Re: The Psychology of Conspiracy Theorists

Thank you snooz for being objective and stating that it is your opinion. I used to feel exactly like you until the 9/11 explosions of the World Trade Center.

I used to deliver office supplies to that building every morning at 8:30 and spend 6 hours doing it. The building engineer once told me that the buildings were built/designed to SWAY IN THE WIND because the wind is SO STRONG at those extreme heights (even when weather is calm and sunny....NO WIND at ground level), the building sways back and forth at least 3 to 6 inches at the top (all skyscrapers are now built this way).

I saw the videos that showed puffs of smoke from thermite explosions. The single fact that the buildings fell STRAIGHT DOWN (1 was more than 100 stories tall, the other about 90 stories) is a distinction that everyone should have always made. That they fell STRAIGHT is the same as during the planned demolition of a building by a construction company using explosives.

I was once in a 70 story tall building in a wind/rain storm. I was on the 39th floor once in the waiting room and noticed small sqeaking sounds. I later told the maintenance engineers and they told me that it is a common problem because the building wasn't built right for high winds and that they often have twisted pipes, broken ceiling tiles, and even some cracked windows because the wind makes the building bend/sway.

Because wind is so strong at high elevations, it is a physical impossibility that the World Trade Towers could fall straight down without building demolition charges being placed in just the right spots on each floor.

The owner of building #7 (the third building we saw on the news reports) said that the #7 building was so damaged in the fire that they had to get the fire department to "PULL" it (meaning that they had to intentionally explode that building so it wouldn't become a safety hazard when cleaning up all the other debris......building #7 also fell STRAIGHT DOWN.

You can also look up "Operation Northwoods" at Wikipedia. That was a secret Pentagon plan during the 1960's meant to gain public support for war with Cuba by bombing buildings and commercial airliners in America and blaming it all on Cuba....President Kennedy never approved the plan.

Conspiracy theories are all about SCHEMES that politicians at very high levels in Washington, D.C. work out with the C.I.A. and other intelligence agencies in order to get their way (like war with Iraq in order to get the OIL).

You will also find that these secret schemes are often exaggerrarated and used by RELIGIONS and other groups that have their own agenda......like the headlines "Martial law beginning next month because the END IS NEAR and THE BEAST is here" (humanity likes fear and evil....SENSATIONAL fear), but these claims have been made for centuries.....


Always be weary of very long articles because they are intended to STIR YOUR EMOTIONS and make you MILITANT, but they usually still contain alot of truth (be wise). The following article is long but look at how many BOTCHED "doomsday prophecies" there have been and how far they go back (the rest of the article is simply MILITANT BIAS that serves the author's point of view (self serving bias, don't waste time reading all of it, it's all the same message)....

....BUT, secret scheme CONSPIRACIES are REAL and very often completely accurate (some miscommunication and rumor is possible, but unlikely if what is being said is "SCHEMING" and scandalous).

When a person says something that STIRS your EMOTIONS, their motive is often to simply CATCH YOUR ATTENTION so they can play BIGSHOT,....or they want to use you or get you to join their group (they are MILITANT/aggressive), but when they talk about a SCHEME AGAINST the people, it is likely that it is true. Be wise and know the telltale signs of deception and manipulation bias. Tweet
