Time is running out. Slowly but surely, our freedoms are being eroded. At the present pace, every action we make will be monitored, policed,
adjudicated on and if
deemed so, punished. Fortunately, we haven't reached that point just yet, and one valuable tool we have at our disposal is the internet. We need to
use the
internet effectively to find truth and spread the word. Presently on ATS, I don't think we are taking full advantage.
We come to ATS for many different reasons. Most of us here however, are united by one common cause; To find and share the truth.
Many, like myself, come here to keep informed of what's happening in our world that we aren't being told about on the MSM. In addition to this, ATS
is also a rich
source of yet to be proven theories and ideas. Of Course, not all of the ideas and theories presented are accurate and this is where the vast,
critical thinking
foundations of the ATS community as a whole, can be beneficial to seperate fact from fiction. Unfortunately, the majority of threads devolve into
pointless back and
forth between members in an effort to prove their superior debating skills. This contributes nothing to the cause.
ATS needs to be a place where truth seekers can come and find the information they are after easily and efficiently. It needs to be a place where
truth spreaders
can post information they have knowledge on easily and effectively. There are many nuggets of truth here on ATS, however they are generally hidden
amongst countless
numbers of posts filled with pointless back and forth arguing, name calling, grandstanding and endless repetition. We are wasting this valuable
resource by doing
this and the time is fast approaching where it will be taken from us. So let's try and fix it while we still can?
I came across a documentary recently on 9/11. It was promoted on at least one thread here on ATS among various other sources throughout the web. It
was called "The
New Pearl Harbour" and runs for over 5 hours. Now I've been aware of the 9/11 lies for many years now, so there was not a lot of new information
here to hook me in.
However I was engrossed in watching it and had no trouble at all sitting through the 5 hours. The reason why I found it so compelling was they way
the information
was presented. There was practically no effort made to present an alternative scenario, just a dedicated and detailed dismantling of the official
version of events.
Each point was addressed one by one and demonstrated to be suspect. In additon to this, the counter argument to each suspect point was also
presented and
systematically disproven in the same fashion.
If this documentary was able to have this effect on me, a person familiar and aware of the 9/11 deception, imagine what effect it could have on the
uninitiated? If
only there was a way to distinguish a well presented piece such as this documentary from all of the others? One way would be to have a forum on ATS
dedicated not
only to presenting important truthful information, but presenting it in a clear, effective and efficient manner.
So how would it work? In a similar fashion to the documentary mentioned above, a topic would be presented with a number of areas of concern outlined.
Each area of
concern would then be detailed and the reasons why explained clearly. In response another member could reply to one area only and explain why the
reason is invalid.
The moderator would take into account whether or not each post addresses the criteria and importantly, if it has already been addressed. If it fails
this test, it
is transferred to a different thread (perhaps a thread dedicated to all of the omissions?) Hopefully this would produce a high quality, concise and
accurate thread
for all to benefit from.
What we need to remember is the ultimate cause that most of us come here for; To find and share the truth. It doesn't matter who's right and wrong.
Who is the
better debater. Who has better grammar. Who has more points, flags, stars or a nice avatar. All that matters is the truth.
So how about it, ATS?
