Info
HAARP is one of the most obnoxious conspiracy theories to come out of the Alex Jones Infowars sphere. It certainly didn’t originate there, but Jones and jokers like Jesse Ventura latched on to it as the dug their claws into conspiracy theory and dragged it down into a place where it wasn’t fun anymore. HAARP, the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, an atmospheric research program funded by the Air Force and Navy was a large array of antennae built in Alaska under the supervision of DARPA and military contractor, BAE Systems. It’s a whole alphabet soup of conspiracy-ready abbreviations. The project’s official cover is that it was meant to bounce radio waves off the ionosphere and communicate with submerged vessels at sea. Submarines have to surface in order to use their communications equipment because radio waves can’t penetrate the ocean and this is meant to keep these vessels under the ocean for long or something.
Of course, due to shit like El Nino and the warming of the god damn oceans, weather of late has been pretty intense and wouldn’t you know it, it was all Obama’s fault. Tsunamis, hurricanes, earthquakes in the Pacific Ocean, of all the shit to heap on that guy, of all the stuff you could have pointed to as being nefarious it’s telling that alt-right shitheads thought the guy had a weather machine and its name was HAARP.
