What are some conspiracy theories you have about your own country?
Our great barrier reef is dying and we aren't doing anything about it so I'm pretty sure there's a shitload of oil or something underneath that we can't access without destroying it.
That my country's currency exchange rate against the dollar should be higher but is kept low by the government to lure more FDI. I get the reason but it sucks for Malaysians studying abroad or for people to buy imported stuff especially cars.
Ryan Cooper
port arthur massacre was set up by our own government maybe injunction with the USA to take away our guns.
Kevin Morgan
none sweetie our government is transparent and open with its citizens unlike some sh*th*les
Kayden White
>fucking the great barrier reef for mining reasons when it brings in billions in tourism every year >cutting down centuries old trees in Tasmania and fucking subsidising it >hardly even taxing mining let alone nationalising it to become gigga Norway >fibre to the fucking node
>brings in billions in tourism every year Really? I wouldn't have thought many people cared. Anyway mining would bring in much more than that. And Tasmania needs to stop leaching off the wealth of the country and actually contribute
Martin Luther King Jr. was ultimately more dangerous than Malcolm X, which is why they had him killed.
Nolan Jenkins
trudeau is actually a white supremacist
Samuel Ortiz
Explain
Luis Morgan
the queen secretly controls canada
Connor Peterson
i guess when we were at a stage to build shit it was just generic globalised stuff. I mean even Sydney I saw all the main shit in an afternoon, and the museum was pretty shithouse. I know i wouldn't visit here when its so expensive.
Connor Hernandez
yes, and after taking your guns, the government went tyrani- oh wait, it didn’t just accept it, Port Arthur happened, Bryant was an angry retard
Ayden Bennett
People don't call Australia the lucky country for no reason
Jack Flores
The biggest one for us is about the moon landing being faked. Obviously bullshit, but fun to see the counter arguments
Jeremiah Barnes
usa and uk do secret military tests in the empty part
Actually don't most Australians on Jow Forums like it that way, neeting, not really accomplishing much but just goofing around and eating shrimp on the barbecue
Not my country but Japan has a secret nuclear weapons program. And by what I mean by that, they have a VERY streamlined plan for developing a strategic weapon within months of war if it must be done, likely with help from the U.S.
Jason Wright
Nah, this doesnt make sense. Why even draw attention to it?
Carson Martinez
They didn't create the idea they definitely realized how useful it was to not interfere with idiotic claims however
Jaxon Peterson
They never have. But it all makes a lot of sense from a strategic point. It would be very bad if the U.S. stationed their strategic assets in Japan (Yes I know Guam), so it makes sense from a strategic point of view to have Japan have their own streamlined plan for a nuke.
Japan has the technology (Working home-built reactors, proper space program for missiles), the capital, and the raw resources to build a nuke.
Nicholas Edwards
the japs only have the theory of making nukes. they haven't gone through the actual process of trial and error
This is where the U.S. comes in. Could easily supply them with the adequate designs if they have to.
Gabriel Kelly
Yes, because after the first nuke is fired, everyone will say "okay stop, give Japan a few months to make one". Absolute nonsense
Logan Green
It’s sort of an open conspiracy that the feds are trying to get some uranium that is underneath my county, it’s like 20% of the U.S.’s supply. But we keep clicking them out of it.
Nicholas Jones
There's nothing we could do to stop it ourselves, it's a problem caused by rising ocean temperatures and Australia alone has no bearing on it
Kevin Lee
Well, the Sydney operahouse is a landmark tourists go to see, so there's that.
Jonathan King
yeah but why the fuck would they do that unless the U.S. developed some means to counter nuclear weapons effectively. nuclear superpowers don't want other countries to have nukes and undermine their nuclear power status
Matthew Lee
if we kept our victorian architecture our capital cities would at least look nice and unique, but thanks to the based cultural cringe we demolished all of that in the 60s, 70s and 80s and replaced them with generic concrete blocks
Landon Jackson
That our former president (or his son) was the one who killed her husband (ex-ex-president)
Jayden Nelson
I wouldn't call this a conspiracy by any means. King Jr was a moderate and so his ideas were palatable to a much wider audience than Malcolm X and his "whities out REEEEEE!" mentality. This would have made him much more dangerous in the eyes of anyone with a vested interest in holding back civil rights - Big business, for example.
