(Yes, of course I know that’s not the Enterprise-D and that TNG came out in 1986, but you try making a better debunking joke.)

    Fake moon landing, aliens built the pyramids why do some conspiracy theories insist on robbing humans of their monumental achievements. My guess is that people who create and share conspiracies like those are too dumb to realize that other people have different knowledge than they do.

      It’s probably because most of the people that believe these things are impossible can’t even chew with their mouths closed.

      I do like how the moon landing deniers forget about the phrase “it’s not rocket science” when pretending to know what they’re talking about.

        Would you like me to edit my comment to say “why do some conspiracy theories…”?

          Ill add one off the top of my head, the assasination of julius caeser.

          Oh and that Arch Duke Ferdinand fellow. That caused a few wars.

          Conspiracies happen all the time.

          Stop being a shill for the governmental disinformation efforts.

            Just curious, was the anti-governmental assassination of the archduke the governmental disinformation effort or was the very open explanation for it and the Black Hand’s admission of their involvement the governmental disinformation effort?
