When the whole Pizzagate investigation ramped up, and people started finding weird satanic/saturn imagery in pizza shops all across D.C., links to Marina Abramovic, spirit cooking, and Hollywood, the instagram of James Alefantis, the Haiti debacle with Hillary Clinton's aides trying to abduct children after the earthquake, and the like, I'll never forget the deluge of stories the mainstream media came out with to "debunk" Pizzagate. Out of the tens of thousands of Podesta emails that were released by Wikileaks, they picked the most innocuous ones and trumpeted those, as if that was all of what the emails contained, completely ignoring all of the other repugnant stuff internet anons had found through the Pizzagate investigation by that point, the media claimed it was completely "debunked", and called anyone who disagreed a "conspiracy theorist", and other pejoratives.
I already had a low opinion of the media by that point, but it was then that I realized how boldly they would lie, and what manner of utterly repulsive and evil crimes they would help to cover up. I was reading those emails with everyone else, and doing research with everyone else. I saw it with my own eyes, and I was still shocked how brazenly the media lied about it.
There's only one solution for those people, for everyone involved, for everyone that knew and said nothing, for everyone that helped to cover it up. They all deserve the same punishment.
Since you are familiar enough to know it's bullshit maybe you could explain how a small pizza shop owner was on the WaPo 50 most influential people in DC list.
That alone meets the preponderance test that something big was going on.
Not even to mention creepy instagrams, podesta vampire teeth, seemingly coded messages, the iconography, and so on.
Half of 'conspiracy theorists' will tell you that the moon landing hoaxery is a stupid theory, which means at least half of conspiracy theorists are wrong about one of the oldest conspiracy theories to exist.
But they all will claim they're always right.
I do not waste my time with conspiracy theory nonsense. It's a waste of your fucking life and it frankly doesn't matter. If the govenrment came out and said "yes the moon landing was fake", what changes? Literally nothing. Some fat dumb rednecks will go "SEE I WAS RIGHT" and then... nobody cares. "Oh wow, huh." It has no bearing on anything in reality today, considering 99% of the people involved with it are dead anyway.
And even if they weren't what are you gonna do? Throw Buzz Aldrin jail?
My personal position is that the vast majority of 'conspiracy theories' are themselves a conspiracy theory seeded by the government.
Look at what we "know" the government has done in secret... it's almost entirely psyop stuff. Governments have proven to be very bad at actual kinetic actions.
Now let's pretend you're an all-powerful intelligence agency, ostensibly tasked with protecting the interests of the United States. You have a huge demographic of the country that fits the following stereotype:
Profoundly low-IQ/uneducated/unqualified,
Heavily armed,
Routinely express extreme dissatisfaction with the government,
Regularly talk about militias, revolution, etc.
There's too many to really "do" anything with like throw them all in camps. What's the next best thing? Make them insane. Make them impossible to take seriously. Make them paranoid, make them toxic to be around.
Because they're typically extremely stupid, it's very easy to get them to believe fantastic stuff. For example, the whole 'space lasers are blowing up cities'. Has anyone who actually has qualifications and education and expertise ever chimed in with the "space lasers are real" thing? Nope. The entire Lahaina DEW thing was started by a fucking real estate agent babbling stupid shit about blue roofs.
The conspiracy theorist fringe group is entirely impotent. They're too paranoid to organize, because they call everything and everyone a fed plot.
Look at how EASILY they all fell for "Patriot Front are feds" narrative. This narrative was invented and pushed by 'influencers' on the internet. Not only is there is no evidence, but "PF are feds" is such a ridiculous psyop that the brainwashed imbeciles who believe it literally can not even tell you what Patriot Front has ever even done that is bad.
The best I have ever gotten was "they make MAGA look bad". Do you think MAGA has ever needed any help at all to 'look bad'? January 6th made MAGA look worse than Patriot Front ever could have hoped.
Patriot Front hands out pamphlets and marches in silence. They protested LGBTQ faggotry in Idaho and got arrested for it. That's the sum total of their actions. What about this 'looks bad'?
Think about this: MKULTRA is real, but conspiracy theorists will effectively insist that they are 100% immune to MKULTRA psyops.
