    You don't deny they landed on the moon, which is a change.

    Nice photo, don't see anything wrong with it. Unless you are insinuating something..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    I think the implication is that this is a photo of people being tricked into watching CGI footage believing that it's real, live images. And implying that they/we are fools for not seeing how obviously fake it is or for not realizing that they couldn't be showing such footage from outside the craft.


    It's unlikely that there will be any clarification of this however.

    Doubling down then is it, eh?

    I think at this point (if this isn't just a very, very long windup) the only way to prove to you that man has ever been on the moon would be to strap you to a rocket and fire you up there yourself.



  • Subscribers Posts: 41,915 ✭✭✭✭sydthebeat


    markus thinks the implication is the children were sitting on the moon watching it happen IRL



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,232 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    I suspect even if one of these individuals were taken up in space, saw the globe, experienced rocket travel in space, they'd rationalise to themselves that they were "mind-controlled" or some such.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    Just a pity nobody has ever been to space. Otherwise we would have an abundance of stunning, jaw-dropping, out-of-this-worldly, genuine-looking photographs

    ...which we simply don't have.

    Direct footage and streams? "Fake and CGI"

    Thousands of photos of astronauts, spacecraft, landers, etc? "All fake and CGI"

    Testimony from astronauts who've been in space? "All fake"

    India just landed on the moon "Lol as if"

    Massive international space programs running for decades? "All fake and part of a vast conspiracy"

    Direct footage and feeds from the ISS? "Fake/underwater/studio"

    You can see the ISS passing overhead, here is the exact time it will pass "Lol whatever"

    Here's a great one I saw recently. I quite like my watches, specifically the Omega Speedmaster.

    An Astronauts crown broke on his Speedmaster X-33 aboard the ISS and he actually took the watch apart himself and repaired it in zero gravity.

    Really surreal seeing internal watch parts floating about.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,232 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe



    Have to love these 8 hour spacewalks. The CGI is fantastic, so good that no one in the industry or any expert can spot it, except for a Boards poster. Who created a fake photo that was immediately spotted on here.





  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    You've been provided countless examples of photos and videos from space.

    Your original claim on this forum was that there was no images of Earth from space.

    You were provided this and then promptly abandoned that thread after being caught out trying to fake an image in a bizarre attempt to trick people.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    And of course should we try and play along, any and all discussion is killed because the fellow arguing this line won't answer any questions or address any points.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    I agree with most of this:

    Direct footage and streams? "Fake and CGI" True

    Thousands of photos of astronauts, spacecraft, landers, etc? "All fake and CGI" I would use the word fabricated

    Testimony from astronauts who've been in space? "All fake" True

    India just landed on the moon "Lol as if" Lol as if indeed

    Massive international space programs running for decades? "All fake and part of a vast conspiracy" True except for the "massive" and "vast" part. It's a very well organised, very well funded, relatively small team of crooked former CIA and masonic members who are under extreme duress but are paid very very well. The only thing that is massive and vast is the exposure and publicity they enjoy along with the gullibility of their fans of course

    Direct footage and feeds from the ISS? "Fake/underwater/studio" True

    You can see the ISS passing overhead, here is the exact time it will pass "Lol whatever" I abundantly explained this. That is not a magical floating laboratory you can see no more than a child believes they see santa's sleigh

    @Dohnjoe I am impressed, I feel we are making inroads at last.

     True except for the "massive" and "vast" part.

    You of course have evidence of the freemason CIA operating in the USSR, China, India and Russia?

    Why did the Russians agree to fake crash their probe but let India fake land theirs?

    Of course you agree, it's how your mind works.

    You can see the ISS passing overhead, here is the exact time it will pass "Lol whatever" I abundantly explained this. That is not a magical floating laboratory you can see no more than a child believes they see santa's sleigh

    The ISS is visible from earth, people can see it passing overhead.

    You can see it for yourself wherever you live. For example, over the next few days in Dublin

    You can deny it, dismiss it, scoff at it, pretend it's something else (which you 100% will do) - but anyone else can see it. Which will confirm to them everything they need to know about your belief system. It's an excellent example of how unreasonable beliefs work.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    You have not explained how we are able to see the ISS.

    Like all points, you ignore and avoid and expect people to fall for that.

    You have also failed to actually explain how a "small group of CIA masons" are able to pull off a conspiracy like this. You've been shown that this is impossible and ridiculous.


    You've also failed entirely to show that any footage or image is fake.

    The only fakery has been your own.

