"Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you." - Joseph Heller, Catch-22 My wife told me our younger son does not believe humans ever walked on the moon. My guess, based on prior conversations, is that he does believe UFOs carrying aliens from other worlds have visited Earth. I know he believes in supernatural events. His critical thinking skills are weak. I searched the internet for a quiz to assess one’s susceptibility to conspiratorial thinking and easily found a couple of them. I thought of asking my son to complete one and comparing his results to mine. Before proposing that to him, I decided to take the two quizzes myself. Although my susceptibility to conspiratorial thinking is less than average, I was surprised to test positive for some conspiratorial thinking, particularly about government influence by powerful persons. I quickly realized that answers suggesting my susceptibility to conspiratorial thinking were mostly informed by what I have observed during the last two years. So I retook the quizzes and answered the items based on my thinking just a couple years ago. My revised results then showed conspiracies to have little effect on my thinking. Perhaps thinking that would have been considered conspiratorial when the quizzes were designed (e.g., wealthy persons have excessive policy influence and suppress technology that could benefit society) is less conspiratorial today? #Catch22 #Conspiracy #Misinformation #Disinformation #Corruption #Politics #Government #Society

Disgraced former #LiberalPartypolitician #DarylMaguire’s insistence he knew nothing of a #conspiracy to create false visa applications for #Chinese nationals has been rejected by a jury, AAP reports. Maguire, the 67-year-old former member for #WaggaWagga, was found guilty in the Downing Centre district court on Friday of conspiring to create the bogus applications for 10 Chinese nationals purporting to employ them at businesses in the #NSW #Riverina region. As a result of the verdict, it can be revealed Maguire’s conviction and subsequent jail sentence from a previous #corruption probe were wiped on appeal in the lead-up to the visa trial. Maguire, whose #clandestine relationship with then-premier #GladysBerejiklian triggered her exit from politics, was convicted of #misleading a corruption probe about potential profits from a major property deal. Judge Justin Smith in March upheld Maguire’s appeal, quashing his conviction and ordering the charge be dismissed. The crown had alleged Maguire misled the #IndependentCommissionAgainstCorruption (#ICAC) about his dealings with former Sydney councillor #MichaelHawatt on a potential property development, in which Maguire could have received about $720,000 in commission. The corruption probe, including recorded phone calls discussing the development, triggered Maguire’s retirement from parliament in 2018. #auspol #NSWpolhttps://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/live/2026/jul/17/australia-news-live-telstra-mobile-outage-parliament-inquiry-royal-commission-antisemitism-ai-anthony-albanese-labor-liberals-coalition-politics-ntwnfb?page=with%3Ablock-6a59adee8f085bcdc00818a0#block-6a59adee8f085bcdc00818a0

Y’all remember a ways back when I said 3 major #egg producers were scamming the country, and that #avianflu was not causing the price surges, it was price fixing, cause I can do basic addition? And industry executives and analysts were saying that there was nothing to see except a supply shock of a disease killing lots of hens. As one industry executive put it at the time, it’s all just “supply disruption, ‘act of God’ type stuff.” Yeah. It was a #conspiracy to fix prices. Emails between each other writing down the damn conspiracy. They made billions. Guess how much they have to pay in fines? If you guessed less than 1%, you’ve been paying attention to the #kakistocracy. Eat the rich. https://www.thebignewsletter.com/p/crime-pays-the-egg-bandits-made-a

