List conspiracy theories here.

I read Libra about 6 years ago and am willing to accept it as 95% truth ;)

Two more bankers commit suicide

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/25/world/europe/thierry-leyne-dies-in-israel.html

PARIS — Thierry Leyne, a French-Israeli banker and partner of Dominique Strauss-Kahn, the disgraced former chief of the International Monetary Fund, was found dead on Thursday after apparently taking his own life in Tel Aviv.

Mr. Leyne, 48, jumped off the 23rd floor of one of the Yoo towers, a prestigious residential complex, according to Israeli officials.

The two men met several years ago and, in October 2013, founded Leyne Strauss-Kahn & Partners in an effort to capitalize on the former fund chief’s experience and expertise. The company offers investment banking advice and services.

After training as a civil engineer, Mr. Leyne made a career in private banking, management and investment. In 1994, he founded Assya Capital, a trading company that was listed on the Euronext Free Market in 2001.

Mr. Strauss-Kahn became an investment banker after his career was buffeted by a series of sex scandals. He has helped the government of South Sudan set up a bank, and he advised the Serbian government on economic issues. He also sits on the board of two big Russian financial institutions.

(Reuters) - A senior Deutsche Bank regulatory lawyer has been found dead in New York after committing suicide, New York City officials said on Saturday.

Calogero Gambino, 41, was found on the morning of Oct. 20 at his home in the New York borough of Brooklyn and pronounced dead on the scene, according to New York City police.

Gambino was an associate general counsel and a managing director who worked for the German bank for 11 years, according to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported his death.

He had been closely involved in negotiating legal issues for Deutsche Bank such as a probe by regulators of banks over allegations they manipulated the Libor benchmark interest rate as well as currency markets.

Hey, we got Libor again.

Police are investigating the death of a Citigroup manager who was found in his Manhattan apartment bathtub with this throat cut.

Police say 42-year-old Shawn Miller was discovered Tuesday afternoon by his doorman at his Greenwich Village apartment after a friend asked to check on him. He was found with a slash wound on his neck in his bathtub.

Authorities say there was no sign of forced entry and no weapon found. The medical examiner's office will determine the cause of death.

Miller was managing director of the environment and social risk management team at Citigroup, Inc

Wealthy banker impaled on spikes following 60ft fall from luxury London penthouse

A man has died in an horrific accident, falling 60 feet from the window of a Marylebone flat after being impaled on iron railings.

He was pronounced dead at the scene and police are not treating the death as suspicious.

Neighbours believe the man, who was in his 50s, worked in banking or the financial services and was from the UK.

Firefighters cut through the 5ft railings with an angle grinder before the body could be moved, according to the Evening Standard

So what is the supposed conspiracy behind these deaths? What 's supposed to connect these bankers to each other besides the fact that they're bankers?

Having been a big elite firm corporate lawyer, these are almost certainly suicides. Fi there is any kind of conspiracy, it is the banks awkwardly trying to hide that they are suicides.

It's possible, of course, that it's not a simple case of one or the other; some could be just suicides, while others could have been 'suicided' for knowing too much about some financial crime or other. Seems plausible to me if certain people didn't want to go to jail, and would be standard in organised crime.

I guess that's possible in some individual cases, but the article Elvis linked to lists 36 bankers, who worked for different banks and died in different countries and continents, as if there's some connection between all of them, without bothering to make any suggestions what connection might be. Obviously you could make a similar list with people in any stressful profession, so this particular conspiracy theory seems even vaguer than they usually tend to be,

There are lots of conspiracy theory sites that attempt to find connections between different people on the list of dead bankers, e.g. companies they worked for in the past that happen to be under investigation over the LIBOR thing etc. etc. Others will say there's no smoke without fire and the deaths tie in with their belief that the banking system as a whole is fraudulent and the 'elite' or 'elites' want to keep it going and for the masses not to find out what's been going on, because that might threaten the system etc. That would be the bigger, admittedly very vague theory.

Adding fuel to that fire is the sense among the conspiracy community that a second and greater version of the 2008 Depression is headed our way.

I'm reminded of the lists of strange deaths JFK assassination researchers compile, tying in enough murders, car crashes, and heart attacks to fill a Google spreadsheet. Without any new evidence or research, about all you can do is fume that They got away with it.

just stumbled across the 'jump rooms to mars' theory, which is a new one on me but seems legit:

