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

I’m fairly sure it does have an effect - aren’t the tidal influences large enough to affect t earthquake frequency or something? I’m sure this has been discussed here before a while back, I was surprised to see the magnitude of the effect. It’s not massive but it’s enough to do stuff

The tidal effect of the Moon is magnitudes larger than any interplanetary effect, if that was a thing we should see absolutely catastrophic earthquakes several times a day.
Maybe that's a more steady state system, and the lower frequency of the interplanetary tidal forces cause more of a perturbation that's more catastrophic... Planetary alignments can have some effect, though. It seems that the 11 year solar cycle is influenced by Venus-Earth-Jupiter alignment, for example, by causing a small disturbance that has a larger influence on the plasma.

I know, I don’t mean that magnitude of effect, but I am sure we’ve had a thread on this before and there is some kind of noticeable (small, admittedly) effect of the alignment of the moon and sun together. I’m sure it was in the context of eclipses/ new moons and earthquakes or volcanoes or something.

It definitely yields larger tides, so I could see it having an effect on tectonics if the situation is already labile.

Speaking of the moon: I think part of why everyone is so batshit insane is because we never get "dark" anymore.

The six dogs that went into space earlier on was faked and was a publicity stunt for Blue Origins.

Proof? (among ten other pieces of proof) None of them wore space-suits in a pressurised cabin. Out of precaution, if nothing else, they should have had proper life saving suits on in the event of depressurisation. They could have returned to earth in space suits, not in the lulzy jumpsuits that they had on.

Even pilots who fly the high-altitude but not space shit like U2s have to wear a space-suit.

Why are these broads the exception?

The Japanese are weird psychologically - they possess a troubling preoccupation with perversion to a level simply not seen in other nations, to the point where many degenerate fetishes and sexual practices have Japanese names. They also possess a strange aptitude for acts of cruelty. We saw in World War II, where even among the Axis powers, the Japanese stood out for the seeming gratuity of the war crimes committed by their troops. Shall we talk about that suicide forest where they go en masse when they bring shame to famiry? That wouldn't happen in any other country. And of course, anime. Just anime.

Now, hear me out. But I think it has something to do with their diet.

They eat an awful lot of fish in Japan. Fish consumption is Japan is the highest in the world - they eat 81% of the tuna in the sea, and fish far outstrips other forms of meat. Seafood is popular to the degree that they even consume it raw - sushi is a Japanese invention. They eat living sea creatures, sometimes consuming octopus and squid alive. They still go whaling - they say for 'scientific purposes', but come on, we all know.

"But Miriam!" I hear you cry, "Scandinavian people eat fish too and they seem fine!" Yeah, OK. But not the the same level as the Japanese. What's the pollution like in their waters? What are the mercury levels in their oceans like? Do they have a shit ton of unscrupulous (sorry, unscrupurous) mining organisations who just dump their waste runoff in the rivers and seas and don't give a fuck where it ends up? Do they have diseases like Minamata disease, as a direct result of eating fish from polluted water supplies? That even infects their cats? Hello Kitty? More like Goodbye Kitty!

TL;DR - the Japanese are weird demented Innsmouth people who have poisoned their own minds by consuming fish tainted with mercury for generations.

Blue Origin sends its capsule straight up to the karmen line and straight down again. It's only "space" on a technicality.

But that said: maybe they were hoping for an accident? Imagine a world without katy perry...

Fun fact: the japs also have something called "torisashi", which is sashimi, but with thin slices of raw chicken. Who in their right mind eats raw chicken?

You won't like hearing this, but I think it has to do with their intellect
Highly intellectual people tend to be very strange, and when your whole nationa's average IQ is so so much higher than the world average, you're going to be prone to unusual and esoteric thinking, and with it come things that transcend "normalcy"

torisashi

this is effectively a presentation meal, like fugu, because it requires such skill, sanitation and a highly specialized, incredibly healthy and well kept type of chicken, that it's essentially a flex
"even our CHICKEN is so clean and fresh that you can eat it raw"

Japan has effectively already nearly eradicated salmonella anyway due to their intensely high farming standards and the fact that they're so secluded as an island

 

[Miriam Margoyles]

I mean, I know I'm going to get people pushing back on my claim that the Japanese are the most degenerate people in the word, because India exists, but I think it's a different kind of perversion. And yeah, an Indian man would rape a lizard and a Japanese man probably wouldn't.

But he would draw it.

