Conspiracy theorists have always been among my favourite people in the politics-related sphere of the Internet. This is a thread to discuss them (and perhaps make up our own ones). Edited by Jinfengopteryx, Apr 13 2018, 09:23 AM.

I remember when I was younger, I believed the govt was trying to depopulate us. I made up a theory that there was this “secret police” that went around killing people that were the least likely to impact other people’s lives. |

I used to believe in Antichrist-related conspiracy theories, that 9/11 was an inside job and that Germany is an US occupied country. I'm right now trying to write a conspiracy that involves the cover-up of aliens whose mere presence shatters our sanity, though I don't have many details yet. |

You’re trying to make your own conspiracy? For fun or to spread rumors? |

For a story, but it would of course be great if I made it believable enough for some people to actually believe it. |

My "favorite" conspiracies are the ones about the faked moon landings and the autism-causing vaccines. That evolution and global warming are lies are amusing too, but I had always thought of them more as people just being ignorant and people denying the evidence for them rather than as conspiracy theories. That may just be a stigma on my part. |

I was also not sure as to whether to include them, but the power and vileness those people attribute to left-wing atheists is very reminiscent of typical conspiracy theories. |

IMO all but one or two of the above are crap (although a third--jews rule the world--has at least an element of truth to it i.e. a big exaggeration not an outright fantasy). I reject all as stated except UFOs (and possibly ancient astronauts). The people who believe UFOs are real or have encountered them are far more credible and numerous than flat earth or fake moon landing nitwits.

Are we answering to "favorite" as in which one we most agree with or which one is most amusing? |

In that case, Ancient Astronauts is most amusing to me. I remember watching "Ancient Aliens" or "Alien Files" with my brother to laugh at what was said. (I'm surprised "Planet X as Nibiru" isn't an option. While it's hilariously stupid, it also triggers me because my own uncle believes that sh!t.) |

I deliberately left it vague so that you can choose. |

"The world is run by reptiles" takes the cake for humor, lol.
