@Pliskin_Chad Must make you jealous huh? Most of you wouldn't qualify to mop their bathrooms. Shame they're way, way behind on paying..... do your shills pay well?

@JDC52 Everybody needs a hobby and I just like to argue sometimes. There's a Flat Earther on this video that posts on almost every single comment thread these days. Usually more than once. He's the one you should be asking if he's paid because he not only posts obsessively, he's contradictory and deliberately stupid.

@ArranVid The people telling you otherwise are real snakes. If it wasn't, they wouldn't need to be so eager to lie.

@DarrenP-yu4lq I mean.... Armstrong looks identical to how he looks in his other post-mission interviews, Collins mostly looks bored and like he's going to fall asleep, and Aldrin is known to have had a big fight with NASA prior to the mission about them changing First Man from him to Armstrong basically last minute and making excuses about it. But of course they totally didn't go. So..... care to explain to me what none of you cowardly "truth seekers" will do and explain why you people have to constantly lie about your evidence.

@haywoodjablomi2526 Have you ever watched the post-mission conference for Gemini 8, Armstrong's other mission? He gets praised as this massive hero for saving the mission. How does he act? He spends twenty minutes fidgeting like he's sitting on an anthill and describing how being launched into space is the most exhilarating thing humans have ever done while talking in a complete monotone like he's reading from the dictionary. So, how do you "fail a vibe check" by the same result you gave the last time you were a hero? I personally would not be jumping for joy. After two weeks in space, and another three in a quarantine trailer and debriefings, I would not be running on "We went to the moon" dopamine. I'd be running on empty, mentally and physically exhausted and wanting nothing more than to go home, have a good meal, and do nothing but sleep in my own bed for the next week. And considering that I stammer when nervous or frustrated, I can only imagine the fun you people would have when I start skipping like a broken record. I'm going to be blunt: I fully expect that a good portion of the armchair psychologists in this chat would immediately lose their attitude and shit their pants if they were forced to give a press conference in front of the entire world.

@collinweeks6322 Have you watched the post-mission press conference for Gemini 8? Armstrong spends twenty minutes fidgeting and squirming like he's sitting on an anthill while describing how going into space is one the greatest thrills man has ever experienced in a monotone like he's reading form the dictionary. This is while he's being actively praised as a hero for saving the mission
1
@NASA-criminals ..... and they instead decided to use Armstrong for their "hoax" in full knowledge for years that he couldn't act to save his life? That makes even less sense.
1
@Rspenesmit Have you watched the Gemini 8 press conferences? So, tell me.... what was Armstrong lying about there? Because he spends twenty minutes describing how launching into space is one of the greatest thrills ever experienced while fidgeting like he's sitting on an ant hill and talking in a monotone like he's reading from the dictionary.
1
@HansHaz2000 Have you watched the other post-mission interviews? Armstrong's Gemini 8 press conference, several years before, is 20 minutes of Armstrong talking about how exciting spaceflight is in a complete monotone like he's reading from the dictionary while squirming and fidgeting in his seat like he's sitting on an anthill. This was while he was being praised as a hero for narrowly avoiding a fatal disaster. Funny, you'd think that that would be a reason to be smiling too, no? Did you know that Aldrin's life is a disaster? Not only did his mother die within the previous year and his marriage is falling apart, NASA changed "First Man" from him to Armstrong shortly before the mission, resulting in him blowing up at them before the mission. An honor stripped from him, which can never, ever be undone, and it's "proof of fakery" that he isn't smiling? Interesting that hoaxers like yourself never, ever discuss the fact that Aldrin has reasons to be angry that don't involve the mission being fake. Why is that? Collins looks bored. I caught him yawning last time I watched.
1
Aldrin also has marital problems either during this time or shortly after, a family member that didn't get to see this because she lost her battle with depression within the last year, and likely holds a bit of a grudge because he was originally supposed to have been the first man on the moon instead of Armstrong. Any of these would be reasons for him to be upset. For some bizarre reasons, hoaxers tend to avoid talking about any of these points because only their predetermined idea of "they must be lying" applies and nothing else in their life matters.

