Do you like conspiracy theories

[Lyrin 28]

What is your favorite conspiracy idea?

I actually think the world is a world government, and that they are hiding stuff for themselves and giving the scraps back to us. Like there is some caste system which some chosen people in a circle gets what they need, and the one outside it gets the scraps from within that circle

"Do you like conspiracy theories?"

That's a rather odd way to frame the question.  I wouldn't say I like conspiracy theories, but I also acknowledge that just because something is viewed as a 'conspiracy theory' does not automatically make it false.  I have always maintained that with any controversial topic you that falls into this arena, if you take what we are told by the government and the media in one hand, and the wildest possible conspiracy theory in the other, the truth will never be one or the other but lie somewhere in between.

9/11 would be a great example of this.  I don't buy that the entire thing was planned by the CIA, but at the same time the story that the lead hijacker's passport was found in the rubble five days after a plane full of fuel crashed into a building and caused a fire that contributed to weakening the structural integrity of the building to the point where it collapsed is laughably transparent.

Whereas I don't think the US authorities planned the entire thing, there is seemingly precedent for said authorities allowing something of this magnitude to happen.  There is considerable cause to believe that the US administration were aware of the impending attack on Pearl Harbour and allowed the attack to take place, while also ensuring that the Pacific Fleet's most important assets (their aircraft carriers) were out on maneuvers at the time and were thus were not destroyed in the attack.

Did the government allow 9/11 to happen?  I don't know, but if you look at what happened in the aftermath, for example the passing of the Patriot Act, it does seem at least plausible.

I think the president is at fault. He was warned of the attack beforehand. Maybe he got some guys inside to weaken it as an excuse to invade other countries in order to make USA look good in fighting evil. USA are good at content creation though, but that is just something that might be true. Because USA live much on imperialism, globalism doesn't benefit the US as a global economy. Its also a way for people in power to lose jobs, so this is a way to keep the jobs while running the green. So the idea to adapt to globalist narrative is not profitable. So they most likely set this up in order to war with other countries i think.

For example the EU was made so that they could get more money from their neighboring countries after the war without working themselves, as an excuse it was to cooperation and lack of future wars and to prevent fascism while they create jobs for re-education system and engineers. So that way no more wars could happen, and all the cash these countries make is something the EU takes it all in. The fishing industry, everything if you are in EU.

Its all part of the big world.

Oh I adore conspiracy theories ^-^ Even if I don't believe (Except Illumiati, they're real) it's really funny game to play!

My favorites is about secret societies, fighting for the world domination. Ya, all that Masons and Templars and stuff.

[Megas 27,766]

I look them up for a good laugh but most of the time it's difficult to actually find interesting conspiracy theories that actually sound credible

Would you stop it with the Illuminati nonsense?

Not every eye in a triangle means the Illuminati specifically is involved. The eye in the triangle can also simply mean psychic magic or fortune telling.

I not only don't like,  but I am totally against them. Conspiracy theories hurt and mislead people and create prejudices against a person or a group They have turned people against people. They even create panic and turmoil. Nothing that's forged can be right.

The country I am living now is full of them, the majority spread by a huge and powerful media group, which have even made people elect a monster for president in the eighties.

Its harmless speculation. You can always debunk them if you wanna join in the discussion.

Any given conspiracy theory is an attempt by someone to get at the truth of a matter that they consider the general public is being lied to about.  Are they always right? No, are they always wrong? Also no.

They should always be taken with a pinch of salt but should not be dismissed offhand, unless of course there is irrefutable evidence of their falsity, or you have no interest in what the truth may be.

I don't even need to say how ridiculous that sounds from any point of view that apparently isn't yours.

 

I like conspiracy theories, and they're quite frankly a necessity. Questioning leaders and their actions in suppressing the truth is something that should be allowed in any democracy, or else it quite frankly isn't democratic. Some of them end up being total nonsense, but some of them might actually be true, and that also makes them a pretty good exercise of independent thinking (like society doesn't like to do).

