    Anti Vax? Thats a big assumption from you there. An incorrect assumption.

    It's not an assumption, it's a poster on reddit, you can look up their posts. He's a conspiracy quack.

    What kind of CT forum is this?

    Is this not the place to discuss conspiracy related material?

    Yet as soon as someone tries to have a discussion several posters jump on top of posters, with some aggression I might add.

    I mean all you have to do is look at the ID2020 website and its spelled out as clear as day that there is a desire, to create a digital ID for everyone.
    But it's not spelled out. The website does not at all ever mention or talk about microchips being implanted in anyone at any point.

    I'm sorry if you feel it's aggressive when people point out that what you are saying is not true.

    I agree to a certain extent.

    While I think its interesting to go with a "what if" mentality is grand but a lot of CT posters post rubbish as fact...in the grand scheme of things that doesn't really matter (think the earths flat or there's an invisible planet in our solar system , no harm done)


    Posting false sh1te about vaxxines or the coronavirus is dangerous.

    I've been on boards on and off since 2005. One of the most annoying and favourite posters was a chap called Mysterious...could never make out if he was an elite troll or a fukking idiot....but always entertaining.

    Wanna support genocide?Cheer on the murder of women and children?The Ruzzians aren't rapey enough for you? Morally bankrupt cockroaches and islamaphobes , Israel needs your help NOW!!

    Good. There shouldn't be any safe spaces for falsehoods and bull****.

    Some people may find conspiracies "fun", but there are people who actually believe this stuff and take it very seriously, people who give their kids vitamins instead of taking them to the doctor, people who think Corona virus is all a conspiracy

    If someone wants to post disinfo on a public forum, they shouldn't be surprised if it gets called out - as long as it's all done within the rules

    The self anointed boards police has spoken,reality is its just a safe space for you guys to come and vent because you have a certain caricature of conspiracy theorists built up in your mind and you somehow think you are superior in here with your greater knowledge to debunk everything.

    Truth is you guys are stepped on in your personal lives and you can't resist coming back to these threads to get a little bit of your self respect back thats being taken off you daily.

    Why else would you continually come back and post on a thread that you don't agree with or believe in?
    Because you guys care about the public being misinformed?Pull the other one you don't give a **** about joe public being misinformed as most poeple don't,its just an excuse you guys use to keep coming back here.

    Just f*cking LOL at all the posters on the main thread calling for the army to come out and even to shoot people causing problems , looters etc

    The very same people who a few days ago were rubbishing stories about the army possibly hitting the streets.

    You believe the army will never be deployed on the street, ever?

    My point is that the idea of the army hitting the streets was rubbished a few days ago but now plenty of the same people are hoping for it to happen.

    Wouldn't be surprised if it did happen tbh, they may be needed to help out in various capacities such as if hospitals become overburdened and field hospitals or testing centres are set up.

    It would not surprise me if this was a deliberate act from China, a way to take down Europe and America. South American, Australia, and Africa have had little cases.
    North Italy was the perfect place to plant the virus for Europe to absorb it, New York and Washington State like wise .

    Funny how it never took effect in the City over from Wuhan, but Italy , yes.

    Chinese infect Wuhan with weak strain, clean it up in a month, and then sits back and watching World suffer the full strength strain.

    Just to upset the regular two ant-theorists (well, of any theory at all), will leave the banter-master's (Nostra himself) curious passage here:

    Nostradamus, Century 2, Quatrain 56.

    " The sloping park, great calamity "
    HANKO JIANGTAN Park in Wuhan has slopes to the river waterfront where people can walk into the water.

    " Through the Lands of the West and Lombardy"
    West & N.Italy

    " The fire in the ship, plague and captivity "
    Ships symbolise trade, commerce and wealth, red considered colour of fire. Plague:Corona virus. Captivity: city lockdown.

