I don’t really know what constitutes a conspiracy theory. Diamonds in wedding rings are essentially worthless, yet people still pay exorbitant amounts for them. So, I guess I’ll leave it to personal judgment.

There is so much material out there from people in the CIA itself telling how the cannon of all this stuff is them making people believe that shit, e.g. area 51 to distract from actual weapon testing.

You forgot flat earth.
Hollow earth is a fun one too.
Definitely up there. I didn’t include it because others mentioned it already when I wrote this.
Covid must have multiple but I don’t remember hearing about any concrete ones.
I remember “Covid was a Chinese bioweapon” being popular, alongside “Covid is fake and just an excuse for the government to inject us with 5G microchips”
I was scratching my head about this “vaccination with 5G chips” when I heard it. Apart from not being feasible, I was wondering where they got this absurd idea from.
Until I stumbled over a product: You can buy syringes with embedded RFID chips. That you can use to track “best before” dates and lot numbers with. Or one can check if they forgot one inside the patient after a surgery. It has, of course, nothing to do with the contents of the syringes, and of course it is not 5G but NFC/RFID. But yea, for the stupid and confused this is close enough.
The “bioweapon” thing really triggers me. Even if that were true, these racists be attacking anyone that looks Chinese and blame literal civillians for something that a government allegedly did. Absolutely insane.
If someone mentions “Covid” and “Bioweapon” in the same sentence, I’ll gonna keep my distance because I afraid to get attack by a bunch of Karens/Kens for how I look.
That’s because it got mixed up with the very real and muddy “lab leak vs natural jump” debate.
