Lizard people wins the price, hands down.
“Everything will be alright.”
I feel like flat earthers might be the most insane one I’m familiar with - I don’t keep up with the conspiracy-verse though.
Dan Olson did a great video on flat earthers. With a mid-video twist on why you don’t see as much of them anymore as you used to
Production wise it’s one of my favorite video essays
What happened? Did a bunch of them fall off the edge?
I wish.
In case people don’t want to get spoiled:
spoiler
The essay theorizes that the people flocked to qanon
I feel like like the QAnon stuff swept up huge swaths of otherwise unconnected conspiracy theorists. Flat earth, chemtrails, aliens, all the “classic” conspiracies just kind of got co-opted and folded into the big crazy tent of insane people.
yup. that’s exactly what the second half of the video is about
It’s kind of a bummer. Aliens and Bilderbergers and Government Mind Control used to be fun little thought experiments to smoke a J and play what-if with your friends; but you can’t even bring that stuff up anymore without someone thinking you’re serious and bringing up adrenochrome or (((Globalists)))
This timeline sucks, I want to go back to when everyone knew the X-Files was a TV show and fascists kept their brainrot on AM radio.

I feel like QAnon keeps upping the ante on the term “unhinged”
when even The Onion doesn’t want to keep up with them
Qanon is like a clown car of unhinged conspiracy theories. Every time you think “Wow, that’s bananas what kind of blood lead levels do these people have to fall for this?” they trot out something even more deranged/racist/fascist.
JFK’s head just did that.
migrane is no joke
As in there was no shooter? That is unhinged
JFK’s head just doing that is a conspiracy cooked up by the CIA to downplay their involvement in his head head doing that
That proves we are in a simulation!
The admin just set $Earth_NA_US_POTUS_JFK.Body_Head.explode to $true in the console.
It’s not a conspiracy theory. Finland really doesn’t exist.
I mean, I can’t see it from here, so I have no choice but to believe you.
I’m sitting on it and I’m not 100% sure it exists.
Vladimir?
Not sure about Finland but New Zealand is often missing from maps which leads me to believe it doesn’t exists!
The maps without New Zealand are just the ones where the New Zealand foundation forgets to pay off the cartographers.
We like it that way

That Stalin was the “good guy”.
Well that was a rabbit hole
I only stuck my head in the and got the same feeling I did when I watched the first 30 mins of Lost. I stopped before going all in.
There’s nothing unhinged about Time Cube. It’s just so obviously true. 4 similtaneous rotations, 4 corner earth days. Circle times square.
Either you need to read it again, or else you’re part of the conspiracy of suppression.
Please be careful when making jokes, it may see harmless rubbish, but at least one person committed suicide due to their obsession with this stuff.
With Time Cube? I didn’t know that. You’re right, people who get really caught up in conspiracy theories can be vulnerable.
That there is an all powerful supreme being that demands our worship or else we will suffer for all eternity after our death.
Yeah. That’s the worst.
They used to hang out with flat earthers and earth centrics, but I’m guessing they had to cut out some of the crazy stuff to appeal to larger audience, with the less tangible stuff.
Phwoar watch you don’t cut yourself on that edge
What’s gonna happen, will your nonexistent god smite him?
Eric the God Eating Penguin already killed them all. We are safe.
Good old Eric.
My god is Islay cheddar
It doesn’t do much smite as persuade you to take statins
Thought terminating cliche. Used when you cant engage with someones argument.
Semantic stop signs, if you like.

