      in all history only 3 steel framed skyscrapers have collapsed due to fire…. The 3 WTC towers on 9/11. Other similar structures burnt for 28+ hours and remained intact. One of the 3 WTC towers wasn’t even supposedly hit by anything- it just spontaneously collapsed because of a fire but that’s never happened before or after 9/11.
      Trained pilots were unable to replicate the flight path, turn and collision (its like landing a jumbo jet, at full speed, on an aircraft carrier). How did pilots with no jumbo jet experience manage what trained pilots couldn’t?
      The towers fell at free fall speed. That is only possible if you knock the bottom out first (as in controlled demolition). If the towers had really collapsed due to impact and then fire they would have “pancaked” where each floor collapses on the floor beneath sequentially which would take 40+ seconds, not less than 10 seconds.
      Every other plane crash you get identifiable plane debris, even if it nosedives full speed into the ground. How come there was no visible plane debris?
      Plane wings are relatively fragile (they have to be light weight). How did plane wings slice through 20+ steel beams thicker than a man and then just disintegrate.
      There’s loads of evidence that conclusively proves that the official story cannot possibly be the truth. I’m not saying I know what happened but I know what didn’t happen because the official story defies logic, science, engineering, witness testimony and common sense.

Yes it did, a fuel loaded jet IS a missile! To claim that that plane was flown out to sea & crashed & a missile was then launched at the pentagon is beyond ridiculous! Why would you waste a perfectly good missile, in the form of a plane, that you already have launched & available to hit the building?

      ​@@tigerkahlua1609 not always about pay outs, there's other motivations too. Australian government's been quite entertaining on covid. Chief medical officer announced one person in palliative care for cancer had tested positive for covid & therefore was included in the covid death numbers at a press conference. Press savaged her over it as a "covid death" & she was absolutely blunt on her contempt for the situation, but was also clear that this was how deaths were being counted internationally & therefore yes, the person in palliative care, expected to live no longer than she had, but testing positive to covid was now being included in Australia's covid death toll. She did that many more times too, detailing what the person had really died of (within what the family were willing to disclose to the public) but again, making it clear that since certain countries were doing this, Australia had to follow or have it's covid death numbers excluded from International comparisons & be seen as having an extraordinarily low death toll only because of failing to count covid deaths as covid & we wanted our numbers to be seen as reputable globally. That was just under 10,000 deaths of people WITH covid in the first 2 years btw, in a population of 25 million. After that point we became the only country to continue testing every person who died for covid so as to accurately put them into our covid death toll, so really not much point giving the death toll beyond that point (even before that we were one of the only countries who were actually recording every death & case accurately & seeing unexplained & excess death tolls DROPPING instead of rising, like they did in the vast majority of the western world).
      No payments involved in any of this though, totally different reasons

      Conspiracy theorists are made to look like schizophrenics doing weird stuff like wearing tin foil hats. Washington, Hollywood, the elite, the media, etc. all portray us as mentally ill. Yes, conspiracy theories DO attract people with paranoid schizophrenia, which affirms the “paranoid” stereotypes to anyone that blindly accepts the media’s words.
      I also believe there are absurd conspiracy theories that are created solely for “the powers that be” to paint legitimate conspiracy theories as absurd and just crazy talk from fantasy land.
      The elite are scared of those of us that question everything. Authority doesn’t want to be questioned. Look into the sources of your information, research those sources. Do those sources use propaganda, paranoia, or bias as the way to report information? Who’s funding these sources? What are their agendas? (Keep digging)
      Some of us can’t be fooled, and that’s a threat - to those that rely on everyone to believe everything that’s being said.

      This is a false statement. Sugar is not more addictive than cocaine. When lab rats were exposed to sugary foods they shared the food.

    If I may say so; she did an excellent job as the president’s proxy.

