    How are China’s stringent lockdowns explained in this conspiracy theory? Also, where do I sign up as a member?

        A repressive regime that becomes less repressive during a global pandemic is highly suspicious. Gotta keep up appearances.

            I like you.

            Like, this is what conspiracy should be - actually somewhat believable - and not dumb shit like flat earth.

            I always held that 9/11 was dubious. Not an “inside job” per se, but definitely a case of “we’re gonna turn our backs for just a second, and you terrorists better not do something silly while we’re not looking!”

            One of the biggest things that will always stick out to me: the WMDs. They were adamant Iraq had them. They said they had actual evidence. None of it was true. It all came across as an excuse for ol’ George to go in and try to finish what daddy started in '91.

            Just to be clear as well, I think other conspiracies such as the controlled demolition of the towers and the fake plane at the pentagon are bullshit. I don’t have my tinfoil hat on that tightly.

              But why? What they won letting that happen?

                The Patriot Act gives the government practically unlimited permission to spy on all citizens. It was created and passed as a result of 9/11.

                    It was introduced on October 23rd 2001 in direct response to the 9/11 attack and signed into law on 26th.

              other conspiracies such as the controlled demolition of the towers

              Maybe not WTC 1 or 2 but WTC 7 looks exactly like a controlled demolition.
