    I believe so. I was looking for specific apology quotes.

    It doesn't mean he's wrong about globalism. It's just not a source I would be going to.

    Well that's interesting. I never thought he was psychotic. I thought he was capitalizing on and cornering the market of a multi million dollar industry.

    No disagreement here. But this book came out in August 2022 I think which means he's not exactly on the leading edge. More of capitalizing on a trend when there's a $44.9 million judgement to pay off... is something that a cynic would say.

    His words. And capitalzing on a trend is not exactly an unbiased source.

    Oh. I was referring to the conspiracy theory industry. He seems to be admitting his "mistake" . And yeah this book may help him pay his judgment.

    Some of us search to find what the truth is, and some search for things to prove what they want the truth to be. Questions about the author's credibility suggest subjective agenda, and a subjective reason to never indulge in the book. There is no need to read the book though, since the MSM can tell you everything you want to hear about it.

    Do false assumptions get you very far in life? So far you've told us that you read a book but haven't been able to actually tell us what is in the book. You've told us you're on this great quest for knowledge but haven't been able to relay any of that knowledge. You've implied that the MSM has massive credibility questions but you pretty much ignore the credibility questions of an individual who has admitted, at least twice, that they were wrong and/or suffered from some sort of psychosis because the media and corporations "lying so much."

    Based on what I've been asked to swallow and believe in this thread, where I've engaged in a quest for truth by the way, I've seen website after website and quote after quote of things that just do not pass any sort of credibility check when the whole of the evidence is piled together.

    FWIW I don't think the MSM has been anywhere near this book. For reasons that are just beyond imagining.

    Have an example? And I do wonder... If I'm only following MSM links, which I of course dispute, and you're only following "fringe" links don't we both have a narrow viewpoint?

    Sounds like you have a good idea of what you want the truth to be. You will not have any problems finding plenty to support it. Good luck.

    My post went so far over your head it's amazing. Almost like a world record over your head.

    the hopeful article goes on in the same vein and also mentions those poor souls that don't live in "our city".

    just because they are planning it and have the money and will to try and make it happen doesn't mean that anyone should try to point it out or work against it politically.
    It's those loose cannon populous that are the problem, or the muslims, or those immigrants, or minorities or the democrats or republicans or the Chinese or Putin.

    If we step back, it seems we all have common enemy pretending to be our friend trying to Shepard us all into a controlled technocracy.
    A couple of questions. Have they made any progress in the past 6 years? And am I to understand that the globalists are worse than the others or are the particular enemy that we need to focus on?

    This thread is really interesting.

    In this corner .... we have a conspiracy around every corner.

    And in the blue corner, we have "there's no slippery slope" and if you don't have concrete evidence it never happened and isn't going to.

    Addressing the latter first, the first time I heard the "there's no slippery slope" theory was when the left was conning society into accepting fags and not beating them up. Seems to me we've taken a long, deep dive down that nonexistent slope. We now have child mutilation, brainwashing, Peds have Rights, and loser males competing in Women's sports. This is "a", not "the" example. There are more than a few (hundred). Lest we not forget, blacks established this Nation and if the 1619 Project isn't lies compounded upon lies to create an alternate, fantasy reality to suit an agenda, I don't know what is.

    As to the former ... the boy who kept crying wolf got eaten by the wolf because people stopped listening and/or reacting.

    I also STILL can't understand why whatever "globalists" are trying to do is more important an issue than what our own damned government is doing right here, in our country, to us. Addressing individual symptoms does not cure the disease. If We, the People were in control of our government as we are supposed to be, the issue of what these global bureaucrats creating crises so they can sell us the cure is moot.

    A government of the people does business with anyone only if the People let it. Maybe we should be more worried about getting our own house in order rather than trying to control things beyond our reach.

    Predicting the future is quite difficult when you set dates. Or say "within x number of years"