    4:38 10:00 I can't help but feel that the main storyline in season Seven's burn notice is like a mildly watered down depiction of that for if anyone paid attention to that story arc The person that was supposed to be the "main antagonist" James Kendrick really wasn't a bad guy for he created a network of spies that were going after criminals that agencies like MI6 and CIA were helping to get new lives and identities such as the warlord from the Bruce Willis movie tears of the sun which was putting him and his network in direct competition with the CIA making them look bad which is why they were labeling them as "terrorists" as well as putting pressure on Michael Weston's handler so badly for him and his team to take the group out, the writing on that show was just forcing the characters to view James as the enemy such as when he executed a member of his own team for abandoning Fi to burn alive in a fire (Something we all knew Michael would have done if he had gotten the chance mind you and we wouldn't have blamed him for it because we the audience would have agreed with it) Yet it had Jesse, Sam and Fiona outraged to the point where they were claiming he was such a bad influence on Michael and was trying to force the audience into viewing the James Kendrick character as such to the point he was coming off as hypocritical for think about it for a second he started his network on the promise that he would never EVER harm the innocent after slaughtering his entire unit that was going to murder a small village of innocent men, women and children and YET he encourages tactics that entails threatening and possibly kill a target's family!? Come on now make it make sense, That's why I will never view the depiction of the CIA in a positive light no matter what they're put into whether it's a film like mission impossible or a TV show like alias!💯😁😉👍

    Roswell was NOT a balloon. The guy who was first on the scene was a highly decorated US Army officer who was trained to release Mogul balloons. If that's what it was, he would have just said nothing and carted the pieces away. As it happens, he took samples home to his children because they were like nothing he'd ever seen before. The balloon story was the cover story. What crashed there has been definitively proven to have been a craft, not a balloon.

    So the alien crash thing...My gram worked at the pentagon after WW2, she said not the famous crash but a few years later, closer to 1950 there was an actual crash in the area and she was in a room and the machine went crazy, it was written in code and she started translating it and then it went off and the room next to her she could hear the machine go off in there. She had pretty high clearance but not enough to get more details other than an alien space ship crashed, 2 aliens died on impact and another got out, wandered around and collapsed to the ground. She said the description was very stereotypical, the were about 5ft tall and green, no outward genitalia and they had big eyes and long fingers, she said they had suction cup like finger tips. whatever else happened she didn't get to read it but that was a lot. she knew a lot of things that she said she couldn't talk about as it was classified but that was something where she was like, people talk about it enough I don't care at this point. I also pointed out that she was in her 70's what were they going to do, throw her in jail? she still didn't want to tell me other things...so I think the story is another cover up to keep people from freaking out. she said, a person is intelligent but people are stupid. One person can handle the truth but humans en mass can't. They freak out too much...so they keep things from us.

      Actually, it was bigger then just that. A LOT of history is ignored when it comes to the Civil Rights Movement. Beginning in the late 40s and ESPECIALLY the 1950s, the movement had a HUGE public fracturing when musician Paul Robeson and longtime activist WEB Dubois openly embraced Communism, urged blacks to refuse to ever fight the Soviet Union, and traveled to Moscow and Beijing (I believe Dubois even met Mao Zedong personally). Moderate civil rights leaders like Roy Wilkins of the NAACP were FURIOUS and publicly denounced them, breaking the united front of the movement (MLB legend Jackie Robinson even called them ridiculous). What made this even uglier is that the Korean War happened around this time, meaning the Communists were enemy numero uno for countless Americans, White, Asian and even to many Blacks. Eventually the Wilkins-Robeson feud became so nasty that the NAACP worked with the US government to distribute leaflets in Africa IIRC urging the people to reject Robeson's Marxist activism. Naturally, white supremacists had a field day with this and labeled all the civil rights leaders Communists. It was for years a PR nightmare for folks like Wilkins, MLK and James Baldwin (who also rejected the Communist faction). Basically, while there was significant slander, there was none the less real reason that the activists were spied on. And, it's also PARTIALLY why the Civil Rights Movement took so long and was so chaotic: lack of shared vision.

  • @agm5424

    To the willfully ignorant a "conspiracy theorist" is deliberately misused as a synonym to "someone who doesn't blindly and completely believe the ruling class/government like I/we do". And a "conspiracy theory" is, to them, a synonym of "any idea that portrays the ruling class/state in a bad light". But because neither of those aren't exactly illogical, especially when looking at history, they use words like "conspiracy" as a euphemism.
    The ironic thing is is that a conspiracy/people conspiring, especially people in power, isn't illogical either. Conspiracy literally means a group of people (con-) working together to achieve/make real a commonly shared goal/aspiration (-spiracy/aspire) and history is full of them, of both the clandestine type and mundane type.
