What are the best schizo conspiracy theories you guys have heard? My favorite is that Medea, an illusionist witch and also the former wife of Jason (was a whole thing lol), controls the media as the word sounds vaguely similar to her name and they're also "illusionists" (obviously ignoring that "media" is a word that comes from medium and applies to literally anything including that post it's self lmao. Mainly heard this one from "pureblood" accounts on Gab. Any funny ones you guys have heard on your travels through the web?

@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer Hell isn't real.
-
But you don't merit Hell ...
-
Do you steal?
-
@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer Yes, especially from women, and that's a good thing.
-
Do you lie?
-
@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer Yes, especially to women, and that's a good thing.

@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer I don't. Not in the sense that I'm subject to some divine punishment by a jewish God who created the entire world on a usury system of sin debt, anyway.

@bobbala @dick @Witch_Hunter_Siegfired @plotinus_enjoyer If salvation wasn't based on merit in Christianity then everyone would be saved. The existence of hell is proof that Jesus wasn't necessary at all and God could've provided any avenue he wanted, but chose to be convoluted to show off.
VERY CRINGE. Why is he so desperate?
(Or Calvin is right and no one should bother thinking about it bc it's all strictly predetermined from the beginning anyway.)
-
If you were worthy, why would you need salvation?
-
If you were perfect, you'd be worthy instead of saved. He does the perfecting. We get there.

@Witch_Hunter_Siegfired My favorites are historical influence ones. I was on right wing dharma Xitter briefly (before they banned my 1500 follower acct 😡) bc I was interested in Eastern philosophy and religion and there are mountains of copes about how the Buddha was secretly a huge influence on Platonism, Greek/Italian culture at large, and even early Christianity (but they'd say Christianity stole it illicitly somehow, whereas it's legitimate in all the other cases.)
It is true that the Greeks made contact with followers of the Buddha, and other dharma traditions, during Alexander's conquests, but a cursory read of the philosophers reveal distinct departures in teleology right away that make any causal influence unlikely even at that point. Eastern religion essentially views the goal of life as death, or at least the death of anything in you that can cause karma and trigger a rebirth. In the West the goal is either virtue or outright deification. (Both East and West have variants of fatalism/nihilism/skepticism but they're not worth mentioning bc they always die out.) The only thing they share is incidental similarities like reincarnation, and that's an easy inference to make bc of how patterns repeat in the real world.
The one I find the most believable is that Jesus was influenced by the East. I don't think he literally traveled there, though that is one of the conspiracies, but Jesus teaches certain charitable virtues that were not significant in the West until Christianity became an imperial institution, but were common in India and other regions in East/South Asia.
