Moon landing I'm no longer sure about
Most sunscreen IS poisonous, that's not even controversial
Vaccine injuries are wildly underreported, their benefits wildly overstated and the cost-benefit criminally under-tested. Bill Gates, the Epstein scumbag, seems to be flogging them and injecting them into poor people in third world countries "for the greater good" (obviously), but their existence pre-dated his involvement in them, so that one is probably false.
Have you come across the idea that the Moon landing happened but most of the pictures and footage are fake? I think it's a slightly better conspiracy theory than that the whole thing was faked.
haven’t heard that, but I could believe almost anything at this point — very odd we not only haven’t gone back in 50 years, but haven’t even come close.
Most of the inconsistencies and oddities I've seen people point to had to do with the media surrounding the landing and there is independently verifiable evidence of the landing, so it's a neat middle ground theory.
Yeah, I mean it’s possible. The hardest part to believe about that would be that they made it to the moon — in 1969, no less — and yet they were willing to taint it with fraudulent footage. I mean I get the appeal of televising it live, but why undermine such a seismic achievement with a massive lie? Why lie like that if you actually did the unimaginable deed? Seems a bit farfetched that wouldn’t have leaked, that the astronauts wouldn’t have said later, yeah, the footage was fake so it could be more dramatic live.
Think it’s more likely it happened for real, and for God knows what reason we haven’t ever come close since. Or it was fake.
The version that makes the most sense to me (and I'm not saying it's what I believe to be true) is that they weren't sure if the video and pictures they took would work so they prepared backups ahead of time. There were concerns about whether film would be ruined by the radiation belts.
So, the astronauts really took photos of what they were doing and really were recording video. Whatever of that was usable was used, eventually, but they used the backup stuff too.
A Rogan guest laid it out pretty well a few years ago and it seemed to explain all the incongruities I had ever heard of without requiring the entire program to be fake, or even every to be aware of the fraudulent elements.
It's a fun conspiracy theory space, since it really doesn't matter one way or another.
I mean in one sense it doesn’t matter — affects no one’s life whatsoever — but in another it’s kind of important in that it shows the extent to which the entire population might have been propagandized and deceived. But yeah it’s hilarious when people get upset if you question it.
Obviously Gates didn’t invent vaccines. But he did say this in a TED talk: “The world today has 6.8 billion people. That's headed up to about nine billion. Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, 10 or 15 percent.”
So if we give more people vaccines, we can reduce the world population? But I thought vaccines kept people alive?
