 I'm going to take you down another rabbit hole.

I have not been a fan of this theory, but given that over time virtually all conspiracy theories have been proven to be true, here goes.

The theory suggests that J.P. Morgan, who owned the White Star Line, which operated the Titanic, and an influential banker and financier, may have had an interest in eliminating opponents to the creation of the Federal Reserve. Among the Titanic's passengers were three very wealthy and prominent men: John Jacob Astor IV, Benjamin Guggenheim and Isidor Straus, who, the theory goes, were opposed to the formation of a central bank in the United States.

The rest is history, and you can dive down another rabbit hole.

 Sounds like bs to me tbh but interesting point nonetheless. Are there any good resources on the wealthy men's thoughts on central banks? 
 I don’t have a memorable source. But I’ve read up on this theory a few times. It seems to hold water (no pun). 

I believe it touches on this in the book “creature on Jekyll Island”. I may be mistaken. But i came across the theory first while reading the book. 
 More resources?
I made a full list of documentaries that MUST be watched in this gude:

 This is the year of truth.  Keep going down those rabbit holes. 💯🫡🖖🏾🦾 
 Totally probable. Read the Creature from Jekyll Island if you haven't and wait till you get to the Lusitania part later in the book 
 Exactly that.
All explained in this amazing documentary

 WOW 
 A good one 
 Rabbit holes are interesting.

So are the fortuitous coincidences of #history.

 Theory is certainly have a basis - "who benefits most"
many other famous historic false flag operations - Gulf of Tonkin - after killing Kennedy JFK 
 Thanks for the door! Now to step through it... 
 I recently learned of this book that was written 14 years before the Titanic sank and has a number of similarities to the sinking.

 It wouldn't be the first time assassination was used.

Though in this case it was far from a certain end, though certainly probable when going flat out in those waters.
