Conspiracies & The Like

Snakebite · « **on:** January 31, 2025, 06:33:43 PM »

From the moon landing to flat earth, from Bigfoot to Loch Ness, from ancient aliens building pyramids & Area 51 to 9/11, & many more…

On the heels of the executive order to declassify details concerning the Kennedy & MLK assassinations, I am very interested to know the truth of what happened. If suspicions hold true of government involvement, it got me thinking of what other historical anomalies we’ve gotten wrong (purposely or accidentally).

There exists evidence that a cataclysmic event occurred 12,000 years ago that wiped out a civilization that we still don’t fully understand in Turkey. Based on evidence, they were far more advanced than previously thought possible by scholars for that time. Archeological discovery has been halted in the region after only uncovering 10% of the city. Funding is certainly not the issue. So I find myself asking, what are they hiding?

Regarding conspiracies, any of ‘em that grab your attention? Do you have any of your own that aren’t mainstream?

I'd love to know all the facts of the JFK assassinations. I've been to the 6th floor of the Texas School Book Depository building, and looked out the window that Oswald fired at Kennedy from. If he's the lone gunman, I can't understand why he wouldn't take the shot when he's coming down Houston Street, which I think is an easier shot, and instead takes the shot when he's moving away on Elm.

As for Roswell, I don't believe it. Too many enlisted guys involved. Love the Lance Corporal Underground, but no way they are keeping that quiet when those guys hit the bars.

You speak truth. Same with the Green Berets that swear to have fought and killed a red-headed giant in Kandahar wielding a spear.

I believe at least part of what we saw in the Moon Landing was shot on a stage by Stanley Kubrick as part propaganda (had to beat those Rooskies!) and part highlighting the real work the space program was doing but didn't have a good way to show the public at that time. I believe we did go there a few times, but that first one, they launched the guys on another mission to test things and shot the rest to get people behind it and force the USSR to hurry and make mistakes.

JFK was shot and killed by Lee Harvey Oswald who acted alone. Were there a lot of people who wanted to do it? Sure, just like there's a lot of folks who want a coach fired but don't have the wherewithal to act on it.

Same for RFK and MLK, Jr., etc. All killed by lone assassins.

My two cents.

Agree with your moon take. They likely just wanted to give such a historical moment justice and lacked the technology to capture it effectively in space.

Disagree with the assassination take, cautiously. The circumstances in each case seem too taboo to be true.

That's fair.

I can't get behind you guys on the moon landing. What makes you guys think any part of it was staged?

For me, it's what I indicated in the first reply. I don't know we had the tech to actually get there when we did or broadcast it. However, we were close. Therefore, it makes sense to stage it for the PR shot in the arm, the motivated support/funding, and to force the USSR to get in a hurry that they couldn't afford nor were ready to do.

We went to the moon eventually. I just don't think that what we saw from there.

Apollo11 camera to me is the best proof that at least that part was staged. Non professional photographers could not possibly handle the intricate adjustments on the device to produce the stellar photos while wearing those bulky gloves.

I have 9 -11 beliefs that I don't discuss with anyone including the evidence of thermite, the melting point of steel along with the sustained temps of jet fuel.

Building seven is a separate mystery unto itself.

On the 9/11 piece, a documentary titled "Zeitgeist" that came out in 2007 raised my suspicions speaking along the same lines regarding thermite, melting point of steel, and conflicting intelligence reports. Why do you not discuss with anyone, if you don't mind me asking?

I don’t remember the particulars on their Christianity episodes. All I do remember is that they claimed there are a lot of parallels with other religions/historical figures that predate Christianity.

Christianity can’t be disproven, so they are dumbasses if they claimed to disprove it in that film.
