Subject: Encouraging Conspiratorial Absurdities
Date: Thursday, July 20, 2000 3:08 PM
"To protect their capacity to operate under the radar of popular
awareness, the establishment promotes and encourages the
impression of a linkage between themselves and an encyclopedia of
conspiratorial absurdities. In this way, many of the people who
might otherwise provide a reasoned account of the identities and
methods of the establishment are bamboozled, and wind up sounding
like, or in fact being, lunatics."
"In particular, stories of establishment involvement with
extraterrestrial visitors and paranormal phenomena thwart the
efforts of many to distinguish the real from the fictitious.
Chris Carter's ``X Files'' and ``Millennium'' are inheritors of a
prodigious legacy of programs that encourage this confusion. More
than simply acting as intellectual equivalents of radar chaffe
and heat flares, these programs deflect blame to an unaccountable
and incomprehensible ``other.'' Since this type of paranoid
conspiratorial pseudscience horror programming is naturally
appealing to some writers and producers, the establishment need
only covertly grease the path to assure some of this programming
is budgeted and distributed for maximum effect."

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
