If that were really the way out of the matrix, why would they let the secret out in a movie seen by hundreds of millions?

    best way to debunk a narrative is to take control of it

    Right. I have this conspiracy theory that the media and the government encourage UFO conspiracy theories so they can make them look nuts and crazy, so they are easily dismissed by the mainstream population. Same with the JFK assassination and a bunch of other stuff.

    They've actually been caught doing this, in some instances.

    There was a guy picking up radio signals and chatter from a classified test aircraft or something like thag.

    He thought it was weird, reported it to local authorities.

    Long story short, the military / government gas lit the fuck out him, told him it might be aliens, keep researching it.

    He eventually went pretty much completely insane.

    Do try and keep your wits about you when delving into such stories and theories.

    Some are total nonsense spread by grifters, some are innacurate but genuine reports, some are intentional mis and disinfo... and some of it is real.

    It's a fucking mess.
