Cave Rescue News Distraction

Does anyone have any speculation on if the massive news coverage of the Thai soccer team is a diversion tactic? Any idea what we are supposed to not pay attention to?

Maybe the child trafficking and prostitution that runs rampant all over the world and especially in Thailand?

(I miss telethons.)

It's obvious to me no one in power wants to end sex trafficking.

I feel like it's more specific than just an overall don't pay attention here. If a show comes out that glorifies pedophilia then I would suspect it.

Yeah I can't think of anything more specific..

Frankly this is just the type of story people fucking love. Divers, miners, Jimmy fell in the ol’ well, flooding elevators, etc.

It doesn’t strike me as much of a distraction any more than all news already is.

I agree pisses me off bad. Another Russian dropped dead in Europe and all anyone cares about is these poor boys in the cave. Once I heard navy seals were involved I stopped worrying for the boys.

Why? One of those SEALS died already. Why were you ever worried and what does it mean that you can turn your empathy for others on and off so quickly? I think this is decent enough pulp news for people. People want to feel hope, they want to feel empathy for those across the globe, they want to see success and see things go right through human cooperation.

I’d say the obsession with these events, at least initially, is a far better representation of a good mindset than obsession with things like celebrity, politics, entertainment, finance, etc because all of those things are perfectly crafted from conception til execution to elicit a particular response (usually buying something) from you. Crazy accidents break through because real people with real feelings are involved. Remember the missing plane extravaganza? Everyone wanted that plane to be found. Everyone worked together to try to figure it out. It was an attempt to make the best of tragedy and teach ourselves through it, same as this I think.

I just don’t think it’s a big deal, just because you’re tired of hearing about it. Try switching the channel, or better yet, go to the park for a while, have a nice dinner and a glass of wine, reread your favorite book of all time and go to bed realizing that none of this bullshit has to bother you, it’s your choice to focus on it.

I did feel compassion for them. But I bet it's not hard to find folks stuck in all kinds of places. Also that seal did saving children it's. Heroic death. We should all know his name. I don't like your assumption I have compassion that turns on or off. I am worried this is a false flag type of event and just wondered if any folks here had any ideas on what it could be?

Anyone remember Cecil the lion? Got shot by a rich dentist taking our gaze away from Ferguson?

Scam to get free World Cup tickets and trip from publicity

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

And sometimes its a big brown dick

Whatever turns you on.

Heh. You might have missed the reference. Its George Carlin if you did

Ahhhhhhh. I am a better person for knowing this.

Yes knowing all of George Carlins jokes by memory is MANDATORY!

I am unworthy.

Is it possible that this is just another false event/story being fabricated in front of our eyes just for the sake of practicing such events and the narrative manipulation that follows? The only way to getter better at pulling them them off is through performing them.

What is the long term goal? Why do we want to get good at trapping soccer teams in caves? How are people being manipulated by this happening?

Dude it's not the cave it's the millions of Americans watching the cave. CNN live updates pushed to billions of handheld devices. Wouldn't it be a gas if they actually pushed something useful? Like the decisions of Bret Kavanaugh or anything else. Flint Michigan still has poison water. Also I think all have been rescued. They were all getting out of there alive. It was no reason for an entire nation to stop looking at what's going on here.

No, they want to get good at making you believe a thing really happened when it did not.

I see what you meant now. Is there any evidence of this being faked yet? Did they actually kill the former Thai SEAL, do you think, or just pay him to disappear?

Maybe not even a former SEAL. But they didn't kill him, no.

Its bullshit!

And so fuckin overdramatic. They even called inn Stark Industries. Who delivered a submarine.

This reality is totally bonkers, and the story is fabricated.

No navy seal drowned i bet.

But it did give a nice dramatic twist

Why is it we don't know the name of the seal? He or she is a hero. We should all know them. I suspect you're right about it being a plot device.

The most significant event that happened is FBI's failure to submit to congressional oversight: https://www.wsj.com/articles/will-the-fbi-come-clean-1530833315

I can't read it all behind a pay wall. I will comment that I don't have a lot of legitimacy placed in the Nunes investigation. He is clearly playing partisan and unlikely to have any real investigation.

All this does is bolster my belief that the Steele Dosier is actually true and Trump likes golden showers. Nunes has a lot of missteps in the other direction. Not at all endorsing Hillary Clinton - I am only saying Devin Nunes investigation is a farce. Here are some other articles on Nunes - he may not be all that right. Let's not focus on our divisions anymore

FBI will comply with the dictates of its oversight whether it wants to or not.

You really have no idea about any of this, do you? Even the fake Steele Dossier (you spelled it wrong, FYI) isn't about Trump getting pissed on. It's about him paying hookers to piss on the bed Obama slept in.

But let's not focus on our divisions anymore! Or the facts!

Sure man, my misspelling totally demonstrates your superior valid point.

Cool! I'm glad you see it that way too! You're evolving!

Good luck man.

Thanks pal! Good luck on your evolving journey!

And also, the kids get isolated. Something murky is going on here.

And why is there no focus on how they got down there in the first place?

Every since the school shootings of last year kids have seemingly been a.focal point of MSM news coverage. Coinsidence? Maybe, but I think there is much more.

Not that massive. Most people I know havent even heard about it or if they did they dont give a shit.

I did feel compassion for them. But I bet it's not hard to find folks stuck in all kinds of places. Also that seal did saving children it's. Heroic death. We should all know his name. I don't like your assumption I have compassion that turns on or off. I am worried this is a false flag type of event and just wondered if any folks here had any ideas on what it could be?
