"This guy is from /r/conspiracy"

"This isn't /r/conspiracy"

"Go back to /r/conspiracy"

Every reference i've seen to /r/conspiracy from other subs has never been a favorable one

That's just a reflection of the intolerance of people in the types of subs you frequent.

Its been pushed into them from every angle thanks to great efforts by the CIA to push people away from believing their own eyes on the Kennedy assassinations. The best, most expensive brainwashing money can buy.

But beautifully the tides are turning. The majority believe the truth. It only took a decade of the powers that be fucking up consistently.

This thread has been linked to from elsewhere on reddit.

No, what makes /r/conspiracy look bad is the people who think everything from Sandy Hook to a minor celebrity's death is a conspiracy.

I've never understood why people assume discussion = belief. People can entertain ideas without believing them.

Give them this quote:

"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle

Aren't you the same kid who posts to conspiratard and was trying to give out medical advice regarding vaccines, even though you aren't even going to school for medicine?

As opposed, say, to the medical degree owned by Jenny McCarthy. Oh, wait: never mind...

Strawman argument, statement never made. Made up your own argument then attacked it.

trying to give out medical advice regarding vaccines, even though you aren't even going to school for medicine

What part of that does not apply to Jenny McCarthy?

That sentence was referring to YOUR unqualified presence in the matter, not that of some random celebrity.

1) You might want to check to who he was responding, because it certainly wasn't me.

2) He might have had a point, if only anti-vaccine proponents don't use a Playboy model as their leading spokesperson.

Yes, child but you said you agree, welcome to that side of the argument.

That point is moot. That is PURELY speculation on your behalf.

Guess that's as close as I'll get to you admitting you were wrong.

1) I don't post on conspiritard.

2) Saying I believe doctors over Jenny McCarthy isn't giving you medical advice, it's common sense.

I don't post on conspiratard

What other lies are you peddling?

Haha, wow you actually went all through my account history for one post that is not related to /r/conspiracy in any way? I mean, I'm all for dedication but that's a little sad don't you think?

And also, you make out like I always post to conspiritard as if it nullifies my opinion. I also post a lot on Reddit, this must have taken a long time to find.

you actually went all through my account history for one post

You lied about your account history. I didn't force you to lie.

you make out like I always post to conspiritard as if it nullifies my opinion.

Your perception isn't in line with the reality. You lied. I caught you in a lie. Now you're twisting and turning. It's fun to watch.

Fellow conspiratard comes to save his fallen bretheren, writes a bunch of nonsense to attack the messenger.

Edit: You forgot to include the sentence beforehand,

You lied. I caught you in a lie.

Your cohort lied. I'm surprised you framed your retort as an attack on me. It would make you a true brother to your fellow conspiratard. Which one of you gives the reach around?

[deleted]

The real reason to why I "attacked" you is that there's zero value to anything you add to the conversation

I added the fact that your fellow conspiratard lies. We wouldn't be talking if I hadn't pointed that fact out.

I actually caught the conspiratard red-handed (the proof you and your ilk always demand is staring you in the face). I'm sorry you need to attack the messenger. Maybe you can attack your fellow conspiratard for tarnishing the conspiratard name.

[deleted]

there's no value in adding that.

A user's credibility is of no value? That is a popular idea on conspiratard.

you're being way too dramatic and serious about this

You started the conversation. The conversation must be somewhat serious for you to keep messaging me about it. If it weren't serious, why are you still talking to me about it?

Edit: What is the value in proving your ilk demands proof? That's a rhetorical question, carry on.

[deleted]

I'm assuming then that you're unable to provide any proof for your claim.

but two comments ago...

When did I demand proof?

The irony is palpable.

[deleted]

Dr. Conspiratard has a nice ring, doesn't it?

I'm assuming then that you're unable to provide any proof for your claim. Know what that means? You lied. I caught you in a lie. I caught you red-handed. Sorry for stealing your catchphrase, but it seems fitting since I beat you at your own game.

Playing "I-win" with a child always ends up like this.

but I'm lazy.

Alright, Snowden, you caught me I'm here specifically to create a huge illusion just to get you to wrongly believe something. Jesus, you need a life.

you need a life

says the conspiratard troll who got caught lying and now is pouting about it.

He's going to be famous!

Scumbag CraigDevlin

Man, you're just obsessing over my profile huh?

Ad hominem and strawman. Attack followed by argument created by you solely. Nobody said you were here to do that, only that you lied and that you were wrong.

Though I can't help but agree with their facetiously made comment.

Well that makes an idiot, too. Congratulations.

Maybe you misunderstood. I said that I happen to agree with that Conspiratard's statement.

They said:

you caught me I'm here specifically to create a huge illusion just to get you to wrongly believe something.

Don't you agree? That user is here to create an illusion (disinformation) and to get people to wrongly believe something. Just because the statement was said in a facetious manner, that doesn't invalidate it.

I didn't understand but as well, taking this stand makes us look paranoid.

Conspiratard was made for the sole purpose of attacking people with different view points. Right, wrong, crazy or sane as our points or views, these people are always in the wrong, regardless. They add no value to anything.

