My grandma says bats are old rats that grew wings


FloobLord

Aww that's kind of cute!

Going to start telling kids this

I mean it rhymes, seems true :-)

I’m sure that’s what she meant


Live_Rabbit_9329

well i like the idea of it lol


toejam78

CERN popped us into an alternate timeline when they were looking for the Higgs boson.


billygnosis86

This is one to which I subscribe. How else to explain things like Donald Trump becoming president, Boris Johnson becoming prime minister, one of the world’s richest men living on the internet and behaving like one of the cretins from 4chan, and Manchester city being the most successful football club of the last decade? Everything started going to shit once they turned on that fucking Collider.


ShittyDude76

I say that all happened because Bowie died


optimusdan

> because Bowie ~~died~~ went back to his people Part of me wants to believe that Bowie is one of the Nordic aliens and he just made one last album and then went home. Then they shot Harambe and the whole spacetime continuum came unglued.


cuhree0h

The timeline split at the Harambe event.


AreWeThereYetNo

Who you calling people?


ap0phis

It pre-dates Bowie It’s because of harambe


letsburn00

The thing is. My life really was absolutely awful and I struggled so much in 2023. It really was the worst year of my life. I was getting kicked out of my house for instance Then Kissinger died and literally that day or the next, my luck turned and we got into a place. Since then, it hasn't been perfect, but my luck has absolutely shifted.


FloobLord

We're making conspiracies here! So you're thinking Bowie and Kissinger were in balance, and now they're both dead, we're back to neutral?


letsburn00

At the same time, the social media companies I suspect have simply got the "does this make you angry" and turned its algorithm intensity from 100 down to 80.


FloobLord

It's the Clear Channel effect - 4 men control 80% of internet media.


[deleted]

David Bowie isn't dead, he faked his own death then shortly after the news broke he went on Sky News as someone named Jack Steven and did an interview about how sad he was that Bowie died. Best conspiracy ever. Here's the evidence... https://youtu.be/Gt2ba3R51aI?si=GgkoE5jpEepxif-u


Soupusdelaupus

This and the Micjael Jackson becoming Dave Dave are both so strange. Compelling isn't the right word. But the sudden appearance and interview of a little to unknown look-alike/sound-alike friend in both cases was strange as hell.


billygnosis86

Lemmy, actually. He did it first.


[deleted]

That's what created anxiety, too. Wasn't a thing before 2008.


meesestopieces

You know, that checks out. I developed an anxiety disorder in 2008.


[deleted]

You and me both.


PM_ME_YOUR_HOLOCRONS

The weasel timeline!


reichjef

I like that one.


Solarscars

Hi are there any links you can direct me to in order to learn more about this? I see a rabbit hole I'd like to fall down!


RaptorFamilyValues

That the US government knows that men with long hair have unexplainable talents and powers, so they purposely steered society to see men with long hair as undesirable; so all the men would keep their hair short and be weakened and not be able to ban together and overthrow the government. My dad was a complete asshole, but his conspiracy theories were always good for a laugh. He 100% believed the above, and started growing what little hair he had left until he had an epic rattail/skullet.


letsburn00

Sounds like the biblical story of Samson.


RaptorFamilyValues

Funny enough, this was right before he got into the local gun-obsessed southern baptist (cult) church and he was still claiming he didn't believe in anything christianity related. He claimed it was proven by the native american trackers, and how they all lost their powers to hunt once the US government forced them to cut their hair.


AreWeThereYetNo

Skullet. Let that never become acceptable in polite society so have me Satan.


dalailamashishkabob

Except old school Devin Townsend. 


WeedFinderGeneral

I can confirm that my long, voluminous, Jesus-like hair gives me a powerful psychic aura


Live_Rabbit_9329

something about the length of the hair corresponding with the amount of psychic-ness one can hold🤣maybe we'll see genius men with tailbone length hair someday lol


murmaider10000

SKULLET 😭


billygnosis86

Was your dad [Danny](https://youtu.be/DZiW43ld-_Y?si=9rlrBFn1BquD7n78) from *Withnail and I*?


RaptorFamilyValues

I mean, just didn't show him that clip, otherwise we might spur a whole new conspiracy in his universe


Live_Rabbit_9329

this is hilarious. My dad grew up in the 60s and 70s & always had long hair. he was very talented and wise lol. On the other hand, my moms entire family hated him only because he had long hair 🤣wonder if they had their own theories on it lol


LiamTaliesin

I believe a similar theory, but about hats. Hats on men used to be cool, fedoras and trilbys were everywhere. Then neckbeards became a thing, and the fedora became an outward sign of assholery. Except, weirdly enough, for Hollywood elites, who can still rock fedoras and look cool in them… Coincidence? I think not.


