Comments by "MRA" (@yassassin6425) on "Top 10 Conspiracy Theories of the Century (So Far)" video.

"Chemtrails and weather control: I was out on a very (with real clouds) cloudy day, looked like rain. I saw the planes out spreading the chemicals up in the sky. In a matter of 30 to 45 minutes later the clouds were gone" So on a cloudy day you also simultaneously saw some aircraft contrails? Righto. "Tell me that's not weather control." Ok. It's not weather control. "Why are they pushing clouds out of the area and causing drought?" What? Pushing clouds out of the way? Has it at any stage occurred to you that drought is a natural phenomena? "I live in Arizona and have seen this happen many times." So one of the states in America most prone to dry and arid conditions then. "What are those chemical trails for?" You are observing aircraft contrails. "It's certainly not to cover the sun to protect us on hot days like they claim" No one 'claims' anything of the sort. "if they are spreading the chemicals on real natural made cloudy days and making the clouds disappear." Classic association/post hoc fallacy. "These planes and the chemicals they are spreading are causing the drought. Not climate change" Incorrect. Climate change is exacerbating and intensifying natural weather events. Areas that are prone to drought such as the American south west are experiencing this more, just as those parts of the world that have high rainfall are afflicted by an increased incidence of flooding. However, the aviation industry does have a high carbon footprint which is contributing to climate change. "Plus those chemicals they are spending are not good for the environment." What chemicals? and who precisely are 'they'? "Think I read somewhere that they might be causing seriously bad changes to the environment and affecting the plants and trees and I think our health in harsh ways." Then stop looking at dumb uniformed conspiracy theory.

@barbaraduncan3126 "very hilarious. I know the difference between contrails and chemical trails." Of course you do, you are an online conspiracy believer, you know everything - the internet said so. "Contrails disappear quick behind the plane." Really? Why? Detail the physical laws that determine this. "Chemtrails are lines that stay and spread out and connect to other lines that other planes leave that are spreading the chemical trails making a cloud type cover in the sky." And out of curiosity, how do you differentiate these supposed 'chemtrails' from persistent spreading contrails that have been observed, documented, recorded, photographed, filmed, measured and studied since the early advent of high altitude powered aviation and in excess of 80 years and are understood by the fields of aviation and meteorological science? "You are not looking up to see and are being misinformed about the dangerous chemicals they are spreading in the sky." Well, I obtained my post graduate qualification in 'Applied Meteorology and Climatology' over two decades ago and having alpine climbed since the age of nine, qualified as a mountain leader which has seen my work spanning four continents. Added to which, my field was ground based remote sensing, and as a keen astronomer, well, you could say I've spent most of my life 'looking up. It has been my living. Really simple. I suggest that you yourself, 'look up' lapse rates, relative humidity and dew point, understand a bit about cloud formation and learn some basic facts about aviation - in addition to gaining a modicum of humility. Then you'll be less likely to humiliate yourself by arrogantly parroting nonsense off the internet about subjects that you clearly haven't the slightest clue about. "So either become informed or stay blind to the truth." Said the believer in a dumb online hoax that has managed to be convinced that a cloud is a conspiracy theory. Now as requested, could you detail the physical laws that determine that a contrail must necessarily 'disappear quick behind a plane' whilst at the same time, explain the duration of a cirrus cloud. In your own time.

@barbaraduncan3126 Again, said without the slightest hint or scintilla of self-awareness. If I had, I'll wager that unlike yourself, even such a brain dead troglodyte would be able to differentiate between a contraction and a determiner. Do you believe in mythical creatures in addition to chemtrails? Why is it in addition to being completely scientifically and digitally illiterate, you people are completely unable to comprehend the meaning of an internet 'troll'? I am in complete agreement with this video and am merely challenging and asking you to substantiate your claims - which is something you freaks absolutely detest. As the one posting junk conspiracy theory, ill-informed nonsense and ad-hominem logical fallacy on this comments section, actually the troll would be none other than yourself. Now, returning to the question, could you detail the physical laws that determine that a contrail must necessarily 'disappear quick behind a plane' whilst at the same time, explain the duration of a cirrus cloud. When you're ready.

