Conspiracy has twice as many subscribers and a better name but we should hear with the pluralists first. Maybe there was some reason for the split we all have forgotten long since.
Pluralists subscribe both to the theory of there being two of them, and also there being a plural version (thus they refer to themselves as pluralists).
We have been infiltrated by pluralists. I suspect most of you are pluralists.
I suspect this subreddit was actually created by pluralists, as a way to misdirect people, into thinking that this was an escape from them. They conspire within the "Conspiracies" subreddit, but they created "Conspiracy" to throw us off.
I don't think there should be a conspiracy (or conspiracies) subreddit when it's actually a subcategory of the politics subreddit.
Also considering the current preconception on the fraze "conspiracy theory", and the fact that anyone with an interest in politics would/should also have an interest in this topic, I suggest it be merged with the politics subreddit.
It would also present the stories submitted to it in a more serious light.
Just look at the comments here. Many are making fun of the subreddit. Posting here does not ensure that people will look at things with an open mind; it only ensures that many redditors will never see the article. I agree with manixrock.
No its imperative we keep them seperate , the CIA has infiltrated conspiracies and if we allow them to merge with conspiracy they'll catch on to our umm ... conspiracy
How come people are arguing about conspiracy and conspiracies subreddit? I mean, afterall, isn't the word has been ridiculed over and over and made the subject unattractive?
I think also that all Global Elite plans should be discussed in the politics reddit so that people be aware how the New World Order is now main stream news!
Mabye so. Why do you care. Believe what YOU want and leave everyone else alone. I hate sports but I don't go there and bother them. Why are you here wasting your time on something you don't like or believe?
The people who're attracted by this nonsense bring down the overall intelligence level of the site. Lower average poster intelligence already killed Digg so personally I'd prefer to keep the stupid out of reddit.
Not at all. He has an agenda. Big difference from a disagreement. My point is I don't like sports and I think it is used to distract people from reality. But, I don't waste my time going into the sports reddit and attacking sports articles and sports fans. If someone has a valid agruement, I'm all ears. But when someone like him brings no factual rebuttals to the discussion, it is pretty obvious he just has an agenda.
As for "factual rebuttals," the vast majority of comments in this and in every subreddit are opinions, unproven assertions and/or jokes.
How exactly do you "factually rebut" claims that, for example, martial law is "imminent"? No matter what you say, someone will say "Nuh-uh, I think it's gonna happen!" and sometimes they'll add "you're a brainless sheep" or "you're a disinfo agent!"
Your using a strawman arguement. For example, there is sodium flouride in the water. I can submit Wiki articles, videos of doctors and scientist and testimony before the house that it is harmful to humans. Now post me 'factual rebuttals' that its not. That's what I mean.
It's not a strawman argument. Plenty of the posts here are utterly free of "proof" and rely entirely on coming up with paranoid interpretations of facts that no one disputes. Like the "martial law" ones, which are perpetual on this subreddit. Or this one:
How on earth do you "rebut" this except to challenge the logic of the post?
As for those that come with "proof," I can't say anything about flouride, because I don't know or care about that particular conspiracy theory, but I and others regularly post detailed rebuttals to 9/11 theories, most of which are promptly ignored by people on this subreddit.
Your throwing the baby out with the bath water. Ok, let me get this straight. If I do not like something I can go in and post nonsense and then the whole subreddit is wrong? I got news for you, you should care about the flouride conspiracy because you and your family are being poisoned.
*edit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ys9q1cvKGk
And on the martial law subject, at least 2 or 3 Congressman, on the floor of the house said they were threatened with martial law. You can watch the videos on youtube of the c-span coverage. The army website reported that thousands of military are on tour on US soil since October '08. So if someone posts that it is going to happen tomorrow and it does not, does that mean the other events did not take place? You need to learn dissernment. And correct me if I am wrong but US troops active and on tour in the US is martial law!
Oh and 9/11 was absolutly an inside job. I could go on for hours providing evidence of this FACT. But, 8th grade science proves it. 3 buildings fell into the path of greatest resistence and fell at the speed of a billard ball in a vacuum encountering NO resistence. End of discussion.
This is another strawman arguement. Your saying that if I would post a 'kooky' irrelavant story about sports, that all the articles about sports were wrong. Again you are picking garbage to prove your point. Like the 9/11 space beams or aliens did it. Debunkers like the MSM cover these and try to discredit the whole thing. Strawmen. You are either a disinfo agent or an useful idiot. I think you are a disinfo agent. How much money are you making to sell out your own people? $20-30k a year? Hell, the government just prints it outta thin air, so, maybe $100k?

Yeah, but everything gets downmodded there as being crazy no matter how much evidence is presented.

Nah, I've met plenty of people who claimed to have a sense of humour, but weren't funny.

I vote we leave conspiracy as the general reddit, and let conspiracies be the place for lame youtube rants.

What about UFO and UFOS? Can those be merged?

What about HAPPY and UNHAPPY? Can those be merged? And we'll call it FINE.

For the good of the gene pool put both groups in a small boat and set them adrift in the Pacific ocean.

If you don't like this subreddit then don't come to this subreddit.
