Best Videos to Enlighten General Public?

42  2011-10-23 by revtrot

I started showing friends videos like Power of Nightmares by Adam Curtis. They were surprised that they had never even heard of this kind of stuff.

What are the top documentaries that can really help enlighten the lay public?

83 comments

the secret of Oz (long)

the American dream (short)

also, zeitgeist/money as debt.

The secret of Oz should be a mandatory educational video specially for those supporting the OWS. If all Americans had to watch this I believe we'd see real change in this country.

Edit - At least the historical part. The solutions part at the end leaves a bit to be desired.

Money as Debt; Zeitgeist: Moving Forward

Not a documentary, but any George Carlin video on YouTube

I wouldn't recommend Zeitgeist.. There's too much crackpot stuff mixed in with the valid stuff. It completely undermines itself.

zeitgeist is misinformation at best.

The first and second perhaps, but not Moving Forward.

there are still parts of moving forward that are spun. sorry.

Enlighten me, please.

that is your own job. what, no internet?

First off, no need for animosity. Secondly, is this how you handle all discussion?

Scumbag spoons2020: presents argument, tells you to do your own research.

A statement (especially blanket-statements) has no credibility if you can't back it up. Did you even watch all of Moving Forward, or are you simply on a critical bandwagon of sorts?

I keep various youtube clips on my android so that i can have an offline refrence on the go. i call it my hard hitter pack.

i have a ton more, but that cover's the basics. All can be found on youtube.

PATRIOTS, GET READY, IT HAPPENS JULY 4TH 2011

BWAHAHAHA

yea, thats the title of the video here

Needless to say, nothing happened on july 4th. Good speech, though.

edit: looks like they retitled the video, lool

I am greatly amused by the fact that video is now 'PATRIOTS, GET READY - IT HAPPENS ON SEPTEMBER 11TH 2011'.

Is Harold Campling part of their crew?

LMAO yea no shit. I enjoyed the speech, but i find it kinda lulzy as well.

Darrelc is an astroturf agent, just ignore him.

one of the accounts that got talked about in the HBGary leak - talk about random crap 80% of the time, spend the other 20% of the time trying to diminish "conspiracy theory" talk. look at his post history.

his name crops up in here practically every day..has for the last year or so. total liar.

Well onesideofthestory, now's your time to shine. Any questions? comments? you seem to know me pretty well enough to slate me without giving me a chance to counter.

no one in their right mind follows a subredit so closely for nothing more than to bash it's members. there is definitely more to the story with you. I'm fairly certain you are acting in some sort of official roll. the US Government has made it's intentions clear to infiltrate such communities...

you're like a Cass Sunstein creation...

'If you look like a duck, walk like a duck and you talk like a duck . . . you must be a duck.'

I've said this to you before - I enjoy debate. I enjoy current events. I enjoy conversing with people different to whom I normally do. I'm a bored 23 year old who is has too much free time on my hands that browses reddit. Why is it so hard for you to understand that?

What about you dieselphiend - why do you browse /conspiracy so much, and post with such ferver? do you have an ulterior motive?

If it's possible for the US government to be so interested in r/conspiracy that they have an active interest in bringing it down, isn't it also possible that they have people acting as conspiracy theorists posting shite all day to try and discredit the conspiracists? Did that thought ever cross your mind?

I have friend IRL who believe in conspiracy theories - is it part of my agenda to be friends with them too?

Mind me asking how old you are? I'm guessing seventeen.

I'm 33.

It's a common tactic of shills to blame others of all that they are guilty of - admit nothing, deny everything, make counter accusations...

you fit the profile.

mind pointing out any disinfo you think I've posted???

33? That's surprising. Not off the top of my head - can't be arsed browsing all of reddit on my phone, and you will most likely shrug it off anyway.

For examples of you being plain wrong, I can find plenty.

You can't prove I'm wrong even remotely...

You like to post stuff that's unfalsifiable, not my problem. For example:

no one in their right mind follows a subredit so closely for nothing more than to bash it's members.

Wrong straight off - and that's only in this comment thread!

P.s. fancy answering my questions? and another one (from genuine curiosity this time) - why the sudden lull in submissions over the past two week?

continue to wonder...

I will do, it's actually bugging me quite a bit not knowing heh.

because you're a government shill that wants to know exactly what I'm doing...

Nope, genuine curiosity. I'm a naturally inquisitive person.

what a fucking loser. i bet you brag to all the girls you meet that you "work with the government."

you can feel free to try to "defend yourself." but seeing as how you spend all day incriminating yourself, you might as well just stop wasting everyone's time. no, i'm not going to give you an example.

all you do on this website is "credibility building" by posting random bullshit, and then you go around /r/conspiracy and /r/conspiratard acting like everyone who even thinks the government is creepy is insane. you're like the scum of the earth.

and you can save your stupid "counter-arguments" for someone else. everyone knows you people just try to equivocate your way out of everything. just shut your fucking mouth, you loser.

