Hugo Chavez: US weapon test caused Haiti earthquake

It’s a sure thing, when some big disaster occurs you will find a conspiracy theory spewing con man blaming the USA for it. No matter how feeble their little theory may be it’s put out there and the people who hype it feel they deserve to be respected and their options considered. I say opinions are like ass holes, everyone has one, and no one says I can’t point at yours and laugh.

Lets face it, this conspiratorial thinking is a mental weakness, most of us have developed filters that they use to vet the over abundance of information we receive each day. And because we are exposed to so much info what we throw away is far more important than what we keep. Keep the valid and shit can the bologna. The conspiracy theorist mind set is to take it all in, garbage and all.

Conspiracy theories are a great form of intellectual laziness. Why learn all about that complex shit involving plate tectonics and how it causes earthquakes, or try and wrap your mind around what High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) exactly is. Why do that when you can visit a conspiracy site or worst view a YouTube video and have an intriguing plot sold to you in simple child like terms complete with ominous music, “There are coming to get you!”. Everyone like a spooky story.

In the conspiracy loon world one conspiracy theory is as good as the next and people who embrace one seem to be prone to believe them all. Tell me this, How is it they can think the US has the power to induce earthquakes thousand of miles away but think we can’t land a man on the Moon? It was no surprise the idea Haiti earthquake was a US secret operation was picked up by a fair number of 9/11 truthers.
