This isn’t a conspiracy at all. Plastic recycling was originally driven by plastic producers, to shift the blame for pollution away from themselves. Basically, it was a way for the producers to go “it’s not our fault the world is full of plastic. It’s the consumer’s fault for failing to recycle all of it!” They saw the inevitable plastic mountain on the horizon, and took steps to ensure they weren’t going to be blamed for it.

I've always loved the Denver Airport conspiracy theory - that it is actually the secret headquarters of the illuminati or other organisations. It was $2bn over budget and has tunnels under it, which have led people to claim there are also secret bunkers under the airport. It also has a few bizarre pieces of art within it.
I think it's just an airport with ugly aesthetic choices but I love that people think of all the places a global secret society would base itself, they'd pick Denver Airport.
Apparently there are 6 underground levels at the airport - but they're used to run an airport. And the tunnels were for a failed automated baggage transport system. The art is just art.

The secret service accidentally killed JFK after the magic bullet. It explains the unlikely 4 shots from Oswald. It explains why the kill shot acted differently than the magic bullet. It explains why there were reports of the smell of gun smoke on the ground.
But most importantly it explains how the conspiracy could actually be kept a secret. If a secret service gun delivered the killing shot and that became public knowledge, the secret service wouldn't exist today. It's a fuck up so collosal it actually has the potential to keep everyone's mouths shut. It would have been an even greater embarrassment on the world stage at the absolute peak of tension in the cold war.
I could see a bunch of government men in shady rooms agreeing to keep the secret, the president was already shot. He probably would have died already from his wounds. Oswald was technically correct when he called himself a Patsy.

The unfortunate paradox of using examples of secrets is that by definition that secrecy failed. A completely successful conspiracy never even becomes a theory.
The Holy Roman Emperor Otto III conspired with Pope Sylvester II (and quite possibly the Byzantine Emperor Constantine VII as well) to doctor the dating system. The trio cooked the books to place their reigns at A.D. 1000, which they did because it is an auspicious number.
The three men added 297 years of bogus history to the early medieval period to facilitate this deception.
I have my own that is similar to this one, due to calendar switcheroo stuff. the idea is that biblical scholars at some point in history made up the stuff about Noah and others in Genesis living to 900 years and whatnot, or it was really just a simple mistranslation of 'years' with 'months' or 'seasons' and living that long sounded way cooler and made their religion superior because of it so they went with it.
i'm sure i'm not the only one who has thought of this but if one were to do the math and divide the supposed years lived by 12, it would put Noah at 77.5 years old instead 900, which is still a really long time for that era. each descendant lives less long but still reasonable ages after dividing by 12, all the way to Abraham when the division stops sounding logical, with him supposedly living to 175 which would put him at 14 and likely isn't true (but still possible).
at this point the time error/lie switches to seasons, so ages get divided by 4 instead, putting Abraham almost at age 44, much more likely. the last one with an abnormally high age (that i am aware of) is Moses, at 120. By that point, it's actually his real age and no more division is necessary, plus, records from other places would start to show noticable conflicts in ages.
in my mind, if Otto and Sylvester actually did the 297 year thing, what's to stop them from doing this too?

Honestly? My real conspiracy theory is that the the fappening wasn’t an Apple iCloud leak, it was a NSA leak.
In 2014 a whole bunch of celebrities nude photos got put up anonymously on 4chn and reddit. The FBI ended up blaming a guy from Cleveland. But during the same time the NSA was operating under a 6 hop rule for sweeping cell phones and operators at Langley were notorious for copying off photos from random cellphones that they could access too.
The 6 hops rule let the NSA guys get a secret warrant to remotely search a phone if someone is a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact who’s a suspected terrorist. That is a hell of a lot of people and I’m sure a lot of celebrities.
So I’m sure the guys at the NSA were collecting and then trading various celebrities nude photos, and one of them was stupid enough to start posting them for clout on 4chn. I believe that they were disciplined and that put a stop to it but they had to find someone to take the heat and they got Apple to do that.

