When I read HYBRID's posts I can almost hear the looney tunes melody in the background.

Wait a minute, did this guy just admit to me the nwo was coming? And that no one will believe me? Well that's a lie, plenty believe the situation that is going on. You just don't realize what you have said. And then someone is trying to cover it up or change the remarks. I hope that you were just being funny or something, if not its just sad.

Why did you change your post, mr. pro-nwo? Why change now, you have shown me your true colors, and I think that I have gotten an insight into what is going on here at this site. I am not sure yet, but something funny is going on here.

Ahh, we have a classic here!

Since we don't embrace HYBRID's vision of the Great Big Conspiracy, we must be part of it!

Funny how attempts at dialogue with people who get their worldview retail from the paranoid conspiracism industry always seem to come down to that in the end.

Hey, does anybody think we could qualify for the coveted Paid Government Debunker award? I'm sure we could offer a competitive rate...

What I want to know is how you know that furshur changed his post. After all, he's just a regular user, like you, and the software will put an "edited" notice on the post automatically if it's been changed. Such notice is missing from the "Looney Tunes" post.

You claim that these symbols have been used for eons, yet the link from your opening post claims that

from the article:
Serious questions need to be asked about why the very platform of supposed representative government in the United States is adorned with tributes to Nazi symbols of absolute dictatorial power.

I find this to be a contradiction. I don't think the point of your links are self explanatory. Others have already pointed out that you need to explain in your own words what you want to convey.

What time is the "SFN azi-nay ascist-fay ub-clay eeting-may" this week? I don't want to miss another one.

What are the population break points for conspiracies?

The boundary condition break points seem obvious:


  • If only one person is involved it's not a conspiracy.

  • Two people is the minimum conspiracy.

  • If the entire population of the world is involved, then it's a "unanimity" and not a conspiracy.



What about the vast area in between? If more than 50% of the population is involved in a so-called conspiracy does it suddenly become the norm? Does it need to be a number greater than 50%? Two thirds majority perhaps?

Is there a lower threshhold of some sort? Perhaps at 5% of the population it graduates from a conspiracy to an opposition or an alternative or a (...grasps for words....) whatever.

HYBRID, you are a card.

I read those authors you suggested but I had to stop after reading about ten of them. My brain was going numb (maybe that's what's happened to you, you read one to many).

Thank's for nothing.

You might as well have told me to read Erik Von Daniken.

Even as a conspiracy theorist you are a failure.

Your ideas are half-baked and ill presented.

You really should try to get your ducks in a row.

There's a kangaroo loose in the top paddock.

Nothing is new about what you say, and you don't say it very well.

I put this in another thread, but since it is in the nature of trolls to stick to only the threads they have created ( because they love to be the centre of attention, don'tcha know) you probably haven't seen it:

Now that's a conspiracy theory.
