    Arrow The Craziest Conspiracy Theories That People Actually Believe

    The Craziest Conspiracy Theories That People Actually Believe - According to the internet, we should steer clear of the Denver airport....and Bill Gates.

    Conspiracy theories are not a new concept, but they've taken on a new life thanks to the internet. In 2020, we saw more than our fair share of misinformation online—some rooted in historical details, others in fear. Here, we're taking a look at the craziest theories people have believed over the years, from an Earth within Earth to Prince Charles living as a closeted vampire.


    The moon landing was fake. - The flag moving in the wind, no stars in the sky whatsoever, the misaligned shadows—these have all been points made in the conspiracy theory that Neil Armstrong didn't take the first "leap for mankind" on the moon in 1969. For years, conspiracists have argued that NASA staged the landing and that the secret has been protected by the CIA ever since.

    The government killed JFK. - There are a number of conspiracy theories about President Kennedy's death, but one of the most popular is that the government was behind the assassination. Many Americans don't believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, and biographer Philip Shenon claims that even Bobby Kennedy thought the CIA was responsible for his brother's death at first.

    The Denver International Airport is Illuminati's headquarters. - The Illuminati leads to a conspiracy rabbit hole that we're not going to delve too far into—except when it comes to the Denver International Airport. Many Illuminati believers are convinced it's the secret group's headquarters. The airport has embraced the rumors by poking fun at it, but that hasn't stopped people from believing secret tunnels and lizard lairs lurk beneath the building.

    'Crony Beliefs'

    "But when we consider the beliefs of other people? It's an epistemic $#@! show out there. Astrology, conspiracies, the healing power of crystals. Aliens who abduct Earthlings and build pyramids. That vaccines cause autism or that Obama is a crypto-Muslim — or that the world was formed some 6,000 years ago, replete with fossils made to look millions of years old. How could anyone believe this stuff?!

    No, seriously: how?"

    Question @midcan5 : If vaccines did cause some autism in the few but protected the masses do you think the government would be honest about that?
    For example we know that vaccines cause reactions, sometimes severe in the few. But our government won't seem to admit that about the COVID vaccine. Which in turn fuels suspicion, which fuels distrust, which fuels resistence to the vaccines. Those who chose not to receive them are them shamed and called names, threatened with loss of job, travel options etc.
    How can you really trust govenment?

    I agree that elements in the government worked with the mob to kill JFK. There are lots of good books on it. One off the top of my head is Doctor Mary's Monkeys.

    I have heard that Cubans may have been part of the hit teams, but not that they had anything to do with planning it.