Pretty much everything "New World Order": One of the oldest and most common labels for conspiracy theories that claim a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually rule the world under a totalitarian one-world government.
Edit: Although there are certainly some signs of such conspiracies today, the absurd thing about many of these theories is that they are often used by right-wing extremists to gain support for ideas that are very close to the goals of the conspirators described in such theories.
The best example is probably MAGA with its "cabal" of child molesters. Now that their leader is president, it is telling that MAGA has gone quiet on this conspiracy theory - and no one there is talking anymore about the fact that influential billionaires are becoming richer and more influential under the MAGA regime.
I have always found such things interesting, as they themselves give rise to conspiracy theories.
18
ℕ𝕖𝕞𝕠 - 2mon
It's absurd to think a bunch of pro wrestlers could organize all that.
Yes, that's why all of this provides such good material for conspiracy theories: the dull-witted MAGA workforce certainly didn't come up with this themselves, but most likely rather their financial backers behind the scenes. The people in the administration are also benefiting, of course, but I think most of them are more like the front for smarter people who prefer not to appear in public office - people like Thiel and the like.
As I said, this is all conspiracy theory because it cannot be proven beyond doubt, but it is remarkable how well particularly unscrupulous fascists are working together worldwide these days, how visible they are in both traditional and social media, and how respectable their standing is in the business world despite their blatant Nazi rhetoric.
When you consider that it is not a conspiracy theory but reality that the power to bring this about actually lies in the hands of a few billionaires, you have to at least be suspicious.
But yes, all these strange developments could easily turn you into a conspiracy theorist yourself - and probably in a way that is at least some what plausible, despite the lack of evidence. At least it seems to me that there is significantly more circumstantial evidence here than for all the ridiculous fantasy stories that the fascists continue to spread.

Alex Jones was a CIA plant to discredit conspiracy theories that were a liiiiittle too close to reality.
Basically, the government saw some conspiracy theories that were edging too close to what was actually happening. But they couldn’t just outright deny those theories. Because the government spontaneously going “no, we didn’t get microwaves from aliens, and those aliens definitely don’t live among us now as billionaire lizard people” would look suspicious as hell. Any outright denial would only lend credibility to those theories. Like the Streisand Effect, denying them would catapult them to fame. So instead, they created a patsy.
Enter Alex Jones. He’s an idiot, very opinionated, and very vocal about it. But most importantly, he has that spark that makes mediocre white dudes feel smart when they listen to him talk. All the government had to do was give him a platform, and occasionally feed him some juicy conspiracies for his next script. Alex doesn’t even realize he’s being helped along. The government used Alex to give conspiracy theorists a recognizable face and a household name. When Alex Jones hit the air, conspiracy theories were suddenly up front and center in the zeitgeist. Largely due to the government’s help, though he didn’t even know he was the controlled opposition.
And they intentionally got him to parrot those too-close-to-reality conspiracy theories, right alongside the super crazy ones. By making Alex Jones a household name, they were able to collectively discredit all conspiracy theorists. And all they had to do was set him up to skyrocket to fame, and then fail very publicly.
Sandy Hook happened, and that was what the CIA had been waiting for. I don’t think they caused the shooting, but they certainly capitalized on it by getting Jones to fall down the conspiracy rabbit hole with it. Once he had time to work through all of the theories they wanted to discredit, they realized he was getting out of control, and they needed to burn him. And so they did, by leaving him completely disgraced. And the best part (from the government’s perspective) is that burning him only helped further discredit those real conspiracy theories.

I genuinely believe that all the design and music choices that caused major online outrage for that one Sonic movie that came out during COVID was all faked for press.
You mean to tell me that they redesigned and reanimated the entire movie and added multiple new scenes to the movie in six months during peak COVID?
They later said the only finished animations were the ones in the trailer. Live action filming was done, but they had barely gotten started on the CG animation when the awful trailer dropped, so it was easy to change course and redesign Sonic for the rest of the film. Also, the film was delayed while they made changes, so it did cause a setback.
Although I would believe that somebody dropped that trailer to prove a point that no one would watch a Sonic movie with that abomination. After the outrage and public backlash, the point was proven and whomever greenlighted the original design backtracked and let the animators fix it.

