9/11 Debate

[LP]

The fact that they use this to explain their son's autism disorder is another tenuous link, but not one completely without foundation, and belittling their perspective serves only to cast judgement on them, and not understand them.

Ultimately, we get lied to a lot by governments.  THEY are the ones that deserve to be questioned, and we should never shout down someone questioning the official line, because they are the ones that might have been the ones to call out the holocaust, but too many people might have told them that they were crazy, and there is no way that the mass extermination of people could be occurring in their own backyard.

Btw., What they might suffer from is confirmation bias, not a conspiracy at all, so nobody is really belittling them!

In regards to the confirmation bias, the problem is the tenuous links from a confirmation bias aren't a foundation for a cause at all, the absence of evidence isn't confirmation of a great conspiracy or a real world effect. It's just correlation. The problem is humans do not weigh these effects evenly, just like we make a big deal about someone getting ill in correlation to receiving a vaccine, while ignoring the vast bulk who do not.

Science and medicine doesn't ignore those who get ill from a vaccine shot, they investigate them, it's not a cover up.

That "They" is interesting, in the context you use it it means "us and them", the trouble is when the "they" is government the them is really us, the bulk of the government are ordinary Jills and Joes going about the daily grind. The biggest employer in the land. Like health industry workers, which in the context that you use it "they" would be all part of the "they", doesn't that include yourself?

Most conspiracies and conspiracists are fundamentally are looking for someone to blame, ironically in the 9/11 stuff it seems the dead blokes who hijacked the planes and Osama bin Laden aren't enough, they want to blame somebody living! They seem to want revenge, and a sacrifice.

I do wonder how much Daesh manipulate these forums, the Australian who was arrested was a specialist in social media and communications studies, someone who made a career from digital social influence.