    It's not unusual that he refuses to address this. According to Markus, all space flight is faked and impossible, so it's not possible for something to be in the sky at these predictable times. There's nothing it could be unless he starts invoking magic holograms or demonic trickery. This will undermine his attempts at pretending to be reasonable, and knows that.

    Or it's possible that like most theorists, it's just something he never thought about too deeply and is unable to come up with an explanation without it being fed to him by conspiracy theory media. So to maintain the illusion of secret knowledge and to avoid having to admit a hole in his beliefs, he will just avoid.

    It's all complete dishonesty even if it's an earnestly held belief.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,232 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    Indeed, perhaps at the beginning there was an earnest belief, but absolutely not now. There's deceit, trickery and dishonesty constantly involved at every step of the way to "defend" the belief (literally, the poster created a fake photo).

    For example, with Alex Jones, for years he maintained e.g. Sandy Hook was an inside job, defended that belief to the hilt, against everything. The day he got to a court, where something was on the line, he instantly admitted it was all lies and nonsense. These people know their beliefs are BS, they just can't "break character" on them or the whole jig is up.

    Has Markus ever tried to submit compelling evidence to support any of his outlandish theories or does he just sit on a throne in this thread, waving his hand and saying 'fake - NEXT!' whenever presented with evidence that the moon landings happened?

    You do realise the freemasons have grand lodges in all of these countries? I've heard freemasonry being very aptly described as being "not a secret organisation, but an organisation of secrets"

    Have you ever thought about what these secrets might be? Or do you think they are simply a faction of bearded old men who gather in large auditoriums and talk about politics?

    The willful and almost weaponised naivety and ignorance in this forum is staggering.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    I think it comes from their belief that every official position (ie. one they don't understand) is a lie. So their own lies and deceptions are just as valid as everyone else's. But because they are special and infallible, and their beliefs feel good to them (or in Jones' case, are profitable) they must be true.


    All of these beliefs are just plucked from the air on the fly because they feel good or they sound good to the mark they're being flogged at. If there's something they can't be explained by the conspiracy theory, then it's acceptable for them to lie and dodge and do anything except face the issue, because they tell themselves others do that too.


    In this example, Markus is unable to explain the ISS.

    His first instinct would be to claim that you can't see it, but he knows this is false and easily debunkable (and of course, he won't actually bother to check himself.) So he has to accept there's something there.

    If he accepts that, he has to explain what it is. It can't be a satellite because. It can't be something natural. It can't be a plane because it's traveling too high and fast, and a small team of rogue CIA masons aren't able to also run a secret aviation program on top of all the other stuff. It can't be holograms. It can't be one of Satan's demons.

    If Markus was actually honest, he'd simply admit that he doesn't have an answer and can't explain it and that it's an issue for his theory.

    If he was actually interested in discussion, he'd be eager to say that and discuss possibilities, including the possibility that his theory is false.

    Not everything needs to be a conspiracy.

    Usually, the reality of a situation is far more banal and mundane.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    Nope. Just declared things fake without any evidence or reasoning.

    When presented with evidence for space flight or anything he asks for, he pretends not to see it and fobs it off.

    It's all just been "you can't explain this" "Yes we can. here's a detailed breakdown of exactly what you want." "lol, how naive. You can't explain this!"



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,123 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    So this small team of CIA freemasons is now a global group of all masonic lodges throughout USSR, China and India who have fooled the scientific community in each country to lie on their behalf about space flight, but nobody in those scientific groups dares speak out because of some reason you won't tell us.

    Is the national leadership of each country in on this as well? Why did Putin agree to faking a crash of the Russian probe and then allow India to fake successful landing of their probe a few days later?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    Remember also that this has to extend to all engineers and other experts who should be able to figure it out. Same for any media organisation or journalist.

    The claim is that NASA is also so incompetent they're dropping obvious hints and making mistakes than anyone, regardless of how little they know or understand, is able to figure it out.

    They are either in on it, or the small group of CIA agents are also able to monitor these people perfectly and enforce silence on top of all of they other things they've got going. Very overworked these guys...



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,123 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    There is also a team of operatives constantly watching anyone with an enquiring mind who might be tempted to go out into their backyard and look up at the sky. Then they leap into action with long poles with mini models of the ISS on sticks which they then wave around over your head to fool you into thinking that you are seeing the ISS pass in front of the moon for example.

    Obviously this is just a very small team of people, and they use Santa's sleigh to be able to make it around the world quick enough to cover all the potential curious sky looking people.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    And also the team behind the various websites and apps down the years that predict when and where you can see the non existent ISS. These people MUST be involved as they have to be faking all of the data and know that there's nothing up there to track.

