Popular Conspiracy Theories

[Husker_Du]

this could be very good. or a horrendously bad idea. let's roll the dice.

i don't much believe in this one but i just saw it and it's as good a place to start as any, i guess.

(additionally, please tell me this is a doctored pic if it is indeed the case. i'm just getting the convo started, not vetting everything)

Somebody once told you that you were smart and good looking. It's been a conspiracy ever since.

i mean it is the sun. the higher the co2 levels, the more of the sun’s heat is trapped in the atmosphere. 300 years ago humans started producing tons more co2 because of the industrial revolution. more co2 means more heat trapped which is why temperatures are raising faster than they ever have. 

that’s the core principle of climate change.

You might as well explain that the Earth revolves around the sun and you'll get the same response.

I think the most popular conspiracy theories are:

1.  JFK assassination had another shooter/was orchestrated by FBI/CIA.

2. 9/11 was an inside job/not the result of hijacked airplanes.

3. UFOs are aliens visiting the planet and covered up by the U.S. government. 

4. Covid was "planned" by US Government/Trump/Fauci/Biden to control population/get them vaccinated (or the result of a Chinese bioweapon attack) and covered up by U.S. 

5. Lots of anti semitic BS surrounding the media/hollywood/holocaust (A big part of the 9/11 conspiracy theory is anti semitic as well). 

6. Sandy Hook/Marjorie Stoneman Douglass/Las Vegas shooting/every other school shooting were all inside jobs with crisis actors to take away guns. 

7. Moon landing/flat earth, but nobody really cares about this one anymore. 

8. Every natural disaster is a conspiracy so FEMA can do something (you see something like this after every natural disaster). 

People believe this crap because the average person in this country is extremely stupid.

Hendricks was so factually stuck that even 51 former intelligence experts could not concoct a counter-Russian Hoax conspiracy.

That doesn't make any sense because somebody seeking asylum would be headed the opposite direction. Also somebody who is seeking asylum likely isn't driving, nor would they be able to purchase ammunition. Also ammunition isn't exactly hard to come by in this country, but there is a big thing about smuggling it into Mexico. Which is why this doesn't make much sense.

Maybe they are just bringing back the guns and ammo Obama sent down there.

Hmmm, the facts don't seem to line up . . .  What could be the mistake . . .  I know!!  These are toy guns and pretend ammo for all of the children.  The Asylum Seekers, who are better citizens than real Americans, are simply playing Santa Claus for their new hosts!!  What a bunch of saints!

Or . . . maybe they aren't seeking asylum but are actually criminals?!?  Nope.  Not possible.  Illegal aliens do not commit crimes so do not believe your lying eyes, thank these saints for blessing us with their presence, and let them carry on asyluming.  Now focus all law enforcement pursuits, raids, indictments, convictions, incarcerations, solitary confinement, and other justice on grandmothers walking between velvet ropes at the invitation of Capitol police officers over 4 years ago.
