The provided text is an analysis of the film “American Moon” by Massimo Mazzucco, which argues that the Apollo missions were faked. The author, Miles Mathis, agrees with the premise that the Moon landings were faked but believes the film and similar exposés engage in “controlled opposition” by misdirecting viewers from the true motive: the massive theft of public funds. Mathis asserts that the Apollo program was a con to steal billions from taxpayers, and the Vietnam War was similarly a “suck-from-the-treasury project.” He criticizes the film and other Moon hoax proponents for failing to emphasize the scale of the financial crime and for not connecting it to ongoing schemes like the Artemis Program.

Mathis also scrutinizes the individuals involved in promoting the Moon hoax narrative and those who debunk it, suggesting many are part of a coordinated effort to control public perception. He delves into the genealogies of prominent figures in the “Moon Hoax” discussion and debunking circles, such as Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman, Philip Plait, James Randi, and Penn Jillette, claiming they are all connected through ancient, powerful families and secret societies, which he refers to as the “Phoenician Navy.” Mathis argues that these individuals, regardless of their stated position, are ultimately agents designed to distract from the systemic corruption. He further contends that events like the Chernobyl disaster and Three Mile Island incident were faked to promote fear of nuclear technology and justify massive defense spending. The author concludes by urging readers to demand restitution for the stolen funds and to cease funding current space programs, which he believes are also elaborate cons.
