Hey Pandas, What Is Your Favorite Conspiracy Theory? (Closed)

When Disney released their animated movie based on Hans Christian Andersen's tale of The Ice Queen, they named it "Frozen" to redirect online searches away from information about Walt Disney himself being cryogenically frozen.

That Donald Trump actually has a functional brain.

Favourite? Not sure how one could have a single favourite, they're nearly all so laughable, but I do particularly like any of them that would involve thousands of people "in the know" and/or multiple governments to be acting together to conceal something, like area 51 or the faked moon landings. Or indeed "Sept 11th was faked" where literally millions of people witnessed the events they're claiming were not real.

The rich/elite of the world are all in league to hide how much wealth they have to avoid taxation.

Oh wait...

1. Justin Trudeau is Fidel Castro's son. The resemblance is crazy.

2. Chip companies make their bags loud on purpose. So you have to share. So you have to buy more.

Your Government and Politicians care about you.

Someone once told me they didn't believe in gravity... Just try to get your heads round that...

Okay, here is another one that I like: There are people who claim that the state of Montana doesn't exist. Anyone claiming to be from Montana or to have visited Montana is lying and in on the conspiracy. What we think of as Montana is really just extensions of North and South Dakota (whose existence is also dubious at best). This ranks up there with the "Birds are actually fake, government spying drones" in the conspiracy books.

I've got a local one from my area: The Gosford Glyphs(though it has made it onto the internet, so let me know if you've heard of them) . There are a bunch of "hieroglyphs" carved into the sandstone out in the bush up the road from my house. People actually believe ancient Egyptians sailed their reed boat all the way from Egypt around the midfle east, India, China, Philippines, Indonesia half of Australia and finally landed 70km north of Sydney. Furthermore a National Parks ranger caught a guy in the 60s carving them. If you look at them there are dogs with bones, penis, and other silly ones. They even got an egyptologist to decipher the hieroglyphics and it was determined that they're gibberish and poorly executed. In saying that they do look cool and it's a nice walk out to them. You go past the Grandmother Tree which is probably the biggest redgum left on the Coast

Aliens are real and you cannot tell me otherwise :)

That one where the CIA disposed the democratically elected leader because fruit companies were lost land...oh, that happened (Guatemala, PBSUCCESS) How about, The one where the CIA tried to use LSD for mind control. No wait, that's a thing too. (MKULTRA). Okay, then when the CIA trafficked crack cocaine from Nicaragua and Columbia for distribution in low income urban areas and...oh, no. that's a real thing too. (Allegedly. the Contras, U.S. backed right-wing rebel groups in both countries, definitely trafficked drugs, but the CIA lead probe found no link between the CIA and drug trafficking. Okay we have a winner)

I don't want to live on this planet any more.

The gender of the Great A'Tuin is unknown. I believe that Rincewind and Twoflower solved it.

It's my favorite because it's so ludicrous. The One Electron theory states that there is only one electron in the entire universe. It travels so fast that it goes backward in time, therefore being able to exist everywhere at once. The best part: technically, we can't disprove it, due to the unobservable nature of electrons and shaky understanding of space-time.

My neighbor believes in several like the jewish lightening that caused wildfires. She has bought a generator and all kinds of wilderness items in case Snake Pliskin pushes the button. I'm just amazed she fit all that in a 2 bedroom apt. Seriously if its the end, I"d rather go with it than survive it.

Personally, I'm a fan of the Polybius arcade game conspiracy. If you're not familiar, the legend goes that some shady, Men In Black government entity set up cabinets of a mind controlling/altering game called Polybius. It appeared over night in some arcades in Portland, Oregon. The cabinet was jet black, save for the name of the title in block letters on the marquee. Players would report having seizures, mental breakdowns, insomnia, hallucinations, you name it! After a few months it disappeared from the arcades, with all arcade owners and workers swearing it never existed.

The government helps spread conspiracy theories so that when real information does get out, it's just labeled a conspiracy theory and disregarded.

I don’t believe in this one but I think it’s super funny and that’s why it’s my favorite (also the fact it’s been disproven). The lock Ness monster. It was disproven to be just a piece of driftwood. (I did punctuation and grammar go away grammarly people)

Probably, we’re living in a computer simulation. If it’s true, then the being who’s controlling me, isn’t the best with tech/gaming
