I noticed people like conspiracy theory drama and everytime something happens someone has a counter explanation.The internet has made it possible for people to say whatever they want,i like those conspiracists as some are funny but joining their theories cult is where i draw the line because some are borderline mad and deranged people.

It's funny because a lot of "conspiracy theories" ended up being true

The best lies are one that have a hint of truth.

any rumur that circulates enough becomes a new truth while the original truth might be ignored.

Now apply both at the same time to both those teorys and to eny news or propaganda you hear, and you SHOULD get a headache at minimum. Your welcome!

Oh dear. I know of a good few conspiracy theories, but every single last one of them risks turning this into a political discussion that might get the mods irritated.
Lol you might want to keep that one,we don't want mods on our arses

This days the lies are more truthful in the internet, especially when everywhere you look it's propaganda.

Not only do they exist, there is lot of them and there is subdivision group that actually believe earth is only 4000 years old.

I mean believe in your religion or whatsoever but really? There are human civilizations older than that lol

If you blame everyone who says otherwise with heresy, no one will remain to tell otherwise, hence no one can tell stuff were real before the point. Your wrong i win mentality instead of i proved it more i win mentality.

Disclaimer, i dont have enything agenst eny of the several more well known religions, only agenst blindly following em and not thinking like some seem to do for most if not all of em.

Unfortunately I live with one. It's so bad she thinks 5G and vaccines are evil or whatever. And absolutely everything has some hidden meaning.
One of the crap youtube shorts that pops up on her notifications is trying to tell people the closing show of the olympics is a satanic ritual and that the ring they put was somehow a 'nazi' symbol.

Like no, not every 'circle with 4 lines coming out' is nazi symbolism. For that matter every conspiracy trying to make everything symbolic of evil conveniently forget the fact that a swastika never originally stood for nazi in the first place. It was a hindu symbol of prosperity for god's sake. Then it got rotated 45 degrees and you know the rest.

There is a theory. If you believe in one conspiracy theory, just one, you are normal. Doesn't matter how wild or crazy it is, if you believe in just one, you are ok. If you believe in more than one, that means you are batshit crazy.

Well boondocking in the southwest I encountered couple who believed themselves to be 'electrically sensitive', so would not take certain campsites as they were to close to power lines...

What if you entertain conspiracy theories but don't believe them?

This is not my theory, and I don't have PHD in conspiracy theories. I have to clarify this. As for your question, I don't know. Well, I guess it depends on definitions of these two words if we want a pseudo-scientific answer. But if we look at real life, it is obvious when a person believes in something or not. So the theory probably stays unchanged? As long as you believe in one only, you are sane.
