"Conspiracy theories are a conspiracy" That what "they" want you to think  | |||
"Anyone got any good ones Here’s one for you the covid vaccines will have a microchip inside that the government will use to track you " They won't need to. They will just make your life impossible if you don't take the vaccine. That said i think so many people will refuse it won't work. Usually though people who really believe in conspiracies do so because it is a way of absolving themselves of responsibility for the shit situation their lives are in. | |||
| |||
"Anyone got any good ones Here’s one for you the covid vaccines will have a microchip inside that the government will use to track you " (but, just in case that hadn't disappeared down the Covid rabbit hole, it's worth noting that microchips are no way near small enough yet (and likely never will be since other technologies would be better suited to this usage) to be injected in solution... I mean, really. Who dreams up this shit without having at least a basic understanding of the scientific and technological restrictions on it? Chumps. | |||
"The Philadelphia experiment is a good one." Good in that it "makes for a mildly distracting film" but not good in "plausibly possible in the real world" sense - yes, I agree. | |||

"Conspiracy theories has always been a fascinating human social issue for me. How does one continue to believe in things with such lack of evidence is baffling to me lol" And they think they’re the enlightened ones, that somehow a bloke who still lives at home in his mums basement has more inside information than experts, scientists in their chosen fields. The way they call people who follow the advise of experts ‘sheeple’, it’s funny how they all say the same thing, calling everyone else sheeple, I just think it’s a form of trolling, because there’s nothing you can do or say that will convince them they are wrong. | |||

I mean, really. Who dreams up this shit without having at least a basic understanding of the scientific and technological restrictions on it? Chumps." Yeah i can vouch for this. I work at the bleeding edge of tracking technology and thus far you can get a RFID chip about half the size of a grain of rice. And that still wouldn't suffice for tracking people unless the government are going to install ALien F800's with masts literally everywhere. | |||
| |||
"The parallel universe Beatles album is a good one. Not so much conspiracy as just interesting." Is that where you play the record backwards to get demons speaking? Or am I off the mark here? | |||
 | |||
"People are scared of a microchip and still using a smartphone and posting on Facebook "Exactly a mobile is a great IoT device. And you can triangulate a persons location within around 50 yards using the mobile phone masts. | |||

" They all say "I think outside the box" yet they are the ones quoting from "a box" Apparently I live in a low covid area because the head of UK huawei operations lives in my area....hilarious | |||
"Anyone got any good ones Here’s one for you the covid vaccines will have a microchip inside that the government will use to track you " Google already does | |||
" Apparently I live in a low covid area because the head of UK huawei operations lives in my area....hilarious " It's unreal there are people who believe this. Nutters who go around burning 5G masts | |||
"Conspiracy theories are a conspiracy" That's what I've been telling people that are believe in a conspiracy. Certain governments have been going against scientific advice on a number of topics recently. This is because of they followed the advice, it would damage them financially (i.e. acting on global warming would damage the American fossil fuel industry). So to protect their finances, they are attempting to undermine trust and belief in science by pushing conspiracy theories that contradict science but for many seem plausible. Those who believe the theory, must then believe the science is wrong. If the science is wrong on that topic, it could be on others, making it easier for the governments to then deny / ignore the science. So by following a conspiracy theory, you would be blindly falling for the governments plot and helping them enforce their hidden agenda. | |||
"Anyone got any good ones Here’s one for you the covid vaccines will have a microchip inside that the government will use to track you " Go to Science Based Medicine and look under the SARS-COV-2 tag, you'll find way whackier than that | |||
"Conspiracy theories has always been a fascinating human social issue for me. How does one continue to believe in things with such lack of evidence is baffling to me lol" Most of what you believe you read in a book or someone else read in a book and told you, you just chose to believe it. Most people wouldn’t know where to start when it comes to testing the validity of a piece of evidence, for example gravity, atoms, bacteria. | |||

Covid obviously spreads easiest in areas of high population. 5G masts are obviously first set up in areas of high population. Same areas for different reasons. Correlation not causation. That's why Sweden without 5G still has a Covid issue. I can't understand why these people can't grasp this simple fact!  | |||
"The Philadelphia experiment is a good one." A bit cheesy though | |||
| |||
"People are scared of a microchip and still using a smartphone and posting on Facebook "It's the same people that are scared that the Amazon Echo is spying on them as it sits in their room listening to voice commands. Yet they carry a mobile phone, with microphone, camera, GPS, etc on them all the time. Surely if anything were to spy on them it would be that, not a device stuck in the kitchen. | |||
"What gets me is the 'New World Order' conspiracy. It's been going on for decades, so why hasn't it happened yet? "They're incompetent, see. So incompetent that dudes in mum's basement can see it but so diabolical that the world's experts can't get it together | |||

