I’m not a conspiracy theory guy but I seen the post on 9/11 on no stupid questions and it seemed more fleshed out than I expected.

So what are conspiracy theories that turned out to be true?

And what are the most believable conspiracy theories out there?

    JFK’s assassination was planned with Johnson’s involvement because of Kennedy’s plans to withdraw from Vietnam. Johnson’s wife, Lady Bird, was a main stockholder of Bell helicopter and made millions off of defense contracts from the war.

      At this point, it’d almost be more interesting to learn about the handful of Americans who weren’t conspiring to kill JFK.

      I read one about the shot that killed him being accidentally fired by a secret service agent while reacting to the first shot.

      I think this is also the moment that began the rise of cynicism and bipartisanship in the country that eventually gave is Reagan.

      If what you say is true, then it should be considered a high crime against the United States.

      But of course, we will never know the actual truth on this.
