Here's the conclusion I have reached: you are an agent for some shadowy government organization and you have crafted this thread to strengthen the stereotype that most conspiracy theorists are usually mentally ill to some degree and can never balance their social activity.

Sounds like he has an extreme case of paranoia , which can happen to people who get very involved with conspiracy theories. I hope he gets a grasp on reality, and those who know him and care, help him get out of this paranoia.
IMHO gabby2011 nailed it. Party boy has paranoia to the point of needing professional help. I'm well aware psychiatry is not popular on ATS - everyone is entitled to their opinion. From life experience I do feel counseling would do that fellow much good. It's terrible going through life with one's head bolted on crooked. I hope that man gets help, and I say "good luck" to his girlfriend, she's a good sport for being able to deal.

80 % what that guy says is true. This man has lived in this truth that it causes an mental isolation. caused by the realization that the people around him are living in an illusion and act like cattle. He sees himself as part of it.
After months and years living with this knowledge, the isolation creeps in your mind/body and soul. You are determinant to stay living in the truth. Yet that particular stance, makes you extreme.
When you give that guy a platform in a drunken state, like the person from the OP has done. You might get an effect where he expresses his lives frustration on a matter, that causes more isolation.
In the end everybody will know he was right, and people wil listen to him. As soon as that happens, that person will be fine.
You can see he overreacts by being suspicious to much. Like saying you are CIA etc. He is alone.. in his way of thinking. Give him alcohol, and a platform to speak. This is highly likely to happen.
He destroys himself more, by choosing to live in the truth.
Food is being poison, stuff is being sprayed in the air and secret society do exist. etc etc.
95% of the world is only interested in their own life, and running after money. The one thing that keeps the beast alive. At the end people will respect him, might even feel sorry for him. What he speaks is what he feels, that aint pretty for him right now.
I would say to that conspiracy man. Do the opposite of what you feel. If you are frustrated, do something extreme like go karting. Release bad energy.edit on 4-7-2011 by TribeOfManyColours because: (no reason given)edit on 4-7-2011 by TribeOfManyColours because: (no reason given)

Oh, wait, I'm a girl not man.
Wish I was there. I would like so led him on I was CIA or FBI. Just to see how much more nuts he could go
The idea of egging him on was far from my mind, but I get what you are saying.
Wild claims, cold stares, clenching fists and neck stretching seemed like enough to me.
Like I said It got physical at one point and it took 3 people to diffuse.
I had guy grab me by throat because, I beat him at pool. God forbid if a woman beats a man at a pool game. People saw it, did nothing about it. Doesn't matter what you do. But, if it was me. I would egged him on, just to see his reaction about it.edit on 3-7-2011 by Manhater because: (no reason given)
