A curated, connected archive of conspiracy theories

Every theory connects
somewhere.

Start anywhere — a break-in, a hijacking, a haunted house — and follow the thread through the people, places, and events it actually shares with the case next to it. Every connection is graded documented, speculative, or disputed, and grading isn't the same as proof. Nothing here is true just because it made it onto the board.

COINTELPRO
✓documented
The FBI ran a secret decades-long program to spy on, infiltrate, and actively sabotage civil rights leaders and anti-war activists — and its own internal files, stolen and leaked, prove it.
COINTELPRO (Counter Intelligence Program) was a series of covert, and at times illegal, FBI operations from 1956 to 1971 targeting American political organizations, including civil rights groups, anti-war activists, and Black nationalist organizations, using surveillance, infiltration, and deliberate disinformation to disrupt them. The program's existence and tactics are fully documented through stolen and later declassified FBI files.

The Dead Internet Theory
⇄disputed

Birds Aren't Real

A satirical joke claiming the U.S. government replaced every bird with a surveillance drone grew into a real movement with real followers and real merchandise — and its founder eventually had to explain, on the record, that it was always a joke.
