I’m thinking of starting a conspiracy theory - who’s in?

Operation Cat 10.

A secret plan to get enough Californians to move to Texas to turn it blue and end GOP chances of winning the presidency for the foreseeable future.

Tech giants of Silicon Valley are behind it.

The origin of the name is CA-TX or Cat X.

We could spent some time embellishing it, find some (real) quotes that could be reinterpreted to seem like they contain cryptic hints. Then we could start planting seeds here and there over time, slowly revealing details.

Do you think we could get it to take off?

But...shouldn’t we pick a theory that isn’t true?

He'll be satisfied when a few more of us leave.

@jon-nyc I have wondered how easy it would be to do this and have it become a “truth” - or to take some random photo and post it on facebook with a “this is the moment before” some heartwarming or terrible thing happened, and have it go viral. (Because it seems like people share that **** all the time, and never bother to check to see if it’s real).

With desirable candidates like Biden/Harris there is no need.

Here's my bombshell:

The people identified as secretly being right-wingers causing damage at the BLM protests, and those identified as antifa at the Trump protests are actually THE SAME PEOPLE.

This is a clandestine plot by radicalized moderates who are secretly attempting to undermine both left and right in a bid to violently seize power by a group known as THE SILENT MAJORITY!

I can't say too much more.

Isn't that how the spaghetti religion started? Some guy thought he would make a religion really stupid and see if enough people would start to follow it.