Oh god this is awesome, saving this reply for when I get home.

Heyhey, 10 days late but here it is.

what a fucking loser.

23, Decent Job, Plenty of mates, Good qualifications, Good mind - Don't know what your definition of a loser is. I'm a winner.

i bet you brag to all the girls you meet that you "work with the government."

Hahahahahaha. I work on a fucking helpdesk dude, the women love IT technicians.

you can feel free to try to "defend yourself." but seeing as how you spend all day incriminating yourself, you might as well just stop wasting everyone's time.

I'd like to see an example of this

no, i'm not going to give you an example.

Oh wait.

all you do on this website is "credibility building" by posting random bullshit,

It's fucking reddit, I talk about battlefield, weed, meat, current events and conspiracy stuff here. As I've said countless times, I enjoy debate and I enjoy furthering my knowledge (even if it's random shite). If you think that I'm going to silence myself due to being downvoted and called a shill on here you're wrong.

I've also clearly built up a credible alias of myself over the past 23 years, so much so that I can't remember who I was originally. Not sure how I faked all my baby photos or engraved plates when I was 1 like, but I'm sure I did.

then you go around /r/conspiracy and /r/conspiratard acting like everyone who even thinks the government is creepy is insane.

I have no respect for people who have no respect for evidence, science, logic and fair debate. I hang around /conspiracy because it's fun to read up on what's been propogated and very rarely there's a decent conversation, or I meet someone who is interested in finding out the truth, even if it disagrees with what they've been believing (Charlie Veitch anyone?).

You think I'm some 'the government is wonderful' cocksucker don't you? the government can do nothing wrong, plaise the glorious government! I'm not fucking Kim Jong, I have very valid criticisms of various governments that I rarely get chance to explain here. Just because I don't take your POV doesn't mean that I automatically swallow down the extreme example on the other side of the spectrum.

and you can save your stupid "counter-arguments" for someone else.

I'll save them for someone who knows how to construct a decent retort.

everyone knows you people just try to equivocate your way out of everything

You still reeling over the 'I work for the government' thing? It wasn't incorrect, I didn't imply that I worked for intelligence or anything. Have a bit of fucking humour - I posted it so idiots like you would assume I was. Point proven, cheers.

just shut your fucking mouth, you loser.

Lol, great finalé.

put a sock in it, loser.

Yeah just disregard everything you were wrong about and move on, learn nothing from this experience. Peace bro!

Hmm, genuine question after having a snoop at your comments - http://www.reddit.com/r/atheism/comments/m3mry/to_all_of_you_who_want_us_to_know_not_all/c2xxh3p

Are you actually Christian? if not that's a pretty mature viewpoint you've taken with that comment. I won't hold it against you or anything, just curious.

eh, im not too concerned with who he is. what he points out is true, and kinda funny, as far as my post goes. but it its a non issue, the title of the video has nothing to do with the actual message of the video :)

Well, true to his username you've gotted one side of the story. I'm not a shill/astroturf/mossad agent whatever. The only agent I am is an SPS helpdesk agent.

It's nice to know that my opinions and comments must be that hard hitting as to make people think I'm a shill. I even complained about this in another post that came up today.

Since you're chill and don't seem set in your stone, I'll happily prove I'm not an 'astroturfer' (i've never worked with grass in my life) - just let me know how.

post your phone number, and address. or, lets arrange lunch...

You're American aren't you? I'm British - I'll happily have dinner and I live in Leeds.

I'll PM you my phone number but i'm not giving it out on reddit. I'll grab a throwaway SIM and give that out, but I need this number and can't be arsed with getting hassle from it.

what is your name?

Darrel C******

I bet you have a file on me don't you?

oh, i wasn't trying to bash you or anything, i think it came across that way.

Didnt come across like that mate, just clearing up what that other dude said.

ah, cool cool. Welp, lets go sell us some astroturf!

also, what is the astroturf conspiracy? he claims you are an astroturf agent? the hell is that all about anyways. is there some sort of conspiracy about replacing all the real grass in the planet with fake grass? i would be okay with it personally, my yard has grass burrs, having 5 of those stick you in the feet every day is not fun, or maybe thats somthing astroturf agents put in my yard. I SEE WHAT YOUR UP TOO DARREL WITH A C, I FUCKING SEE!

Fuck, distorted net has discovered the burrs, abort, ABORT!

Cheers for the laugh, i'm having a turd day.

Love the name Hard Hitter Pack. I am gonna make copies of these and distribute them as the Hard Hitter Pack.

haha Awesome. if anyone is interested i could probably archive these and toss it up on a site of mine. its about 1.23 gigs, i have a few more videos i need to add to it that i have not sorted through.

I am interested. And I think that the good moderators of this amazing topic should use that archive as part of a FAQ that can help introduce people to what this sub-reddit is about.

