Hot take, the moon landing conspiracy isn't stupid. The reason is because, unlike all the other conspiracies listed, it's the only one where the conspiracy actually would be simpler than what really happened - it would be much easier to fake the moon landing than to actually land on the moon. Plus, given the political motivations of the time, faking the moon landing is something that they really might have tried to do if they thought they could get away with it. I believe it is still deeply unlikely, but what makes it at least interesting to consider is that it asks of you to believe an easier explanation. The other conspiracies all involve things that are way more insane and difficult to believe than the truth which is what makes them stupid as hell.


This is a smart take, but my one counterpoint is that going to the moon seems like it would be easier than hundreds of people keeping that secret under lock and key for 50 years <_<

To my knowledge, no moon landing was staged person claims to have actual inside knowledge
