Conspiracy Theories - The new Utterly Ridiculous Thread or is it?

Then after today they will have some more ammo as another eleven have been killed by shooting, I'm sorry to hear.

This is banal enough without having to come out with the type of bull**** people like Alan Jones rant on about.

Like these NRA nut job supporters who deny the massacre of school children at Sandy Hook. These individuals are so ****ing mental they face the families of the victims and accuse them of being paid actors in part of a false flag operation to push the anti-gun agenda.

Where is the evidence that the Internet has killed critical thinking?

I can't imagine how much more difficult and constrained my research at uni would have been without instant access to hundreds if not thousands of journals online.

Maybe there is an under-appreciation of the potentially advanced information processing skills of the current generation as they adapt to their digital environment and the dramatic increase of information available to them?

I wonder if there was a similar generational shift following the proliferation of the printing press?

Fluoride is slowly killing us all.

Elvis is alive and living in Dubbo.

Harold Holt was kidnapped by the Chinese.

Actually, I think I may have once met Elvis in Dubbo. He certainly had the right sideburns.

If he was carrying a gold Guitar then it could have been Tamworth, Mick.[smilebigeye]

No, it was definitely Dubbo. [emoji16]

Mind you, it is also said he wanders around Tamworth each year just to see if anyone picks him from the impersonators.

It is also said he has an exclusive contract with Uber Eats International for the daily delivery of four burgers with fries to him anywhere in the world. Uber is said to have supplied him with a special GPS so they can always deliver to him.
