Lots of people seem to think it's just an artificial filter... Quoting: Astromut 'Space may be the final frontier but it's made in a hollywood basement'. |

Where's your evidence that I faked this? I sure hope you didn't come on my thread to mouth off about my video without evidence... |

Quoting: Saturdays Child Not really, last new bit of Nibiru content I saw was actually very old recycled Nibiru content with Paul Begley trying to refresh the prediction date of an old Nibiru hoax from years back. It seems like that's a dead conspiracy at this point, rather than accept that astronomers were right when they said it was a hoax, some of its proponents have instead concluded that all of astronomy is a hoax instead. Some of them have gone on to become flat earther proponents, Eddie Bravo is one of the more well known examples of that (hence he named his martial arts method "10th planet Jiu Jitsu" and a variant called "planet X Jiu Jitsu"). He alludes to this in interviews where he claims to have been big into astronomy, but his real interest was always conspiracy theories, not astronomy. Last Edited by Astromut on 08/30/2022 05:25 PM |
