Conspiracy Crap

Post by koan »

Had to listen to some live crap tonight and what they can't seem to understand is that I'm open minded... I'm just so open minded that I hope they're right and the world ends.

Really? You think this is a good thing being human?

All of these conspiracies end up incorporating a spiritual backbone and that same backbone... if they understood it... says that we are healed when we don't have to be reborn.

If the OP is unclear: kill us. kill us all. make the world composed only of you and your inbred offspring. May you suffer alone.

The thing I don't like about such Conspiracies or Prophesies is that they too often become "self-fulfilling." People believe (or want to believe) them so much that they take actions, consciously or unconsciously, to bring them about. If enough people are convinced, those events thereby come to pass.

What I don't like most about them is that they are inspired by a wannabe guru who pieced together all their info from legitimate things but warped it to make themselves the hero.

To which group of wacko conspiracy theorists are you referring?

Or is this just a general rant?

I only listen to them type for the entertainment value.

Nah. Have a new friend from work and her boyfriend is a nutbar. He took over our entire night out insisting that all of us were in grave mortal danger.

Oh, I've had that experience before, several times!

You listen to them a little bit, and they're going to save you! Then every time you see them again, they gravitate toward you, trying to "save you!"

I usually end up having to save myself...from them! :yh_eyerol

I tried the tactic that fear of extermination is really just a lack of self esteem and belief in your own ability to overcome aggression/power stealers. That seemed to get somewhere but I consider it temporary. Ultimately, the only relief is avoidance.
