      All the world govs, banks, corps work together to make us believe we live in different countries with different forms of government when in reality they all work together behind closed doors to make more money off us and control us. Follow the money and research politicians family trees you’ll see the truth, they’re all blood relatives. The families that ruled the world 500 years ago still rule the world today, I don’t just mean Europe, “keep the money and power in the family” is very much a real thing. A majority of US presidents are blood related to each other all the way back to the King of England that signed the Magna Carta (may be coincidence but I doubt it).

    I'm a chemist, and being so, I think the Precautionary Principle should be our baseline. Essentially, until something is scientifically proven safe (not to be confused with politicians on either side saying it is safe) it is best avoided. The unfortunate truth is a lot of research is paid for by groups, including governmental agencies, that have a vested interest in the message delivered by the results. Its up to us to sort that out, and that's a real burden if you take it seriously.

      While it is far above my knowledge to know if birth control pills in the water are the cause, it is fact that American men have lower and lower testosterone levels every generation. This has jokingly been called the "Soy Boy Effect" and is blamed on today's youth drinking overpriced soy lattes by some. Soy products do indeed have an effect on human sex hormones, but again, above my knowledge to know. I do find it quite concerning, though.
      Same with depression meds, it is very alarming that they found traces of these meds in fish, when one of the ironic side effects warnings of many of them is "may cause depression or thoughts of self harm". And we have record numbers of people who are depressed these days, but a lot of that could be due to other factors, like the hangover the whole world seems to still have from Beer Flu, the state of the economy, the number of hugely concerning conflicts...

      Yea the entire tech community pretty much already knew/assumed what was going on. The tech was obviously there and the legal framework existed so there was no real reason to suspect it *wasnt* happening. The leaks provided specifics and proof so they were still important but anyone actually surprised by them wasn’t paying attention.
      I will point out though that while pretty much all of the information being collected back then is just available completely legally for sale to anyone with a credit card and a tax ID (including any gov agency) ISPs have very little real access to any of that data and it’s almost universally coming from other sources. All your ISP can really see at this point is what other computers yours is talking to, and given that like 60% of the internet exists in a few dozen datacenters owned by 3 companies that data rarely tells them much.

      Iirc infrasound can legitimately make people lose their sanity temporarily, I think some people end up causing physical damage to their bodies in a blackout type event.
      And whether it is natural infrasound or tech it kinda makes sense for it to be there. Natural because a secretive group of artists would definitely be the type of people to set up camp at q place that just had weird vibes. Whereas if it's technology it'd make sense as an attempt to keep people out.

      Don't worry about it! All our aging water/waste water infrastructure, which was never designed in the 60s + 70s to filter out many chemicals we put into our waste water, just dumps it into our rivers and seas. Once it's there it's not a problem for the local people any more and it's not like we live on a planet with a complex water cycle which insures that what we dump into our rivers/seas will eventually come back to us!

But the guy in the vid was talking nonsense, Jones wasn't talking about EE2 he was talking about Atrazine, a pesticide, sprayed onto foods and leaks directly into the water table, it's found in water across the states and unlike what he said in the video is extremely dangerous for humans and animals, it causes cancer, leukemia, lymphoma, birth defects, reproductive damage, tumours. 80 million pounds of it are used annually but its completely banned by the EU because it's so hazardous.

      @llyrghmnghyll 10 месяцев назад

      none of these are mindblowing, and all prove the same thing, conspiracies are not well organized and when the're "real" they are almost completely unrelated to the stories people say about them.
      1) Roswell was a spy balloon, cover up: true reason, hiding spy equipment. virtually every theory about the cover up - made up nonsense.
      2) Bohemian Grove - no one ever denied this existed as far as I know. not sure why this is even labelled as a conspiracy. seems on par with lots of Frat parties I crashed.
      3) Government surveillance - OK, this one is almost a story. We knew what the patriot act allowed, we knew what the technology was, and we knew that Private industry was already doing most of this. the surprise was that the Government was collecting and storing info it claimed to only be monitoring. this is basically a rate of deletion issue.
      The biggest reveal was that the US govenrment was targeting Muslims, which they said they weren't doing. This sucks, but wasn't really a surprise to anyone who had at all been paying attention.
      4) The Gulf of Tonkin. this isn't really much different than the lusitania or the Maine. A ship is damaged, a foreign enemy is blamed and the press runs with it. To really know what the lie was we'd have to go back and follow the trail of statements. My understanding is that both the war department and the Media ran with a story they liked and neither contradicted each other, becuase neither had an incentive to. this is a conspiracy of interest.
      5) Gay Frogs. this can by no means be called a conspiracy, as the science was understood and Nothing That Alex Jones siad was right. Certain chemicals in the water could change the sexual expression of Amphibians. this could come from either natural or unnatural chemicals. There was no unifying "they" doing it, it didn't make anything "gay", and it wasn't specific to frogs.
      If I say that Big Ag is poisoning us with Food Waste to make us obese so they can control the world, that is mostly true, but the true parts are unremarkable, understood and the part that isn't true is such a vast miscategorization that it's mostly nonsense.
      1) Big Ag is a big business and they're understood motive is to make a profit. Profit means wealth and wealth is power. specifically power over the world.
      2) Food Waste. - most of the food industry is waste, so of course a good business will be incentivized to recycle what food waste they can back into a marketable product.
      3) UPF, whic is what most food waste is recylcled into does make people obese,
      hence it's all true, unremarkable, and framing it as a conspiracy does nothing to solve the issue.

