| I remember when I was first diagnosed with ASD in my late teens. I remember that one of my reactions was to tell myself, "well, I might have more social difficulties than most people, but at least I am more rational than a lot of them, not like all those dopes who are into pseudoscience and con... |

| With covid, although I am convinced the mainstream narrative is nonsense, and although the US Department of Defense was clearly involved in the 'pandemic response' (to a greater degree than most people realize, I think), I personally don't think it belongs with the Ukraine and Gaza wars as part of ... |

| We were told covid was caused by 'accident' and everyone believed it, now evidence is showing that to be false. Nope. Most scientists still believe that COVID is of purely natural origin, although the "lab leak hypothesis" cannot be ruled out. See the Wikipedia article on COVID-19 lab lea... |

I can see arguments both for and against it being relevant to the original discussion. My main issue is with whether the ... |

| I’ve learned enough over the years not to dismiss an idea just because I see a load of other people calling it a ‘conspiracy theory’. It’s true that there are some people who seem to see conspiracies and false flags and PSYOPs everywhere. But at the other end of the spectrum are people I find just a... |

| I made no claims, in fact I mentioned my initial doubts and ended my post acknowledging the very real possibility that the letter was faked. I merely asked a legitimate question; what if it isn't. How much do you truly know about the history of Albert Pike and his role in freemasonry or Giuseppe Ma... |

| "The United Nations defines genocide as a crime that involves the intent to destroy, in whole or in part , a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.” Israel has gone beyond mere genocidal rhetoric. By now, their actions can clearly be seen to be genocidal, according to the UN’s definition... |

| Opposition to uncontrolled immigration is inherently communist and anti-American. Remarkable. You don’t even support any controls on immigration at all. Even the most fanatical establishment neoliberals rarely come out with statements like this. I honestly think a large part of your open borders fa... |

My suspicions were confirmed before I even started reading the second paragraph. As soon as I saw that you had posted in this t... |

| Seriously, cyberdad, what is with all this special-pleading and what-aboutism you come out on the subject of Israel? I suppose I could understand it if you had Jewish ancestry. So do you? (I see you have made reference to FE's ancestry on this thread, so I should be able to ask you about yours.) |

| There seems to be two narratives in the foundation of the Jewish state of Israel. One is the role of British colonial administration and Zionist movement who permitted atrocities in the name of creating a Jewish state in Palestine. The other is the story of 1-2 million Jewish civilians who escaped ... |

| Whether Biden or Trump wins the next US election, you’re going to end up with a Zionist lickspittle as President anyway. Biden has been aiding and abetting Israel’s genocide against the Palestinians for the last 8 months. If Trump gets elected he will probably be even worse in this regard, and may w... |
