Has a conspiracy ever been proven?

Hammer89

Like.........ever? When was the last a widespread conspiracy theory turned out to be true and blew people's socks off?

I'm not doubting the existence of cover-ups, but I am doubting that the orchestrators would leave a trail of breadcrumbs or easter eggs for nerds to follow in the future in the hope of uncovering some sort of plot.

Maybe that billionaire sex trafficker was murdered, or maybe he offed himself because he was facing 45 years in prison. Maybe he didn't fancy dying in jail and decided to go out on his terms.

Why were there no guards watching? Because humans are stupid who makes massive mistakes all the time. We know better than most just how truly negligent people can be after the smear test scandal.

Nothing to see here lads. It's just a horrible human being who capitalised on human negligence and chose suicide over 45 years confinement.

So many conspiracies have been uncovered. The one that really always bothered me was the light bulb conspiracy. All the main light bulb manufactures got to gather to limit the life span of light bulbs finding each other if they didn't adhere to the agreement. The ecological damage this made dwarfs pretty much any other example as it was world wide for decades. Even after it was uncovered they pretty much continued to limit the life span of bulbs.

Even the whole fact of Epstein being a child sex trafficker and having an island where rich and powerful people including world leaders, were provided with whatever they wanted, complete with a weird temple etc. This has been going around conspiracy forums for years. Now that it's been pretty much proven, everyone seemingly knew it was true all along and it was never a conspiracy?

Chuck Stuart in Boston drove his pregnant wife to a quiet area and she was shot in the passenger seat. She died the next day but hospital staff successfully delivered the baby

Stuart was also shot and was so badly injured he spent six weeks in hospital and missed the funeral of his wife

He claimed a black guy did it and the media went into overdrive with headlines getting angrier by the day. The police hauled multiple black men in for questioning and racial tensions in the city went up

Turned out Chuck shot his wife to get life assurance and had to shot himself to stage it

He killed himself jumping into a river before he saw a courtroom. There was an excellent made for TV move on it

Thats not really an example of a conspiracy theory though.

Read a while back that while LED bulbs are rated to 10,000 hours there is no reason they could not do 40,000 if the manufacturers wanted them to

On conspiracys one that is not yet proven but might be is the creation of Lymes disease by US secret services as a tool to be used against populations in biological warfare. Theres a former US govt scientist with a book out that claims it was developed in labs and either deliberately or accidentaly used on the population. Its transported by ticks so small you can barely see them and it ends in a horrific death with the body crippled by constant pain. Many sufferers commit suicide such is the pain. The whistleblower scientist claims it was created around the same time as Agent Orange for the Vietnam War. Its out of control now with around 300,000 Americans dying from it every year and its untreatable unless caught very early.

For years CIA links to drug smuggling, particularly facilitation and support of Nicaraguan Contra linked cocaine smuggling into the US, were denied. In fact Journalist Gary Webb was ridiculed from all quarters for reporting it, suffered professional disgrace as a result and eventually took his own life in 2004. Nowadays its broadly accepted that CIA links were present, though their extent remains contested.

Learned about this recently - the book based on his investigative report, Dark Alliance, is on my to-read list. And there's a film too about him, Kill The Messenger. Poor guy.

Also, people close to him did say he was very depressed, and unfortunately suicide was not surprising. But there were two bullet wounds to his head...

Netflix has a decent documentary on Ricky Ross, the crack dealer involved in Webb's allegations, that has some good coverage of Webb's story. It's called Freeway; Crack in the System.

It's funny how so many people thought "he'll be done" when Epstein went to prison.

Most of the posts are perfectly rational and documented posts about known cover ups. Conspiracy facts.

I’ve bern doing my best to scare away the crazier posts.

I’ve noticed that’s there’s a kind of person who refuses to believe that no conspiracy can ever happen, despite the huge evidence that numerous high level conspiracies have happened particularly regarding war. These kind of posters don’t really have much to say about the evidence, just an argument of sneering lack of knowledge.

Yeah the far fetched theories and their supporters wreck my head, but cover-ups have definitely occurred.

I haven’t. If I did I wouldn’t believe it because psychic stuff is nonsense.

So you know nothing about the concept, or how they tried it, but you are still enough of an expert to declare it as "nonsense".

Well that is easily disproved by the fact lymes disease has been known about before the USA even existed. Then you have the fact deer ticks are pretty viable to the naked eye. It also very rarely kills but it is true to say it is extremely unpleasant and no real cure. It is basically flu symptoms and by that I mean if you got the flu and not when people class a cold as the flu. If you ever got the flu you would know the difference.

It can be debilitating.

But 300,000 Americans don't die of it every year, I don't know where that stat came from.

I think the medical fraternity in Britain and Ireland have been negligent on it, for years they were saying you couldn't get it in these parts but there's no conspiracy there. And we probably consider the impact of the large increase in wild deer, who are hosts for the ticks.

I see Epstein strangled himself more than once.

Theres plenty of business conspiracys, to screw the consumer, drive up the
price of products or services ,
and reduce the competition .
the american government pays for drug research,
company x gets the patent.
the company can charge 100 or 1000 euro for that drug.
theres only one source for that drug in america .
People are driving to canada to buy drugs and medicine .
the company that controls domain name prices has lifted the price limits.
It used to be 7 dollars per year for a .com domain name .
in a years time it could be 100 dollars .for.com and .org domain names .
Some non profits may drop certain domain name s if they become to expensive
scammers or hackers will be able to buy them in order to commit fraud in the future .
telecom companys lobbied the us congress .
To reduce or limit new rules for security procedures in the structure of 5g networks .
So in the future it will be alot easier for hackers to hack into
any 5 g phone,
This could be a problem if you use your phone for banking or
credit card transactions .
but it saves comcast usa a few 1000 dollars ,so thats ok.

We don't have to go overseas to see a conspiracy that has been proven...have people forgotten what happened to Maurice McCabe.

And in the same vein...what happened in Donegal.
