What conspiracy theories do you believe in? - Put your tinfoil hats on

The whole idea that moon landing would've been faked is so weird because it's peddled by your typical conspiratard - a being who vehemently believes that the evil elites are about to bring the hell of socialism upon all of existence.
I suggest you pay more attention to the demography of conspiracy theorists; most of them have agendas other than the flat resistance of socialism.

The majority of conspiracy theorists I know on a personal basis are socialists, for one thing. A cursory examination of social media would tell you that this is common, if not the norm.
 
Might as well compile all of mine into one big post:

1. At the end of the Ice Age about 12,000-11,000 years ago something really fucking bad happened that we aren’t privy to(and likely won’t get a full story of) that caused the extinction of Pleistocene megafauna.

2. Even then some members of some species managed to struggle along with increasingly tiny populations over time, persisting into history. A few things like Giant beavers and smaller ground sloths in the America’s might have even been right at their species finish line when the first European settlers stepped foot here.

3. Many if not some cryptids might just be animals from other versions or timelines of Earth that got stranded due to
dimensional rubbing/blipping/etc.

4. Humanity started building civilizations or attempts at civilizations far, far earlier then what’s in the “official” books. You’re telling me for 250,000+ years we just sat on our asses in caves scratching our butts? How advanced they could have gotten is anyone’s guess but I wouldn’t leave agriculture and bronze working out of the question. One of these could have been wiped out at the end of the ice age, their former cities and towns degraded by natural elements and now below sea level.

5. Some smaller non avian dinosaurs and possibly small marine reptiles survived a few million years past the Cretaceous extinction into the Paleocene before fading away. Even if they were discovered they would likely be hidden or fibbed since the modern science orthodoxy hates being proven wrong.

6. While not entirely and universally hollow, there are some vast large underground pockets and caverns inside the earths crust. Separated for hundreds of millions of years, these places could have their own bizarre and alien-esque ecosystems.

7. Giant squid can reach lengths greater then what is officially believed, possibly reaching up to 70+ meters in length. These monsters would be extremely, extremely rare...but a report of one attacking a boat once every century in the olden days would keep the legend ripe. Also sperm whales have been photographed with sucker marks on their skin that if accurately calculated, further lends support to the existence of super size “kraken” squid.

8. TPTB are largely laughably incompetent and the whole black pill shit of “THEY WILL KILL US ALL 1000 YEARS OF DARKNESS!” is largely smoke and mirrors. Even more so, their spoiled sex and drug addicted kids taking charge would crash any so called New World Order that their parents and grandparents concocted for them into the ground within a decade.

9. Actual attempts at cloning mammoths and other recently extinct species have been made but behind closed doors and zipped lips. Whether they have been fruitful is anyone’s guess.

10. Mars once supported a biosphere much longer then expected with complex multicellular life before a colossal extinction event wiped it all out.

To be honest, most of these aren't actually conspiracy theories. The thing is, it's entirely theoretically possible for some of these things, like numbers 2 and 4 to be trueish, but we just don't have any evidence to back such assumptions up. And it's obvious that cloning has been experimented more upon than is publicly announced, but the same goes with every other technology that has been officially "banned", like chemical WMDs and shit like that.

Every "flat earth" and "never went on the moon" believer I know is a black guy.

Anti-white conspiracy theories? Makes sense.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if we DID land on the moon but the footage itself was either prerecorded or falsified altogether. This would explain all the little discrepancies that skeptics nitpick about.

Well, it could be possible, considering that it was so big moment for the USA that they certainly wouldn't wanted to have fuck it up. It would make sense to make pre-recorded fakes just in case something went south, like for example the transmission technology malfunctioning or astronauts dying or whatever. But, as has already been explained in this thread, creating believable fakes with 60's film technology, and especially swapping the film reels in the middle of the broadcast would've been harder to pull off than actually going to Moon.
 
You mean international hub airports throughout the world?
Yes, its completely normal to get shit like that on every airhub. Nothing unusual here.

You know, depending on which way you trace it: That nice man could be turning their despair into happy rainbow thoughts instead. Look, he even kept that dove from pooping on them by corking its ass with the tip of his sabre. What a swell fellow.
 
The idea that there would be structures on the visible side of Moon is so easy to debunk with proof that believing such just betrays one's ignorance about astronomy in general. Just about every university with astronomy department has powerful enough lens- and mirror-telescopes that can easily view the Moon with enough clarity that if there were structures there, they would've been detected by now.
So, for the record, I believe we've been to the moon.

That said our telescopes are pretty shit. There isn't a single scope on earth that can resolve the shit left behind by the moon landing up to and including the lander which is a decent sized lump.

Anything under couple 100 ft, colored appropriately and a bit of outline fragging to avoid straight lines would be essentially invisible.

Wouldn't make sense to build on the surface anyway, it'd all be underground so all you're trying to hide would be access hatches and ramps etc.
 
They don't all have to be about lizard people and illuminaughty, do they?
 
People in the MeToo movement, while their were actual credible fucked up things that happened, people deliberately accused people who didn't do anything wrong of horrible things so they would be forced to step down and shape their industries in the way they want.

Happened with Pixar (John Lasseter, only guilty thing he did was being a weirdo who put his hands on peoples knees but in more of a "I'm here to tell you something" sort of way), Ubisoft (Michel Ancel specifically), Chris Avellone,

It's not the telescopes being particularly shitty, it's just physically impossible. Well, not physically impossible per se, just impractical. In order to resolve the moon landing gear you'd need a telescope with at least 25 m of aperture to just barely resolve the landing site. For visible wavelengths, it's just not practical.

You’re telling me for 250,000+ years we just sat on our asses in caves scratching our butts?

This is one of those questions that doesn't have a neat and tidy answer someone can write a thesis on and make a historical narrative out of.

Back in the 50s and 60s when cultural anthropology was all about hunter gatherer tribes, they found a lot of these hunter gatherers actually had a passive kind of agriculture. They'd move from place to place seasonally following various plant ripening cycles and the animals that fed on them. They'd camp out, eat a bunch, leave seeds and shit everywhere basically passively sowing next year's crop and doing selective agriculture.

It's probable these cycles got refined over thousands of years along with tools and building techniques, and the plants changed too. It's unlikely that suddenly overnight man had everything all at once to create a permanent settlement. But we'll never know because wood tools and straw huts leave no trace.

I think Lasseter is a dickhead, only recently did I learn about him firing Chris Sanders and that reeks of him getting rid of a potential rival.

And Pixar was already going to shit under his watch, but I don't believe he sexually assaulted anyone and that was all 100% politically motivated.

Still, what he did to Chris Sanders was really dirty.

Look at the comet bombardment theories. New discoveries in the last two years have all but confirmed it.

Check out some of the early Egyptian stonework, particularly the (type of stone i can't spell...chitz?) Disk. That and the water erosion of the sphinx seals it.

Further the "all dinosaurs had feathers" thing is a silly trend and maybe a psyop.

I'm going with giants.

Yes.
