 Genuine American Monster Level: 70 CS Original | It appears that Facebook has converted our group to the new group format, which allows any member to both invite and approve new members to the group. The wall this morning looks like a bunch of Internet anarchists barfed all over it. I turned that "feature" off, so hopefully things will return to normal soon. | |||||

 Paid Disinformation Blogger Level: 14 CS Original | I saw some of them but didn't spend long browsing it. Did we have a lot of people with "Zeitgeist" as their middle name? | |||||

Genuine American Monster Level: 70 CS Original | I guess some crazy shitbag had been approved, but they never posted anything to attract attention to themselves. When the group conversion went through, they immediately invited a bunch of their crazy friends to join. Which sort of makes me wonder how long they've been waiting. | |||||

 Level: 0 | I wonder though, what good is the group if it only allows people that are already in agreement with what the group has to say? it'd be good to have some nutjobs out there that join it and perhaps learn something in the group? | |||||

Genuine American Monster Level: 70 CS Original | I'm not interested in debunking the same YouTube videos over and over and over and over again. If you don't like the group then leave. It took hours to clean up the mess they left. Did you clean it up? No, I thought not. If you want to argue with Truthers, go join a Truther group. | |||||

Genuine American Monster Level: 70 CS Original | Debating with nutters is a waste of time, the discussion never ends because they keep moving the goal posts. | |||||

Level: 4 CS Original | Debunking stuff for them seems like a waste of time. Teaching them how to think critically from the start, however, doesn't. Teach a man how to fish, and he'll fish and shit or whatever | |||||

Genuine American Monster Level: 70 CS Original | If they could think critically from the start they wouldn't be conspiracy theorists. If you want to teach conspiracy theorists how to think critically, join a conspiracy theory group and go nuts. I doubt you will have much luck. People only stop believing in conspiracy theories when they want to. | |||||
