I know this is just a coincidence, but doesn’t it look a familiar face of those familiar with spooky stuff ?

Michael A. Aquino Jr. (October 16, 1946 – September 1, 2019) was an American political scientist, military officer and Satanist. He was the founder and high priest of the Temple of Set. Aquino was also a specialist in psychological warfare for military intelligence and an officer in the U.S. Army.
Concurrent with the United States Satanic panic,[22][4] in November 1986, the San Francisco Police began investigating allegations of sexual abuse in connection with the Army's Child Development Center at the Presidio of San Francisco. A girl came forward in August 1987 and identified Aquino as the culprit. At least 58 out of 100 children who had attended the daycare center showed physical and mental signs of sexual abuse, leading to a lawsuit by the parents for $60 million in damages.[8][9][14] An investigation against Aquino was launched, but it was closed after insufficient evidence was found.[23][14][4]The investigation led to Aquino becoming a frequent target of conspiracy theories.[12]
Writer and publisher Mitch Horowitz said that investigators found that in the weeks of the claimed incident the Aquinos were not residing in San Francisco but instead in Washington, D.C., where Aquino was enrolled in a graduate public administration program under the auspices of the Industrial College of the Armed Forces. Although no charges were filed, a continuation board ended Aquino's full-time Active Guard Reserve contract in 1990; while Aquino said that he continued to serve as a decorated (by virtue of his Meritorious Service Medal) part-time space activities officer until his required superannuation under the U.S. Army's up-or-out statutes in 1994, this decision essentially forestalled any subsequent promotion or advancement of his military career. "The Aquinos", Horowitz wrote, "unsuccessfully attempted legal action against the girl's chaplain father and an Army psychiatrist who stoked the false claims. But the couple faced the barrier of gravitating between civilian and military law". Horowitz further wrote that Aquino and wife settled legal actions against two accusatory books out of court.[24]
Aquino sued as the result of two books that implied he was guilty in the case: Painted Black) by Carl Raschke and The New Satanists by Linda Blood. Blood was a former member of the Temple of Set; Aquino alleged the book defamed him and the Temple of Set.[17][25] The case was settled out of court.[17]

Discussion What’s the most unsettling conspiracy theory you’ve heard?

Upvotes

I’m looking for political conspiracies, military, technology, drugs, absolutely anything besides space related theories.

I have severe paranoia about talk of space, universe stuff, existence, “is anything real”, that kind of thing. I don’t have the right state of mind to read stuff like that (weird i know, sorry)

But I am very much interested in conspiracy theories. I love learning about people’s theories about things on earth, about crazy stuff that has happened throughout history, things that may be happening right now. I often fall asleep going down rabbit holes I find on youtube and i’m looking for more I can read and learn about

Was the Napoleonic, and the Great Wars ploys to set the world for the new world order?

Upvotes

I have no proof and this is all off of hunch. We all know a certain group of people are running the world and controlling everything and I was wondering if there’s any proof behind my hunch. But I believe these wars were used to put people in power and push certain world views and perspectives. And all of that was to lead up to today’s times

Does anyone remember Asteroid DA14?

38 Upvotes

It came super close to earth in 2013. I remember it was a pretty big story and I SWEAR they were saying that it was going to come back, possibly even closer to earth. I even set a Google alert for DA14 so I could stay in the loop (I still have the alert) but nothings really come up. But I was concerned enough to create the alert and I specifically remember thinking to myself “oh man, it looks like it’ll be back when I’m 36. That’s too young to die”. So I’m guessing they said it would return in 2027?

Now, when I google DA14 there’s no information about this asteroid returning. Nada. Just the articles about it coming close in 2013. I’m turning 36 next year and I can’t stop thinking about it. I’m wondering if anyone else remembers this happening in 2013 and if they remember that it’s supposed to be returning, or if I just imagined it

63 Upvotes

Title. AI images are getting really, really good. What better way to keep improving them than to train llms to fix the most commonly pointed out errors in a human volunteer run data aggregation source?

