That’s a bit far teched. The Joker could very well be a rich guy with a happy family who suddenly had an epiphany that everything, including his happiness, is just one big joke.
When it comes to anti-thesises, Bane is probably closer to that description. Born in a poor country, his father ran away to escape…

He’s not wrong.

I like to think that the Joker is a parallel version of Bruce Wayne in which he was never rich.

I’d say that and the whole “a friggin 747 was flown into the building at high speed!”. People seem to forget the jet fuel didn’t act alone.

Apple Jacks, FTW

The program is ECHELON and they have been doing it for decades. Mostly, it is computers that do the listening as, otherwise, it would be impossible to manage.

My argument every time. Bush says we are invading Iraq because they have WDMs, we have super spys who can plant evidence. The world would have accepted a lie. We never found WMDs in Iraq.

The real conspiracy is the people that wrote the building codes that require fireproofing on steel beams. They’re all in the pocket of big fireproofing. Just think how much money they made selling all that fireproofing material for steel beams that 100% didn’t need it. It got knocked off by the airplane debris anyway,…

“You’re correct it can’t!” Then you walk away

My favorite is the idea that a secret faction of vampires has controlled key positions of mortal politics for millennia and that a worldwide Masquerade is employed to keep the mindless kine unaware of our...their...existence. We...I mean they...obliterate the environment as a way of controlling secret werewolf…

So many, so many. One of the crazier ones might be James Shelby Downard’s King Kill/33, where the assassination of JFK was a Masonic re-enactment of an ancient ritual where the leader was slaughtered for the growth of the land. It’s a study in over-reading coincidences, blended with something like Jessie L. Weston.

That is one of my favorite things about most government conspiracy theories/theorists. In one breath they’ll be talking about how stupid all government officials are, then in the next, they’ll be talking about One World Government, Illuminati, multi-part, decade long plans. You can have one or the other.

I once read a whole book that connected ley lines, ancient voyages to the Americas, the Waldseemuller map, and the ruins of Atlantis frozen under Antarctica. It was pretty glorious. That said, Antarctic Atlantis is my favorite. I just love the idea of a whole civilization hiding under the ice, waiting for us to find…

Personally, I think GW was innocent, but was surrounded by his dad’s cronies and given shit information. I mean GW seems like the president you would want to have at your party, but a diabolical orchestrator of war profiteering he is not. (That’s Cheney) Who else could write a book about why Afghanistan is impossible…

That Eisenhower had three occasions to meet with extraterrestrials of the “Nordic” variety in 1954 and reached an agreement that in exchange for exotic technological know-how, the U.S. government would give tacit sanction to the abduction of humans for genetic study.

Everyone knows you and your spouse had sex when they see your kid, so what do you care about people trying to see you two having sex? Right?

Loch Ness is a dinosaur who escaped extinction!
