That society is secretly being controlled by a vast all encompassing patriarchal conspiracy (made up of everybody and yet nobody) to "continue to oppress" (western) women via paying them a few cents less, and by continuing to enjoy basic human sexual nature in a non-approved/deadly serious manner at all times.

I don't know about 'favourite', but I accidentally read some anti-vaxx comments on youtube, yesterday... and there's some SERIOUSLY crazy stuff out there.

That one is easily debunked by asking "why are all the highest-paid women white?"

Not a very serious one, and I don't know if it counts as a conspiracy as well. But the New England Patriots deflategate was one I was around when it supposedly happened. I know nothing about American Football, other than well, balls. However there was a ruckus around based on it and I heard people around me expressing disapproval over the ball being deflated. Why do I like it? I was there to see the reaction.

On the first paragraph, if the football is deflated, it has more range to be thrown and can be thrown farther, meaning that you can score touchdowns faster. Also the Patriots are hated af bc of their unprecedented success and the fact they scored the best Quarterback (the man who throws the ball to a receiver-Coach duo in NFL history after the start of the New Millennium, so that's why the conspiracy was so widespread.

The conspiracy is rooted more on the connection that a team called "Patriots" suddenly became champion mere months after 9/11., after years of being mediocre at best.

They'r'e just going to vaccinate, when 99% of the world population has taken them. It won't take much to convince them.

never has pointing at a fossil record disabused conspiracists
in their eyes, contrary evidence is merely confirmation of the conspiracy by documenting the lengths gone to to cover-up "the truth"
the path to clarity is through undoing the pattern recognition hijacking, not pointing out the billions of flaws in their belief structure

My personal favourite conspiracy is that climate change is a UN conspiracy.
So sweet, yet so sour

That's been pretty hackneyed. I yawn every time I hear that now.

It was also true, brady's balls were somewhat deflated .

One theory popular every election season is that the current defense minister is a sadist who, during his army service years, would cut off the ears of dead East TImorese rebels for his personal collection. However, he was later captured by the East Timorese and had his balls cut off as revenge, thus explaining why his wife would later divorce him. Luckily, his platoon was saved by a guy named Hercules, who later became the mafia boss ruling over a large marketplace in the capital city.

Really, there seems to be an endless stream of conspiracies if politics is involved, since there are people who would benefit form it. Especially when mysticism is involved. Many who claimed to be able to see paranormal entities for example claimed that they saw an ancient army patrolling in the air, sent by the Spirit Queen who rules over the seas south of Java, guarding both presidential inaugurations of 2014 and 2019. This suggests that the Indonesian government has conducted deals with the spirit kingdom down south in the interest of national security.

ALIENS

Probably that the moon landing was staged.
Well, to be honest it was. We didn't just accidentally land someone on the Moon.
There was probably some planning to it.

Actually we were meant to go to Mars, but the scientists at NASA miscalculated and we hit the moon instead.

the moon landing was staged by the us government, who hired kubrick to direct the filming
kubrick, however, was so dedicated to his craft he insisted they film on-location

And took 269 takes on each scene. There was a 4th astronaut. He got sick of Kubrick and quit during the 8rh day of filming.

Oh, I forgot the one about how some famous people like Obama and Dave Chapelle have been “changed” by doubles who are controlled by who the fuck knows who. The government? Yeah. That one’s funny to listen to because there are YT channels dedicated to that conspiracy. And the tubers go deep.

Before wackados could get websites or run for the nomination of isolated Republican districts I ran across this massive treatise on aliens that have come to Earth Secret Invasion style, having replaced George Bush the Senior during a fishing trip among others. All the planets where the invaders came from had a single letter followed by several a’s. Like Yaaaaaaaaaaaa or Xaaaaaaaaaaaa etc. Dunno why. I took notes since it was also before we all had cameras in our pockets. It was posted on a temporary sidewalk near a construction sight in Berkeley.

Whiling away time in a train station in Switzerland a long while ago I entertained some people who were telling me how the NWO was planning on putting barcode IDs on all our wrists, tying in with some Bible thing about the mark of the devil, and if you look at barcodes they have two long lines at the beginning, middle and end, and these denote the number 6, so 666.. and some other stuff I forget but it was all very entertaining as I waited for my train.
