Atlanta snow is fake? Latest conspiracy theory cites ‘plastic snow’

Atlanta snow is fake? Latest conspiracy theory cites ‘plastic snow’
There are many people beginning to speculate that the snow is fake.

No, not that the snow didn’t happen–but that the white, frosty stuff on the ground is, in fact, not snow.

Several YouTube videos have been posted documenting “proof” that the snow in Atlanta is some sort of synthetic substance; additionally, these conspiracy theorists claim that this fake snow and the devastating affects it has had on the city of Atlanta are all part of a government plot. The conspiracy theorists say that this non-snow is the latest evidence of “chemtrails,” a long-standing conspiracy theory that postulates that the government hides chemicals in airplanes and douses unknowing citizens and locations with said chemicals. Theorists claim that this is all intended to serve as “testing” for when the powers-that-be unleash the full force of several man-made “natural” disasters, in the hopes of instituting martial law amidst the ensuing disarray.


Is Obama's fault that a sizable minority of Americans are not only racists but blithering idiots?

who posit conspiracy theories (all except me of course) are fake people. They don't really exist. They are robots or holograms.

And by the way...

(or if you did, I congratulate you on your skills that I certainly don't possess), and not to sound all nit-picky, but that's not a "Beatles Facepalm". That's a "Pink Floyd Facepalm."

I heard that the reason so little snow made such a mess was because it melted and re-froze as ice? Hard for plastic to do that.

And the Moon landings were a hoax. And folks on Mars made a face which NASA nuked to hide that fact. And vaccinations cause autism.

All rubbish.

Love the crazy sometimes. It's so crazy.
