Not "what ones do you believe", because I'm not asking that. I mean, if you were to talk with a neighbour, some random person at the pub, a junky on the bus, or something, a normal day-to-day encounter, and they started talking about, could you play along and say "oh yeah, I can believe that, I heard such-and-such...."
I collect fringe belief-systems as a hobby, like marbles, because I lost mine and want them back.
So I will happy rant along with about:and many others! It is like having a bunch of different shoes to wear!
- The Illuminati
- Science is lies
- The moon landing was fake
- Time isn't linear
- American satinism
- They sunk the Titanic on purpose
- Nukes aren't real
- The pyramids were built with ancient high tech
- The pharoses used the Book of Dead to really reincarnate
- The past is mutable and different for everyone
- Donald Trump's hair
- Pandas are fake and were invented
- The earth is not a spinning ball
- Tesla and his pigeon
- The D's and the R's really aren't that different
- WWI was started by England and France
- Fluoride is mind control
- The universe requires consent
- Epstein wasn't really killed
So, do other people do this? What are you willing to entertain? What are you not willing to entertain? For example, I avoid eugenics and supremacist ideologies, because they can be so hate-adjacent. That's just practical.
I heard this was a splinter of a conspiracy site, but without the mudslinging. But you guys seem really in the closet? It is crazy that everyone is afraid of seeming crazy.
i would probably discuss any subject that came up (as long as i am at least remotely interested), i usually listen, and then give my own thoughts about it and the reasons why. i usually avoid telling people are wrong, unless, that is if i am a 110% certain they are. then i tell them exactly that, and the reason why, usually with verifiable sources :)(not talking about online here) :)
Nothing is impossible, the impossible just takes a little longer to achieve.