@3y35poihjpn Sorry for the slow response, work has been extremely busy and frankly RL is more important than arguing on the internet. Now then, where to start.... This shit's been around for ages. Here's an 11 year old video details David Percy's What Happened on the Moon? If you can't be bothered to watch, he gets caught (among other things): Cropping photographs to remove details that disproved him, blatantly lying about his playback speeds (which was accidentally proved by another hoaxer trying to defend him), cherry picking frames to lie and claim that details were "missing" when they were visible less than a second before, and more. part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2qEEoQCb2I part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByiMQXVyY74&t=336s part 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyQV1s9uGqk David Percy is the owner of Aulis, your #1 website by the way. His coauthor Mary Bennett shouldn't be trusted at all because she's either a professional kook or a professional scam artist. She makes her living writing books about how she has psychic powers and claims to have found her hoax information using ESP. If you don't believe me, it's on Aulis's About The Authors page. Bart Sibrel's work has been shredded for ages. Among his other lies, which you can find discussed, he has so-called "proof of the astronauts faking the distance to the moon." The trick doesn't work in a moving vehicle (no method of cropping will stops the features outside from changing as the ship orbits), and he GOT CAUGHT editing around shots in the original that disproved him. Here's the clip he doesn't want you to see. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jghYBAI3i6o&t=175s Here's part 1 of a full breakdown of A Funny Thing on the Way to the Moon. The full things' about an hour and a half. I don't expect you to watch the whole thing, though. Conspiracy theorists never do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4oEDCeigzs By the way, Sibrel neglects to mention in his other video where he shows how "angry the astronauts are to be called out on the lies" that he got into their houses by lying about his identity and has a criminal record for stalking and trespassing. Clavius.org has a large amount of criticism of the hoax claims, particularly the older ones (it's an older website). This includes the fact that "photographic expert" Jack White tried to pass off HIS OWN EDITS as "anomalies" with deceptive editing and perspective tricks, and calling out Dr. Groves, one of the only "scientists" willing to put their name on your work, for pulling bullshit such as rigging his radiation tests with levels thousands of times higher than the listed values on Apollo, and doing heat tests using the only method of heat transfer that doesn't exist in space Your "Australian Coke Bottle lady" forgot that that nighttime in the US and Britain is DAYTIME in Australia, and yet people still believe her bullshit story about how she "stayed up late to watch the live broadcast and saw a coke bottle that was gone in the morning" - despite the fact that the broadcast happened at 11AM in her time zone. If you really want to ask around, I'd recommend going to the Apollo Hoax forums, where they have discussions on many, many hoax videos and papers, including complete demolitions of a number of the pages on Aulis, as well as the fact that they have articles written by FICTIONAL PEOPLE. I like the one on stereoparallax article by "Oleg Oleynik" that not only destroys the article, but also discusses the fact that nobody can find any evidence that he even exists despite his claim to have "founded a university." Where is this proof? All over the place if you got off your ass and LOOKED instead of writing it off as "lies and propaganda". I mean... the hoax claims MUST be true, right? People that oppose the big evil government would never lie.
1
@3y35poihjpn Oh, fun fact by the way, the reason that nobody debunks the #1 Hoax Youtuber Jarrah White isn't because he can't be debunked. They went "Well fuck you" to his conduct and started ignoring him because about 8-10 years ago, he got fed up with only being able to censor criticism on his own channel and decided to CENSOR YOUTUBE ITSELF with false and abusive copyright strikes against hundreds of his critics' videos in a deliberate (and somewhat successful) attempt to get their accounts banned.
1
@georginawhitby1320 And you know it's disinfo because goes against your beliefs, and therefore it is automatically Government Lies (tm) regardless of how much of it is actually true. It doesn't matter how many times you're caught lying. It doesn't matter if there's proof. All proof is just disinfo anyways. We shouldn't listen to that. We shouldn't criticize the brave, wonderful, talents, and super honest conspiracy videos. We should just believe everything they tell us like good little sheep... I mean, "awoken critical thinkers". No offense, but that's not really a compelling argument when most of you would scream and call your own nose "disinfo" if the government handed you a mirror.
1
And not the fact that his marriage fell apart or the fact that his father died shortly after the missions or the fact that he has a family history of clinical depression ending in suicide? You wouldn't blink twice if a normal person started drinking because of any of these, so why are astronauts so special?
1
@scott-o3345 What, because I post multiple times? I wonder why the checks haven't come in, these student loans aren't going to pay for themselves. Hey, do you know who pays the conspiracy theorists that post frequently? Surely the fact that they do it more than once or twice means they're working for somebody too right? Did Aulis get sick of inventing fictional scientists and start paying people to promote their position? Or is it that conspiracy rag that Marcus Allen works for? Oh shit, my bad. I'm not supposed to mention the FACT that your side's #1 professional photographic expert is a PAID SHILL for an Australian equivalent to the National Enquirer.
1
@scott-o3345 So any comments on what I acutally posted? No offense, but we know that calling somebody a "shill" is just a big fat stinking lie made to discredit people without actually addressing anything they said. Pretty pathetic that you have to lie like that.