Id have to go with the jews control everything theory from the racist perspective. They believe that the jews have infiltration top levels of western society for the sole intention of destroying the white race and creating an underclass of mindless golem that they can control.
I think people are confusing it with Hollywood. There are many jews in Hollywood and many Jewish traditions are seen in American movies.
I really don’t get the Nazi belief system.
- Some races are superior to others and naturally must rule
- Despite all persecutions, Jews are immensely powerful and secretly control the world
According to their own philosophy they should be willingly serving the superior race - Jews
The hated minority being inferior but also immensely powerful is a pretty standard feature of anti-minority world views of all kinds. It is pretty much required to justify the extreme actions they want to take against the minority.
I can explain how their nonsense ideology works, but it's really dumb and extremely racist and you might be better off not knowing
Are you sure?
The reasoning goes that certain races are more inclined towards physical strength while being mentally inferior, such that they can’t accomplish anything on their own but can contribute if “directed,” while Jewish people are the opposite, such that they can understand things and manipulate people, but not build or accomplish anything on their own. White people are supposed to be a sort of “happy medium,” not necessarily the smartest or the strongest but smart enough to figure things out with enough strength and gumption to follow through - the image being similar to the highly idealized capitalist innovator, building a company from the ground up with hard work and vision. In the Nazi worldview, white people’s fatal flaw is being too moral and kind, which Jews exploit by spreading socialist ideology, and which can prevent whites from taking action and exerting strength. So in the Nazi worldview, Jews control the world only because white people aren’t really trying hard enough, and because of that, conditions are declining because Jews only want to take over existing structures and not build anything new.
This worldview is obviously complete bullshit that exists to justify violence (whether organized by the state or street violence) against vulnerable people, because Nazis are cowardly bullies looking for someone to pick on to feel strong. It ignores (or glamorizes) the entire history of slavery and colonialism, and it makes sweeping generalizations about people based on idiotic stereotypes grounded in racist eugenics bullshit.
But it had appeal in Germany because it provided a simple explanation for why conditions were declining, and it allowed people to redirect feelings of frustration or grief into anger and hate - while at the same time dividing the working class and getting people to oppose left-wing reforms that would’ve eased their burdens. At the same time, it was amenable to existing power structures, because most of the people in positions of power were white, and kept their power in the transition to fascism, while at the same the Nazis could pretend to be enacting “socialist” policies by nationalizing minority-run businesses.
On the one hand, I hate that I even know what they believe, but I guess there’s some utility in knowing the enemy in order to better fight them and better predict their movements.
Fuck Nazis.
These people genuinely believe isreali mossad agents targeting their fourm with a psyops and demoralization campaigns. It’s very entertaining to observe.
There’s a decent chance that mossad did.
Just like the fbi, nsa,cia, kgb, and all the other alphabet soups
This is like the master conspiracy theory. Every other conspiracy theory just turns into this one after enough time
The Earth is flat! -> The Jews flattened the Earth!
One of my favourite historical ones was the John birch society saying Lyndon B. Johnson was a communist agent, who started the Vietnam war to help communists take over the USA.
The global wealthy elite being pedophiles conspiracy is unthinkably evil. It’s also unfortunately true. Epstein’s island proved it.
Can you please explain that? I thought the island proved it was true.
If you work hard and long hours for the company, you’ll advance in your career and become esteemed leader and collect rich rewards.
Man! Way to cast a dark cloud over an otherwise lovely morning.
I kid. That’s a good one!
Paul McCartney died in a car crash in 1966 and was replaced by a Canadian man the British government had kidnapped for that purpose. After extensive facial surgery he took on McCartney’s role and no one noticed it.
Apart from John Lennon who hid cryptic clues to Faul’s real identity and the real Paul’s fate in the lyrics of famous Beatles songs.
It’s true.
This is hilarious
Microsoft, the state of South Dakota, and the Freemasons have been infiltrated by the Unified Buttjones Imperial Court (UBIC), formed in 1834 by the merger of the Imperial Buttjones Society and the All-Ireland Industrial Arsing Federation. UBIC agents camouflage themselves as janitors, assistant product managers, or beagles, and spread an invisible green slime over toilet seats to infect the minds of their targets. Through this mental infiltration, they obtain control over the vazween or pony-flavored sector of the human soul, creating Inter-Vazween Buttjones Networks (IVBN) through repeated application of the Greater Invoking Pentacle of Pony Erotic Revelation (GIPPER). Using an apparatus constructed from illegal immigrants, UBIC uses the IVBN and GIPPER to insert bugs into Windows, Masonic initiations, and the Lewis & Clark State Recreation Area. Anyone who denies this obvious truth is a buttjones.
fubo is a buttjones. Dispatch and neutralize.
Oh, is this the new Scientology doctrine now?
