I have recently heard of this theory that the women who prcreated with the angels (the ones who created the nephilim) were cast into the sea and had their legs closed so they could no longer reproduce and we call them mermaids/sirens.

Also, the Leviathan is real and alive and is the reason we are no longer exploring the ocean.

    Not totally a conspiracy, because the government is only tangentially involved, but I think the AI industry is propped up by dirty energy companies. Before AI we had crypto and NFTs. Those just happen to go away right as AI is coming into use? Yeah right.

    Our governments have consistently said they can’t regulate dirty energy until alternatives are providing enough energy where they aren’t needed. Clean energy has been increasing, but this just means dirty energy needs to increase consumption by this same amount. Crypto and AI are perfect for just consuming any available energy, so then there isn’t enough left over to say we can decompression dirty energy infrastructure.

      There was a guy in the 1970s during the oil embargo that figured out you can run a V8 on literal gas fumes and get 100mpg. He drove about 200 miles to prove it. Car companies studied the car. It was true, but the car had no power; like 0 to 60 in a minute or something. It was bad for the engine, it needed a system that heated the gas and pressurized it, over complicated and basically a bomb under the car. The conspiracy is the car companies just agreed not to make it in a backroom deal with OPEC.

    I’ll repeat mine from when I did this thread 2 years ago: r/kitty.

    A subreddit for cat photos where the only written word permitted was “kitty.” Titles, comments, replies, just “kitty.” Even the rules were just 1. Kitty. 2. Kitty.

    That’s got to be a vector for covert communications, I just know it. either “When u/PM_me_your_nostrils posts a picture of an orange cat, we attack at dawn!” or there’s some steganographic messages hidden in the jpg files or something. There’s something nefarious going on there.

    JFK was killed over his preference for South Carolina style BBQ. I know enough Texans to see how that’d cause someone to be assassinated.

    A couple of originals I tend to feel are likely true:

    • The Russians helped promote the boom in cuck porn.

    • The Congressional baseball game shooting was a setup by Trump allies and the FBI helped cover it up.

      What would be the benefit of Russians promoting cuxk porn? Or do you just mean it was promoted via consumption?

        Will do my best typing on mobile: I’m thinking particularly of the interracial, “a black man can fuck your woman better than you” stuff, which seemed to me to bubble up from 4chan. Much like Pepe stuff, Q stuff, etc. Epstein was even involved there, it now turns out. So wouldn’t be without precedent. Anyway, Russia’s information warfare has for decades been about encouraging social wedges, destabilization. They promote fake conservative shit, they promote fake liberal shit, fake science shit, whatever sows division. The US’ biggest weak spot is its racism. No better wedge. And no better way to get at that than “your wife secretly wants a black man” weird shit that is ever-present and constant on 4chan. That’s the gist, without unpacking it all.

    Michael Jackson was chemically castrated by his dad so he retained his voice and as a side consequence he never fully developed mentally or biologically as a man.
    This explains how he was able to sing even higher notes as he grew old against all logic. This is a good conspiracy because we all saw and hear the effects, but we cannot test, verify or confirm any of the reasons.

    Now, the conspiracy that says Epstein didn’t kill himself a separate category for I have a ton of questions, can be verified and the US government refuses to provide details of his associates and anything related to his death. Big bran time: everyone in the government is in the play.

      Michael Jackson was chemically castrated by his dad so he retained his voice and as a side consequence he never fully developed mentally or biologically as a man.

      That’s not really how it works. We unfortunately have a couple hundred years of knowledge on how castration changed bodies in general and singing voices in particular. It doesn’t prevent one from maturing mentally.

      It seems more likely to me that his emotional regression was caused by his lack of a real childhood.

    Trump tried to flush the files he held onto. That’s why they were stored in his bathroom and why he complained about low-flow toilets when asked about it.

    7 World Trade Center. Tower 7 was damaged during the collapse of the adjacent main towers, after which fires raged for several hours. Eventually, it collapsed. The conspiracy theory is that the building was destroyed using hidden explosives, much in the same way as the conspiracy holds for the main towers. The catch is that no one was in Tower 7 when it collapsed and no one was killed or injured during its collapse, making it a conspiracy to just destroy some barely significant New York real estate. Essentially, the point of the conspiracy is just that if it were not a conspiracy, then conspiracy theorists would be forced to admit the conspiracy surrounding the main towers is also less plausible.

    I like small conspiracies that have no explanation and are irrational. Here are a few that I’ve seen with a guy I know IRL:

    The GDPR was meant to kill the internet. Or the European internet. I don’t know how but this guy was very proactive and deleted his whole web site in retaliation. He had a web site to sell stuff, now he has no web site anymore. The fun stuff is that he was already GDPR compliant.

    Vaccines against COVID were developed to kill old people. The proof I was given is “I have read on the internet that a 90 years old guy got a vaccine and he died!” Oh my god, that guy was 90 and he died? That’s totally unexpected.

    The hollow earth. It’s a fun one since it exists since forever and got a revival thanks to the nazis. I can never understand why a rebellious “don’t tread on me” idiot would blindly follow nazi theories.

    Last but not least, Bluetooth is sending radiation to do “something,” (don’t know what) and is giving that guy bad headaches in the process. When he comes into our house, he’s surrounded by Bluetooth but has no headaches, go figure.

      When i had trouble with my router, i googled the issue and landed on a forum where someone had similar issues. Obviously someone said: have you tried to unplug it and plug it back in. She answered: yes, i unplug it all the time when i don’t use the internet. The other guy replied: you know, your router only consumes this much energy, so if you leave it plugfed in, it’s this much per month and this much per year which costa you this much money, so it’s probably not woth the hassle to unplug it every time.

      The other person answerd: it’s because of the dangerous radiation, you dumbass.

    Wind turbine syndrome. People living below wind turbines suffer from headaches, dizziness, nausea, and loss of sexual function… but only if they’ve been told that people living below wind turbines suffer from headaches, dizziness, nausea, and loss of sexual function.

      When i was like 10, we didn’t have a very good cellphone reception where i lived. It was rather common back then, mobile betworks weren’t the same as they are now. They announced a new antenna to be build in my hometown. They set a construction date, a date when they were finished, and a date when it’s operational. On the very date, boomer aged people sent in angry letters, where they described horrible headaches, Insomnia and whatever sickness they got from the bad microwaves and whatnot. The phone company answered with: we’re sorry for the inconveniences, but the antenna isn’t operational for another month or two because of technical difficulties
