Why did the reptilians create the Saturn-Lunar matrix, how conspiracy theories help explain life’s difficulties, and what is the danger of such theories
The progress of science and technology does not exclude the conspiracy picture of the world. On the contrary, the more complex the world becomes, the higher the demand for simplified models of its explanation. The theme of space is no exception. Much of what has to do with it is shrouded in rumors, speculation and myths.
We have selected the most tempting conspiracy theories about space since its exploration. They work on the same principles as any other conspiracy theory – they exploit the imperfections of human thinking. How exactly this happens, we briefly analyze for each of the theories. Read also:

Reptilians rule the world
Spoiler: so-called reptilians do not exist
The story about reptilian aliens who have long since arrived on Earth from a distant planet, mimicking people and ruling the world, has become a well-known Internet meme. This exotic conspiracy theory is one of the most popular today.
Reptilians include Mark Zuckerberg, Queen Elizabeth II, George W. Bush and many other famous people. The Internet is flooded with discussions in which people dissect photos and videos of celebrities in search of vertical pupils, arching knees, scales and other attributes of reptiles.
Probably a significant portion of the reptilian whistleblowers on the web are just internet trolls. However, adherents of the theory are also active offline, mainly in meetings with the main preacher of the reptilian conspiracy named David Icke. This is a former British footballer and sports commentator who in the early 1990s became interested in mysticism and the search for answers to the question of who rules the world. In 1999, his book The Biggest Secret was published, and since then, thousands of people have come to his public performances.
It is in Hayk’s books that one can find the main postulates of the theory of humanoid reptiles. They arrived on Earth at the very beginning of the formation of human civilization. Back in the days of ancient Sumer, they created a secret organization – the “Babylonian Brotherhood” – in order to concentrate power on Earth in their hands. They rule the world using religion and science, creating conflicts and fictitious issues to divert people’s attention. All the worst that can be imagined is the work of their hands (or paws): hunting for people and ritual drinking of blood, rape of women and pedophilia, Satanism, the Holocaust, the September 11 attacks, epidemics, wars, racism and fascism.
The secret organization established by the reptilians, according to Hayk, includes any representatives of the elite: monarchs and politicians, businessmen and celebrities, scientists and journalists. All other secret and public influential organizations – from the Masonic lodge to the UN – are also created by the Babylonian Brotherhood. Reptilians force the earthly elites to do their will, and they themselves live in secret underground bases. Although some are sure that they live among people, as they have learned to create holograms that make them indistinguishable from humans.
Ancient reptiles, according to Hayk, completely enslaved the consciousness and will of people with the help of a system of space irradiators. The rings of Saturn, like the Moon, were created by reptilian aliens. The giant hexagon at Saturn’s north pole is the source of the signal, which then travels to the Moon and is then relayed to Earth. This signal enters people directly into the brain and forms the reality into which the reptilians want to immerse us. In the end, according to Ike, humanity lives in the “Saturn-Lunar Matrix”.
All this could be considered a funny pseudo-science fiction, if it were not for the very specific consequences for people’s health, and not only mental ones. So, it was Hayk who was among the most active propagandists of conspiracy theories about the connection between 5G towers and COVID-19, about the virus as a biological weapon, and about refusing to vaccinate.
Why do they believe it
- Distrust of elites and life’s difficulties
As Ilya Yablokov, author of The Russian Culture of Conspiracy, notes, David Icke does not immediately start talking about reptiles in his speeches. First, he talks for a long time about how bad the elites are, for example, who caused the financial crisis. And only then, when the emotions of people affected by various injustices are on his side, Hayk moves on to the reptilians.
How conspiracy theory works
The conspiracy theory, also known as a conspiracy theory, presents the events in the world as the result of the action of certain forces, usually mysterious and very influential. Conspiracies explain both simply resonant events, such as terrorist attacks, and global processes such as managing the world. In the conspiracy picture of the world, everything is filled with intent (usually unkind) and there is a certain puppeteer who pulls the strings for his own benefit. Why this happens, we analyzed in detail in the material “Why do people believe in conspiracy theories.”
Conspiracy theorists are increasingly calling themselves not conspiracy theorists, but skeptics. Their philosophy is to doubt everything. In everything except their own mental attitudes.
