Andrew Bridgen thought he’d unveiled a conspiracy about two Earthrise images, but it was just the same picture twice – 17 hilariously brutal takedowns

It’s remarkable that @ABridgen really does think these two pictures were taken 68 years apart. See the Community Note

That's just the same photo which has been edited, but what is a 'coincidence theorist'?

Somebody who goes around pointing at things which are exactly the same, and declaring them to be suspicious?https://t.co/n75xH9AyUU

His maths is shite too.
It would be 58 years. Not 68.

This is a theory we can get behind.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: you can’t just “dabble” in conspiracy theories. Once you buy into one, you’ve already loosened your grip on how you judge evidence and the door is now wide open for the next.
