If you're into the nwo stuff--I find it very hard to believe you don't really know anything about that financial stuff--I mean why use the money reference? If that's indeed the case--I'd say there's a real good chance I know Far more than you on these topics as it turns out. Being skeptical of narratives shouldn't stop at just the official ones imo. There's plenty of good reasons to question a lot of the conspiracy narratives as well.
You also seem to think I'm coming at you or arguing with you or something--and that's really not the case at all. I'm just having a conversation. Do you really think I would've spent all that time reading about that stuff if I had zero interest in it at all??
First you're absolutely right that we should be skeptical of a lot of conspiracy narratives. The relevant concept is called "muddying the waters" and there has been a lot of that that has taken place. So we should be skeptical of a lot but not so skeptical that we reject the idea of ever being able to reach any sort of conclusions about anything either.
And I apologize for taking somewhat of a defensive posture with you but in our previous conversations you basically said that anti-semitism lies at the bottom of every conspiracy theory and I accused you of being bigoted towards conspiracy theorists--so I'm still going off of that a little but then found it odd how much conspiracy ideas you've integrated into your own thinking.
My criticisms of you is that you still seem to be very much caught up in the left vs right, liberal vs conservative style thinking that plagues discourse. And for me that was the first thing to go after I understood just a little bit of what is happening. A proper understanding of 9/11 even should be enough to do away with any notions that the Republicans and Democrats represent different factions (of the elites or whatever) that are fighting each other for control. But I definitely enjoy conversing with you and no doubt there are many aspects of things with which you have a better understanding than me.
But as far as the "NWO" stuff. That is one of those things where I think a lot of muddying of waters has taken place. It doesn't mean that I don't think topics related to finance aren't a factor--they certainly are. But I don't necessarily find things like that interesting either.
