Well, lets call it "The Conspiracy Movement"

The Conspiracy Movement Synonymous with the Womens Movement and the "Hippy Movement"

What is The Conspiracy Movement?

Well, how about simply, a group of people who are aware and choose not to ignore the lurking Corporate hacks trying to control everything, and it goes a little somein' like a dis:

"The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of a self created screen....At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as international bankers. The little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both political parties." (New York City Mayor John F. Hylan, 1922 )

The Conspiracy Movement is made of people who deny ignorance; who have reprogrammed themselves, shaken out that "Patriotic rah rah version 2.0" program shoved into our minds thorughout our upbringing; people who override their conditioned "short-circuits" in the face of daunting information about their own Government; people who refuse to be another of the many sheople; people who question everything, since the overaching "belief" among us is that the Corporate hacks are behind everything, from the JFK assasiantion, to Watergate, to AIDS and War, specially Iraq.

Some choose to argue and don't accept our world view. Perhaps the results of, for example, the US Government's Warren Commission associated with the JFK investigation are not absurd enough for them. Perhaps the common knowledge of MKULTRA (CIA mind control experiments) where families have been through public court and Clinton has made public apologies about the thousands of unwitting Americans and some Canadians involved in experiments without prior consent is not enough. Perhaps the mystery behind Gulf War Illness is not enough. Perhaps the blatant wrong doing of the Americans going to War in Iraq is not enough: 10's of thousands of innocents perished, and the Pentagon says, "We don't count civilian deaths." Perhaps people see what we see but are just too wrapped up in their lives to really care or think they can make a difference. Need I mention the absurdity of 9/11?

For those who say we have no evidence, that is toally incorrect. All I can say is stop short-circuting and be aware, very aware, that the Corporate hacks are everywhere, and they don't care about you and your stupid life.

Will this movement be the one that changes everything? The next step in the evolution of North American culture?

Why not call it the "paranoid" movement? Or, as some shadowy corporate entity (ies) are the enemy, the socialist movement?
If you want to question everything and in the same post allude to "common knowledge", you have a consistancy problem.

Realist05:

Call it socialist then. And no, I don't have a consistency problem: there is nothing logically unclean about questioning everything and leaning toward an explanation that is the best of the bunch. And you are taking it out of context: I don't question whether my girlfriend has fake tits, or whether my dog is actually eating dog food each day or tricking me by projecting itself as a hollographic image eating dog food, what we question, in the context of this movement (politics), is what the Government tells us is the reasons for x, a, etc.

Moreover, questioning everything does not mean that there are no answers or end in sight: that is the whole point to begin, reaching a conclusion.

And if you want to get technical, I never said NOT to question common knowledge either. Therefore, looks like you have a problem with reading posts, bubba.

Well, no doubt, question everything (almost) and understand people and institutions manipulate or manufacture facts to help themselves, but the left's belief in some corporatist uber-conspiracy that puts us in some kind of "Matrix"(TM) false reality is in itself a form of ignorance.

I agree about the matrix ignorance thing. What is your theory of "everything" so to speak?

it shouldnt even be considered a conspiracy, corperations/government are nearly an identicle entity. there is no place for the common man outside of this fictional realm of freedom.

sturod84:

Well said.

Tell you what, I thank God for the Internet.

Can you imagine what they'd be pulling off right now if we didn't have the information superhighway? No way to communicate like we do?

I shudder to think about it.

I am sure that some groups have not so nice motives, however, to think of everything as some conspiracy against mankind is a bit much. It is like the 911 conspiracy stuff. Do you really think our gov't is bright enough to pull off a conspiracy of that size? Doubt it. What I find odd about conspiracy stuff is that often gov't's are considered dumb and acting with malice yet at the same time smart enough to pull the wool over all our eyes. You cannot have it both ways. Yes there are some cover ups and by all of us even in our daily lives but it does not mean some elite new world order is about to take over the planet. I try not to be too ignorant but I do like to see some facts before I start pointing fingers.

rosiewashere:

You smarter than that.

Oh my god there's a Conspiracy Movement.
