What is your favourite conspiracy theory?

I love the crazy conspiracy theories. So my favourite ones are that birds arent real and that Paul McCartney is dead and the man we see now is a lookalike.
What about you?

That’s Marilyn Monroe and Kurt Cobain didn’t actually commit suicide. I’ve read books on both and it’s really hard to argue that they weren’t murdered, I find them both fascinating.
Kurt Cobains finger prints werent on the gun or pen found with him, no finger prints were found on them and there was that much heroin in his system he wouldn’t of even been able to hold a gun.
Marilyn Monroe had blood pooling on different parts of her body to suggest she had been moved, the ambulance was called much earlier, a window had been smashed from the outside in not the other way round and there was no glass of water near here body it was only placed there after someone asked how she’d swallowed the pills without a drink.

Both the deaths of Marilyn and Kurt are strange.
MM sadly did have a history of overdoses but the whole situation that day/night was odd and very sad. She was a poor soul.

I had my wedding reception in the SS Olympic room, as did most of my hometown gals!

‘That the DofE gave instructions to MI6 to bump Diana Spencer off. And I’ve met ppl who actually believe it. That and governments are using the covid vaccination to inject v small tracking devices into the population’

‘When I read this post I wondered what Diana had done to anger the Department of Education... ‘

Laughing my head off as I totally thought this too 😂

TheJade · 08/12/2021 19:14

👏🏼

Love this one! 😉

Bunchymcbunchface · 08/12/2021 19:18

That Diana was killed by the royal family because she was pregnant with Dodi’s child and wasn’t allowed to marry a Muslim

And James Hewitt is really Harry’s dad.

Oh and Coke a cola tastes the same in every single country (as opposed to other soft drinks) because ALL ingredients including water are shipped in from come HQ in the USA.

Bunchymcbunchface · 08/12/2021 19:20

Oh and Suri Cruise is actually a clone made from Tom’s cells…….mind you……Scientology………..

Death of Diana.

The woman who was mother to the future king, giving BBC interviews hammering the monarchy with her stated aim to bring it down while going out with a Muslim (whose family despite great wealth were never given British citizenship for reasons unknown) and meanwhile was allegedly pregnant (!) dies in a car crash!

Now what are the odds of that......

Mrssheppard18 · 08/12/2021 19:34

Diana’s death is also one of the ones I have read books about and there’s a lot there to argue she was murdered

Eightietwo · 08/12/2021 19:37

Was this post intended to trigger loads of "covid based conspiracy theories?😴🤔

Mrssheppard18 · 08/12/2021 19:39

Yes she did I think if she was alive today she’d have been diagnosed with BPD. I have it and saw so many similarities when reading about her. There is also a book called Andy Warhol was a hoarder and that too goes into depth about how She would of been diagnosed with BPD. It was well known though that she kept a diary of all the things she saw and heard regarding the president, the mafia and frank sinatra so I don’t think it would be surprising if she was murdered

Mrssheppard18 · 08/12/2021 19:40

Exactly!

Eightietwo · 08/12/2021 19:41

God forbid that question eh!

PyongyangKipperbang · 08/12/2021 19:41

The Titanic one, when you look into it, isnt as far fetched as it sounds so I wouldnt be surprised if it were true.

And if anyone would fake their own death I could imagine Jim Morrison doing it, he did have a big interest in what would happen after he died. Thats not to say I think he did it, I think its a fan thing of not wanting him dead as a lot of fans did with Elvis, rather than a true belief that he was still alive. It just happens to fit in with who he was more than it did with Elvis so is more believable.

My absolute favourite is that Dinosaurs and Humans shared the earth. This is taught by fundamentalist christians as a way to explain dinosaurs but still keeping the whole "god made the world in 6 days" thing going. There are some EPIC articles and pictures on line, makes The Flintstones look like a documentary!

CentrifugalBumblePuppy · 08/12/2021 19:41

The only one I subscribe to David Kelly’s death. For a man who knew biology well enough to be one of the world’s leading experts in bio weapons, you’d think he’d know that the ulnar artery wouldn’t be the best option to sever as its pretty small, and the radial artery would surely be in a better position to cut? And with a blunt, 50 year old pruning knife?

Although semantics play a part in describing his position when he was found, there are differing versions of the first responders on scene stating there was little if any blood loss.

Odd. Not beyond the realms of possibility, but odd nonetheless.

TheRemotePart · 08/12/2021 19:41

I’m a fairly rational person but there’s no way Epstein killed himself. I’d go as far as to say if you believe that he DID, then you probably believe in Covid vaccine- chips-in-your-arms Wink

MMR was probably the most damaging and unshakable misinformation , despite him, himself debunking it ( and snagging a supermodel wtf)

Diana : the rate in which they cleaned that tunnel, I think, sits uneasily with a lot of sane people. Whether you believe she was pregnant etc is another thing ,but still ….

Thisgroupneverceasestoamazeme · 08/12/2021 19:42

@Grenlei it wasn’t…it was in Yorkshire…it’s a very niche and specific theory re: the Kardashians!

Comedycook · 08/12/2021 19:43

The thing is there are absolutely ridiculous conspiracy theories like flat earth and the Queen is a lizard...these are obviously nonsense. Then there's other ones which wouldn't surprise me if they're true

Eightietwo · 08/12/2021 19:43

I know 🤣 how ridiculous! Good old sweet Bill Gates, such a straight up honest guy!

Quite high if you're in a high speed car chase with no seat belt on and a driver over the limit.

Re The dinosaurs, I remember watching some US fundamentalist who said that fossils were put on earth by the Devil to deliberately trick us into thinking the earth was older than it is.

I mean why?

Maireas · 08/12/2021 19:50

Priti Patel is a cyborg.
That's the only explanation.

Diana’s close friend Rosa Monkton said Diana was definitely not pregnant at the time of her death. She has only been with Dodi for a very short time and I doubt it would have lasted.
