The scary part is that these are only the incidents that we know about; the question needs to be asked - "what don't we know about?"
Forget what we don’t know about, what about all the things we DO know about and talk about, repeatedly, only for the government to encourage ridiculing and censoring anybody who brings it up? That’s the real problem.
@Domenick Giambattista no the real problem is peoples indifference. They jump on the dumbest conspiracies but real everyday stuff, they deny because its not farfetched enough or they dont think it affects them but it does.
Right cuz what are the things they're currently hiding or shit they haven't told us, I'm sure they know about c⁰v!d n!neteen than they say, also it's been said the government hides alot, even NASA.
You mean like viruses aren't real and the earth is flat? We tried telling you, but you called us crazy. The information is out there for those who truly want truth.
@@zachariahsmith9130 Name a dumb conspiracy theory? I will wait...
Mojo needs to do more countdowns like these, this was very informative and left me thinking about a lot of things 🤔
This is the energy every human being needs. Stay vigilant.
Please make Joe, make more videos hold a mirror up to America so we can see the reflection of the upper class in the ruling elite. They talk about Hollywood early, Hollywood doesn't make laws
Always dangersous 🙄
And remember kids, the next time someone tells you “The government wouldn’t do that” …
Oh yes they would. - Wendigoon
3:20 Damn, you know you're doing something sketchy when Nixon tells you to cut it out 😆
It's ridiculous that many think the government and these big corporations have suddenly stopped doing unethical experiments on the populace. They're still very much asleep.
As if the government and corporations found Jesus in the 21st century, lol
Then prove it
But seriously how many times did Bill have to apologize for the government doing human experiments? 🥴
What do you mean? What all did he have to apologize for?
But don't worry, the government and those multi-national corporations would never dream of doing anything unethical these days...🤣
😂
This. No need to fear y'all. It's all in the past. 😉
No never they wouldnt lie to us thats crazy think they call it mental illness not common sense.

But let's make it worse by acting like every conspiracy is true. So smart.
Imagine how far ahead we would be and all the cures we would have if people were just honest.
Why would they fully cure a disease for pennies when they can make billions treating individual symptoms
Sadly when it comes to money, people are not honest
Surprised they didn’t mention that #19, Acoustic Kitty, ended with the scientists putting the cat outside to see if their device worked, where it was swiftly run over by a car 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
I choose to believe the cat ran in the street to be killed on purpose in mercy. Poor thing must have been in agony
@malpal1213 The main scientist said they gave it surgery, and it went home with one of the people who worked in the lab as a family pet.
@@malpal1213 Why would it be in agony? It was fine. It just had a listening device implanted. Almost everyone's dog or cat is microchipped with a tracker and record. They're not in pain at all.
Forgot to mention that tiny detail lol
@@myyoutube7144 That's not nearly the same thing. A microchip is hardly bigger than a grain of rice, and it's just a little magnetic sensor that pulls up numbers with a scanner, and your info is stored in a database. Idk how big or painful the items were, but they implanted a good bit more than a microchip.
Seriously you can't tell me anyone thought lucky charms was a well balanced meal
😂
The fact that Bayer is still a viable and profitable company is wild.
Tobacco companies are *still* trying to weasel out of admitting the dangers of smoking. The only difference is they are doing it in other countries.
It boils down to are lobbying system. Those people paying to put politicians on Capitol Hill get to decide what bills are pushed through and what bills are put on hold and until money is taken out of politics we're not going to have a fair free society of the people by the people for the people, it's going to be for the corporation and its best interest
@@caseyrayharris.esquire489 It boils down to Satanists running the world.
Conspiracy theories are less strange than facts these days
people hate on watchmojo but a video like this is actually somewhat important i think everyone should know the facts in this video
I’m guilty of it too so I’m not calling you out but you seam smart so…it’s one thing to know the facts but why do we still move on like that’s not something we need to call out and stand up for the right things? Just a thought
I've listened to recordings of old live radio shows from the 30's and 40's, commercials and all. The first time I heard " Four out of five doctors recommend smoking Camel over any other cigarette", I thought it was a parody. Nope. Actual ad campaign.
Yes and menthol is good for asthma
Many advertisers lied without being punished.
I remember seeing an ad in a magazine from the 70's for Kools, a brand of menthol cigarettes, that suggested they cooled the lungs and there was a medical benefit, smh
"Safe and effective". We're screwed. It's obvious the powers that be want us dead.
Once it’s true it becomes less “scientific conspiracy” and more “scientific facts”
Working for the CIA in the 50s/60s was one hell of a ride!