Strengthening our arguments, and throwing out our weaknesses will completely undermine their childish presentation that they call a counter-argument.

So I see what you're saying, yet still feel it is wrong, although I am not above having made the same mistake. Regardless of whether he is or isn't, we can never prove it to be true, and must stick to discussing the things other people refuse to discuss, while not attributing to the cliche of that of someone who researches conspiracy related material.

I have a question for you; do you frequent /r/conspiratard?

Yes. I try to understand my opposition's though process and that requires "studying" them.

Why?

When your opposition lies, is your first inclination to back the ad hominem and strawman of your opposition?

Ah. You seem to have misunderstood and are confused. Read the comment I made to the other user about this.

You left out

Alright, Snowden,

to help circumvent your linguistic tap dancing routine with the other truth seeker. Here's the full quote from the conspiratard which you agreed with:

Alright, Snowden, you caught me I'm here specifically to create a huge illusion just to get you to wrongly believe something.

You misrepresented a conspiratard to fuck with two truth seekers.

Edit words

Ah. Yep. You have indeed misunderstood the intentions of my comment.

Thanks for the clarification.

That's 2 times in a row you said I've "misunderstood" without clarifying your remarks.

Fact is you're a bullshit artist who's getting called out. Please don't misunderstand.

I did indeed clarify my remarks in the comment I alluded to. Your comprehension failure is in no way my problem.

Please explain why you left out "Alright, Snowden" in your defense of a known conspiratard? You haven't explained it to anyone yet. Let's see if you have it in you to man up and not run away with a child's excuse.

Because it's irrelevant to the point I made.

Indeed.

The point you tried to make was deliberately taken out of context. The context is an insult you chose to ignore to fuck with a fellow truth seeker.

Edit words

Interesting observation of what you believe my intentions were.

Interesting that you haven't explained your intention of leaving the first part of the quote out of your retort...

Because it's irrelevant to the point I made.

The point you made is invalidated by the part you left out.

You believe that, I do not. I quoted specifically what was relevant to my point and the point was made. Now whether you accept my intentions or not is not my concern.

Your intentions are to misrepresent what a person says in order to prove a point for a conspiratard. That's the issue. You might as well be a conspiratard. You do a poor job trying to fit in.

No that's what you believe my intentions are.

I'm not trying to fit in.

I too just saw the Cure and they are fucking amazing.

You misrepresented a conspiratard to fuck with two truth seekers.

?

You misrepresented a conspiratard to fuck with two truth seekers.

Nope. That is in fact not what I did. That's what you think I did. Sorry!

Then why did you leave out the "Snowden" insult at the beginning of the quote?

Because it was irrelevant to the point in which I made.

Insults aren't irrelevant when you decide to take sides /u/myconspiracyname.

Still not sure who that is.

You believe that, I do not.

Your belief isn't necessary to show you're dishonest.

You believe that, I do not.

Your belief isn't necessary to show you're dishonest.

I have yet to be dishonest. You have yet to show dishonesty because there is none. Being truthful gives me nothing to worry about.

Alright, Snowden, you caught me I'm here specifically to create a huge illusion just to get you to wrongly believe something. Jesus, you need a life.

You decided to leave the bold part out of your retort. The cut/paste hack job you did proves you are a liar. I don't care what you say. You're /u/myconspiracyname, so I know how to school you any day.

That's not proof of being a liar since I did not lie and I do not know who that is.

Ad hominem. Attack after being caught lying to diminish commentator character to draw light away from your character flaws. Oldest trick in the book, literally.

Open discussion makes this sub look bad?

No, what makes /r/conspiracy look bad is the people who think everything from Sandy Hook to a minor celebrity's death is a conspiracy.

Why is this comment at the top? I'm confident that the general consensus of legitimate /r/conspiracy users believe Sandy Hook is fishy.

Is the comment being upvoted for the celebrity death part? Seems conspiratardish.

Do not forget the lizard people!

I have yet to meet a /r/conspiracy user who believes in Lizard people. Have you?

I can not say that I have...Granted I have seen some articles posted that relate to them. (the beiber thing being the most recent)

But please tell me you understood that we were joking/being sarcastic above right....

I don't circlejerk here. Sorry.

Well still does not stop the fact that people really do believe in the lizard theory here.

And if they so choose to then let them, also you seem to be lacking a sense of humor.

Where are these people you speak of?

They are around somewhere.

Sureeeee.

Until then Lizard People believers are the perfect stricken argument for discrediting conspiracy theorists. Lizard People believers are often the most brought up while the least common. Interesting how that is.

I still disagree there is anything more than a few select believers. And I have yet to find one.

Oh No! If I wear red shoelaces to school today the cool kids will laugh at me!

These posts never made it past the new queue on a tiny subreddit. And only one of them mentions /r/conspiracy.

I honestly think that the fact that people deride /r/conspiracy as a loony bin makes it easier to keep the idiots away. Swallow your pride and accept that some people are going to find it weird and dislike that you don't take what is presented to you as the "official story" for granted.

1) You might want to check to who he was responding, because it certainly wasn't me.

2) He might have had a point, if only anti-vaccine proponents don't use a Playboy model as their leading spokesperson.
