In today’s world dozens, if not hundreds of different conspiracy theories exist. It is impossible for the average person to quickly get a sense of what to believe and what not to believe. This article should will help the reader to quickly navigate to the conspiracy theory swamp in orer to be able t…

Intro 2. Bogus conspiracy theories 3. Credible conspiracy theories and cover ups 4. More on credible conspiracy theories "We have come to a circular place. The CIA occupies that region in the modern mind where every truth is obliged to live in its own denial; facts are wiped out by artifacts; proof enters the logic of counterproof and we are in the dream." August 16, 1976, Norman Mailer for New York Magazine, 'A Harlot High and Lowe: Reconnoitering Through the Secret Government'. "The first thing we revolutionaries lose is our wives. ... [Then] we lose our freedom, our happiness, our means of living. We lose many things." August 24, 1978, "Comandante Cero" Eden Pastora, while fighting the CIA-backed Somoza dictatorship in Nicaragua. Later sold out to the CIA, but not nearly enough, apparently making him the target of the (unsolved) 1984 La Penca bombing. (August 25, 1978, Information Services on Latin America (ISLA), p. 87, 'Commander Zero') Intro Beautiful, unmarried Indian jungle girls: the biggest danger to conspiracy research. There are two symbolic representations of true conspiracy research that I particularly like. One is trying to cross barefoot and without any aid the biggest and densest tropical rainforest on the planet. Even if you succeed in making it to the mountain top on the other side of the jungle, it's going to take a while. And apart from getting lost every five minutes, you'll encounter dangers and distractions all along the way: from creepy bugs and leeches trying to lay their eggs in every orifice of your body, preferably as close to the brain as possible; to comfortable Indian villages filled with beautiful, young, promiscuous girls. However... if you truly desire the truth, you have to keep going; you can't get distracted for too long. Thus, better be careful with those girls, because, as Shakespeare wrote, Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. In fact, the entire village is likely to come after you with their spears if you're looking for some much-needed "R&R" and then try to resume your quest. The natives are unlikely to appreciate your need to indulge in the beautiful art of fact-checking. Your place is alone, in the wild. Excavated Mohenjo-daro, a large 40,000 inhabitants city in Pakistan that flourished around 2,600 B.C. Birthplace of the written script, alongside Sumer and Ancient Egypt. The other comparison I like to make is to archeology. As you're very slowly and very carefully excavating a newly-discovered structure, you gain more and more oversight and more and more insight into what it is that you've actually discovered. But it takes a long-long time before you can walk into the ancient buildings, analyze the ancient inhabitants' daily lives, and start to decipher the stone inscriptions left behind. Patience is key, possibly for a lifetime, and even then there are no guarantees that you'll have found the insight you're looking for. And if you have, it's very much the question if anybody else is really interested in hearing about it. Archeology can be a lonely quest, much like a lengthy jungle trip. To get to the point, after writing about conspiracy and parapolitical affairs for about 20,000 hours at this point, having produced quite a bit of unique documentation and studied the spiders and leeches gathering around disinformation shows as Coast to Coast AM, the Alex Jones Show and Rense.com, I'm quite certain that I can help the average newcomer to the conspiracy business a little on his or her way -- easily saving a decade of full-time study and organizing. I may not have reached the mountain top yet, but join me and we can comfortably dangle from a steep cliff somewhere halfway up. Or, if you prefer, you can join me in finding those stone tablets, because most of the buildings have definitely been excavated at this point. Below the reader can find my personal opinions as to what conspiracies to discard or take serious, as well as the most important conspiracies that need solving and/or official acknowledgment. The links will take the reader to a relevant ISGP article for more information. "To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind. There's no comfort in the truth; pain is the whole you'll find. I'm never gonna dance again." ~ 1984, George Michael, Careless Whisper. Bogus conspiracy theories ISGP considers the following widely-pushed theories absolute nonsense. Mind you, these conclusions were not reached on a Sunday afternoon, but over a period of 20 years of continuous research. This list has slowly been expanded over the years. Readers can follow the links, where available, for more information. Holocaust denial or "revisionism": Ever met a Nazi or Holocaust denier in real life? Most haven't, but online, they're everywhere. Ignore the many discussions about concentration camp Auschwitz. Instead, read about Babi Yar and the eastern European extermination camps of the Nazis and the Ustasa, or look up the visual evidence. You'll get the point. Jew-hating - in its "deniable" form or not - is super-effective at pushing ordinary people out of any conspiracy discussions and at forcing censorship measures. Thus, like an ever-spreading virus, it remains very prominently present in conspiracy communities as 9/11 "Truth", conspiracy-related search engine