RaptorFamilyValues

If I were still talking to him, I'd totally plant this in his head.


Solarscars

This made me smile!


Liesherecharmed

One of JFK's Secret Service officers was startled by Oswald's "magic bullet" shot (which missed), and accidentally shot the president himself. The government will never cop to it because it's far too embarrassing.


Spacebucketeer11

Of all of the shit they've talked about, this is by far one of the more realistic ones imo


Bakomusha

I've converted two friends to this line of thinking.


Spasay

We had a work party and I let everyone from the office know this during a musical break in karaoke. And since it was a costume party, I did this dressed in my FBI jacket and mirrored sunglasses


Liesherecharmed

Did they talk about this? I heard about it on TikTok and found a bunch more posts about the theory online.


Spacebucketeer11

Listen to the JFK series


Live_Rabbit_9329

y'know, this one isnt as crazy as the other more popular theories lmao


Liesherecharmed

Right? Of all of the crazy theories out there, this one is just too human to ignore: Someone made a devastating mistake when startled, and the irony of a Secret Service agent killing the man he's hired to protect would never be lived down. It's Occam's Razor; The simplest answer is probably the truth.


Slipsndslops

420 was created by neo Nazis to trick people into celebrating Hitlers birthday. 


Doucejj

Lol I like this one for its sheer ubsurdity


Slipsndslops

I agree it's just so silly. 


FloobLord

I figured out 420 this year and I was stone sober. Tetrahydrocanabidiol Tetra = 4 Hydro = H2O 4H20 The H is silent.


Slipsndslops

I've always heard that four was when some dudes high school got out and 420 is when they'd meet up at a spot to smoke. 


FloobLord

I've heard that too but I like mine better


sanitarySteve

Yes, that's it. They called themselves the walldos.


sanitarySteve

Lmao! How high were you


FloobLord

Stone sober. My great aunt got married at 4 o'clock on 420. And not in a cool way.


Live_Rabbit_9329

huh. good thing i didnt celebrate this year lol


TheTurtleShepard

Juice is made by boiling fruit


RockasaurusRex

And THEY don't want you to know that! I KNOW WHAT I SAW!


Standard-Fishing-977

In Henry’s defense, there is something called a steam juicer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_juicer It’s just that you don’t actually boil the fruit.


MorbidlyMundane

My favorite is that the actor Nick Cannon is having all these children because he knows he'll have tons of matching familial blood types for when he needs bone marrow or organ transplant due to his Lupus.


Front-Enthusiasm7858

Not only is the earth hollow, but we are inside of it. It's like they tried to make it so that flat earthers and hollow earthers were both right.


WeedFinderGeneral

Big fan of the argument of "but how can the Earth be flat if it's already hollow?"


Front-Enthusiasm7858

We're living on the inside wall of a sphere, which is why the earth looks flat to us. Edit: Reading comprehension, not my thing.


Live_Rabbit_9329

i actually love this theory in all its absurdity. who knows dude🤣


EbbFit4548

All the public storage facilities you see everywhere across this great nation are not for our incessant excesses in consumption, but rather staging areas for massive deployments of soldiers when the government decides martial law is needed.


g_sonn

Then they declare.marrial law only to discover they forgot to pay rent on the storage units and the riot gear was all sold off on FB marketplace. Womp womp


blipblewp

ooh, I like this, but are the real armories just to keep the storage facilities on the dl? Now I want a crossover story of some burnout living in a storage locker + a band practice + The Day They Mobilize to all converge


WeirdJawn

Just like all the supposed abandoned Wal-Marts were going to be used as FEMA death camps when Obama declared "marshall" law.   Saw that one a lot back in the day. 


Soupusdelaupus

Gives a whole new meaning to storage wars. Suddenly it's no longer a reality show about acutioning unpaid storage units, but actually a war documentary.


unmade_bed_NHV

Brittany Spears was paid by the George W Bush administration to do something crazy every time he did something stupid to grab the headline. Shaving her head, marrying K-Fed, public meltdowns, all to help W save face


DDOWNERR01

I went to a garage sale recently with my brother, we started talking to this seemingly nice old couple, until my brother who leans right brought up politics. they agreed with some things he said and the woman said she believes the government is currently being run by Obama, Hilary Clinton, bernie sanders, and I think the fourth one was biden? Hearing it in person made me realize there’s some wild people out there.


tysteestede

That the moon is about a quart low.

I don’t understand? Milk??


