  • I keep saying this cause it’s a take a lot of people gloss over. I haven’t dated in a while because I’m too broke to add anything else to my budget, dive bars included. Dating takes time and money, and if I get more of either, I’m using it to better my situation before thinking about dating.

    In a time where real wealth is dwindling for most young men, I can imagine I’m not alone on this.


  • I was going to link you to a wikipedia article titled CIA controversies but took the time to name a few of the more flagrant episodes by them and the FBI which would be more interesting to learn about.

    Operation north wood, midnight climax, mk ultra, project mockingbird, cointelpro, operation chaos, the church committee reports.

    Reading about just a few of these should start to reveal that skepticism regarding the intent and methodology of the US gov is a valid response and not necessarily in line with ‘conspiracy theory bullshit.’


  • I see what you mean. I would explain my logic as such:

    1. These agencies have a consistent history of misleading populaces at home and abroad, through tactics such as the one mentioned above.

    2. Part of their work is to hide/destroy evidence of falsehood.

    3. At one of the most turbulent times in decades, the chances of their clandestine participation in the way we view the world is all but assured.

    So it’s more of a recognition of a pattern than outright speculation. The alternative view that the US gov is not engaged in these activities domestically seems more far-fetched to me. Not impossible, just out of character.




  • I see it as your typical big investor bait and switch. Start off with promise, and then once you have society hooked and it’s necessary for businesses normal everyday functions, they remove the value by increasing cc fees. It’s already happening.
