I remember the first time i heard a right wing person tell me about Qanon. She was really believing it. I was speechless when she got done.

zxqwas,

Let’s say 1/20 believable conspiracy theories are true. If I disbelieve all of them I’ll be 19/20 = 95% correct.

If I believe in one of them there is a 1/20 chance I’ll pick the right one and be 100% correct and 19/20 chance I’ll pick the wrong one and have two incorrect beliefs (one false positive and one false negative). 1/20100+19/2090 = 90.5% correct.

Feel free to correct my not even a napkin math. Or challenge the assumption that only 1/20 believable conspiracy theories are true. Or just agree and outsource the effort of thinking to someone trying to compensate lack of sleep with egregious amounts of caffeine.

captain_samuel_brady,

Most if not all of the privacy related services (VPNs, Tor, etc) are compromised. On the plus side, I think that pirating media with those services is completely safe.

HurlingDurling,

I belive there are aliens hidden in Area 51 and there is a secret tunnel network across the US that let’s these aliens move without being seen.

The Spanish former King (Juan Carlos I de Borbón) was behind 23F, the attempted coup d’etat during 1981.

cooopsspace,

The US actually makes terrorists, and by extension refugees. If 9/11 wasn’t directly an inside job they probably let it happen or created the motive for the people involved.

Australia found an SAS soldier guilty of war crimes and were on video perpetuating a really nasty culture that almost certainly creates martyrs and needlessly extended our time in Afghanistan.

BaskinRobbins,

The SAS war crimes rabbithole is really depressing. It’s almost an open secret at this point.

wwaxwork,

I believe the NRA is involved in money laundering for the Russian mob and Trump ran for office to do the same thing, launder money through donations and by paying for advertising for donations with dirty money and getting clean clean donations back.

There is a huge hairy intelligent creature that roams the forests of North America. The government is aware of it’s existence.

oopy_soup,

It doesn’t have a name, not like an actual birth name but like a species?

That’s my uncle Charlie. Don’t mind him.

Pulptastic,

I saw a large barefoot hobo footprint on the snow in my lawn once.

shiroininja,

leave Ben Kissil alone!

Strangle,

Non-human intelligence has been around on earth for a very long time and the government knows a lot more about them than they would have us believe

arefx,

Like from another planet or from this planet?

Nevermore9197,

Both. The current language people are leaking and even testifying suggests that they may be from this planet but a different demention

ProfezzorDarke,

I also think you have dementia. It’s dimension fyi

And009,

Recently been seeing few American military and govt personnel coming out providing testimony against higher level of secrecy within the system. Is that actually stirring anything

the_kalash,

Like dolphines? I know about those, too!

flossdaily,

I believe that Russia has dirt on a number of prominent Republicans. Trump is a given, what with his shady Russian financing, his connection to Epstein, the tape mentioned in the Steele dossier. But I think that there were a number of anti-Trumpers who turned on a dime. Lindsey Graham, for example, was very anti Trump for months and then became his biggest cheerleader literally overnight.

I think Russia had planned to damage Hillary in 2016, but never imagined that their man Trump would actually beat her. I think when they realized they had their man in the white house, they went all in, and used every bit of leverage they had to help him gain control of the party.

Cheesus,

For Trump it’s not so much dirt but he got a lot funding after he was a disgraced business man in the 90s that hasn’t been sourced. I always thought he got it from Russia leading towards his allegiance to them.

cogman,

This really isn’t a conspiracy, it’s pretty much just fact. The Mueller report was damning in showing the trump Russia connection. If we had sane bribery laws and a doj willing to prosecute it’d be a slam dunk. (Our bribery laws practically require an elected official while exercising their elected power to say “I’m doing this because of a sweet bribe”. Nothing less qualifies). Literally half of it was dedicated to Trump Russian connections.

The Senate intelligence report on Russian election interference confirmed the Mueller report, that the Russians were working to get trump into office.

tacosplease,

Russia hacked RNC and DNC servers and released only the interesting stuff from the Democrats’ servers. Never heard a peep of what they found on the RNC side but you can be certain it was way more shady than the little bit that came out about Democrats.

I think it’s that information plus probably longstanding financial ties to Russian donors that keeps many Republicans under Russian influence.

John McAfee is still alive

NathanielThomas,

Only his malware legacy

I’d like to believe that only his malware legacy remains alive.

talkingcat,

It actually was a weather balloon

13esq,

Context?

BeHappy,

I think TalkingCat is referring to the Chinese balloons that were recently spotted floating over the USA and into Canada, I believe. The Chinese government said they were merely weather balloons.

13esq,

Thanks

tacosplease,

The Chinese spy balloon from several weeks ago. I believe this one. Why would China send such a big, obvious thing to “spy”? They’ve got better ways.

Mark Zuckerberg a Lizard King

MonkRome,

I don’t even think it matters whether or not Epstein killed himself. Because even if he did, there was too much incentive for those in power to build in the conditions to make it easy enough to happen. IRCC, he was on suicide watch. There had to be intentional negligence to allow the suicide to occur and it seems unlikely that no one attempted to tip the scale in favor of allowing it to happen.

Lakija,

I agree! I keep saying the same thing. I think he was allowed to kill himself. They put him on suicide watch as a suggestion to him. That way their hands are washed of him by his own hand.

droans,

Even if you ignore the rich and powerful, it still makes sense.

If you were the security officer at a facility that was holding a man who trafficked and molested dozens if not hundreds of children, you would probably strongly consider “accidentally” leaving his gate unlocked or taking away any suicide prevention measures.

tacosplease,

Agreed! The broken bone in his neck is fairly common for hanging, especially when the person is older. I believe the real conspiracy is that they let him do it not that they did it to him.
