3:03 pm
seeing an assassination attempt on such a high profile politician like trump, are you surprised by the kind of misinformation and conspiracy theories that we have been seeing circulating around this event? sadly, not at all. we're living in a time where basically every seeing of any importance that happens is automatically integrated into a number of often competing conspiracy field because these theories are out there, they are politically polarized, and whatever happens can just be integrated them as the new as chapter, the latest event, the largest story of evil do was plotting against the people who now donald trump has is called his upcoming speech of the r n. c a chance to bring the country together. he says he's going to use this speech to call for unity in your view. do think it makes a difference. what trump actually says on stage, are his supporters listening or will people be getting their information from online sources or other places?
3:04 pm
i don't really think that it makes a difference because trump has been instrumental in heating up. so rhetoric said by it and just called needs to be cool down. we only need to remember how republicans reacted to the attack on paul to lower the, the husband of nancy pelosi. and so the problem is in a very good position though, at the moment because he can actually call for unity and call for things to come down because he knows that his supporters a j events but also others actually at the same time heating things up by blaming democrats for having created the heated atmosphere in which this s, as a nation attempt could happen. they don't even need to rely on conspiracy theories for doing that. but we know that, especially the republican party has in the past heavily relied on conspiracy theories. making the mist office, the only election, one of its pillars in recent years is that perhaps one of the most famous there. of course,
3:05 pm
there's plenty of conspiracy and in from the county. but i also wanna ask you here, especially regarding this latest incident about conspiracy theories on the left, i mean, i've seen was information flourishing in pro democrat groups. are you surprised to see that coming up so much? i or no, not at all. i mean, we've known for a long time that conspiracy theories are not at all the uh, something that only happens on the right of the political spectrum. that's something that is also very popular on the left. and they have been several conspiracy theories about trump. the past, remember, during this presidency he was represented sometimes as mature in kansas address controls. by for lot the me a poor team and they had a meeting and other people were sent out of the room even the, the mainstream media tended to spread this miss. so the difference between conspiracy theories on the left and on the right in the united states at the moment
3:06 pm
is that the democratic party is not systematically using conspiracy theories for political gain. where is the republican party has been doing this for quite some time, but among the supporters and some pets essence of these parties. a conspiracy theories might be almost equally spread. so given that these conspiracy theories are being used for political gain, is there anything that can be done to stance them out as they, as they rise up? i'm not in the short run. definitely, i mean, conspiracy theories happened integral part of all modern societies since the 16th century. for a long time, they were found more popular and influential than they are. now then, in the middle of the 20th century, they underwent the process of stigmatization in the west of the world. however, what has happened in the united states and recent years is that we have seen the pasha, religion, demonization of conspiracy. just thinking that is last 3 due to the impact of donald trump. and while this was mainly
3:07 pm
a trump thing during his 1st presidency in the aftermath of the storm on the capital, on january the 6th, the whole republican party has embraced conspiracy theory. so even if trump had been killed yesterday, i would not have been surprised if the rhetoric of the republican party had remained unchanged and in such a and such an atmosphere, it's virtually impossible to contain the spread of conspiracy theory. so i don't have much hope when it comes to that. thank you so much for joining us on data units, but your insights for this michelle bordeaux at the university of tubing and thank you so much for having me. and we can turn now to some other world news at this hour. russia and china has started drawing to military drills and the pacific as the to continue to strength and ties. beijing says that exercises do not target a particular nation. nato allies recently called china, a decisive enabler of russia's war and ukraine. rescue teams in