Exactly right.
They probs use CB scanners as well | |||
"Covid 19 was a virus created by a government to react only against certain race, but it backfired and mutated to attack all types of human variations " One prominent nut thinks that Bill Gates, the elite, and Martians have teamed up to take over the world via Covid-19. ... I guess it's more interesting than shit happens and we reacted badly? | |||
"You really think they need to inject a microchip in you to know exactly what you're doing and where you are at any time? They already know." And this. Last I checked (has been a long time) the UK has the highest level of CCTV coverage in the world, and that's even without mobile phones telling the authorities whatever they need to know or social media meaning a lot of us broadcast it. Teach the controversy it's a conspiracy! ... Oh wait  | |||

"The one everyone talks about.The moon not being real." The idea that anyone could fake the moon landing with the technology that existed back then is... umm. Adorable. | |||

"The one everyone talks about.The moon not being real. The idea that anyone could fake the moon landing with the technology that existed back then is... umm. Adorable." How do you know that they didn't fake the moon though. | |||
"The one everyone talks about.The moon not being real. The idea that anyone could fake the moon landing with the technology that existed back then is... umm. Adorable. How do you know that they didn't fake the moon though." The moon itself? ... umm. Independent validation of sightings for millenia, scientific measurements of all kinds, tides, all sorts of other shit I'm not aware of... | |||
"Sydney University is harvesting profiles to set up porn bots that help rig elections. Or erections. Or some bullshit like that. A" I find this one particularly hilarious. | |||

I've seen a hologram of Michael Jackson on stage doing the moon walk.So how do you know that the moon is real it could be a hologram. | |||

"Sydney University is harvesting profiles to set up porn bots that help rig elections. Or erections. Or some bullshit like that. A I find this one particularly hilarious." Pretty sure Trump is using it as a new legal argument for a court case as we speak. A *allegedly | |||

Because ancient cultures talked about the moon long before the technology to create holograms existed, and the moon changes gravity and tidal patterns, even assuming that astronauts are liars for the sake of argument | |||

It's about a guy called James Richards He wrote of having travelled to a parallel universe, in which the Beatles had never broken up, and took back with them a cassette tape containing one of their alleged albums from the timeline. The album's called every day Chemistry and can be heard on youtube | |||

Think of it this way.If they want us to think Louis Armstrong and Buzz lightyear really went to the moon and the moon isnt really real then all they needed to do was film them on the hologram to make us think the moon is real. | |||
"The Philadelphia experiment is a good one. Good in that it "makes for a mildly distracting film" but not good in "plausibly possible in the real world" sense - yes, I agree. Anything is possible.

This must prove that George Orwell was a time travelling architect who roved through history leaving plans for people to follow. How much more evidence do you need that the Eiffel tower was actually inspired by the Blackpool tower? (Next up, proof that Noah's Ark was based on Animal Farm ) | |||

Not really conspiracy theories some of these, more just theories like multiverses or the universal expansion & contraction theory (widely debunked now).

"Conspiracy theories has always been a fascinating human social issue for me. How does one continue to believe in things with such lack of evidence is baffling to me lol And they think they’re the enlightened ones, that somehow a bloke who still lives at home in his mums basement has more inside information than experts, scientists in their chosen fields. The way they call people who follow the advise of experts ‘sheeple’, it’s funny how they all say the same thing, calling everyone else sheeple, I just think it’s a form of trolling, because there’s nothing you can do or say that will convince them they are wrong. " Totally agree with this100% I’m really getting fed up of some of these ridiculous outlandish claims.

" This is one of the definitive issues with conspiracy theorists. 1. The lack of evidence is in itself evidence of a cover up! 2. Any contrary evidence is a set up or fabrication 3. The maths and or the motives behind the theory are shakey (and thats at the very very best lol) To give an example; the moon landings being fake. Assuming the motives are there.. If you calculate the amount of man power it would take to just keep this a secret? I think the estimated number was about 500k people. Now imagine getting that many, presumably smart and sensible people, to work in unity for one, not step out of line for two and after years and years of the event, not to come forward! The 'vaccine' so to speak of a conspiracy theory is always maths | |||

Most people wouldn’t know where to start when it comes to testing the validity of a piece of evidence, for example gravity, atoms, bacteria. " This is true in practice but not in principle. For example; Lets say i have done 0 experiments of all of the knowledge i have accumulated and believe to be true. For all or some of this information to be false or fabricated, firstly there would have to be motive behind this fabrication, secondly there would have to be a huge amount of participation around the globe! Because no doubt, the moon landings being fake or the earth being flat requires a global effort to be kept a secret! Even the small ones or ridiculous ones, for example aliens and the Egyptians, mayans etc Whats the motive in keeping this secret and how many million people are involved lol It never, ever adds up! | |||

I can make life real simple for them ! Off license then my Appartment Job done ! ( during lockdown) I ain’t usually that boring ! Anyway That is just that a conspiracy theory!

"Anyone got any good ones Here’s one for you the covid vaccines will have a microchip inside that the government will use to track you They won't need to. They will just make your life impossible if you don't take the vaccine. That said i think so many people will refuse it won't work. Usually though people who really believe in conspiracies do so because it is a way of absolving themselves of responsibility for the shit situation their lives are in." | |||
"Conspiracy theories has always been a fascinating human social issue for me. How does one continue to believe in things with such lack of evidence is baffling to me lol Most of what you believe you read in a book or someone else read in a book and told you, you just chose to believe it. Most people wouldn’t know where to start when it comes to testing the validity of a piece of evidence, for example gravity, atoms, bacteria. This is true in practice but not in principle. For example; Lets say i have done 0 experiments of all of the knowledge i have accumulated and believe to be true. For all or some of this information to be false or fabricated, firstly there would have to be motive behind this fabrication, secondly there would have to be a huge amount of participation around the globe! Because no doubt, the moon landings being fake or the earth being flat requires a global effort to be kept a secret! Even the small ones or ridiculous ones, for example aliens and the Egyptians, mayans etc Whats the motive in keeping this secret and how many million people are involved lol It never, ever adds up! Well the pentagon came out and said publicly they have a craft not from this world or basically they have no clue wat it is ! And No not a conspiracy this is fact " Exactly, this is beyond the discussion if its a fact lol Mind you, if there was alien tech and the US kept it tho themselves for all these years the world would hammer them.

"Conspiracy theories has always been a fascinating human social issue for me. How does one continue to believe in things with such lack of evidence is baffling to me lol And they think they’re the enlightened ones, that somehow a bloke who still lives at home in his mums basement has more inside information than experts, scientists in their chosen fields. The way they call people who follow the advise of experts ‘sheeple’, it’s funny how they all say the same thing, calling everyone else sheeple, I just think it’s a form of trolling, because there’s nothing you can do or say that will convince them they are wrong. This is one of the definitive issues with conspiracy theorists. 1. The lack of evidence is in itself evidence of a cover up! 2. Any contrary evidence is a set up or fabrication 3. The maths and or the motives behind the theory are shakey (and thats at the very very best lol) To give an example; the moon landings being fake. Assuming the motives are there.. If you calculate the amount of man power it would take to just keep this a secret? I think the estimated number was about 500k people. Now imagine getting that many, presumably smart and sensible people, to work in unity for one, not step out of line for two and after years and years of the event, not to come forward! The 'vaccine' so to speak of a conspiracy theory is always maths "Occam's razor helps for those of us who are a bit allergic to maths | |||
"There are now nano-chips that are are able to be inhaled and then wander through your blood stream from the lungs to your brain. Once 5g is deployed the government is able to control your mind with these chips. Because the chips needs to be inhaled first, special spreader sprays are installed in all bus and trains, also the government is forcing the landlords to install them in supermarkets and shopping centers. Wearing a face mask that covers mouth and nose will prevent the inhalation "Elon musk did it in a pig ? Hope I’m right here ? Well something similar right ? | |||

It is very possible in todays society for a group of brilliant and lucky scientists to head a project so far that it would be considered almost alien.

Anyone interested in life outside of earth should watch YouTube videos and understand 'THE DRAKE EQUATION' Prof. Brian cox having my favourite interpretation of it. It's very easy and short to explain and understand. Videos range from 10mins to 2 hours depending on how detailed you want to indulge in the subject. My short answer to life outside of earth, even human like life, is mathematically 100% possible, so therefore i believe there is such beings. | |||

"Some people prefer a conspiracy theory to no theory at all. Is true
But why make something up? It just causes confusion and in some cases panic!"I read a pamphlet on the psychology of conspiracy theories. I think it might have been from UQ (University of Sydney's younger northern cousin ). Basically people are afraid and don't feel in control, so they need to feel in control by knowing something secret and exclusive. It makes them feel safe - even if it's illogical, easily disproven, and terrifying. It's less scary than "random bad shit happens". They know and therefore they have power. Apparently.
I should dig it up again.