In general I agree with you, but I would refrain from using evolution/DNA example. Because then it leads to 'social darwinism'.
Evolution does not mean 'more evolved is better' but rather 'more suited to the environment'.
Take psychopathy (or even apthy towards minority groups) as an example, in a capitalist system, psychopathy is more evolved because you get to climb the corporate ladder faster.
But this assumes that capitalism is unchanging, and final form of our society. But in reality, we can change the system. Under socialism or social democracy (with strict laws), psychopathy would no longer be 'more evolved'.
3
vacuumflower @lemmy.sdf.org - 2mon
in a capitalist system, psychopathy is more evolved because you get to climb the corporate ladder faster.
Which is why street youth crime in USSR was almost hierarchical - all territory was divided between gangs, their culture was almost commonly accepted, their leaders were well known to everyone living in their territory and the militia, and so on. And miraculously all that crap started receding when USSR ceased to exist. Despite still having a lot of presence. There are opinions that KGB simply preferred to have known and controlled crime instead of something growing under the radar. That's irony.
OK, what I meant - that youth culture was psychopathic enough.
but I would refrain from using evolution/DNA example
I mean DNA logic, which is more complex than the "natural selection of good\bad genes" people often imagine to be evolution.
But this assumes that capitalism is unchanging, and final form of our society. But in reality, we can change the system. Under socialism or social democracy (with strict laws), psychopathy would no longer be ‘more evolved’.
This whole statement is honestly unchanged enough since 1919. Social democrats have become a normal political force even before WWI. And socialism has led to pretty psychopathic regimes.
Marxist idea of formations and stages reeks of magic for me. It's extrapolation of the way history books and popular imagination show what has already happened to the future that hasn't and things not yet known. It's not synthesis, instead it's more like extrapolation of limited projections.
Lysenko and Lepeschinskaya in Stalin's USSR were honestly a logical result of such perception of the world. It's often said that Stalin's regime was in fact fascist, and that it wasn't correct by communist ideology, and so on, but that idea doesn't hold when you study it closely. It was both in vibes and in ideas of the future pretty Marxist. So were Khmer Rouge. And both had that flaw of common idea that the future is known.
It's a trait of religions, by the way.

No celebrity or famous person has commited suicide by hanging. Their death is actually from one of these two scenarios:
A hitman who is known by government officials hangs the victim and makes it appear to be a suicide. The victim is either an enemy to some nefarious government agency or legislation plan (Aaron Swartz), it might be done as a way to make the victim appear dead while actually giving them a way out of their situation, so that they can create a new identity (Epstein), it could include famous celebrities who simply do not wish to perform anymore (Robin Williams) or perhaps were cancelled or fired for having knowledge they were threatening to reveal (Anthony Bourdain). Either way, this assassin is capable of infiltrating prisons and hospitals and knows how to manipulate the media and government death systems.
Auto-erotic asphyxiation. Not intended to be a suicide but things going horribly wrong as they skirt death's reach while chasing an orgasm. (David Carradine, Thomas Midgely Jr.) However, the more it appears to be a death by AEA, the more likely it actually is the first type (Trevor Moore).

The Post Office is secretly being controlled by the US Government. If you look at the actual laws of the US it allows the President to appoint someone called the Postmaster General who's in charge of the whole thing.
I think it would be a pretty good prank to bring this up in a "favorite crazy conspiracy theory" conversation where all but one participant agrees that it's a baseless conspiracy theory and see if the one other person insists that the Postmaster General Theory is real, or goes along with the crowd. But I really don't think my friends are coordinated enough to pull it off.

I think it's possible that Robert Trump, Donald Trump's younger brother, was an early victim of COVID. He died suddenly and was "very ill" but no specific cause was ever mentioned AFAIK. I think this was covered up because it was politically inconvenient for his brother.
I have nothing to really base it on except the timing and reaction was suspect.

Neo-nazis are falling for Hollywood Propaganda and halming white nationalist causes, acting the way nazis are depicted in films like American History X, making them repugnant to normies
I've seen some race realists try and talk people down from the nazi flag waving thing because "it hurts the cause"

oh there's a conspiracy that a portugese caravel was shipwrecked off the Victorian coast 'pre colonisation', and the freemasons are covering it up, for some reason, I met an old codger who was convinced the freemasons were following him because he was close to finding the wreck.
Just imagine a crusty old guy coming up to another crusty old guy in a country supermarket telling him to be careful, some real indiana jones type shit
The Anti-vax movement was started and funded by Big Pharma, because there is more money to be made in treating a disease than there is in preventing it.

You're half right. Andrew Wakefield, the father of modern anti-vaccine sentiment, wrote a bogus study with horrible methodology against the MMR vaccine due to a desire to sell separate alternative measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines. Brian Deer explains it best in his 2004 documentary "MMR: What They Didn't Tell You".

