Craziest conspiracy theory

I've just come across Rick Wiles.

According to him the covid jab injected an egg in to your bloodstream. These have now hatched into a synthetic parasites and this is a plan to take over the world.

I love a good conspiracy theory. What is the craziest one you have come across?

For those mentioning Tartaria not being an empire, I have a very old globe that shows that it existed and was large. Just saying.

Tartary can be found on old maps dating back hundreds of years. It was just a blanket term to describe vast swathes of Asia.

Are you sure it's not Tartarstan, a republic in Russia? In the 19th Century, the British called all the Siberiaks, Kazakhs and Kyrgiz people Tartars.

Ignorance surrounding Tartary's use as a place name has spawned conspiracy theoriesincluding ideas of a "hidden past" and "mud floods". Such theories assert that Tartary (or the "Tartarian Empire") was a lost civilization with advanced technology and culture. This ignores the well-documented history of Asia, which Tartary refers to.[2] In the present day, the Tartary region spans from central Afghanistan to northern Kazakhstan, as well as areas in present Mongolia, China and the Russian Far East in "Chinese Tartary".

I quote from Wikipedia 😁

The adrenochrome conspiracy that the Hollywood elite kidnap and harvest children’s blood to stay young.

I mean, smidge of truth that I’m sure there are lots of rich powerful sexual abusers but it’s odd that that can’t be bad enough on its own, have to chuck in some blood drinking too?!

VelvetBow · 19/05/2024 16:29

That pigeons are a government project and are robot spy cams 🤣

Speaking of conspiracy theories that turned out to be true.. was COVID actually started by an American science lab in China, or a Chinese meat market or what?

I worked with a guy who said that the twin towers hadn't been hit by airplanes. He went on to say that they hadn't come down either.

He didn't believe in the moon landings and a multitude of other crazy theories.

What does he think happened to them then?

And why does he think 2 planes were on the ground in the middle of NYC?

Most of the conspiracy theories I’ve heard to do with Covid etc, involve the government having to be highly organised, have a plan and all be “in on it” with no one breaking ranks, this is the thing I find most unbelievable

This current government couldn't organise something that clever 😂😂

DrJonesIpresume · 19/05/2024 17:19

Morph22010 · 19/05/2024 11:26

How do you know it hasn’t happened yet? Maybe we are being controlled

To do what?

If 'they' are controlling our thoughts and/or actions, for what purpose?

Australia doesn’t exist

Oh. I thought it was the Isle of Wight.

The twin towers was a huge American planned operation to destroy some documents in a cia building nearby.

Muslims are planning a caliphate in Europe and the great replacement theory generally.

I also talked to a guy outside Westminster who was protesting about some shadowy movement that used surveillance operatives wearing red T shirts and if you looked you'd notice them everywhere.

I really loved the last episode of Jon Ronson's "things fell apart" with a conspiracy theorist who'd pulled a load of different theories into one huge user conspiracy. I could see his logic, but it was just so at odds with reality. Called "The Hero's Journey" about Mikki Willis for anyone who is interested.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 19/05/2024 10:45

I've seen a new one today. The sun was replaced during the recent solar eclipse and sunflowers don't turn to it now because they know it isn't the sun.

Not sure how in flower sunflowers are at this point mind.

That's brilliant 🤣

Well to be fair, the IOW does actually seem to be in alternative plane of space-time, you sort of pass through a portal on the ferry and land on the other side in 1973, but I actually quite like that as it goes.

My fave conspiracy theory is chem trails. Mind control drugs sprayed on the sheeple from 7 miles up, all perfectly co-ordinated by a legion of pilots and plane engineers so that the govt oh sorry I mean the illuminati can control us with mind bending control chemicals.

I mean, personally, if I was going to try and do that shiz, I’d just slip it in the sheeples food source, or water. But apparently spraying from 7 miles up is the best way to do it.

Thanks for explaining. Still not buying it but it makes sense they have alternate reality to explain it!

ILikePistachios · 19/05/2024 20:00

There's one going round at the moment that the eclipse was used to replace the sun with an artificial sun, honestly some of the videos I've seen on Tiktok are hilarious

ArchaeoSpy · 19/05/2024 12:04

Understood,

when a comment like "Because of course it did, it wouldn't be a proper conspiracy theory if all the above weren't embroiled and pulling strings in the shadows, would it?"

is made then it set the challenge.

besides as was said to Fox Mulder, the truth is out there

The truth can't be out there if there is no truth in it.

The ones that claim everything was created by a single being and all we have to do is worship it and we'll all live forever in some kind of paradise, but only after we die.

This.

And this supernatural Alien being has access to all our thoughts and controls all the good things that happen in our lives.

The bad? Oh, nowt to do with him. That's another Alien that turned rotten.

But worship and beg Alien number 1 and he may make the bad thing go away.
Just might mind you. 🤨

He often doesn't bother.

DappledThings · 19/05/2024 20:39

When you are weighed at birth your weight is your literal weight in gold. This amount of gold is then put in your secret government account which you can access later but only if you can prove you are not lost at sea. Everyone else is lost at sea because all law is maritime law. That is why courts have docks you see. Maritime.

HermioneIsMyHomegirl · 19/05/2024 21:07

That trees are all fake and the real trees are truncated mountains all chopped down to stumps.

I don't understand the point of many, but this is particularly pointless.

I’ve just remembered the Taylor swift is a psy op by the Pentagon/US military to help Biden win the election.

If it’s either a cock up or a conspiracy, it’s always a cock up.