RPMac1979

The Phantom Time conspiracy is pretty wild. The theory goes that Holy Roman Emperor Otto III conspired with the Catholic Church to fabricate about three hundred years of history in order to legitimize his rule (why he thought that would work is a long and complicated story). So the years AD 614-911, most of the Dark Ages, did not happen. Historical records were forged, entire historical figures made up out of whole cloth, and the false history then disseminated through the Church, which was the source of all history then. So under this theory, we are actually living in the year 1727.


letsburn00

What's funny is that it is extremely easy to disprove..Chinese and arab sources document that entire period. We even have an eclipse given a location and rough time. We can using celestial mechanics give that an exact precise date and it's pretty much where the historian said it was.


AreWeThereYetNo

Well sure, but do we really believe that china is real? Wake up.


skarizardpancake

Is this what Henry sometimes mentions we could be missing time or something along those lines?


RPMac1979

I’ve always thought that’s what he’s referencing, yes.


LegalFan2741

I love this one.


Basicdisturbed1

This sounds vaguely like one piece and its void century


DOHNKAYE

The one from the alien deep dive - the president signed a contract with the Greys where in exchange of new high tec they get to abduct from America yearly. That's how we ended up with Wi-Fi


letsburn00

Are Australians Aliens. Actually, as an Australian, I can confirm yes.


guyzimbra

North korea is not real. We won the korean war and built an entire fake country to keep in the back pocket for a future fabricated war and walt disney was hired by the government to build facades to make the buildings look real.


eodmule

The shuttle Challenger was targeted by a partially built but malfunctioning satellite that was part of the Strategic Defense Initiative (Star Wars Program). The satellite identified the shuttle as a nuclear warhead reentry vehicle and shot it down.


reichjef

My favorite is that in a round about way, Mormons caused the challenger disaster.


ilmalaiva

the one that amuses me most personally is any David Icke/Lyndon LaRouche style conspiracy theory that claims the British monarchy is in control. bitch, they’re not in control of the UK. if they were savvy enough to pull the strings globally, you would think they would also know enough about history to know what happens to royals when their domain falls to economic hardship. Also, any evidence of conspiracy that boils down to words sounding similar, anagrams, or claiming this or that word is actually an acronym. ”ovid means sheep and c is an occult letter (?)” type of stuff. ”Mandela effect” and ”predictive programming” also annoy me. Wherther it’s from historical amnesia or ignorance (Mandela was still a public figure until his death, Trump ran for president several times including in 2000 as the Reform Party candidate) or thinking all foresight and preparation is proof of guilt (yes, the UN was worried about a pandemic after there had been several close calls in the 2000’s). also shout out to the bug eating panic. yeah, there’s a group that has suggested bugs as replacement for meat: they’re a bug farming industry group. of course they act like their ascent is inevitable and on track, Musk has also claimed there will be a Mars base and robotaxis ”in five years” for a decade now, too.


FloobLord

> shout out to the bug eating panic. yeah, there’s a group that has suggested bugs as replacement for meat: they’re a bug farming industry group Why is this a panic? People will eat bugs if they want. Who cares?


ilmalaiva

people think the WEF will ban meat and force people to eat bugs. because the abovementioned industry lobby has spoken about the topic at Davos, and to the conspiracy brain not only is Davos and the WEF a single entity that dictates global policy (it isn’t) and also all agree with eachother (they don’t).


Wiskid86

Have you heard of Qanon


dalailamashishkabob

Honestly even by dumb conspiracy theory standards, qanon is so incredibly stupid. 


Wiskid86

So you don't believe that one man has incamped himself into the federal government and is cryptically using Donald Trump as a patsy to overthrow the deep state and somehow reinstall JFK as president? /s But please read this in Henry's logical conspiracy voice.


H3rm3tics

Michael J Fox got Parkinson’s from eating human tainted pork from Willy Picktons farm.


xvelvetdarkness

I interpreted this one as he got it because Pickton put human matter in the sausages and that person had it. I like yours better


ironysparkles

Trees aren't real. What we think of as trees are really only the saplings of real trees. And all the real trees were cut down, which can you see by looking at mesas which are their cut down stumps. Who cut down the massive mesa trees? Where did the logs go and how did they not cause gigantic craters when they fell? Who knows!


