There is no Titanic so James Cameron took out their sub so the truth wouldn't get out.

Ha! The whole titanic event was constructed to ensure a hit movie... Love it! Now how do we fold in some flat earth stuff?
What do you think the iceberg was for? Stopping the Titanic from finding the edge of the world.
This is my winner.
That’s actually already one lol. Minus the James Cameron part.
But I’ve already heard that they’re missing because the titanic never actually sank and so these people were taken away before they could reveal it. Like there hasn’t been dozens of trips down there already.

The submarine is staying down there because the pilot knows the Canadian wildfires are going to set the atmosphere on fire. They need to outlast the fire and repopulate the earth with the DNA they found on silverware from Titanic survivors.
I'd watch a SyFy Original Pictures film with this premise, NGL.
I'd watch a whole damn series.
There is no limit to how dumb these conspiracy theories can get. It would not surprise me if Fox News said that the democrats sabotaged the submersible to prevent them from bringing back Hillary's emails that had been hidden on the wreck of the Titanic.
Are you kidding me, here in the bible belt this theory is already widely accepted as a hard fact /s
Just found in my FB feed (what am I even doing there?)
This is fucking hilarious
The Earth is flat and the real reason Titanic sunk was because it fell off the edge. The submarine went too close to the edge and the waterfall flowing off the side caused the submarine to drift over the edge of the world and fall off.
That they weren't going down to see the Titanic at all. They were really out searching for Atlantis and got caught in a battle with Namor, who obviously crushed their submarine like a soda can.
I browsed 4chan /x/ earlier today, so here's where they are...
The obvious one relates to the fact that founding members of the Federal Reserve were on the Titanic, and it was intentionally sunk to (something incoherent about economics). The submarine was sunk for similar reasons.
The Titanic didn't sink, but it was some other vessel, and They had to sink the submarine so the truth wouldn't get out.
There are deep ocean aliens, and the sub had to sink to conceal that fact.
Those are the ones I could remember. In any case, it's always the Jews and the CIA.
The Titanic being swapped out for a different ship is a persistent one that's been around for a while
Do you know what the deal is with that? I couldn't figure it out, and one of the problems with /x/ is that they assume you already know what's going on with their conspiracies.

Some government knows where the sub is, but they can't tell anyone to not show their actual surveillance capabilites.
That doesn't sound that far fetched at all. I bet US has sacrificed thousands of Ukrainian soldier's lives just not to disclose their valuable secret reconnaissance capabilities. What difference would four more people in a submarine do to change their mind?
Yeah but these are billionaires we're talking about.
Somewhere on the ocean floor would be a great place to hide Hunter Biden's laptop...
I think it's staged. You get a bunch of experts on the TV who talk about how there's a "1% chance" of survival. Then tomorrow, against all odds, they're saved! It's a miracle! Then the 4 billionaires get to be in a movie. Or maybe it takes a dark turn and I'm full of shit. Guess we'll see. Maybe they are faking their deaths.

Stepson sabotages submersible because he wasn’t allowed to go to Blink182 concert; punk rock is therefore root of all societal evil.
I already had someone suggesting it was eaten by some unknown massive deep sea dwelling creature.
I honestly wish we lived in that world.

That it went missing due to the controller used. I find it utterly absurd to believe that a submarine of such high caliber could possibly go missing due to a low-grade Mad Catz controller. In my opinion, when you’re dealing with equipment as expensive and sophisticated as a submarine, you’d expect nothing but the most advanced and reliable controls, not some generic gaming joystick. It’s quite a far-fetched conspiracy theory if you ask me.
I don’t know why people got so fixated on the game controller. Realistically they were just using it to give a computer some USB commands, and these controllers are excellent for that. The real difference between cheap and pricy ones is stuff like latency and better vibration. So no reason not to use the cheap one from a reputable brand
Not inherently a problem no, but the one they were using was wireless, and apparently reviews were full of connectivity issues. You'd think they'd pick something proven and reliable, like an official wired Xbox controller.
Or wire their own button box, so they could do stuff in case of component failures.

It defected to Russia with super advanced submarine tech and a nuclear bomb.
Orcas! They probably did the Titanic in too
It’s not really missing, there’s some life-insurance fraud going on.
It was eaten and/or mind-controlled by Leviathan; specifically, the pyramid-shaped tentacled hyperintelligent creature of that name from the Illuminatus! books.
The poop post OP is planning to go diving with a submarine and wants to be prepared for the worst.
Russia or the US torpedoed it
Probably that the wealthy people onboard were just faking their deaths.

The missing Titanic submarine was actually a covert operation by Russian President Vladimir Putin to sabotage the Ukrainian gas pipeline project that was being funded by Pakistani billionaire Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, who were on board the sub. Putin hired French diver Paul-Henri Nargeolet, who had previously explored the Titanic wreck, to plant explosives on the pipeline that runs near the Titanic site. However, the plan went wrong when British billionaire Hamish Harding, who had recently traveled to space with Jeff Bezos, discovered the plot and tried to stop it. A fight ensued inside the sub, causing it to lose contact with the surface and sink deeper into the ocean. The other passenger, Stockton Rush, founder of OceanGate Expeditions, was an innocent bystander who got caught in the crossfire. The sub is now lying at the bottom of the Atlantic, with all five passengers either dead or waiting for a miracle rescue.

In 2-5 years it'll be brought to light that 2-5 of these rich fuckers were doing some S grade, distilled Epstein level, messed up shit. The conspiracy theory will be that they were killed because 2-5 politicians were going to go to prison if anyone found out so they tried to bury it.
The ghosts of those who died will cause strange things to happen there. Maybe this happening is even a revenge from the victims of the Titanic
Wait this is probably not conspiracy but superstition 😅
It turned into a tiny submarine and is currently traversing through a whale’s intestine
