It’s interesting to see how many of these are American. I know it’s probably an American site, American politics are generally more followed, and QAnon has had an impact also. But it’s interesting to reflect on the seeming lack of localised conspiracies about British politics or issuesI think I maybe shared this last year when it was first made, but thought it worth sharing again as the thread begins.

Oh yeah, the creator is American (from Boston I think) so there’s a US focus for sure.It’s interesting to see how many of these are American.

I’m sure there are reasons for that, but you’d think with how independent conspiracy theorists are we wouldn’t just be limited to Meghan Markle’s children being dolls and the royals being lizards

it was quite the thing for a little whileI have recently heard about another conspiracy theory that I had been unaware of. Which is apparently, that people living in Canada have realised that their snow does not melt when someone puts fire to it, it actually burns instead.
Since I don’t live in Canada, myself, this is not one that I can test out. I have relatives in Canada but I can’t exactly ask them to - they will think I’m batshit.
Has anyone heard this one?
Ha, what? Are they getting mixed up with throwing boiling water and it freezes in mid-air? I've seen that happen. Seriously, a few videos were going around a while ago of people lighting snow with a lighter and it turning black. It's just an effect of using a lighter on it, nothing else. Just like a flame leaving black marks if it's too close to a wall.I have recently heard about another conspiracy theory that I had been unaware of.

Aww i was just going to comment about this! How can they claim to be "critical thinkers" and use fox news and Daily Mail as sources. Do they not see the irony in that?!It was me! What an honour…
Conspiracy theorists:
“Don’t believe anything the MSM says, it’s all lies! Wake up sheeple!”
Also conspiracy theorists:
“Read this New York Post article on Hunter Biden”
“Watch this Fox News piece on Ukraine”
“The Oscars!”
Taylor Hawkins is old news to CT-ists, it's Will Smith and Bruce Willis for the next couple of days.Aww i was just going to comment about this! How can they claim to be "critical thinkers" and use fox news and Daily Mail as sources. Do they not see the irony in that?!
I did actually post something on there earlier on in the week as i couldnt believe what i was reading about drug addiction, and as i have both personal and professional experience of addiction and recovery i was able to get my point across; and although it seemed to go down well (i even got some heart reactions!!!) i noticed the poster i quoted didnt reply to me.... funny that isnt it!!! But what do i know when Taylor Hawkins looked so well!!!! lol. Sorry, im not laughing at his death or addiction issues, only at the idea of someone who claims to be above us all in terms of intelligence and critical thinking skills thinking that because someone looks well then they cant possibly be addicted to anything. The mind boggles
Fact checkers are not to be believed apparently because they are funded by Pfizer.The clickable links thing is interesting. I hadn't even heard of half of these and now I feel ... weird
I saw something going around earlier about a "fact checking" site demonstrating that an alleged tweet by Klaus Schwab (sp?) claiming that home ownership was immoral is fake. I think of all CT the "Great Reset" is my least fave but it does kind of astound me how people have taken and run with that one
Oh gawd ... of course they are! That must be why they denied that Pfizer funded the Oscars to promote alopecia drugs. Isn't that what someone in Pfizer's back pocket would say?Fact checkers are not to be believed apparently because they are funded by Pfizer.
They’re saying the slap was staged to push the company’s alopecia drug.Oh gawd ... of course they are! That must be why they denied that Pfizer funded the Oscars to promote alopecia drugs. Isn't that what someone in Pfizer's back pocket would say?
