    One i came up with myself, and have no real proof for other than “well just look at this shit” :

    Gangster rap being promoted as a way to get people to confess to crimes on tape. And to wear your pants in the most trip-hazard way possible for easy capture.

    Snoop Dogg and NWA and the like selling impressionable young black people stuck in ghettos that a path to success is to get infront of a microphone, wait for the beat to start, and recite poetry including your name, felonies, and area code.

        Yeah im not actually American so I dont have the rich history baked into my consciousness to truly understand my level of ignorance there.

        Still basically believe it though.

    The CIA is holding internet surveys to ask people of that board which
    conspiracy theories they believe in order to gauge the effectiveness of their hoaxes.

      I don’t believe we planned & executed it, but I do believe we knew about it, and stepped back to let it happen, and took advantage of it to expand the police state…

      I can’t believe this is still treated as a conspiracy. Like, what are the doubters expecting? The CIA will come out and say, “oh, yeah! guys, we did 9/11 lol xoxo”? There’ll never be any confirmation on this, ever.

        The confirmation is in all the qu’rans that appear to have been planted in the hijacker’s cars and also on mohammad atta’s luggage that never got put on the plane. Plus the flight training manual in arabic language.

        David Icke’s 2019 book “The Trigger” was a good refresher for me. I highly recommend it. Very long book though!

    Current day leftism is a sham meant to sow division between workers and focus on anything but workers rights boycotting AIPAC and the two party system in America and a possible revolution

      I do agree a lot of b.s on the left side sure seems like psyop shit.

      Fake outrage over b.s when there is plenty of real shit happening that is overshadowed by petty stuff.

      Like a tattoo someone got 20 years ago that could be interpreted as hate. Though it’s subjective. And the person got it removed.

      But yeah that’s way more important to dramatize all over online than talking about what Kushner is up to. Which I rarely see mentioned.

        “could be interpreted as hate”

        Bro, it was literally a Nazi SS totenkopf.

        Besides that, he was a bloodthirsty murderer who went back 4 times in order to kill innocent Iraqis and Afghanistanis, didn’t get enough murder, so joined up with a notorious mercenary group.

          And no one in the history of the world has gotten a tattoo of a symbol that they didn’t understand the meaning behind.

            He might not have known what it was when he got it, but he became a self professed history buff, specifically about WWII. There’s literally no way he didn’t know what it was during the course of the 2 decades it was on his chest.

            I see you have no defense against the murder part, which is what I take the most issue with.

                Innocent Iraqis and Afghanistanis during his 3 combat tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan.

                You don’t seem very informed about the Nazi tattooed murderer you’re defending…

                  You realize that every soldier in the history of the world is guilty of killing or helping to kill innocent people?

                  I’m not excusing it. I’m not saying it didn’t happen.

                  But it’s not like he made the decisions to invade another country or even voted to fund it.

                  But I guess him being in the military and following orders is just so much worse than his competitions actions.

                  I thought that voting in Congress to send weapons to support a genocide was worse.

                  But I guess I’m wrong. A bad tattoo from 20 years ago and being a soldier is way worse.

                  Thanks for helping me to understand. I’ll remember that in the future. Any bad tattoo is way worse than supporting genocide or pedos. Glad I know now.

      How does that sound for leftist unity?

    Michael Jordan didn’t retire that first time. He was suspended for his gambling addiction, but you can’t suspend your highest profile player without the league dying, so they came up with a cover story.

        That’s actually another conspiracy theory: His dad was killed b/c he owed gambling money to the mob & didn’t pay.

          There’s so many other things you could do without suspending him for two years. Also, knowing him, he would have publicly come out slamming the NBA if he really was suspended for gambling.

      Feels like how the USA will create radio stations called “Radio Free _____” that’ll just brainrot people into liberalism, but just with one layer of subtlety lmao. Maybe more similar to the passive propagandistic value of American cinema (which admittedly the movies are good lol)

    Corporations and billionaires spend a ton of money to prevent people in the USA from having access to basic medical services as a way to limit professional mobility, forcing folks to stay in exploitative jobs which they hate.
