Obi,
If I am a conspiracy theorist, you're a coincidence theorist. Which is more delusional? To believe that everything just happens, that people and institutions DO NOT work together to accomplish their goals and that NONE of these people and institutions have ideals that go against the greater good of humanity, or that there are?
Personally, I cannot believe that so many people are so asleep to the tyranny that is creeping into our once great Republic -- the delusional trance like state is truly befuddling. You're echoing the very same sentiments of people all over the world and through out history..."grow up, that would NEVER happen here..." Yes, you echo the sentiment of people that found themselves wrapped in small pox laced blanket, in a mass grave, or a gas chamber, buried in a rice paddy, or in a Siberian gulag.
If you're correct, and the US is NOT actually descending into tyranny, have you ever thought that perhaps the reason that it hasn't is because Americans are so well armed? Tyranny is far more common than freedom.
Your name calling and mockery is very telling. I understand that you feel very uncomfortable accepting the truth, and looking at the situation in a realistic manner. Ironically, you call ME childish, when it is your ilk that refuse to see what is right in front of you face, and is the historical norm.
People all over the world see exactly what I'm talking about, and they're laughing at us. Not because we're "conspiracy theorists" but because we believe the bullshit fed to us by our corporate controlled media, i.e., we're a nation of "coincidence believers."
