He's been talking about common sense with certified nutjob Matt Le Tissier. What a meeting of minds.

Because whatever link I post, whatever source I post, if it isn’t from one of your preferred sources which will happen to be part of the TNI who all follow each others tails, then it will be ridiculed, and dismissed as ‘disinformation’ ‘conspiracy theorists’ call it what you will. Just remember that the covid lab leak theory was once labelled as such. But if you really want to open your mind, watching the ‘died suddenly’ documentary on rumble is a good starting point as well as researching what the inventor of the mRNA technology has to say about them.

I think he's lost the plot completely if he's buddying around with Le Tissier.

He doesn't have a mainstream opinion that's the problem & he says things the mainstream don't agree with. Some stuff he actually says makes sense when you think about it but some people just want to believe what they are told & are incapable of thinking for themselves or accepting alternative opinions.

5 mins in

• Box ticking. We need the best RB, LM to make a team function nit just box ticking.

This doesn’t happen

• We need “experts” at co commentating. There was an incident when Ross Barkley blatantly pushed (arm jesters) a Luton player in the back and that little “nudge”. Which one Joey, that’s 2 different things. Talks about the female saying it’s clever.

Men co comms say that too. Experts co comms like who?? Robbie Savage an expert? Ally McCoist, Jamie Redknapp?

It isn't that difficult to find out if people are prepared to look. Another thing is that Gates is a psychopathic eugenicst. People prefer to believe what they see on the Gates funded BBC or read in the Gates funded Guardian. Or maybe they prefer not to question the Gates funded
MHRA or the Gates funded WHO?

During the first part of the Covid lockdown everytime a doctor or scientist appeared on TV i would see which teaching hospital or university employed them. I would then goto the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation website and see how much their employers had received in donations,. It was usually hundreds of thousands of pounds and sometimes millions of pounds.

I am not sure about the UK but in the US in approximately 2019 Big Pharma lobbied US Congress by nearly twice as much as the next big industry which I think was insurance if I recall. I spent hundreds of hours researching and cross referencing these sources because up until early 2020 I believed that he was just a geeky philanthropist I watched many doctors and scientists who had grave concerns about a new experimental drug being introduced onto the market repeatedly censored by big tech and the mainstream media.

It's absolutely insane that more people didn't question what they were being told by corrupt politicians from all parties through the various media platforms.

And yes the rabbit hole is dark and deep with many tunnels leading to red herrings but 1 thing that I am certain of is that the most powerful people in the world do not have our best interests in heart and want to depopulate the planet.

You could have done something useful with those hundreds of hours - learned a language or musical instrument, or spent it outdoors. I’d seriously think about having a break from the internet if this is what you’re doing with your time.

I hardly bother anymore and I haven't done for at least a couple of years but I cannot unsee what I have seen. It was mainly during the first few months of lockdown when we were locked up for our own safety and only allowed 1 hour of exercise and had to stay 6 feet from the next person, following arrows around a supermarket whilst wearing an ineffective piece of cloth over our faces that neither prevented infection or transmission. A little like the ineffective vaccines that neither prevented infection or transmission. I never took any notice of any of the above btw.
Anyway I have to take the dog out and work to do so I may return to this thread later. If it is still here? :D

Describing people as nut jobs because they challenge what we read in papers and see on TV is not necessarily accurate. I take a middle ground view on most things and don’t always appreciate people who are extreme to the left or right wing of political views. I find it always pays to take in a little of what the theorists are trying to say but on the other hand don’t take everything as read because they often drag in some ridiculous theories which water down their arguments on other issues which may well have some validity.

Not sure where certain people are on the so called nut job league table? Depends on your own views I suppose. Very complex with varying themes that they bring up.

you fail to acknowledge that there are some forum users that have actually met people IRL and they can form a fair and honest judgement, in regards to the capacity of those people, to form a valid viewpoint on the subject matter in hand.

All I'll add to the discussion is that there is certainly a strong correlation between lower intellect and the lack of capacity to form a broad viewpoint considering all aspect of a subject matter and those people who are easily led by the "pied pipers" of the internet down the rabbit hole.

Joey Barton has joined Matt Le Tissier on that voyage to the deep recesses of "Wonderland" and it is clear to see if, of course, you have the capacity to see.

It seems if you caveat an argument against something (usually vaccines or climate emergency related)with words along the lines of "that's what the mainstream tell you...." then its usually a precursor to you probably spouting nonsense.

There is a culture of some people that believe conspiracies, often associated with their own disconnection and lack of control in their own life. Dare I say, lack of formal education, You tube and the Internet research do not amount to education or proper research.

There are no multi country, pharmaceutical, deep state conspiracies (add delete as appropriate). It's all nonsense.

Jeez we can't even build a railway properly, our government can't use WhatsApp properly etc- the truth is that there isn't the capability for most conspiracies to be real, even if someone wanted them to be.

I've been involved with enough projects to know that the truth is way more boring and in some ways scarier that the fictional conspiracies.

The irony being these people accuse others of wanting to believe what they are told and being incapable of thinking for themselves, whilst at the same time believing what they are told and not thinking for themselves.

Just making a point here that I'm sure most people will recognise.

You know that Post Office thing that's been in the news a bit recently, do you know what that was once branded as? Yep you've got it- A conspiracy theory.

Being easily lead and lacking capacity to make an informed decision could lead to some people "going down the rabbit hole" but the same flaws make people at the opposite end of the spectrum go - "oh yes there's no way the post office did that, have you not seen they arrested several postmasters!?"

I think it's best to accept that there will be some "conspiracy theory's" that are close or closer to the truth than the accepted narrative. There have been countless examples that prove this over time so I whilst I can understand dismissing some, those who just dismiss all without actually weighing up the evidence available and making an informed decision are just as barking as those that wear tin foil hats.

I think it's just that certain people tend to believe a lot of consipracy theories. Rather than believing the official account of any given event they choose to disbelieve out of principle.

you fail to acknowledge that there are some forum users that have actually met people IRL and they can form a fair and honest judgement, in regards to the capacity of those people, to form a valid viewpoint on the subject matter in hand.

All I'll add to the discussion is that there is certainly a strong correlation between lower intellect and the lack of capacity to form a broad viewpoint considering all aspect of a subject matter and those people who are easily led by the "pied pipers" of the internet down the rabbit hole.

Joey Barton has joined Matt Le Tissier on that voyage to the deep recesses of "Wonderland" and it is clear to see if, of course, you have the capacity to see.
I get it Zlatan, you have met me in real life, on a handful of occasions, and certainly not enough for you to form your view point of me so you keep making those subtle digs in at me which by the way you were totally out of order to do last time. If you unblock me on Facebook and fancy a chat, or see me on a match, you know where I am.
