I'm doing my senior research paper on conspiracy theories. This paper is a requirement to graduate I guess.

I'm doing it on conspiracy theories and propaganda, sort of. Like, I'm addressing how people twist facts to get people to share their views with my references being a couple of Michael Moore's films. I'm also delving into the Kennedy assassination theories and the dumb theories people have about 9/11.


What else could I use in this paper, Clock Crew?

You probably already know about this but the zeitgeist internet movie is probably worth a mention.

PolyhedronClock

You should add something on how people always jump on the conspiracy theories, and how viral marketing (internet) contributes to it.

PropagandaClock

Watch "Why We Fight"
It puts the whole thing in context. Once you've watched that you understand what drives america and how.
There is no man behind the strings

You're right, I never actually watched that, thanks for reminding me of it though.


Also guys, if you could explain what conspiracies your film attributes to, that would be great.

Why We Fight
is not a conspiracy film asmuch as it just plainly explains how it all works, why it happend etc.
You could have it as a formal/kognetive piece in your analyzis since it brings a voice of reason amidst all the shitty theories

History channel had a whole TV series on conspiracies.
Roswell and Pearl Harbor are some pretty good yet ridiculous ones.

There's also the actual Confederate conspiracy which failed in killing all but one person, Abraham Lincoln.

Also if you want to go way back, there's the Caesar conspiracy
Or the one where Nero set Rome on fire to persecute the Christians.
Or the Free Mason conspiracies.

FluxCapacitorClock

I don't want to go too far back. In fact, so far at least, all of my stuff is being tied to modern films. Which was unintentional when I started.

Believe it or not, many fraks at school think its Osama in disguise and go all FUCK VOTE FOR HILARY NOW DONT YOU SEE HE IS OSAMA TRYING TO GET IN THE STATES!? IT IS OBVIOUS HE SHAVED.

I fucking swear.

Topcatyo

Add something about Roswell.

FluxCapacitorClock

A vote for Hillary brings almost as much destruction as a vote for the actual Osama in my eyes.

This isn't a political debate thread though. Post more conspiracy shit please

I don't know of any movies but the Pearl Harbor conspiracy is pretty interesting. I still don't think, like George Bush except way better and with polio, Franklin Delano Roosevelt would sacrifice thousands of lives and millions of dollars just for a reason to attack the Axis forces.