    " Mercury in Sagittarius, Saturn fading "
    Beginning of January 23rd, 24th Jan 2020. Wuhan was placed under effective quarantine on January 23, as air and rail departures were suspended


    Best to be taken with a pinch of salt all the same, he scribbled some amount of Quatrains, there was no Insta, Netflix n' Chill way back in 1555.

    There was an astrological conjunction in January, Saturn-Pluto which if you believe that sort of thing would signal worldwide transformational change and the ending of old structures.

    To have a debate/discussion you can only have it with mature minded adults willing to listen and willing to be wrong you and a few posters just come in with an agenda.

    Its a conspiracy thread to discuss conspiracies.You simply don't believe there is any conspiracy anywhere so no point in being here u could have said that on page one and left,why don't you and a few of the other posters have a thread called the anti conspiracy thread and you guys can bang on to each other about all the crackpots over on the conspiracy threads between yourselves.

    Nope. Conspiracies, inside jobs, corruption, collusion happen all the time. If you feel the need to pigeon-hole anyone because they are asking common sense questions about far-fetched conspiracies that people plainly can't support that's your issue

    Most conspiracies are light silly stuff, that's fine, but as mentioned earlier we have infectious diseases making a comeback directly due to online disinfo, we have people harassing families of slain victims from shootings, we have dangerous medical woo circulating.

    It's a debate forum, if someone wants to post something that's baseless and illogical, then it's perfectly reasonable for someone else to point that out. Corona virus is a pretty serious thing, if individuals want to act wounded because this isn't a validation chamber for blatant falsehoods about the disease - I don't know what to say to that

    Well then you that has all the answers figure me this i would love someone to explain it to me.

    Our beloved leader has told us our finances our good we can borrow billions,but the bill is gonna be Enormous off course.

    So if our finances our good and we can borrow billions why is there so many Irish people homeless in our own state,and rampant crime bordering on being a Mexico styled failed state because of Gardai underfunding.

    You have people like yourself probably with a nice home,so you don't see what certain people see because others see that their leader and government doesn't give a damn about the people old or young or whether they die or lose their home or die from cheap smear tests,not a jot do they give,as long as they can line their pockets while doing what Google and EU leaders tell them to do.

    So why now do we believe Leo cares about people getting sick,it makes anybody want to ask whats really going on because make no mistake nothing is ever done for the welfare of the general populace,everything is done to line pockets of Elites,maybe you and a few other posters make up some part of this elite in here muddying the waters dumbing down the commoners from any critical thinking.

    But the bottom line is and Leo let everyone know that the bill is gonna be enormous.

    We were just supposedly getting a bit better servicing the bank debt and now this,and people aren't suspicious,people should be very suspicious of bills being imposed on them but people like you help keep them dumbed down.

    NAIL ON HEAD

    It's just mindless self indulgent ego masturbation for these folk.

    Why would you spend all day everyday on a forum you don't believe in and actively come to pooh pooh everything. I have no interest in cricket would I spend all day everyday of my my life on a cricket forum?. Of course not. It would be insanity. Sheer insanity and a terrible waste of time to boot.
    To be forthright, I can't imagine people who spend all day everyday of their lifes on a forum they have no interest in have life's as such. How could you?. Think about it.


    ANY other thread on this site they would be banned from the forum. That is a simple fact. No mod would allow anyone onto a soccer forum for example and say it's a load of crap all day long. Be banned quickly.

    It's best to ignore them, their are genuine forums will people engage in debate as grown adults and don't condemn any alternative beliefs. You won't find them on boards.ie, not now not ever.

    Conspiracies are not a "load of crap" however some indeed most conspiracy theories are a "load of crap".
    A theory is just that, a theory. It needs to be picked apart and analysed.
    There's not much point of this forum if everyone agrees that a specific conspiracy theory is actually a conspiracy.

    People "pooh pooh" theories because the logic doesn't add up. Like with a lot of conspiracy theories on the Corona Virus.
    That's not to say there has been some Conspiracy involved, just that a lot of the theories thrown around so far don't make sense.
