the conspiracy theory thread

[walkonby]

but everybody is making lots of money and obtaining more and more power from everything that has happened.  they still are making money and obtaining power.  you don't think money and power are powerful forces?  people have done a lot worse throughout history than the number of people who died on nine eleven, for just the power part.  people give too much "sacred trust" in their governments.

people are opportunistic, and times of chaos are always profitable for some.   U.S. companies profited massively off of World War II -- by your logic, the U.S. Government created Hitler.

(Bracing myself for you or Jaguar to tell me they did.)

No.

No.

conspiracy theories seem like a slippery slope.  where do you draw a line?  based on your scientific / technical knowledge / research?  gut-based assessment of the message or messengers?

[Jaguar]

The very same slippery slope that blind allegiance to the mainstream media and complete trust in the big corporations with more power than individuals will lead you. Especially for those who refuse to bother to do any real research outside of the corporate party lines. 

That other thread was locked. Take that as a big hint that it's not meant to be carried over to other threads.

sovereign citizens and truthers... all part of the same addled millieu.

I blame the banksters.

Many of the theories you espouse have been thoroughly debunked by impartial parties.  Is this not "real research"?

On the contrary. Most of the theories you claim to debunk these theories have been debunked as nothing but disinfo.

Stop trying to lock pick!

this gets back to my basic question of how you decide between theories - the lizard people "theory" has been debunked, and presumably people dispute such debunking - so why don't you believe in the lizard people?  if you don't believe in them, are you buying into the corporate party line for that matter, but not others?

Forget it Hoya! You are arguing solely for the sake of arguing.

The world is not just all black and white, left and right, up and down. It's much more dynamic than that with many, many aspects to take into account. If you insist on lumping all things together in an over-simplified one or the other, than your mind set thinks way too small to understand how to take every and anything separately with a discerning thought process to evaluate them each on their own merits.

You know, by your reasoning, that's like assuming that just because someone likes music, they automatically assume that they like Roxy Music, Billy Ray Cyrus, Miles Davis, Madonna, Black Sabbath and My Bloody Valentine equally. Hey, they like music. The MUST like all music. That's exactly what you are doing.

Again, please STOP LOCK PICKING!!!!