Im putting everything in a rar archive now. it will be on http://vps.somechat.com and mirrored on http://truthnewsdaily.com/videoarchive later tonight, check both links in about 2 hours, uploading will take a bit of time.

edit: it will be about 4 hours. my upload speed is slow as hell, and i only use SCP for file uploading.

brilliance. Youre a good man, charlie brown

hahaha, your screen name is awesome as fuck.

Just commenting to let you know the archive is now uploaded @ http://vps.somechat.com/ i'll have a mirror up soon, it took longer than expected.

thanks, Ill grab it as soon as I free up some b/w

If your interested, now that its on my vps, i can decompress the archive into another folder so you can grab individual videos, as well

Just commenting to let you know the archive is now uploaded @ http://vps.somechat.com/ i'll have a mirror up soon, it took longer than expected.

The Zapruder film outta do it.

piece of crap indeed, AJ is Israeli cointelpro so he and his protege Bermas won't name the stockholders of the FED because then they would find Rothschild in there and Rothschild (family owns 80% of Israel, the BIS which controls most the 1st world central banks, the IMF and WB which control central debts in the third world) with leads to zionism, zionism leads to the history of itself and the creation of the Illuminati, the take over of the masons and modern secret societies such as skull & bones a.k.a today's government puppets. ** That film was supposed to give people the knowledge about where does the whole NWO ideals come from but it doesn't, it just goes around in circles. **

What a moronic statement. AJ has done more to unite and awaken more people than any other person I care to name. He specifically names the Rothschild in "end Game" as the perpetrators of population control so he's hardly giving them a free reign. If you care to do a slithering of research then you will see that he's always on the back of the FED . No one's perfect but it seems like any one mistake he makes, the AstroTurf come along and muddy the water, creating a divide and conquer scenario that specifically detracts from the topic in question.

Do yourself and r/conspiracy a favor and don't be a dick.

'Awaken' and mislead. He 'wakes' people up and keeps them running in circles. He makes people believe that the 'Think Tanks' like Bilderberg are on top. He talks about the 'elite', 'the control freaks' , 'the globalists', 'the powers that be' a bunch of acronyms, never gets into who this people are, their ascendance, their true history, how big a grip they actually have, nothing. I've seen all his films, listened to his radio show for years and know what he's about. If you want to learn about fluoride, chemical warfare, big pharma, corporations like Monsanto, the rest of the food industry, codex, global warming and many other low-level topics I encourage you to go to him . But if you want to know who's the people running things behind the scenes, their backgrounds, history, do your own research. Look for the whistleblowers that are dead. There's a reason why AJ hasn't had a 'heart attack' yet.

Do yourself and r/conspiracy a favor and don't be a dick.

Who entitled you to speak on behalf of all of r/conspiracy?

AMERICA: Freedom To Fascism http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orHVNUnRKlI

Great info, thanks for posting this.

Just quickly watched your suggestion Secret Government http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiRBxDEGDqw&feature=related

WOW my mind was blown. I forwarded that link to a few other people and they were equally amazed.

I feel like "where the hell have I been...have I been asleep all my life?" I feel like I woke up.

Glad to help. I find the stuff that is covered by a big name like Bill Moyers, Norman Dodd, Aaron Russo, etc. really lend some credence to what might otherwise be scuffed off. Not so easy to do when it's somebody that has some serious reputation weight to their words. Check out the resume on Danny Schechter here (he's made a lot of other documentaries too) that wrote and produced "In Debt We Trust".

I'm personally just really excited about this Occupy movement, because it shows people are finally waking up in mass. That's a really great thing!

The Truth And Lies Of 911 - Michael Ruppert (2004) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZNvSX3A7pc

I thought the 2012 movie on Netflix was awesome. Not the doom and gloom version. Its about global conscious awakening.

that was awful. i cant stop crying.

i would like to remind you that your local farmer probably raises his animals in a more open range situation that allows the animals to live a healthy life. i grew up working on a free range cattle farm where calves are kept with their mothers until done nursing and castration done with the rubber band instead of surgery.

please support your local farmer and support healthy livestock conditions.

bbl

Great post. Thanks.

9/11: Conspiracy Road Trip

Most likely the only one in this thread that gives time to both viewpoints rather than just one.

What are the top documentaries that can really help enlighten the lay public?

And people say conspiracists are holier than thou.

Alex Jones is king of the paranoiac crackpots.

Yea i use to like jones, but i take what he says with a grain of salt and research it all for myself. Sometimes he is right, but alot of times he ends up throwing in wild opinions with no evident to base anything on.

Historical facts are one thing, but the tangled webs he weaves from them in his mind are out of this fucking world.

completely agree. I respect him for one thing, though. and that is he encourages you don't even take what he says as absolute fact. go research it yourself. maybe he has a tactic behind his batshittery

Of course he does. Because he knows that the army of loonies that follows him takes his word as gospel and anyone that speaks ill of him has "been gotten to".

I used to like Alex Jones until he showed his true colors in his "interview" with Peter Joseph.