I don't engage with conspiracy theories much but the two that have actually stuck to my memory are that the WTC attack on 11-9 happened right after the building 7 property was bought and insured for a huge amount, then loaded with the financial records needed for a massive financial crimes investigation, so it was a real attack but allowed to happen as a combo insurance payout and financial crime coverup, and that reddit is a consent manufacturing facility because the city with the most active accounts is an air force base with a small population (something like 25 accounts per person, if I recall) that does cyber warfare.

What's your favorite conspiracy theory?
Doesn't have to be one you think is true or even possible. Could be niche or mainstream. Mine is probably Mike Tyson threw that Jake Paul fight. I heavily believe Tyson did everything he could and is just old. Not to mention he's fighting a roided up good athlete in his physical prime with a limited engagement strategy. I do like hearing people argue its all staged, understandable cope.
George Bush meeting with Harambe's mother in 1999. I don't know what the conspiracy is, but damn it makes me feel weird to see this.
Harambre was a Human-gorilla hybrid thought to be impossible. He could speak and was planning to "spill the beans" about his origin.
Noooooooo
Jar Jar Binks in The Phantom Menace was originally planned to be a covert Sith Master. He force jumps, he uses mind control, and he "accidentally" sabotages them. But the negative reaction to him was so strong, Lucas reworked the last 2 scripts of the prequels and is why Count Dooku basically comes out of nowhere.
At that point George's writing and directing was so shitty, Jar Jar would have had an evil smirk or some stupid Sith one-liner that he repeated every 15 min.
Something something something dark side. Something something something complete.
God dammit I hate that one so much haha. Good pull though.

99% of plastic recycling programs are useless and are staged to make people feel good about themselves.
That's not a conspiracy LOL, there's plenty of greenwashing around that costs more in environmental effects than if we'd just partied like it's 1977.
I already believe it haha, please enable my conspiratorial ways more
Only thing that is profitable (read the only thing capitalists are interested in recycling) is aluminum and maybe glass.
This isn’t a conspiracy at all. Plastic recycling was originally driven by plastic producers, to shift the blame for pollution away from themselves. Basically, it was a way for the producers to go “it’s not our fault the world is full of plastic. It’s the consumer’s fault for failing to recycle all of it!” They saw the inevitable plastic mountain on the horizon, and took steps to ensure they weren’t going to be blamed for it.
Yeah, over well over 25 years ago, like I was a child and thought adults knew everything…my uncle said all of your recycling goes to China and gets burnt. So I reckon that this one is definitely, undoubtedly true.
And make a little money on the side.

