The Great Replacement - The White Wing Goes Mainstream

Wednesday Jun 22, 2022

EPISODE 61 | The Great Replacement - The White Wing Goes Mainstream The world keeps changing and some people have had just about enough. So they revert to tried and true paradigms that worked for them in the past, but with a new twist. Like the Great Replacement - the idea that white people are being systematically replaced by non-white people with an eye to eliminating whites altogether. They say the puppet masters are probably Jews, though maybe Muslims, liberals or women. It may seem like a new idea, but it's really just pseudoscientific lipstick on a racist pig. Like what we do?

Red Pill This! The Simulation Proposal

Wednesday Apr 13, 2022

EPSIODE 56 | Red Pill This! The Simulation Proposal Mainly inspired by a 1999 movie, many people suspect we may be living in a computer simulation of some sort. If we are, how can we tell? Maybe by looking at some ideas from physics, which has some truly unusual ideas as to the nature of things. The universe might be made of tiny vibrating strings, or physicalized information. It might be a hologram, or a big brain, or an artifact of statistics. All these ideas seem to point to an underlying code of some kind. Or maybe everything we think we know was just created last Thursday. This is the two-year anniversary episode of Conspiracy Clearinghouse. Thank you everyone for listening and for your support!

The Dead Internet Theory

Wednesday Mar 30, 2022

EPISODE 55 | The Dead Internet Theory Weirdly similar but also somewhat nonsensical tweets, emails that seem written by bots, the same posts showing up again and again - something seems to be amiss with the internet. And some people think they have found the answer: the internet died a few years ago and is now almost entirely run by sophisticated AI bots. This is the Dead Internet Theory. We'll look at the reasoning behind this notion, a timeline of events that includes some creepy real-world DARPA projects, the state of AI and computer-brain interfaces, and a peek at the (possibly) approaching Singularity - when humans and machines will essentially blend into one thing. Special shoutout to Gerd Altmann, who made most of the images use din the video version of this episode and made them available on Pixabay.  Like what we do?

Pootie-Poot on the Prowl - V. Putin Takes Center Stage

Wednesday Mar 16, 2022

EPISODE 54 | Pootie-Poot on the Prowl - V. Putin Takes Center Stage Many see parallels between Putin's invasion of Ukraine and Hitler's of Poland in 1939. Other see echoes of Stalin in today's Russian leader. But maybe we need to go back further, to Napoleon, to see what's up with this guy. Here's a look at "Little Boney", as British satire of Napoleon had it, and "Pootie-Poot", which was George W. Bush's nickname for Putin, as well as what's going on, how it's really all the same playbook, conspiracy theories about the Russo-Ukraine War and more. See a video version on our YouTube channel.
