aaron Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) What's absurd is the fact that "we're all in this together" is treated as a theory of conspiracy. It's clearly a fact and you're a fucking idiot if you think otherwise. We've never been "in it together". Never.   Anyway. This is my first time in this thread. Here's something of interest:  Microsoft has filed a patent for a system that monitors the behavior of employees via computers, phone calls, and physical gestures, and alerts human resources if anyone is behaving outside of preferred norms. http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser...=DN/20110276369  Fits too nicely with the US aim of detecting "national security threats" (arf) by technology.   Odd that The Sun gave two pages to discredit Icke. Sure, Icke talks some interesting stuff but it's not been disproved. Encouraging people to not think critically is fucking outragous. People should think for themselves and take time to view the evidence. Instead, most people are scared of sticking out and fight for the Quo by default.   Many people still think the Royal family are mere figure-heads for tourism. That's how blinded people are! Many people think we should pay the amount of tax we do or even more. That's how ignorant of history many people are!   We're getting robbed and enslaved and most people are apathetic towards this.   We're living in a bad remake of Logan's Run here.

Loki Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) How do I "disprove" that the world's elite are lizardmen aliens wearing human skin? Do I have to take a potato peeler to Peter Mandelson? Â I know you struggle to understand this, but there's a big difference between "thinking critically" and "speculating wildly". I'll try to explain. Â A critical thought might be "I notice that a non-government employee Adam Werrity seems to be following the Defence Secretary around the world and sitting in on meetings. That sounds suspicious, perhaps he is abusing a personal relationship to promote his own business ends." Â A wild speculation might be "My life doesn't make sense - perhaps we're all holograms." Or "I don't like the Queen, she must be the result of human/reptile cross-breeding". Â In the former, an observable fact leads to a hypothesis that can then be examined in way that either leads to the story being found correct, or to being found incorrect. This is how good journalism works. Â In the latter, your man Icke has taken something that is NOT an observable fact, and drawn conclusions from it that cannot be proven. They could be disproven, if the queen consented to a blood test I guess, but the point is that the speculation starts from nothing more than a madman's fantasy. Â The reason that you elicit such laughter and derision, both on this website and in real life, is that you cannot distinguish between the two. This leaves you vulnerable to conmen and the genuinely deluded. You're like a man wearing pink-tinted sunglasses who can't understand why everyone else sees the world in different hues. WHY CAN'T THEY SEE IT? Â Â Â Incidentally, I think the madness and hilarity of conspiracy nuts is just perfectly summed up in this picture: Â Can't you see it? Look at the eyes! It's PROOF!

Loki Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Any chance of you responding to anything aaron, or are you just an RSS newsfeed for crap? How about starting with LaGoosh and working your way back to the Politics thread to explain what you think a corporatist society means?

Loki Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Oh, Icke aint my man. Just deriding the common theme of laugh first, ask questions later. Â If that's a response to me, then it's a rubbish cop-out. So you're admitting that Icke is full of shit, but deriding people who know he's full of shit as sheeples? That doesn't make sense, even in your weird world, surely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinc Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 In a strange way, I don't find his stuff any more hilarious than the current Government telling us that "we're all in this together". That statement right there belongs in the same company as lizard men. Even if neither statement is true, surely you can see how the former statement is at least more parsimonious than the latter? There is reasonable warrant to believe that 'we' and 'this' exist, while the same cannot be said of 'lizard men'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Chilly McFreeze Posted November 28, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 28, 2011 I'm a long time lurker of this thread, never felt the need to contribute as others cover the topics of discussion pretty well, and do a fine job of making Duane look like the tool we all know he is. Â One thing I don't think has been discussed is the Flat Earth Society. Â I honestly thought it was a joke until I read more into it. People actually belive this shit. Â Now, if you're anything like me, you have a myriad of objections without going to far into the details of it. It's obviously boswollox of the highest order. Â Thankfully, I managed to find this succinct summation of their responses to their most frequently asked questions, it's a riveting read and I highly reccomend it: Â http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/i...hp?topic=6308.0 Â What a tragic waste of enegy it is to even entertain such an obviously wrong idea.

The most worthless "currency" around that can have wild variations on value by small market moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
