  There are definitely some funny ones about companies I've worked for that we were plotting world domination. As co-workers once put it, though, "Even if we were that evil, we're not competent and secret enough to pull that one off."

  The Council of the Rick animals.
  
  Seriously though I would say it would be UFOs, I can't think of any incident in particular.

  My favorite are dancers who want to debate whether or not the Apollo moon landings were real.
  
  Wealthy immigrants (born wealthy) who think that the police "look it up on the computer to see if you've donated to the FOP not that year, and how much" before deciding how to treat you. As if that level of corruption actually exists.
  
  I don't understand the whole NWO (new world order) euro-centric, united stations, one world government conspiracy.
  
  And last: UFOs. There are people who think that all of the world's governments are working together in secret to keep the existence of UFOs and ETs secret from the rest of us. How they expect that to actually happen, in secret, since 1947, in perfect agreement, just does not match up with how I see countries getting along today.

  Climate change. Most scientists in the climate area work for our government, yet some people think they're making up data that pisses off the government by alerting them to the dangers of our current policies. This makes no sense to me...if there was a conspiracy the scientists would be the ones playing ostrich.

  Someone told me that the Soviet Union didn't collapse, they just moved to moon bases on the dark side of the moon. They seemed really serious about it.
  
  Oh, and people who believe in zoocryptids like bigfoot sasquatch yeti. But we know those are just juice sightings or maybe bigdicksammy sightings. Ha!

  Another conspiracy theory: that lawyers all have a blood pact not to sue another lawyer.

  ^^^ it's actually a valid position, and I totally mean that, which is why the debates on the moon landings will continue for very long time. Fascinating stuff.

  Al Sharpton really cares more about black people than he does promoting himself and stuffing his pockets full of money.

  Tank Man. Did the tank run him over like the clips show or are the people who swear they saw him get ran over when it aired live correct? Or is it the Mandela Effect? And if the young man was in fact pulled out of the way, why hasn't he ever been identified?

  Climate change is the biggest conspiracy theory. Was the biggest in the 1970's too when instead of global warming the same nitwits were getting the left to wet themselves over the coming ice age. The stupidest statement ever has to be that Scientists are honest because most work for the government lol.

  Actually, the idea that cutting taxes for the wealthiest 5% of citizens and corporations will somehow enhance the lives of middle class and working Americans
  
  Trump's idea of trickle down economics is to give the average American a golden shower.

  The most interesting conspiracy theories are those that don't require a great deal of Vaseline on the lens to make them believable. Take a look at the "deep state" diatribes being circulated right now in American politics.
  
  It's believable because it's hard to deny that there are sections of the government that act without a lot of oversight and according to their own agendas.
  
  But, the level of broad "secret society" shenanigans attributed to the "deep state" is fantastically overblown. Often by those who prefer to see conspiracy even when incompetence is a far more likely driver.

  I like what Ishmael said about how what the 'shadow government' might be less a matter of nefarious elements (left or right) or a globalist conspiracy but might just be ineptness.
  
  Quite often taking the Vaseline off the lens is just a matter of applying Occam's razor.
  
  The late Allen Ginsberg said it well (in the linked Poem): Birdbrain Rules the World!!

  Ultimate bonehead conspiracy theory- Jon Benet Ramsey is alive and well and goes by the name Katy Perry. That's even better than "Paul is dead."

  Conspiracy theory still believed by many: Michael Jordan was forced to resign from basketball for 2 years in the middle of 6-peat rather than face damaging public suspension for gambling.

  Has that actually been debunked?