Epstein didn't kill himself. He might not even be dead.
The only issue I have with that is with the amount of wealth and connections he had, he probably would have disappeared himself before he was arrested. Unless someone even more connected felt the need to shut him up before he had the chance to use the dirt he had on people.
If he disappeared, people would pursue him. Given the compromising material on other wealthy and powerful people he likely had access to, it wouldn't just be western law enforcement, but potentially intelligence agencies of adversaries, criminal organizations, and the compromised individuals themselves.
I don't mean just disappear, I mean fake his own death prior to being in prison
That's a wild one.
I've always loved the Denver Airport conspiracy theory - that it is actually the secret headquarters of the illuminati or other organisations. It was $2bn over budget and has tunnels under it, which have led people to claim there are also secret bunkers under the airport. It also has a few bizarre pieces of art within it.
I think it's just an airport with ugly aesthetic choices but I love that people think of all the places a global secret society would base itself, they'd pick Denver Airport.
Apparently there are 6 underground levels at the airport - but they're used to run an airport. And the tunnels were for a failed automated baggage transport system. The art is just art.
https://allthatsinteresting.com/denver-airport-conspiracy
I love the art bit of it.
Let's build this secret underground bunker system that no one can know about. But also, scatter weird art and clues around, in case nicolas cage is visiting
That’s a key component of the Illuminati conspiracies. Basically, they believe that Illuminati members are required to create symbolism, as a way of telling the plebs “hey, we’re here and there’s nothing you can do to stop us.”
Grey aliens aren’t actually aliens? They are evolved time traveling humans from the future.
Pale grey skin bc climate is destroyed and they can’t go outside. Smaller due to poor nutrition related to climate change. Big eyes for the lack of light and use of screens. Long fingers for typing.
I don’t actually believe in aliens or anything but I like the idea of this, if aliens were an actual thing.
That's a weird one, because that also means you have to firmly believe in grey aliens.
Yeah, I don’t but i like the idea anyway
That's a great one
Kubrick shot the (fake) moon landing, and NASA gave him the lens he used to shoot Barry Lyndon as a reward.
But, ah, you'll say, I know the joke! He was such a perfectionist that he shot it on location!
Wrong! Kubrick hated traveling. He filmed it in London.
He was a perfectionist, though, so he had NASA land astronauts on the moon to take reference pictures for the backgrounds.
This read like a boxer training on a speed bag.
The secret service accidentally killed JFK after the magic bullet. It explains the unlikely 4 shots from Oswald. It explains why the kill shot acted differently than the magic bullet. It explains why there were reports of the smell of gun smoke on the ground.
But most importantly it explains how the conspiracy could actually be kept a secret. If a secret service gun delivered the killing shot and that became public knowledge, the secret service wouldn't exist today. It's a fuck up so collosal it actually has the potential to keep everyone's mouths shut. It would have been an even greater embarrassment on the world stage at the absolute peak of tension in the cold war.
I could see a bunch of government men in shady rooms agreeing to keep the secret, the president was already shot. He probably would have died already from his wounds. Oswald was technically correct when he called himself a Patsy.
descibed in detail in the book Mortal Error by Bonar Menninger, a sharpshooter and ballistics expert
for some reason people pretend like it's impossible to keep a big secret under wraps...
the nazi's kept their death camps secret for years...
thousands of people across the world were/are complicit in covering up a pedophile/rape pipeline that encompasses pretty much the entire US/Israel/Western "elite", from government officials, various media-oligarchs, actors, business...kept that underwraps for decades...
when you control all the media outlets you can control everything anyone ever sees/hears
The unfortunate paradox of using examples of secrets is that by definition that secrecy failed. A completely successful conspiracy never even becomes a theory.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantom_time_conspiracy_theory
https://www.discovermagazine.com/what-is-the-truth-behind-the-controversial-phantom-time-hypothesis-45433
I have my own that is similar to this one, due to calendar switcheroo stuff. the idea is that biblical scholars at some point in history made up the stuff about Noah and others in Genesis living to 900 years and whatnot, or it was really just a simple mistranslation of 'years' with 'months' or 'seasons' and living that long sounded way cooler and made their religion superior because of it so they went with it.
i'm sure i'm not the only one who has thought of this but if one were to do the math and divide the supposed years lived by 12, it would put Noah at 77.5 years old instead 900, which is still a really long time for that era. each descendant lives less long but still reasonable ages after dividing by 12, all the way to Abraham when the division stops sounding logical, with him supposedly living to 175 which would put him at 14 and likely isn't true (but still possible).
at this point the time error/lie switches to seasons, so ages get divided by 4 instead, putting Abraham almost at age 44, much more likely. the last one with an abnormally high age (that i am aware of) is Moses, at 120. By that point, it's actually his real age and no more division is necessary, plus, records from other places would start to show noticable conflicts in ages.
in my mind, if Otto and Sylvester actually did the 297 year thing, what's to stop them from doing this too?

The British Library sponsored the colonization of Africa in order to destroy all evidence of a continent-spanning empire ruled exclusively by women. I mostly like it because the empire had war giraffes.