Two earthquakes hit Venezuela 39 seconds apart. The largest oil reserves in the world are right below. Nobody is connecting the dots. I been following the money for years now. The great reset, the petrodollar collapse, Hormuz, the tokenization of everything. And sometimes you find something that just does not fit the official narrative and you cannot stop thinking about it. June 24, 2026. Venezuela. Two earthquakes. 7.2 and 7.5 magnitude. Thirty nine seconds apart. 45 kilometers between them. That is not a mainshock and an aftershock. Aftershocks are always smaller than the main event, always, that is literally how seismology works. A 7.5 hitting 39 seconds after a 7.2 in a different location is not an aftershock. It is a second independent event. The USGS called it a “severe seismic doublet” which sounds very technical and explains absolutely nothing. Now here is where it gets interesting. Yaracuy state, where this happened, is not a major seismic zone. Venezuela has earthquake history along the Caribbean plate boundary near the coast. But Yaracuy has no record of earthquakes anywhere near this magnitude in centuries. The tectonic explanation does not fit. What does fit is something the USGS has actually documented since the 1960s and almost nobody talks about. Fluid injection associated with oil and gas extraction induces seismicity. This is not conspiracy theory. This is peer reviewed science from the same institution that classified this doublet and said nothing about what is happening directly below it. Venezuela has the largest oil reserves on the planet. 270 billion barrels in the Orinoco Belt. That oil is extra heavy crude, so viscous you cannot extract it without injecting massive volumes of steam and water at high pressure into the subsurface. In 2026, with Hormuz closed and global oil prices through the roof, production in the Orinoco was at its most aggressive level in history. Every additional barrel required more fluid injection. More pressure on geological formations that were already loaded with tectonic stress. Oklahoma went from two magnitude 3 earthquakes per year to hundreds after wastewater injection from oil production. That is documented. Groningen in Netherlands had hundreds of induced earthquakes from gas extraction destroying thousands of buildings. The mechanism is understood and accepted by mainstream science. Fluid injection reduces the friction holding faults locked. The fault slips. If tectonic stress was already accumulated underneath, that slip can be catastrophic. Now follow the money. With Hormuz closed since February 2026, the pressure to maximize production from the Orinoco was enormous. Every barrel from Venezuela was a barrel that relieved pressure on global markets. Every barrel required more injection. More alteration of the subsurface. More stress on formations underneath Yaracuy. And then the earth moved. Twice. In 39 seconds. There is a documented scientific mechanism connecting aggressive oil extraction to induced seismicity, Venezuela was experiencing the most aggressive extraction in its history, a seismic event that does not fit tectonic models just killed people, and nobody in western media is asking the question. Why is the USGS, which documented induced seismicity in Oklahoma and Texas extensively, not sending a team to investigate whether extraction in the Orinoco played a role? Why are the same media that covered Groningen induced earthquakes for years completely silent about this possibility in Venezuela? Follow who benefits from Venezuelan oil production continuing without interruption. Follow who needs those barrels while Hormuz is closed. Follow who would prefer that the question of extraction-induced seismicity in the Orinoco never gets asked officially. #conspiracy #earthquakes #venezuela #greatreset reddit.com/r/conspiracy/s/n0Oz8MrEWe

@hannaB@social.vir.group @wordmark@mas.to I, too, hope the lizard-people are in charge, steering the ship, rather than the ship(s) of state(s) being subjected to the brownian-motion soup of feedback loops... But, alas... #economics #money #conspiracy #cybernetics #finance

First Moon landing in 53 years. Historic achievement. Humanity's greatest moment. Launched on April Fools' Day. During an unpopular war. While the world is focused on Epstein. And not a single independent satellite from China, Russia, or India saw anything. The silence from Moscow and Beijing is deafening. They have cameras over Florida. They show empty sky. But NASA has beautiful videos. Very beautiful. The most beautiful videos. This is not skepticism. This is pattern recognition. https://newsgroup.site/artemis-ii-moon-mission-crew-april-2026/ #MoonLanding #Artemis #NASAFAKE #AprilFools #Conspiracy #USA #Moon #Space

Artemis II 2026: місячна місія чи великий PR-трюк Трампа?

NASA каже: Artemis II вже летить до Місяця. Але є 5 питань, на які адміністрація Трампа досі не відповіла. Незалежний аналіз місії, яку ніхто не купив.
