i think CaptainLorax is talking about the conspiracy where the US government uses propaganda films like what the bleep do we know ILX to turn us all into listless hippies with nothing better to do

This is true. I should do me some work today. I need to be writing some subqueries today and ILX is keeping me from it!

I could see a man flying past your eyes and you all would argue the physics of an illusion before thinking it was possible...

I am kind of upset the entire Atlantis mythology was not mentioned but perhaps it is there in spirit. Most New Agers/Conspiracy Theorists tend to tie it into pretty much all the other ones.

On February 10, 1980, Brian Ingram, then eight years old, was with his family on a picnic when he found $5,880 in decaying bills (a total of 294 $20 bills),

(...)

it was proven that the money found by Ingram was part of the ransom given to Cooper(...)

Ingram was eventually allowed to keep $2,860 of this money. On June 13, 2008, in accordance with Ingram's wishes, the Heritage Auction Galleries' Americana Memorabilia Grand Format Auction in Dallas, Texas sold fifteen of the bills to various buyers for a total of more than $37,000.[38]

DoD shuts down HAARP

Elvis Telecom, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 04:51 (ten years ago) link

Shutting it down is obviously the perfect cover.

I feel like HAARP has taken the place of scientific Climate Change theories. Like for many libertarian types, they can just point to crazy weather and say it proves HAARP did it rather than Al Gore.

the other night I had someone telling me that the Rockefellers engineered the feminist movement to take people's attention away from the ~real~ issues.

Merdeyeux, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 08:41 (ten years ago) link

Because the anniversary is in the news I spent some time going down the rabbit hole of Boston Marathon Bombing conspiracy weirdos. Which led to the amusing spectacle of infowars/alex jones types arguing **with each other** over whether Jeff Bauman and other victims were actors or not. Some came down firmly on the side of these people OBVIOUSLY being actors, others were of the opinion that this was so obviously a false flag operation by the US intelligence community that introducing the idea of "crisis actors" was unnecessary.

It's scary to think that probably 10% of the people around you at any given time are absolutely shithouse-rat crazy.

There is a conspiracy (of course) that the recent lost Malaysian airplane was actually piloted by remote and steered off course to a remote location, to later be used in a FF. Because that is so much easier than just using a random plane no-one has ever heard of.

Others, like “FatherOdin,” agreed, claiming that “once the media picks up this story we will once again hear nonstop about how all Whites are racist, anti-government, violent threats to America.”

...

“The Federal Government is anti-white! The Federal Government is a lawless out of control violent mob! The only solution to the Federal Government is secession!”

isn't advocating secession a violent anti-government threat to America I am confused
