Well to be honest its heavy infested with trolls and the agents. They did there job well censorng the Truth. It goes back 15 years and more. Not surprised people don't want to post here. A few months ago I post a 9/11 Finding The Truth  video from 2008 and the whole YouTube video got taken down. Just like when John White and his mates took down the same video from the old icke forum from 2008

There are lots and lots of other outlets for what is going on now like Brand New Tube and UK Column etc, so we are all spread out a bit i think.

Who was he purportedly, the assumed hacker of the old forums??? Or someone who became a mod maybe, who then was found out to be a trolling message crusher and sabotager??

John White was a Mod when Sean Adle ran things. White didn't like no planes theory  on 9/11. And one day removed one of my videos that had important information its only been up for an hour.

Yes lots of platforms now, we're still out there all over the place mate.

If it would help I could add in a King Kong theory, but I'm thinking that might have been too obvious at the time of the happening!! 

 

Seriously though, thanks for clueing us in. Us, as in anyone not of the old forums.

I also got threats from another  moderator nothing was done about any of this. I take it you haven't research any 9/11 stuff coz you will know boeing planes can't  do what we seen on the 9/11 footage 

[TetraG]

Correct, I am no aeroplane expert.. (Tempted to make a joke about a second 9/11 to further fuel worlds end discussion, but its not really funny is it).

 

Here's something a tad lighter.... 

 

BUT... I don't agree with the lynching mob going after Greta Thünberg on the same page. 

Can't understand what the hell that achieves. Sickening OF the angle of climate change deniers not seeing the bigger picture, all just because of distractionism, abstractionism and off the reign conspiracy.  

I think conspiracies (*at least the ones where I understand the basis*) are healthy, on the whole however if kept in relative proportion congruent with rational conspiracist evidence or insight... If not then else people should not be distracting to bigger overall issues like climate change.

The forum format has being dying for years, everyone is on networks now, Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, TikTok, there are tons on Telegram groups as well. This is a graveyard, pay your respects and leave like the rest.

[Les Paul Robot]

The old forum was quality, back when message boards were still a thing. Good times

What are you insinuating? This is a different forum to the 'old one'.

 

The video you posted there was taken down by YouTube, nothing to do with this forum.

 

"This video has been removed for violating YouTube's policy on hate speech. Learn more about combating hate speech in your country." That's what comes up when I paste the URL into a new browser tab.

 

And this is another reason why we ask people, when sharing YouTube videos, to provide the title and a brief synopsis, so that the video can be found elsewhere in the event it is removed by YT.

Well that is true, but then think about WHY there have been such moves to 'kill off' forums and discussion boards by getting people onto social networks...

 

Centralised controlled platforms. THAT's why we still need independent forums, and why people will start coming back as they get booted off the controlled social networks.

[TetraG]

Sometimes the essence of being alive is being a bit dead, but thats okay as long as we are not  u  l  t  r  a   d  e  a  d  in mind body & soul on controlled platforms (thats not sarcasm).. 

 

 

ETA... I wouldn't know what I feel about Telegram, but does anyone compare it to anything else they know (good or bad??) as a fair comparison either way?  

 

I have never used telegram but may wish to in the future.. I guess.

Not interested in social media and other platforms. This works for me. Some very good people doing good stuff here. 

 

Plus the fact so much effort goes into silencing debate on here from "outside" proves as much.

What does that say about those abandoning these forums for social networking sites? Why this willingness on the part of so many digital immigrants to want to participate in the equivalent of a reverse brain drain? It's not like television where there's little choice as to the intellectual level of content that's available. This is what I find so perplexing and disturbing: This preference among so many grown-ups who would rather spend their time sharing trivialities with other like-minded doodlers than rise to the occasion of using their spare time wisely in more productive online interactions.

 

The blame for the dumbing down of society can be put on the movers and shakers only so far. Sure, the technologists have been doing their part in designing devices where even the simple act of typing is looked down upon as an archaic inconvenience to be overcome by the heroic 'problem-solvers'; understandably, if all you know how to do is swipe, tap, pinch & reverse pinch, that kind of makes it difficult to input a message into a text box.

 

Still, keypad or no virtual keypad, I see this more as a sad commentary on modern-day adulthood (a far cry from the admirably more literary & attentive mid-Victorian, Transcendentalists period), in which nowadays grownups, almost as impatient as society's youth, would rather upload endless mindless selfies than engage in an intellectually stimulating dialogue with a fellow board member. Heck, one social media site even imposes a limit on how many characters can be used in a message! There goes discussing Socrates and his daemon in any meaningful way.

 

Not only has the digital revolution brought out the moron in the average citizen turned netizen, but the narcissist, as well. Really, what could be more self-absorbed than relating to others, often complete strangers no less, what you just had for lunch? Took a shit at 2. Should've been there. Massive. Nearly unflushable. Feel 2 lbs lighter. Felt a little sad as we parted ways. Will keep u posted when the next one drops. That's about the extent of it. This, today's idea of being up-to-date on current events.

 

Here I'm reminded of a most delicious curmudgeon-y diatribe that the late, great Ray Bradbury penned, prior to the dawn of the Information Age, yet certainly even more applicable to our time. His essay "I'm Mad As Hell, And I'm Not Going To Take It Anymore! (The Millennium, That Is)" is quite the readable rant and, as I once told a public educator, one that I think ought to be required reading in every high-school classroom!
