moon landing is fake

look I don't wanna be that guy but there are good reasons to believe it was fake. also, it could be honest, I'm just looking at the other possibility. the fact that we could go to the moon when smartphones were not revealed feels strange. Also with all this new technology Elon is literally struggling to get his rocket to last 2 minutes in the air. and at that time, they managed to take it to the moon with that little technology. idk it just doesn't feel right and my question is not why we haven't gone to the moon again cause there will always be reasons such as we don't need to, or pollution etc. still I think at that time green screen was becoming a thing and the race with soviet union made them fake it.

Just sounds like a conspiracy for the sake of it. You lose a lot of credibility by overlooking any other launches or stuff like the ISS
In 1969 we had the technology to send people to the moon, but not the CGI technology we'd need to fake it.
You say 'moon landing is fake', singular. To which one of the six moon landings are you referring?
Wrong. We’ve been to the moon and you’ve just fallen victim to conspiracy theory delusion. What next, you think the Earth is flat??

Does it matter if it were fake?

Why are you demanding people go again? What difference does it make to you if someone (im guessing not you) has been to the moon or not?

The more impressive feat was the USA suppressing the Soviet Union's 'moon landing' in 1970, which itself was also likely faked. But the fact that very few in the USA know that the Soviet Union televised the first moon walk bumy a dog is quite something.

A lot of space exploration happened before smartphones were invented. Do you think all of that was fake as well? Or just Apollo 11?

And how about the six trips to the moon after that. Do you think they were all fake?
Love me a good conspiracy. Watch the WF's video on this topic. It goes into great depths to uncover the truth behind the moon landing, both providing evidence for and against it. No ulterior motive, just straight up solid investigative work.

have you considered that the moon landings are faked bcos the moon never existed in the first place...

I can't keep up with your shapeshifting. Must be some kind of conspiracy but I haven't decided which one yet.

How do you explain the amazingly drawn Mickey Mouse CGI. Clearly we had the technology- the landing was fake!

No this is an extremely biased video that presents evidence as fact, saying "this is how it was faked". Any video on the topic is either pro or anti the conspiracy so you shouldn't use them to make up your mind. I recommend just having a good think instead.

Remember that with any huge event it is possible to find things that look out of place and if you join enough dots you will eventually make a picture. Conspiracy theorists focus on these tiny details and forget the overwhelming evidence on the opposing side of the argument.

EDIT: I made some assumptions about this video which are false.

Look guys I’ve watched all the video on YouTube proving the moon landing is real. And I’m not just gonna believe in any conspiracy theory. I know the earth is not flat. Idk about the other moon landings. But the first one could be debated. Just like the government was hiding all that time the aliens are real. Or they have another life form.

Dot Branning was killed off in Eastenders (and real life) so she could be installed as the top secret Head of the World Health Organisation.
I thought the TSR stereotype was that students on here are intelligent and academic
