One of the best-known conspiracy theories -- that the CIA was involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963 -- was believed by 54 percent of respondents, while 16 percent thought America had faked its moon landings.

These are both real. The JFK thing 100% deep state killed him. The moon landing was faked, I'm sorry but a bunch of inexperienced astronauts did not launch a rocket that broke into two pieces, landed a craft, hoped around with a golf club, launched said craft back into space from the moon, rejoined with main craft and then landed safely. I believe we did go, but much later, probably in the 80's.

A cause for concern to France's current centrist government, the most widely-held theory was that the health ministry was conspiring with pharmaceutical companies to conceal the danger of vaccines. A total of 55 percent of respondents agreed with this -- at a time when the government has raised the number of obligatory vaccines to 11 from three for all newborns to combat a resurgence in some illnesses.

Again, true. I'm fine with some vaccines, just not at such a young age. But once you start pumping tons and tons of vaccines on fucking newborns, that is cause for alarm at the minimum, and it's justifiable to bring up the possibility that elites are dumbing us down.

jihadist groups Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State were manipulated by Western secret services

WTF, these media fucks know damn well this was and still is true today. Or did they forget what fucking country helped the Mujahideen, which would later turn into Al-Qaeda?

It said there was a clear correlation between people who voted for so-called populist political candidates, such as French far-right leader Marine Le Pen, and belief in conspiracy theories.

And there's the reassurance the intellectuals love to cling to. How, how do these supposedly smart people not question a damn thing in their life? I question everything, I've always been like that, it's just how mind works.
