This is why I love conspiracy theories. It’s the mixture of real life and fiction. If this doesn’t seem like something out of PK Dick or Huxley, nothing does. Introducing FunVax:
FunVax is a Government created viral vaccine that “cures” religious fundamentalism.
The virus was developed in early 2004 and is now being used. [...]

Good compilation of right wing lunatics on the Rachel Maddow show. I hadn’t seen the Oprah guy before – heard about it, didn’t click on it, because it’s nauseating monitoring all this stuff. But this is pretty startling: “Look out for people who try to take care of the poor…they’re the Antichrist” (paraphrasing). [...]

This is pretty interesting (via Disinfo).  I don’t think the 9-11 truth supporters are exactly effective because it just becomes a town hall yelling match, but it bears repeating: conspiracies happen.  For one, Watergate.  The official story of 9-11 is also a conspiracy – you can say, it’s different because it’s not the work of [...]

Great comic over at Above Top Secret. Actually pokes fun at conspiracy theorists – and one thing conspiracy theorists aren’t know for is having a sense of humor. I wonder if Alex Jones has ever laughed.

Interesting movie about investigating 9-11. Always interested to see how people work conspiracy theories into a work of fiction. Not totally effective because it’s basically a conversation between two people about the attacks. But it’s effective because it’s about a skeptical reporter looking for info, rather than the non-skeptical point of view [...]

Watched this. Sort of another “Zeitgeist,” except it’s fairly right wing (as opposed to Libertarian) and full of contradictions. The elite are pagans out to create a world that worships the earth so the answer is…paganism. A strange mixture of New Age spirituality and right wing rhetoric. Has this alarmingly stupid [...]

Today’s peaceful news of the day: Experiments in Torture: Evidence of Human Subject Research and Experimentation in the ‘Enhanced’ Interrogation Program:
In one gruesome set of experiments, at least 25 detainees were submitted to both individual and combined use of the different “enhanced interrogation” techniques developed by the CIA through reverse-engineering of [...]

Listen to my podcast interview on Alterati with Joseph Matheny, where I talk about conspiracies and reveal something about myself that I’ve never actually revealed in public.  I’ll be getting into that in Part Two of The American Book of the Dead, which I’ve started writing and will likely post here in pieces.  You’ll have [...]

I’ve thought Chemtrails were the bottom of the barrel of conspiracy theorizing.  The concept of spraying mind-control chemicals from airplanes isn’t all that convincing – mind control paranoia rarely is.  But spraying aluminum into the atmosphere to help combat global warming is more interesting:

Good debunking stuff here.

I’ve written before about how certain types of conspiracy theory have been taken over solely by the right.  I’ve been on the lookout for a forum to discuss some of these issues but find they’re now taken over by the hard right.  Case in point, a place like Godlike Productions, which last I checked (during [...]
