Paid Disinformation Blogger Level: 14 CS Original | A guy on my Twitter was spamming Icke quotes this morning, including one charging that anyone who doesn't believe in secret reptilians ruling the world hasn't researched the volumes of "evidence" indicating that they exist. How exactly do we debunk Icketilians? This is one of those CTs that's so nutty it has absolutely no evidentiary support whatsoever. I mean, even 9/11 Twoofers are looking at stuff you can explain--"squibs," quotes taken out of context, "pull it" and bullshit like that. But there's nothing even remotely like that for Icketilians. Only thing I've ever seen is a boring YouTube video of George Bush (the first) giving a speech. The caption screeched that "you can see his eyes changing!" but of course you couldn't, it was just Bush giving a speech. The problem with Icketilians is that because there's nothing to hang your hat on, the believers call it "undebunkable." Well, in a way they're right--when the beginning and ending of the analysis is "there's not a shred of evidence to support it," which is something they won't accept under any circumstances, basically you have nothing else to argue about. Anyone have any strategies for dealing with Icketilian believers? | |||||

Level: 1 CS Original | No, it's very difficult. I used to be part of that forum and had to leave because I felt like I was going insane. The amount of negativity and fear on the forum is overwhelming, yet one of the things Icke says is that the Illuminati use fear to control the people. Right. And he himself uses the EXACT same tactic. I have personally looked into snake symbolism, since he thinks all the snake symbolism is proof of reptilians, and he has gotten it all so, so wrong. (You have to pity the fool) Snakes are a symbol of transformation, knowledge, life and rebirth and because of that they are found in a lot of different myths. (Just like birds, fishes, lions, horses and so on. Why don't horses rule the world? Why snakes?) We also have to keep in mind that one of the reasons he believes in reptilians is because he "saw" few of them when he did ayahuasca. Now, psychologically speaking, Icke was probably going through somekind of important life change at the time and when this is happening to a person, using drugs is not a good idea. You are speeding up the process and your body won't be able to handle it, thus you end up "frying" your system. The result of his experiments with drugs was that he became schizophrenic and paranoid, which is a classic side-effect of drugs like ayahuasca. That what he saw in a drug-haze was not real, if anything, he was being tricked by his own unconscious (or for the scientific lads here, his brain/hallucinations). Also, a lot of people tend to see dreams of snakes when they are going through big life changes, but that doesn't mean that snakes are in control! He connected the dots, but he didn't connect them correctly. None of this would be a problem if he didn't end up becoming a goddamn guru who is followed religiously by many. Icke also uses the bible as his SOURCE for a lot of the things he says. HELLO! The bible! I personally find Icke to be far more dangerous than Jones, because it's Icke that is behind the massive movement against the occult, symbolism and the rehashed satanic panic. (Vigilant Citizen, anybody? He supports the website.) He also happens to have a lot of followers that are devout Christians. This of course shouldn't be a suprise, considering that he is rehashing 80's satanic panic with a twist by claiming that the Clintons, Bush family, Obama and etc sacrifice children, shapeshift into reptilians and that they all get together to do satanic rituals. This is all very, very Christian stuff. I could go into more detail, but I feel like I have already said enough. | |||||

Level: 10 CS Original | From what I recall two main pieces of "evidnce" is: 1. Shapeshifing live on video OMG I have a link to a fun debunking of the first one by an expert in visual FX, as for the second Im sure you can find some examples of it yourself :) | |||||

Level: 5 CS Original | Impossible to debunk. Anything you use to debunk it, they will reject it. They have created a fantastic reality around themselves, and reject anything that threatens it. | |||||

Yeah, it's really shocking. Take for instance this video, which calls itself "PROOF of Reptilian Shapeshifters": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myCivgU5UMc Or this one, which is absolutely incontrovertible: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q2LQTyrE_c This is why trying to debunk Icketilians is fucking boring. You end up wasting time watching videos of people giving financial reports or political speeches, and then the CTs freeze-frame them to make them even more dull. | |||||

Paid Disinformation Blogger Level: 14 CS Original | Yes, Sil, it is. So far as I can tell that's the #1 video cited by Icketilian believers as "evidence." In the 90s, it was the video of Clinton saying, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky." Supposedly the bulge of a vein in his neck was "proof" that he was born on Zeta Reticuli. | |||||
