Those are the ones the whackjobs go to first unfortunately.

“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...

The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”

Don't think it ever did.? MSM bought and owned by billionaire conglomerates belonging to associations like Bilderberg Group, Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commissions, Royal Institute for International Affairs, etc. Also politicians of all sides belonging to these same groups, meeting in secret to arrange world events and how they should be reported. All MSM stories 'sourced' from Reuters (owned by the same groups) or even quoted direct from "official sources" without even bothering to interject with a critique.
So anything outside the official line becomes a "conspiracy theory".

Good point. I thought about that too after I had posted it.

The job of news is not to critique things.

If you believe that it goes a long way to explaining some of the rubbish you come out with.

No, the crafted nonsense posted and read on the internet already *is* a conspiracy theory.

Which puts the onus on the reader to verify the source of this bollocks and unravel the partial facts and lies commonly employed.

Which whackjobs, of course, never do.

meeting in secret to arrange world events

If they are meeting in secret, how do you know about it?

Be ever so cautious about imbibing convention and officialdom.

False wisdom and knowledge.

A good advice for the ones who do not own his own brain to see immediately whether it is a lie or not...

Well.....it's quite clear that many are vacant of the ability regarding independent, challenging and questioning thought.

Ahem...

I’m not going to let it go. You’ve followed me around the forum for months with your off topic shite.

From what county do you hail, Klondyke?

I'm old enough to remember when questioning officialdom on the aforementioned Gulf of Tonkin subject was considered conspiracy theory. Then when it was acknowledged that the official story was a lie it became truth. How many other controversial subjects will end up the same way eventually?

The USS Liberty incident, also in the 1960s, is becoming public knowledge that the official story was a lie. Unquestionably parroted by the mockingbird media at the time.

Yes Jeff, but do you think you'll ever change?

Conspiracy Theorists: 'Don't believe the official story! You are sheeple!'
Also Conspiracy Theorists: *Believe anything and anyone that fits their narrative no matter how obviously logically-flawed*

Wondering whether nowadays The Guardian is also classified as conspirator theorist when they had dared to publicise this? (as publicised by many others, but not MSM)

That was the time before The Guardian publicised also the Wikileaks. Afterwards, when all the hard drives were properly smashed, The Guardian will no longer make such foolishness, hence, can be now classified as "recognized MSM"...

By all means fill us in on your top secret whackjob knowledge of what actually happened.

^^Their website is a mine of info, eh?

Are journalists allowed to attend – is there an accreditation procedure and how can I apply?

The Meeting is closed to reporting journalists in order to encourage the highest level of openness and dialogue. As a result, there is no accreditation of journalists.

Okay then.

Congratulations, you've just discovered that there are organisations that hold private meetings.

Genius!
