Conspiracy theorists

Never known as many conspiracy theorists around social media etc as there currently are.
Friends and even a family member of mine are perpetually posting about how covid, banks, television news, vaccines, royalty etc are all forms of government control over the population.

Illuminati, Rothschilds, lizard people, David Icke. 🙄🥱🥱

And they all allude to the fact that they have this secret knowlege that sets them above 'the sheeple'.
Personally I don't really think I could spend my day desperately searching for any kind of clandestine and outrageous plots by real world Bond villains to control the populace.

Think I preferred it when it was just about the Apollo moon landings.
 
I've been wearing my mask like a good person - and honestly the amount of staff / workers who have said they believe it's all a conspiracy has been crazy
 
QAnon - and there are believers running for government here, who are likely to be elected. Truly frightening.

Not saying this validates ‘Q’ but there was/is actually a group working for one of the intelligence agencies called the ‘Q group’. There was an article on them a few years back how they were trying to expose something or other. Don’t know if it was linked to snowden.
 
Friend of mine posted all over the Facebook just before lock down about thousands of troops were going to be patrolling the streets. You may have seen the video about it posted by someone called Jason Nota.
Now working as I did at the MODs Global Operations Security Control Centre, you might imagine that I would have been a little bit involved in something like that in some small way.
When I asked my mate if he was entirely sure about this, he said "I've seen the pictures, I have knowledge from reliable sources...they're all moving out of Catterick and it's happening right now".

And of course, they weren't.

I've known this lad for years but he's getting deeper into the conspiracy thing, thinking everything that happens has a sinister motive behind it.

I'd love to do some threads on what is going on in our brains here, but I'm fairly sure it will get hijacked by brexit too soon.
 
Nothing like a virtue signal to show how above it all you are though by not subscribing to these crazy theories.

The reality is that the media no longer reports truth (if it ever did) just the same as the extreme theorists don't.

People know this so look for new sources of information.

Many conspiracy theories (look up the definition) are factually real, simple as that. Many are false.

One thing's for sure it's not going to get any better whilst the institutions do not provide an honest outlet of information.

FACT!

I love the way people use that word and expect people to just believe whatever they say.

Also, people who use the phrase virtue signalling incorrectly. Mind you, I should have known you'd be a conspiracy theorist little al. It fits.

YAY - we have a real conspiracy theorist!
 
I don't understand.. Iran contra a conspiracy theory and also a fact.

The dodgy dossier a conspiracy theory and a fact.

It's impossible to have any kind of normal discussion these days.

Oh p.s. special shout out to immediately trying to point out that I'm a conspiracy theorist (in a bully like way) when I'm not, just providing an explanation to why conspiracy theories are popular in today's day and age.

MODs Global Operations Security Control Centre - give over!
More likely The Walrus, off the Hoe on Athenaeum Street!
"Global Security" - bouncer on the door on a Satda night.
Still.
It beats Union street......


bootnecks...........

The so-called 'dodgy dossier' wasn't ever a conspiracy theory. It was a falsified government document, misused to justify a war. That's an entirely different thing.
