Talking to my uncle about the moon landing changed how I argue now
He's 74 and worked at NASA tracking stations in the 60s, and when we argued about the 1969 footage last Sunday he just said 'nobody fakes a signal that the Soviets can independently confirm from three different continents,' which made me realize I never check my own sources against the other side's available data, so now I'm asking myself who else in my circle has firsthand knowledge I've been ignoring for years?

The line about the Soviets confirming it from three continents is the part that got me. Did your uncle ever say what the tracking stations actually picked up themselves, like did he hear the signal with his own ears or just see it on a screen? That difference matters a lot when you're trying to figure out who to trust.
