Make Conspiracy Theories Fun Again Embroidered cord hat
Coutesy of Jack [Redacted] Personal merchandise created by Jack [Redacted]. A TikTok filmed by Jack shows them designing the hat, basing the slogan on a comment found on Maggie B’s Reddit profile. Our research shows that Maggie added this comment to a post on r/HighStrangeness, discussing the ‘de-evolution’ of online conspiracy boards into politics, and a longing to talk about bigfoot without listening to political rantings. Jack [Redacted] had previously listed these hats for sale via Etsy.com in 2021, and in 2024 the leftover stock was donated to Shy Bairns. The remaining hats are available to purchase in The Grundy’s gift shop.
