    One i came up with myself, and have no real proof for other than “well just look at this shit” :

    Gangster rap being promoted as a way to get people to confess to crimes on tape. And to wear your pants in the most trip-hazard way possible for easy capture.

    Snoop Dogg and NWA and the like selling impressionable young black people stuck in ghettos that a path to success is to get infront of a microphone, wait for the beat to start, and recite poetry including your name, felonies, and area code.

    conspiracy theories they believe in order to gauge the effectiveness of their hoaxes.

      I never read the book by David Ray Griffin on this subject, but I’m aware of how absurd the Bin Laden tapes were. One day he’s wearing camo and has an AK next to him - then the next day he’s wearing ceremonial gold/yellow robes and he’s so far away from the camera that you can’t tell whether he’s CGI or not. There’s a whole load of crap about “no planes theory” and how it was all CGI, but there’s almost no discussion regarding the Bin Laden tapes being CGI.

      People also forgot about those weird anthrax letters. I watched a stupid Netflix documentary about the anthrax letters and in the end they admitted that nobody actually saw the supposed mastermind put the anthrax into the mail box. He could have been blackmailed or god-knows what, we will never know. Back to my homie OBL:

      https://www.amazon.com/Osama-Bin-Laden-Dead-Alive-ebook/dp/B004OEKA7Q

      “The US political discourse and foreign policy in recent years has been based on the assumption that Osama bin Laden is still alive. George W. Bush promised as president that he would get Osama bin Laden dead or alive and has been widely criticized for failing to do so. The US s present military escalation in Afghanistan is said to be necessary to get Osama bin Laden. The news media regularly announce the appearance of new messages from bin Laden. But what if Osama bin Laden died in December 2001 which is the last time a message to or from him was intercepted? In this book, David Ray Griffin examines the evidence for the claim made by everyone from former CIA agent Robert Baer to Oliver North that bin Laden is surely no longer with us. He analyzes the purported messages from bin Laden and finds that, as many have suspected, they do not provide evidence of bin Laden s existence after 2001. This leads naturally to the question: if Osama bin Laden did indeed die in 2001, how and why have dozens of messages from bin Laden appeared since then? Griffin s meticulous analysis supports above all one simple and urgent conclusion: if Osama bin Laden is dead, the US should not be using its troops and treasure to hunt him down.”

      I actually believe he killed himself, but it is still a conspiracy, because he had tried before and they purposely broke all suicide watch protocols including leaving a ton of linens in his cell (he made multiple nooses), no roommate, and no one checking. They were paid to make sure he had plenty of opportunities to kill himself.

          There’s so many other things you could do without suspending him for two years. Also, knowing him, he would have publicly come out slamming the NBA if he really was suspended for gambling.

                  I think the guy, as terrible as he was in other ways, just really really liked jerky. This one especially seems to clarify they are just talking about actual jerky. I’m open to any files you would like to link that are especially weird. https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet 9/EFTA00700042.pdf

                  Edit:

                  Here’s another one that really seems like they are just talking about food.

                  Here’s a normal shopping list, clarifying that the steaks are for making jerky. Apparently NY strip steak according to an earlier email. Lemongrass and ginger being mentioned makes me think it’s probably a teriyaki jerky.

                  https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet 11/EFTA02318150.pdf

                  More shopping list, with clarifications on where to pick up the items even.
