Revision as of 19:39, 13 January 2015
OK, before you remove this, and dismiss it as Conspiracy Bullshit, please listen up.
I'm not a Conspiracy Theorist. And no I'm not pulling the "I follow facts not theories" Bullshit. I actually don't believe any Conspiracies without evidence, and the evidence for most of them is laughably absent. I have yet to find evidence for the ones I saw.
Now, onto the reason I posted this: yes, I know its YouTube. And I know it has the Illuminati in the title, but that's not what its about. It about something called the Cult of Saturn. The Illuminati is must a word Religious nutters throw around for every society.
The Cult of Saturn is a Society that worships er... Saturn, or Satan if you're conspiracy Theorist. If you watch the video, you'll notice something: Symbolism in everything. And its stupid.
The video seems to give some story about why the x and cube are satanic symbols, and proceeds to show a LOT of symbolism. Last night I was tired as fuck, so I worried about it, but I'm well rested now, and found its stupid.
Basically we play God in Minecraft. The cubes are what makes the worlds, and that's a satanic symbol. Portal 2, the companion cube, Rubik's Cube, Sega Saturn, Xbox, etc.
As you can see, its pretty dumb, however, a surprisingly large number of people believe this! Yet I see no skeptic or debunking place mention it! No articles on /r/Conspiratard, NP article here, no quotes on Fatdt.com, etc. Why? Is it that recent?
Believe me, this cult has a LOT of Conspiracy lord, and its alleged symbols do too.