    Unless the small team of CIA masons who've been running this shown for 70+ years also happen to be experts in fake astronomy and website/app design and are also doing that themselves as well.


    This is why conspiracy theorists can't answer any questions. They know full well how silly their answers have to be.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    Bizarre that you enjoy dragging discussion in to this repetitive nonsense, but yet you persist...

    Here, read this on why lots of people are not required to prop up a deception:

    It is well documented that many NASA scientists were found murdered under brutal and suspicious circumstances (and sorry but no, there will not be a CNN article about it I'm afraid.). Over the years NASA(CIA) have become a lot more careful, a lot more compartmental, literally 99% of the fraud is now done with a computer - literally 1 person could prop up the entire NASA fraud department.

    Out of curiosity, do you think Putin ordered Prigozians death?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    Yes, in that thread it was explained to you why your conspiracy theory is an example of why that argument applies.

    You keep falling back to your unsupported claim that it was a small team of CIA people. It's very repetitive, yet you persist.


    You are also making a claim that Nasa scientists were murdered and you're declaring that you aren't backing this up. This can be dismissed so.

    It also doesn't make any sense. If their fraud was so perfect and complete, its contradictory for them to need to kill anyone. Likewise it's contradictory to claim that these deaths are obvious murders if they are supposed to be covering things up. It's also contradictory to your previous claims that all the Challenger astronauts are still alive because Nasa wasn't willing to kill them for some reason.


    But the most silly thing is your insistence that the conspiracy is being done by one person on a computer.

    This doesn't make your position more reasonable than suggesting that it's a global conspiracy of thousands. It makes it less reasonable.

    And it's impossible for one person to run this conspiracy.

    So the budget is a deception now? 😂

    A conspiracy theory such as the moon landings being faked is a mass lie to the public, a deception. Everyone involved knows they're involved in the lie, to the public, their close friends, family, everyone. This would play on the minds of a lot of people and they'd crack. It would be utterly impossible for the truth not to come out at some stage.

    The budget on the other hand is not a lie, it's a governmental process. Nobody involved has to put their morals aside, they only need to do the job they've been paid to do.

    If it's 'well documented' that many NASA scientists were found murdered under brutal and suspicious circumstances then can you send along the documents or some reading material? Doesn't have to be CNN...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Lorddrakul


    Point of order:

    Actual freemasons are forbidden, on pain on censure, to discuss relgion or politics either at their meetings, or at the festive boards thereafter.

    Just saying.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    Stop acting as though I'm not providing you with information and that you actually care. I'm fully aware that you and your comrades are repulsed by conspiracy theories (and for whatever bizarre reason have dedicated your lives to prevent people from discussing it on a lesser known irish discussion website...)

    But I'll put this here for the benefit of anyone who is genuinely interested:




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,232 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    You aren't "providing information"

    You are just dismissing the entirety of human space travel because you can write the words "lol its fake" on an internet forum. It's not much more complicated than that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    This is not documentation of Nasa scientists being murdered by Nasa.

    Also, a person giving a deathbed confession that you believe proves your conspiracy is another contradiction. You were just claiming that such a thing couldn't happen because too few would be in the loop and such a person would be immediately murdered.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    on pain and censure

    I wonder what this means? Seems heavy handed for an organisation as transparent and innocent as this 😋



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭Lorddrakul


    Excellent deflection, ignoring the refutation of your point.

    Carry on.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    Not deflecting anything. Never claimed they discussed politics either, I asked another poster if that's what he thought they discussed.


    Are you a member of a lodge? I am interested in joining.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    Seems like the "documentation" and "research" just amounts to youtube videos and the ranting of Bart Sibel.

    it's not so much providing information as parroting old debunked claims from folks who don't even agree with him.

    Afair Sibel isn't a flat Earther and believes that there are space missions. He claimed that Apollo was partly filmed in Earth orbit. So not sure why Markus is quoting him as an expert when he's just as deceived as they rest of us.

    I very much do care if the moon landings were faked. If what you say is in fact true, it's potentially the biggest lie and con ever pulled in history.

    Who said I was repulsed by conspiracy theories? I find them fascinating, hence posting in here.

    I'm just an evidence seeker though. Which you clearly are not. That's fine too, but it just makes it hard to take your posts seriously.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    It very odd to be accused of wanting to prvent discussion for asking questions like "what do you believe?" "Why do you believe this?" Or "can you show the evidence you said you had?"