They got to crazy stuff, evil science for sure but damn what a time it must’ve been
Concerning the phone company information, I worked on Sprint's billing system in the 90's and we definitely saw that in the code. Not only that we would look for specific prefixes and when we encountered them we would wipe all that info from the call, since they were CIA or other classified users.

The problem with "climate change" argument is due to the fact the ones that scream about it always says we only have 5 years or we only havve 8 years. When that 5 to 8 years come up they cry we only have 5 more years
you're not correctly understanding what they're saying. the closest anyone's come to a claim like that was in 2018 when AOC echoed a scientific report stating that, _if we did nothing,_ we were *12* years from _the point of no return_ - the point at which climate change cannot be undone no matter what. the ocean in particular has already reached the point of no return, in 2014 - it is now impossible to bring ocean temperatures back down to pre-industrial levels. atmospheric change, on the other hand, still has wiggle room - if we changed absolutely nothing about our emissions, we would hit that point of no return by 2030. if we act aggressively to limit emissions and pull carbon out of the atmosphere, we could delay that to 2042. but even if we did nothing and we hit that point of no return in 2030, all life on earth is not going to abruptly come to an end on 1/1/2030. it's just going to reach a point where we can't reverse it, and we're going to have to live with the devastating effects of a significantly warmer planet (rising seas, widespread droughts/famines/floods, increasingly severe storms, mass migration in search of livable, arable land). so you see it's not a hard line in the sand where "on this date at this time, the world will end." climate change has already happened, and the question now is how bad are we going to let it get and how quickly will it get to a point that it can't be fixed?
@@dietotaku No I think I remember a doomsday clock that said that the world would end in around 2020 I think. Yes, environmentalists like Al Gore always like to predict that the world would end in five years and then those five years will come and we're all fine in the end
@@dietotaku No. Climate change is a hoax. I guarantee that you are literally unable to make the points made by PhD climatologist climate change "denialist" scientists. Absolutely guarantee you cannot do it. Why? Because you have never listened to what they had to say. At least listen to all sides of the argument before choosing a side.
What a weird timeline we live in
how
Wouldn’t change it for anything though. Everything is almost instant nowadays and that’s great. The only thing that sucks is that in the age of information anti intellectualism is growing in high numbers, which is scary.
@@zombiediet how do you breed new intellectuals when intellectuality itself is so demonized by the half the country? They call learning “indoctrination” and critical thinking “woke”
Is there any hope for these people who have been programmed by a 24 hr news cycle?
@@zombiediet death is instant too. Even the apocalypse. Push of a button. Just a click away.
@@UniqueornBacon sure is. Doesn’t change all the amazing things we have today.
Remember when "Crazy people" stated that COVID came from a lab leak and now those crazy people may actually not be crazy at all?

The oil companies. They’re destroying the biosphere of our planet. Every living creature is affected.
Or at least the ones that haven’t gone extinct yet.
#18... the fact that our own government uses us as guinea pigs on weapons that they would in turn use to attack other countries with scares me. I've already had thoughts that they're manipulating us so they can sell us as mindless consuming robots. The fact that they put such a hindrance to suicide and now they're even trying to make abortions illegal, yet it's a fact that dysfunctional families have dysfunctional children who in turn cost more and themselves struggle more. I don't see the department of human and Family Services talking about laying people off and building smaller buildings so they anticipate the need for them to increase.
This experiment for some reason made me think of Donald Trump and the wall. everyone acts like America is the best place to come and live your dream and I've always felt it's like other countries selling their citizens to America to be more brainwashed.
it doesn't take an entire system to be corrupt it just takes a few people to be corrupt and to make themselves powerful and to create the system.
Phase 1: deny its existence.
Phase 2: acknowledge it, but downplay our impact.
Phase 3: acknowledge our impact, but say there is nothing we can do about it.
South Park really nailed how Gas/Electrical companies handled climate change in Streaming Wars
If I could, I'd have included the time they used toxic powders in the NY subway system as an experiment.
Just think about those people who were discriminated and humiliated by the government because of telling the truth...only to receive nothing more than an unsincere apology from the officials who were not even involved in the incident.
I remember when I first learned about cloud seeding years ago. I couldn't believe it wasn't common knowledge and major headlines. (Of course now I'm wiser and know that some of the most shocking things don't make headlines.) I like how the video said there's been an agreement not to control weather. LOL!
only benefit is for hurricanes etc. apparently katrina wouldnt have been so bad or even hit the area it did wouldve been predicted to move north east and be 1-2 categories lower.
@@Benasouki Show cloud seeding information to normies and they still call us conspiracy theorists. Normies suck so freaking hard!
