I believe that there’s a huge magnet of sorts in the core of earth that attracts a specific brand, BIC, to it.

The only two items that always go missing. Pens. Lighters.

Always BIC.

    Government members actually don’t care about people and just want to be elected to get more money and power. Yeah, I know it’s a silly one.

    In Star Wars Episode 1, George intentionally included many hints that something weird was happening with Jar Jar, but the public backlash against the character caused a rewrite of Episodes 2 and 3, including the specific introduction of Count Dooku. Jar Jar was supposed to be revealed as a Sith.

    Not even really a theory but a historically verifiable strategy used by the automakers, but Jaywalking was invented by car companies to put the blame on cyclists and pedestrians for getting killed by cars so that they could monopolize use of the public roads for cars and here we are over 100yrs later and vehicle collisions are like the number 2 leading cause of death in the country behind gun violence.

    At least the gun manufacturers didn’t steal public space out from under the feet of everyone.

    The romans had circuitry. Maybe not electric powered, but water powered? Oh you bet. If they could rig up an entire senate to rotate like a lazy suzan by manufacturing ball bearings and hooking it up to advanced gearing powered by a river…?

    Plus they knew how to work with lead metal, so other conductive metals werent completely out of reach, and they were masters of mass-scale uniform production. Their road structures and aquaducts barely even scratch the surface of what their engineers could do

    The shows like x-files, men in black (and others that I can’t think of from the top of my head) are actually documentaries, but no one would believe them, so they’re presented as fictional entertainment.

    JFK’s head spontaneously exploded with no explanation. The government quickly found some local bum, framed him and then shot him before he could say anything, to manufacture the idea of an assassination, because the alternative—that anyone’s head could spontaneously explode at any time for no reason—would cause mass panic and a collapse of the economy.

    Mine is that the term “conspiracy theo[rist/ry]” was made up by intelligence agencies to hide the shady things they were doing to the public, like testing torture methods, drugs and experimental weapons on impoverished communities

    Belief in alien UFOs is deliberately promoted as it makes a good cover for experimental government aircraft.

    The NSA has backdoors in most computer chipsets.

    Alex Jones is a false flag crisis actor designed to discredit anyone revealing genuine conspiracies.

    UFOs are real, and non human intelligence is here with us on earth, but those are both distractions from the much more consequential secrets: spacetime, and everything that exists within it, is a product of consciousness. Our consciousness continues after death. Telepathy, telekinesis, remote viewing, and precognition are possible. Human science is controlled and new discoveries in public academia are suppressed to prevent us from learning the truth.
