/v/conspiracy seems to be taking on a more... political tone. Not saying that is a bad thing. There is no reason we should not be questioning what is going on day to day.
But honestly I miss the good ol tin foil hat conspiracy theories. Steven Greer with his UFOs, Ancient Astronauts, Simulation Theory, Planet X, Hollow Earth, Flat Earth, Reptilians, Shapeshifters, Aquatic Ape Theory aka mermaids, Steve Quayle and giants, Bigfoot, Wendigo, Skin-Walkers, Chupacabra, Ghosts and other "spirit" realm beings, and just David Icke in general.
I can't say I buy into anyone of these, but I find them all very entertaining. And I think with the general openness of Voat that we could have some very interesting conversations about anyone of these topics (I'm also honestly curious on how the shrills will knock everyone of these down).
Edit: I forgot some good ones, Chem Trails, Weather Modifacation, Haarp, MK Ultra, and Project Blue Beam

It's because right now Voat is in a very cold hardened political phase with the upcoming election. Expect the return of such ideas after the elections-- then people get back to being bored and thinking about these things.
What do you thunk about aliens?

Stumbled upon a book about crop circles when I browsed the local bookstore. It was strangely compelling, they were talking about complex patterns they'd see in how the plants had been knocked down and there wasn't really a good answer for it.
Do I believe in aliens? Not sure. In either case I don't expect they'll affect my everyday life any time soon.
Regardless, I think the most likely candidate is that we're being watched and assessed. Keeping tabs on our growth and progress - something tells me our current handling of global warming gets a poor grade.

No I meant illegal Mexicans. /s
Just kidding-- I don't know enough about aliens to make an educated opinion.