The fact this is a 20 list I think shows how many conspiracies are just unprovable fact
Think again. Just because there are only 20 here doesn’t mean there aren’t much more. Just do a search and you will find much more. They are much longer. That is why only 20 here.
WatchMojo can yall start putting timestamps please? Thanks
u should add timestamps atleast
The lab leak and everything associated with the coof.
It all boils down to money and power. Whenever one or both of them is threatened the people in control will do everything to protect it. Always. No matter the cost.
that atomic kitten insert has to be one of the most random edits i have ever seen lmao so many cat references that could have been made and you chose atomic kitten hahah
You didn't mention black neighborhoods being flooded with crack during the Iran-Contra Affair
MK-Ultra was actually the inspiration for Stranger Things along with the Montauk Project. The Montauk Project is rumored to still be continuing underground.
Makes me feel bad, almost pity, for the hippies that bought into MK-Ultra's pitch.
When is the UK version of this coming out, since these linked to US government departments? Our government is just a scummy!
All governments are scummy.
When it comes to weather control, I’m surprised Mojo didn’t mention project HAARP. A facility that can actually manipulate the weather.
They can only do so many at a time or t would be too long and most would not watch. They have more.
Mojo is essentially the mainstream media of CZcams. Why would they mention HAARP? It would be like mentioning Dr. Kary Mullis regarding C-19 PCR testing.

Turns out, that one is true as well
Alex Jones is literally Bill Hicks. There's no video of AJ prior to Bill's death. Dental photos are identical.
#10, growing up i had a feeling it was the case and now i was right and so was Adam Ruins Everything. the point of the show wasn't to be right or convince, its to show facts and they even acknowledged that their info can be wrong at times which is why the encourage people to do their own research.
Adam conover's just a propaganda tool
Adam Ruins Everything's resources was how I learned about Kellogg's Adventist association and Big Sugar's faulty research.
Hey WatchMojo , those black men didn't HAVE latent syphilis it was basically single digit number who showed they MIGHT have it because the test wernt as accurate for residual detection but on the contrary knowingly INFECTED them with several strains and also one thought to have then caused blindness before the inevitably painful and miserable death. I couldn't imagine the months and months of torture and the fact that outside the community you'd look like a fool trying to blame the "gubment" , the wives the kids ..everytime anyone even got the urge to pee. And thinking about it I realize it must've destroyed intimate relations and just trust for that matter. If anyone deserves a fat check from Uncle Samaritan it's those descendents
CIA wanted to train cats for espionage.
CATS!
What a jellicle idea!
Now im starting to understand on why some people think climate change isn't real
ANYONE WHO DOSNT BELIVE IN CLIMATE CHANGE ARE BLIND TO FACTS AND PROBLEY SHOULDNT HAVE CHILDREN
One conspiracy is that it is real but has nothing to do with human intervention.
That's just a money spinner used by the governments of the world in an attempt to manipulate and control us all into doing their will.
Climate change is just natural like the last ice age, which ofcourse didnt happen overnight, and can't be blamed on cave men lighting to many bonfires or dinosaurs farting lol
Your thumbnail shows an image of the metallic sphere that washed up on the shore in Japan. But you do not mention it in this video.

I wonder if in the future we will see this list redone and include renewable energy because of the real damage to the planet but is being ignored because governments can use it for taxing and and control.
Highly unlikely. enewable energy is something of a kind of pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, it's literally impossible. Almost any kind of energy requires fuel to be put in, and even when you talk about electric batteries they still have to be produced they still have to receive a charge from somewhere and that charge means a power grid powered by carbon emissions etc etc. So anything that would be genuinely renewable would essentially be a perpetual motion device, which is just a fairy tale. And also if there WERE some sort of renewable, infinite energy source not only with some corporation already be mass producing it but they would be copywriting it, they would be monopolizing it. It would be the most important technological breakthrough in the history of human civilization and whoever got their hands on it first wouldn't just be billionaires they would be the first trillionaires, they would essentially become a nation onto themselves, become a superpower onto themselves, so the fact that nobody has ever developed renewable energy (real renewable energy, not some kind of "green" pipe dream, but you know like perpetual motion or something) you can just say be default because of that it's just not possible. And anyway, physics says it's not possible. So no it doesn't exist, "green" energy is a good idea but so are leprechauns... And actually they might be more logical, since the idea of an extremely long lived race of midgets living in Ireland that used to mine gold would kind of work, from a biological standpoint.
Renewable energy isn’t killing the planet, capitalists are. As long as it’s profitable to kill the planet, they will keep doing it. Even if 99% decided not to, they would be outcompeted by the 1% that does.