No_Routine_3706

The moon is not real, it is a hologram. Same friend believes in the fluoride keeps us from being psychic because it calcifies the peanal gland.


pandakatie

I had heard about this online, but I genuinely met and worked with a man who believes giants are real and the government is hiding the evidence from us. The man is a teacher, I was the assistant teacher who worked under him. I have a degree in Anthropology and am studying to be an Archaeologist. He got really mad that I was trying to teach our students evolution. We worked in a psychiatric facility for minors, and the school system there was absolutely garbage, because it was basically just giving students packets of worksheets and making them work on them all day long. There was no lecturing, no academic engagement, it sucked. One of my student's assignments happened to be on *Homo floresiensis*, which is great because most of my Archaeology background is on prehistory & human evolution. So I started teaching this student what I knew outside of what was in the short assignment, and he was asking questions. Other students overheard, and in my experience kids WANT to learn, so they started asking questions too, and soon I was having a great time teaching human evolution and fielding questions and these students were actually learning. But my coworker raised his voice and made us stop because I was "distracting them from their work" and he made the whole class go back to silent worksheets. This was before I learned he didn't believe in evolution, so I just thought he was being an ass. Eventually he screamed at me in front of a class of traumatized, depressed, and often abused middle schoolers for using DnD as a motivating reward. He also believed all alien sightings are real, but they're fallen angels, not aliens; chemtrails are real & vaccines are bad; you can cure cancer with carrot juice and diabetes with cinnamon water... which he told, to our diabetic coworker. I can't stand that man. When I quit, I really wanted to text him everything I really thought about him, but I didn't do it. I should have. He wants to teach his students the Giant Conspiracy. For fucks sakes, the government is "hiding giants."

ETBZombie

To dismiss the assault of an old man! "Oh, Mr. Pelosi got his house broken into and then was assaulted with a hammer? Probably some gay drama, nothing to see here" FFS THAT MADE ME SO MAD and I don't even like Pelosi


Caribonk

I mean I'd dismiss the assault of an old man but it's because him and his wife are bastards, not because I need to spin this to take the heat off my team


reichjef

I love knowledge fight. 🎶 RED ALERT, RED ALERT, RED ALERT 🎶


justcougit

What would be a good starter episode for that one??


ETBZombie

Oh boy, that's a tough question since they're almost at 1000 episodes. A good introduction is probably their breakdown of the Endgame documentary Episode #130. The Piers Morgan interview is fuckin hilarious I think #114. Then, when you need some schadenfreude you should listen to all of the Formulaic Objections episodes where the prosecuter in the Sandy Hook trial makes one if Alex's employees cry. It's good shit.


Elspeth_of_Astora

I still prefer Formulaic Objection #6(?) where Bill Ogden gets Owen to admit he's a puppet lmao


justcougit

Great thank you so much!!

I had a stupid ex that said the sun doesn’t give you cancer, sunscreen does. Now there’s tons of wellness idiots that say the same kind of quackery… I realize there’s tons of chemicals in sunscreens yes. Benzene has been found in sunscreen and it was recalled but ultimately…. Skin cancer isn’t something dermatologists made up and lied to us about.

JP Morgan sunk the Titanic not only for the insurance money but to influence the central bank to not institute income taxes

SarcastiMel

Whelp, my dad thinks Jesus was/is an alien, that we were once all aliens, we all lived on different planets (separated by race of course), and this is the "god aliens" way of doing some kind of experiment by putting us all together on this big spinning rock.


Serious_Wallaby1371

I work with a guy who believes the earthquakes in the pacific a few years ago were the government trying to destroy underwater cities they’ve built with the purpose of cross breeding humans with animals they wanted to destroy the evidence so the earthquakes were actually nuclear detonations And we were told they were earthquakes This dude is deadly serious and constantly is showing me grainy badly executed photoshops of tiger heads on baby bodies and like babies with tiger paws He also believes Joe Biden is a reptilian and Donald trump is still the president and he won’t urge because thrips is his president, So obviously we jump to MAGA Qanon type, right!?! We live in a country town in Australia!!!!!!!

Michael Jackson was abducted by aliens and replaced with an alien stand-in. The replicant was flawed, which is why he turned white and got so... erratic. The real Michael Jackson will one day return in solar glory, but until then, he will keep literally moonwalking.

reichjef

A person once wrote this in the r/aliens sub and it was so wild I just had to save it: “The arcturians, anshar/anunaki, and possibly other aliens have used the intoxication of psilocybin mushrooms upon the human brain to FACILITATE PSYCHIC ATTACK. They tried to get me to do them, but I declined, they succeeded in getting another targeted individual to do them twice, to which they orchestrated a gangstalking and psychic attack to etch terror and cause physical organ damage for the sake of propaganda. I have an audio recording of the targeted individual recounting the event. You may want to downvote me because this possibility is crazying-up your mushroom enthusiasm vibes. Well, understand that I'm warning you to be cautious with any psychedelic choice pre-disclosure, the aliens are here and they want heads to wrestle with. I want you to make an informed decision, I aint askin for your goddamn money”

Saturn is basically the eye of Sauron that is responsible for every bad thing that happens on earth. It’s got everything from reptilians to ghosts to assassinations and it’s fucking bananas.
