    Are the people who post all over the internet that 9/11 was fake, Sandy Hook was fake, the Boston Bombing was fake, etc - actually paid shills of the govt, trying to make anyone who questions the govt who look stupid or insane? This is an interesting theory.

    Which government?

    I think they're taking bribes from al Qaeda and Boko Haram.

    It is possible. I mean, if you think about the options available before you for choosing, spreading disinformation and misinformation via government entity or outsourced contract is as likely as people just believing in the unbelievable and them spreading their worldview in whatever fashion they can. History has shown that governments do indeed lie, even lie about their lies, as well as people of all walks believing in things that defy a whole variety of things that show their beliefs are unsound, like the billions that go on "faith" and not evidence (yes, I'm talking about God(s) here).

    Neither interesting, original, or even logical.

    Since your thread isn't getting ANY hits, I'll help you out.

    When video and forensic evidence of these events being hoaxes begin piling up, they become conspiracy fact, and are no longer a theory.

    Because of the fact that your perspective on the world may be considered by many to be "limited", you suffer a great disadvantage in the arena of conspiracy discussion.

    I think that if actually took the time to educate yourself, broaden your horizons, and pull your head out of the sand, you would find yourself enjoying your PF time much more.

    You would be able to participate in much more interesting conversation than those in which you currently wallow and intellectually stagnate.

    As of now, you're simply choosing to trap yourself inside a tiny box your God-State built for you.