[Victoria Sponge 1,017]

As much as I hate the lies the media tells, I don't think it goes as far to make stuff up as some of these conspiracies believe. 

9/11 is the one that annoys me the most, because so many people believe it was set up. Obviously there's something they're not telling us but what happened definitely happened, planes hit buildings in a way that caused them to fall apart.

Flat Earth and the moon conspiracies also annoy me because its been thoroughly proven that the Earth is round and that NASA did put men on the moon, but people still refuse to believe that.

[They call me Loyalty 1,948]

All reality is abstract. All being contained in one, and directed in its own intelligence.

Therefore, reality translates as the ever changing construct of reality.

On a sub-dimensional level, reality becomes a projection of itself ad infinitum.

Being all possible.

The existence of alternate realities has already been explored through the proper use of intelligence in the physical, mental and spirit body. Out of the body experience.

So, the question is not whether to believe or not in probability, but to be aware that being intelligent reality an infinite number, all probability IS a reality.

Other laws have been explored as well, as to how the introduction of the illusory timeline is perceived, given the various densities in the spiraling of step dimensions, in which a certain event will be perceived first from higher to lower frequency.

So, while this configuration or event occurs simultaneously, being the universal sinapse a frequency gradient, events are "perceived" sequentially, rather than simultaneously.

Similar as to how when the electromagnetic frequency of human mind is stimulated, time is perceived differently.

In other words, everything you can think of, is already a reality.

[Once In A Blue Moon 895]

I tend to find them quite vexing, and often counterproductive to improving general knowledge - you get so much nonsense thrown around that it undermines efforts to improve matters. Trying to argue that the attacks on Pearl Harbour or the World Trade Centre occurred because of inside actions or some great conspiracy gets in the way of learning from the failures involved. The signs were there, but they were missed by those that needed to see them - that is what needs to be looked at, not theorising that the US would risk losing the bulk of its Pacific fleet to start a war it would then be unable to win, or inflict a massive blow to its national prestige to justify the hunt for a man who had to that point been a fairly minor terrorist unknown to the general public.

The 'real conspiracies' that Western governments have been involved in, such as the Anglo-French-Israeli action in Suez or the 1953 Iranian coup, gave a clear gain from their success (or would have in the case of Suez) and in any event were not especially secret - just secret enough for long enough.

If aliens made stuff from ancient civilizations on earth. Is it possible they created the human race?

Possible but highly unlikely, considering how well our genome matches up with other Earth species. We even have 98.8% of our genome in common with chimpanzees. It would also be difficult for them to have extracted he DNA from a live chimp and mutated it into something like us though considering they'd have to make approximately 35 MILLION changes. Doesn't help the theory that there hasn't been a very long time for the aliens to have evolved into a sophisticated enough species to have been space-faring for that long. 13.5 billion years is a surprisingly short time to create an advanced civilization capable of propulsion that's probably at least several times the speed of light.

 

[Lyrin 28]

But considering this theory about the missing link. I am just saying its plausable.

Edit: Also this is a video about a mayan contraption, looks very highly advanced.

No, I especially dislike the theorists who come up with them. They prove what could happen and how it could happen, yet do not prove that it did happen.

[Dreambiscuit 10,093]

I don't mind conspiracy theories because it's interesting to think outside the box and consider everything. But unfortunately many of them go so far off the rails that it takes all credibility away from the ones that have merit. I mean, not everything is a conspiracy as many theorists would have us believe. I don't close my mind but I don't swallow just anything either.

To be fair, in the situations where there is conclusive proof then it is no longer a conspiracy theory, it is just a conspiracy.

[Yoshi89 5,293]

I look at it this way. If the MSM told the truth 100% of the time, there wouldn't be any conspiracy theorists. But alas, they don't.

The "illuminati" triangle things isnt a conspiracy its basically a meme at this point. Its nonsesne, but its basically a meme.
