I've found over the years that in general, the louder someone screams MUST SEE/HEAR/READ, the more bullshit it is. If it wasn't bullshit, they wouldn't need to try so hard to convince you to pay attention to it.

Then how do you explain the feedback you get when you direct a signal to the beacon that was left on the moon?

This was because the government could not directly shut down the privately owned federal reserve, the organization that prints money out of thin air, backed by absolutely nothing.
The federal reserve is a private organization with no ties to the government except for the money it loans it, US money is federal reserve money, not US government money. welcome to the US national debt crisis in a nutshell.
A decent bolt action rifle and a few rounds, or trillions in lost profits as well as a complete loss of power. No president has had the will, or the balls to take on the federal reserve since.

shooting a beacon onto the moon is easier than landing on it and taking off again?
/shrug
Except for the fact that the only navigational aid they had back in the day, was a gyro and some shitty computers to control the thrusters. The computer I have now is more powerful than the one inside the landing module back in the day.
It requires a human pilot, meaning the beacon that is on the moon now was placed there by an astronaut.

doesn't that make it even more impossible that they landed and took off rather than take aim and press a trigger for a beacon? if it hits the mark great if it doesnt shoot another one?
was the beacon "pingable" back in the day or was that something that was tested afterwards?
(i dunno i dont doubt that they landed on the moon im just trying to support the crazy ideas to see if its possible lol)

Kind of misleading (my bad), by signal I meant a laser signal, point it at the beacon (reflector) and it will come back to the source (laser site) on earth.
