Conspiracy Movie

First 10 or 15 minutes I didn't really pay attention, but the rest was really insightful, and some of the stuff was mind blowing. Basically covered 3 parts: Religion, 9/11, and Federal Banking System of the US Gov.

LOL. I was exactly the opposite. I was intrigued for the first 30 minutes or so on the religion part, but the other stuff was eh... already knew about the banking system from Macro Econ.

I love this stuff!


And LOL, beer T-Rex

dunno if its gonna be any good but i might check it out later^^

thx

many of the "facts" presented in this movie have been unsubstantiated, etc but w/e give it a watch most people can see the huge facts discrepancy

I feel like I can't..

what i've learned from this is that i'm easy to manipulate.. I watched an episode of penn&teller: bullshit! about conspiracy theories that argued the exact opposite of this (about 9/11 at least) and felt 100% agreeing with it, but while watching this i felt sympathetic as well

particularly the first part about religion i really feel is correct

but anyways they can just present a bunch of facts (?) in these documentaries and I just utterly fail to see when they're facts and when they're not, and how can u? I feel like u need to study something for years to get the answer to some of these things for yourself

I feel the way me and the overwhelming majority of other people decide on wether something is factual or not is by comparing it to something else that they've learned before.. but that thing you've learned before could easily be a mistruth also

for example about the 9/11 stuff one side argues that "there were explosions" and "this isn't how a tower would collapse because of a fire, it's a controlled demolition" while the other side says "there's no evidence of any explosions" and "the fire interacts with all the flammable office chairs, computers etc"

how the hell am I supposed to know who is telling the truth? am i supposed to make enough money so I can rebuild the wtc and hire planes to fly into them and see what happens?

and this thing also uses the annoying technique of showing so many facts (?) in such short periods of time that u have no way to verify or even critically think about them.. it's more like "dude, did u know this? and this? and this? and that? and that? see, I can list a whole bunch of reasons why I'm right, I must be right!" I don't need 50 arguments in 30 seconds, if they disprove one of ur 50 arguments no one will believe u anymore anyway...

Jelle I think the answer to your problem is Reason and Logic.

Fioravanti (4 days ago) Show Hide +1 Poor comment Good comment Marked as spam Reply | Spam It's an attempt of the Central Bank(which is ruled by greedy bastards the same bastards responsible for the 1929's,WWI,WWII,911's, an others catastrophes) to in a long term build a one government world witch is equal to slavery.

I just looked up "amerro" on youtube and found a video, this was a comment I found there and it illustrates exactly what I mean

people (including me i admit i have the same tendency) are just super eager to accept this type of conspiracy theory stuff as the truth because they now feel more knowledgable than others and can't wait to show off their "knowledge".. this guy's comment makes it sound like he's studied the subject extensively but he really just watched one docufilm and has no real clue whatsoever

so fucking true!
exactly!
it would be better to take 3-4 points and actually do some work to prove them instead of presenting 1542534646 "facts" the way they did. A small, seriously approached truth is worth a million stupidly presented/argued over ones.
I don't know if what they say is true -or how much of it is, but the way they do it makes them lose credibility.

Penn and Teller BS is one of the stupidest shows on television. They are always biased and usually incorrect in their arguments. It's really stupid.

of course they're biased, they have a strong opinion.. isn't that the point? I like the show

join zeitgeist group on facebook those guys doin some crazy shit.

theres heaps discussions about it proving/disproving it and heaps of other videos

i sort of hated the parts where the guy said 'heres the similarities between jesus and ...' then he just insta scrolled through 2 pages of WTF and said 'the list goes on and on i dont think i need to really go over it' YES MOTHERFUCKER U do need to go over it

other than that though it was an enjoyable movie
thanks

decent movie
