Spanish american war, the gulf of tonkin, and the WMDs in IRAQ were all false flags to create casus belli

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantom_time_hypothesis

> The phantom time hypothesis is a historical conspiracy theory asserted by Heribert Illig. First published in 1991, the hypothesis proposes a conspiracy by the Holy Roman Emperor Otto III, Pope Sylvester II, and possibly the Byzantine Emperor Constantine VII, to fabricate the Anno Domini dating system retrospectively, so that it placed them at the special year of AD 1000, and to rewrite history to legitimize Otto's claim to the Holy Roman Empire. Illig believed that this was achieved through the alteration, misrepresentation and forgery of documentary and physical evidence. According to this scenario, the entire Carolingian period, including the figure of Charlemagne, is a fabrication, with a "phantom time" of 297 years (AD 614–911) added to the Early Middle Ages.

> The proposal has found no favour among mainstream medievalists.

Human civilization is A LOT older then we thought

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Göbekli_Tepe

>The surviving structures, then, not only predate pottery, metallurgy, and the invention of writing or the wheel, but were built before the so-called Neolithic Revolution, i.e., the beginning of agriculture and animal husbandry around 9000 BCE. But the construction of Göbekli Tepe implies organization of an advanced order not hitherto associated with Paleolithic, PPNA, or PPNB societies. Archaeologists estimate that up to 500 persons were required to extract the heavy pillars from local quarries and move them 100–500 meters (330–1,640 ft) to the site.[31] The pillars weigh 10–20 metric tons (10–20 long tons; 11–22 short tons), with one still in the quarry weighing 50 tons.[32]

>the entire Carolingian period, including the figure of Charlemagne, is a fabrication

Oh shit, even if this isn't true its pretty unfathomable to think that something like this didn't happen at least once

NASA was originally just a cover for developing ICBMs that later evolved into a dick waving contest over space.

I mean, it did and we have many examples. Even disregarding ancient ones like the probably-fictional parts of Japanese and Chinese history or Homeric stuff that was percieved as history for a long fucking time, you had stories like King Arthur who was considered at least semi-factual for a long, long time.

The problem is when you start to get into mythology it all becomes blurry anyway. But im willing to believe there are parts of what we consider concrete solid history that are fabrications.

Columbus was a portuguese agent named Salvador Zarco

The ruins of an advance amazonian civilization have yet to be uncovered

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_City_of_Z

The Lost City of Z is the name given by Col. Percy Harrison Fawcett, a British surveyor, to an indigenous city that he believed had existed in the jungle of the Mato Grosso state of Brazil. Based on early histories of South America and his own explorations of the Amazon River region, Fawcett theorized that a complex civilization once existed there, and that isolated ruins may have survived.[1]

Those are well documented false flags desu

(((History))) was a jewish plot to destroy the white man.

gee i wonder why

Caesar was never assasinated, but rather took up a second life as a pot smoking hippie and eventually became Jesus of Nazeratth.

Socrates never died but snuch out the back door and ruled as the first Philosophical God King of all of Greece.

>render unto caeser what is caeser's
>mfw he was convincing jews to pay himself taxes thus jewing the jew

Well, Caesar was 55 when he died in 44 BC. Assuming Jesus was crucified in 33 AD, he would have been 133 years old at his time of death. The oldest woman ever lived to 122 years, and he would have lived 11 years longer than that. I give this a 0 chance of happening.

The Moscow apartment bombings was almost definitely a false flag by the FSB to go into Chechnya.

There was once a technological society, more advanced than our current one, but it was wiped out by the Finno-Korean Hyperwar

The issue is that we're at the point where there's so much evidence of everything that pretty much nothing post-Rome could be fabricated without us knowing by now. Like with King Arthur, and to a slightly lesser extent Pope Joan.

Tuskeege experiments
pretty sure some people in the reich itself thought the holohoax was a conspiracy when it was happening

Caesars bastard son then.

damn

>he doesn't know about the age of the glacial empires

-All JFK assassination theories are themselves a CIA conspiracy to make it look like it isn't that easy to kill a president.

-Major metropolitan areas are purposefully designed to produce traffic congestion to benefit oil companies.

-Cell phones are 1984 style telescreens, but instead of benefitting a totalitarian government, they benefit advertising and data mining companies.

>Major metropolitan areas are purposefully designed to produce traffic congestion to benefit oil companies.
This is true, also the passanger rail network in the US was dismantled by the government at the behest of the auto manufacturers and oil companies

I like it.
Caesar escapes Rome and goes to Judea.
BC 14, Caesar impregnates Mary at age 85.
He is brought up as a bastard that is missing one parent. But little does he know, he has gained powers from that parent that he didn't know he had. He thought he was just some bastard, but he was actually the true heir to the powerful realm

Fuck off with your fucking shitpost idiots.

>-All JFK assassination theories are themselves a CIA conspiracy to make it look like it isn't that easy to kill a president.
Bill Cooper, a naval intelligence officer, swears by the fact it was the driver/guy in the front seat, and I believe him, turned around and pop! Bill was later killed himself shortly after 911 in a targetted individual police incident.

Youtube videos best delineation for it.

Another theory is it was a hollywood staged murder, and he didn't really die, but instead went underground to rule as another philosophical god king, and the rest just further cover ups, lies behind lies.

Murdered or whatever over Executive Order 11110, which would have BTFO'd the banking cartel.

JFK did 9/11

Emperor Spurde Sparde II Spurdo was best known for his mastery of glacial warfare so not sure wtf you are on about

>hwan posters

Do these conspiracies have to be successful ones? I always thought the Weather Underground were a hilariously bad attempt at one.

>be rich white/jewish kid
>want to LARP as revolutionaries and fight for the poor and minorities, say you'll kill if necessary
>end up disowning them publicly once shit actually starts to get real

Who were the people behind the Gobekli Tepe? What happened to them?

The major issue with that theory (and many others) is that the shot obviously comes from behind Kennedy. Seriously, setting aside all of the "back and to the left" bullshit, when you actually watch the Zapruder film, Kennedy's head goes forward first, and you can see brain matter coming mostly through the front of his head.

The UFO craze, and its association with aliens, was intentionally hyped up by the US Air Force to distract from its experimental aircraft programs during the Cold War. They've admitted to this, and it's a pretty interesting story, but UFO people didn't pay attention. Similarly, the CIA popularized stories about the Yeti and Noah's Ark (the "Ararat anomaly") in order to cover up spying activities on the Nepal/China and Turkey/Russia borders. These have never been explicitly confirmed, but it's obvious enough if you look at the people attached to the expeditions for those things.

Basically, the government likes using /x/-tier stuff as covers for spying and other secret shit.

This is something that a lot of people who don't understand archaeology very well really seem to get wrong. Nothing about Gobekli Tepe necessitates that a complex civilization existed at the time; in fact, it seems like exactly the opposite was true, and that it was probably one of the first permanent architectural structures built (a lot of things at the site point to this). That's extremely cool in and of itself, but most people seem to be missing exactly what it means, which is that people seem to have been willing to get together to build structures for religious purposes before agriculture necessitated structures for storage and "civilization." That's super cool, and a pretty big paradigm shift by itself, but people like Graham Hancock have really taken their conclusions too far by completely misrepresenting what the site actually is. It's not evidence of an advanced civilization, and nothing at the site really indicates that it is.

I wonder why

That is the bullet leaving his brain and taking material with it.
