10 Conspiracy Theories That Aren't So Theoretical After 2022

Christmas travel alert:

We’ve got Siberian frost from the north and a border invasion from the south.

But many of us, whether on the road or not, will be in a storm of a different persuasion once gathered around the dinner table with family this weekend.

As for me, I’m fortunate to have a family that isn’t in a cult.

But others aren’t so lucky.

Just like last year, politics and culture increasingly impact our lives.

And our government’s failures continue to influence what’s under, or not under, the Christmas tree.

So political arguments might heat up during this year’s festivities as more proof of conspiracies is released to the public.

And the establishment knows it.

They know they can’t gaslight political dissenters as they once did.

That’s why we see articles suggesting how to deal with “conspiracy theorists” during the holiday season.

Yet these authors conflate extreme conspiracy theories with current news stories, such as NASA faking the moon landing, Q-anon, or Tom Hanks being a cannibal.

And big brands, in my opinion, like KAYAK, contribute to the establishments bidding by suggesting that people asking questions are conspiracy theorists.

You know, it’s been a while since I’ve seen white people as the focal point of an ad.

Then I realized they were the villains in the story, so it makes sense.

Anyway.

It’s time to get your tin foil hat and get ready for Christmas dinner.

Let’s discuss ten “conspiracy theories” and how they have evolved since last year’s holiday meal.

In no particular order.

#1 We’re On the Verge of WW3

Last year, as the family prepared Christmas dinner, your Uncle Darryl might have suggested that we were fast approaching WW3.

And most people would have smiled and nodded.

But that changed on February 22 when Russian forces began their “military operation.”

And butts puckered around the globe last month when a rogue Ukrainian rocket struck Poland and killed two people.

We’re lucky Poland, or another EU country, didn’t assume it was from Russia and fire back, escalating the conflict.

And the US and other countries continue to poke the bear by supporting the proxy war with funding and who knows what else.

For all we know, there are American Green Berets and SEALs fighting in Ukrainian uniforms.

#2 The Government Colluded With Private Companies to Influence the 2020 Election

Complaining that the Hunter Biden laptop story was censored at the request of the US Government might start an argument in 2021.

Not so much this year.

After Elon Musk released the Twitter Files, we know the Twitter admin built a portal for government agents to submit censorship requests.

Not only that, but the new Twitter management found ex-FBI and ex-CIA agents working at the social media giant that Musk caught leaking emails.

Poor timing for any leftists joining the Christmas festivities.

I’m sure they’ll suggest leaving politics at the door this year.

#3 They’re Coming For Your Children

As the kids set the table last year, Darryl might have mentioned that teachers are indoctrinating children.

And while this isn’t news in 2022, it’s getting worse with the increased sexualization of children.

At first, they said, “it’s just story time.”

Then it was “just dancing.”

And now its simulated sex on stage:

Detailed story here, best left until a few hours after eating.

And the insanity escalated further this month when Project Veritas uncovered new levels of child abuse in an affluent Chicago private school.

An undercover journalist captured the Dean of Students at Francis W. Parker, a private school with up to $40k tuition, admitting he tells his students how to use adult toys properly:

#4 Black Lives Matter Is A Scam

Suggesting that BLM was a scam as family and friends dug into the Christmas ham in the past two years was a great way to get the cranberry sauce flung at you.

But the comment isn't so far-out anymore, thanks to Candace Owens’ hard work on the documentary The Greatest Lie Ever Sold.

Since the death of George Floyd, the organization has made millions in donations from private citizens and public companies.

But where is it?

Owens’ investigation found a lot of money unaccounted for and evidence suggesting the organization laundered cash through real estate.

Maybe there’s a legitimate explanation.

But since BLM leaders refused to explain themselves, we can only conclude the obvious.

Please pass the potatoes.

#5 Increase in Unexplained Deaths

Any conversation suggesting conspiracy theories surrounding CV since the outbreak could get you fired, banned from social media, or disinvited from Christmas.

This year, Tweet away, as Elon Musk recently discontinued the CV misinformation policy.

Through 2022, we’ve heard story after story of not only people dying of “unexplained causes,” but many of these people were young and healthy.

With the November release of the documentary Died Suddenly, many people are asking questions.

And now we’re free to talk about it.

According to Rice University, deaths continue to rise, even when CV is removed from the equation.

How are so many people dying from “unexplained circumstances” in 2022?

If we know the government colluded with Twitter to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story, what else are they hiding?

Green bean casserole, anyone?

#6 The Chinese Government Is Spying On You

Through the Trump years, there was a lot of China on the table, but not the expensive dinnerware.

But thanks to Joe Rogan’s podcast, where he read out the TikTok terms of service during an episode with Theo Von, it’s now common knowledge.

