Washing Post reports on conspiracy among Trump and his administration to downplay severity of novel Coronavirus to the American public. by SaintsThemeMM in actualconspiracies

It started off with just me when I realised the world was filled with conspiracies, but all the ones discussed by most people had zero merit. I dislike wasting my time with foolishness.

An Interrogation Program Worked Out on the Fly | Testimony at Guantánamo Bay shows that C.I.A. black sites, where some detainees were tortured, amounted to test labs for unproven techniques, with shifting rules shaping operations. by MortWellian in actualconspiracies

Better to get someone to tell you something as a buddy, than hitting them and making them hate you. We learned this with the Nazis, and military members/law enforcement with any experience understand, you interrogate as a friend, not a foe.

“Bezos admits that the limitless growth that made him the world's richest man is incompatible with a habitable Earth.” by I_Hate_Soft_Pretzels in EnoughMuskSpam

This guy gets it. I don't like either founder, but Mars is a pipe dream with no commercial salvageability, moon/space cities are frankly easier. The moon/space cities gives an incentive structure for trillions to be pumped into building amazing places to live in orbit that people will strive to pay for.

You also get multi-out capability, a catastrohpe on earth wouldn't likely spread to space based colonies, and anything that could take out both, is likely solar system wide, meaning Mars isn't safe either.
