Which theories, dismissed by many as conspiracy theories, do you regard as the truth?

I wish there were more conspiracies!
There must be loads going on with science or technology we don't know about! Those billionaires...There must be some weird stuff.

Those videos showing the same people being upset (actor) parents at Sandy Hook and another different shooting in America were really odd. The one showing them smiling off shot and suddenly sobbing when the camera turned on them ...

Watched a lot about the moon landing. Does anyone know how we ever got through the van allen (sp?) belt? Because that was the biggie for the non-landing'ers wasn't it?

Less of a conspiracy theory, more of a well known fact. Prince William is infertile, and Harry is the true father of George and the other ones (whose names I forget)

PaperdollCartoon · 18/02/2018 16:11

We definitely don’t know the real story of 9/11.

Would also like to know what Fatima is

eurgh2018 · 18/02/2018 16:13

I definitely think man has walked on the moon, just not in 1969. I think it happened on one of the later landings and 1969 was all propaganda because the Americans simply didn't want the Russians to beat them to it.

Princess Diana was without a shadow of a doubt, "bumped off". Far too convenient for Charles and Camilla.

Jury's outback 911, I'm not completely convinced it was an "inside job" but at the same time my brain can't quite comprehend that the various intelligence agencies knew NOTHING about it, mite likely they allowed it to happen because it gave the perfect excuse to go to war in the Middle East.

Anyone who doesn't believe that any of the Middle East conflicts have been over oil needs to give their heads a wobble.

I definitely believe big brother is watching us - the film "Enemy of the State" just felt far too plausible!!

Laiste · 18/02/2018 16:14

Oooh - i don't believe that plane crashed into the pentagon.

The 9/11 thing on Zeitgeist - fascinating.

eurgh2018 · 18/02/2018 16:15

and Charles is NOT Harry's father!!!!!! (The other bloke who looks just like him is)

Adrianflank · 18/02/2018 16:16

Adolf Hitler didn't die in Berlin, He escaped to South America with the help of the Vatican and lived the rest of his life there!

Coyoacan · 18/02/2018 16:16

I believe there is a department of the secret services thinking up weird conspiracy theories and putting them out on the internet, so that the real conspiracies get hidden among all the dross.

DorisDangleberry · 18/02/2018 16:17

and Charles is NOT Harry's father

And neither is Diana Wills and Harry's mother. It is well known that she was trans.

expertonnothing · 18/02/2018 16:17

Prince William infertile?

And what is this about Fatima? Is this a conspiracy about Our Lady? Grin

Vibe2018 · 18/02/2018 16:18

This article is sad - it explains how many people believe the Sandyhook school shooting was a conspiracy - that it was staged by actors. Parents whose small children were shot dead are now being targeted online by stupid, cruel people who believe the conspiracy.

LegallyBrunet · 18/02/2018 16:18

I started watching Hunting Hitler with my stepdad and now I'm starting to think there might be some weight to the idea that Hitler didn't die in the bunker. It's actually quite fascinating.

AnachronisticCorpse · 18/02/2018 16:19

I think Jill Dando got too close to the paedophile ring and was taken out.

ScreamingValenta · 18/02/2018 16:19

@DorisDangleberry I've never heard that one Shock. What's the reasoning behind it?

Vanillaradio · 18/02/2018 16:19

I have my suspicions about Princess Diana.
Re 9/11 my cousin was there and saw the second plane hit the tower. So there must have been at least one plane.......

DorisDangleberry · 18/02/2018 16:20

Not only were the moon landings faked, but the moon doesn't actually exist. It was blown up by the Russians when testing a hydrogen bomb in the early sixties. What we see in the sky is just a hologram projected from a remote hideout in Siberia.

isthismummy · 18/02/2018 16:21

Backenette Then you must also believe that trade centre seven fell down precisely in the same manner as a controlled demolition due to some office fires?

ScreamingValenta · 18/02/2018 16:21

@DorisDangleberry Ah, I think your next post explains it Wink.

Laiste · 18/02/2018 16:22

"I believe that the government is experimenting on certain individuals by removing parts of their brains and seeing if they can function in society. It seems one of the side effects is these individuals start to believe in any old rubbish conspiracy theory posted on the internet."

Or the side effect is that they believe whatever lies is fed to them.

I believe all of the one's mentioned.

Mummyoflittledragon · 18/02/2018 16:22

Fatima is something to do with some shepherd boys having a series of visions/visitations from the Virgin Mary 100 years ago in Fátima, Portugal and giving 3 predictions.

Sounds like a load of twaddle.

isthismummy · 18/02/2018 16:23

Vanillaradio I'm not suggesting planes didn't hit the towers. What did your cousin see exactly? How did they describe the plane? I'm genuinely interestedSmile

Mummyoflittledragon · 18/02/2018 16:24

I also watched hunting Hitler. I think it’s a distinct possibility he didn’t die.

I also don’t believe Roswell was a weather balloon.

whatsthecomingoverthehill · 18/02/2018 16:24

Not found one I believe in yet, but Finland is the most amusing.