In El Segundo, California, in a CIA laboratory, there is an elevator that transports a human being onto Mars, or any other planet with a solid ground. Mars is well known because it as been tested many, many times for the test runs. This technology came about from reverse engineering of a crashed spaceship which was sent from Alpha Centauri, the constellation made famous from the movie Avatar, although it was well known in the scientific and conspiracy theorist community; but it was hardly news in the real world. The scientist discovered that through the consciousness of a human or alien mind, the ship sets a destination you desire, and opens up a worm hole in front of the ship which transports you to the destination of your liking. This sounds like ‘Star Wars’ or ‘Star Gate’ type hogwash, but two of the top CIA officials have come out to talk about this ‘Jump Room’. Andrew D. Basiago has been the biggest and the most resourceful evidence of this Jump Room, which was created from reverse engineering. You have to ask yourself, why were all these probes like Beagle 1, 2, and 3 were sent to mars, to see the how it looks like? No, NASA has seen enough of Mars, much before they announced it with their phony mission of Beagle. The main function for sending Beagle to Mars was to set up the elevator of jump room, which will act as the receiving end catcher for any object or human to be transported there. Right now, you must have another Jump Room available at the other end in order for you to go from place to place. The first time this was used was back in 1996, when they landed the first robotic rover on mars which they claimed was just a camera on wheel taking pictures and samples on mars. This entire project was financed by German Nazis, since the end of WW II Era. Germans were very, very intelligent and they were the most advanced in science and mathematics compare to any other country including United States. It took over 40 years to solve the riddles and mysteries of the spaceship which also contained the technology of Jump Room.

http://exopolitics.blogs.com/exopolitics/2011/11/mars-visitors-basiago-and-stillings-confirm-barack-obama-traveled-to-mars-1.html

Two former participants in the CIA’s Mars visitation program of the early 1980’s have confirmed that U.S. President Barack H. Obama was enrolled in their Mars training class in 1980 and was among the young Americans from the program who they later encountered on the Martian surface after reaching Mars via “jump room.”

wow, that story is worth reading in full, not least for the revelation that 97,000 people have been to mars and that 'one of their principal concerns on Mars would be to avoid being devoured by one of the predator species on the Martian surface, some of which they would be able to evade, and some of which were impossible to evade if encountered'.

Thought all this was common knowledge.

From the moment John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas on November 22, 1963, conspiracy theorists and skeptics have dissected the events of that fateful day. Now, 3D modeling has resolved a longstanding debate about an incriminating photo showing Kennedy’s assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, with a rifle in his backyard. According to these new results, the photo is authentic

Look for the truth dont believe all the hype.... I know a lot of friends who are Muslim and would happily put my life in there hands.... ISIS is government funded terrorism nothing to do with religion or beliefs'....

followed by link to 1990 video of man talking about the Israeli Secret Intelligence Service.

JUst had the old walmart premises are now Fema camps theory said to me apparently seriously in the wake of people being sent to old walmart spaces as a result of hurricane Harvey.
Don't think i was familiar with the old theory before that.

That's not a conspiracy theory, that's good government. Would the taxpayers prefer the camps be built from scratch, on lands seized through eminent domain?

this one seems to have peaked already but i've been thinking a lot about the mandela effect, particularly because this berenstain bears thing freaked me out a bit

it's a fun rabbithole but idk if there's anything more to it than "difficult to spell last name spelled differently than you think"

Many people think the Queen song 'We Are the Champions' ends with the phrase, "We are the champions..... of the world." However, it may shock you to know that there is no 'of the world' at the end.

WHAT THE FUCK

oh it's not at the end it's in the middle, fuck you odysseyonline.com https://www.theodysseyonline.com/examples-mandela-effect-that-will-ruin-your-life

It ends with "of the world" here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPKlrRwJB8A

i remember noting the odd bears' spelling as a child. qed.

haha yeah that "...of the world" thing did legitimately freak me out for a while until I actually listened to the song. c'mon

like half that list is just "I bet you thought this word was spelled like THIS, but actually..."

"life was like a box of chocolates"?

i have a friend who's like a mandela effect truther and he swears it all has something to do with quantum computing and CERN

O_o

xp does he also believe CERN is responsible for things like trump's election, cubs winning world series, pats comeback in superbowl

From a Wall Street Journal article about the neo-Nazi rally in Poland last weekend: 'The Radical Camp’s followers argue, on their social-media accounts and in their literature, that the influx of Syrian refugees into Europe is part of a conspiracy driven by Jewish financiers, who are working with Communists in the European Union to bring Muslims into Europe, and with them, Shariah law and homosexuality.'

many people think chartreuse is close to maroon, and i did too when younger. i don't think this means we live in the matrix but it's fascinating to ponder how this misconception was propagated.

Like many people I got a little obsessed with the Mandela effect for a time, it's fascinating because of how stupid it is, in a way that feels very current somehow. I know a lot of conspiracy theories are dumb but here the stupid definitely outweighs the crazy, all these Reddit morons spinning wild theories about the ~strange phenomenon~ of... misremembering something

& like basically every single example is just a commonly misquoted line from a film

A cosmic reality-bending phenomenon that only ever affects garbage ephemera, it's perfect bathos

mandela effect is not current, it's evergreen because people really hate admitting they're wrong about something

mandela-effect youtubes abt jfk are like the kideodrome of csi

god these mandela effect things are so DUMB

ppl are morons, we are doomed

omg did u know chartreuse is not purple?
um yeah i did bcz there’s a terrible tasting liquor named after it that i drank in college and it’s fuckin GREEN the same color as allll of my puke that night

fuck off u stupid kids jfc

Seriously if it was ever Chic-fil-a everyone would have pronounced it sheek-fil-Ayy
