The Davos content always makes me laugh. I'm sure there are certain members that would love a New World Order, but they don't have enough influence. And the suggestion that there's a secret government controlling all sides and planning out a NWO, that's the stuff of delusional fairy tales. Fun to think about, but not at all feasible.
lifetime appointments without a mandatory retirement age compound the problem
That doesn't surprise me. Farage is one of the far-right success stories that no one thought would actually happen. Even Farage didn't think it would happen and he wasn't prepared. That's why he bailed.
a bit like JFK conspiracy theories... a lot of fun to consider but ultimately, very little holds up
when it comes to Farage, we'll see... the economic effects of Brexit have not been fully felt yet by Brits and if stormy seas are headed for the US, a tsunami just might be headed for the UK
My favourite one of those was from a terrible movie. Can't remember the name of it, I think it was called "the wrong guy" or something like that. Elliot from Just Shoot Me was this conspiracy theorist. He says to the main character, "you know how many shooters fired at JFK? None. His head just did that. I called it the No Gunmen Theory"
it was an expensive witch hunt that delivered very little at the expense to tax payers.
That pretty much sums up everything the government ever does.
there is a theory that JFK was killed by his driver and that the Zapruder film was doctored to cut that out and the evidence is the head turn from the driver and front passenger being doubly quick than humanly possible
Which cultist would that be?
The fact that the driver theory exists doesn't surprise me at all. The JFK theories are a shining example of why most conspiracy theories exist. There's a completely plausible explanation. A single shooter who hated JFK and was angry and well trained, so he killed him.
You can look at it that way, or you can see it for what it was. A misuse of public funds to take out a political opponent, and nothing more.
I am a big proponent of a healthy scepticism to the news we are fed and so, I probably appreciate conspiracy theories more than most... I also think they serve a good purpose for most in that they, purposely or not, properly test the evidence upon which the official story rests
Nope. There was evidence at foreign government interfered with a US election. That was also confirmed during the investigation. Russia actually put a lot of effort into influencing the election and succeeded to a certain amount.
I strongly support scepticism. Science is based on scepticism. And the media should definitely be scrutinised through a sceptical lense. But you have to be cautious. Many will mistake "scepticism" for "believing the complete opposite". A key point of scepticism is to investigate the facts from an unbiased point of view. Unfortunately most conspiracy theories don't do this. They believe the opposite of the told story and refuse to accept evidence to the contrary. Which is why I often go back to the 9/11 stuff. It doesn't matter how often thorough explanations are provided, the stance of CTs is to ignore the evidence and claim that it's all fake.
No matter what happens..it will definitely be..a three ring one at that!
What evidence? The hoax paid for by the Clinton foundation, played on loop by leftist media and fed to leftist sheep. And verified by fact checkers of course..lol
There’s one guy out there who says it was Jackie that did it when she leans over to him ..yeah she puts a gun under his chin and fires..mind you she was leaning over to check him as he clutched his throat as the bullet passed through his neck.. And when she moves back over the boot of the car she is actually scrambling for the gun because she dropped it..
Dude. Seriously?
