Even if she did go to a doctor, if they suggested she take psychiatric medication she'd assume it was some attempt at brainwashing or something and refuse to take it. She believes that her only defense against the conspiracy is that they don't know that she knows they're out to get her, so any time she's afraid of some bizarre operation against her, the fact that it never occurs she takes as being due to outsmarting them. Man, that sucks. Do you have any siblings? Maybe if enough of you sat her down and told her to do something then maybe a thing could happen. I had a hard time convincing my siblings my mother was actually mentally ill. It wasn't as bad as your situation, but they felt like admitting she was mentally ill would mean that she was never in control and all the "good times*" were a fluke. *Good times being when she was manic as gently caress and spending us into crazy loving debt that will chase my stepdad for the rest of his life god drat.

I've not had a lot of experience or interaction with mental illness or the conspiracy crowd so I'm not always fully understanding the physchology behind it all. Where does one draw the line between just being a conspiracy theorist and being mentally ill? Are mental illness diagnosis always based on something more than symptoms, or could a "normal" person who gets sucked into the world of conspiracy theories become mentally ill? Basically where's the clinical line between "believing stupid poo poo because you're stupid and have awful politics" and "mental illness" or is it even that cut and dry?

The definition of mental illness depends on the extent to which it effects your daily life, and is therefore largely a matter of class. The truly wealthy are merely eccentric.

Dominicius posted:I will reply to the OP here. IF you wish to understand the position that people supporting the 9/11 conspiracy are coming from, watch the documentary called September 11 The New Pearl Harbor. It is pretty extensive so prepare yourself for a long watch. Five hours is longer than anyone can be reasonably expected to watch. Please provide vital segments (max 30 mins total) or at least a summary. Throwing a bunch of poorly edited video together at a length no reasonable person would watch is unreasonable. If you need 5 hours to say it, what you are saying is probably crazy. While "Loose Change" is a flawed documentary, it clocked it at a more reasonable (though still overly long) ~90 minutes (with the "full cut" being a little over 2 hours). That's what was able to grab the pazzazz. No one who isn't already committed is going to sit down and watch a 5 hour documentary. The length basically creates a "barrier for entry" that ensures only people who already believe will actually want it. That said, the end of part 5 and the beginning of part 6 is particularly poor rhetoric. "Can you explain how concrete melted by using only office fires and gravitational collapse?" (already rhetorically heavy handed and alienating to anyone who isn't already on board) by then the next segment is entirely dependent on the concrete having been pulverized. That is normal in this kind of piece, since it assumes the audience is either too fatigued to care, 100% on board and therefore unlikely to be critical or segments are designed to be watched independently from each other. It is a particularly poor piece, there are a lot of arguments by assertion (again and again to fill up that 5 hour runtime) and a lot of sloppy, accusing rhetoric. Studying what happened on 9/11 is science and that video is basically creationism.

So I have a political Facebook group(two actually)and I asked what people would have done differently after 9/11, expecting responses about foreign policy differences after the attacks, but 3 people came out as truthers. Does the thread have any good resources for debunking the idea that BUILDING 7 was a controlled demolition and that a missile hit the pentagon.

Yea, but those are all from paid shills for the Jewish Lizard Illumanti Obamaists. Ugh gun nuts are coming out saying todays shooting had to be faked because they're experts at guns and none of it looked real, because they have 50 guns and know what happens when someone gets shot. Also, the news team was actually fake, not just the shooting, because no one has ever seen these people before today.

We know a plane hit the Pentagon because there is no way the Illuminati (NWO/whatever you choose to call them) is going to risk breaking the seal and releasing the demon they have trapped there. Say what you will about the Satanists running things behind the scenes, but they are effusively on the side of life/generation coupled with man's dominion over the natural and spiritual world. Contrast that with the anti-life philosophies of death cults like Al Qaeda and ISIS. A plane hitting the Pentagon is about the only part of the official narrative that is true. There was some advanced warning (which is why the fake hijacking drill was initially created) but when the Illuminati couldn't stop the plane going into the Pentagon they had to rig up a quick sacrifice to ensure the integrity of the Seal. It gets confusing because there is all sorts of crazy occult imagery around 9/11 in NYC so people want to see it everywhere, but that is missing the point. Having the Twin Towers as an emergency escape value "sacrifice when ready" was part of why they were built. If you look at people who had offices there, it by-and-large wasn't businesses, it was government and "non-profit" (read: crazy side projects funded by billionaires -- in this case satanic billionaires) enterprises. The whole foundation was satanic. Then, when poo poo went off the rails and an anti-life group of Muslim extremists tried to free Baal from the Pentagon, they sacrificed the people therein to slake his thirst for blood and keep him contained.

