I've been on this site for about 6 months now and just recently created an account because I couldn't take it any longer. None of anyones
predictions have yet to come true. I've seen some of the worse sources anyone can give to "prove a theory" is going to happen. The people who write
this stuff on their blogging websites have psychological problems and you people who believe just about everything that involves destruction of a
society or death to people are nuts. Why is it that you people would like to see nothing, but bad things occur and believe that someone is always out
there to get you?
I sure can appreciate how you feel. I don't know if I would be angry though if and when people are wrong or more relieved. I have seen people make
predictions in 2000 saying any month now the economy is going to tank and this is why. It didn't take months but about 7 years but they sure had the
why part right!
I am sure some of the earliest Jews to leave Nazi Germany were ridiculed and some accused of 'frightening' people for no good reason as well.
History is full of some truly amazing, and unthinkable things. I would imagine that just as many people before they actually happened, as now after
they have happened, didn't think they could happen or could happen again.
I do believe people all to often forget histories most important lessons by saying well "It couldn't happen here, or happen now"
I don't know about you, but I just witnessed an inexperienced politician with very little significant or tangible accomplishments in the field of
writing laws and governing get elected to the President of the United States who came complete with his own symbolism flown on his airplane and
plastered on his podium. The last time I saw a politician come complete with his own symbolism, and building a personality cult was Hitler.
The last time someone like Hitler came to power was during a global economic crisis.
So no, I won't rule out the very real potential for danger that represents.
Do I want it to develop into what it has a real potential to develop into?
No, I sure don't.
Is this my way of disliking someone because their skin color or political party is not my own.
No it sure isn't, I live in a city where whites are the smalles minority, and I don't vote period for either party.
I am not looking for Republicans or white people or conservatives to save me.
I am just hoping and hopefully not against hope itself the guy who just showed up to town with his own symbolism, and cult of personality isn't going
to do the opposite of save me.
I think it pays to keep an open mind too all posibilities.
I think I would rather be wrong about something bad not happening, that to be wrong about something good happening that turned out to be bad.
In the first case you even though you were wrong you won, that is if you are big enough to believe that winning isn't about always being right.
In the second case if you were wrong, wow, you sure were wrong and often then its too late to do what would be right.
I believe in possitive thought and positive visualization. Let's face it though when it comes to some of histories charachters there just is not
enough redeeming elements for some of them to make that a possibility in their cases.
I can't see why the future would be different especially for those who choose to conveniently and optimistically forget the past.
I don't think anyone here on ATS is carrying out the conspiracies they talk about or wishing them on anyone. If and when someone is right it won't
be their fault that what ever happened, happened because of that.
Just a thought.
