No, you misunderstand. Both you and @Axeslinger made a comment or comments in relation to the visibility of TBR compared to Twitter or other sites.
What I am trying to tell you is that immersion into huge social media platforms can cause a process that ANY person's brain can't keep up with or compute.
There is a concerted effort on the part of the MSM, Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia, etc. to only allow content that fits their rules. But no one knows what those rules really are.
It is a part of this thread to suggest those media platforms are using or will figure out how to sway people's minds to "their" way of thinking.
I should keep files like @Bigun does. Too many things going down a bottomless rabbit hole never to be seen again. Something I noticed ten or twelve years ago researching info on a subject that is now taboo. Posting over at TOS.
I am replying on this thread to comments made on other threads I deem relevant.
Mind my own business? Don't post comments anywhere if you think a reply is some sort of attack.
I don’t think it’s an attack, but when people get caught up in conspiracy stuff, they tend to not take no for an answer when others say they’re not interested. That was about the fourth time you’ve had one of your bad periods and pinged me for a rebuke of some kind. I have no idea why, but I didn’t respond before. But I wasn’t in the mood for the conspiracy shilling. That hasn’t changed.
You say mass media causes psychosis. Who knows, probably. Sealing yourself up in a bubble can have the same effect. Going down internet rabbit holes and immersing yourself in conspiracies absolutely causes psychosis.
You need proof? Go on Twitter (yeah I know) and try to have a reasonable conversation with anyone in the Qanon tags. Hillary Clinton harvests adrenochrome from infants’ glands and snorts it to get high, then bathes in their blood and eats their bodies for dinner. It’s all recycled Protocols of the Elders of Zion garbage—anti-semitism of the worst kind is rife in Qanon land. They’ll tell you about the synagogue of Satan. Also that JFK Jr. has been alive all along and is hiding out to help Trump save the world. Yesterday a video turned up in my feed—a woman ranting that Obama ordered 65,000 hot dogs delivered to the White House, only they weren’t hot dogs because everyone knows that’s pedophile code for children.
Just a couple of days ago, Q let his fans know that soon he’ll reveal information about a secret race of reptilian humanoid hybrids who exist on earth. They’ll lap it up and they won’t question it. I might consider them pathetic, but it’s very hard to feel any sympathy for (supposed) thinking adults who even entertain such insanity, much less fall headlong into it.
It’s a crazy, insane cult, but I wouldn’t care if it weren’t so prevalent. Go look at the line outside Trump’s last rally. It was filled with people wearing Q shirts. When Trump used his hands, they said he was tracing a Q in the air as coded messages. Yesterday the Twitter account for the Unplanned movie (pro-life) tweeted out Q crap. This lunatic shit is in danger of taking over the right. It’s concerning. You aren’t aware because you believe in staying in a safe little bubble.
The shyster, PrayingMedic, who’s likely behind it, is making out selling “healing classesâ€. And books instructing you on astral projection (pure occultism) and how you can fly to the heavenly court and pick out your angel lawyer to argue your case before God. If you think I’m making it up, just google. I saw a video of the guy being interviewed by that nut Bill Mitchell. His eyes were darting all over the place every time he was asked a question—a classic sign of someone lying his ass off. He finished up with a threat to doxx people who challenge Q.
Meanwhile his cult members continue to isolate themselves and drive away their families so that the only ones left to them are fellow cult members in cyberspace. They spend their time chasing down make work clues to nothing, hoping for mass executions in the streets, and making bad-quality memes, like the kind you see at TOS, because Q told them memes are warfare. None of the BS deadlines ever pan out, but that doesn’t matter. They’re too invested. And that’s how cults work.
Personally? I think we’re being softened up. I think it really got started with the slavish devotion the left had for Obama, and continued with the same on the right for Trump. Now you see large numbers buying into stuff so deranged it wouldn’t make a good movie. You know how the Bible says even the elect will be deceived? If Obama was godlike, and Trump a global savior from nightmare evildoers, what do you think will happen when the AntiChrist shows up? People will snap to and fall right in line.
So when I see this crazy shit taking over, I have zero patience with it. You really should be careful, Fred. Fear is the driving force that causes people to withdraw from the world into their safe shell. It’s the reason they magnify politicians into supernatural demons and larger than life heroes who will save them. You’re headed toward a dark place that’s not healthy. God is still in control.
