Your pulse is like a mirror of your feelings and thoughts. If you lie but convince yourself to be dead calm, it will read as the truth.

“What Conspiracy Theory Do You Believe To Your Core But Have No Evidence For?” (30 Answers) More and more I believe big industrial groups create fake product shortages in order to increase prices and push people to purchase things that they don't need (in fear of lacking something).

Examples in France this year:

- Semiconductor shortage and now the price of a new car has almost increased by 30%
- Sunflower oil missing for weeks and went from 3€ per liter to 6,50€ "because of war in Ukraine" when the sunflower oil was already stocked and the future seeds were to be harvested months afterward.
- Mustard, same shortage, same overpricing, same lame explanations, when you could buy tons of French mustard in foreign countries at a lower cost.
- Gas/petrol these days, several reasons given (at first it was due to the success of a commercial operation, then a strike in refineries, and today no explanations at all and still many gas stations are closed or have just one type of fuel.

Some people blame the lack of foreseeing of industrial groups who didn't buy enough to meet the demand, I think it's done totally on purpose, less storage, fewer workers, fewer logistics, same income.

His life closely resembles the plots of several of Shakespeare's plays and de Vere visited Venice where he got in trouble with Jewish merchants. He had a library with over a thousand books, many of which had underlined passages that were later incorporated into plays. Since an Earl couldn't be a playwright, he got semi-illiterate grain merchant Shak-sper (who only had a fifth grade education and never traveled abroad) to be his front.

Bread & milk not selling that well? 'There's a massive snowstorm coming that will last days!'.

Meat sales down? 'You can expect high temperatures as a heatwave moves in!'

Eggs and flour? 'Heavy rain is expected to continue for the next 2 weeks!'

The forecast is hardly ever accurate when they predict extreme weather. Yet when they forecast light showers throughout the day, it floods down like Victoria falls!

This is silly and not a true conspiracy theory but I like to refer to it as one. This is all based on observation and could be wildly incorrect, but I don't think so.

In my city, we have Rotating Trees. This is a continuous rotation of saplings at many locations, until they disappear somewhere. So for example, the smallest saplings tend to get moved to the median strip on most of our roads. They get left there for a number of years to grow, get lights on them around this time of year, etc, and then those saplings get moved into the verge in front of many houses. At some point those saplings at the verge get too large and are then moved...elsewhere. All of this is to make up for the fact that our unification of trees via this method are very prone to acquiring disease or getting attacked by bugs en masse, resulting in the occasional removal of affected trees across all properties.

It's clever if you think about it - a continual source of young trees are being brought in to, I think, eventually replace the trees that suffer in folks' front yards. It's done very quietly, efficiently, and it manages to keep the city fairly green. The only problem is that the presence of the same tree everywhere, aside from the likelihood of a bulk of them suffering, is that Autumn can be very boring. I suppose that's a small price to pay.

I’d say that the Germans had a secret base in Antarctica.

I’ll tell you the story.

Before World War One, the Norwegians were waging in Antarctic waters. To extend the stay of their vessels, they had erected supply dumps on various islands.

When World War One broke out, the British, fearing the German navy might make use of these supply dumps, burned them all down. This pissed of teh Norwegians but thats beside the point.

So when Karl Dönitz became commander of the German submarine fleet, he came up with the idea to hide supplies in the Antarctic so his submarines could be deployed for much longer periods and operate in the South Atlantic.

Obviously such dumps had to be hidden, and the German Navy found a natural cave with access to open water. This was ideal to hide supplies and shelter a submarine.

They did deposit some supplies, but when war broke out the whole plan was cancelled.

The British found the cave in late 1945 (when it is Summer in the Antarctic) and blew up the supplies.

This eventually evolved into a secret base with aliens and UFOs.

I believe in the *IDEA* of the simulation theory. Where I offramp at is in one, acting like that means other people aren't "real" bc they're NPCs, and two acting like it means a Matrix type dystopia/evil corporation situation. I think it's more like an MMO in a miltipurpose game like Animal Crossing or The Sims: Some of us are here as vacation, perhaps others to learn a skill, others yet perhaps as some form of punishment or to learn a particularly hard lesson. As to why we'd need something so elaborate to do that... I'd say time dilation. Our dreams are NOWHERE near as long as we feel like they are. This is due to the fact our brain is working on it's own; it isn't having to send out/receive signals from and for multiple things. It's just your brain in pure reaction time. This is why time appears to slow down during dangerous situations: our brains have began working in such a similar fashion. I say all this loose stuff to point out that in a simulation type situation, you'd likely be in some kind or form of sleep, at least as far as your brain is concerned. We could learn those skills or lessons in a fraction of the time inside a simulation while wasting very little of it in "reality".

So we all know there’s no real evidence to whether the universe is infinite or in a box as both are incapable of being comprehended. So what if the universe is in a sort cage (doesn’t matter if it’s a box or anything, although it would make sense to be a multiple dimensions) and the universe isn’t really expanding, but shrinking to fit in newly created matter perfectly evenly so that it’s not noticeable? So what we call microscopic as actually waaaaaay smaller than what would actually be microscopic?

The infinite universe, and us, exist in a simulation. The counterpoint to such sophistry is always that the universe is so vast that it seems like an enormous waste just to make us. But the more you know about programming, the less that seems like an argument than a validation. It takes pages of lines of code just to make something as simple as a midi play, and play right, and not mess up everything else. The whole “dark web” can exist because most of the internet is like an iceberg where the bottom 95% exists to make the remaining visible 5% function. So I find it entirely reasonable to suppose that in order to run as complex a simulation as “reality” would require also programming huge swaths of empty space and lifeless worlds to allow the possibility that one could produce us so the game could proceed.

