What would urban legends and conspiracy theories in alternate timelines be like?
We could always have more UFO theories in any timeline. Every time something unusual crashes into the Earth, people start screaming about a government cover-up. Although if you let these incidents reach a critical mass, you could see them gain some validity in the public consciousness.
If the American Revolution was somehow delayed until the 1950-70 then we could see something along the lines of "Gangs in New York have been putting LSD-laced needles into telephone coin-return slots. They claim to be the Anti-British independence faction 'Sons of Liberty' and have over 30,000 members continent-wide.".