Finding renewable energy that isn’t dependent on foreign slave labour to maximize profits is how we save the fckin planet.
recycling was a scam by oil companies to put the burden on the consumer rather than the producer. Holding oil companies accountable for their 23% cumulative global carbon footprint is how we save ourselves from extinction.
Let’s focus on the damage non renewable energy has and will do before we start deflecting
That then makes it no different. Your ignoring the problem till it's too late.
Actually the Bin Laden part did work. They were able to take DNA samples of the people in his suspected hideout and were able to determine that his relatives were living in the mansion where he was suspected of hiding.
The problem is because they did this now all those people in that area Who could really use foreign medical help due to them living in a area best described as "shit" with a government also best described as " completely broken" now are afraid of all health workers taking their DNA. During the height of COVID people were beaten to death because of it, because of course that's what happens in those corners of the world...
Still fucked up.
Yeah, and also he used to work as a cia for the U.S government for many years.
They found him becuase someone slipped up and made a phone call that was tapped.
Either way it just gave the middle-east another reason not to trust the United States and gave Al-Qaeda and other anti American groups and to get new recruits
Thank God for Ed Snowden and Julian Assainge
The Tuskegee experiment effects still affecting STI rates.
And government trust by citizens, especially black, obviously. Shameful.
Covid came from a lab.
"On a Catwoman scale of Eartha Kitt to Zoe Kravitz, it's safe to say that this experiment was a Halle Berry-level..." CAT-ASTROPHE! Oh c'mon, the joke was THERE!
Watching this list , I’m not surprised of the cancer rates now 💀
They found cancer in dinosaur bones, it has been around longer than us...
4:33 Kellogg is also largly to blame for American men being circumised at birth.
Kellogg was also obsessed with poop. And so was Post. Weird shit yo (no pun attended).
Bayer should have apologized for their role in manufacturing tainted hemophilia drugs and infecting so many innocent people with HIV. They should compensate the families of their victims.
And the winner for the award of "Sketchiest MoFo's"... the CIA!
"so maybe, the lesson learned here is, we shouldn't meddle with forces we don't understand"
Yeah you think?! Honestly how stupid can the higher ups be if they couldn't see this ending badly at all? Really kills me how they fail to grasp that, in the very near future, all those programs you see about humans being the cause of their own extinction is a very likely possibility!
This video also included top 20 advertisements
You had the perfect spot for Jim's joke on Dwight, sending him a gaydar
I love that they needed to use clips from Drunk History
Heart attack and cardiac arrest is two different things.
The CIA should've used dogs. they're much more trainable lmao
Cases such as the sugar. If a company knows of a substances dangers, conceals the data, and markets it as safe all in the name of profit, should be held criminally liable for deaths and inuries caused by the product. In other words, Top execs of Big Tabacco, Big Sugar, Big Oil, and other industries would be charged with mass-murder. That would motivate them to be transparent about their R&D
Certainly didn’t expect to see Atomic Kitten in this video…
i've never been so disappointed in humanity as when i learned that people will literally DIE to get shitfaced. come on, y'all, is sobriety really THAT BAD?
Ah yes blame the people who drank blindness inducing alcohol, who were unaware of that fact, and not the people who were actively trying to harm those same people. You’re right after reading your comment I’ve lost faith in humanity.
@@ArmyGuyClaude well said
Yes it is
Fact really is stranger than fiction
Great video one cavoite. For #8 the poisonings alcohol being sold as industrial alcohol. When you distill alcohol there is a thing called an azeotrope aka you can not fully distill all the alcohol from the water its in. So you include other chemicals to raise the azeotrope such as benzene. This practice is still in use to make lab grade ethanol such as 99% alcohol by volume. Not saying that the other chemicals listed are not also terrible to drink. My point is benzene probably shouldn't be on the list unless of course the added like quite a bit to it.
Okay, real talk: Who here heard "MK-Ultra" and immediately thought "Mortal Kombat"?
You're funny 😂
I thought about outlast
Who else here was majorly relieved that the CIA's use of cats was not as suicide bombers?
Well, they did surgery on the cats the put listeting devices inside them, word around is that they even used a wire wrapped around the bones of the tail as antena. I myself would prefer they blew the cats up, less suffering.
Number 11 reminds me of that 2003 movie The Core.
You would expect some of these things to be done by some authoritarian government,not the US one...
authoritarian governments don't have to conspire to do shady shit, they just DO IT, no theories necessary.

a few bad apples is no reason to throw out the whole bunch. isn't that what y'all are always telling us about cops that murder civilians?
People are the government. The government isn't a single entity. It's a giant bureaucratic institution.