Austin Mitchell
The american government makes up conspiracy theories and pushes them to muddy the water for the ones that are one to something.
Jackson Collins
Australia has the same. We participate in uranium enrichment, nuclear testing, have 30% of the worlds uranium reserves and obviously are extremely close with US/UK but also have good relations with most other nuclear powers.
Brayden Barnes
No, that's the not what would happen. If war breaks out, do you think nukes would be fired IMMEDIATELY? Not necessarily.
Japan having nukes in no ways undermines the U.S., but it certainly undermines China which is why the U.S. would want this
Noah Gray
What county?
Blake Thompson
If we want unique we should have our own style instead of copying Europe
Jack Evans
no one else had Victorian architecture to the same extent as we did given how late we were colonised
Leo Scott
I certainly do, I wish everyone would just leave us alone to do our thing in peace, instead of all this bullshit with giant mining corporations bribing the government and China constantly fucking with us.
Jordan Roberts
if japan got nukes it would definitely undermine the U.S. it would undermine china as well. this isn't even a matter of debate. you're out of your element on this subject. plus the japs are probably itching for nuclear revenge against america so there's also that
Parker Campbell
Japan could easily get nukes if they wanted to. They have all the available resources. And it's not like there are inspectors looking out for a nuclear japan with a magnifying glass on them.
Brandon Rodriguez
you don't have to be closely monitored to have the signs be visible
William Williams
The official term for it is "nuclear latency" and the US uses it as a loophole in the nuclear non proliferation treaty. Nuclear latent states are a way of giving a country strategic nuclear capacity without actually giving them the bomb. In the event of a major shooting war in the pacific, all Americans have to do is hold on for a month or so and suddenly japan and Australia become untouchable, since they now possess a nuclear stockpile. This forces potential threats in the region to treat them as US aligned nuclear powers on the world stage even though they don't actually have any bombs.
Kayden Miller
not really a conspiracy but pretty widely accepted iraq and afghanistan had nothing to do with wmds or terrorism and were opportunistic warmongering in the wake of 9/11
Jose Jenkins
The swallows are flying south for winter.
Michael Diaz
japan has wanted nukes for fucking decades. if they had the means to build them in the limited span of time necessary to bypass american speculation and intel then they would've. they're scared shitless right now of north korea and china because of their nukes
Angel Morales
People here genuinely believe "global warming" is real. All they do is virtue signal about how the world is going to end in 10 years and that half the country will be underwater.
Jaxson Williams
rather, 9/11 was carried out for the sake of being able to wage those wars
Jordan Bell
>they're scared shitless right now of north korea and china because of their nukes I doubt it. Japan knows that if China or the norks start randomly firing nukes, they risk threat of retaliation by all other nuclear powers, deterring any nukes
Cooper Sanders
The opera house is a hallmark tourism destination, what are you talking about.
Jeremiah Ramirez
The conspiracy theory of the moment is that Moon is a communist who is selling South Korea out to the North.
It's not entirely baseless, he is on the record praising Mao and having celebrated the US defeat in Vietnam. Also, his right-hand man (Im Jong-seok) is perhaps the most pro-North Korean person ideologically to hold office in living memory.
Jacob Bennett
doesn't matter. japan has no real deterrant against nuclear weapon attack, which is their own nuclear weapons
Jace Hernandez
>japan has no real deterrant against nuclear weapon attack, America is the deterrent. They basically get all the benefits of the nukes without the cost
Samuel Rivera
there is no south korea or north korea. only korea
Eli Cook
I weep for the state of architecture in our countries
Owen Hill
and what happens when the cost of protecting japan overwhelms the U.S. once korea reunifies
Nathaniel Martin
A benign one, but there's popular rumblings in the public and around the internet that McDonalds' coffee tastes so much better than Tim Hortons now because McDonalds got Tim Hortons' coffee bean supplier. Tim Hortons was looking to streamline and cheapen their supply chain so they dropped the pricier but better quality coffee bean supplier. I haven't seen any solid evidence or corporate statements supporting this, but it's one that people generally believe nowadays.