Isn't that horrible. He loved his fans but all he really wanted was to be left alone. So I'm 100% certain that he faked his death. First of all the doctor that tried to save him did the external cardiac massage on a bed, although everyone knows that you can only do this on hard surfaces. No medical professional would have done that. It's just a stupid excuse. Than there are some blurry pictures that show that something on a stretcher is carried OUT of the ambulance shortly after they carried his "corpes" into the wagon. Around a year after photos published that seemed to show him in the back of his daughters car.
I'm sure he's not in the states anymore but maybe somewhere on an island just living in peace.

the top couple of theories are well written and fairly likely, but the farther you go down, the more lunatics’ invalid opinions you come across. This was a good idea, but I fear you’ve attracted the crazies on this one.

Not a conspiracy theory but I believe that movies aren't actually getting any worse. We always hear people complaining that "scary movies used to be good" or "modern movies just don't compare", but really it's us that changed. Movies aren't scary anymore because we are desensitized, plots aren't exciting or surprising because we've seen everything before.

There's this one theory that falls under the category of "we can't prove it's true or false so we just have to put up with it." It's called the One Electron theory, and it basically states that there is only a single electron in the universe. It moves faster than light and space-time, so it can be everywhere at once. Stupidest sh!t I've ever heard but it's hilarious to me

I think gay people are gods way of testing if Christians actually love their neighbor, bc why would he make us if we were a sin?

As a Christian I completely agree. When people say gays are going to hell and I just say "Then why did God make them? We believe that God doesn't make mistakes, yet it sounds like you're saying he made a mistake." Nine times out of ten I get a blank stare and they walk away. We're called to love everyone, yet a lot of Christians ignore that and it infuriates me.

I believe that all people sense colour differently. Like the colour my brain interprets as red could be the colour you interpret as blue. And everyone has the same favourite colour, we just know it by different names

I have a theory (ik im hella late) bing, a show on CBeebies. He is abused by his real parents and sort of has his own little world where his toys are his parents that love him and care for him. Flop is literally a toy, so is Emma. Still kinda working on that theory but it is there

May I add a theory? Nessie isn't a Relic Plesiosaur,its a freshwater Whale, a freshwater toothed whale at that, that evolved in isolation from all other Whales once Loch Ness got cut off near completely from the oceans nearby. Or maybe its a subspeciesof greenland Shark. Definitely not an ancient marine reptile.

Not necessarily a conspiracy theory but still not an overly common theory:Black holes spawn new universes within them. It's a fascinating theory.

Once in Minecraft I set the world to the ‘flat setting’ and while I was playing a was singing a goofy little song like ‘the earth it flat! Will I fall off? There are no oceans, or houses of mountains! Because the earth is flat! It’s just dirt and grass. I might fall off! Will I fall off?” And my parents go “no! I thought we established this! It’s round! ROUND I TELL YOU! ROUNDDDDDDD!!!!”

I have one, but I’m so late to the party I doubt anyone will see it, but…. I believe that Coco Pops are a massive failure, they couldn’t get them to retain the chocolate flavouring once the milk was added, hence the slogan “so chocolately they even turn the milk brown” to make the failure into a feature!

But this underlies my whole point - _you_ know this, and _i_ know this, but people with a sub-par education do NOT, and believe the propaganda they're told about all the benefits of a military career rather than college. My own exceptionally intelligent son who is in the navy as a nuclear engineer was astounded to realize he had to get a civilian degree in order to be an engineer after enlistment. THEY DONT KNOW OR UNDERSTAND HOW IT REALLY WORKS, so the military IS the employer of last resort in heavily urban and rural areas. Coincidence that the systematic attack on formalized national educational standards (and the repeated republican party calls to disband the cabinet level department of education)

Didn't let me finish... Coincide with the end of the draft? I don't think so. National service requirements (like many other countries have), including non-military options, would be a great thing, but we'll never see it in this country.

Not a conspiracy theory exactly, but it’s hard for me to think of humans as a thing that can comprehend emotions and challenges. Sometimes I’ll look at someone and just think ‘oh my god. That’s a living, breathing, human being who feels pain, and happiness and confusion just like me’ I’m just weird lol. It makes me feel kind of like a shitty person though😅. I try to be empathetic and nice to people. But in my mind I only really see them as a part of my own life story, if anyone really knows what I’m talking about

it depends on how you define stupidity aswell as what you compare us to. Compared to something such as a horse, we're pretty smart.

The USA uses us as test subjects. They hide carcinogens in our food and water and when we get the big " C" not if we get but when we get it. It " C" allows the medical field to comment malpractice legally.

Not a conspiracy theory exactly, but wouldn’t it be crazy if all history was a lie/vice versa where the bad guys lied to look like a victim (example: slavery, what if Africans enslaved Asians instead of whites enslaving Africans. Or what if America was taxing British and the Brits protested and dumped tea/coffee into the river. Or what if none of this crazy history s**t ever happened and historians were just being silly and everyone thinks they were being serious)

I do believe it was Prince Philip who orchestrated Diana's and Dodi's "accident." She was in a relationship with an Egyptian - shock horror. She was only 36 and loved being a mum. No-one could ever accuse the Queen's husband of anything. He had the motive and the means and the ruthlessness.

Yes he definitely went to MI6 and ordered her assassination and they said right away sir and set out their ingenious assassination plan - a sniper? Don't be so foolish. Poison? How old hat. Fake a drug overdose - too easy. Make it look like suicide - boring. No, we'll organise a high speed chase with a load of photographers and journalists through a densely populated city. What could go wrong? And everyone knows car crashes are the best way to kill someone, no one ever survives those. /s
