It’s no wonder more people than ever are skeptical of public health organizations and mainstream experts who claim to possess the final word on health and nutrition, when there is so much proof that information has been censored and even doctored in order to push a certain message that will help corporations like Procter & Gamble become richer and richer.
Like… Just wait till you hear about sugar and the lies around that.
Kinda have mixed feelings about this. Those who are innocent know that they are on the list at the cost of their SSN or national ID. Bit of a mixed blessing there.
Also, a bunch of truly bad actors will be compromised. Maybe that’s good?
Early last year, while working on the next entry in the Life Is Strange franchise, a few developers at Deck Nine stumbled upon something that didn’t belong in their game: Nazi symbols....
I believe that they had enough information to have prevented it and failed to do so to the extent that it was intentional or that it was profoundly negligent. I remember investigations afterwards turning up some troubling evidence.
Consider this too… If Japan is a known aggressor, and you want to be prepared, why do you keep your pacific fleet in a state of anything less than high alert?
In both cases, the events did much to motivate a nation to support a war.
I don’t believe that anyone (least of all myself) in the general public will ever have all the answers, but the manufacture of consent is a dark business. If you don’t have trust issues, you should.
Another prime example is government agencies manufacturing the drug epidemic and using the proceeds to fund black ops.
So that’s the long answer, the short answer is that I don’t have enough faith to believe 100% that they weren’t. The track record isn’t stellar and while it’s clear they didn’t pull the trigger, there are numerous inconsistencies.
I do believe that jet fuel along with the contents of the building can and does melt steel beams. Lol.
None of which is meant to convince anyone, rather to illustrate a lack of trust.
No. My memory suits me fine and I couldn’t care less whether I convince anyone. I’m expressing my distrust and explaining why, not writing an essay. I think your expectations are a bit high for a frustrated diatribe written by an absolute stranger while watching TV. 😁
Regardless, if you want to trust the government, have at it. Feel free to consider me as just another geriatric fool shouting at clouds.
At the very least both incidents were used to manufacture consent in a devious way, in the twin towers case to start a war that is even now considered to be completely unjustifiable. Consider Joe biden’s advice to Benjamin netanyahu “Don’t make the same mistake we did” no doubt referring to our reaction to the destruction of the towers and his subsequent beating of the war drums.
In the case of Pearl harbor, even if there was some sort of conspiracy behind just negligence, it was a justified act to involve the country in a war that would otherwise have reached our doorstep regardless.
I do sincerely hope you have a pleasant day. Take care internet stranger 😁
What was the where now? I don’t think you can amplify with a lens… Do you mean lens? I’m pretty sure that’s not how that technology works. I’m very confused as to what you’re trying to say!
Edit: perhaps I didn’t hear you over this really loud water, hombre.
