Ashton Forbes, a healthcare IT consultant turned UFO/UAP proponent, gained attention for promoting videos claiming Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared due to alien interference, despite evidence debunking the footage. Later, Forbes fell victim to a $3,000 scam involving fake evidence supporting his beliefs, but continued to assert a conspiracy against him.

    I honestly feel that was some sort of psyop…. That sub changed so quick to being basically an altright cesspool. Many “conspiracy” or related subs did that around the same time in fact. This seems like… a conspiracy.

      I mean if you believe the Ruzzian election interference angle, because that view on the 2016 election has shown evidence of being so much more than just Ruzzia participating, you would absolutely see that it was basically a psyop, they flooded Reddit, and the rest of social media, with conspiracies, disinformation, and propaganda, and we’ve been all fucked up ever since, now I and many Americans have family we can’t even talk to because they’ve lost their fucking minds and want Donald Trump to become America’s dictator.

      It was definitely a conspiracy, and a psyop, yet all of the conspiracy theorists in their blind biases will hold their ears and close their eyes and blame Killery Clinton and the Jews for it.
