It's all a bunch of bullshit and once again they can't get their story straight. The msm has not picked this up yet, but they might have to now. How can anyone look the other way at this point. Another fucking Benghazi type cover up.

I've been kinda wondering if Clif High's Web Bot prediction of just what you describe here Starla would ever pan out.


getting there...

a tipping point in which about half of the masses see a media fabrication that can't be denied...the specifics escape me, but his Web Bot thing calculates a sea change of awareness to how manipulative the media has been.

Aren't you being manipulated into believing something random sourceless blogs have told you?

"The media" manipulation.

Yes, there have been major fuck ups, including AP, CNN, NBC. So why keep watching that shit?
It's not like you couldn't just read Reuters for example, if you'd really want to avoid "manipulation", but it's more convenient to construct a theory how and why someone behind the curtain is pulling the strings to mess with you instead to just stick to credible sources and have the patience to wait for confirmed info.

If you want "news" on such a topic every fucking hour - guess what, you'll get a mess of fabricated bullshit, what a surprise.

i'll try to say it a different way for an umpteenth time...


I'll believe anything if its true. My personal beliefs however are virtually irrelevant to the BIG T.


so your left with critical analysis on a platform of suspension of disbelief.



Clif High's track record is mehhhh...nothing like the Mayan's, but I digress...


that's not to say the Web Bot isn't intriguing. He seems to be on the leading edge of virtual mind at least. I give him that much.

I actually havent followed them in a while, but his interviews were entertaining enough while working out. his charts did basically seem like timewave zero ripoffs

i read a blog by one of terrance mckenna's friends and she basically admitted he thought timewave zero was bullshit but it paid the bills. i was really into it until i looked at the graphs covering 9/11 and it didn't come up with anything.

and of course nothing seemed to happen in 2012.

I cant remember ever seeing a show or intro for a show that didnt have an "OMG look at what repubs are doing now" story. I see/hear show intros/segments at least a couple times a week. Im exposed more to her than Greenwald, now that I think about it.

never did I say "only". But I will say mainly.

greenwald, like you, allows the perfect to be the enemy of the good. i generally am ok with that, but not in election season. because the only way to change what you want to change is via a more liberal court. you know that, and greenwald knows that, but you both prefer to be dickheads in order to feel better.

and maddow has railed against obama plenty of times, so i'm not sure why you just want to toe the party line and hate anyone who recommends a particular party.

The opinions expressed in the preceding post are the views of the individual and do not necessarily reflect the views and motivations of the brilliant Future Boy and the not so bad himself, Glenn Greenwald.