results, comment sections of alternative news sites and conspiracy- or immigration-related forums. It's all over (the now defunct) Bestgore.com as well - anywhere really where government-skeptic "misfits" might potentially try to express their opinions and start organizing. Let's not forget either that leading black supremacist and hip hop icon Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam is a major spreader of it, once again alongside conspiracy disinformation. Must be a coincidence. The modern conspiracy Nazis go back at least to the General Douglas MacArthur-linked Liberty Lobby and its legacy of Holocaust-denying conspiracy publications: the Spotlight, with its long-time Bilderberg focus; the Institute for Historical Review and American Free Press. Rense.com is the biggest conspiracy (disinformation) Nazi site over the past two decades and has also hosted the radio program of the prominent Stormfront forum. Security state trolls are everywhere here, pushing ordinary people out and perpetuating artificially constructed stigmas. Fake Moon landings. To illustrate, most recently the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) project has been making pictures of the various landing sites. Astronauts Buzz Aldrin and especially Edgar Mitchell are compromised national security assets, however. Gordon Cooper, who testified to the bogus Disclosure Project, most likely too. Chemtrails. Hollow Earth. Flat Earth, a theory which, along with dinosaurs-never-existed, space satellites-don't-exist and nuke-bombs-don't-exist, has been making an internet revival since about 2015 through Eddie Bravo on the increasingly visible Joe Rogan Experience podcast. Both Bravo and Joe Rogan are CIA-tied. This type of disinformation has led to more widespread trolling, including hurricanes-don't-exist, whenever online discussions take place when a new hurricane approaches the U.S. - as I personally first noticed in September 2019 with Dorian. Pizzagate "code words". Illuminati, Holy Grail and Templar bloodline theories. Historically there is some merit here, but not in the present. Freemasonry having any political significance in the present day, apart from the local level here and there. As with the Illuminati, Freemasonry and its esoteric variations do have their place in history. With 9/11: pod, hologram, 10-foot Pentagon hole, no-plane, drone, remote control, basement bomb and seismic spike theories. Any of the prominent talk about "nanothermite" is suspicious, although the much older suspicion of thermite is not. Also bogus is the famous account of Barry Jennings for WTC 7. Anything more than 4 shots with the JFK assassination, with shooters usually placed in locations as the Daltex building and sewer drains. Conspiracy icons in this area all are massive frauds: CIA lawyer Mark Lane, the New Orleans elite-funded Jim Garrison, the "liberal CIA" movie director Oliver Stone and everyone else. That having been said, Oswald's CIA ties and evidence of a second shooter are very legitimate research areas. A second shooter with the 1968 RFK assassination. This is total, big media-backed disinformation - and even backed by RFK, Jr.! Fact is, there isn't even serious evidence that it involved a conspiracy. The CIA murdering Malcolm X in 1965. He was murdered by his own Nation of Islam, with Malcolm X saying beforehand that his time was up. This doesn't take away that Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan - who at the time called for the murder of Malcolm X - has been spreading conspiracy disinformation on 9/11, etc. Ancient Aliens, the most (in)famous example being Zecharia Sitchin's Anunnaki from Niburu (Planet X). Lost continents as Atlantis, Lumuria and Mu ever having existed. Atlantis was a bedtime story invented by Egyptian priests to appease the Greeks for which zero tectonic, other geological, or archeological evidence exists anywhere inside or outside the "Pillars of Hercules" / the Straight of Gibraltar over the past hundreds of thousands of years. The Atlantis myth was revived by the Cayce Cult. Edgar Cayce believed he was the reincarnation of "Ra-Ta", an Atlantean half-god who built the Great Pyramid with anti-gravity technology 10,500 B.C. In turn, New York Times' best-selling author and the Coast to Coast AM-pushed David Wilcock considers himself Edgar Cayce's most recent "reincanation". The 1513 Piri Reis map showing Antarctica - unless one wants to believe that Antarctica started around Rio de Janeiro in that period. Instead, it shows an estimated, undetailed, totally incorrect, uncharted eastern coast line of South America. All the claims of Graham Hancock and allies, which strongly overlap with the Cayce Cult and include beliefs of the Ark of the Covenant and Atlantis: The existence of a large-scale ancient civilization before 3,500 B.C. The Great Pyramid or Sphinx being older than roughly 2.600 B.C., let alone dating back to 10,500 B.C. as the Cayce cultists and Hancock people claim. Any major South American ruins being older than roughly 2,000 B.C. That the Olmec heads of Central America represent African blacks. That Roswell involved an alien spacecraft, although the sheer number of locals conspiring in pushing the myth for so many decades is absolutely breathtaking. Alien Moon bases, Alien messengers, alien abductions, alien-human hybrids, "star children", the Bentwaters/Rendlesham Forest incident, Majestic 12, Area 51, the Dulce base and other UFO crash retrival or underground UFO base-linked stories. Crop circles, despite their complexity, being produced by supernatural or alien messengers. The evidence