Parts Unknown: Foreign Conspiracy Theories - Guest - 09-07-2021 We talk about conspiracy theories a lot here on Skeptoid; their history, whatever truths may underlie them, the reasons people believe them, and the way they are shaped by popular culture. But with apologies to more than a third of my listeners, these conspiracy theories are nearly always US-centric. As an American, it's easy for me to grasp the cultural context of such stories that originate and propagate domestically, and it would be correspondingly much harder for me to have a very useful perspective on a foreign conspiracy theory that was born among the influences of a very different environment. So, with the proviso that I won't attempt to give the full Skeptoid treatment to each of these, I hereby present a roundup of conspiracy theories from outside the US sphere of influence.
