So, I heard several people now mention HAARP as the cause for all the natural disasters that have been happening lately. And here I thought the cause was rampant pollution and global warming!

But seriously, I’m looking at the HAARP page on wikipedia and it seems to be an array for studying the ionosphere? How in the hell do you go from “we’re using this to see what’s happening way up there in the sky” to “this causes tornadoes”? Who even started this garbage?

    As conspiracy theory bullshit goes, this is a true classic - almost up there with the Moon landing. Some Infowars-regurgitating twat was spamming about HAARP on an IRC channel I was on like 15+ years ago.

      Yes I remember haarp conspiracy as early as, I think, 98. It was from a friend’s mom who was into David Icky at the time. Definitely a classic older theory.
