Hello good people,
What made you a conspiracy theorist? Or, as some say a conspiracy realist?
For me it was actually reading one of the books written by Michael Moore about the oil industry. Now, I have definitely changed my views on that but from there it was when I discovered the documentaries Loose Change (concerning 9/11) and Zeitgeist (I know there is a lot of criticism towards this one but it lead me towards other conspiracies).
After watching Loose Change it changed my view on the world in general and I dived deep into conspiracy land watching documentaries of Alex Jones (The Obama Deception, Endgame, Dark secrets inside the Bohemian Grove) and David Icke, also reading some of his books. Later I watched some of James Corbetts documentaries (Century of Enslavement: The History of the Federal Reserve, 9/11 Trillions: Follow the Money, How/Why Big Oil Conquered The World) and it blew my mind. I still follow Corbetts stuff to this day and I highly recommend his stuff.
I'd say that there was a sort of evolution for me, at some point thinking that lizard people control our world, to now thinking that there are powerful people we never hear of who pull the strings.
Well, I invite you guys to join this thread and tell us about how you came to be a conspiracy realist!
