    People will believe a bullshit rumour easily if it conforms to one of their preexisting biases.

    Anyone who believes that Haitian immigrants are eating the neighbourhood cats is 90% likely to be straight up racist even if they don’t think they are, or 10% likely that they are just dumb as bricks with no critical thought capabilities.
