The Identification of "Conspiracy Theorist" has been twisted over the years to inherent stigma, The Conspiracy Theorist you describe as having fear and "a trigger happy threat detector" are the result of extremest conspiracy theorists who have molded your perception and allowed for this kind of stereotyping, but the majority of "Conspiracy theorists" are people who have decided to think for themselves and not allow for the mainstream media to do it for them. Anything against the social narrative is now seeing as a conspiracy theory.

Yes the Government is colluding against the people, any person with half a brain can see they not on the side of the people and perform nefarious actions while justifying these actions through Main Stream Media.

Yes, Nasa has secrets, its a space research institution for crying out loud, maybe there aren't aliens but why the fuck do they need the extreme security measures? they are either hiding alien life or they hiding projects which will shape the future of society and they not doing this for our benefit.

Yes Pizzagate can be real, there's enough information available to warrant an investigation at the very least, yet any real investigation would have too much impact on the privileged elite.

your blogs are normally quite informative and objective, but this is pretty contradictory to your usual way of writing so you've either had a bad day, just running out of ideas or you let your little sister blog for you today, either way I'll give you a pass as everyone is entitled to their own opinion even if those opinions can be contradictory to their previous selves.

Allow me to recommend a good book for you to read, it can definitely give you an interesting perspective on society and perhaps some new blogging ideas. Brave New World

Hope to see some better stuff in future.

thing is most don't think for themselves. they just pick another stream of media, not as popular. doesn't make it more valid though.

Why you would aliens even exist? Why would they even fall in the hands on NASA and not in some other's citizen's hands.

read it. too sensationalist and over-blown.

Ok I'm going to try this again... I just know that I'm not going to use the same wording I used before. lol

I disagree here, most conspiracy theorists that I encounter take various arguments and look for the common denominator to determine a more viable truth. again the most you talking of are the screamers and shouters who try to become famous for crazy beliefs, these are actually the few. You know as well as I do that the majority aren't the ones trying to influence the masses through fame.

Why you would aliens even exist? Why would they even fall in the hands on NASA and not in some other's citizen's hands.

I think you mean why would aliens even exist? well maybe they do, maybe they dont. the point I'm trying to make here is that NASA is an independant part of the federal government, that's a ludicrous amount of power to give a space research agency, which means they not just researching space, whatever they doing it's something they going through extreme measures to hide, even more so than the national government itself.

Why is this post not objective?

The very nature of your post is describing the stereotypical conspiracy theorist. Well a conspiracy theorist is by definition a person who holds a theory that explains an event or situation as the result of a secret plan by usually powerful people or groups. that would make me and you (and I can cite various blogs you've written previously) Conspiracy Theorists. and we are definitely not the stereotype you describe therefore using the work objective very loosely earlier your article is overly subjective.

read it. too sensationalist and over-blown.

I agree its sensationalist and over-blown, it's taking a the construct of society as we know it and applying a very thick layer of extremism, and I personally thought the author did a great job in demonstrating the problems we have with class identifications. I thought you'd enjoy it again judging by your previous writing, I was wrong. I personally loved the book but please don't go labeling me a sensationalist now. lol

I typed out a response and something happened to my response that it got deleted :(
sorry
@kyriacos did you manage to see it before it got deleted? really dont feel like typing it out again?

no man,

is ok. it happens

I agree with you @satoshimoto. ‘Conspiracy theorist’ is a handy label which can be slapped onto the box into which is placed anyone who dares to challenge the dominant narrative; with two words, classifying them as loony, and discrediting anything they have to say. Perhaps fewer nefarious deeds are being plotted behind the closed doors of the Westfields Marriott, but I’d venture to suggest that there are far more than are reported upon.

To quote Joseph Heller “Just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they aren’t after you.'
