    There was an old conspiracy, back before conspiracy theories were mainstreamed and it all became super fascist, that the US was going to fake an alien contact crisis as a way to establish NWO.

    I brought this up as a joke with the monolith shit the other day but with this on top of it they might actually be going for it lol

    I doubt it though.

      Majestic 12 was another old one that basically claimed that ET controlled the United States and only a select group of fat cats knew about it.

      Turned out to be some sort of CIA or DIA disinformation op.

      Everyone here should watch the documentary Mirage Men. The government has a weird obsession with fucking with UFO people to the point of driving some of them completely insane

        I was thinking Disney must have bought the rights to 2001: A Space Odyssey and were hyping their shitty sequel

        Yeah I meant overtly fash. Conspiracy theory groups have always been politically stupid as shit, just not always as bad as they are now

          McVeigh bombed OKC because he was terrified of the NWO.

          I guess settler-militias in the west were more cryptofash back in the day, but most of us have always seen them for what they were. Black helicopter NWO shit is anti-semitic and fash to its roots.

            I mean I was a dumbass kid at the time I was reading about this stuff so the fascistic tendencies of it all probably went over my head.

            If I went back and re-read through it instead of just vaguely remembering it I'd probably would have worded things more in line with what you're saying.

              No doubt. Having trump to focus on definitely let a lot of them go more mask off.