Xavier Roberts
damn bro, i had this thought before
Nathan Bennett
ill let my digits do the explanation for you macaco
Mason Evans
Makes no sense. We were going to keep the nukes anyway, so we might as well tag them along in the deterrence. Also, the nuclear program is pennies compared to other government programs, such as social security
Oliver Peterson
nature is better anyways. buildings are temporary, nature is forever.
Benjamin Adams
no shit. the US would arm it allies with anything if it meant defeating its enemy.
Gabriel Cox
>nature is forever >reef is dying hmmm
Nolan Torres
Cuck porn was pushed as part of an Obama administration psyops intended to demoralize white men.
Daniel Lopez
Marline Uranium Corp. announced in July 1982 that it had discovered 110 million pounds (50,000 metric tons) of uranium in the Swanson/Coles Hill deposit, on land that it had leased near Chatham in Pittsylvania County. During the 1982 legislative session, the state of Virginia adopted laws to govern exploration for uranium in the Commonwealth. At the same time, the legislature imposed a moratorium on uranium mining in the state until such time that regulations to govern uranium mining could be enacted into law.[75]
But the US total reserves is 138,000, so it's actually closer to 50% of the US reserves :)
Parker Moore
1)RF is cryptocolony of U.K. 2)Secret project "Contact" (research of paranormal activities in USSR) A lot of them
Andrew King
dunno about the obama part but all porn is bad for you, especially cuck porn
Wyatt Bailey
putin works for the CIA
Nathaniel Cruz
it does make sense. you just don't understand the nuances behind the politics
Nicholas Parker
I just think it was a little fishy that it flooded tube sites at the same time that the left was introducing a new paradigm for discourse on racial issues.
Ayden Williams
1. Judeo-Bolshevism (Conspiracy is it?) 2. The Dulles plan - according to the conspiracy theory, the US action plan against the USSR, compiled during the Cold War and and the purpose of this plan was allegedly the destruction of the USSR by propaganda methods aimed at the moral disintegration of the population.
There are a few I remember, I'm really not into al that /x/ conspiracy stuff.
-Huehueland has secret nuclear weaponry despite all the nuclear disarmament campaigning. There's even a hole in a well known military testing site in the northern region of the country which is famous for being the supposedly testing chamber for nuclear testing. Pic related.
-Brasília, the capital of the country, is well known for being "modernistic" and has several features that were put in place around the city during its construction to aid in case of a war, such as wide highways which can be used as emergency landing strips for aircraft and the proximity to a very wide lake which would hinder enemy advances towards the heart of the city. Some people claim that there was also included an enormous secret underground facility which made a secret of State, and that you can hear heavy machinery noises and feel the ground shaking in some areas of the city despite there being no construction sites nearby. No one knows for what these facilities would be for however.
-Brazil until very recently had plans to develop a cheap rocket, made with assistance of the chinese to aid in reducing costs to put satellites in orbit. In its first test though, the rocket exploded mid-air and the entire project was scrapped. Some people say the americans sabotaged the launch because they feared the government (which at the time was very left-leaning) would attempt to use it to create an intercontinental missile to pressure the US just like the cuban missile crisis. China would have a lot to gain from it, that's why they put so much effort in helping us on that.
its less conspiracy and more common knowledge but incredibly rampant corruption in politics and all parts of the state outside of the military
Connor Bennett
It's also accepted that the CIA was behind the removal of our Prime Minister in 1975 because he was getting too close to the Soviet Union.
John Collins
stupid revisionist!!!!
Cameron Jenkins
Interesting I've always wondered why China hasn't tried to forge military relations with Latin America. Looks like they might have a secret Keikaku after all
Hudson Butler
Tell us about the 8 goddesses that actually run your cunt from behind the scenes.
Matthew Kelly
>celebrated the US defeat in Vietnam. sounds like a cool guy
Austin Martinez
>united communist korea make it happen
Brayden Jackson
China until recently proposed to Brazil and a few other latin american countries to build a huge train line connecting the Atlantic to the Pacific, in order to "assist in shipping products" to other countries and funding the most of it singlehandedly. I believe they're trying to buy influence just like they are doing with africa. A cheeky way to undermine US influence little by little while they're busy bitching at Trump, I'd say.