And then upload it onto the Internet for other Japanese men to masturbate over. And create fetish games about raping lizards. And engage in page long debates about which lizardfu is superior.

fugu

Again, it's a fish. And again, why? Why would you look at something deadly poisonous and think "Immunah eat that." I know you could say it's a flex, but who fucking cares? Why are you so obsessed with seemingly eating every fucking creature that lives in the sea?

It's madness and it's vaguely Lovecraftian.

 

[Cuntspiracy Man]

why?

I just explained why

*~*~Because~*~*
Because you can
And again, with intellect comes a certain level of insanity

Blue Origin sends its capsule straight up to the karmen line and straight down again. It's only "space" on a technicality.

Fighter pilots have (somewhat) pressurised suits on and breathe pure oxygen because of the G's and, in the event of a depressurisation, they don't pass out.
For me to believe that the blue origin capsule was pressurised and delivered oxygen en mass to the whole tiny little capsule, with no backups for any emergencies, on a publically televised flight, that, in the case of an emergency, would be fatal and would sink the company forever?
All that risk because they didn't wear a proper suit? Would they be that blase after the Titan sub incident?

But that said: maybe they were hoping for an accident? Imagine a world without katy perry..

I can imagine it. Katy Perry doesn't exist in my world and I think she has been lobotomised or had brain surgery after the 'closed-eye' incident because she speaks like a fucking moron nowadays. She was never a rocket scientist, but she was more switched on than she is now. Unless she's a double like McCartney, Lavigne and Cyrus.

Here's a video about the moon:

He gets a few things wrong, like we haven't gone back. Recently there was a whole slew of countries sending stuff up (not people, true) but China got to the dark side of the moon. I don't blame the guy though really; I saw one passing mention of what China had done and then other things happen, as they do.

Salmonella gets all the headlines, but the real problem with raw chicken is campylobacter. Even freshly slaughtered chicken is riddled with that shit.

 

[Whoopsie Daisy]

Ok, I've just looked through my history and I'm a little bit pissed off because I was sure I typed up a schizo post about the Pope being dead last month and was only kept alive (it was a double in a fat suit) to get the religion through Easter. Now Easter has ended, he dies the day after?

Nigga was dead last month.

 

[PandaChai]

Like how RBG was dead and in hell long before it was announced

 

[NoReturn]

Now Easter has ended, he dies the day after?

THIS is how I learn the Pope died?!
Though I agree with you, the whole affair has been awfully suspicious.

 

[Cuntspiracy Man]

I think cases of important people dying and the public being lied to about when and how it happened are very common
Some personalities have enough power and influence to have people under them force this stuff to be altered for media or political purposes, putting on appearances, or just to seem nicer and more presentable

In fact death records are being changed all the time even for non famous people, but with civilians they don't have the power to affect it, so it's just up to whatever is necessary at the time
Like during the Covid disaster, lots of people who happened to have the light sniffles when they died were recorded as dying "from Covid", even if they fell off a ladder and busted their skull or died of a preexisting cancer, if they died 'with' Covid, they died OF Covid, that's that! And at times when their families would intervene and claim otherwise, they were strong armed into accepting the narrative and stating that, yes, their relative DID die of Covid, or else they won't get the body back for the funeral

Interestingly, 'last words' are also often times wrong, but for less nefarious purposes (Well, there ARE cases where a person's last words just so happen to be an admission to a crime they didn't commit or getting an important person off the hook, or just stating something that would support a current narrative, which coincidentally only the interested parties heard and now nobody can ask them otherwise or disprove it. Hell, they even did it to Koko the fucking gorilla! But still...), most cases are not malicious or conspiratorial in nature, just nurses in hospitals wanting to give the patient's family a nice flowery sounding phrase to end off on a good note, because very commonly the patient will say some real Last Words^tm material like "Tell my family, I'll always be looking down on them and smiling!" And then follow it up 15 minutes later with "Aw fucking shit who farted in here?" and keel over, making the nurse decide it's better to leave the last bit out

Unless it's Florida with their Sunshine laws that allowed people to research these Covid deaths and find a guy who died in a motorcycle accident that also had Covid when he died so he was counted as a Covid death. And never forget that George Floyd didn't die from police brutality, he had Covid when he died so he was a covid death.

Might parasites also contribute to weird Japanese behavior?

A while back in this thread there was discussion of how various intestinal parasites can change mental patterns and sexual behavior, and raw seafood often has parasites/parasite eggs.