People just look at footage from mad far away, one second before it collapses and go HEH.. but the fires were incredibly catastrophic, intense, and highly visible in loads of footage. Dozens if not hundreds of people jumped to their deaths to escape the heat, 911 calls have been released in trial as public record of two people on the phone up until the buildings collapsed where you can tell how they are convinced they are going to die just cuz of how hot the place was. It doesn't matter if fire can't melt steel if it fucks up everything else in the building and weakens the steel support beams enough that they start bending, which is what happened.

The contradiction remains. Was the concrete pulverized because of explosives (part 6) or did it melt because of nanothermite (part 5)? This is a big part of what people don't get about 9/11. The Twin Towers were unique because they had no internal steel framing, just an inner core around the elevators. Caption: Notice the cross. Another symbol of sacrifice. Probably not entirely necessary, but since occult forces are still poorly understood, even by the Illuminati, cramming some extra symbols in there "just to be safe" is a pragmatic choice. This is important because the towers were designed to fall and fall catastrophically at a moment's notice. The towers stood as a symbol of America's financial might, for the power of Wall Street. Which is symbolized by the Bull. Both the metaphorical "bull of Wall Street" and the Twin Towers are manifestations of Baal. Plus, the twin towers surrounded the Great Spherical Caryatid perfectly maps with both Solomon's temple and What Baal needs for sacrifice is "a burning place" (topheth) and on 9/11 the Twin Towers did indeed become Topheth, complete with a massive human sacrifice. I mean, think about it. Terrorists opposed to American Imperialism attack America. What do they choose to attack? The Pentagon, not only a symbol of America's military might but also actually a major military headquarters, the White House (the plane crashed but that was the original target) a symbol of the American government and the residence of the President and . . . the Twin Towers in NYC? Al Qaeda is a hardened terrorist organization, it knows how to pick high-value targets. Why attach buildings that ultimately had little to do with their grips? It doesn't make sense. But collapsing them to keep Baal contained in the Pentagon sure does make sense.

I've never heard an occult explanation for "bear market". While occult symbols infiltrate many aspects of our lives, not everything is an occult symbol. Being able to distinguish between the two is really important, otherwise you can get lost in the signal/noise ratio and basically induce schizophrenia.

I don't get how a market performing poorly would correlate to scapulimancy (what the Shriners were killing the bears for). Satanists should be all about scapulimancy since it led to the creation of the only human writing system (Chinese) as opposed to the more advanced (and easier to use) mesopotamian system gifted by the Anunnaki. Scapulimancy represents a primitive but powerful path towards human godhood.

Here's an excellent 9/11 documentary about the reality of being there and its only 30 minutes long. I imagine conspiracy theorists watch 4 hour long droneathons that make no point and contain zero actual eyewitnesses or experiences of the event yet don't spend 30 minutes understanding what it was like to actually go through this massive terrorist attack that killed thousands and wrecked downtown Manhattan. The idea that our own government would blow up a city block of its main financial hub and center for international commerce, while killing thousands of innocent people and destroying billions of dollars of infrastructure is so loving retarded I can't even begin to engage with the conspiratorial thinking without becoming irate and wanting to slap someone.

. . . . Kinda? It's been pretty well established that Japan was ready to surrender. Dropping the bombs halted Russian advances in China and showed the Ruskies that we've got The Bomb. It wasn't a "false flag" per se, but the real reasons why we did it are at odds with the official reasons why we did it. Things like that happen all the time, we just don't call them "conspiracy theories" because they are an accepted part of the official historical narrative.
