No, and also, Go back to the drawing board with your stupid bullshit. The only thing that you are worldview depends on is dipshit ignorance. Oh, look at that, they claim to have measured x y and z. But what scientific experiment could have ever resulted in that! Oh! Nobody could imagine that! Therefore they were lying! And so it goes .
Why did we NOT go to the moon in 1969? Because we didn't go to the moon in 1979, 1989, 1999, 2009, 2019, etc. Technology improved but we apparently decided that going to the moon was pointless when we went there, bounced around, and stuck a flag in the regolith.
That's not how space exploration works. You don't do the manned mission first and then send probes and rovers later! Humanity must get off of this planet for its survival and for its future. We have killed and are still killing the planet in ways nobody dares mention, and yet there are no serious plans to get out of here and use our innovative spirit for peaceful pursuits rather than genociding each other over words and ideas.
Anyone who thinks we went to the moon in 1969 and yet stays blissfully ignorant of the fact that we (and nobody else) has even tried to go back until Trump said it, is a lunatic who is self-gaslighting.
The big conspiracy theory is not that the moon landing was faked. The big conspiracy FACT is that we didn't go there at all but everyone convinced themselves that the moon landing was totally legit.
"But look at the moon with a telescope and you can see the landing site!" - Easily faked with a simple lander and an autonomous rover like Curiosity.
In every timeline where humanity was not ruled by satanic pedophiles, we would be a multiplanetary species, if not a multistellar one.
There is no reason why we should have self-driving cars before we have a permanent moon base, except that we live in one of the worst possible timelines.
I should point out that, for Apollo, they did send the probes and landers first. Lunar Orbiter. Ranger. Surveyor. If you don't know these important and simple facts, you may be undereducated on the history of what happened.
It's painful to watch so much paranoid delusion. The answer to the question is exceedingly simple, but you don't want to hear it. Nobody in power wanted to go back. After the first few landings, the public became bored and tuned it out. Congress cut the space budget to a fraction of the Apollo level (it was a national crash program) and decided to continue with a Space Shuttle, planetary probes, a Space Station, and orbital telescopes. The Moon was a political dead letter. Everyone was oohing and ahhing over stunning pictures from the Hubble telescope.
Meanwhile other rocket technology was being developed by private industry, just fine. But who had the money to return? No one. All the moaners and the groaners have been silent up to this point---but right on time to complain that somebody else is not providing them the entertainment they think they rightly deserve. Therefore, it must be an evil plot that is preventing it.
The only thing that has prevented it is people sitting on their collective asses, waiting for their entitlement. They should look in the mirror and ask "What have I ever done to return us to the Moon."

What are you even talking about? We went to the moon dozens of times since:
Moon Landing Missions After 1985
China
Chang'e 3 (2013): The first Chinese mission to achieve a soft landing on the moon. It included a lander and the Yutu rover.
Chang'e 4 (2019): First mission to land on the far side of the moon, also included a lander and rover (Yutu-2).
Russia (Soviet Union)
Luna 24 (1976): Last successful Soviet lunar mission before the hiatus, included for context as there were no post-1985 Soviet/Russian landings until the Russian space program's recent activities aiming for lunar return.
United States
There have been no US missions that landed on the Moon after 1985 as of my last update. NASA's focus shifted towards Mars exploration and the International Space Station, though future Artemis missions aim to return humans to the Moon.
India
Chandrayaan-2 (2019): Included a lander (Vikram) and a rover (Pragyan); however, the lander crashed during the landing attempt, making it a partial success.
Israel
Beresheet (2019): A privately funded Israeli mission; it crashed during its landing attempt.
Note: As of my last update in April 2023, these are the notable missions post-1985 that aimed for or achieved a lunar landing. Future missions, such as those planned under NASA's Artemis program and by other countries, may soon expand this list.

Oy vey! He does have a point!
