I'm sorry for sounding harsh, but there's so much noise on ATS these days that it's really discouraging. I thought we were different than other
places, but more and more, we're becoming just as silly and noisy as they are - and just as worthless.
Jadette, thanks for joining the team.
I say this same thing constantly and it always falls on deaf ears.
No one cares here anymore, no members (not enough anyway), no mods.
Maybe it's because there are so many "defenders" of this kind of nonsense that we cannot possibly see the truth in all the steamy piles of lies.
Someone posts an obvious hoax (or gag) and it gets pointed out (or proved hoax) and there are a dozen zealots screaming at the top of their lungs for
the "debunkers" to leave and to stop the "disinformation".
I think the saddest part is that they are so QUICK to believe based on nothing except a blog post.
They do not source the articles. They do not scrutinize the images, they just.. automatically believe.
It is mindboggling.
This thread participants should all be in agreement that this is a funny hoax, but it's not, there are a sad amount of believers even when presented
with evidence that is is pure bunk.