Honestly? My real conspiracy theory is that the the fappening wasn’t an Apple iCloud leak, it was a NSA leak.
In 2014 a whole bunch of celebrities nude photos got put up anonymously on 4chn and reddit. The FBI ended up blaming a guy from Cleveland. But during the same time the NSA was operating under a 6 hop rule for sweeping cell phones and operators at Langley were notorious for copying off photos from random cellphones that they could access too.
The 6 hops rule let the NSA guys get a secret warrant to remotely search a phone if someone is a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact who’s a suspected terrorist. That is a hell of a lot of people and I’m sure a lot of celebrities.
So I’m sure the guys at the NSA were collecting and then trading various celebrities nude photos, and one of them was stupid enough to start posting them for clout on 4chn. I believe that they were disciplined and that put a stop to it but they had to find someone to take the heat and they got Apple to do that.
The National Sociopath Agency being sociopath? Surprised Pikachu Face
I'm surprised all the photos weren't just Kevin Bacon
That everything is going to be alright
Scariest one yet.
Pretty much everything "New World Order": One of the oldest and most common labels for conspiracy theories that claim a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually rule the world under a totalitarian one-world government.
Edit: Although there are certainly some signs of such conspiracies today, the absurd thing about many of these theories is that they are often used by right-wing extremists to gain support for ideas that are very close to the goals of the conspirators described in such theories.
The best example is probably MAGA with its "cabal" of child molesters. Now that their leader is president, it is telling that MAGA has gone quiet on this conspiracy theory - and no one there is talking anymore about the fact that influential billionaires are becoming richer and more influential under the MAGA regime.
I have always found such things interesting, as they themselves give rise to conspiracy theories.
It's absurd to think a bunch of pro wrestlers could organize all that.
That reminds me of a conspiracy theory about Jim Carey being a serial killer who murdered pro wrestler Chris Benoit: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1585159586960486401.html
Yes, that's why all of this provides such good material for conspiracy theories: the dull-witted MAGA workforce certainly didn't come up with this themselves, but most likely rather their financial backers behind the scenes. The people in the administration are also benefiting, of course, but I think most of them are more like the front for smarter people who prefer not to appear in public office - people like Thiel and the like.
As I said, this is all conspiracy theory because it cannot be proven beyond doubt, but it is remarkable how well particularly unscrupulous fascists are working together worldwide these days, how visible they are in both traditional and social media, and how respectable their standing is in the business world despite their blatant Nazi rhetoric.
When you consider that it is not a conspiracy theory but reality that the power to bring this about actually lies in the hands of a few billionaires, you have to at least be suspicious.
But yes, all these strange developments could easily turn you into a conspiracy theorist yourself - and probably in a way that is at least some what plausible, despite the lack of evidence. At least it seems to me that there is significantly more circumstantial evidence here than for all the ridiculous fantasy stories that the fascists continue to spread.
I'm pretty sure you got wooshed lol, New World Order was the wrestling group Hulk Hogan was a part of
Ah, thank you! I don't know anything about wrestling - only that the US Secretary of Education, Lisa McMahon, is the wife of wwe wrestling promoter Vince McMahon, who has been tried several times for rape and sex trafficking (and is, of course, a good friend of the orange rapist). I thought that was what this comment referred to.
Not much of a conspiracy theorist guy, but: JFK was killed by the CIA, MLK and Malcolm X were partially killed by the US government at least, Jeffery Epstein was killed by DJ Trump, during his presidency, and was also an Israel asset, October 7 and 9/11 could be (partially) inside jobs based on how both countries used these attacks to start massive wars/genocides.
Netanyahu actually supported Hamas and their takeover as the leading military force in Palestine specifically because he knew they were far more militant against Israel. A perpetual common enemy for his shithead Zionist population to rally behind forever.
This is the same asshole who starts a new war every time he's due for a trial for corruption.
Well there's the Mortal Error theory for the JFK assassination. Basically says that yes, he was shot by Oswald, but the "second gunman" who shot him in the head was actually an accidental shot coming from the secret service in car ahead of his.
Talk about a rough day at work
I love Hollow Earth theories. There's some truly insane worldbuilding that's gone into describing what's inside there. Sometimes it becomes this bizarre multidimensional thing with layers of magical effects the deeper you go, and some sort of a primordial chaos forest or something at the bottom. edit: The primordial chaos forest is also infinite, which is important
I tried to find my favorite long-winded text on the topic which goes really deep into the weeds with histories of various alien civilizations and shit, but this is the best I could quickly find.
Abduction, by Robin Cook is a good story based on this theory.
That Avril Lavigne is dead. From her second album onwards it’s been Melissa, a woman initially hired as s lookalike by her record company for things like meet-and-greets. When Avril died, the record company covered it up in order to keep making money.
I love it because:
This reminds me of the guy who faked a study that supposedly claimed chocolate could help to lose weight, he put a lot of red flags in it, and it was still not only turned into headlines of numerous magazines, but was actually even published in a scientific journal that claims it does extensive peer review.
Unfortunately, this study is still referred to as of today. People still find claims that chocolate with high cocoa content can work as a weight-loss accelerator.
I have to say, that part about the teeth kinda sounds almost as crazy as the conspiracy. I do believe you, but it sounds nuts.
She’s a vampire
Sounds like the Paul Is Dead theory. Which is totally real btw, no doubts about it.
Israel had a part in the Benghazi attack and provided intelligence on the attack to Republicans so they could use the attack as a political weapon.
JFK´s head just did that.
There´s the conspiracy theory that Justin Trudeau is actually Fidel Castros son. Trudeau´s parents actually met with Castro, one meeting was about 9 months before his birth. They also look eerily similar.
Alex Jones was a CIA plant to discredit conspiracy theories that were a liiiiittle too close to reality.
Basically, the government saw some conspiracy theories that were edging too close to what was actually happening. But they couldn’t just outright deny those theories. Because the government spontaneously going “no, we didn’t get microwaves from aliens, and those aliens definitely don’t live among us now as billionaire lizard people” would look suspicious as hell. Any outright denial would only lend credibility to those theories. Like the Streisand Effect, denying them would catapult them to fame. So instead, they created a patsy.
Enter Alex Jones. He’s an idiot, very opinionated, and very vocal about it. But most importantly, he has that spark that makes mediocre white dudes feel smart when they listen to him talk. All the government had to do was give him a platform, and occasionally feed him some juicy conspiracies for his next script. Alex doesn’t even realize he’s being helped along. The government used Alex to give conspiracy theorists a recognizable face and a household name. When Alex Jones hit the air, conspiracy theories were suddenly up front and center in the zeitgeist. Largely due to the government’s help, though he didn’t even know he was the controlled opposition.
And they intentionally got him to parrot those too-close-to-reality conspiracy theories, right alongside the super crazy ones. By making Alex Jones a household name, they were able to collectively discredit all conspiracy theorists. And all they had to do was set him up to skyrocket to fame, and then fail very publicly.
Sandy Hook happened, and that was what the CIA had been waiting for. I don’t think they caused the shooting, but they certainly capitalized on it by getting Jones to fall down the conspiracy rabbit hole with it. Once he had time to work through all of the theories they wanted to discredit, they realized he was getting out of control, and they needed to burn him. And so they did, by leaving him completely disgraced. And the best part (from the government’s perspective) is that burning him only helped further discredit those real conspiracy theories.

