We've got a bunch of new people now so let's bring back a classic post. What low stakes conspiracy theory do you believe that you cannot prove but feels right to you?

I'll start: I believe that dating apps have made a concerted effort to smear in person meeting people and tie it to being "creepy" through social media so you are forced to meet people online(which was the creepy option just 15 years ago)

I believe there is a benefit to the ruling class that is happening through bigger TVs and bigger couches to accommodate the tvs.

Namely, that we sit further apart from each other now, and it decreases the overall oxytocin levels we used to share cuddling with our loved ones, further atomizing and alienating us so we can be sold more and more useless crap to fill the void.

Here I was thinking that it was that the ruling class sells the TV's and couches

All the renovated theaters have their own personal seats now, too.