Sigh. Cloudseeding isn't denied - no one is suggesting that that it isn't real, why are you changing the subject? Moreover, it does not employ 'barium' or 'aluminium', nor does it 'create clouds' spray, or leave a trail. It also has nothing whatsoever to do with the misidentified aircraft contrails that conspiracy believers term as 'chemtrails'.
1
"Ok this video is a little older so they may not know the truth about “chem trails” but it isn’t a natural occurrence" Correct, the misidentified contrails that are the origin of this nonsense are not a natural occurrence since they are created by aircraft exhaust. The atmospheric science governing their growth however is completely natural. "they have admitted to spraying heavy metals in the air such as aluminum to try to reflect the sun’s rays away to slow global warming." Firstly, aluminium is not a 'heavy metal'. Secondly, you are changing the subject to geoengineering of which one branch, Solar Radiation Management, is (with the exception of ground based albedo modification and some isolated experiments into marine cloud brightening), entirely hypothetical. The strategy that you are loosely referring to is called 'Stratospheric Aerosol Injection' and would aim to recreate the cooling effects of volcanic aerosols. For this reason, it would be conducted at twice the altitude of the contrails that you are observing and would not be visible to a ground based observer or result in a trail. Aluminium Oxide was originally suggested as a possibility over a decade ago, but as yet, there is no agreement upon which material would best achieve this aim. An experiment called SCoPeX that would involve a steerable balloon released 20km into the stratosphere would release a few kilos of water and subsequently calcium carbonate to yield data on perturbation and reflectivity. This has consistently been denied ethical approval and SAI has yet to progress beyond research proposal and mathematical modelling. In fact it will never become a reality, not simply due to opposition and logistics, but due to the potential impossibility of international governance. "That’s what they say the reason is anyway but facts are facts and now we’re finding heavy metals in our rain water and snow which should be nothing but H2O." You will always find some level of impurity in rainwater - it's called ground based pollution and airborne dust which settles in a drainage basin/watercourse. Chemtrails are nothing more than aircraft contrails.

Utter nonsense. A properly fitted N95 mask will 99% of particles or respiratory droplets. The virus needs to adhere to the latter in order for airborne transmission to take place which places them over the filtration threshold. Masks are not intended to be a solitary measure - effective ventilation and social distancing will reduce ambient virus concentrations and increase the effectiveness of face masks in containing virus transmission. Moreover, high compliance and correct use of masks is important to ensure the effectiveness of universal masking in reducing the reproduction number for COVID-19.

Appreciating that to effectively 'dig' into something does not involve a squandered evening consuming junk You Tube videos, cherry picked click bait confirmation bias, quote mining, false equivalence and circular self-referencing pseudoscientific conspiracy websites, do feel free to share - how precisely did you 'dig into it'?
1
@SuperZwezda Said the conspiracy believer. Try known science instead - which is not about belief. You have yet to answer my question. And how precisely do you 'dig into it'?
1
@SuperZwezda You are the one that claimed you found "a lot of truth in it" - so perhaps you should say where? Precisely why I said *known science*. Moreover, the role of science, unlike conspiracy theory, is to falsify itself. Science is not a question of "belief", rather verifiable evidence which is reproducible and tested.

Of course we should question our governments - no one is suggesting otherwise, least of all this video. Patriotism, as far as I am concerned, involves distrusting the government. Keep them in check. They are our employees...they are to represent us, yet they are frequently self-serving and do conspire without the people's knowledge. But that distrust is pointless if we're fooled into thinking that our governments are always up to something and we are unable to discern when it is, and when it isn't - or detracts from genuine corruption or duplicity. Simply because a government has deceived it does not naturally follow that chemtrails (or any random conspiracy theory of one's arbitrary choice or devising) must be true. A syllogistic fallacy. It is an unfortunate fact that a minority of conspiracies do in fact exist and some folks seem to treat them as justification rather than exceptions that prove the rule.

I guarantee you that it doesn't fall from the sky though.

And they're spouting complete uninformed nonsense. Persistent spreading contrails have been observed, documented, recorded, photographed, filmed, measured and studied since the early advent of high altitude powered aviation and in excess of 80 years. (Incidentally, note, it's you're the contraction, as opposed to your the determiner). You're welcome!

They were. The persistent spreading contrails that you are witnessing have been observed, documented, recorded, photographed, filmed, measured and studied since the early advent of high altitude powered aviation and in excess of 80 years.

I think you are referring to SAI, which is a hypothetical proposal.

"The arguments made about chem trails lacks the information about airline jets using aluminum in the fuel for higher combustion rate, which also puts aluminum particles in the atmosphere, and we breath them in." It doesn't though. There were some high grade military fuels which experimented in propulsion enhancements, but they were rarely used. They certainly don't introduce anything other than trace by products that are any different to conventional jet fuel used by the commercial aviation sector.

