All great additional thoughts, u/SvixGale 👈🏻

Why Thank You, kind sir! 👌😎

There was a joke running around during the plandemic that turned out to be quite prescient. Q: What's the difference between a Conspiracy Theory and a Fact? A: About 6 months. It seems the Delta is much shorter now. Time speeds up as the truth intervenes.

Yep, I definitely remember those memes.....very true!! And yes; has definitely been speeding up substantially......

Due to so many "conspiracy theories" turning out to be true, it has certainly made me wonder and want to examine so much of history that I once thought I knew for certain.

Oh absolutely......honestly; it almost turns my stomach when I start to ponder the "common knowledge" we've been taught about literally EVERYTHING in history.... truly.......and let's not even talk about the hatred I have for those who have lied to us so badly......

Was Pearl Harbor really caught completely off guard? Who was desperate to get the USA into WWII? Who wanted to stay out of war at all costs? I think Churchill and Roosevelt wanted to get in, and I think the American people were hell-bent against it, with the recent memories of WWI still in their contemporary experience.

Dammit; I just read / heard something that stated quite clearly that roosevelt not only knew the japanese were planning to attack us, but even facilitated / invited it by relocating so many ships to Pearl Harbor. I'll try to find it.

I at least found this, which is QUITE fascinating: https://www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/fdr-bluff-relocating-us-fleet-to-pearl-harbor

Apparently the decision to relocated practically the entire US Naval Fleet was a "bluff" on FDR's part, and it was very strongly opposed by many naval officers.

Not enough to state intentions, but gives one pause......

Was Watergate really as history explains it? Or was the IC involved via infiltration in the affair and reporting? Are Woodward & Bernstein actually spooks?

And remember; Nixon was a Republican president; the dems have been fighting dirty since forever.....I literally wouldn't put ANYTHING past them, even back then.

What about the moon landing? We went over 50 years ago but can't seem to figure out how to get back? All of the original plans and equipment were destroyed? Really?

Oh shit....please don't..... You're gonna make my fingers fall off from all the typing..... LMAO.....

Basically; I think what they mean when they say "lost the technology" to do so & similar is; It's like with any piece of military equipment, specifically aircraft (but applies to anything); There are SO many great examples here;

The SR-71 Blackbird; Once it was officially cancelled / retired, they also destroyed (or told us they did) virtually anything & everything required to make it; I'm sure you know they had to invent new specialized tools to work with titanium; all those were destroyed, along with the dies / tools used to make those tools; presumably all blueprints / technical diagrams were destroyed (or buried extra deep), etc.

And by now, I'm sure a significant number of the men who invented & built it are long since passed.

So; COULD we restart SR-71 production? Sure. Would it be extremely, extremely costly and lengthy? Fuck yes.

Because we'd essentially have to "re-build" it, and all the tools / systems / processes to make it, all from scratch.

I HOPE it wouldn't be quite so extreme with something like the space shuttle; I would hope all the physical / written knowledge, blueprints, diagrams; all that shit, I really HOPE would have been preserved under lock & key; not destroyed like the SR-71. Sure both are sensitive / classified, but the SR-71 far more so than the shuttle.

I think that's what they mean when they say we "lost the technology to go back to the moon" or anything like that.

Either way; it's definitely weird....like; why would we NOT want to go back to the moon; build a base there, fully colonize it, etc?

Random, but have you ever heard some of the theories surrounding the moon? They are absolutely wild, and apparently quite valid. I'm badly paraphrasing from memory, but basically; we know very little about the moon's origins, what we DO know doesn't comport with existing science on other moons / planets, and there's so much science cannot explain, such as how it has & can "ring like a bell" - as if it were totally hollow.

It's truly wild, and the fact that scientists admit they're stumped makes it even more compelling. :-)

Honestly, we could probably look at nearly every major world event in history, especially modern history, and consider questioning it all. I am not disposed to throw everything out and assume it is all wrong, but we are all too well aware of how much the media lies.

Absolutely....like the holocaust.......

Want to know the truth in the news? Start by believing the opposite. You'll be 95% of the way there.

Ha, yep, exactly. I literally do that on most "mainstream" things I hear. Ha!
