Quoting: monica6269 An entire segment dedicated to how devastating conspiracy theories are... and how to handle family members who believe them... Unbelievable. They actually link the belief of conspiracy theories to a serious mental health diagnosis. Wait... what?? This is absurd.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 2590977 United States 08/13/2019 03:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Who cares they criminalized Galileo for saying the earth orbited the sun. Truth can't be suppressed it will come out one way or another. Quoting: Geraldgar Saying the earth orbits the sun isn't a conspiracy theory. They were treating it as one at one time is what I'm saying. |

Well all I'm saying is if you don't place blame, you are just a theorist and if we get rid of theories then we might as well get rid of science and since we are getting rid of science the earth might as well be flat. |

User ID: 73724632 United States 08/13/2019 03:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Of course, we all do. A conspiracy is when more than 2 or more people plan to do something in secret - either an event, a project, a program, whatever. Something they want to hide from the rest of us especially if they can give it a facade of being something else. That's all it is. The idea is not complex. And conspiracies routinely happen ALL THE TIME, in and out of government. Therefore if you aren't placing blame on 2 or more people, all you have is a theory. I'm not going to waste time debating with you, I see the diversion tactic. Sorry. |

User ID: 16184682 United States 08/13/2019 03:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Definition of conspiracy Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69237040 1 : the act of conspiring together They were accused of conspiracy to commit murder. 2a : an agreement among conspirators uncovered a conspiracy against the government b : a group of conspirators a conspiracy made up of disgruntled aristocrats MAKE SURE TO PLACE ALL YOUR THEORETICAL BLAME ON A SINGLE ENTITY AS TO NOT BE A CONSPIRACY THEORIST Is this why (almost) all mass shootings have started out with multiple eyewitness accounts of guys in black (two or more) running around shooting, only to devolve into a single wacked out confused looking kid who is the sole perp? I recall well the night of the Dallas cop shootings a few years back. I was listening to broadcastify live, hearing the cops yelling out how they were pinned down by crossfire from the tops of buildings. The story kept changing till it was a single guy holed up in a parking garage who was blown up buy a robot bomb. I wasn't surprised. This is like the 4th or 5th time I have noticed that while reading about these events as they occur with multiple shooters turning into one lone nut. A good example was the Fort Hood TX shooting in 2009, people were hiding and reporting as it happened, and there were said to be 3 or 4 Caucasian men dressed in black who were shooting people. Then, the story changes to it being one guy, an Arab man who was a medical officer in the US army, and secret Muslim terrorist. Because of the descriptions going on as it was happening, and other factors I just knew this one was a false flag. Now the government wants to pass laws to make it criminal to rightly question these things. Peepaws |

This happens REPEATEDLY - even in Sandy Hook the cops picked up some guy running in the woods and then let him go. The Batman shooting in Aurora CO people said there was more than 1 guy and considerably more weaponry. We hear this over and over again. The System likes to drill the narrative down to 1 guy though as it makes an easier storyline and finish. More complications with more than 1 defendant. |

I'm inclined to think that if propaganda is the goal, labeling the witnesses as conspiracy theorists if they speak out, and subsequently getting themselves labeled as domestic terrorists also, in contrast to the actual conspirators who go on to blame a single offender as to appear rational and safe would ultimately accomplish the intended and provide the perfect cover. Merely speculation. |
