Analysis / Bias

In review, The Truthseeker is a conspiracy website that promotes unproven claims such as Dangerous 5G Streetlights with VIRUS Death Beams – THE TRUTH! (Feat. Mark Steele). 5G conspiracy theories have been thoroughly debunked. The website also promotes chemtrails such as this SHOCK CLAIM: Chemtrails ‘will wipe out humans’ causing biblical-style floods, says expert as well as claims of aliens in Corn Flakes. In general, this is a tin-foil crackpot conspiracy website.
