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.
My favorite conspiracy theory is that the stock market serves a real economic purpose that isn’t just “cryptocoin bullshit, but before they were invented”
That Avril Lavigne is dead. From her second album onwards it’s been Melissa, a woman initially hired as s lookalike by her record company for things like meet-and-greets. When Avril died, the record company covered it up in order to keep making money.
I love it because:
- it’s so blatantly nonsense
- Lavigne has very distinctive teeth and the idea of finding an exact lookalike itself is incredibly unlikely
- people believe it anyway
- there’s all kind of videos comparing live footage and how different her signing voice is
- some people** really** believe it
- it was started by a guy on his blog with an explicit statement at the start that it wasn’t true and his intent was to demonstrate how easy it was to create a conspiracy theory…

This reminds me of the guy who faked a study that supposedly claimed chocolate could help to lose weight, he put a lot of red flags in it, and it was still not only turned into headlines of numerous magazines, but was actually even published in a scientific journal that claims it does extensive peer review.
Unfortunately, this study is still referred to as of today. People still find claims that chocolate with high cocoa content can work as a weight-loss accelerator.
I have to say, that part about the teeth kinda sounds almost as crazy as the conspiracy. I do believe you, but it sounds nuts.
She’s a vampire
Sounds like the Paul Is Dead theory. Which is totally real btw, no doubts about it.
Honestly? My real conspiracy theory is that the the fappening wasn’t an Apple iCloud leak, it was a NSA leak.
In 2014 a whole bunch of celebrities nude photos got put up anonymously on 4chn and reddit. The FBI ended up blaming a guy from Cleveland. But during the same time the NSA was operating under a 6 hop rule for sweeping cell phones and operators at Langley were notorious for copying off photos from random cellphones that they could access too.
The 6 hops rule let the NSA guys get a secret warrant to remotely search a phone if someone is a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact of a contact who’s a suspected terrorist. That is a hell of a lot of people and I’m sure a lot of celebrities.
So I’m sure the guys at the NSA were collecting and then trading various celebrities nude photos, and one of them was stupid enough to start posting them for clout on 4chn. I believe that they were disciplined and that put a stop to it but they had to find someone to take the heat and they got Apple to do that.I’m surprised all the photos weren’t just Kevin Bacon
The National Sociopath Agency being sociopath? Surprised Pikachu Face
Charlie Kirk was killed to distract from the Epstein files and pour some gas on the hating libs fire
The info they divulged that CK said he was no longer going to tow the Israel line, and then got murdered a few days later
That’s a conspiracy? I thought it was generally accepted as truth and part of the risks of working with that one person…
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.
The jews control Israel.
The Anti-vax movement was started and funded by Big Pharma, because there is more money to be made in treating a disease than there is in preventing it.
You’re half right. Andrew Wakefield, the father of modern anti-vaccine sentiment, wrote a bogus study with horrible methodology against the MMR vaccine due to a desire to sell separate alternative measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines. Brian Deer explains it best in his 2004 documentary “MMR: What They Didn’t Tell You”.
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
That one Reddit post about George W Bush being a werewolf.
I am very intrigued
My new fave is that Charlie Kirk was killed by an Israeli explosive put in his microphone
The secret service accidentally killed JFK after the magic bullet. It explains the unlikely 4 shots from Oswald. It explains why the kill shot acted differently than the magic bullet. It explains why there were reports of the smell of gun smoke on the ground.
But most importantly it explains how the conspiracy could actually be kept a secret. If a secret service gun delivered the killing shot and that became public knowledge, the secret service wouldn’t exist today. It’s a fuck up so collosal it actually has the potential to keep everyone’s mouths shut. It would have been an even greater embarrassment on the world stage at the absolute peak of tension in the cold war.
I could see a bunch of government men in shady rooms agreeing to keep the secret, the president was already shot. He probably would have died already from his wounds. Oswald was technically correct when he called himself a Patsy.
for some reason people pretend like it’s impossible to keep a big secret under wraps…
the nazi’s kept their death camps secret for years…
thousands of people across the world were/are complicit in covering up a pedophile/rape pipeline that encompasses pretty much the entire US/Israel/Western “elite”, from government officials, various media-oligarchs, actors, business…kept that underwraps for decades…
when you control all the media outlets you can control everything anyone ever sees/hears
The unfortunate paradox of using examples of secrets is that by definition that secrecy failed. A completely successful conspiracy never even becomes a theory.
descibed in detail in the book Mortal Error by Bonar Menninger, a sharpshooter and ballistics expert

JFK´s head just did that.

There´s the conspiracy theory that Justin Trudeau is actually Fidel Castros son. Trudeau´s parents actually met with Castro, one meeting was about 9 months before his birth. They also look eerily similar.

The reason the Dems aren’t generally putting up a real fight against the GOP is because Israel is threatening to cut off their AIPAC funding if they fight Trump.
99% of plastic recycling programs are useless and are staged to make people feel good about themselves.
This isn’t a conspiracy at all. Plastic recycling was originally driven by plastic producers, to shift the blame for pollution away from themselves. Basically, it was a way for the producers to go “it’s not our fault the world is full of plastic. It’s the consumer’s fault for failing to recycle all of it!” They saw the inevitable plastic mountain on the horizon, and took steps to ensure they weren’t going to be blamed for it.
That’s not a conspiracy LOL, there’s plenty of greenwashing around that costs more in environmental effects than if we’d just partied like it’s 1977.
I already believe it haha, please enable my conspiratorial ways more
Only thing that is profitable (read the only thing capitalists are interested in recycling) is aluminum and maybe glass.
Yeah, over well over 25 years ago, like I was a child and thought adults knew everything…my uncle said all of your recycling goes to China and gets burnt. So I reckon that this one is definitely, undoubtedly true.
And make a little money on the side.
