Conspiracy theories needed please

[DifficultPifcultLemonDifficult]

Bloody homeschooling.

My plan this week has been to give my dc a new conspiracy theory every day, we have done whether the moon landing videos were real or not, then whether crop circles were real or not, so they look at evidence from both sides and form their opinions then tell me why they think that.

Any other vaguely child friendly (11 and 13) things we could research?

TIA

Area 51 and Aliens?

There's one about the sinking of the Titanic which might be of some interest. I like this idea - teaching your kids to think critically about the information they're consuming, might steal it for when mine is older. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanicconspiracyy_theories

Spontaneous human combustion
Cattle mutilations
Roswell
Princess Diana murdered by MI6

Bit bloodthirsty, but mine would have loved that at those ages!

Chem trails is pretty kid friendly. A complete load of cobblers obviously to anyone with half a brain. I’m sure your dc will reach that conclusion too.

Moon landings, Marilyn Monroe knew too much, vaccinations cause autism, new world order (very confused about the point of this myself), the Queen is a lizard 🦎, illuminati!

Flat earth 😂

My favourite is that Jim Morrison didn't die but had plastic surgery and is actually Barry Manilow.

Flat earth
The Borely rectory 'haunting'
Paul McCartney died and was replaced

Elvis still alive

Creationism, young earth, dinosaurs were either dragons or put there to fool us...all that jazz

Definitely flat earth
The Royal family are lizards is an interesting one 🤣🤣

On a more serious note, global warming. Some people consider that to be a conspiracy

Bah ha ha ha ha! This is hilarious 😂

Ahhh thank you, some amazing ideas, this might keep me going through the whole time the schools are shut 🤣

I have never heard that Jim morrison is Barry mannilow before. Might look into that myself that would be absolutely amazing if it was true 😂

Flat earth one is a good one.

My favourite is that Finland doesn’t exist, but I don’t think the argument holds any water whatsoever, so not much research required.

All the stuff about Bill Gates and 5G is batshit but strays into some unsavoury claims so possibly not too kid friendly.

Atlantis
The Great Flood

Megalodon still existing in the deep oceans
Nessie

Elvis. Did he fake his own death in 1977 because he wanted to retire?

Who shot JFK?

Flat earth,

The RF as lizards

Diana’s death

Paul McCartney died and was replaced.

Elvis faked his death... I once listened to someone talking about that on national radio, he was deadly serious, and said that It was a known fact that during the funeral Elvis was sweating in his coffin 😂

Were the fairy photographs faked.

The illuminati
AIDS invented by the CIA

I like the Finland one too.

Flixborough
Billy Shears aka Paul McCartney
Mk ultra
Denver airport

The Cottingley Fairies? Sadly, yes. But I remember before the story was debunked reading an article in my gran's Weekly News and being totally freaked out by them.

I so want Barry Manilow to be the lizard king (ooooh lizards again) I mean, he's called Barry FFS!

Thanks so much for the ideas. I have the next couple of weeks planned now.

Denver Airport? Is that the one where they have loads of space underneath and they think its something to do with aliens because of weird murals on the walls?
