If you want to get your Conspiracy Feet wet on something more digestible and concrete, this new 9/11 documentary is only 45 minutes and really good.
"
SEVEN" from
Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth featuring Dr. Leroy Hulsey and his Ph.D. students at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (2020)
TL;DW = Ph.D's prove the World Trade Center building 7 collapse was a controlled demolition.

I've seen the rebuttals to that video and others like it and they convince me that building 7 fell due to natural causes once uncontrolled fires raged through the building all day. There is 0 proof that explosives were involved and there is 0 reason to think they would have to be or were.
One problem these conspiracy theories have is that they cherry pick "scientists" and data. So you say, "These are structural engineers saying it was controlled demolition. They are experts!". Sure, but there are also experts who disagree with them. Then the conspiracy advocates just accuse the disagreeing experts as being part of the conspiracy. Suddenly the conspiracy involves thousands of people with no obvious motive to perpetuate a horrible criminal conspiracy.
People start with a premise that arises from their psychological predisposition and/or profit motive, find "evidence" and "experts" to support the premise and discard what doesn't support it. That is human nature. We are emotional story tellers much much more than we are rational analysts. You have to work hard to overcome that tendency and most people don't even try.
IMO, the controlled demolition story is silly. Even if it happened in Building 7, and I do not believe it did, what does it prove? That airplanes hijacked by Islamic terrorists
didn't attack the US on 9/11/01? Well, you'd have discard mountains of incontrovertible evidence to arrive at that conclusion. If airplanes were used by terrorists, then what is the point of wiring a building to explode and collapse? Why would such a conspiratorial genius wire the building to collapse in a way that resembled a controlled demolition? That would call unwanted attention. Why not have it collapse in some more uncontrolled manner so as to avoid accusations of conspiracy? It would actually be a lot easier - as well as smarter - to cause an
uncontrolled collapse. Also, a genius conspirator that could set the whole thing up without a leak and without being otherwise caught would greatly increase his risk of being found out by creating the unnecessary redundancy of using explosives? That makes 0 sense and, anyhow, again, there is 0 evidence for such a thing beyond the opinion of a few engineers; most of whom have no experience with demolitions or that type of building.
I've seen fools that insist that it must have been a missile that hit the Pentagon. They have all manner of stupid reasons and they ignore that dozens of witnesses actually saw the airplane fly into the building and their testimony is on record. I personally know someone who was in the Naval Annex building across the street and saw it and testified as to what he saw. I guess they are all in on the conspiracy too. I guess I'm on it as well. Sheesh. But but but .....how does an airplane make such a small hole? It's called high velocity aluminum meets very thick reinforced concrete designed to withstand a nuclear blast. For Chrissakes there is photo evidence of bits of airplane on the lawn and inside the Pentagon. The photo evidence (along with DNA from scraps of human remains from passengers and crew, inside the building) are a matter of record. But ignore all of that if you like and pretend to have the inside scoop that it was a missile. For crying out loud.
The US govt assisted the terrorists on an incredibly destructive and deadly operation? Now you're into the realm of blatant ignorance about a lot of matters, but especially demolitions, military operations, US military personnel - and maybe achieving clinical paranoia, in my opinion. I freaking hate these 9/11 truther videos. They are fundamentally dishonest. Always ignoring key facts and realities to score a conspiratorial point......sorry.
It's one thing to take political advantage of a virus; the virus is real, but the media exaggerates its danger because that is what the media always does to get more views/clicks. Politicians exaggerate the threat to score points against an opponent and gain power - or fear the consequences of down-playing it if it really is going to be that bad (i.e.playing it safe). People like Fauci get to enjoying their 15 minutes of fame and say irresponsible things; probably politically motivated as well. Then dummies make stupid social, economic and political decisions that they can't easily go back on once it is clear that the plague isn't so bad after all and that it should be handled differently, and the whole thing further organically snowballs into more societal disaster from there. At this point, the
CDC website even contains fairly accurate data and anyone looking can see that there is a 99.99% survival rate for those under 75 and in reasonably good health.
So the government isn't exactly hiding the truth as they would have to do in a true plot (like 9/11 is supposed to be, according to "Truthers"). It's just the usual media and politicians making stupid noise and stupid sheep buying into the noise because they are too stupid to understand basic statistics and contexts - and voices of reason being drowned out for reasons outlined above. This is an important point. The "govt" is not really hiding the truth. It's right there on the CDC website. The politicians and media are just being non-responsive to the truth.
In the case of 9/11 the media and politicians accurately referred to the evidence. However, then went on to fabricate - or misconstrue, actually - any threats involving Iraq. Again, standard fair. There's a school shooting and that gets leveraged into cries for massive anti-gun legislation that they wanted anyhow on ideological grounds. The evidence is right there on the FBI website and other govt sources.
The truth is not being conspiratorially hidden. Around 11K people murdered each year with guns, but the vast majority of that is related to people involved in criminal activity in a few zip codes in the country and only a very tiny amount of that done with the type of guns that they want to ban first.
Nothing is hidden! The evidence is available to all. The spinning of 9/11 into a vague cause for an Iraq war is just more political opportunism like that applied to the Covid situation and school shootings. It is incorrect to infer that the govt caused 9/11 just because they used it after the fact. As I always say, just because you find vultures on road kill doesn't mean the vultures are conspiring with automobile drivers. Never underestimate the craven banality of politicians and the media. Character flaws and incompetence explain vastly more than 4D conspiracy theories. Anyone directing an agency is also a politician.
Bilderburgs, Davos et al? Hardly a secret conspiracy to take over the world and establish a one world government. Their ambitions can be read and understood in a number of readily available publications that they, themselves, release. The World Economic Forum is just one example. Yes, they want to take over the world, but they are up-front about it. Yes, China wants to weaken the US and become the world manufacturing and economic power center. This is also available in established publications, even the World Bank's. Just because the MSM and your politicians don't talk about it, doesn't make it a conspiracy with all of the connotations of
secrecy that implies. It's all right out in the open. Now compare that to what 9/11 "Truthers" want us to believe.
MK-ULTRA? So what? Proves what exactly? A handful of operatives working in a small intelligence program compartment did some bad things. Yep. That is true. Guess what? They got caught and were sanctioned. We know all know about it. Every organization has some bad actors. The key here is that we have the evidence. It was heard in Congress. So, again, no conspiratorial hiding of facts. There was no massive cover-up. You know why? Because once three or more living people are involved in a conspiracy, sooner or later one or more spill the beans. The nature of people is to fight and compete with each other. People are self-interested. Cooperation is rare and only temporary when it does occur. A conspiracy is an incredibly difficult thing to keep hidden.
The only challenge left is to be able to sift the wheat from the chaff when people come forward claiming to be a bean spiller. People fabricate stories for all kinds of reasons. People also have imperfect/incomplete information and imperfect memories, but that rarely stops them from speaking with authority. IMO, a lot of Alex's guests are trying to make themselves appear more relevant and knowledgeable than they really. They should be heard, but caution is advised.
Rant over.
