    ^^ I don't watch propaganda. Do you have thoughts of your own on the matter?

    Very awakening material tbh. I know it's not easy to swallow the red pill but the truth will set you free. Once you start discovering things and connecting the dots everything will start to make sense. I don't fault you for not wanting to watch.

    I just don't do pills or connecting the dots, tbh, I'm a pragmatist.

    If I wanted to watch propaganda, YouTube and Twitter are easily reachable. Then I don't have to think for myself, I can just let others (with or without ulterior motives) do the thinking for me. It's intellectually lazy, and normally omits counter points.

    I much rather go to the sources, differing views or not, and do the thinking for myself. But I get it, not everybody has the time to do that.

    And if the rest of the world was as "pragmatic" as you, that'd be a great way to understand the world.

    I'm not saying I agree with TGY's vent, certainly not fully. But at least he gets that the state of the world is not as advertised.

    The vast majority of the world *is* pragmatic. That's why conspira s are indeed a fringe, and rightly so. It's all talk. The claims are indeed based on faith, not facts. Otherwise, there would be no dots to connect. The "red pill" crowd is the "I wanna believe" crowd.

    When I want fiction, there's plenty of enjoyable literature available, tbh.

    Apathetic is the adjective you're looking for.

    Not at all. Most people have little to no idea what is going on in these power circles; worse yet, they're generally not concerned.

    Most people want actual evidence of the claims, which they are almost never provided, hence, the whole 'connect the dots'.

    You're not enlightened because you play Jump to Conclusions. You're just as ignorant, but have faith in an outcome.

    The evidence is out there. People just choose to be wilfully ignorant. I like to keep an open mind. Echo chambers are not good. History has been distorted by the victors ommiting their evil doings.

    I got suspended from Facebook for 7 days. Anything that is pro-white, pro-Hitler or anti-Israel will get you suspended. To learn who rules over you find out who you're not allowed to criticize. Zionism and Jewish supremacy are evil and racist ideologies that people need to wake up to.

    To find out the lies that our own imperialist government is telliing us just go listen to other country's news media such as Venezuela (TeleSUR), Iran (PressTV), and Russia (RT). I give them the benefit of the doubt when it comes to foreign policy just for the simple fact that we are the aggressors.

    What is that supposed to mean and et cetera.

    The bolded is exactly what religious zealots tell you about the invisible friend in the sky. There's really is no difference, because the evidence is not out there, you have to take some leaps of faith/connect some dots/jump to some conclusion, simply because the facts are actually not on your side.

    Now, I don't want this to sound personal, it isn't. There's a lot of good, harmless people that are conspiracy fans, science fiction fans or extremely religious. And I couldn't care less what they believe in, if it makes them happy so be it.

    Where it gets dangerous is when some of those gullible people get steered towards hate, anger, etc. Then you get them to partake in xenophobia, racism, bigotry...

    I normally read both sides of a topic, even if I consciously bias towards one. It's the only way to go these days, and obviously, I steer clear of fake news, which there are plenty these days, coming from both sides.

    You don't believe in "The Matrix?" There is a lot of truth in that movie. You should read "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion."

    You're a good guy, more informed than the average person so we'll just leave it there.

    The Protocol is perhaps one of the most well-known literal forgeries of all time. No surprise it was picked up by a Russian Orthodox either, back when Russia was holding the largest population of Jews in the world, and when the raise of Nationalism there caused resentment among Russians.

    Honestly, it boggles the mind that a 120 year old hoax, perpetuated itself (I guess the Bible goes further, but I digress)

    I mean, it's so bad, that it completely fumbled, since it predates the holocaust by a good number of decades. Talk about world domination epic fail.

    Worth noting also: the Protocol was spread by every single one of the completely irrational groups we've had in the last 100 years: Nazis, the Klan, Arabs, you name it.

    Look, you're not a bad guy either, I think you just fell for the usual religious trap where you pick a side.

    Notice something in common with all the sides here? religion. Perhaps one of the largest handicaps this world has seen.

    I agree with you here. The world would be so much better without these religous lunatics in power. I hate Christian fundamentalists, Muslim extremists and Jewish supremacists. None of these psychos would exist without religion. Religion is used to brainwash and control people.

    Religion historically had it's utilitarian value when we were not yet as advanced as we're now as a generally lawful society. That shouldn't be overlooked, IMO. And sure, excesses always existed within it (well do ented), and especially among the more conservative/hardliner segments.

    In this day and age, however, if you want to make any conflict much worse, just add a bit of religion to it. Just sad and pathetic there's still some people that keep falling for the same thing over and over. And it costs lives, it's not a minor thing.
