I’m not a conspiracy theory guy but I seen the post on 9/11 on no stupid questions and it seemed more fleshed out than I expected.

So what are conspiracy theories that turned out to be true?

And what are the most believable conspiracy theories out there?

    Tell me you didn’t read the Unabomber manifesto without telling me you didn’t read the Unabomber manifesto.

    He NAILED social disconnectedness, with the caveat that he couldn’t imagine that the internet would make this 100x times worse in a span of 15 years.

      I read his manifesto. Don’t call me a liar again.

      Of course he “nailed” it. It is a Barnum statement. Literally any time in human history you can bring up social disconnect and it will apply to someone. Just read T.S. Eliot the man was whining about being lonely in London turn of last century. Humans are social animals so yeah there is always going to be someone who feels like they aren’t getting enough attention.

        It wasn’t a ‘barnum’ statement and you’ve proven your intellectual dishonesty.

        I hereby banish you from my internet forever, liar.
