Most Reliable, Real News and Conspiracy Websites
The best conspiracy theory websites are largely a matter of opinion. This is because “best” is a function of both what makes up a conspiracy and how reliable the information truly is. Below is a list of 5 of the more well-known conspiracy theory websites available.
Best Conspiracy Theory Websites
1. Zerohedge
Zerohedge is a conspiracy website commenting on politics mainly from a financial perspective and was established in 2009. It is controversial, conspiratorial, anti-establishment and pessimistic on the outlook of the economy, expecting a crash scenario. Many are doomsday preppers in anticipation of a crash. Commentators and viewers of Zerohedge tend to be strong libertarians, bordering on anarchic libertarians. What this means is that many of these are convinced that the whole system needs a crash and a reset in order to fix the inherently flawed monetary system. While this crash will be painful it is much better than the alternative of gradually getting poorer and poorer while the rich get richer. Zerohedgers are mainly advocates of sound currency and are against government intervention in the free market. They are more likely to have invested in gold and bitcoins and have cash on hand. They are advocates of small government, lower taxes and sound money. They also tend to see whites, Christians and males as being under-represented and trodden on in modern day America. These people allegedly no longer have a say in an oppressive political correctness regime due to false stereotypes. They are generally pro-trump and anti-immigration and want a return to historic American values and sound money. The site has gained prominence and readership in recent years with the destruction of classic American values and sound monetary policies, such as the devaluation of money through quantitative easing. Zerohedge is said to be run by a Bulgarian named Daniel Ivandjiiski,a former hedge fund analyst. All posts are signed off with the name “Tyler Durden”, a character from the movie fight club. Up to 40 people are reported to be allowed to publish under the pseudonym Tyler Durden on the site. The blog has been criticized from moving away from its core values, and now engages in profit generation as opposed to truth revelation. Ivandjiiski say is was always meant to generate a profit, justifying the increased click bait featured on the site. It has also been criticized for being such a strong supporter of Vladimir Putin, Russia, Trump and China and for being a needlessly strong opponent of Obama. Despite this, it gained in popularity for providing credible alternative views to taken for granted mainstream American media, and still does so today, albeit with a slant.
2. Infowars
Infowars is probably the most popular conspiracy theory website in the West. It was established by right-wing talk show host, writer, filmmaker and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. Not surprisingly, his website has been labeled as a fake news website by many mainstream commentators. Jones has been at the center of many controversies. He has been very outspoken in his views on gun control, the Sandy hook massacre, 9/11, the Iraq invasion and secret technology by NASA. He also touches on the New World Order (NWO) who are actively colluding to form a one world government with one set of rules and one currency. The main theme of infowars is anti-globalism. Globalism is domination of all sovereign states by a number of private elites. Through globalism can be instigated a set of laws and rules which will apply to all citizens of the world, under the guise of making the world a better place for all citizens. The concept is linked to the New World Order and how they could come to control the world. Following on from this infowars is pro-trump, as he is seen as a nationalist who is concerned with the improvement of America. Trump is seen as being against the “deep state”, the powers which pulls the strings of all governments. The election of Trump, the exit of Britain from the EU and the possible victory of Marine La Pen in France are all seen as victories for nationalism against the evil of Globalism. Jones shares many of the standard viewpoints of a number of conspiracy theorists. He is conservative, pro-Russia, anti-inflationary monetary policies, a self-described libertarian and right leaning. New York magazine described Jones as “America’s leading conspiracy theorist” and the Southern Poverty Law Center describes him as “the most prolific conspiracy theorist in contemporary America”. When asked about these labels, Jones said that he is “proud to be listed as a thought criminal against Big Brother”. His followers tend to be younger than typical right wing audiences of the sort who would traditionally follow Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh. Hillary Clinton criticized Donald Trump for his ties with Alex Jones in the run-up to the 2016 presidential election. While it is an entertaining and controversial website, it is not what could be called a balanced and integrated perspective on current affairs. And Jones has a poor track record when defending his views and opinions on other talk shows. He tends to use inflammatory language and is very biased in his conservative beliefs.
