Welcome back to Conspiracy Corner, where Pigweed and Crowhill examine theories that range from ridiculous to surprisingly plausible. This episode tackles one of the internet’s newest suspicions: genetically engineered ticks.
Lyme disease is rising. Alpha-gal syndrome is spreading. Tick populations seem to be exploding. The government studies ticks. Universities study ticks. Billionaires fund research on insects. And somewhere in the background, people are talking about reducing meat consumption.
Is somebody deliberately releasing bioengineered ticks? Or is this just a perfect storm of coincidence, fear, and institutional distrust?
Pigweed and Crowhill sort through the facts, the rumors, the helicopter stories, the mysterious boxes, and the reasons this conspiracy theory has gained traction—even if the evidence doesn’t quite get it across the finish line.
