The Ridiculous Conspiracy Theories People Fell For In 2016

US Funding ISIS

Alex Jones’ site InfoWars is currently circulating the conspiracy theory that the United States is actually funding the terrorist group ISIS. And further, they say that ISIS was actually trained by the United States. Interestingly this exact same rumor existed about Osama Bin Laden, who conspiracy theorists also believed to be a CIA operative.

Perhaps it’s just another recycled theory or maybe these theorists are running out of material. Did you know that some people also claim that conspiracy theorist Alex Jones is a disinformation agent controlled by either the CIA or the FBI to spread fake information to the people to distract them from what’s really going on? Wow, a conspiracy about a conspiracy theorist! What’s next?
