10 Frightening Conspiracy Theories

10 Frightening Conspiracy Theories | WebUrbanist: "Secret-societies rule the world, Elvis is still alive and working down at the Piggly-Wiggly and giant lizards are in the White House. We certainly love our conspiracy theories and the Internet has become a giant repository of the paranoid, the disturbing and the downright crazy. We read it with a mixture of alarm and amusement, knowing most of it is improbable, but we’re still left with nagging doubts. After all, we know that governments really do assassinate people, commit criminal acts, and manipulate public opinion by the use of black propaganda. We know from published documents that the CIA experimented on unsuspecting subjects with LSD and that elements of American government really did consider carrying out terrorist attacks against U.S. citizens to manipulate public opinion back in the early 60s. So if the impossible is possible and the unthinkable has indeed been thought, then what else might be true ? If there’s even a little bit of truth in any of these ‘conspiracy theories’ then the world we live in is truly a terrifying place."