Think about this: Conspiracy theory 'threatens' the powers that be, but you can freely talk about conspiracy theory on pretty much every single major platform, and be a prominent conspiracy theorist and nothing happens to you.
Think about this: The 'conspiracy theory' that took (kind of) Alex Jones out was Sandy Hook. That was the only one. Why just Sandy Hook? One could argue that out of all the conspiracy theories, that means that Sandy Hook was the only one that was actually a real event without a conspiracy, OR it could mean that out of all the conspiracy theories, Sandy Hook was the only one that was a real conspiracy and the rest were not.
...
A lot of powerful people simply do not care what conspiracy theorists think, and it's time to ask questions about that and whether or not that means there's any point to wasting your time on conspiracy theories, especially ones that are decades old and at this point can not and never will be 'proven'.
Honestly, I used to love conspiracy theories. So much insanity, all hinged in the idea that people who are bad at their jobs are somehow good at don't ng evil stuff.
Now we're finding out how much of that is true. When they admitted aliens were real, and we've gone road tripping with them , just to hide another messed up state secret... I'm sort of wondering if they even know what their job title actually is.
The vast majority of 'conspiracy theories' that gain traction the loudest are idiotic things like space lasers blowing up 0.02% of Los Angeles because something something 15 minute cities. They said the same shit about Lahaina except it never happened, and the Hawaiian government actually took measures to stop investment firms from buying up the land.
USAID money laundering is in fact a "conspiracy theory" but it's not sexy. It's also pretty fucking mundane and it's the kind of shit that everybody on the planet for all of history has engaged in all the time: the corruption of politics and fraud by way of money. The fucking Roman Empire had this same goddamn shit happening.
Compare that to "HAARP caused an ice storm in Texas one time to make Republicans look bad" or some shit. How many people who talk about HAARP are aware that that theory was literally invented to just sell a book? The guy who wrote it (I could look him up but I don't care) never had any kind of leaked emails, or technical documents, or did any sort of high-level analysis of the technology. He literally just made it the fuck up. HAARP, in fact, is run by the University of Alaska or Anchorage or whatever, and you can rent time on it. Has any conspiracy theorist actually gone to HAARP and invested any research into it?
Fuck no, that requires you to have an education beyond driving a dump truck. It's easier for the poor, stupid, lazy CT crowd to just bitch and whine on the internet.
Remember Gary Webb? The guy who 'broke the Iran/Contra scandal'? How many are aware that Gary Webb didn't 'break' the scandal until after it was public knowledge outed by congress? And he "was killed" years and years after he wrote his book? So they killed this guy to 'cover up' a scandal that already was exposed, and they waited until after he published his book, which you can still buy today?
Remember Michael Hastings? The guy who 'uncovered the truth about Iraq'? How many are aware that Michael Hastings not only was doing Obama's dirty work and got a beloved general removed from duty (a general who was openly critical of the Iraq war), but everything he wrote was, like Gary Webb, written after the public already knew the Iraq war was bullshit? How many are aware that the Iraq Dossier had never been covered up and openly involved the Blair government, and nobody there was killed for it? So they killed this guy to 'cover up' a scandal that already was exposed, and they waited until after he published his book, which you can still buy today?
Conspiracy theory is fucking gay. It has the same effect on the world as being 40 years old and still insisting Santa Claus is real: nobody cares, and it doesn't matter. Get a real hobby and focus on the future instead of continuing to piss away your life on decades-old faggotry that nobody will ever care about.
Because otherwise you might have to start admitting a lot of other "conspiracies" are true, you fucking coward.
The amusing thing being this statement makes it sound like they aren't normally reasonably informed, so the memes write themself.

Then an actor shot the place up, but only ended up hitting the hard drive in there, the one thing a pizzagate believer wouldn't want to hit.
mmmhmmm

I mean some conspiracy theories are pretty stupid…
Who here is willing to defend the thesis that there is no conspiracy theory that's stupid?
Half of 'conspiracy theorists' will tell you that the moon landing hoaxery is a stupid theory, which means at least half of conspiracy theorists are wrong about one of the oldest conspiracy theories to exist.
But they all will claim they're always right.
