Sorry, I just thought they were funny. I don't see why everything has to be serious.

I understand that some so-called conspiracy theories are the truth, and can be proven, or are at least supported to the point were it is not absurd to believe them. I am not dismissive of ideas just because they are labeled conspiracy theories by the media/masses, and I don't have a negative view of people who believe that certain things are actually conspiracies. That's aside from stuff like chemtrails and lizard people...

I'm not convinced (but I consider it) that 9/11 for example was an inside job (or allowed to happen, etc), but neither will I blindly accept everything the media/masses/government tell me.


Also, one thing that bugs me about a lot of these theories is that the information isn't from terribly reputable looking sources. But of course if they are in fact true, than no "reputable" source is going to publish things to support them. It's difficult to sort out what is truth and what is fiction and who is telling what, so I tend to reside somewhere in the middle of many of the more contested theories, not making up my mind.

I can't stand conspiracy theorists and their ilk.

I wish they'd take part in their own conspiracy and found a country on the moon, where there's no air.

Seems a bit harsh. especially considering many of them are founded upon empirical evidence. I'd rather have a conversation with an individual who is opposed to authority and government as opposed to someone who just blindly accepts what they absorb in the media.