@sean637 Cloud seeding. What about it?
1
@deadpyrat2243 Actually you don't, given that it's complete nonsense. Appreciating that "research" does not involve self-proclaimed overnight armchair 'expertise' following a squandered evening consuming junk You Tube videos, cherry picked click bait confirmation bias, quote mining, false equivalence and circular self-referencing pseudoscientific conspiracy websites, do feel free to share - how precisely do you think he did his?
1
@deadpyrat2243 Unfortunately your comment is shadow banned which is an irritating and unsophisticated algorithm modification that indiscriminately blocks posts. I will summarise here: "have you ever heard of operation popeye for starters?" Yes, why are you changing the subject to cloud seeding? "Vietnam the us government used cloud seeding to prolong the monsoon season!" The intention being to swamp and drown out the Ho Chi Minh trail. There is no evidence that it prolonged or intensified what were at that time particularly heavy monsoon rains. In fact, despite the existence of state sponsored schemes (for example China and UAE) and private enterprise that specialises in cloud seeding services, it is not widely practiced, the results are highly erratic and even the efficacy questioned by many. "_Furthermore the us government has released numerous documents on the continuing use of cloud seeding."_ Cloud seeding has been practised since the 1950s. So what? This has absolutely nothing to do with the chemtrail conspiracy theory which is based upon the misidentification of aircraft contrails. "Even Bill Gates has openly discussed and admitted to funding the use of aircraft to "increase the reflectivity of the earth's atmosphere!" Now you are shifting the goalposts yet again. You are referring to a hypothetical branch of geoengineering called Stratospheric Aerosol Injection. This has never been secretive, nor has Bill Gates ever hidden his support for research into it. How precisely do you 'admit' to something that isn't denied? SAI would aim to replicate the cooling effects of volcanic aerosols and would therefore likely involve the deployment of sulphates at 20km in altitude (although the materials have yet to be determined). It is highly unlikely that SAI will ever become a reality - not simply due to the environmental unknowns or the logistics of lofting materials to such an altitude, but the virtual impossibility of international governance. "There's also numerous patents for weather modification devices owned by the United States government. A simple searching on an open unbiased search engine will provide you with more than enough information on all this!" A patent is not proof of the existence of something - merely the submission of an idea. Most chemtrail believers that present these as supposed evidence of this hoax don't understand the technical details. Welsbach seeding for example which is frequently cited is an impossibility, the science is flawed and those that parrot this haven't even noticed that the patent was unadopted. Furthermore, weather modification is the general technical term for cloud seeding. Aerial cloud seeding aims to introduce additional nuclei into existing cumulus and stratiform cloud masses which is why it is usually conducted at low altitudes between 2,000 - 6,5000ft. It typically involves the burning of rack mounted silver iodide flares retrofitted to light aircraft. Each run will typically burn around 150 grams of agl. It does not leave a trail and it does not take place at the altitude of the contrails that chemtrail believers are misidentifying. "I don't believe anything without taking the time to investigate it myself! Especially when it comes to conspiracies. And more importantly I don't ever listen to mainstream media or news. Anyone who is willing to be a corporate sellout for a nice paycheck isn't the kind of person I want news from. They can and are bought and paid for!" Known science is supported by physical laws and mathematical axioms, thereby having a voice of its own. What does any of this have to do with the false claim in the OP concerning the inhalation of aluminium due to its supposed use as a performance enhancer in jet fuel?

You are conflating aerodynamic contrails with exhaust contrails that are formed in the regions that aircraft cruise (the stratosphere and tropopause) and the origin of the chemtrail hoax.

Well the chemtrail bullshit has been around since a shock jock invented it in the mid 1990s so don't hold your breath.

"Proof...check out the UK Military Bioweapons Base called PORTONDOWN and their history especially when they created Chemical poisoning to use on enemies by spraying from Aircraft. They tested this chemical spraying over a UK village to which caused health problems on the villagers back in the 1940's." The chemtrail conspiracy theory is based upon the misidentification of aircraft contrails. This has nothing to do with the latter and what you have written is completely incorrect. "There is a huge difference between Contrails and Chemtrails." Finally - someone that can actually state their methodology to allow differentiation between their alleged 'chemtrails' and persistent spreading contrails. Just think, you can be the first. "There is even a video on the internet that shows the inside of a passenger plane refitted with seats removed to hold chemical canisters that will release the sprays into the air." Sigh. You mean dishonestly appropriated images and footage to dupe gullible chemtrail believers of the interior of test aircraft containing ballast barrels designed to transfer weight and shift the centre of gravity during flight testing? "Private companies are hired now to do this macabre job." You now appear to have changed the subject to cloud seeding. "Truth will out always!!" Indeed it will. It's a great shame that you don't have the critical faculty to challenge and independently verify this dumb conspiracy theory that you consume and regurgitate.

Corona virus is a zoonotic disease which has many strains. SARS-CoV-2 was simply one that made the leap. It has happened throughout time immemorial and will happen again. It's called nature. The world is a chaotic place. Not everything has to be a conspiracy. Of course the elderly were vulnerable to a respiratory disease. SARS-CoV-2 claimed and estimated six and a half million lives worldwide. The world's population has just exceeded 8 billion.

