Let's say Alex Jones, David Icke (aka Jew Hater), and others are all wrong. Let's say there isn't a new world order. Let's say everything bad that happend happend, just because for one reason or another (coincendentally, earthquakes and volcanoes happening)is just because that's how things are. Let's say, fine are government is really corrupt and there aren't any secret cabals or anything.

Now what?

I'll get to those questions at some later day, however, I think it's impolite to do so because of the current threads now.

But my question is, let's say it happends just because bad things happend.

What do I do know?

"What do I do know? "

Become a vulcanologist? I don't know, like Ed said... there are so many real issues to deal with. Take your pick.

Danny,

I do a lot of volunteer work, that helps real people who have real problems. Interestingly enough, people who need help don't give a damn about the NWO or anything else, because starving, child care, medical care, etc is far more important to them.

You can go to the United Way, Salvation Army (religious), various Veterans things, it's endless, just google "volunteer +yourcity" or something.

Helping people in the real world is far more fulfilling, as you're making a difference, while bitching and moaning on the Internet about what "secrets" are out there accomplishes dick. That's why when I turn off my computer, the truth movement, Alex Jones, etc. all cease to exist, however real problems still do exist and there are real people out there, such as myself and millions of others, who work to try to make things better.

Yes, it's a lot more difficult than spreading videos and so forth, but that's how real problems are.

There's a series of videos called "The Power of Nightmares", you should check it out, it's on google video, I believe there are three in all. If someone has links, please post them in this topic. It'll give you a good idea of why things are the way they are, and it makes a lot more sense then tons of people working in the dark that nobody but people on the Internet know exist.

"This was meant as an hypothetical situation. "

Well thankfully, your "hypothetical situation" is what we call reality.

"I doubt the people involve within the movement would just pull this stuff out of the air just to "scare" people."

There are other reasons. Perhaps they know that fear = profits. Perhaps they truly believe in all the stuff they talk about, maybe it's a little of both.

I don't know why Danny made this post, it's abundantly clear from his other posts since he started this thread that he doesn't give a shit about anyone else and thinks handing out videos is tantamount to doing a damn thing for anyone else. He doesn't seem to realize how blind he is to Alex Jones and that it really is his religion and Jones is his Messiah.

When handing out videos of utter bullshit helps a single person accomplish anything ever, I'll be waiting for a post on that Danny.

I respectfully, disagree. I doubt the people involve within the movement would just pull this stuff out of the air just to "scare" people. They do it because sitting silent would be the worst thing.

I don't claim to know the motives of leaders like Alex Jones, and I disagree with the tendency of some debunkers to jump to conclusions about their motives.

However, even if they have the best of intentions, this doesn't mean that their beliefs are correct.

Even Hitler may have had the best of intentions. A lot of people sincerely believed in an evil, massive Jewish conspiracy. This doesn't mean they were correct. The Nazis are a good example of what can go wrong when a lot of people hold false conspiratorial beliefs.

Grand conspiracy ideologies typically target a perceived evil elite. (Evil Jews, evil atheists, evil Pagans, New Agers, occultists, Satanists, etc.) But what can easily end up happening is that a lot of non-elite people get hurt.