points to a very large-scale psychological warfare and disinformation campaign. Any UFO claims made by witnesses of Steven Greer's Disclosure Project. Any of the UFO claims of Tom DeLonge and the national security elites involved in his To The Stars group. Bermuda Triangle and Devil's Triangle. John Coleman's Committee of 300. David Icke's interdimensional Reptilians or Reptilian aliens. The Cathy O'Brien and David Icke's Queen Mother stories related to large-scale Satanic child abuse. Genuine high level Satanic conspiracies. Granted, there exist quite a few accounts of SM, snuff and ritual abuse-type practices, but it's impossible to say at this point what exactly is going on here. There's just too much disinformation, even in police files it appears. Thousands of children, or even more, permanently disappearing each year into snuff networks. The Ted Gundersons and David Ickes of this world forget to mention that 90% or more of "disappearing" children are runaways who resurface within days or weeks. Everything that has come out of Ted Gunderson's mouth, starting with the McMartin Preschool Satanic Ritual Abuse case he played a major role in creating. That bankers as the Rothschilds and Rockefellers rule the world all by themselves. It must be said, though, both families have been very influential on history, with David Rockefeller being the primary person responsible for building the post-World War II supranational NGO network. People being poisoned with "mercury-laced" vaccines, or via other additives. Virtually all theories surrounding COVID-19 / the Coronavirus, which has spread the world since late 2019. There's been an endless stream of "tip-givers" to ISGP pushing a variety of these theories, with many countries having prominent "Corona conspiracy theorists", immediately telling you how important it has been to the superclass to create a disinformative "alternative narrative". Bogues theories on Corona: That is "just a common cold", with lockdowns and masks only being instated for "population control" measures. Granted, more studies are need to prove the efficacy of masks. And the amount of (Asian, but also white) people dutifully wearing them like it's a badge of honor is scary. That vaccines were introduced as "population control" measures, that they weren't working, causesd high numbers of deadly side effects, or were used to kill off the population. All these massive exaggerations and inventions only served to undermine genuine worries (seemingly permanent tinnitus would one of them), now or in future pandemics (contrived or not). Yes, deadly side effects did seem to happen, especially early on with one or two vaccine brands, and yes, it does seem the mainstream media underplayed them. At the same time, the "alternative" media blew everything completely out of proportion. Quite possibly the origin of COVID-19 from a Chinese biolab, located 300 meters from the fish market where COVID was said to originate. As later research seems to show, it's entirely possible the virus first spread at a sub-section of the "fish market" where exotic animals were traded. It's possible that the Chinese government originally did not know for certain if the biolab was the source. It also seems clear that the WHO displayed an unhealthy bias to the Chinese's government's narrative. In any case, if it indeed turns out that the biolab theory is not true, it would be much for fruitful to wonder why elitists as former MI6 Sir Richard Dearlove were promoting this theory quite virulently. All of Trump's conspiracy claims, including the one that there was voter fraud during the 2020 election. Little green men from Mars or any other planet in our Solar System. Elvis still being alive. Tupac or Biggie still being alive or having been murdered by the CIA. More information on this will follow. In other words, the kind of stuff that completely dominates the internet and "alternative" books and has been put out for years by the huge Art Bell/Coast to Coast AM show. Credible conspiracy theories and cover ups: a full list of the most important In contrast to the claims that can be found above, the following conspiracies are considered credible by ISGP. The most important and/or easiest conspiracies to expose are listed near the top, although this is by no means a rigid structure. The links point to a wide variety of mainly very extensive, well-sourced articles of ISGP. The guiding of the 9/11 hijackers by U.S.-Saudi-Pakistani elites, and the melting/blowing up of the Twin Towers and WTC 7 in 2001, leading to a new era in world history with a never-ending, continually-escalating War on Terror that greatly indebted the United States. The escalated terror threat - also due to relentless Arab immigration - has provided a never-ending excuse for increasingly extensive police state spy programs, especially in the U.S. The 1963 JFK assassination. At the very least everybody should be allowed to guess the location of the final shot based on the Zapruder film (clearly the right-front, from an upward angle; not from behind, from six stories up) and be made aware that countless witness testimonies pointing to the grassy knoll at the right-front were omitted from the CIA and Rockefeller-linked Warren Commission. Richard Helms' protege at the CIA, the notorious Ted Shackley, almost certainly coordinated the assassination. The "great replacement" or "great extermination" "theory" for white people. Not only has this one replaced 9/11 and the War on Terror as the most dangerous and destructive conspiracy of all time… truncated (18,156 more characters in archive)
