Are Conspiracy Theorists (ATS) becoming relevant?

I heard at least three times yesterday on FOX News.

They must release a photo or they will never satisfy the Conspiracy Theorists.

Since ATS is the #1 Conspiracy site in all the world.

They must be talking about us. Here's a recent article on C.T.

Thanks to all the old-timers on this site for sticking it out.

I believe you guys are making a difference....Thanks

If I had more time, I'd do some kind of a check of the forums to see what percentage of new threads dont turn out to be news of fakes or misrepresented news or other simply incorrect information. It would be quite large.

Although asking people here to check out suspicious things is a good idea, it ruins the credibility of "conspiracy theorists" when the best in the word (ATS members) cant be even half arsed to do a google search on the topic before posting some crapola thats been posted before.

Conspiracy theorists are only relevent to the MSM when they want a quirky alternative point of view. No way would they come here to ATS to find any kind of truth. There is, in reality, very little of it here. Gems hidden in huge piles of poo.

I agree, just saying things like " We threw Osama Bin Ladens body into the sea " is plain bull.
There has to be clear evidence backing them up and not fabricated ones at that.
So many leaders of so many nations just keep the truth to themselves, no one is better than the other so we should share the information unless you want future generations to keep getting dumber and dumber.

Looks like they are trying to create a robotic slave race.

I surely hope We are! In fact, given the zealousness of putting out stuff - like the book calling Conspiracy "Theorists" (identifiers) "crazy," it would seem They want to marginalize Us as best They can.

Yet still, We are here and logical. (Also noted a recent tendency of some of the suspected spooks here begining the "CTists are crazy" line. Hyping up the idea that We lack rationality. I think it is an out and out assault.)

It would certainly appear that way. Destroying, or at least damaging, a story with good solid proof is a threat. That's the reason for internet censoring and similar acts. This is a great find as it validates a part of the population whose belief or thoughts simply challenge MSM and "conventional" thinking.

NO, what's happening is they are beating us to the punch.
You see, by acknowledging that this issue is one that is likely to raise a few eyebrows because of all of the holes in it,
by acknowledging, that there are going to be peopel who do not buy into this load of crap, they are effectively beating us to the punch and minimizing the issue before it even becomes an issue in the first place.

Quite an advanced tactic to be sure and yes, in a way it shows just how much the conspiracy movement is effecting change. Change that TPTB are afraid of and will stop at nothing to suppress.

Make sense???

Yep. Nail on the head IMO.



They figured out they have to be more persistent in telling us what is real, because the general trend is that people are starting to think for themselves.

It seems that people are turning to alternative news sources.

Seems like the people that once thought I was nuts.

Are now very interested in what we (conspiracy theorists) have to say.

I can see a day when the MSM will start to notice this site.

Maybe even want a comment from the site owners.

Either way, I think they are feeling the heat.

Every day I feel as if I am Alice tumbling down the rabbit hole. Sorry for the lame Matrix metaphor but it really rings true. After the recent Canadian elections that have the stench of rigged on them, I personally believe that the time for revolution has come. There seems to be a real external factor affecting the sovereignty of most nations. The multi-nationals seem to be influencing much more these days or is it really the banks? The Apathy of the general public seems to be growing stronger because all they want is to provide for their family. Sheeple in other words. However the myopic allure of lower taxes always draws a crowd for them. Gives them more to spend freely on their young ones for more useless crap that fuels the capitalist agenda and builds the bonds of love.

I had hoped to build a truly socialist society here in Canada, free from the avarice of the globalist bankers. But it appears that it is not to be. I will take my aspirations elsewhere. Not until I find a society that has a social conscience and moral fortitiude to accept the implications of what I have to offer will I reveal my hand. It is time we turned our back on those that oppress us and embrace the future. Oil has had over 100 years and is the past. A usefull commodity but as the engine of the economy no more. Until I see a real and genuine change in the attitude of the world concerning personal liability instead of shifting blame around to serve personal agenda will I ever release a new and better way to harness the power of the universe to the benefit of our species.

Really this is not a joke nor a scam or some kind of a put on. I am in a continuous state of revulsion by the vulgarities and barbarism of what I read every day in the news and feel that perhaps this planet and everything on it should fail as to not taint the universe with it's sickness. Make the world a better place than what you found it. Help those in need. End tyranny in all its forms. Sorry to rant so, but I am really despondent today because I have witnessed the death of freedom in my country all to deafening applause.

Thanks for the very well written reply. You are now among free thinkers.

We question everything. "No Trust"..."Just Verify".

I am serious about the impact of ATS and similar sites.

We are becoming less fringe, and more mainstream.

Hang in there. "The Truth" will win in the end.
