That time a guy in a diner told me the moon landing was staged and I asked him how satellites work

He just stared at his coffee for a solid minute and then said 'that's what they want you to think' before getting up and walking out, so has anyone else found that specific silence more convincing than any argument?

My friend Sarah once cornered a guy at a house party who claimed wifi was "mind control waves." She just asked him how his phone connected to her router if that was true. He froze, blinked like three times, then said "it's all frequencies" and left mid-sentence out the back door. She found his empty beer can on the porch later. That silence was louder than any argument I've ever heard.

Oh man, I've found the best way to shut down that stuff is to just hit them with one simple question they can't answer without contradicting themselves, then let them dig their own hole.
