Califan007 The Constipated Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Other than QAnon or voter fraud in the 2020 election, that is lol...that's discussed like a mf'er already. However, with the whole QAnon thing (which I had no clue about until a year or so ago), thought I'd ask this question. Part of me believes everyone, at some point in their lives, believed a conspiracy theory. It's extremely rare for me to even slightly get caught up in any conspiracy theory--my take is that applying logic to a conspiracy theory pretty much destroys the theory...like "for this to be true, how many people would have to be in on it?" Still, I've had two times where I bought the conspiracy: once when I was MUCH younger I bought the whole JFK assassination conspiracy. While I can still find questions to ask about it I haven't bought into it for decades. The other one involved some small software company back in the 80s I think that the guvmint stole their software and sold it to other countries, I think? And used it for...hell, I dunno. At any rate, an investigative journalist picked up on the story somehow and was exposing the facts when he was murdered in his hotel room while on a trip to get more evidence, I believe. The conspiracy connected the two things and the software theft was shown to be true years later in a congressional hearing, I think (my memory...damn lol). I don't think the murder of the journalist was ever solved, though--I first saw it on Unsolved Mysteries lol...so probably not. Oh, and Area 51 was kinda sorta believed by me...the newspaper articles from the time made me willing to buy into it. Anyway, do you believe in any conspiracy theories? Hoping we can have fun with this and not insult or ridicule each other if we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD_washingtonredskins Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I don't buy it, but I really love watching the moon landing conspiracy theories because there are some interesting coincidences... The older I get, the more I think there was more to the Kennedy assassination than just a disgruntled guy killing him. I don't know what is needed for it to truly be a conspiracy, but I don't think Oswald acted alone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spjunkies Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I'm one of the people who thinks that Oswald didn't act alone. That **** just doesn't add up at all to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what is needed for it to truly be a conspiracy, but I don't think Oswald acted alone. I tend to agree, the older I get I don't think he acted alone. I don't think he was that good of a shot to begin with. He tried to shoot a retired general in earlier 1963 from like 100 feet away through a window and the bullet hit the window frame and he missed the guy. I don't get how someone who was average/below average shot in the Marines and can't shoot someone through a window 100 feet away all of a sudden was able to rip off the shots that he did and be successful on a moving target. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BatteredFanSyndrome Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) 2Pac is alive and living on an island somewhere. That was my original theory when it happened, well before the internet was a household necessity.

gbear Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 The conspiracy is that he killed Nicole. I mean he was found innocent... Is it not a conspiracy theory if the majority of people (including me) believe it to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there is a conspiracy theory that OJ's son Jason did it and OJ helped cover it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a couple more sports ones for you... Gamblers got to UNLV players in 91 and they threw the Final Four game to Duke. And, tin foil hat alert, Magic Johnson has never had HIV.

Fergasun Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 OJ conspiracy? Guess people didn't live through that. Of course everyone knows he killed Ron Goldman and Nicole... in fact Goldman's dad won a civil suit. I am convinced based on other former conspiracy theorists that Oswald did act alone. All these people have looked into their concerns and do believe it is possible to take the shots he did. Also, there are no breadcrumbs leading to anywhere else. At this point someone would talk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. Oswald did that **** and acted alone. My brother is still convinced LBJ was behind it. Apparently so did Jackie O. My best friends dad was one of Aristotle Onassis' pilots. Sad she absolutely believed LBJ was involved. I honestly don't believe in most conspiracy theories. Reason being people can't keep their mouths shut.

The Evil Genius Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I'd be more apt to think the Russians influenced and/or assisted Oswald moreso than a second shooter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
