This is actually how birds aren't real became a real conspiracy theory

[–] dankm@lemmy.ca 6 points 4 days ago

I refuse to believe that anybody believes birds aren't real.

But I also refused to believe flat earthers were real until I met one.

The current flat earth movement started as a joke

Most conspiracy theorists aren't married to their pet conspiracies so much as the idea of conspiracies. If you one-up them, they'll probably hear you out and then tell someone else about it later.

True. You almost have to believe the moon landing was fake before you believe in flat earth.

Some flat earthers do not believe that there is a moon though. You have to go deeper than this.

Flat Earthers are cute, believing in the Earth.

We're all living in the Garden of Eve, the Garden of Beauty and Sin, which is Arkansas. The coasts and the continents are all fiction, TV nonsense. If the terrorists flew their plane to Arkansas they wouldn't get in, because the terrorists aren't real and Arkansas is real and is under the protection of God. We live on a 70,000 square mile board of his creation, and we can't figure out where he put us. Dig deep or go far or jump high, you're not getting out of Arkansas.

Can't go too deep or you fall out of the underside.

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

you believe there's a top-side? are you trying to cover up the truth?!

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You think that's air your breathing?

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

Dammit, now I need to rewatch the Matrix.

I'm well experienced with deep moon conspiracy and bird law.

Like, why are they hiding that it's made of cheese?

[–] tarsn@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)

How can you be experienced in bird law when birds aren't real?

We are the moon!

[–] ebolapie@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

The moon is flat, the earth is hollow, and Jesus was a dinosaur

[–] tarsn@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago

The moon is just a prison where the deep state are keeping dino jesus so we don't discover that she's an alien

Had a colleague who was doing that with another colleague that fell down the anti vax rabbit hole, he would just come up with the craziest thing until the other guy left him alone.

I live in one of the most heavily propagandized countries on the planet. I'm not even gonna pretend I have any clue what really happened...

How to say you're an American without saying you're an American.

Sometimes I think about 9/11 is an inside job is an inside job and accuse them of being a g-man

Lol was coming to comment this thats already a conspiracy and some think it was faked because the moon is too active with aliens and secret military bases.
