The titanic was traveling between England and the US.  It never went near the ice wall.

True, but hey, if photo's of the round Earth are forged, what's to say the geography of the flat Earth isn't forged as well?

It's kind of hard  to forge geography.  Forge a map, sure, but not the actual geography.

Indeed. I'll have to go on an excursion to see if the ice wall is near America and Germany.

The Tiltanic could have been redirected by the conspiracy. Or a chunk of ultra-ice from the wall floated poleward to the ship to sink it. It's perfectly reasonable.

I can't really think of anything that's near America and Germany.   The Titanic sailed from Liverpool, I believe.

Why ultra-ice?  Why not just a regular iceberg?

Because ultra-ice is the sentient version of an iceberg, capable of tracking down passenger vessels and ruthlessly attacking them.

No no, I'm assuming regular ice isn't going to be good enough for the ice wall, so the world wide conspiracy would have had people developing a new, super version of ice that can stand up to the strain better.

No way regular ice could have penetrated the unsinkable hull of the Titanic! Only government engineered ultra-ice would have that kind of strength.

So was this tragedy caused by the government?

Or did it simply not exist and the whole thing was staged?

The ice wall has been around longer than the conspiracy.

In reality, neither. The titanic tried to sail across the atlantic and ran into some ice. It sunk.

This has absolutely no relevence nor relation to the shape of the earth.

What you're asking is akin to claiming all car crashes are caused by the RE conspiracy.

Oh my god! Car crashes are caused by the conspiracy? I didn't know that.

The Titanic's sinking is almost certainly relavent to the shape of the earth, without the ice wall, why would the government have needed to develop ultra-ice?

It seems simple... there was probably someone on the ship that the conspiracy needed to have killed, and that was the most logical way to do it.

The Titanic was actually not unsinkable.  She was built before metallurgy really came about.  A new type of alloy was used for the hull.  What wasn't known at the time was the microscopic trasformations that this metal underwent at low temperatures.  In warm waters, the hull was ductile (able to absorb energy with some deformation) and in the cold water, the alloy became very brittle (the metal fractures without deforming).  When she hit the iceberg, the crack propagated through a large portion of the hull, exposing a vast amount of the interior to the sea.  She was doomed before she ever came out of dry dock...

Woah. I meant to say England, not Germany. I was talking about Germany with a friend, and got the countries mixed up.

That's right she was doomed before she left drydock! The conspiracy's trained penguins were already pushing that chunk of ultra-ice north! Of course, I can't prove any of this because there is no evidence whatsoever.

Besides, since the conspiracy controls all information, how do you know about the construction of the ship? That could just be a cover story.

Titanic got too close to the icewall and was shot down. The incident later was covered up @ conspiracy etc.

The Titanic did hit the ice wall....well, it was a wall of ice, an iceburg, not the Ice Wall, which, I might add, doesn't exist.

Do you realise how stupid that sounds? Since when could ice 'Think'? You prettty much said that the government created the ice wall.
