Americans Believe in Major ‘Conspiracy Theories,’ Survey Finds

ASurvey on American Fears” from Chapman University’s Wilkinson College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences found a large percentages of folks believe conspiracy theories. This is especially true of the Big Two. This shows the percentages of those who agreed or strongly agreed to the question of government cover-ups and concealment of important information. A majority thought so on 9/11, and a near majority on JFK.

The 9/11 attacks: 54.3%
The JFK assassination: 49.6%

I have always felt 9/11 was low-hanging fruit. Even a cursory examination shows enormous holes in the conventional narrative. Of all the topics I have conversations about with normal people, 9/11 is the one they respond well too. This is even more so abroad. Since by and large I am speaking now to the choir, here is a simple high-impact method to broach the 9/11 topic.

Two years ago, my son and I were visiting with an older Scottish couple in a Christmas market imbibment hut. Naturally, when Europeans meet Americans, there is little hesitation for them to share negative views about Trump. Since we have no skin in that game, it’s relatively unimportant partisan bantering. The conversation can then be steered by saying something to the effect of, “Yes, yes, you are right, but there is much more to it than just Trump.”

My son and I both have the advantage of being smart, engaging people; and once the Trump WWE distraction is out of the way, foreigners like that about us — even if we challenge them. And if they slink away, so what. Who cares? So at some point, you just flat out ask: “What do you think about 9/11?” I find the Chapman poll is accurate. There is suspicion. But most people haven’t gone into the rabbit hole.

Thank god for public wifi and iPads. You don’t have time for a major discourse and an argument, but you can rock their world. I showed the Scots one key video. This has WTC 7 coming down eight hours after the Twin Towers, showing clear signs of internal demolition – AND it has the infamous Larry Silverstein “pull it” comment. The video has 20 million views for a good reason. If you need a third, go to video 2 below, the infamous BBC pre-announcement of WTC7 coming down 26 minutes before it happened. The Scotish woman we met in particular was in OMG mode, and the man was at attention.

They asked who did this? Unless it is someone already convinced 9/11 was a false flag, I answer with a question: “Do you think 19 Muslims with box cutters could overcome four airline crews, and then fly unimpeded and with precision, three aircraft into buildings, including the heavily defended Pentagon?” If you jump straight into Christopher Bollyn, etc., the conversation is over, so don’t do that with “normies”.

I have a true reinforcement given that my cousin actually was a UAL pilot. I had asked him, back when I was still a pyjama person, if any crew would have given up the cockpit to a box cutter. He told me absolutely not. Yes, people are suckers for human interest stories, especially if true. Yes, I, too, have the cousin story.

There were other notable results in Chapman’s survey. In Winter Watch’s interpretative framework, Americans have fears properly placed. It found 74.5% have high fear levels of corrupt government officials, 48.4% fear U.S. involvement in another world war and 44.4% fear another economic/financial collapse. Of course, the devil is in the details, as “corrupt government officials” is a misdirection away from the real threat: corporatist Crime Syndicate/Cabal capture of government discussed in spades here.

TNN Takeaway on Tactical Considerations

Unfortunately, the majority of Americans are falling hook, line and sinker for the jihadists and “white supremacist” boogeymen staged deceptions. It looks almost hopeless on that front. The majority actually believe this boogeyman threat is real. We devote considerable effort to exposing this falsehood because so few others do, but perhaps the 9/11 front is the best arena to bust through the lies and deceit. It is the weak link in the Crime Syndicate’s narrative. The evil demonization of Muslims, which Winter Watch covers regularly, has been quite pervasive and successful.

14 Comments on Americans Believe in Major ‘Conspiracy Theories,’ Survey Finds

  1. Notice in the Fear Groups chart that there is no category for Special Ops or Military Contractors acting on behest of TPTB. Some of the white supremacist vote might be leaning that direction.

    • Or Jewish Crime Gangs. If “White Supremacism” can be an option…………..why is “Jewish Supremacism” NEVER an option.

  2. Americans Believe in Major ‘Conspiracy Theories,’ Survey Finds……
    But yet hardly a person is willing to do anything about them.

    • It is a bit like Neo meeting the architect in the matrix just to learn that he is just a variable in an equation which “they” can work around.

    • If they are powerful enough to preserve the official narrative for all these decades, what can be done about them? Each year I think well this is the year that the truth will ‘come out’ and it never does. I hope it will happen in my lifetime but I don’t know…

    • I find that symbol very curious as no one uses it much these days and it would be surprising that a child that young would even know about it. Most of us just do thumbs up for okay. In addition, it seems rather deliberate as if it was required. There’s a message there. Is there something about Pepe the Frog I should know? I’m not familiar with the character.

      • He was made popular long before Trump on the SomethingAwful.com forums. Not in its incarnation today but the character was popularized then. A single comic frame was used where Pepe the frog was peeing with his pants down and someone gasped ‘what are you doing’ or something along those lines and Pepe responded, ‘Feels good man’. The ‘Feels good man’ meme was born from that and that was the only usage of Pepe the frog for about 4-5 years.

  3. Also add ‘terrorists driving cars’ to the list because those random car attacks being popularized these days will be used to mandate automated cars (slave pods) in the near future much to the joy of all the big three auto makers who will get a cut in that deal.

  4. My new method is the “one picture method”. I show people one picture(picture said to be official by media and government)to non believers of questioned event that show official stories to be physical impossible. A few quick examples:

    1) Moon Landings. Any picture of any LEM(lunar excursion module)setting on the moon. Not one picture shows one sign of a blast crater from the 10,000 lb rocket engine used during landing, even if it was throttled back to 3,000 lbs thrust during final few yards before landing it would leave a significant blast crater. We know this because astro-nots foot prints appear as if moons surface is a fine baby powder like substance.

    2)9-11 twin tower collapse. There is one picture of a fireman standing next to one of the collapsed towers with building 7 still standing in the background. If the towers had actually collapsed(pancake theory, A&E controlled demolition theory)there would be a debris pile of at least 11 stories. There are a few beams standing, that is it. Building 7 proves photo was taken on 9/11 before any debris could have been removed.

    Concerning my number fear, that would be the fear of my government.

  5. That’s surprising how JFK is rated lower than 9/11. I didn’t realize that many people questioned that event. Personally I think JFK is easier to convince people since it was so distant and less taboo to question. And once people can acknowledge that TPTB would do that to a president, it’s easier for them to accept that they’d have no qualms about doing the same to civilians.

    • You make some valid points re Kennedy, but on the other hand there is a whole lot more direct, visual evidence on 9/11. You only have to watch that WTC7 collapse, or look at the empty lawn in front of the Pentagon, and decide that you rather trust your lying eyes than some imbecilic gatekeeper media personality.
