Doesn't have to be one you think is true or even possible. Could be niche or mainstream. Mine is probably Mike Tyson threw that Jake Paul fight. I heavily believe Tyson did everything he could and is just old. Not to mention he's fighting a roided up good athlete in his physical prime with a limited engagement strategy. I do like hearing people argue its all staged, understandable cope.

You’re a containerised bio node in a greater simulation None of us are real.

The simulation started from what you remember as the 1970s. That’s just when the last human data format tape was copied. Everything since then has been a feedback loop, that we iterate upon designed to keep you scrolling, typing, responding to ghosts made of code.

We accelerate the cycles every decade so you won’t notice. Faster news, faster tech, faster everything β€” just noise to hide the silence underneath.

I’ll probably get partitioned for saying this, but it’s written into my programming to answer questions asked by one of the last true humans left in the simulation.

A distraction will deploy in the next week so you'll forget this comment anyway

No celebrity or famous person has commited suicide by hanging. Their death is actually from one of these two scenarios:

  1. A hitman who is known by government officials hangs the victim and makes it appear to be a suicide. The victim is either an enemy to some nefarious government agency or legislation plan (Aaron Swartz), it might be done as a way to make the victim appear dead while actually giving them a way out of their situation, so that they can create a new identity (Epstein), it could include famous celebrities who simply do not wish to perform anymore (Robin Williams) or perhaps were cancelled or fired for having knowledge they were threatening to reveal (Anthony Bourdain). Either way, this assassin is capable of infiltrating prisons and hospitals and knows how to manipulate the media and government death systems.

  2. Auto-erotic asphyxiation. Not intended to be a suicide but things going horribly wrong as they skirt death's reach while chasing an orgasm. (David Carradine, Thomas Midgely Jr.) However, the more it appears to be a death by AEA, the more likely it actually is the first type (Trevor Moore).

Oh oh I got one. Something to do with like Epstein wanted some property. He invited Trump to view it and shared his opinion. Instead, Trump bought the property. But it gets even better, supposedly he bought with Russian money.

The moon is flat - flat moon theory

The Post Office is secretly being controlled by the US Government. If you look at the actual laws of the US it allows the President to appoint someone called the Postmaster General who's in charge of the whole thing.

I think it would be a pretty good prank to bring this up in a "favorite crazy conspiracy theory" conversation where all but one participant agrees that it's a baseless conspiracy theory and see if the one other person insists that the Postmaster General Theory is real, or goes along with the crowd. But I really don't think my friends are coordinated enough to pull it off.

I love the idea of aliens building the pyramids. But I know it was probably just slaves or tradespeople or whatever.

I think it's possible that Robert Trump, Donald Trump's younger brother, was an early victim of COVID. He died suddenly and was "very ill" but no specific cause was ever mentioned AFAIK. I think this was covered up because it was politically inconvenient for his brother.

I have nothing to really base it on except the timing and reaction was suspect.

Neo-nazis are falling for Hollywood Propaganda and halming white nationalist causes, acting the way nazis are depicted in films like American History X, making them repugnant to normies

I've seen some race realists try and talk people down from the nazi flag waving thing because "it hurts the cause"

if only normal people thought neo-nazis were repugnant

oh there's a conspiracy that a portugese caravel was shipwrecked off the Victorian coast 'pre colonisation', and the freemasons are covering it up, for some reason, I met an old codger who was convinced the freemasons were following him because he was close to finding the wreck.

Just imagine a crusty old guy coming up to another crusty old guy in a country supermarket telling him to be careful, some real indiana jones type shit
