One day it will be revealed that over half of the “conspiracies” were actually truth.

Ah yes the “right way” only the liberal progressive way of thinking is allowed in the Communist States of America.


The irony of this post is just too much to handle.

You are correct, but that doesn't mean every significant event is a false flag like is suggested on this board everytime one occurs. Mass shootings...false flags. Terrorist attacks...false flags. Pandemic...false flag. Police kill a suspect...false flag.


A few years ago before I quit Facebook I had a high school friend on there who was one of these false flag gun nuts. Good friends growing up, smart kid, solid family, has a successful career. He would post the most fricking insane shite, so insane you were typically able to just ignore him. He was a Sandy Hook-truther which, of course, isn't even worth responding to. Then he said the Boston Marathon bombing was a false flag. I posted a picture of a person with a leg blown off being moved in a wheelchair at the scene, blood dripping, bone exposed, skin ripped. This motherfricker went into painstaking detail describe each stage prop used to create each portion of the wound. Like, really?

And likelihood of it being pulled off, and kept ongoing over years or decades as more people have to be let in on it and then kept a secret.


It depends on what you’re referring to here. There’s no secret that the powers above us are all connected by bloodlines, political connections, and Ivy League schools, however not all.

Whether it be hiring or supporting your Ivy League brethren, blackmail, pure greed, or compromising situations, there are ways to keep the system going. A lot of them view themselves as elitist, cut from a different cloth, thus they seek out like minded individuals and the system continues.

If you look at most politicians today, where they came from, how they got there, connections to entities like the council on foreign relations, tri-lateral commission, WHO, where they put their money, and who they support, you’ll have a different perspective. This in itself doesn’t prove a particular conspiracy but it gets you thinking. With open eyes you start to see things a little differently. Have you ever seen the Truman Show?

It also doesn’t take much to see that 6 companies own all media. Just a few companies make the entirety of our food and goods. Amazon is wrecking malls, local shops, and other online retailers. We’re again working our way to just a few select companies. Have you ever seen Resident Evil? The Umbrella Corporation is a good example. Yes, it’s just a movie but nonetheless you get the point. The elite, and just a few, control almost everything. How can this be if everyone has the same opportunities, well mostly.

I get it, it takes time and effort to research and connect the dots. It’s easier to live in a bubble and be comfortable, grazing and passing away the time. Not all conspiracies are true and not all are false, it’s up to you to open your eyes, challenge your beliefs, the way you see the world, keep growing, and asking questions.

Bad guys have also figured out that using scorn and appealing to peoples' ego by labeling some very bad deeds as "conspiracy theories" is an easy way to get away with some nefarious zhit.

Cognitive dissonance is incredibly powerful as well.

It’s easy to believe the “other” party is capable of an evil plan, much harder to accept a conspiracy that paints “your” party/team in a negative light.