Because they haven't - or not in the context that conspiracy theorists frame it.

@samiruegas13 No they don't - as I said not in the conspiratorial sense. If 'they' talk about it and share it with the people of the world, it can hardly be a conspiracy now can it? Post pandemic, the WEF invited key stakeholders, industry and leaders to reimagine a more equitable and sustainable future. The political, economic and social disruption wreaked by SARS-CoV-2 transformed the traditional context for decision-making. The inconsistencies, inadequacies shortcomings and contradictions of multiple systems –from health and financial to energy and education – were exposed by the pandemic. Against this backdrop, this was a watershed presenting a global context of concern for lives, livelihoods and the planet itself. Leaders find themselves at a historic crossroads, a unique window of opportunity to shape and engineer the recovery process and change the world for the better. You can read about all of this and as idealistic and fanciful as it may sound as we revert back to our old ways - there is nothing remotely conspiratorial about it Samantha.
1
@samiruegas13 When I read your original comment it is quite clear what context you meant it in - hence my reply to you. Your question was this: "How is the New World order still consider A conspiracy theory When the world leaders have talked about it many times?" This video is referring to those who do regard such rhetoric as conspiratorial and sinister and quote mine organisations such as the WEF and UN to perpetuate their beliefs. If you don't hold that view, then very simply it doesn't apply to you.

Correct. As explained, they are conspiracy theories - and particularly baseless ones.
1
@Ozama1221 "conspiracy, conspiracy theory, same shitdumbAss" Incorrect - one is an actual covert plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful, the other is supposition and conjecture surrounding the possibility of the latter. "they are actually true most of them" Then you'll have no trouble naming just one.

🤦‍♂ "Project Cirrus: October 13, 1947, when good ol' US Gov't researchers seeded a hurricane with 80 kilos of dry ice attempting to disrupt its internal structure and weaken it, but instead it smashed into Georgia causing $2M in damage." Yes, a cloud seeding/hurricane mitigation initiative that didn't work. It's trajectory had nothing to do with Project Cirrus and had turned westward before the experiment was conducted. Today, the attempt to modify one with only 80 kilograms of dry ice appear as laughable as the notion that it could have altered its path. The heat energy a hurricane releases each day can be compared to the energy released by 400 20-megaton hydrogen bombs. "Project LUCY is their high power radio frequency transmitters [H@@RP] that detect and compress atmospheric methane into diamond dust to create artificial 'noctilucent' clouds to reflect sunlight back into space to cool the arctic; yay!" Project Lucy is a proposal (first conceived in 2005) which aims to decompose arctic methane in the atmosphere using beamed radio frequency transmissions. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Programme and remains purely hypothetical. "So now we have fake snow and acid rain, which will probably cause the next Ice Age considering their luck with the crap they've already dropped into the atmosphere." What on earth are you talking about? "The US Gov't filed a patent for influencing weather in 1974" Patent number please? - I'll explain it to you. " it's called 'geoengineering', and they've been lying about it for decades" Geoengineering is a very broad term. Firstly understand that it consists of two main divisions - 1/ GGR (Greenhouse Gas Removal) or negative emissions technology as it is sometimes termed and 2/ Solar Radiation Management. Some branches of GGR are underway - for example biochar, aforestation and carbon sequestering. Ocean Fertilisation is a proposal - and one that has some concerns due to possible unknown feedback loops. SRM meanwhile, with the exception of ground based albedo modification and some isolated experiments into marine cloud brightening, is entirely hypothetical. Geoengineering isn't in the slightest bit secretive and no one has lied about it. (There it is again, the mysterious 'they'). Proponents of this research and these technologies go to every effort to publicise their work in order to attract funding and support. "because sheesh... even little kids know clouds don't have straight lines. But... conspiracy, right?" Absolutely false. Straight edges of stratus and altostratus clouds are in fact fairly common and usually indicate a very strong demarcation between air masses, especially at the rear of a receding cold front with very dry air plunging down from the north behind the cold front. These kinds of edges can also be seen at the front of an advancing squall line in the summer. Straight edges within stratus clouds may be an indication of wave motion, which occurs at all levels of the atmosphere and is most easily detected when clouds are present. Wave motion of striking consistency, width, and duration produces undulating patterns that are beautiful and extensive. Another physical cause of such edges could be a very long wavelength wave that lifts an expanse of air, resulting in a cloud with a sharp edge in opposite directions; this is more likely for altostratus than for stratus. Morning Glory clouds have been observed since antiquity and the air is saturated enough so that the rising air in the front produces a surface inversion and a cloud, which forms the leading edge of the cylinder, and evaporates in the back producing parallel tubular formations. What does any of this have to do with a dumb conspiracy theory predicated upon the misidentification of aircraft contrails?
