Was reminded how Epstien not killing himself was/is so accepted yet it’s still a conspiracy theory. Is there any similar ones you guys believe to be completely true ?

Feds could have stopped 9/11, but chose not to.

As far as I understand they could have stopped it but it would have required them swallowing their pride and sharing their data and cooperating with "rival" agencies.

Lmfao seems reasonable, hopefully he'll be held accountable

The Looming Tower is a fantastic mini series which covers the inter agency bullshit that allowed it to happen

[–] Chuymatt@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Yah, not really conspiracy, but BS that allowed bad things.

[–] Nonameuser678@aussie.zone 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The real truth of 9/11 is far darker than the idea that it was an inside job. It being an inside job implies that the Bush administration was competent.

[–] bizzle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I mean, Bush and Saudi families have been friends for generations. Doesn't seem too far fetched for them to work together.

[–] Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

They had all the information on 911 but all in different agencies and different people who didn't connect the dots.

[–] sadreality@kbin.social -5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

After blm and j6, I am assuming feds did it.

No big ticket item crime in US gets done with out them playing at least some role.

[–] Blamemeta@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Hell they don't even need to do much. A few internet comments, and bada bing bada boom, you got a headline.
