I keep hearing mentions of July 20 (tomorrow) on r/conspiracy. Why exactly is there speculation about this date and what is the speculation about?

Maybe I'm bad at Googling but I can't find anything.

My pregnant wife is getting induced tomorrow and my son will be born. Apparently he's going to turn into some big war hero in WW4 against the alien robots.

My daughter will be born in a few years. She will work as a leading tech expert in a highly secret government program. Your son and my daughter will have sexual intercourse in the ruins of a crashed space craft, with great grey on silver lighting.

i'm so turned on right now

It's like year 2000 and 2012. Meaning, nothing out of ordinary will happen.

If you twist numbers around enough you could come up with any date for a conspiracy, besides why would people that conspire choose dates that are easily deciphered?

Dude did you not see Office Space? Y2K was real it just got solved.

Thank you. This same problem may be looming in 2038. Hopefully by then a good solution will exist.

It depends on what you are willing to count as something. Surely something will happen tomorrow. Bombings in Israel, probable new info regarding the plane that was shot down, etc. A good amount of people will undoubtedly count this is "proof" that the July 20 prediction was legit. But this woman isn't really predicting anything. I could pick a random date (August 4th) and something will definitely happen that day just because that is the odds.

Well, Aug 4th is the day Anthony Cumia's podcast goes live ... Anthonycumia.com #standwithant

I'm already subbed.. that's why I picked that date ha.

Me too. One year baby!!!

I only did 6 months for now.

Understand completely. I did a year to make up for recent torrenting.

Naw, it's all good. It's because of a YouTube video that analyzes a speech by IMF director Christine Lagarde in which a major theme is "magic" (in her own words) and the numerological significance the number seven has. It definitely is an odd speech, but the creator of the video calls himself a master of numerology, which I know nothing about. He claims she is secretly mentioning a date (7-20-2014) that some type of event is going to happen. I'm on mobile but I think someone else posted the link.

I think it's pretty much bullshit. The good thing about these types of predictions is they give you a specific day so after that day, you conclusively know whether or not the prediction is right or wrong. To this date, no prognosticators who have given a specific date for a major world event have been right, and their reputations suffer for it. I think this will be a similar situation.

Who said the event won't be secret?

Numerology voodoo...

This link posted by shmegegy is what started speculation about July 20th. This speech seems to point to a July 20th event and the IMF proclaiming their involvement to their buddies.

agreed.

Why is that intreresting? And now that it's the 20th do you realize that the video was bullshit?

[deleted]

But you linked to the video and the person in the video (on which all this idiocy is based on) says the 20th.

Does that mean you linked to a video you didn't agree with in the first place?

Why would this be my job?

If you don't want to discuss it, i'm not going to bother and refute you. Your choice after all. I hope you have your bunker prepped because the end of the world is near.

Dude, you can't be serious. I really hope for your own sake that you are a troll.

Nope.

It's been 7/21 on halfpasthuman.

The Cancer Leo Cusp. Not that it's important, but it is when the time of the moon ends and the sun begins. Not too special. Among other things I guess

For those who doubt, would you honestly believe in the "prediction" if something like WWIII started tomorrow (7/20)?

I'm sure you'll just chalk it up to "lucky" guess or "obvious".

Well, I would certainly give it great consideration if the prediction was specific. "Something will happen July 20th" is far from specific. Something happens every day on this planet. Also, which July 20th? Which time zone is this applicable to?

Vague claims are easy to make. Specific claims are far harder.

Has this ever happened? Was anyone that made this weird date predictions actually right?

Do you realize that a person can make math that makes sense at first glance and come up with ANY date?

the imf lady speach and number compression. probably off because first they said 295 dead then they say 298 but the compression for the date was from 295.

compression for the date

What does that even mean?

context

that should be it let me know if the link is correct im on my phone and had to take out the m. in the url.

my comment was downvoted just for providing an answer? lol im not even mad at tbe paid shills.

My best guess has been /r/conspiratard astroturfing for future lols.

Despite a high number of threads, they all have low votes and participation because noone really cares.

I'm already subbed.. that's why I picked that date ha.
