craziest conspiracy theories someone you know believes

[Lelophants]

That we all died in 2021

Honestly I don't know but I'm not going there anymore because I don't want to and wouldn't lie anyway.

There's probably enough loons who do want a vaccination free holiday with fellow loons to chat to.

that once s man pops on a dress he magically becomes a woman. Or just says he's a woman, then he is one

Well, if we are, so what? How would we even know?

I know someone who believes Brigitte Macron is a man AND Lucy Letby is innocent. 2 for the price of one conspiracy theorist.

Had similar from a taxi driver
Michelle Obama is a man
Read it on the internet
So it must be true🤯

Apparently for some it's a religious thing, that the world was created exactly as described in the bible.

I know a couple who homeschooled their 2 dc as they didn’t want them learning “atheist science” at school. They’re also young earth creationists who think the world is 6000 years old.

Made me think of the worm guys in Men In Black.. ‘Rectum? Damn near killed him’ 🤣

Honestly , in the 80s the ‘ news of the world’ had drawings of aliens with big eyes and spindley arms and a photo of a car and a big spaceship nearly every week.
You don’t hear of it much these days. Maybe the aliens had a probe and realized the human race wasn’t worth it.

We're living in a computer simulation. So none of us are real.

Sometimes I wish it were true...

Poor Brigitte Macron, I feel so sorry for her with this. She’s really suffered because of this horrible rumour

I wonder how the children will turn out! Poor things.

And it’s so obviously ridiculous, given that she has children and a whole back story there.

The whole ‘ ahh, but they were once men ‘ ( Bridgette Macron and Michelle Obama ) is just pure misogyny in my book and not just put about by men either :(
Makes me wonder what they get out of it.

That's a new one on me!

That people can change sex and that there are 3 million genders

Tunnels between the continents so the 'elites' can travel easily and as the world is flat its easy..apparently
Macdonalds burgers are human remains, abducted, murdered children. See also Epstien, Disney etc as 'proof'
Amongst many theories a pal spouts. Usually entertaining, frequently eye rolling, occasionally antisemitic and at that point its walk away.

I mean they're is a grain of truth in it I suppose. Maybe not on the scale your mum thinks, thankfully

And of course Dubai does have a cloud seeding program but that definitely had nothing to do with the floods

There's a long-established trope called Godwin's Law which states "as an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison to Hitler or the Nazis approaches 1".

I think there's an equivalent of "By page two of a Mumsnet post the probability that someone will use it as an excuse to have a pop at trans people approaches 1". I suggest we call it Justine's Law.

There's something called 'a rife machine' that can cure most ills.
The cure for cancer is known but 'big pharma' will lose too much money by putting into practice.
Lots of celebrities drink/eat the adrenachhrome (??) from dead babies.
Michelle Obama is really a man.

The belief in "medbeds" is the modern equivalent of the Rife machine.

Oh..yeah @60andcounting..add that to Macdonalds burgers..once they have been 'harvested' ..forgot about that bit!

Depression is caused by demons and you need god in your life to get better.

I'll preface this by admitting my uncle smokes a shitload of skunk and is thus, fucking mad.
But he once went on a rant about Bush started the Iraq war because Saddam Hussein had an army of super soldiers (Captain America style) and Bush knew this but couldn't let the world know, so masterminded 9/11 as a way of being able to invade Iraq and defeat the secret army
