Conspiracy Theorists Still Hard at Work

Conspiracy Theory: ILX hates me!!!

which "theory"?

which "that"?

For starters, whatever happened to the investigation into the mass airline/oil stock trading that occurred in the days before 9/11?

I remember reading about this airliner v. Pentagon theory what? Two years ago now?

I'm confident there are any number of interesting facts with which one could run off on one tangent or another, but like most conspiracy theories (e.g. the JFK assassination) we just don't want to believe something so simple (hi-jackers with box cutters or a wackjob with steady aim) could cause so much pain.

If, however, you're looking for more "objective facts, worthy questions and valuable insights that will make even skeptics realize that 9/11 was orchestrated and carried out by the Power Elite within our own government," George Humphrey's your man.

All the other ones (like the insider trading mystery stence mentioned above) were much scarier and much more plausible. I was really intrigued by the woman who is taking the Bush Administration to court under anti-racketeering law, claiming that they had foreknowledge and did nothing.

Every time I make the mistake of participating in some friendly conversation in a coffee shop I wind up getting an earful of 9/11 conspiracy, federal reserve conspiracy, moon landing conspiracy, etc.. And I find it sort of frightening when a person seems cool and suddenly the conversation turns that way. It's not just that the person at the next table believes something you don't, it's that you suddenly feel like you're secretly their enemy.

you are!

maybe you should stop going to CUPPA TRUTHERS

man SO many music people believe the most ridiculous shit about this stuff

one learns to smile, nod & change the subject

Yeah, one of the dudes I was talking to today was some kind of poet and the other one was a band guy

so glad I am a misanthrope who doesn't hang out with people any more

word

thank god I only hang out with you guys on the internet

and I'm only half-joking! After the mindfuck I just underwent, your handles are like 12-point Times New Roman blue beacons of sanity.

Ok, so the lunar landing wasn't really faked. That was a story put out by the government to distract people by having the public talk about WHETHER the landing happened instead of what we FOUND there.

And do you know why?

Because if people on earth realized that there were aliens out there, we'd all just be humans! No more nationalism, and then the military industrial complex would dry up!

theres an interview with sammy hagar in the last revolver where he breaks down the 3 types of aliens that visit earth: robots, angels, and actual aliens.

if only all the conspiracy people looked like this

lol

doesn't he believe he was abducted?

I was ok with my coworker in Chicago a few years who was a 9/11 conspiracy theory nut, until he got angry at me for something I said about Al Gore. It turns out he's a climate change conspiracy theory nut too. Then he sent me the link to some radio station that does nothing but take calls and agree with people who are into 9/11 and global warming conspiracy theories.

I bet these people would be great conspiracy believers:

Eugenics conspiracy theories have spiked up ever since DARPA started spending on the BioDesign project

The Pentagon’s mad science arm may have come up with its most radical project yet. Darpa is looking to re-write the laws of evolution to the military’s advantage, creating “synthetic organisms” that can live forever — or can be killed with the flick of a molecular switch.

As part of its budget for the next year, Darpa is investing $6 million into a project called BioDesign, with the goal of eliminating “the randomness of natural evolutionary advancement.” The plan would assemble the latest bio-tech knowledge to come up with living, breathing creatures that are genetically engineered to “produce the intended biological effect.” Darpa wants the organisms to be fortified with molecules that bolster cell resistance to death, so that the lab-monsters can “ultimately be programmed to live indefinitely.”

Of course, Darpa’s got to prevent the super-species from being swayed to do enemy work — so they’ll encode loyalty right into DNA, by developing genetically programmed locks to create “tamper proof” cells. Plus, the synthetic organism will be traceable, using some kind of DNA manipulation, “similar to a serial number on a handgun.” And if that doesn’t work, don’t worry. In case Darpa’s plan somehow goes horribly awry, they’re also tossing in a last-resort, genetically-coded kill switch:

Develop strategies to create a synthetic organism “self-destruct” option to be implemented upon nefarious removal of organism.

The project comes as Darpa also plans to throw $20 million into a new synthetic biology program, and $7.5 million into “increasing by several decades the speed with which we sequence, analyze and functionally edit cellular genomes.”

I have to admit that I'm somewhat freaked out by the low-end bio-hacker movement. One nice side-effect of the ultra-right's anti-science position is that they've duped themselves into still believing that guns and religion are more effective of a weapon than genetics.

I think this one has legs:

Won't say the f-word, but she will turn the can upside-down. Tsk, tsk.

Folks, I've read a lot of really weird stuff on the Internet but nothing like: http://copycateffect.blogspot.com/2014/12/Furry.html

The Huffington Post has the details: you need to know where it all started.

It all started with award-winning platinum recording artist and producer Tom DeLonge,

A week ago:

I wonder (IE this is almost certainly bollocks) whether an increased belief in large-scale conspiracy theories is influenced by increased awareness of actual large-scale conspiracies, less Stonecutters-style centralisation than 'everyone knows but no-one says' that ensure that, say, African Americans are generally getting the worst end of the economy whether it's up or down, or women have been vulnerable whatever their level of fame.

I means, I'm not saying there a connection, but if you can't see a connection, then I'm not sure what else I can say.

How many more examples are necessary?
