tinfoil 

Quasi-mystical aluminium foil that (if worn in the ears) can filter out reception of most left and right wing chaff.

1st person: "You are both scum and an idiot and possibly traitorous if you do not think like me"

2nd person: "I'm not hearing you, I have my tinfoil hat on"

tinfoil 

n. In the 1940s strips of tinfoil were dumped from planes to shield them from radar detection. Now the word is applied to any event or announcement which shields a politician by deflecting the focus or attention of the press and public.

tinfoil hat 

Propoganda designed to cover up a massive government conspiracy. Begining in the late 1970's, the United States government tried to cover up its radio-wave thought-control program by circulating a false rumor that people could shield their minds from government intrusion by wearing a tinfoil hat. In truth, a tinfoil hat only improves reception and makes it easier for the government to read your mind. Speak truth to power!

Take off that tinfoil hat, you fool, the black helicopters are coming!

Tinfoil Hat 

The "tinfoil hat" is often a way to describe someone who's going crazy, or falling too deep into crazy internet theories. When someone tells you you're putting on a tinfoil hat, it means your going head over heels for a crazy idea.

"Dude, the world's gonna end due to alien attacks within the next 4 months. I've figured out their plans completely."
"I think you need to take off that tinfoil hat and snap back into reality."
