Youre on CCTV god knows how many times a day (mask wearing actually makes it harder to track me on this but the CTs miss the irony there when they’re screaming about not wearing them), I’m sure if they wanted to access health records they could already do so and likewise get DNA through my dentist or whatever.

This was something that amused me about the people who stormed the Capitol. They seemed to be so anti-mask that they ended up making themselves easier to track down because their faces were so visible (well that and the fact that a lot of them already had criminal records, but hey-ho). There’s obviously a more disturbing message there too in that they were so confident that they wouldn’t get into trouble that they thought they didn’t need to cover their faces, but that’s for another day.
 
I love reading conspiracies, aliens etc and have frequented Reddit forums for years. I’m quite open minded but I just find all this NWO/ pizza gate stuff hilarious, I just refuse to believe Boris and co would be organised enough to orchestrate “a great reset”. (Which has no gain whatsoever). Most conspiracy forums used to be a place for a fun light hearted debate on various theories now you get abuse and name called if you don’t believe in the nonsense they are posting.
Theres a guy at my work I’m actually quite worried about as his mental health seems to have taken a turn for the worse because of all this. He’s destroyed his mobile phone so he can’t be “tracked”. But will work in a building with over 50 cctv cameras and will clock in and out every shift 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

100% agree. I love light hearted CTs. escapism. but the world has gone mad. well, some. shame about your co-worker, it's very sad.
 
Just thought of a few things that make me laugh.

When the far right go on about Hillary being a crook yet that is exactly what Trump is. And the whole pizzagate tit about her and others drinking childrens blood (?) to make them look young.... Have they never heard of botox or fillers? 😅😂. And the fact they thhk Hillary actually sliced off a child's face and wore it. Jesus Christ.

Another is the covid deniers and people who say they won't get the vaccine. Well, wait until countries require proof of having it on your passport to enter. Can't wait to see the tantrums they throw cause they can't get their cheap vacation in Mexico 😁

I have often thought about small-town America, and I can’t help but think that if Trump were a used-car salesman in a lot of these places then people would see him for exactly what he is, and they wouldn’t touch his cars with a barge-pole. He’s got it all - the dodgy past, the string of mistresses, the trophy wife and the prom-queen daughter. He’s a terrible businessman and if he were doing what he’s been doing on a small scale, he’d be a local joke. I can’t remember the actual quote but there’s a saying about how if you’re going to commit a crime, commit a crime that’s so big that people just don’t see it. That sums up Trump so well.
 
not exactly a conspiracy theory, but an influencer/vlogger I semi follow (Wheres Mollie) just for escapist travel content (never seemed particularly clever but a nice girl), has recently started some kind of course on "breathwork" and started posting about how "breathing correctly" can stop viruses/bacteria from entering your body, implying that CVOID could be prevented by breathing "correctly".
I found this ridiculous, obv, then about a week ago (in stories so nothing stayed up long) started posting about how she doesn't really believe in COVID, MSM, "do your research", "i am not a scientist but I have a gut feeling..." It is so scary how many people seem to be sucked into this madness atm

Scary. I feel like with these qanon and covid conspiracies, people often fall for them because they need something to "believe" or "blame" and they can't make sense of the fact that pandemics simply happen or don't understand how they happen so a conspiracy is more simple to them. I am biased as I am athiest but I don't think relgion is much different - many turn to it when they need someone to "blame" or to understand something more simply. I've always found religion hard much like this conspiracy as nothing would convince me that God etc is real. I am very stubborn though lol and believe in science and evolution.

There's a big religious aspect to many CTs - it always seems to be Satanism, doesn't it?

I don't get why the Illuminati apparently have to advertise themselves as such. If I were part of a secret cabal controlling the world I wouldn't be sending coded tweets to my millions of followers or making music videos full of hidden messages, you know?

True, it does almost seem like the "new religion" in a way, I do find it interesting, it is like regardless of relgion or not lots pf people just seem to need some kind of "belief system". It is why mindfulness has become so popular IMO, like a "non religion religion".
Some conspiracies I kind of get, as it makes sense how it benefits someone, but the COVID ones make NO sense, who has it benefitted to crash the glboal economy like this?!
 
Why does everything have to be a conspiracy though 😂 If one person has read too much into something and not quite got it right you can forgive them but it’s often the same people continuously resurfacing with yet another truth they’ve uncovered.

They also said as long as your body is healthy, i.e. GMO free, organic, essential oil, your body should be able to fight MMR 🥴 And these are essentially why they haven't contacted MMR.

You can't win any argument with them.

One of the more extreme CT’s I follow is like this, really into veganism, crystals, ‘manifesting’ etc. They genuinely believe pretty much every theory from flat earth to adrenochrome. They’re ‘anti sun cream’ and post about how sun cream causes cancer not the sun and even posts recipes on how to make your own ‘chemical free’ sun lotion. About how meat eaters are poisoning themselves by eating ‘death’ and we’re all going to get cancer from eating the occasional McDonald’s. Genuinely scary stuff. They just seem so paranoid all the time, like everything in existence is out to get them in some way.

I honestly think some of them get a kick out of it all. Bit like Pam in Gavin & Stacy “it’s the drama Mick, I just love it!”🤣
 
My partner is a bit of a tin foil hat type man. He watches all the stuff on UFO;s and aliens and shape shifters. That i can just about handle. The Trump crap really winds me up though. My partner thinks the illuminati has something to do with it. I wasnt really paying attention but something about the secret service being set up by George Bush snr, and all presidents being apart of the skull and cross society. Basically my partner likes Trump because apparently he isnt a puppet (as opposed to past presidents).
Hopefully this makes sense, as you can tell i switch off when he starts talking to me about it.
PS- Im not a trump supporter, quite the opposite infact. Im all about Bernie :)

It must be bleeping miserable being them. Imagine being terrified of everything!
 
I've never been a CT, I read the whole 911 is fake, maddy mcann theories, faltbearth etc but they never seemed to be as vehement and aggressive as it is now. I have a friend on FB, we've known each other 16 years but I don't recognise her. She was always into the above theories but since Covid she's become so angry. Her mum died recently and I guess there's other stuff going on but she's constantly posting angry statuses. It doesn't help that she has made like minded friends and they are all winding each other up, to the point she says she feels like hurting someone as she's so upset. She recently did a status about covid and someone mentioned they were currently unwell with covid. That person was torn to shreds by people telling her she was falling for the msm fear machine, that she wasn't unwell and that she should duck off. I find it so hard to read but I don't want to delete her as it adds to her victim mentality and also she's my friend and I hate the thought of deleting her.

However I did delete a school mum who insists that all we need for covid is vitamin d and homeopathy, and that all vaccines are unnecessary and a money making machine for the big pharma. That did feel good not having to read her guff anymore.

Wow, that is a disgusting way to treat someone. They are such huge gaslighters. It is hard because she is your friend but I deleted people like her recently from my SM as what they share is such poison.