    The whole Gulf of Tonkin incident was a bit more fuzzy than that. There were two reported attacks. The first was real: USS Maddox apparently approached the North Vietnamese coast (crossing into North Vietnam's territorial waters, though the US didn't recognized that limit at the time). Three torpedo boats closed in, and the Maddox fired three warning shots to discourage them. The torpedo boats then attacked, scoring a single machine gun hit and no torpedo hits before withdrawing.
    The second "attack" occurred two days later and further away from the coast, and the Spirit of the Kamchatka had truly come upon the US Navy that day. Wasn't actually a false flag, though, because it wasn't intentionally staged. They just screwed up.

They also kidnapped fisherman and whoever they could and took them back to a secret "base camp" of the revolutionary movement to over throw the N.V govt. They blind folded them and took their clothes and sewed silk maps in the clothes of those victims and returned them .

    My grandfather, father, uncle and cousin all belonged to the Bohemian Grove and I got to visit it in 1970 as a teenager, but not while the "encampment" was going on. Each member belongs to a particular "cabin" where he stays during the yearly event. The slogan "Weaving Spiders Come Not Here" actually means that you're not supposed to be discussing business or important stuff while you're there, but instead just having casual relaxation - and doing stupid juvenile stuff too, while you're drunk. Also, the opening night event is called "The Cremation of Care", not "THE Care". It's gotten a murky reputation because of the power of many of the members, not to mention the secrecy of the encampment, but it's actually just a big fraternal organization like the Elks or the Shriners that gets together and stages a bunch of things out in the woods.

      @@eric_has_no_idea The radar reflector balloon theory to which you refer has been thoroughly debunked. It is one of *many* discredited government "explanations", and those explanations have been shown to be impossible, given the dates detailed in the Roswell newspaper report, and the dates in the records associated with the government's explanations. The Mogul balloon project did have one of its balloons "disappear" from radar in the general vicinity, but (IIRC), the date for that flight was *after* the reported UFO recovery, and was not exactly close to the site. Another government "explanation" for the small bodies reportedly retrieved from the crash site, were determined to be from a high altitude drop in the 1950's.
      The records from the Roswell base for the time frame of the crash, recovery, and subsequent investigation ... have *conveniently* been lost. All of the rest of that year's records are known to exist, the only ones missing are from the time in question.
      So, the government has provided many iterations of explanations that have been shown to be lies, and lost relevant records. Their credibility is worse than people whom claim to have been abducted by aliens. Your call as to what you want to believe, but you really ought to look into the various explanations, and the details thereof, for yourself.
      Also, IIRC, the Mogul Project was never used, merely tested. IIRC, the deciding factor was the lack of control of where it flew.

I seem to recall that when called up on this, the air force changed its story and indicated that it was some sort of testing of a crash test mannequin or something. There was some sort of factual inconsistency with that project being an answer too.

    I live in Roswell, and I have two ufo stories. One is from when my dad was a kid, my grandma and dad told me about how they were driving through one of the many pecan orchards near my current house, and saw a bright blue light in the night sky that sat there for a bit. After a while it suddenly shot off, imagine something that looks like jumping to hyperspace in star wars. The second one me and my mom saw. We had just pulled into our neighborhood (which is out in the county areas of the town). Our house is at the top of a hill, we looked and somewhere slightly beyond the hill was some kind of floating circular object. It was maybe 4-6 years ago so I don't remember it perfectly, but if my memory is right, it almost looked like a floating frisbee that sat there before disappearing as if it cloaked itself in an instant. That's just my experience living in Roswell all 16 years of my life, I'm sure many others have similar stories. But I will say I do not think whatever crashed here was a weather balloon.

      The military air base in Roswell was one of several that were secretive as they handled and ran tests with experimental air craft. Based on the witness accounts I’ve watched and read, it’s very likely that the Roswell incident involved experimental aircraft that used a newly developed material; this would explain the absolute secrecy. Out of the ‘conspiracy theories’ this one makes the most sense in my opinion.

    • @serenitygoodwyn
      @serenitygoodwyn Месяц назад

      There are military bases there and they use the area for test flights (because if they crash they won't kill people and can clean up the mess relatively unobserved). For example in the 70s and 80s there were lots of signings of triangular/pyramid shaped, black, UFOs. Then in the mid 1980s the F117 was brought into service and it looks and manoeuvres very much like the described UFOs. There are likely plenty of aircraft concepts that are tested that never make it beyond the testing stages for various reasons. So no doubt people are seeing things that they don't' recognise and are not consistent with existing technology, many of which will never make it into service and therefore become obvious like the F117. That doesn't mean it's alien.
