Mine is that we don't have a worldwide shadow government, that there is no master plan that we are being unwittingly steered towards, that what we see is what we get. :my-hero:

Our ruling class rules us with cruelty and stupidity, just like they appear to do. They are rich because they are rich. They are powerful because of the precedence of power. Any exceptions to their origin stories were just a product of churn to find the cruelest most sadistic peasants to uplift to join the ruling class. :bootlicker:

It's the one theory I have that fits known facts and subjective evidence: we are ruled by emotionally stunted and socially malevolent self-destructive idiots that have some semblance of class consciousness but only enough to prevent upsets at their wine parties or their child-violating island vacations. :epstein:

    Okay, so a lot of social media platforms favor right-wing or even outright fascist views. There are systemic reasons for this. Capitalists are usually chummy with fascists because they're useful idiots who don't get much in the way of profits and keep the commies down. Culture war bullshit drives clicks. Answering to shareholders and the state department means crushing leftist voices until only the far right remains.

    But for my conspiracy theory, I suspect that some group of managers and upper execs at YouTube are deliberately, specifically working to use the platform to promote white supremacist and fascist ideas, outside of all the usual systemic reasons, because they're true believers of that shit. And whoever got it started has nepotism networked it enough that that whole branch of Google's org chart is full of them.
