As I have said before, I read a lot of news and even watch YouTube videos. In the course of my day I come across a lot of garbage, most of it I never mention because it is not worth my time. Most of the "conspiracies" I write about and confirmed or discussed in their own writings. JP Morgan paid around $30 Billion for rigging markets. The market rigging by them and other banks was real and people should have gone to jail.
Here is one of the problems in the United States, people don't trust the politicians or big business. They do not believe that either has the best interest of the people or this nation at heart and I agree with that. I believe that is why Donald Trump is having such a surge in popularity even more than the issues he raises. When you continually lie to people, as the politicians and media have done, they stop believing anything you say and distrust everything you do and that is what we are seeing.
Let me give you an example of my take on something and a different popular view held by many others. I believe genetically modifying food is a bad idea because we don't know what effect it will have long term and too much consistency in a food source makes it susceptible to complete annihilation by pestilence. I should also point out that I tend to buy free range and hormone free meats. The hormones in food are causing children to experience puberty at an earlier and earlier age, this is a bad thing. Now, many on the internet actually believe that these things are being done to kill us. Some of the biggest web broadcasters are openly saying that the government and the wealthy want to kill 90% of us. I will not post to their sites; but, you can go on to YouTube or search the internet for the term "depopulation".
Right now a popular belief is that the military is about to take over the population and put us all in concentration camps. I am not making this idiocy up. Search the terms, "fema camps" and or "Jade Helm 15". Just so you understand, Fema Camps are temporary holding facilities for people after a natural or other disaster and Jade Helm is a military exercise that is going on that involves using the military in a natural disaster or in the event of social unrest. I am absolutely against using the military to quell civil disturbances and believe that what happened to the Occupy movement because of the federal government getting involved in local issues was unconstitutional. Yet there seems to be a whole industry being built to peddle fear. I will call in conspiracy porn and it is behind the rise in radicalism.
I should point out a couple of things. The "conservatives" in this country are no longer true conservatives, they act and talk like Ayn Rand followers, they are extreme forms of a sort of libertarian dog eat dog fascists. I will say this for Mitt Romney, at least he openly declared that he did not believe most people were anything other than leaches on society. Others who feel the same way try and couch it in nicer terms. Trump is just a lot more blunt, he says that all illegals are rapists and murderers. The reason the other Republican politicians and the media don't know how to respond to him is because fundamentally, they agree with him.
A little history. First, I want to be absolutely clear that I don't think Donald Trump is a fascist. From what I have been told by people who knew him, he is actually a really nice person to be around and is very giving. If the election comes down to Trump versus Hillary Clinton, I would vote for Trump. If the election comes down to Jeb Bush versus Sanders, I would vote for Sanders. And if neither Trump nor Sanders is the candidate then I probably won't bother voting at all. Now the history. In Germany after World War I the people needed someone to blame and they blamed the communists and jews. Hitler did not start that, he merely believed it and promoted it with more force than others. Hitler was a true believer rather than just being some political whore selling the blame game. What is going on with Trump is the same thing. Trump is saying to the Republicans, hey, if this is what we believe then we need to put our money where are mouths are and do something about it. There is actually a "conservative" radio host who has said that if we find an illegal alien we should turn them into slaves. That guy makes Trump sound like a pro-immigration fanatic.
I want to change the subject for a moment. Do you remember when all the Cuban boat people left Cuba and landed in Florida? Remember how they were cheered because they left that bad communist nation? Why is our response different when they come here from central America to flee equally bad governments?
One trend I see on the conspiracy porn sites is that they are almost always anti-Israel. Personally I believe Israel has a right to exist; but, I do disagree with some of the things it has done. I think Israel has way too much sway on our politics. You can disagree with a nations actions without being against the nations existence. Heck, I disagree with many US policies; but, I think we have a right to be our own nation. The conspiracy porn sites are just a bunch of anti-Semites who spin it differently.