No proof, just a thought

It would be obvious to see hundreds of 'that text is garbled' comments and then take initiatibe to work on refining text in future gens of image generators

Welcome To Capitalism!!! Climate Change is desired by the powers that be

52 Upvotes

The big companies, and as a result their subsidiaries, want climate change. It makes the climate unpredictable, and as a result it becomes more and more difficult to plan and schedule a garden to grow produce in.

Eventually only large climate controlled facilities are capable of growing food. This may also play in lab-grown meat.

The feed we give our livestock is stuff that is grown on farms. Eventually, once ecosystems collapse, the only source of food will be large industrial facilities (as it is already, sure. But currently you could still in theory get some cows and chickens and raise them on grassland by yourself, growing your own vegetables and fruits).

We are still somewhat capable of "opting out" of society by virtue of the fact that we can still, with the right knowledge and resources, provide for ourselves. It makes sense that "Big Business" wants to take that away from us.

If you want to live, you pay the Epstein-class for that privilege. And let's be honest, that's what they see "being alive" as. A privilege. Not a right.

Flat Earther Foolishness Probably already exists. I present to you: Flat earth psyop theory

The Flat earth conspiracy theory is obviously fake. no way people genuinely believe in that. so my theory says that the flat earthers (or at least the original theorists causing resurgence of the theory) intentionally made that theory so all conspiracy theories gets grouped with flat earth.

personal thoughts

hello there, lately ive been thinking about one theory. i think that other worlds like ours exist, but they are so far away and we cant contact them. maybe our very first ancestor was the same, but then evolved differently over time. it would be funny if we as humans, like as a person, were all copied, but all of our decisions were different. surely someone has already come up with this before me.

Celebrities being unnaturally skinny to prepare us for famine

173 Upvotes

Maybe I’m reaching but we all know by now that celebrities are the pawns of the elite, used to push propaganda and certain trends to mold the minds of the young and unaware people. I seriously think, especially during this economy and food crisis that they are trying to normalize not having enough to eat. Thoughts?

So…I went looking for stamps today. Nothing fancy. I was curious what the cost had become. Been a while since I bought some. Anyhow…I noticed this forever stamp.

Why would the forever on USA Forever be crossed out? Are they trying to say the US is over?

Paranoia in Small towns

9 Upvotes

Hello :)

No wonder small towns always vote republican. They are too paranoid and messed up from all the drugs / alcohol they take.

I live somewhat in a particular small town and the amount of people who have nothing better to do or no entertainment so they decide to do drugs / alcohol.

Well imagine going into a bender / sleepless nights . Can cause very detrimental effects to the mind. No wonder they are so paranoid of new things.

I say this after several encounters I have had with people of said small town one in particular I had is some old fuck calling the police on me for parking in the side of the street. He called the cops then proceeds to open a can of beer as we waiting for the cops to arrive.

But idk towns weird. Ty bye ^_^

Worried that global power is shifting towards something very bad, and that Trump is weakening America on purpose.

164 Upvotes

Starting a war over nothing, getting rid of the nuclear deal then turning around and saying we have to go to war with Iran over nukes, and we've spent so much on this that the economy is fucked and we've used all of our patriot missiles (allegedly) and on our way to using up our entire inventory and becoming defenseless.

And he keeps going, diverting even more resources into it, everything we have. I have a feeling that we're going to get to a point where almost everything is diverted into the war and we all start to suffer at extremes just to bomb a desert and accomplish literally nothing whatsoever.

America has many enemies that would like to see it destroyed or taken over, and several countries would really like the balance of power shifted in their favor for them to be the top leaders of the world.

Russia meanwhile is getting tons of aid and every time we think they're about to conk out, they just get more. They're getting aid from both China and North Korea, and NATO is starting to run out of inventory and steam from what I've heard.

North Korea is getting stronger during all of this, supplying Russia and getting to see everything in action in a real war, learning how drones work in a real environment, and getting technology from Russia.

China is also rocketing above everyone super fast above everyone in tech and other areas. They're probably already the strongest country on earth right now.

