Watch When We Left Earth. Not only is it an amazing documentary series, it will explain why was it possible and how was it achieved. If you still have doubts after that, I take my hat off to you sir.


Watched this documentary. It just confirmed that we indeed never landed on the Moon, because all their arguments were falacious if not wrong when verified.

Also, like all stupid couch potato teens I believed it until I saw facts about the contrary, and investigated on my own to make up my own opinion which is  that WITHOUT a doubt, we never landed on the Moon.

OH and then a friend working in the french equivalent of the Nasa told me that indeed, it's impossible that we landed on the Moon, and still can't as of now (unless we sacrifice a man that will never be able to come back, if ever he managed to land).

Only if they are true. Only then.



You actually believe that all 12 men who walked on the moon faked it and have remained silent all these years the last moon mission was in 1972. I can't believe that someone wouldn't have cracked in all this time.

So the bombs in the Gulf of Tonkin was a conspiracy theory right? Ernest Hemingway was a conspiracy theorist because he said the FBI was following him and torturing him right? The FBI setting up the first WTC bomber was a conspiracy theory right? The weapons of mass destruction not being in Iraq must be true because the media says it right? There's also stuff like JFK and WACO. A lot of conspiracy theories are not true, but many of them have truths and as time has gone on the world governments and media have become more and more corrupt making these things more likely to occur.
I'm not necessarily likely to believe a conspiracy theory unless there is good evidence, but i'm not likely to take the media at it's word either.

No way. Believing in those crazy theories is exactly what they want you to do. I'm not gonna play their twisted Machiavellian game.

That's an ambiguous question.. You can't just lump all conspiracies into one category, because some are true, while others are not.. For instance, the 9/11 and JFK conspiracy are true, while the "reptillians", faking the moon landing and "Holocaust is fake" conspiracies are not.

But remember, they are only conspiracy THEORIES because they have not been proven YET. If Watergate, Gulf of Tonkin Incident, Manhattan Project, etc were not all proven and confirmed conspiracies, they'd still be seen as "theories" as well..

I don't get why some people assume everyone that holds positions of power in government are somehow these angels who would never do wrong. They are just people, and just like the rest of us, many would go to great lengths for greater power and wealth, even if that means crossing the line into corruption. If anything, history has shown that holding positions of power tends to make people MORE susceptible to corruption. Power corrupts - it is a constant throughout history, with a select few exceptions. Sadly those few exceptions always oddly seem to end up assassinated or end up dying in a plane crash..

At the risk of sounding smug, which is not at all my intention - take it from the guy with the history degree.

The people in power do WHAT THEY WANT, regardless of whether it abides by the law, or even ethical.

No, some are amusing though.

   Over the years I have seen/read several conspiracy theories, from 911, haarp to the incurable diseases... 

 I for one, believe in some of those.. Human greed has no limits and it would not be a surprise (IMO) if most of the theories are true...

 I just recently got this, I dunno what to think yet, but it seems like the have some valid points...

What is your take on that?




When you look at history there is more than just 1 event where the government made up shit and then blamed others so they had green light for doing whatever they want.

The industry which most of the time controls the "government" has alot of shit going on  Like in Europe  chemical suggar substitutes were allowed (stuff like aspartame, saccharine and cyclamat) which are toxic cancerous and can make people sterile. The reason why they were legal was this one SURE THERE IS HINTS BUT ITS NOT 100% PROVEN TO BE TOXIC OR CANCEROUS SO WE WILL KEEP USING THEM.


Whereas stuff like STEVIA which is a natural sweeter without any negative side effects was illegal and the reason was ITS NOT 100% SURE TO HAVE NO NEGATIVE SIDE EFFECT SO WE WONT USE IT!. 

Being exposed to this "logic" Mr. Spock would commit suicide...

The suggar industry and the "creators" of aspartame, cyclamat crap   blocked STEVIA for ages!

You always have to think about  who has more to win/lose.  And then you mostly know whats the truth.

TBH people that believe the government "stories" usually say conspiracy theorists and people believing in what they say are dumb.  But fact is that people that blidly follow are the ones that are the less smart group.

People constantly ignore that governments can be shit and that governments can lie etc.   You know Bill Clinton never had sex with Monicy Lewinsky  just saying.



what I find the most hilarious, is that people think our government is actually capable of pulling off these things.

Also, everyone has a friend who's an expert on something who says "it's impossible". There was some doctor who looked at the guy who lost both legs and said "it's impossible that he's alive. There isn't enough blood on the ground, and he would've lost five liters. He would've been unconscious and then dead within a matter of minutes.

Turns out he actually did have legs, and there are pictures of him, get this, with legs. All his neighbors knew him to have legs.
But everyone is an expert, and everyone knows what is impossible. Like the moon landing...
