Favorite Conspiracy Theory?

I love Tania Harding killed JFK. And "I found Bin Laden in New York via his myspace page"

Keith Richards and Charlie Watts are actually long dead, and what we see on stage are animatronics.

Look, you asked for conspiracy theories; you didn't limit yourself to fictional ones. :D

Actually, Keith Richards has been dead for about 15 years now. It's just that nobody's told him yet. :D
 
Hi and hallo everyone!

The Apollo Hoax, though mostly because of the fun of learning about Apollo and space in learning how to combat the hoax claims.

That's my favorite as well. It's hilarious, self-debunking and always comes with beautiful pictures of earth, moon or both. I also like that most of the people who actually believe such nonsense are just your average lunatics, not some kind of racist moron like e.g. the Holocaust-Deniers.
 
I like the one that says I'm a paid Government shill, personally.
 
Chemtrails, hands down. Especially when someone posts "They've been spraying REALLY heavily these past few weeks and I've had a terrible cold". Always cracks me up.

Moon landing theorys are funny. some claim they never was on the moon, others claim they have bases on the moon since 40 years and they do mining on the moon ^^

A fan favorite over on Bad Astronomy was good old "Cosmic Dave", who simultaneously held that we had never been to the Moon... and that we had been there but were covering up the existence of an advanced alien civilization!

Anyway, here's my pet conspiracy theory: When significant manned space exploration activities are undertaken by the U.S., aliens or other unnamed "they" get the U.S. involved in a protracted, unpopular, and expensive war to suck up resources and generally demoralize the public and subvert their support of government initiatives. Think Apollo and Vietnam, Constellation and Iraq.

A version of this was mentioned in Joe Haldeman's SF story Forever Free.
 
NWO theory. I remember that I freaked out when I looked at the CT's "facts". Probably it was because my critical thinking gland wasn't well developed until now. Now, the theory always cracks me up every time I hear about it.

You seem to have inadvertently included a theory that is supported by an overwhelming quantity of evidence. I mean, have you ever listened to The White Album?

The "Paul Mc Cartney is dead" CT is pretty fun, although Sir Paul probably wish he was dead after his divorce...

The real question is not if Paul is Dead, but were the Beatles involved with the hoax?
It is certainly the kind of joke that John Lennon would have enjoyed.
And I still love Paul's comment at the time:
"If I were really dead, I would probably be the last person to know".
And I think that Paul probably thinks 50 Million was cheap to get that Gold Digger out of his life....
