about it .