    While believers of the theories do anything but discuss their theories.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,325 ✭✭✭✭o1s1n
    Master of the Universe


    It's a bit weird alright.

    You're allowed to scrutinise the mainstream view to the point of analysing pictures of people in space with a magnifying glass. But on the flip side, if you ask for some concrete evidence of the conspiracy you get snarky replies and smoke and mirrors.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    Not even concrete evidence. That's obviously too much for conspiracy theories. We then usually hear cries of "if we had evidence this wouldn't be a conspiracy theory. Etc etc"

    Just the evidence they boast about having. Like how Markus claimed to have documented evidence Nasa murdered people.

    Or failing that, just the reasons that convinced them to believe in the theory.

    Or failing that even just clarification of what they do and don't believe.


    Meanwhile people who don't buy into theories are getting demands for evidence and explanations.

    (Only for these to be then ignored.)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    It is the biggest lie in history and they had to threaten/intimidate/maim/kill a lot of people to sustain it. Even recent years:

    Look up "A funny thing happened on the way to the moon" by Bart Sibrel in which he shows unedited footage that was mistakenly sent to him by NASA. Footage shows Armstrong, Aldrin, Collins faking footage they claim was from the earth half way to the moon.

    I don't think you are interested, nor are you posting in good faith. There is no way anyone could objectively look at the information I've provided you thus far and still believe that NASA are an honest scientific organisation who made the greatest achievements in human history (but have failed to do anything recently)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    Bart sibrel claims that footage is shot in Earth orbit.

    You claim it's impossible to be in Earth orbit. So Sibrels claim is false.

    Also another contradiction.

    this decades long perfect conspiracy accidentally sends footage that proves the conspiracy to the biggest conspiracy theorist.

    That doesn't make any sense.


    No one has been convinced by anything you've posted defending your conspiracy. All people see is you making false and silly claims and then failing to defend them from basic scrutiny.

    No rational person would look at your posts and tactics and conclude: "Yes it's entirely reasonable that all space flight is being faked by one person at their computer."


    Edit:

    It's also very funny that your example of "documented murder of Nasa scientists" is not a Nasa scientist and not a murder nor is it documented to be done by Nasa.

    I do not believe the moon landings were faked. There is a wealth of evidence to back up the moon landings. The astronauts have spoken about their experiences on the moon, we have footage of the landings, and there are numerous rock artifacts brought back to Earth from the moon.

    It would be highly unlikely for a large group to keep this conspiracy secret for long, especially when the same Moon landing event occurred again in 1971. Exposing yourself so soon isn't smart. People who do things like 9/11, hide UFOs, and kill the US president are smart in how they get away with this.

    Youtube witnesses claimed they saw weird happenings in the 1960s that could be related to moon flight. Astronauts in the '60s were required to undergo extensive training in preparation for their missions. This included learning how to pilot a spacecraft and how to work in the weightlessness of space. Additionally, the astronauts likely filmed some of these training exercises in simulation rooms, which could explain the strange footage that some viewers have seen on YouTube.

    I've looked into this deeply in the past. It's not news to me that this moon landing stuff is fake, but the evidence isn't compelling at all. If you claim NASA has hidden information about UFOs for national security reasons, I can believe you.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,123 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    Is it the same one person generating the CGI footage, messing about with ISS models on a stick in my back yard, convincing Putin to fake crash their probe and also write all the fake scientific literature to back up the fake concept of space flight and planetary orbits etc?


    And this same person has been doing this since the 1950s?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,552 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    why did you misquote "on pain on censure" as "on pain and censure"?

    @Lorddrakul did you mean to type "on pain OF censure"?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,380 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    If you haven't watched "A funny thing happened on the way to the moon" or "Astronauts gone wild" (youtube search) then there isn't much point in arguing against the moonlanding conspiracy.

    New evidence is emerging slowly, you just need to filter out the sensationlised crap. As I have posted about one page back - a video declaration from the son of a guard of the base that they shot the footage from. He presents the names of about 10 people who had exclusive access to a highly restricted facility by order of Lyndon B Johnson, the president at the time who even visited the base during his presidency.

    The moonlandings are real as much as 911 was orchestrated by a cave of bearded brown men who hate freedom and western ideals.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,407 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    No new "evidence" is being produced aside from those like yourself who are arguing that the world is flat.

    The arguments for the moonlanding hoax have been the same tired only nonsense for decades.


    You are right in comparing your conspiracy theory of a flat earth with cheerfuls ideas about 9/11.
