Yeah, my problem is I believe people are too stupid to know what they are doing most of the time, and terrible at keeping secrets. Look at the endless fuckups the rich, connected and famous get into, to think that they are all involved in one over-reaching cabal like the Illuminati is laughable.
No, a CT “nut” does, and there is no good evidence I’ve seen that EVERY person with a conspiracy theory is a nut. Ymmv.
Not all of them are going to be involved. The ones that are will manipulate the ones who aren’t like the puppets they are.
And I have dealt with bureaucracy my entire adult life, from the inside. To think that humans could run an efficient one is pretty funny. Maybe it really is lizard people.
what this thread needs is a link to Louis CK asking Donald Rumsfeld if he is a lizard. Yes that is the real Rumsfeld.
Longer clip.
Governments are supernaturally efficient when covering up aliens and suchlike.
my point exactly.
imho conspiracy theories involves the same regions of the brain as religion. people crave order, and create it where there is none.
Yes and my filter - The New York Times - interestingly enough, today, gave an example of another filter:
That was on The New York Times’s op-ed page.
He doesn’t. He could suspect that Rupert Murdoch is one of the real rulers of the universe; however, Rupert Murdoch could be a decoy. For example: Who controls wars? The government? The mob? Hackers? Someone in Rome? Someone the royal family? Who?
John C. Yoo was presented with a similar hypothetical.
No, this is the real Rumsfeld.
Order out of chaos.
Rye or sourdough?
Yes it was the real Donald Rumsfeld. It doesn’t work very well when you are trying to be clever.
Are there any CT that you used to believe, but no longer do? If so which?
Are there any CT that you think are probably not true, but might be - if so which do you think is most likely to be a true CT, but you currently don’t really believe in it whole heatedly. How about the reverse? Which CT that you currently believe in do you have some doubts about?
What is the biggest unanswered question to you about any of the CT’s you believe in?
Do you believe Obama could (assuming he knows about it) - inform us about the illuminati? Who is the most powerful person in the world? If you could ask the illuminati one question (not something vague like “why…[everything]?”) - what would it be?
Has the illuminati ever failed in trying to pull off a conspiracy (that you know of)? Was the 1980ish shooting of Reagan a CT?
Let Obama try setting up a task force to audit ALL secret files - Obama: “YES, I really NEED TO KNOW, now fucking do it!” Subordinate: “Yes sir, I’ll get right on it.” - before his term of office ends and we’ll see how much clout he has.
Let me try yet again:
WHY?? WHY DO YOU BELIEVE THE NEW YORK TIMES TO BE TRUSTWORTHY?
So what? Did John Yoo happen to answer the hypothetical? Why are you not answering it?
Are you saying it isn’t? Is it because of da juice?
Of course you have and I bet you thought you were really important too, but there’s a reason there’s at least 30* levels of secrecy higher than Above Top Secret.
- My guess is it is 33 or 45 or some other Freemasonic number. They like to play these bs games where they pretend they are in touch with arcane secrets.
No, there isn’t. But I know you are not like Kosmik. And I won’t play along for your amusement.
Benjamin Franklin revealed that the biggest secret the Freemasons were holding is that they have no big secrets. (But I think he was just miffed that they were not more like the Hellfire Club.)
Cite? Go on, tell me you counted them personally, during your bureaucratic stint.
You did see the bit in my post where I said they pretend they have arcane secrets, didn’t you? The whole point of the levels though, is to filter out non like-minded chaps and obscure their real activities from the view of overly-interested parties who haven’t been invited into the throng.
