Body Found in Wyoming Park ‘Consistent With the Description' of Gabby Petito - FBI confirmed - Brian Laundrie still missing, FBI searched his home

One of the prevailing theories on /x/ that I've seen is that neither of these people exist, and that this is a gov psyop to distract drama-hungry normies from actual news. A part of me believes that this is plausible, which is a sign I might actually be going nuts. No, I won't take my meds.

Damn, that was already my theory and I didn't even notice the names. Not that I need any evidence to convince myself that literally anything is kayfabe but wow, now I'm convinced.

I doubt it's a government op, though. Mostly because I hope there's gonna be a punchline.

Nah, that's too much work for the government. They don't manufacture the crime, they manfuacture the media response.

Murders/disappearances happen all the time. They just prop juicy ones up when they need people to pay attention to something else.
 
The upside is there is one less annoying wannabe influencer in the world.
It irritates me that she was dedicating her life to this “<3 romantic van life” influencer campaign when the reality was it was a disaster, untenable and her boyfriend ended up murdering her ass. But if she can get attention by taking selfies in scenic vistas who cares if it's all total bullshit. She obviously didn’t care if everything she posted was utter bullshit. It's got all the "fake it till you make it" stink of a MLM campaign. It's sad that young people think that driving around and taking photos of themselves is some sort of viable career option. It's about as good as moving to LA to be a movie star.

All these idiots are trying to make a really cliched advertising campaigns about their own lives and it's sad af. I think like Gabby they get so deluded they get invested in believing their own bullshit.
 
True crime nutters have been around since penny dreadfuls in the 1800’s. True crime stuff has had a sizable audience since mass publication printing became cheap. It used to be one of the main ways newspapers competed for readers from 1895-1940, the yellow journalism heydays.

People acting like true crime is some internet phenomenon are morons. Newsstands used to have tons of “true detective” magazines and then paperback books about notorious killers and crime - in fact those are where the lazy YT and podcasters steal material from for shows about pre-2005 crimes and killers.

The old true detective mags were such popular publications that serial killers like Ted Bundy used to wank off to them as a teenagers and also why these 1970’s era serial killers started conflating sexual desire with violence. (All the old mags showed buxom women being tied up, attacked, kidnapped, etc.. )

True crime stuff online is just taking the same old formula to its latest form of mass communication.
True crime began with the OJ Simpson trial but never gained any real traction until 2014, with the Serial podcast.

What you have from 2014 until now is a woman-led political movement to overturn the Constitution, in the name of safety and anti-racism. This movement is almost completely unaware of itself, which allows it fly under the radar.

If you read the YouTube comments about this case, true crime wine moms are saying that his parents should be arrested and put away forever, right now without a trial, and also that he should have been immediately arrested or put under surveillance when he returned without her. Like, they think a government AI should have detected that their cell phones were apart and immediately invaded their privacy. They want no due process of law at all. Not just in this case, but in any case. "We know he did it just put him away!" is the rallying cry for them around all super scary crimes.

Go through any true crime YouTube comments, you'll see a lot of totally normal people advocating for sterilizing the poor as well as putting people away for decades without evidence for very minor crimes.

Edit to not doublepost: a great example of this is the growing widespread support to overturn part of the Constitution that outlaws double-jeopardy. In other words, if you're clearly guilty but the prosecution does a poor job and the jury acquits you of the crime, the government should have unlimited chances to convict you. In Scotland, they overturned their double-jeopardy laws when a particularly cute young girl was brutally murdered and her dad was really sad about it. That's all it takes, cuteness, fear, and sadness. That's all it takes to lose your country's freedom in a snap.
 
Would be quite odd to have a party hack like Joy Reed dissing the coverage if that was the case...

Sorry, I'm not saying it IS a conspiracy or that they've always done it.

I'm just saying, that *would* be the conspiracy I think.

I think it's much more likely that it's a juicy missing persons case so the media pushes it for views.

If his parents were hiding him, they were obstructing justice tho...

Agreed when it comes to this kind of shit, although the FBI's main job is manufacturing more dramatic stories so that's not completely true.
But like I said I don't think it's government, mostly because if you have enough imagination to conjure a scenario where someone else would set this up and manufacture a body (or have people in the right place to lie about the whole thing) it's a way too entertaining possibility not to believe.

Everything's bullshit anyway so why not add a little magical sauce

I'm sorry friend, but this is abolute lunacy. You legit believe people weren't mad into Ted Bundy, Charles Manson and other loonies until a fucking podcast in 2014? That's like saying "The internet wasn't really a thing until Twitter came along" or "Books weren't a medium until Harry Potter"
