conspiracy theory

My name's Jeff. I used to post in the Loose Change forums (as jdhammer as well) back when they were at a different site (different host?). And yes, I <sigh> was a truther at one point. My story is all too familiar to you guys I'm sure. I saw Loose Change, recognized a lot of it as BS but somehow...

It’s always amazed me just how easy it is to spread conspiracy theories and have people believe them so easily. Some of this range from the attack on the twin towers was a controlled explosion organized by the Jews, the pentagon attack was actually a missile, and there never was a moon landing...

Its amazing. The Iranians take some British sailors hostage in Iraqi waters, and the 9-11 truthers call it a false flag. Do they think the Israelis captured them and put them in Iranian custody? If the sailors are in Iranian custody..then it is not a false flag. Simple as that. Oy.

Coca Cola has been trying to sell peace since it was invented. I'm not really sure this needs to be a secret or hidden in elaborate schemes. Unless they only want us to think they are pushing for peace.

Just so its not all 9/11 and stuff, I thought I'd make an interesting thread. You post the letter in the alphabet that follows the one that the previous person posted. Your post must be about conspiracy theories (IE J - JFK) IE I'll be starting with A, next person posts something about B etc...

Wii Conspiracy Figured it would be nice to have a thread in here that didn't have... -Mass murder -Assinations -Big Oil -Total nutjob posters. Just some innocent Nintendo Sales. So...is this conspiricy true????

I'm sorry I can't post links (new user bleh), but this book is ****ing hilarious. I wish right wing conspiracy theorists would publish more books like this. Highly recommended.

No one considers the Tuskegee Experiment, Lee Harvey Oswald shooting the president, or Watergate to be "Conspiracy Theories"...because they're supported. So where is the "line-drawn" between actual history, plots and plans and "conspiracy theories?" (I know my own answer, but I'm curious what...

I was just watching a documentary about the Freemasons on National Geography. I simply dont know enough about the organisation etc to judge the value of the information, however one section stood out They were discussing the existence of an inner and outer circle of Mason power. The inner...

http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=89396&st=15 I just can't stop messing with this guy. He's your typical blowhard that spouts stuff he can't explain (Bush Doctrine, PNAC). I've been chasing him all over that site and he just can't admit defeat, and he can't NOT get...

Is there a ready-made refutation of this already out there somewhere? Conspiracy of Science - Earth is in fact growing-AMAZING If not, let the festivities begin!

"You can believe what they told you, or you can believe your own eyes: thevideo.google.com "I was asleep in my cabin when the crash came," said Mrs. Bucknell, beginning her account of the disaster. "I cannot explain just what the noise was like, except that it was horrible and sounded like a...

This is a thread about the use of popular culture by conspiracists and vice versa. It came to mind because of some discussions I've had with conspiracists in which they have referred to movie, television episode or novel plots as though they were real. I will start with a short list and ask...

I was just reading in this mornings newspaper that a number of Japanese MP's have banded together to put right the hoax that is the rape of Nanjing! apparently all those tens of thousands of people werent murdered by rampaging Japanese soldiers and that the independent western witnesses that...

Seems our Trent has gone a bit (albeit fictional) conspiracy-nuts with his new apocalyptic concept album "Year Zero". It's a bit of an alternate reality game as promo for the album, and so harmless. But I'm seeing them tomorrow night, and am now a bit worried in case he's a closet CTist, and...

I am not positive I have not posted this before, but it occured to me again the other day while exposing a friend to Penn and Teller, season 3. Isn't there some striking similarities between conspiracy theories and religons? I am convinced they spawn from the same primordial drive to try to...

Dust off your Oklahoma City Bombing conspiracy files. Here's a story right out of Alex Jones's dreams: http://www.sltrib.com/news/ci_5271117 I don't think Terry Nichols would lie about a thing like this. Do you?

I know it sounds unbelievable, but there are actually people who believe that the Zionists not only killed JFK...but even Lincoln 1865. The Zionists also had the Czar and his family killed. The Zionists blew up the Lusitania. The Zionists instigated the pogroms in Russia to flood the USA with...

There is a pretty good german summary about the most popular conspiracy theories: http://www.verschwoerungen.info/wiki/Hauptseite ausgewählte Verschwörungen / Verschwörungstheorien 11. September, AIDS, Bermudadreieck, Bielefeld, Bilderberger, Bücherverschwörung, Cannabis, CIA...

Teacher promoting conspiracies investigated (New Zealand Herald - will only be available for free for a week from today.) I wasn't aware of how bad the nuttiness had got here in NZ, if a teacher has been sucked in by it. The arguments of the CTers are normally simlpy not reported in the...

I was reading some material on astronomy and I had a really confusing and somewhat disturbing thought. Do all of the people that believe the moon landing was a hoax claim all other astronomical knowledge is false and that ALL astronomers throughout the world are in on the moon landing hoax or do...

I want to introduce a new word into the English language. Often when I am watching TV or reading a book on conspiracies, I will see new titles being made-up to add credibility to an "expert" in a particular field. "UFOlogist," "Scholar for Truth," and "Spiritual Teacher" are examples of this...

Hello All, A friend recently sent me this link on the subject of denial, scepticism, free speech and scientific orthodoxy which seems directly relevant to the mindset of many twoofers. It provoked a wordy response from me which I have included below the link. Perhaps the JREF ninjas would like...

I just read a fascinating article about "Mind Control" conspiracy theorists in the Washington Post. It's a really interesting insight into the mental state of conspiracists, but what really struck a chord with me was the uniquely American slant on what is essentially schizophrenia. I knew a...

Daniel Obachike is a London bombing victim at Tavistock Square bus. He has started making some serious CT claims surrounding the bombings and is also writing a book titled The 4th Bomb. His previous claim discusses the bus being diverted to Tavistock Square by two unmarked cars, which left the...

This is a new one to me. Australians would be pretty familiar with this case, but I had never heard any suggestion that Martin Bryant was framed or that there was any sort of cover-up. Now of course someone is claiming that it was all part of some government evil plot to convict an...

Every study I have seen on who helped Lee Harvey Oswald kill JFK mentions a certain 'Grassy Knoll' - why did no one ever question this Mr. Knoll? Perhaps he could shed some light on the matter.

Its my birthday and all I got from the NWO is a lousy Email! No fruit basket or cake! Geez with all the trillions they stole from the Pentagon figure can spring for something! Wonder what I can get from the Loose changers.....!