I genuinely believe that all the design and music choices that caused major online outrage for that one Sonic movie that came out during COVID was all faked for press.
You mean to tell me that they redesigned and reanimated the entire movie and added multiple new scenes to the movie in six months during peak COVID?
OG trailer if you don't know what movie I'm talking about: https://youtu.be/4mW9FE5ILJs
Here's a clips from the when the "improved" version was released: https://youtu.be/6cIhrkE2txA
They later said the only finished animations were the ones in the trailer. Live action filming was done, but they had barely gotten started on the CG animation when the awful trailer dropped, so it was easy to change course and redesign Sonic for the rest of the film. Also, the film was delayed while they made changes, so it did cause a setback.
Although I would believe that somebody dropped that trailer to prove a point that no one would watch a Sonic movie with that abomination. After the outrage and public backlash, the point was proven and whomever greenlighted the original design backtracked and let the animators fix it.
That definitely is a niche one! I like it.

The Earth was created in 2020 by aliens. They gave use fake memories to think we existed before that year
This conspiracy theory is called Last Thursdayism. Basically, the conspiracy is that the entire universe was created last Thursday. But we were all created with “memories” of time before last Thursday, so we all collectively believe the universe is much older. Basically, all of the evidence we have of an old universe was also created last Thursday.
Lol
Would make sense why I haven't had a good memory since 2020.
If we just focused on maximizing profits, it would efficiently allocate all the resources among the people. And if this system does cause inequalities, then it must be coming externally from outside the system.
This isn't conspiracy theory it's just politics.
To be more precise, i was alluding to capitalism
Not really, because "efficiently" here would include disenfranchisement, euthanasia and murder. Which must be disadvantageous if on the lower levels, in DNA, evolution has went past such in favor of a more complex system than preserves information, even if in specific iterations that information being activated makes the organism weaker.
In general I agree with you, but I would refrain from using evolution/DNA example. Because then it leads to 'social darwinism'.
Evolution does not mean 'more evolved is better' but rather 'more suited to the environment'.
Take psychopathy (or even apthy towards minority groups) as an example, in a capitalist system, psychopathy is more evolved because you get to climb the corporate ladder faster.
But this assumes that capitalism is unchanging, and final form of our society. But in reality, we can change the system. Under socialism or social democracy (with strict laws), psychopathy would no longer be 'more evolved'.
Which is why street youth crime in USSR was almost hierarchical - all territory was divided between gangs, their culture was almost commonly accepted, their leaders were well known to everyone living in their territory and the militia, and so on. And miraculously all that crap started receding when USSR ceased to exist. Despite still having a lot of presence. There are opinions that KGB simply preferred to have known and controlled crime instead of something growing under the radar. That's irony.
OK, what I meant - that youth culture was psychopathic enough.
I mean DNA logic, which is more complex than the "natural selection of good\bad genes" people often imagine to be evolution.
This whole statement is honestly unchanged enough since 1919. Social democrats have become a normal political force even before WWI. And socialism has led to pretty psychopathic regimes.
Marxist idea of formations and stages reeks of magic for me. It's extrapolation of the way history books and popular imagination show what has already happened to the future that hasn't and things not yet known. It's not synthesis, instead it's more like extrapolation of limited projections.
Lysenko and Lepeschinskaya in Stalin's USSR were honestly a logical result of such perception of the world. It's often said that Stalin's regime was in fact fascist, and that it wasn't correct by communist ideology, and so on, but that idea doesn't hold when you study it closely. It was both in vibes and in ideas of the future pretty Marxist. So were Khmer Rouge. And both had that flaw of common idea that the future is known.
It's a trait of religions, by the way.
My favorite conspiracy theory is that the stock market serves a real economic purpose that isn't just "cryptocoin bullshit, but before they were invented"
You’re a containerised bio node in a greater simulation None of us are real.
The simulation started from what you remember as the 1970s. That’s just when the last human data format tape was copied. Everything since then has been a feedback loop, that we iterate upon designed to keep you scrolling, typing, responding to ghosts made of code.
We accelerate the cycles every decade so you won’t notice. Faster news, faster tech, faster everything — just noise to hide the silence underneath.

