I have one crazy conspiracy theory that I 100% believe in, and it's it's that:
Russia created and spread most of those "flat earth" "lizard people" "harmful vaccines" "fluorite water" "5G" conspiracies (And hundreds of other "trust no one, everything's fake"-type conspiracies) through the sheer amount of bots that they have, on Facebook and other social media. I genuinely believe it's the Russian propaganda machine that started and fueled those "Flat Earth"- type conspiracies, either as an experiment to see how susceptible people are to propaganda, or as a means of making people not trust scientist or anyone around them and start arguing that "Maybe 2+2 isn't 4? Maybe we should question things like that?".
I genuinely,
in my heart of hearts,
believe,
that the "Flat Earth" theory started with two russian trolls betting on a bottle of vodka and a 500 rubles after one of them said:
"I could convince those bitches that the earth is flat if I wanted to!"
And the other said:
"Nah, Vasia. You're drunk. They may be stupid but not that stupid"
And the first said:
"You don't believe me? *hiccups* I'll show ya! I bet my whole next month's salary to you!"
That is my conspiracy theory. That it's Russia who mostly creates crazy conspiracy theories about world control, mind control and distrust... in order to control people, influence their minds and make them distrust everything.
