Exclusive: FBI document warns conspiracy theories are a new domestic terrorism threat

a reply to: Mike Stivic

And with the actor guy at the pizza parlor. It almost makes me wonder if the reasoning behind the push on this story was to prep people for a "FF" event based around something happening? I stand by my reasoning for the story, but the fact that it was leaked out gives me pause as to why? A couple of guesses:
1 It was to cover up the tracks on some criminal behavior by Federal Agents to the public
2 It's to make people feel safer knowing that a mass shooting event that has yet to take place was being done by a "known Conspiracy nut"
3 The story is being leaked out to discredit a currently on going investigation
or
4 the story was put out there to make some people who are currently being investigated, but are nose deep in this side of society, can feel safer

No matter what though, this story being out there is only going to make more people look into these "theories" more than if nothing was said at all.

Congrats ATS users. You're on the list.

we know.. on most other "conspiracy sites" it's pretty well known that ATS is DoD run Cointelpro

that's the real reason for the hotel California usernames and posts.

Wray, must go!!! I don't know, or have any info that is negative on him, except his possible associations from Collage. Yale! He might be a good guy but because of his possible associations (Deep State/ Spiders web) it has a nasty appearance!

His position is far too important to just go with the flow.


Didn't the "conspiracy theory" start with the CIA? Sounds like crossed wires. Besides, the FBI is there to uncover conspiracy theories...…., not negate them...


President Trump, find someone else...

This would be the FBI that exists now, under the ultimate leadership of Donald J. Trump?

Very interesting.

Edit to add:
Maybe this is the FBI way of trying to look like they don't believe in QAnon and Pizzagate?

According to what I'm reading, they blame Trump for this....

example:

He notes that at the Department of Homeland Security, “nearly all, if not all, the intelligence analysts focusing on domestic extremist groups” were eliminated under the Trump administration. “There is no one there doing this,” he said.

IMO, the fbi was taken over by the deep state- possibly when mr.clinton took office, possibly before then.

Whenever it happened, that doesn't matter- they're now targeting people who discuss how they might be corrupt.

If that's not suspect, I don't know what is.

Oohhhhh, thanks! That makes sense.

Agreed.



Aaaaand now the song is stuck in my head.

President Trump just said before getting on the plane for the Cincinnati rally tonight that the federal courts just ruled Trump Russia collusion as a total hoax.

Confirmed. mobile.twitter.com...

So "HOAX Theorist" is that an OK title? or "HOAX Exposure Theorist" that sounds better.

a reply to: PurpleFox

Indeed.

Mr. Trump is a CT too!

tff.

Fffff, the real conspiracy is the whole system is rigged to generate work and profit for lawyers. What do you expect from a system ran by lawyers.

I'm specifically talking about the Few agitators who come and go.

Hm, I wonder if any intelligence agency has ever planted provocateurs within groups to make it appear as if said group were a danger to society?




...




I mean that kind of thing never happens, right?

...right?

Well, the FBI did provide evidence of past cases where these conspiracy theories were motivating people to do violent acts. The FBI also said that they could not simply monitor all activity related to conspiracy theories, because it violates First Amendment rights.

In other news, I read that Facebook will be monitoring Whatsapp messages for shady content. Apparently, corporations don't have to worry about First Amendment rights. I would be worried about that. It sounds like a loophole!