We collect certain information about the device you use to access the Platform, such as your IP address, user agent, mobile carrier, time zone settings, identifiers for advertising purposes, model of your device, the device system, network type, device IDs, your screen resolution and operating system, app and file names and types, keystroke patterns or rhythms,  battery state, audio settings and connected audio devices. Where you log-in from multiple devices, we will be able to use your profile information to identify your activity across devices. We may also associate you with information collected from devices other than those you use to log-in to the Platform -TikTok TOS

So not only is TikTok collecting your data on your phone, but they’re also accessing other devices on your network.

If you have a smart home, maybe the Chinese government knows your thermostat schedule or whether your home security system is armed.

Since TikTok is a Chinese company under the Chinese Communist Party, then TikTok is effectively the Chinese government, helping itself to your personal information.

And it’s totally legal if you click “OK” after downloading.

Last year’s holiday visit wasn’t short of “conspiracy theories” and comparisons to George Orwell’s book 1984.

But throughout 2022, we saw more examples of what’s supposed to be fiction.

We recently witnessed the outbreak of the White Paper Protests in China, where the government’s insane CV mandates led to the deaths of many civilians, including people burned in their homes while welded inside.

In the book 1984, the government changed the meanings of names, and it’s happening in reality.

Last year, the CDC changed the definition of “vaccine.”

This year, Stanford University wants to officially consider the word “American” as potentially offensive, suggesting people should instead say “US citizen.”

Over at Cambridge University, they opted to include the definition of a man and woman as follows:

I find it extremely offensive that Cambridge dared to use a criminal act in this definition while portraying a woman of color.

Better watch it, Cambridge.

The mob’s always looking to eat their own.

#8 There Is a Global Cabal of Elites That Would Appreciate it if You Stopped Living

Family members might be more familiar with the World Economic Forum this year than in years past.

While your uncle might have droned on about globalist elites trying to depopulate the Earth and wrote it off as a conspiracy theory, the WEF is more open about their intentions this year.

Here’s a video from October with WEF speaker J. Carl Ganter saying he had a sense of relief at Jagasish Vasudev’s frankness about the subject.

“They want more souls; I want less on the planet,” Vasudev says.

#9 US Government Supports Human Trafficking and Drug Smuggling

Illegal immigration has been a hot topic for many families at Christmas, but like child abuse, it’s only worsened.

Last month Hopkins County, Texas, declared a state of disaster due to record numbers of illegals pouring into the country.

The declaration states:

“The health, safety, and welfare of Hopkins County residents are under an imminent threat of disaster from the unprecedented levels of illegal immigration, human trafficking, and drug smuggling coming across the US border from Mexico,” according to The Daily Wire.

Since Biden doesn’t care to address the border situation, including danger to those crossing and illegal substances entering US communities such as fentanyl, we can only assume the Biden administration doesn’t care.

That’s why the Texas National Guard sent troops to El Paso, as illegal crossings continue to increase.

But as authorities continue to find dead people, including children, floating in the Rio Grande, leftists say border security proponents are racist.

#10 The CIA Was Involved In the JFK Assassination

How many shooters were on the Grassy Knoll on November 22, 1963?

This question and others like it made the CIA's involvement in the JFK assassination one of history's most popular conspiracy theories.

But the vast majority of information surrounding the incident is available to the public, as it has been for years.

On December 15 this year, Biden released additional documents after a federal hold expired.

But not everything.

As it stands, only 97% of the JFK Assassination Records Collection is public.

So there are still secrets out there.

Earlier this month, a former CIA agent told a Tampa ABC affiliate that while there may not be a direct conspiracy, there’s still cause for concern that the government is still keeping secrets after all these years.

What are they hiding?

Are we waiting for everyone involved to die?

What an exciting dinnertime conversation.

Reason for Hope

People around the table this year might just be bummed out and not argue at all.

Between child abuse, a tanking economy, and proof of government corruption, many might wonder if there’s hope.

I say there is.

As bad as things may be, we must understand government corruption isn’t new.

We just have proof now.

And with more people paying attention, it will be much harder for the establishment to carry on.

The question is, do we allow it?

Do we stand up and search for the truth?

Or do we allow actual disinformation to spread?

While it’s widely accepted that Trump suggested people drink bleach to combat CV, it’s a lie.

And it was tolerated online while people were banned for simply asking questions about masks and vaccines.

So what are we supposed to think?

So next year, let’s pay attention to people running for president.

Let’s ask them the tough questions and stop voting for more of the same that’s leading us on a path to globalization and authoritarianism.

And let’s not give establishment Republicans a pass because they pretend to stand for American values.

It’s an elitist game, but they have our attention.

But for now, let’s have a safe holiday that doesn’t result in a domestic dispute.

So thanks for stopping by for dinner, and thanks to those of you reading along this year and sharing these articles as this newsletter passed its first birthday this month.

I’m looking forward to sharing better news next year as we continue to shine a light on the establishment elites that leave everyday Americans and our friends around the world conflicted as world leaders pursue globalist agendas.

Merry Christmas!