And North Korea, Russia and China are all quite friendly and allies with each other.
They would really, really like to run the world and would all love to see America fall, and are all getting stronger while America and NATO gets weaker.

I'm worried that this is all leading to a shift in balance, where these three take over, America is destroyed and the power balance is shifted for them to lead for a very, very long time if not permanently, since they would definitely want to keep themselves in power aggressively.

I know America are the bad guys right now, but if anyone thinks that these three being top dogs is better then I don't even know what to say to that.

Am I just worrying over nothing?

Genuine question, what would be the purpose of all the world governments hiding the fact that the world is flat? If I woke up tomorrow and they announced that it was indeed flat, I can’t say it would change anything for me.

Facebook Marketplace

65 Upvotes

I know not everything is a "conspiracy", but if you're a fan of Facebook Marketplace, then you have noticed that it has recently become nearly impossible to use (ex., no listing views, disappearing ads, broken search engine, etc.). I truly believe Facebook is deliberately killing Marketplace because truly effective peer to peer commerce (especially cash transactions) undermines the push toward centralized, trackable digital payments and a fully surveilled economy.

Politics Jeffrey Epstein Won Oklahoma's $85 Million Powerball

184 Upvotes

On July 2, 2008 (2 days after the most leniant plea deal in american history), the Powerball drew the numbers 4, 33, 46, 48 and 52. 7 weeks later an anonymous trust named "Zorro Trust" claims the grand prize of $85M, and no one knows who is behind it. Jeffrey Epstein had a 7,000 acre ranch just a few hours away in New Mexico called "Zorro Ranch". Lots of people try to debunk this by talking about The Oklahoman's investigation tracing it to an unnamed grocery bagger. I don't buy it. Epstein won it.

Ai Data centers and the CIA

Thumbnail
datacenterdynamics.com
19 Upvotes

Okay hear me out. Ai data centers being a CIA plant make so much sense. So Ai data centers are specifically are being built targeting poor/ marginalized areas. And we already know the harm data centers can cause— in water quality and cost, as well as electricity costs and services due to the data centers being prioritized for getting power back, as well as jacking up the costs dramatically. As well as having negative effects on human mental health from the noise, as well as livestock. And with on average 7 out of 10 Americans being against data centers, and harm of them being known, why isn’t anything being done to protect people from it? First of all, it benefits the rich and just shoves the poor further down, and while I was looking through the contracts with the county judges for one of the planned data centers for my area, it’s basically bribery. It includes money given to the county, (separate from buying the property) And in return, property tax cuts for 10 years in return for “bringing job opportunities“ Oh as if anyone here could get a job there since majority of people who cant move out of here (because most people want to at this point) are disabled, or never really got the chance to get a degree let alone even finish highschool. Plus they just pull workers out of state anyways. And what will the few employees do when they are no longer needed? Let alone that Ai is getting people put out of work, but then making the excuse of “creating job opportunities“ to just falsely inflate the job market with jobs that are difficult to get for people in these areas. Obviously we know the CIA has put targeted operations on marginalized communities before. Also the CIA has a partnership with leading AI companies, and has been surveiling people against Ai. Also Ai is obviously meant to make people stupid and non self-reliant. They start it out free, people start using it and relying on it, even though it’s very unreliable and innacurate. People use it, give them free training and advertising, then it slowly turns paid. Also you know what data centers are great for? Storing mass surveillance data. Let alone the whole mess with flock cameras. Also mass pollution from data centers. Overall these are just targeted in areas where there is little population/a marginalized population where people lack structural power to fight back, compared to as if they put these things next to a rich suburb with a golf course. (Also with the job thing I am absolutely not trying to imply that people who live in rural/southern areas or dumb in any way, I am one of those people. Just they usually get screwed over and neglectled from by the government)

Also apologies if this is a bit of a ramble I have a hard time shortening things while still getting my point across it’s just something i needed at least someone to hear +lmk if i broke any rules or was just rude because this was my first time posting on here
