When Al-Qaeda themselves claimed responsibility, even with overwhelming evidence aside? Why were so many people still reluctant, I was researching about this stuff and was shocked to see people who I respect a lot believe in this

I'm not saying it is a conspiracy, I was just explaining why people think it is.

But let's assume they did place the explosives, they wouldn't have to be in the place of impact, they would be located in many places, just like a controlled demolition.

Again, not saying that's what happened, just saying that the US is constantly doing sneaky stuff under the covers, which is why most conspiracies don't seem far fetched.

Do you really think it is insane to believe the US made up the moon landing as a propaganda campaign against Russia? I believe we went to the moon, but if they came up with official documents saying we didn't, I would be like "welp, US doing US things I guess"

Which moon landing? All of them? There was more than one. And yes I think it is very nearly insane given how much evidence we have.

If you want to take this to a philosophical extreme so you understand my argument, is it possible to ever know anything with certainty?

What do you call evidence? Photos, videos, testimony... Do I personally trust in that evidence? Yes, it would be very unlikely to be fake, but many unlikely conspiracies have surfaced in the past.

No. Not doing it. Do you have evidence or not? Go find someone else who wants a bong hit and agrees with your "you can't really know anything man" shitck.

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.
