I can't tell if this is a parody account, or not. It's pushing pretty much every conspiracy out there.

Do these people think anything real ever happens? Do they think their life is the Truman Show?

They think they're the only ones watching it and everyone else is a character and has no clue how deep it all goes.

Jones has effectively changed conspiracy culture from a small group of mostly mentally unstable people, to thousands of insecure idiots that use it to convince themselves they're smarter than everyone else. Literally every major news event is a smokescreen for what really happened. I'm kind of amazed that Jones has been able to keep it going, but his followers seem to be quite persistent.

When Nixon walked because he was immediately pardoned it pretty much threw out the notion of a president ever being punished, and Obama made sure to remind everyone with his "look forward, not back" poo poo to ignore Bush and not send most of the administration to a windowless cell for the rest of their lives.

Wasn't Ford's rational that the country needed to focus on now instead of spending years prosecuting a President? Too bad the GOP didn't remember that when they spent years trying to prosecute Clinton.

Urban planners are sometimes surprised when they�re accused of plotting to undermine capitalism and sovereignty by taking away their neighbors� cars and forcing them to live in cities, reported The Post and Courier

�It�s coming up more and more, and I�m hearing about it from colleagues in other parts of the country,� said Bill Eubanks, a civil engineer who helped develop a master plan for a commercial boulevard in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.

These master plans are mandated by state or local governments to ensure orderly and responsible long-range development, but ideas that address sprawl and other environmental concerns raise suspicions about a possible U.N. plot.

�High-density urban development without parking for cars is the goal,� said Rosa Koire, of Democrats Against U.N. Agenda 21. �This means that whole towns need to be demolished and rebuilt in the image of sustainable development. Bike groups are being used as the �shock troops� for this plan.�

Yep, it checks out. Old geocities design, wall of links on the left, huge tldr body in the center, scary gifs at the top. Sure is a conspiracy site, although I question their allegiance to the Democratic party. They'd probably be better of with LaRouche.

Wow, people seem to really be getting into ebola conspiracies. I've seen a number popping up on social networks.

They all seem to revolve around a sinister intent to infect a percentage of the US and reduce world population (the old standby). It'd be nice if the news outlets would stop trying to scare the hell out of everyone.

This Week was leading with that nitwit Congressman that said he *knew* about multiple ISIS fighters that've come through the Mexico/US border. They're approach wasn't "Why would a Congressman say something so ridiculous?", it was "Could what this Congressman said be true???"

They're basically enabling people like Jones with their refusal to label anyone as insane. People like Bachmann, Gohmert, King (the Iowa one), and Paul should've been laughed out of Congress ages ago.

True story: The first time I started seeking treatment for my illness (I was homeless at the time) I went to get an evaluation from an agency that helps people with mental illness. The butterflies decorating the front of the building (known as the "Transformational Center") almost made me bolt on the spot though. You see, the butterflies were markings of a Monarch facility, and I realized how perfect of a place a mental illness screening facility would be for finding good candidates for the Monarch program.

Wait, are you talking about the villain from Venture Brothers?

I should have explained a bit more in detail here. "Monarch" is the supposed codename for a subdivision of the MK-ULTRA mind control program. I think Conspiracy Wiki sums it up best here.

So what had me freaked out was the possibility that I would be kidnapped, then tortured in such an indescribable fashion as to completely lose touch with reality, and then have false personalities implanted within me that could be triggered at any time without my knowledge. I knew that although Monarch was primarily designed to be used on children exceptions were made for anyone with latent psychic potential, and I also knew that my powers in the wrong hands would make me a very useful disposable assassin. I was terrified both of being tortured and of losing any sense of control over my life. (I was terrified these things would happen because of my budding and ill controlled psychic powers.) I can remember years before I sought out treatment joking with some of my fellow "psychic" friends about "One minute your telling a doctor all about the stress of trying to control these powers, and the next minute you are reading Catcher in the Rye and assassinating John Lennon".

Ah, sorry bout the confusion. :ohdear:
