Is something big going on… conspiracy theory related

Ok hear me out….

the following things have put me a little bit on edge:

  • emergency alert trial from government (yes I know it’s been spoken about for years)
  • a few asteroids flying “close” and reported in press
  • A few solar/planet events… eg holes in sun creating solar winds, northern lights being so far down south, weird planetary alignments
  • nasa being able to defect the path of an asteroid in the last 6 months
  • the constant threat of nuclear war
  • chatter a few months ago about weird spy balloons and possibility of aliens?!

I can’t help but shake the feeling that some people “higher up” know something that us little folk don’t know yet and that we are being primed.

I am fully prepared to be told I’m crackers! 🤣

Definitely something going down

The doomsday clock is at 90 seconds to midnight.

I think you misread me. It's not after covid vaccination - it's after catching covid.

Yes I know - but if they wanted to cover up the vaxx side effects, of course it would be ‘after covid infection’…..not ‘after vaxx’.
Have you seen the research on myocarditis and pericarditis- especially in young teen males? The pharma comps themselves have admitted the risk for heart problems is higher after the jabs.

Yes! That's the one.

Thisisbig · 29/03/2023 14:38

This thread is lighthearted in a way so I don’t mind the mocking. Just for the record I don’t have psychosis and I did take all of the covid jabs and other vaccines that the nhs tell me to take!

i do however enjoy disaster films do maybe there is a bit of that driving my imagination. Who doesn’t love Armageddon or contagion

it’s an interesting topic that has been discussed for years. There have been wars and pandemics And natural disasters for years. It’s only natural to presume there would be more coming

I 100% believe we are further in the shit with climate change than most governments want to admit or even begin to deal with and I think nature is sending us alot of warning signals that are being ignored.
e.g droughts / heat waves, northern lights, the torrential rains we are getting.

When nature has had enough of our shit she'll get rid of us.

Your username is ace, btw!

Mummyme87 · 29/03/2023 14:40

i can’t for a second think our government could be mildly prepared for any of the above you mention

Genuine question. Did you name change just to post this "light hearted" thread? If so, why?

raspberryjuiceandpompoms · 29/03/2023 14:43

Awesome thread OP!
I believe that something is going on too. We’re long overdue a disaster. Having alerts on our phones is a good thing surely. Like saw comments from Americans saying they get these alerts when there’s shooting or a child is missing in the mall. I think it’s wise to have something like this in 21st century.

Luredbyapomegranate · 29/03/2023 14:44

You are spending too much time on social, also with the global and economic political meltdown it does all feel a bit end of days.

But none the less, the threat of nukes is less than it was in the 70s/80s, the alert tests have long been planned; espionage is always around; action in space is always around. Chatter about aliens - that bit's not real OP.

So in short no, nothing Big is going on in the way you mean.

Plenty big that's going on that's real though.

Op have you watched The Road?

Station Eleven is one of my favourites though. It is such a good series.

Thisisbig · 29/03/2023 14:45

@IClaudine Yeah I’m a long standing mumsnet user. I name change often because I talk about shit like this in real life with mates. And if I stayed the same it would be really easy to identify me. In fact, I have been identified a few years ago when I requested advice about a sick kid and a work colleague noticed this thread and asked if it was me.

I like to go hidden and name change often because I also post questions or points of view that I would only say to strangers on the net

We get warnings when there is a fire or xar accident nearby. Works very well.

Many politicians, NHS staff, Police, Civil servants and charity staff, are conspiracy theory believers, their boss or his training staff told them so... - that anyone who believes in biology is out to get great big 6 foot 2 transvestites and we are the mean ones.

Newusernameaug · 29/03/2023 14:47

I agree OP

SupplyIsLimited · 29/03/2023 14:48

There's always some disaster looming, according to someone. Then twenty years down the line you find yourself pausing your contemplation of the latest disaster-in-the-making to wonder whatever happened to the thing that was supposed to end it all back ten years ago. Well, never mind. If the current sky-is-falling scenario isn't holding our interest, the next coming apocalypse will be on the horizon shortly.

I like a disaster film as much as the next person, but a steady diet of conspiracy OR mainstream fearmongering probably isn't healthy. It certainly has the ability to poison our daily enjoyment of life, and it's likely not good for our long-term health, either, since stress is supposed to be so harmful.

Moreover, increased health-related concerns and reduced education levels also seem to be liability factors for these conspiracy beliefs."

This comment needs repeating each time someone comes along with a batshit theory. Of course along come others agreeing with them and confirming their suspicions that all is not right and 'they' are plotting 'something', then others with Agenda XYZ and what 'those in control' have planned. If you disagree or suggest things have always occurred you are often dismissed with ridiculous terms such as 'sheeple' or 'asleep'. Along with what you say you could add in assumption that anyone that disagrees is 'one of the ones helping keep it quiet' 'in on it' etc. All a bit sad really.

Tell it to politicians, the NHS, police and charities they all believe men are women.

Do you have proof that anyone who questions if a conspiracy is true is unemployed, or is that just part of the conspiracy to invalidate their thoughts?

Better a bit crackers than a rude cow.

Why don't you just say 'why have you no occupation to keep you dumb and stupid and not question anything we are told? No, I don't think doomsday is happening but a big conspiracy is happening all around ans it's political.

The PM of New Zealand is so into the conspiracy theory that if you say a man is a man he thinks it's OK to punch 70 year old women.

I think the psychosis or low intelligence in people with power globally is quite alarming.

Yeah, there is enough shit going on and anything can happen, no need for tin foil hats, just use common sense. You’d have to be somewhat silly not to prepare to cope on your own for at least a week or two.

Verbena17 · 29/03/2023 14:22

Wonder who funded the research. Because if I was a pharma company, I’d be wanting to cover up known-but-hidden (by Pfizer) side effects of the jabs 😉

Verbena can you actually share any research that confirms the various claims you have made or are you just repeating things said to you on social media?

All these repeats of cover ups hidden by 'Big Pharma' repeated often but never any data or research evidence to substantiate this 😂🙄