3. Global Research – Center for Research on Globalization
The Center for Research on Globalization was founded in 2001 by Michel Chossudovsky. Michel Chossudovsky is a Canadian author and economist, working as an economic advisor to developing countries. Chossudovsky examined the economic profiles of countries associated with the International Monetary Fund and arrived at the conclusion that tax havens had facilitated the criminalization of the World’s capital, as they act as a funnel for funds acquired through illegal means such as drug smuggling. He also worked as a consultant for the world bank and the world health organization. He was awarded the gold medal of Merit by the Serbian government in 2014. The website describes itself as “an independent research and media organization” that provides “analysis on issues which are barely covered by the mainstream media”. Some sum up its views as simply being pro-Putin and Anti-NATO. A lot of such sites tend to view Putin as an opponent of globalization and NATO as an extension of globalism. It maintains websites in several languages, including English. It is also critical of the official story of the 9/11 attacks. In 2005, The Jewish Tribune criticized the Center for Research on Globalization’s website for being “rife with anti-Jewish conspiracy theory and Holocaust denial.” Chossudovsky responded that he is of Jewish heritage and would be one of the last people to condone anti-Semitic views. Other theory’s advocated on the website include HAARP technology, the Global warming conspiracy theory, the New World Order and FEMA concentration camps. All the conventional conspiracy theories are reported on. However the difference is that this site represents a more nuanced view on such topics. It relies heavily on official documents and research and does not use any of the inflammatory language or left/right divisive language in getting its points across.
4. Educate Yourself Org
Educate Yourself is described by the editor Ken Adachi as follows:
Educate-Yourself.org is a free educational forum dedicated to the dissemination of accurate information in the use of natural, non-pharmaceutical medicines and alternative healing therapies in the treatment of disease conditions. Free Energy, Earth Changes, and the growing reality of Big Brother are also explored since survival itself in the very near future may well depend on self-acquired skills to face the growing threats of bioterrorism, emerging diseases, and the continuing abridgment of constitutional liberties. It is strongly recommended that visitors to this website print out hard copies of the information that is of interest. Do not assume that your hard drive, this web site, or even the Internet itself will always be there to serve you.
While the message that the Internet might someday not be available is needlessly cryptic, the site does present some interesting information on items related to alternative health. It also does outline some doomsday scenarios which might not be of interest to the average reader, but be more suited to doomsday preppers. All major conspiracy theories are covered in the site, including chemtrails, 9/11. The New World Order, Emerging diseases, Free Energy, Communication, Aliens, Mind Control, Global Warming, the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, Illuminati goals, cloning stations and much more. The website itself is also spam and click-bait free, with all the main topics easily outlined for the reader on the top of the page. It is perhaps the best conspiracy theory website in terms of its design and appeal. No popups, no ads, no spam, no videos, no click-bait. It has an interesting mix between doom and gloom and moving forward to a brighter future. It is perhaps the most concise and intelligent conspiracy site available, as it describes conspiracy workings in a manner devoid of ego, emotion, passion or bias. The editor finishes on the first page with:
Difficult times may lay ahead, but we have the capacity to circumvent much of the intended misery by becoming FULLY aware of the manipulation and deception being injected into our daily lives. Everything seen in national and international “news” is scripted and planned. There are no surprises. The Illuminati creates conflicts and ‘scenarios’ in order to introduce their ‘solution’ to the ‘problem’, thereby implementing their hidden agenda of total control and chainless enslavement of every single person on the planet. The way to undo the New World Order enslavement agenda is through knowledge and honest information. Let’s assist each other with that goal in mind
5. The Drudge Report
The Drudge Report was one of the oldest conspiracy sites still running. It is run by Matt Drudge with assistant Charles Hurt and is mainly an aggregate site with headlines from the Drudge Report with links to other news outlets. Drudge occasionally writes articles himself on the site. It mainly features alternative news about political events and financial news items. It is more of an alternative news report as opposed to a conspiracy blog. It does not feature any articles on UFOs or government false flag attacks. The Drudge report originally started out in 1996 as a newsletter, costing $10 for a year-long subscription. In 1997 the website was launched to supplement the newsletter but quickly became the prime feature of the news outlet. It was the first media outlet to report the Monica Lewinsky affair between Bill Clinton and the 22-year-old intern, in 1998. This brought the Drudge Report to national prominence.
The Drudge Report does have a record of publishing misleading or false stories. In 2004 it took a speech made by John Edwards out of Context and it falsely reported that Donald Sterling, owners of the Clippers, was a Democrat. Drudge also claimed that White House press briefings were staged and that government stimulus gave cash to immigrants. Drudge has described himself as conservative, but with a populist slant. There is little debate that the Drudge Report does have conservative leanings, given the links to conservative media. Peter Wallsten, of the Los Angeles Times, labeled Drudge a “well-known conservative warrior”. Saul Hansell, writing in the New York Times, called Drudge ” a conservative muckraker”; Glenn Greenwald, of the New York Magazine, referred to him as a “right-wing hack”. Greenwald also stated that the Drudge Report is part of the “Bush/Cheney right-wing noise machine”. The Drudge report is a very influential media outlet and has an effect on mainstream news media It is not viewed as a fringe conspiracy blog such as Infowars, but more like a fundamental right leaning organization. The Drudge Report website acquires over three million views a day.
These are Five of the best conspiracy theory websites. They main reason these are the best is because they are the most popular and controversial. They cover prominent news stories as soon as they are released and also provide an alternative view on current affairs.
