ok so you guys say that the whole thing is a conspiracy(RE) and that all the goverments of the world are really organized but pretend not to be.
so do you really think our leaders are corrupted enough to send thousands of US troops into Iraq and have them die in a fake war just to hide that the world if flat? that doesn't make since to me. ok so say u explain that war. wth happened in WW2? was it all just fake and the goverments pretended to be pissed at each other and we decided to nuke japan and kill hundreds of thousands just to make it seem like the war was real?
wow
red.

Any other straw men you'd like to knock down?

That seems to be their logic...but none of their logic makes sense. Don't bother questioning it, they will just come up with some completely irrelevant answer to the question, or just make up some more b/s to add to their beloved FAQ, which they love to talk about 24/7.

Obviously Japan and Iraq weren't "in" on the Conspiracy.

thats what i was afraid of.
them just making up something to try and defend what they think is real.
-
Why would Iraq be in on the conspiracy? They don't have a space program.
-
Even if every head of state was in on the conspiracy (and I don't think any of them really are), why wouldn't they find things to fight about?

because the country getting dominated could release the proof about the conspiracy.
-
And kill of their own cash cow?
-
It's not a coincidence that no two countries with space programs have ever gone to war.
-
have u ever heard of a civil war? if they were fighting over space programs you are trying to tell me that in the years of the united states civil war there was fucking space shuttles and people were walking on the moon?
i would have to say that is not even plausible
edit: im watching 300 right now and in the back ground there is big rock hills...i think global warming is melting all the ice walls!!!
O Noes!!
o shit there having sex now in 300, shes getting pounded

???
-

Agreed. That is not plausible, it is fucking ridiculous.
The conspiracy was born when the US was forced to fake space program results in order to asser military dominance in the space race.
What the hell does the US civil war have to do with this??
-
wth happened in WW2? was it all just fake and the goverments pretended to be pissed at each other
Yes.
and we decided to nuke japan and kill hundreds of thousands just to make it seem like the war was real?
wow
red.
Except they faked that... too.

To quote from that thread:
(this is a parody - see Commentary below for details)
As divito said, it is the best line.
Just because one conspiracy is ridiculous (fake war), it doesn't make the NASA conspiracy false. WWII clearly happed. The Earth is clearly flat, so the NASA conspiracy also clearly happened.
-
WWII clearly happed.
Nope.
That website is just a parody. It is probably made by Hollywood just to make you believe that such war did happen. However, I'm here to tell you this is not the case. You should thank me.

When I saw the title for this thread, I immediately thought of the song, and can't believe somebody hasn't quoted it yet.

Huh! What is it good for? Absolutely nothing!

Say it again y'all!!!

ok what im saying is that there is no way they are fighting over space programs when there wasnt even space programs in the 1800's.
you said that it's a coincidence that there has never been 2 countries with out space programs that got into war. Well there have been.
unless you believe the civil war was fake too. In that case i just give up because thats just dumb.

oh sorry i read his post wrong.
although 2 countries with space programs have gone to war.
anyone here remember Russia being part of the Korean War? America was against North Vietnam in the Korean War, and North Vietnam was in fact backed by the Soviet Union and China.
at that time the soviet union had already put sputnik into orbit.
so, there it is, two countries that went to war against each other that had/developing space programs.
this is all dandy unless you guys believe that sputnik is a conspiracy too
-
Please cite a reliable source that shows the space agencies in any government hold sway over international affairs.
-
Maybe you should ask Tom Bishop about that one.
He was the one that brought up space programs, i was just the one saying there is no way thats what they were fighting over.
-
so, there it is, two countries that went to war against each other that had/developing space programs.
The Soviet Union and America were never in direct conflict. They were never at war.
The Soviet Union backed North Vietnam in many socioeconomic ways, but the two were not allies in the way the US is an ally with Europe.
When Vietnam was attacked by America the Soviets didn't roll in with tanks and missiles to help them defend their borders.
-
Ignoring Tom's trolling (sorry, old bean) the conspiracy doesn't rely on governments being organized (that part of the FAQ is superseded just about everywhere) only the space agencies are a direct part of the conspiracy
-
ok well im starting to see what you guys are saying about all this, and if i begin to think like you it makes since.
and tom yes i know they were never in direct conflict, hence the title "Cold War." I just thought that since they were backing people up (ussr backing vietnam) that it would be the same, evidently its not. thanks for clearing that up.
well i see what you guys are all saying about this but im afraid i will be sticking with RE for now.
nice talking to all of you.
:)

Uh... North Vietnam was not part of the Korean War...

Incorrect. The hostilities of the Korean War lasted from June 25, 1950 to July 27, 1953 (after a ceasefire agreement). The USSR launched its first Sputnik satellite on October 4, 1957.
I think you are talking about the Vietnam War.
so, there it is, two countries that went to war against each other that had/developing space programs.
The two countries never went to war against each other.

The cold war was fun, we should have another one

I always place the birth of the GlobCon in the 1800's - the money-hungry collaboration of Alfred Wallace, George Airy and John Walsh represents the first convergence of three major component parts of the Con - Academia, Government and the Media, behind the single-minded purpose of earning money by lying about the shape of the Earth.
Placing the Conspiracy's early life here is also chronologically compatible with other notable GlobCon events, such as the assassination of Scott of the Antarctic.
-
Oh, and as for the war debate, it's important to remember this simple adage when it comes to the Globularist Conspiracy - "not all Conspiracy is government, not all government is Conspiracy". In other words, there are large swathes of governmental employees who are unaware of the Conspiracy (the vast majority, in fact), and large swathes of Conspiracy employees who do not work for the government.
The Conspiracy has governmental cells, it does not encompass all, or even most, of government.
-
Exactly. The majority of the government has no idea, or I would expect they would cut the funding.
Incidentally, I trace the Globularist Conspiracy roots to the 1400's. It was born as the Bavarian Globe Makers Guild or BGMG. It has been speculated that the Illuminati were a later offshoot of the BGMG, but this is speculation.
