Once you delve into the dirty world of conspiracy theories, it’s easy to start believing that everything you’ve ever been told is a complete crock. From 9/11 to the Vatican, there’s someone out there claiming it proves we’re living in one big Truman Show, and guess what…..? George Dubya is almost definitely behind it all.

Remember Y2K? Well that was nothing compared Phantom Time Hypothesis, suggested by German historian Herbert Illig. He claimed that many years ago monks rewrote the calendar to avoid dealing with the fallout from the impending Y1K bug/apocalypse. According to Illig, an extra 300 years was added to our history, making the Middle Ages a complete fabrication and relegating Charlemagne, Alfred the Great and St. Boniface to the fiction shelf in the bookshop.

But it gets way more bizarre than that. Here are some more gems from Paranoid Corner for you to ponder as you set off for work at your Government sponsored job. They range from the clearly absurd to the possibly true, so we’re not trying to convince you either way.

But, having just spent the last few hours viewing You Tube’s endless conspiracy clips from history, our advise to you all is simple….. DON’T TRUST ANYONE!

 

1. DAVID ICKE
He started his career as goalkeeper for Coventry City, so all the signs were there. But then he decided he was the son of Godhead, declared the Royal Family were shape-shifting lizards and started 'propheteering' to an audience who greeted his claims with a hearty guffaw and the occasional chortle. clip

2. 9/11
What happened to building 7? Where was the airforce? How come so many people took the day off? The conspiracy society will be debating this one forever, especially now its possible to study the You Tube clips from the comfort of their mum's loungerooms. clip
3. THE HOLOCAUST
Idiots such as British 'historian' David Irving believe the holocaust was either exaggerated or completely made up. If that's true, it seems that they've done a great job of convincing the ABC, who fill around half of their content with doco's about Hitler and Goering. clip
4. MOON LANDING
"It's all done with wires" the naysayers scream, before going on to declare the moon is made of cheese and Buzz Aldrin never existed. A quick photoshop of Bert Newton’s portrait and Bob’s yer uncle.  clip
5. BARCODES & NUMBERS
According to some, barcodes, numbers and symbols are the tools of secretive pressure groups, designed to shop us into binary submission. A few ones, plus a bucketload of zeroes looking scared and wearing badges. Clip
6. KURT COBAIN
Having drug and depression issues isn’t enough for the cynics, there must be more to Kurt’s death! Well maybe he’s not dead, he’s hiding. He was married to Courtney Love after all.  clip
7. BILDERBERG
If this one’s true it’s the scariest of them all. One small group dictating the course of history for hundreds of years without scrutiny. Move over Spice Girls.  clip

8. CROP CIRCLES
“Time is short and the choice is yours” states the clip. Presumably, the choice is to believe this impressive graffiti is the work of spirograph space craft, or drunken design students on mushrooms. clip

9. ROSWELL
The truth is out there alright. Plenty of people believe we’ve been visited by aliens in Australia too, although the Howard Government probably shipped them off to Nauru to apply for refugee visas.  clip

10. GOOGLE
Not just there for the pervy things in life. They know your bank details, your address, your sexual preferences and probably your inside leg measurement. Don’t start a fight with these bastards, you'll lose. clip