@wildboar7473 You're just jealous that I'm spot on and you just have old tired cliches.

@stillperfectgenerations5852 ..... yeah, I'm sure Trump's deadline is totally based on "America being sick of it!" and not because 2024 is an election year and he's trying to get it done by the end of his presidency to stroke his ego.
1
If I spent two weeks on a highly stressful mission in a tin can with barely more room than my bathroom, then three weeks cooped up in a quarantine trailer, then another month being shipped to another country every two days with barely enough time to fight off jet lag, I'd be both mentally and physically exhausted. My thought process wouldn't be "Yeah! I'm such a badass woohoo!" It'd be "Can I go home now? I want to see my family and sleep in a real bed for the first time in three months."
1
But Armstrong had a reputation for hating and avoiding interviews even before he joined NASA and we know that Aldrin has a rough personal life at this point and may be a bit salty still because he was originally supposed to have been the first man on the moon instead of Armstrong. Collins mostly looks bored and tired. Also, I would like to point out that public speaking is statistically one of the most common human fears. No offense, but if we took the armchair psychologists in this comment section and put them up on stage in front of a large audience and broadcast to the entire world, I bet half of you would shit your pants.
1
So you do realize that Buzz Aldrin didn't actually mean that they didn't go at all, but continued to talk about why they STOPPED, blamed it on money, and said they went about 3 more times in the same paragraph, right? I wonder why the hoaxers never show you that part, why they don't include the rest of his statement in his "confession".... I'm sure it's fine, it's not like they're hiding it from you. They just don't want you to be confused is all.
1
Ah yes, a conspiracy thriller in a decade where everybody and his brother was making conspiracy thrillers with plot holes in the "conspiracy" large enough to drive a train through. You realize that NASA helped MAKE the movie, right? not only did they give technical and scientific advice for it, they lent their very own training props to be used in the movie. Strange behavior for an organization that supposedly murders people to keep it quiet. You know, they probably took one look at the script and went "you know, this is a clever idea" and rolled with it as a self-deprecating joke. I bet they had almost as much fun on the set as the time they got together with Kubrick's widow to make their own "The moon landings were faked" documentary for April Fools Day.

@tjharley85 Nah, it's easier still to lie to a conspiracy theorist because they'll believe anything you say as long as it makes the government look evil. No offense, but the hoax leaders lied about their evidence, edited their footage to remove contradictory details, invented bogus 'facts" to support them (pro tip: the six feet of lead to cross the Van Allen Belts is made up), created fictional scientists to write their articles in order to make them seem more powerful than they actually are, and in the case of Jarrah White the #1 hoax Youtuber, filed hundreds of bogus copyright claims against his critics' videos in a deliberate attempt to get their accounts banned. Filing a false DMCA claim to harass people is PERJURY by the way. Worse, several of them did it for PROFIT. Its kind of hard to take you guys seriously, and none of you have the balls to call them out on it. Maybe you should take a step back and ask yourself who the true monsters are.

@tjharley85 By telling the TRUTH from which you run like a vampire from garlic because it crushes your fantasy? Okay, I will.

Question. Why would any alien civilization land on our moon, a barren rock in the middle of nowhere, instead of landing HERE, a thriving world with resources? I'm sure there are other barren lifeless moons closer to their home worlds if they really want to mine so why here and what are they doing up there that is worth "threatening" to not go back?
1
I'm going to give you a word of advice. If you ever want to make a hoax video and decide to LIE about your evidence, make sure that nobody, under any circumstances, ever gets a hold of your source material. Bart Sibrel's "faking the distance" video has been proven to be complete horseshit for over ten years. The slimy bastard tried to rearrange clips and edit out portions of the raw footage which not only completely contradicted him, but which contained shots that are PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE to perform with the trick he claims was used.... and GOT CAUGHT pretty much the instant that anybody else got their hands on that tape. If you want to think "Oh, he might have been mistaken", then why does he STILL push that same video even though he's had his nose shoved in it like a dog that shit the carpet a dozen times over by now? By the way, the MINIMUM speed to maintain orbit is more than 17,000 miles per hour. The clips he used, uncut, are about 12-15 minutes long each. At that speed, the astronauts would have crossed between 1/8 and 1/6 of the entire planet during that time, so explain to me why the clouds and landmasses barely change even though a REAL ship in orbit would have seen entire oceans or continents pass by them during that time? Either the astronauts are least far enough away to get geosynchronous orbit, which completely undermines the entire logic behind the hoax in the first place because that is INSIDE the outer Van Allen Belt, or that is not the Earth. Either way, Sibrel is WRONG.

