Most Popular Conspiracy Theory in Illinois
This conspiracy theory is one that has been seen in a few movies and TV shows, such as The X Files and Escape From New York. However, it's one that I don't know a whole lot about. The most popular conspiracy theory in Illinois is Black Helicopters. USDirect.com says:
Though many dismiss this theory as military or government training exercises, a surprising number of people since the 1970s have reported sightings of unmarked black helicopters in association with UFO sightings, crop circles, men in black, and alien abductions. Others believe the helicopters point to a possible military takeover of the United States. Not so coincidentally, black helicopters have also been linked with the New World Order, with many theorists conjecturing that the aircraft are used to spy on citizens across the world in order to gather information on dissenters of the Order. Or maybe it’s a combination of all of these theories?
The Most Popular Conspiracy Theory in Indiana and Kentucky
Indiana and Kentucky both share the same most popular conspiracy theory...The New World Order. Now, as a wrestling fan, when I hear New World Order, I think about this:
However, in the world of conspiracy theories, the New World Order is one of the more popular and intriguing topics. According to USDirect.com:
By far one of the most notorious, complicated, and multifaceted theories of our day, proponents of the most-searched conspiracy believe that a militaristic, totalitarian government called the New World Order hovers just beyond the edge of the world’s notice, waiting patiently to seize international control. This theory often links the New World Order with Freemasons, Illuminati, the United Nations, the Bible’s Book of Revelations, and…the Denver Airport as a possible HQ? Any way you spin it (and there are lots of ways to spin it), let’s hope that this less-than-appealing Big Brother continues to stay away for the foreseeable future.
