So, was googling for pictures of the Space Shuttle earlier on and stumbled across THIS website which I thought I'd share.
I know it is, basically, just another troofa site but, honestly, I watched that "king kong man" video and it gives me this irrational desire to do serious harm to whoever was responsible.
I mean, seriously, I get that the guy must be pretty sure that all this wacky stuff like 9/11 is just a "hoax" but, y'know, did it never occur to him, just for a second, that if he's wrong and 9/11 was a real thing, that video is horrendously, sickeningly, face-punchingly, disrespectful and insulting to the people featured in it?
Your head has to be pretty firmly lodged up your own arse if you're so sure that you're right that you completely ignore the possibility that something you're doing or saying is immensely insulting to somebody if it does turn out you're wrong.

The only bit about 9/11 that is suspicious to me is building 7. I know it had damage on one side and was on fire, but should it really have collapsed like that?
People that run websites like that, it must be like a hobby to them, even they don't believe all the nonsense surely.

What a bunch of nutters on that website.
"Man or sim in blue coat moves without the aid of his legs and feet. It’s too funny."
Its a video of a man who leans his upper body to his left but the loons are convinced he is walking, i dont get it at all
Very much agree. The one I think that will always stick in my mind is when one of these people apparently rang the mother of one of the children murdered at Sandy Hook to tell her that her child didn't actually exist.
And you know they most likely truly believed that as well.
That's the thing with people, most of us are convinced that not only are we right, but we are good people. The people making those allegations just can't see how ridiculous they are, and instead of thinking that there is a risk of them doing something awful, if they are wrong, they believe they are doing something righteous.
There are small a group of American gun nuts who think that the Dunblane massacre was faked as an excuse to tighten gun laws, and they've been around since before Sandy Hook happened. Once they've decided that one community in a far off country would go along with it, it's not such a huge step to presume that a second would. Except that by the time Sandy Hook happened, the nature of news media would make it even tougher to fake.
For those sorts of people, it's not about the practicalities of how everyone in whole towns would have to be in on it, or the difficulty of producing fake footage for a string of different news agencies. It's much more about the idea that the government would employ such tactics if they could, so they may as well presume they have.
I suppose that's a question that can only be answered by proposing how it should have collapsed.
Apart from that, though, if everything was faked, then including Building 7 in the list of buildings rigged to fall really does seem an unnecessary complication. My suspicion is that, apart from CT-ers and those who marvel at their ways, most people aren't even aware that any buildings apart from WTC1 and WTC2 were involved, so it's not like the fall of WTC7 was some iconic moment that summed up the day.
I watched that too.
He seems to be so caught up in the whole "Aha! I noticed something odd!!!!" thing that he doesn't even bother to address the issue of why it might have been done.
What's the logic behind that "revelation" supposed to be?
Okay, we're going to fake a mass-shooting.
We've hired a heap of people to play the roles of the kids, parents, teachers, local residents and police.
They're all sworn to secrecy so they won't be a problem but, dammit, we really needed a shot of some random guy in a blue jacket and none of the people we hired had one so we're just going to have to edit it in using Adobe After Effects.
I mean if that was supposed to be, say, Elvis, who'd been caught on camera at the scene then you could understand why there might be some debate over whether it was real or the video had been manipulated in some way but why go to the effort of using CGI to add in a random bored-looking dude in a blue jacket?
As usual with troofa stuff, I suspect the reality is far more mundane and that the video is an enlargement from the periphery of a wide-angle shot and the perspective appears to change when the camera zoomed in or out.
Assuming, of course, it's not just a flat-out lie manufactured BY the troofas, like the whole "9/11 rivers of lava" video, or the "Lee Rigby's killer with no blood on his hands" video or the "Temple Mount UFO" video etc....
And of course the inevitable corollary, that if you don't believe their CT then you're obviously a fool who has ultimate trust in governments not to lie.
But yeah, I agree with the OP. I think it's part of the whole "other people's tragedies are there for my amusement" thing that seems to have gone into overdrive since the internet became a thing.
You know, I could, possibly, given some convincing evidence be convince of the validity of any one conspiracy theory, but this sawn-off shotgun (with about a 2" barrel to get that kind of dispersion) approach really is bizarre.
I mean... sinkholes? What is the sinister agenda that is supported by having people believe that water washing away soft soil beneath a harder surface leads to holes suddenly appearing?
Edward Snowden, apparently, is a fake too. Now, I'd have thought that CT-ers would welcome his intervention as proving that governments really are as nefarious and untrustworthy as they've been saying all along.
Is he saying that 9/11 didn't happen ... that it was just faked on TV? (so the WTC must still be standing but nobody's noticed!)
or is he saying that it did happen ... but TV used fake images? (Which they all managed to prepare beforehand so they could transmit them as the event was happening)
He says how come the 'victims' families haven't spoken out after 5 years (at the time of writing), when they obviously have! He says all these things never happened, a total insult to those who lost their lives, those who survived and those who lost family and friends (not just in 9/11)
A complete and utter prat, to put it politely!
Personally, I think they guy only has two brain cells ... but they're not talking to each other! :cool:
