Which of these conspiracy theories is most plausible?

fuck, I'm obsessed with lizard people now, because of this thread. Did you know Kris Kristofferson is supposed to be one??

The only man I've known to believe AIDS is manmade was a Mennonite!

how do the Mennonites and the Mormons roll?

i bet someone here knows.. i am looking for the Wikipedia article about a man who hi-jacked a plane, got the money and then took off and jumped. he disappeared forever.

thanks! :)

On February 10, 1980, Brian Ingram, then eight years old, was with his family on a picnic when he found $5,880 in decaying bills (a total of 294 $20 bills),

(...)

it was proven that the money found by Ingram was part of the ransom given to Cooper(...)

Ingram was eventually allowed to keep $2,860 of this money. On June 13, 2008, in accordance with Ingram's wishes, the Heritage Auction Galleries' Americana Memorabilia Grand Format Auction in Dallas, Texas sold fifteen of the bills to various buyers for a total of more than $37,000.[38]

HAARP project scientist busted for fraud - pleas out with the Feds http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2013/05/haarp-fraud/

DoD shuts down HAARP
http://www.ktoo.org/2014/04/14/haarp-research-facility-shut/

Shutting it down is obviously the perfect cover.

I feel like HAARP has taken the place of scientific Climate Change theories. Like for many libertarian types, they can just point to crazy weather and say it proves HAARP did it rather than Al Gore.

the other night I had someone telling me that the Rockefellers engineered the feminist movement to take people's attention away from the ~real~ issues.

Because the anniversary is in the news I spent some time going down the rabbit hole of Boston Marathon Bombing conspiracy weirdos. Which led to the amusing spectacle of infowars/alex jones types arguing **with each other** over whether Jeff Bauman and other victims were actors or not. Some came down firmly on the side of these people OBVIOUSLY being actors, others were of the opinion that this was so obviously a false flag operation by the US intelligence community that introducing the idea of "crisis actors" was unnecessary.

It's scary to think that probably 10% of the people around you at any given time are absolutely shithouse-rat crazy.

There is a conspiracy (of course) that the recent lost Malaysian airplane was actually piloted by remote and steered off course to a remote location, to later be used in a FF. Because that is so much easier than just using a random plane no-one has ever heard of.

Jesus, just the comments in that link ET posted.

9/11 too low imo

"I had a feeling [the shooter, Larry Steve McQuilliams] was a white man, and you can be sure the hostile aliens who really control the country are going to use this against US," wrote "Volodyamyr."

via Ned, probably somewhere else on ILE

Others, like “FatherOdin,” agreed, claiming that “once the media picks up this story we will once again hear nonstop about how all Whites are racist, anti-government, violent threats to America.”

...

“The Federal Government is anti-white! The Federal Government is a lawless out of control violent mob! The only solution to the Federal Government is secession!”

isn't advocating secession a violent anti-government threat to America I am confused

So now that Mercedes is apparently vulnerable to the same types of hacking as GM, Jeep, etc. I'd love to see a proof-of-concept hack on the C250 that Michael Hastings was driving.

You mean like, could it be hacked back then? Not following

The big talks at both Black Hat and Defcon hacking conferences were all about car hacking remotely:
http://www.wired.com/2015/07/hackers-remotely-kill-jeep-highway/
http://www.eweek.com/security/slideshows/black-hat-defcon-put-car-hacking-web-privacy-on-center-stage.html
http://www.technologyreview.com/news/540441/carmakers-accelerate-security-efforts-after-hacking-stunts/
http://www.extremetech.com/extreme/212251-todays-car-hacks-bmw-chrysler-mercedes-benz-on-ios
http://www.zdnet.com/article/how-to-hack-a-corvette-with-a-text-message/

The upshot is that these vulnerabilities are more common and far easier to exploit than what was previously thought. Would love to know if a 2013 Mercedes C250 (what Hastings was driving) can be hacked and taken over similar to what the conspiracy theory dictates - lock the door, floor the gas, and disable the brakes.

None of which proves anything of course. There are far easier ways to knock people off the playing field than a remote-controlled car hack, but I've always thought that the circumstances around it were interesting.

Thanks for the comprehensive reply, Elvis

Geocentric theory is coming back fwiw.

Might as well link this here, too. Why have a cruise for fans of one conspiracy theory when you could do them all?

Note the guest list.

Is it safe for them all to be on the same boat? Bit of an easy target for the illuminati / lizard people / alien overlords / big pharma / Jews who run the government.

Aha! Andy Wakefield! So good to see you again

Discussion about this on the Jenny McCarthy vaccination thread

chem-trails is out of the running, looks like. sad!

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/16/science/scientists-just-say-no-to-chemtrails-conspiracy-theory.html

well of course the scientists would say that

I only read about this deal for the first time last night: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_Norwegian_spiral_anomaly

hard to find a non-"enhanced" image of what ppl said they saw: there's a youtube clip from (i think) CNN which is p poor quality but does have a wtf omg element once they zoom the camera in enough (= smoky but very orderly rotating spiral in the distant sky)… explanations = russians (rocket misfire), HAARP (chemtrails machinery malfunction), aliens (portal left open by mistake), more and worse if you google far enough

(it was retweeted last night by the ordinarily super-factual and gorgeous @StormHour, i think bcz a follower noticed SH had just tweeted a pic of s storm from the same part of tromsø, and commented with a link)

HAARP's new owner holds open house to prove facility 'is not capable of mind control'
http://www.adn.com/alaska-news/science/2016/08/24/haarps-new-owner-holds-open-house-to-prove-facility-is-not-capable-of-mind-control/

The University of Alaska Fairbanks now owns and operates the High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program and invites the public to an open house Saturday. This is interested visitors' chance to learn about the scientific mission and research at the Gakona facility, which was transferred last year from the U.S. Air Force to UAF.

UAF officials are hoping for a high turnout.

"We hope that people will be able to see the actual science of it," said Sue Mitchell, spokesperson for UAF's Geophysical Institute, which operates the facility. "We hope to show people that it is not capable of mind control and not capable of weather control and all the other things it's been accused of."

'come to our mind control facility to allow us to implant in your mind the idea that we're not capable of mind control'

they must think we're fuckin idiots, man *adjusts tinfoil hat*

scientist doesn't understand how conspiracy theorists think

'Oh, so you hid all the evidence and then invited people?'

lately i've been trying to delve more into conspiracy theories from outside the english-as-a-first-language world. some of them are pretty good. there's the vietnamese conspiracy theory that ho chi minh died and was replaced by a chinese sleeper agent. and of course the great russian conspiracy theory that historians just made up a thousand years of history.

the jfk conspiracy theory is the one that everyone everwhere seems to believe and it's one of the most tedious and boring ones i can imagine. because the basis of it is stupid old "great man" theory, the belief that somebody as important as the president couldn't be killed by a lone nut.

i spent some time recently looking at the david icke forums and discovered they seem firmly pro-brexit, presumably because it's striking a blow against the reptilian-controlled new world order

Little do they realize the bitter irony that cutting off their noses to spite their faces makes them indistinguishable from their reptilian overlords.

I missed the David Kelly stuff, whats the consensus on what happened there?

This Rashid Buttar cat keeps popping up on youtube with a covid conspiracy theory. But its NOT the 5G one, in his one its something to do with Bill Gates wanting to force vaccines onto everyone, something about depopulation, and something else about RFD chips. I guess its an extension of the anti-vaccine movement?
