Is that what chemtrails is? Something the government sprays over citizens to control us?

[–] Tyfud@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They don't understand how vapor works, so yes, they think chemtrails are governed mind control gas.

[–] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

To be fair, ungoverned mind control gas sounds irresponsible...

[–] StenSaksTapir@feddit.dk 10 points 11 months ago

Ungoverned is the way to go. It should only be used by private companies and then let capitalism regulate itself. It's a self-regulating system and if the consumers don't like mind controll gas, it'll eventually go away.

Yea but it's on the need to know basis, I am not allowed to say what it contains, sorry!

[–] istoff@lemmy.world 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It's totally true. It's coded into the office 365 license. Read it carefully to find the hidden messages. Wear a mask to defeat the cameras.

This is why my company sent me a webcam. It makes so much sense now!

It could work but it also fuels their conspiracy theory tendencies

If there was a way to poison their conspiracies to get them out of believing conspiracy theories that would be a better way of doing things

[–] jopepa@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Poison is sinister. How about microdosing reality?

This'll only happen once education is restructured almost entirely. Critical Thinking has not been on the menu for a long time (if ever), and it's not in the interest of the Powers That Be to increase critical thinking in individuals - people who really think tend to ask relevant, but uncomfortable questions.

Conspiracy theories are a side-effect of biased education.

[–] HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Are you suggesting that we should get rid of education to make people less susceptible conspiracies?

[–] kenopsik@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago

... once education is restructured almost entirely.

Not sure how you got "get rid of" from that statement...

[–] Arkaelus@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Yes, 100% my point! Who needs to know stuff when the Government and rich people are already looking out for our best interests? Poverty is a non-issue, everyone owns 2.5 houses per capita, this is a utopia! Books just ruin everything!

I dont know if you’ve noticed but a lot of these people can’t tell or understand trolling or faking content. Now on this level? Yeah. But it’s so so easy to be a poe in their midst.

My strategy has basically just been to go to their content, go into the comments, and then write something that I feel they’ll mostly agree with but crosses some kind of line.

Like if they’re talking about fluoride in drinking water you just say stuff like “screw the feds poisoning our water, we can find other ways to get hydrated. I just stick to diet cokes, works fine for me. I even cook with it so I don’t poison my food”

or how about skibidi toilet disabling the 5g chips inplanted via satellites

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Just tell them that voting is a reptilian conspiracy to steal testosterone so that enough of them stop that we can elect some representatives who will improve public education to the degree that people are generally less likely to believe conspiracy theories.

[–] Mannimarco@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I can't believe people this fucking stupid just walk around out there

[–] SonnyVabitch@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago (2 children)
[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And they drive. Probably in things that would have passed as armoured vehicles just a few decades ago.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They’re also having babies.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Babies that would have passed as armored babies just a few decades ago.

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I read that on the internets so it must be true. /S

And Joe Biden is giving away free robux /j

[–] euphoric_cat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 11 months ago

not only do they vote, but they are in power across the world 🤯🤯🤯

[–] tourist@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I want to believe that it's just a shitposting group, but my heart tells me they're fucking serious.

On a slightly related note I love it when someone shares a disinformation meme with "BREAKING NEWS" text slapped on and it's the most JPEG compressed image ever.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

My sister is 100% dumb enough to bite this shit.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 5 points 11 months ago

Let me take this opportunity to praise the hypersphere earth society. Legends of Agartha speak of people who have found tunnels leading ana from our world

This is the real truth hidden from us all

[–] ma1w4re@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

I loved it when they forced everyone to wear masks. Because now I can legally hide my face everywhere lol

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

What a griftable group
