Boxer Ryan Garcia's wild accusations about aliens and an elite club named Bohemian Grove, have sparked wild conspiracy theories online ever since they were posted on X on Tuesday, March 5, 2024. In an X-space with Andrew Tate, Garcia alleged that the Bohemian Grove is "real," adding “They held me down and made me watch little kids get raped.” “I have proof.”

It must be noted that shortly before Ryan Garcia made the wild claims, he wrote on X that he was hacked and nobody could do anything to stop it, before following it up with a picture of an alien.

Garcia's claims have sparked the curiosity of conspiracy theorists who believe the elites are part of a secret club.

According to Business Insider, Bohemian Grove is reportedly a San Francisco-based private club founded in 1874 by debauched journalists and artists to let off steam within the privacy of a giant redwood forest, in Sonoma County, California. The club seemingly does not accept any female members.

Over the years, the members, initially comprising of journalists and artists, were supposedly displaced by wealthy, powerful men, including directors of Fortune 500 companies and US presidents. According to Financial Times, Presidents Roosevelt, Taft, Hoover, Eisenhower, Nixon, Ford, Reagan and George Bush - both senior and junior - have allegedly passed through the club.

According to the outlet, in the club, talk of business is reportedly officially forbidden, but members are allowed to engage in informal “lakeside chats" on the concerning issues of the day. They also allegedly engage in skinny-dipping, skeet-shooting, heavy drinking and elaborate theatrical entertainments.


Ryan Garcia's Bohemian Grove claim sparks conspiracy theories online

Ryan Garcia’s recent revelation about a private club for the elites has fueled conspiracy theories online. On Tuesday, in an X space with Andrew Tate, Garcia said:

“I’m not f*cking joking, bro. I have f*cking proof, bro. I don’t give a f*ck. Bro, I f*cking will show you every f*cking video you could ever f*cking believe, bro. Bohemian Grove is real. They f*cking tied me down and they made me f*cking watch, dog. I actually don’t give a f*ck anymore. Yes, I f*cking lost it. They were r*ping little kids.”

The Bohemian Grove allegations have sparked multiple conspiracy theories online.


Alex Jones' Bohemian grove claim explored

Netizens have also dredged up old footage of Bohemian Grove, secretly recorded by Alex Jones — the founder of the conspiracy theory website, Infowars. The footage was reportedly taken in 2000, when Jones and British journalist Jon Ronson seemingly went to the Bohemian Grove and taped the club’s ‘Cremation of Care’ ceremony.

According to Financial Times, for a fortnight in July, only male members gather at the grove and mark the beginning of the festivities with a ceremony known as the Cremation of Care, where robed figures carry an effigy representing the “dull cares” of everyday life to a 40ft concrete owl and then proceed to burn the effigy.

Jones, who reportedly secretly taped the ‘Cremation of Care,’ labeled the ceremony as “Luciferean garbage”, and suggested the members offered real human sacrifices to their “owl god”.

However, the journalist who went with Jones to investigate the club, called it men in power reliving their college years by indulging in “cod-pagan spooky ritual.”

In light of recent Ryan Gracia allegations, some people online suggested Bohemian Grove was the manifestation of the Illuminati.

According to Financial Times, in 2017, journalist Jack Latham reportedly visited the Grove to investigate people's fascination with the club. Latham, who was allowed inside the gates, reported that when talking to the locals in the area, he discovered people do not believe it’s an Illuminati but “just fat white men who go and camp for two weeks.”
