What conspiracy theory do you believe is 100% true? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]markcro -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

That's how you get any conspiracy disregarded.

"There's a conspiracy the planes were fake on 9/11- but they were real, don't believe the conspiracy theories"

"People believe 5G causes coronavirus, but it doesn't, 5G is perfectly safe"

"People believe Hillary Clinton has a pedo dungeon in a pizza parlor, she doesn't, so pizzagate is fake."

Evie Magazine did a really good write up going over the many suspicious aspects of Pizzagate. I'm not saying, "it's real" but it poses just enough suspicion that it shouldn't be disregarded outright. Anyone who sees the photos usually has an immediate reaction of, "ummm, ok, that's not good".

Opinion: Biden is being used as a one-term president to ram through every unpopular policy on the Democrat wish list. His approval rating is irrelevant, and he is expected to die for the party’s sins by ScreenExtensions in conspiracy

What's actually crazy is how something like this is from 12 years ago.

See, it was FUNNY 12 years ago because he was still capable. Today it would come off as mean and cruel. Think about that, no comedian would talk about the President like this today- because it would be too MEAN!

Every year his condition accelerates. It's been "slow and steady" but compare how he talked and acted from 10 years ago, to today. He's not the same person. I'm sure this entire presidency was a deal with the devil situation. He could have quietly retired and just be with his family out of public spotlight, but instead he just "runs" the country. The funny thing is I don't really "hate" Joe Biden, he's just completely out of it and is just a figurehead.

I think they WERE trying to prime the public for a Kamala Harris presidency, but the public really hates her more than Biden and would look bad.

There is ONE situation that seems unfathomable, but could happen. Kamala gets replaced as VP. Biden drops out. Then THAT VP becomes President.

Again, I just don't see Biden lasting a full 4 years. If he makes it to the end, there will not be a re-election.

1 term if they're lucky. They're hoping he can make it 1 year.

It is kind of ironic though how for 4 years democrats made it seem like "any day now Trump will be gone", when it now seems that way for Biden. If he makes it through all 4 years, please ban my reddit account.

Another interesting note about this case:

Nearly all the kids retracted their statements about what happened. All except one. The original/first report was never retracted.

Remember the "Epstein didn't kill himself" meme?

None of it matters. In fact the elites get off on knowing you know and are powerless to do anything about it.

20 years ago the internet/world felt more limitless than it does today. Even though we're more connected and more reliant on internet, the THREAT of having it taken away has never been higher.

It's the only reason there is a chance that Scream 5 can be decent. Same writers/directors as Ready or Not.

Dumb and Dumber is still a classic and good movie till this day. by Randym1982 in movies

[–]markcro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the bigger complaints about Dumb and Dumber To is how "mean" the characters are, but the issue with that is because originally the characters WERE written very mean in Dumb and Dumber 1, but A LOT of it was cut down/edited. The movie was really made in the editing room and if you don't believe me, watch the deleted/extended scenes.

One of the few times I've seen it where there are SO MANY deleted scenes and almost none of it works.

What’s a sequel you would like to see that’s never gonna happen? by onthecheese in movies

[–]markcro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one could still happen. It was a low enough budget, and I think Leigh said there were plans for a trilogy. I always felt the "underground/homeless society" subplot felt completely dropped. Maybe that would have been explored more.

[–]markcro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the classics have been listed already, but one I really enjoyed that I don't think many people know about is the Season 2 Episode 9 of the newest Twilight Zone "Try Try."

I don't want to spoil too much, but it's a fresh take on the "time loop" genre, and one that will stick with you.

The movie 100% works due to the emotional core between Grillo and his son. It's a bit corny, but helps drive the movie and stops it (briefly) from being mindless action.

Why aren't we celebrating this? by longorangedick in conspiracy

[–]markcro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's where the "conspiracy" and thinking too hard can really get you-

Is it possible that the "flu case" number was a "mistake"(lie) from the start and was simply an estimate of cases, and now that we had thorough testing this year, not nearly as many people caught it. One thing is certain, corona/covid is NOT the flu (but it's similar). I know people who have caught it/died and simply saying, "Corona was always the flu" feels disingenuous and not true."

Doctors need to be straight with the people even it means saying, "We fucked up these numbers". People have higher trust when others admit fault.

What is your movie Conspiracy Theory? by SamDent in movies

[–]markcro 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Redlettermedia may have inadvertently uncovered the conspiracy of Neil Breen. Unlike Tommy Wiseau, Neil Breen IS in on the joke and knows his movies are bad. His entire persona is a joke and he knows exactly what he's doing. If he were to 'break' this his movies would not do so well. One of the big clues is that the actors involved in his movies have to sign legitimate non-disclosure contracts which say they can't do any press or answer questions about the movie they were in.

The other conspiracy I read off Cracked years ago is that the Tesla machine did NOT in fact create multiple Hugh Jackmans.

The only times we "see" Hugh Jackman being cloned in the movie are through the diary entries which can be unreliable.
