conspiracy- a secret agreement to do an unlawful or wrongful acttheory- the analysis of a set of facts in their relation to one anothersIt's time that we stand up and take pride in being conspiracy theorists!www.ConspiracyTheoristClothing.comOn Aug 5, 2006, at 4:48 AM, flw2 wrote:-Caveat Lector-Conspiracies occur every day in every place. A conspiracy is merely two or more people working towards a common goal. Where it crosses the line from a merely a joint effort to a 'conspiracy' - entails an effort to achieve (supposedly) nefarious or illegal ends. The US govt is the worlds greatest conspiracy theorist. Thousands of US citizens are accused by the govt every year of committing 'conspiracies' - whether it be selling drugs (i.e. govt unapproved substances), not paying taxes, or the latest - "terrorism." When govt officials engage in 'conspiracy' - it generally involves secret election campaign strategies, secretive 'National Security' efforts for 'black' operations, or behind-the-scenes efforts to enrich corporate political sponsors by manipulating governmental policy. Those that claim there are no conspiracies - or that important events never come about through 'conspiracies' - are just plain foolish or victims of semantic manipulation. When citizens work together to expose establishment behind the scenes manipulation of governmental power to further secret goals - this becomes a threat to the power structure. The reason the goals are secret is simply that the goals are unpopular and expose the conspirators to political or legal damage. Using the establishment's pervasive influence over the corporate media (and their journalist minions) those who attempt to expose such secretive manipulations are quickly branded 'conspiracy theorists.' I found it fascinating that BEFORE the public release of Stone's JFK - dozens of high profile establishment columnists, 'pundits' and other corporate shills began attacking Stone - calling Stone a 'conspiracy theorist' and a danger to the public. Why such an orchestrated effort to attack what was merely Hollywood entertainment? The 'facts' revealed in the movie were unimportant. What was apparently disturbing was a mass market popular entertainment suggesting those in control might actually have secret agendas to manipulate events. 'Conspiracy Theorist' - a very useful label to instantly destroy the credibility of those who attempt to expose establishment manipulations.fl.ctrl.org DECLARATION DISCLAIMER == CTRL is a discussion informational exchange list.
