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

History is littered with examples of misinformation. Why would what we are 'told' be the absolute truth. Anyone who gets even halfway to the top of even the most mundane of organisations will have witnessed those at the bottom being lied to on some (often extremely mundane) level.
Having said that, some of the theories out there are off the wall and I really enjoy hearing about them.

Just wondering why you are so very angry helmut. My money's on the chemicals in the contrails.

I agree it's also very naive to think there are no cover ups/conspiracies.

Can you point to those who have said that.

The idea that the US govt. - with the help of the Israelis of course - drugged/employed suicidal Saudi's to murder over 3000 of their own citizens in their own city and then paid silencer money to the hundreds of people involve - just to invent a pretext to go into the M.E is just absurd.

Everyone with even the slightest understanding of history or politics knows that the West has been overtly and covertly meddling in the M.E without any need for any justification for hundreds of years!

Its the MMR vaccination I had. Andrew Wakefield - my hero.

This isn't the real Helmut Cupofcake The real one died in a car crash in 1966 and was replaced by a lookalike.

If you look closely the ears and eyes are different. Plus I watched a few YouTube videos about it, so it's definitely true.

Placemarking to come back to later and to investigate 🤓🤓

I'm actually Princess Diana, and yes, I am angry at how they treated me.

But really, I've suggested before why (some of these) piss me off. (Not the Paul Mccartny ones!)

The fact that so many people are unable to reason critically, to understand logic, plausibility, even history, to really dig-deep into what they are suggesting and why: this is all really bad news for us as a society.

@GrimDamnFanjo I think you've hit the nail on head.

Aged celebrity doesn't look exactly like his younger self. Surprise surprise 😆
Not many of them do, especially the ones who have had dodgy surgeries over the years

GabsAlot · 19/02/2018 10:29

the child thats gone "missing"

yeah right of course-so bothered by their missing child they paid off their mortgage with the fund they accrued and are more interested in suing people who dare say anything against them

Facebook is going to be a massive genealogy tool in about 70 years time!

SparklyMagpie · 19/02/2018 10:36

I'm really surprised nobody has mentioned the Jonbenet Ramsey/Katy Perry one 😂

theloniousmonk · 19/02/2018 10:51

There is no way Mrs May wanted to remain in the EU - she hates immigration, loves power and control etc. I think you are very gullible (or stupid) to believe she was ever a remainer.

Yes it was all so clear. I think Boris hatched the plan and how people fell for it is beyond me.

BeyondTerfyCassandra · 19/02/2018 10:57

Sparkly, I was thinking that this morning, but couldn't think of Katy Perry's name to post it Grin

SparklyMagpie · 19/02/2018 10:59

BeyondTerfyCassandra Grin I'd been waiting to see if anybody would mention it first ha

SparklyMagpie · 19/02/2018 11:00

I mean how could she not be??? 😂😂

SparklyMagpie · 19/02/2018 11:01

Dammit didn't post

Which conspiracy theories do you believe?
beluga425 · 19/02/2018 11:01

That's sad. That poor little kid that was primped up and abused?

OP posts:
SparklyMagpie · 19/02/2018 11:02

That's the one! Wonder if it will ever come out ?

SparklyMagpie · 19/02/2018 11:08

Ooh can I just add, I don't find the Jonbenet Ramsey case hilarious, just the idea that people think it's Katy Perry blow my mind

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 19/02/2018 11:08

There's a crackpot conspiracy in the US that Dunblane didn't happen, there's a website and everything. Confused As a Scot who remembers that day clearly it's quite upsetting tbh. A case I've lost hours on is Johnny Gosch. A possible white house paedophile cover up.

GabsAlot · 19/02/2018 11:08

katy perry? looks nothing like her

GabsAlot · 19/02/2018 11:10

also a 6 year age gap so no possible

beluga425 · 19/02/2018 11:13

Even if there wasn't an age gap, why would that happen? Seems totally crackpot.

isthismummy · 19/02/2018 11:15

Louis The Johnny Gosch case is very interesting isint it? So many suspicious things about it. The police not even wanting to interview Paul Bonnaci is jaw dropping.

LoisWilkersonsLastNerve · 19/02/2018 11:16

Yes it's such a sad case. His poor mother.

Callmegeoff · 19/02/2018 11:20

Not a conspiracy but my own musings. I wonder if Bowie could have faked his own death. It was conveniently close to his album release plus a very quiet funeral.

A man looking just like him popped up on sky news - the day he died. - Jack Steven.
