Are there any conspiracy theories you actually believe?

Inspired by another thread. Come on even if they're mad ones... fess up.

I cant remember the details but I remember doing a bit of online research years ago and thinking it's not 100% impossible that Tupac faked his death!

I think Dando was probably dispatched as she was planning to out some unpleasant people, publicly.

Does the Serb connection not sway you?

I don't believe in any of these high profile conspiracy theories, but I suspect that really boring cockup up coverup is far more common than people think.

"A tiny town??
Wuhan is a city of over eleven million people!"

Agreed Wuhan is large. How about what are the chances of Covid occurring naturally in Wuhan and not a lab leak when it hosts one of only two virology labs in the world specialising in coronavirus?

Does that coincidence work better for you?

I wasn’t arguing with the origin of the virus. I’d put money on it having leaked from a Wuhan lab.

I wasarguing with the description of Wuhan as a ‘tiny town’. Not just wildly inaccurate, but also indicating that the poster was sadly lacking in basic facts.

I believe this virus is man made Hmm
My husband doesn't

Not a popular woman! I never knew tori Amos wrote ‘professional widow’ about her, fits though!

She didn't.

I think in almost every case it's cock up and unintended consequences, if there is a conspiracy it's in the cover up.

I do believe it very likely that Kurt Cobain was murdered, and that Sid Vicious didn't murder Nancy. Very likely he died from suicide as opposed misadventure.
Also that the Krays were powerful was because of the gay orgies they hosted.

Don’t believe any Diana or 9/11 conspiracy theories.
I do think it’s possible that COVID wasn’t necessarily started by dirty pangolins.

IrishladyNE · 03/09/2022 14:39

There’s a few things I believe but won’t even go into it because I’d be labelled as the tin foil hat brigade. It’s fine to believe what you like as long as you don’t push it down peoples throat 😁

No.conspiracy theories are for adult crackpots that also believe in fairies at the bottom of the garden.

Have you not seen the photographs of them?
Julia Margaret Cameron I think.

Vapeyvapevape · 04/09/2022 08:03

I'm torn about Diana's death. If it wasn't an accident how could those 'responsible' be 100% sure that she would die in the crash? She may have survived it . The letter she wrote about being bumped off in a car crash was spooky though.

I don’t think Julia Margaret Cameron ever claimed her photographs were of real fairies. Are you thinking of the Cottingley Fairies photos taken by Frances Griffiths and Elsie Wright? They admitted sometime in the 80s that those photos were faked.

You can literally do simple experiments yourself to prove the earth is round. Or you can watch YouTube videos.

Covid accidentally walked out on the bottom of somebodies shoe.
