“OJ Simpson Was Covering For His Son”: 21 Conspiracy Theories With Enough Evidence To Be True

When uncertainty and hardships spread across the world, such as during wars, economic depressions, and pandemics, people often grow suspicious of the ruling elite, creating all sorts of narratives about the challenging events.

However, not all of them sound as ridiculous as flat Earthers. So Reddit user Specific_Shop_3975 posted a question on the platform, asking, "What's a conspiracy with the most evidence to back it up?"

From modern art to NSFW Steam games, here are some of the most popular suspects.

“OJ Simpson Was Covering For His Son”: 21 Conspiracy Theories With Enough Evidence To Be True modern art is just money laundering nobody pays 2.2 million for a blank canvas
u/Zigxy added:
The brilliance of modern art money laundering can't be understated. For example:

Alfred wants to pay Brad $100k for a bribe.

Brad wants this money to be 'clean' to avoid authorities looking into him.
Brad 'sells' a worthless modern art piece for $100k.
Alfred has now successfully transferred the bribe to Alfred. However, Brad is now in possession of a painting which the 'market' says is worth $100k. Down the line the Alfred might be able to sell this now 'valuable' piece of art to a third party for $50k, $100k, or potentially at a profit!

“OJ Simpson Was Covering For His Son”: 21 Conspiracy Theories With Enough Evidence To Be True That our governments are turning us all against each other to distract us from the blatant wealth manipulation, corrupt practices, nepotism, cronyism, among hundreds of other big issue things. Their plans working a treat and the people as a whole can't see what's happening and start working together against it..

We are losing our privacy, our rights and our sense of connection with one another. We drift away while they get more and more powerful. People hand away their rights like they're going to get them back and never question it when it's not.

Our planet had to deal with another of the world powers attempts at control and that's COVID or should I say the reaction to it. I was always a believer it happened naturally but as time goes on it becomes more apparent it wasn't.

We are bodies hanging from the roof being bled dry slowly but if this keeps up we aren't just f****d like a world war or nuclear war, if we don't do anything we will lose whatever control we have and we will never get it back.

This was the point of conspiracy theory saturation. All the crazy Qanon BS came to a head that day and all the conspiracies were on display. These people conspired to overthrow the USA and when that failed, they tried to blame the political left and accused them of an even stranger more convoluted conspiracy. Some people actually believe that all those peopel in red MAGA hats that day were actually Antifa. I know Antifa. I know people in Antifa. They are incapable of that level of organization. Antifa couldn't organize a birthday party much less an insurrection. No, Jan. 6th was what it was. An attempt by MAGA to overthrow the US government and nothing else.

“OJ Simpson Was Covering For His Son”: 21 Conspiracy Theories With Enough Evidence To Be True In the UK there was a recent boom in American sweet shops that sold grossly overpriced import candy. They were suddenly everywhere after COVID, they didn’t sell much, but they were everywhere. Someone on TikTok theorised that they were all money laundering fronts, people started filming in the shops laughing at the prices, and staff always seemed to get really angry about it. Then it was announced last year (?) that there was a HMRC (UK’s tax wing of government) investigation started because the theory held water, and suddenly they all shut. The one in Leeds centre near Trinity currently has a notice of abandonment in the window and you can see the shelves are still stocked: the owners just ran off and left it. Sounds like another successful case for the TikTok detectives.

The undersized glove started off as an adult's size. When it was found it was covered in a lot of blood, once it was dried it shrank. The leather was really wrinkled which was caused by the lining shrinking, by the time it was used as an exhibit in the trial it wouldn't fit any adult.

u/hagantic42 added:
Dude it's not even a conspiracy theory. The German consulate took out a two-page ad in the New York times telling people to not board because they were going to sink it. Also, at the time Britain didn't have an option but to sail the ship because it was carrying so many munitions that they desperately needed. Both governments knew the risks and they needed it to galvanize support.

The Bilderberg group. Every year in summer, they meet, and people keep track of who are there. Guest lists every year. Top politicians, royalty, corporate owners. Extreme security. No protocols. There is confirmation from a variety of these people that they were there. So, what do they talk about? Are they coordinated somehow after each meeting? How much influence do they have? Well, given the extreme security, it's difficult to say. I am sure it's nothing, though. Why would those groups of people want to influence the world to suit their agendas, right?

“OJ Simpson Was Covering For His Son”: 21 Conspiracy Theories With Enough Evidence To Be True Not proven yet as correlation doesn't equal causation...

Use of leaded gasoline poisoned generations of children lowering their IQs and increasing violent behavior. And the auto and gas companies knew the health risks but didn't care. This lead to the huge rise in crime during the 1970s and 1980s and into the early 90s. And when leaded gasoline was banned, the generations and people since that didn't grow up breathing in lead contaminated air were less violent and lead to the sharp decrease in violence since the 1990s. The curves match up almost perfectly. But there were other factors that could have affected it, increase use in crack, heroin, and drug abuse, state violence, racism, etc.

“OJ Simpson Was Covering For His Son”: 21 Conspiracy Theories With Enough Evidence To Be True That these weird low quality NSFW games that pop out in the Steam popular list until you turn NSFW content off are money laundering targets to cash in Steam gift cards obtained via various phone scams. Steam gets their 30% of the stolen money, so they don't mind and ultimately it is super difficult to prove that real people do not buy the games since nobody would ever admit to buying them.
u/Flowchart83 added:
Damn, that's actually a good idea if you had to launder money. It could be completely automated at a large scale. If someone gets suspicious as to why so many are purchased, 'people are perverts' is a believable explanation.

Conspiracies happen every day. There’s a global conspiracy of adults to convince kids Santa is real - it’s not necessarily a bad thing, but it’s a conspiracy.

Somewhere along the line, the word got hijacked and it immediately discredits whoever says it. It’s practically a trap to use the word, so you have to dance around it if you want to describe people planning things in secret

So, UFOs are coming here so often that there is a crash retrieval team and yet they're not regularly witnessed by the masses--just some people here and there. If they're here so often that we need crash retrieval teams--wouldn't they be seen as often as we seen our own planes? Also, ships from beyond our solar system have the technology to travel all this way (and apparently avoid detection), but somehow they crash so often that we need crash retrieval programs? UFOs, little green men, grays--are all some of my favorite topics. I love the idea of us being visited. But people are just willing to believe anything, even when it makes zero sense. The only things being retrieved and reversed engineered are human made aircraft from other countries.

What! Nobody claiming that the USA deliberately started the war between Russia and the Ukraine. How, by convincing Putin using a false flag operation that NATO was going to site nuclear ICBMs in Ukraine on the Russian border aimed at Moscow. Why? Because fracking is expensive, so US oil couldn't compete with cheaper Russian oil on a open market. So force Europe and other countries to embargo Russian oil, blow up a Russian gas pipeline. The USA reaps over $100 billion benefit from the war in Ukraine in oil sales.

There's a dumpling place at my local mall which is absolutely 100% a money laundering front and nothing will convince me otherwise. Why? Well, they occupy a prime spot which must cost an absolute fortune in rent and yet they never do any business at all (in the brief period that they did the food was so awful it made me ill) to the point that there isn't even anyone behind the counter. Sometimes you can see a couple of people hanging around in the kitchen doing nothing, but that's it. In fact the lights out the front aren't even turned on any more. And yet somehow it's been at least two years and they haven't gone out of business. It's even become a local joke that nobody actually buys their dumplings.