Conspiracy theorists get you the golden cupie doll.

@eventcone From what I heard, Kaysing admitted that he started the movement to get back at the government for Vietnam and didn't actually believe it was true originally..

Thomas Pickering So when are the hoaxers going to come out and admit that they're frauds? They're still pushing the same bogus claims decades after being caught blatantly lying.
1
Thomas Pickering Our dishonesty? Your #1 website Aulis is run by David percy, who has been caught cropping photographs, lying about his playback speeds, deliberately showing poor-quality photos for "analysis" and much, much more, and Mary Bennett, who makes her living scamming people and claims to have found her information using PSYCHIC POWERS, and has been caught inventing fictional" scientists" to write their articles with bogus credentials. Bart Sibrel has been repeatedly caught lying about his evidence, including editing his "faking the distance" video to remove sections of it that contained shots that cannot be performed with the trick he claims was used, because he knew that you idiots would be too stupid to check. Note both Percy and Sibrel have made tens of thousands of dollars in merchandise sales off of you idiots. Your photographic expert Jack White tried to pass off his own edits as "anomalies" and got caught. Your "scientist" Dr. Groves rigged his radiation and heat tests with levels thousands of times what would be on Apollo and using the only method of heat transfer that doesn't exist in space. The actress (at least I hope she's an actress) that played the "Australian Coke Bottle" lady forgot that her story needs to actually take place in Australia and told a big pile of bullshit about how she "stayed up late to watch the live broadcast and the bottle was gone in the morning".... despite the fact that the broadcast took place at 11 AM in her time zone, and you people still believe her. Whoops. Many of the hoax videos just blindly repeat the same claims over and over and over that were disproved twenty years ago because your "truth movement" is a giant circle jerk that doesn't give two shits about learning and doesn't care if the information they give is even true as long as you morons lap it up like a starving animal. It's this same bullshit over and over and over and over. Gee, look at that, why don't you explain why you "truth seekers" are hoaxing? Oh wait, you won't, because you don't give a shit if you lie or are lied to as long as it's not the big bad evil government.' Answer the question: when are the "truth seekers" going to admit that they're all frauds?
1
Thomas Pickering You know, it's easy to "Not see any bogus claims" when you refuse to listen. Even a child can go "La la la, I can't hear you." It doesn't make them smart. Keep believing the hoax leaders. I'm sure they'd never lie to you.

Capricorn One is a plot hole filled mess that only works because the director has ensured that every single person in it acts like a complete moron. If it was genuinely an attempt to show that "NASA lied", then NASA wouldn't have helped MAKE the movie to the point of lending them their very own training props. Why was it REALLY made? Because in the 1960s and 1970s, following the success of the Manchurian Candidate and subsequent real world headlines such as JFK and Watergate, the studios were pumping out conspiracy thrillers on literally anything they could come up with from real world events to fictional assassination attempts on real world figures to complete fiction. If you want a movie with an actually interesting backstory look into The China Syndrome and how a movie about a cover up at a nuclear power plant was released two weeks before Three Mile Island.
1
Yes, the conspiracy theorists do lie through their asses, and yet people still trust them even after being caught lying about their evidence, inventing fictional scientists to write their articles, and cropping and editing footage to remove sections that disproved them.
1
You do realize we know for a fact that the "shut up elbow" is as bullshit as the sky being pink and purple polka dot because there are TWO separate camera angle recordings of this press conference, right? Why do the hoaxers lie? Why do they never show the front angle, where you can see that the astronauts are too far apart to elbow and that Armstrong moves elbow BACKWARDS towards himself?
1
@reyrey4261 Armstrong had a reputation for hating and avoiding interviews even before joining NASA and Aldrin's personal life is shit with plenty of reasons to look upset including death in the family within the last year, a failing marriage, and a big shouting match with NASA's admins he may still be a bit salty over because he was supposed to have been the first man on the moon instead. Collins mostly looks bored and tired. Meanwhile, the hoaxers are all smug smiles while on screen and not a single one of you ever notices any "suspicious behavior" from them even though they've been caught blatantly lying. Here, let me transcribe their thought process for you. "We're scamming people without remorse and the "truthers" are too stupid to care or notice because they'll believe anything we tell them."

Telescopes resolution isn't based on distance. it's based on SIZE and how large it is at a given distance, which is much easier for stars and galaxies because they're billions upon billions of times larger. Hubble doesn't have the resolution to see anything on the moon, man made or natural, smaller than about the size of a football field, so how is it supposed to see anything on the moon from Apollo when even the largest object we left doesn't make it to the ten yard line?