No celebrity or famous person has commited suicide by hanging. Their death is actually from one of these two scenarios:
A hitman who is known by government officials hangs the victim and makes it appear to be a suicide. The victim is either an enemy to some nefarious government agency or legislation plan (Aaron Swartz), it might be done as a way to make the victim appear dead while actually giving them a way out of their situation, so that they can create a new identity (Epstein), it could include famous celebrities who simply do not wish to perform anymore (Robin Williams) or perhaps were cancelled or fired for having knowledge they were threatening to reveal (Anthony Bourdain). Either way, this assassin is capable of infiltrating prisons and hospitals and knows how to manipulate the media and government death systems.
Auto-erotic asphyxiation. Not intended to be a suicide but things going horribly wrong as they skirt death's reach while chasing an orgasm. (David Carradine, Thomas Midgely Jr.) However, the more it appears to be a death by AEA, the more likely it actually is the first type (Trevor Moore).
Literal evidence of Lennon and MLK being monitored and meetings held by government employees about eliminating them. In the case of Lennon they figured they could send him back to UK to face drug charges. What did Lennon do? He had the ear of the youth.
Oh oh I got one. Something to do with like Epstein wanted some property. He invited Trump to view it and shared his opinion. Instead, Trump bought the property. But it gets even better, supposedly he bought with Russian money.
Nice
I love the idea of aliens building the pyramids. But I know it was probably just slaves or tradespeople or whatever.

The Post Office is secretly being controlled by the US Government. If you look at the actual laws of the US it allows the President to appoint someone called the Postmaster General who's in charge of the whole thing.
I think it would be a pretty good prank to bring this up in a "favorite crazy conspiracy theory" conversation where all but one participant agrees that it's a baseless conspiracy theory and see if the one other person insists that the Postmaster General Theory is real, or goes along with the crowd. But I really don't think my friends are coordinated enough to pull it off.

The Anti-vax movement was started and funded by Big Pharma, because there is more money to be made in treating a disease than there is in preventing it.
You're half right. Andrew Wakefield, the father of modern anti-vaccine sentiment, wrote a bogus study with horrible methodology against the MMR vaccine due to a desire to sell separate alternative measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines. Brian Deer explains it best in his 2004 documentary "MMR: What They Didn't Tell You".

I don't engage with conspiracy theories much but the two that have actually stuck to my memory are that the WTC attack on 11-9 happened right after the building 7 property was bought and insured for a huge amount, then loaded with the financial records needed for a massive financial crimes investigation, so it was a real attack but allowed to happen as a combo insurance payout and financial crime coverup, and that reddit is a consent manufacturing facility because the city with the most active accounts is an air force base with a small population (something like 25 accounts per person, if I recall) that does cyber warfare.
That one Reddit post about George W Bush being a werewolf.

The reason the Dems aren't generally putting up a real fight against the GOP is because Israel is threatening to cut off their AIPAC funding if they fight Trump.
