I don't agree with vacuous or little but programmed minds, yes.

Fucking amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have a thread filled with people on both the left and the right denouncing the OP, but somehow you manage to turn it into a partisan issue.

Way to go Popeye! 

Keep showing us how a moderate Independent thinks.

I highly suggest these videos for anyone who prefers critical thinking to the reinforced drone behavior inherent in the present system that encourages voting, right vs left, dems vs repubs and a number of other fallacies created in the Noble Lie.


What like critical thinkers vs. drones?

Yea, that one amazed me also. And up until his post I thought we were going to be safe from it. Go figure.

BEING a critical thinker versus BEING a drone.

Dude, the Noble Lie is about creating drones and keeping them from critical thinking. You have personal choice in being a critical thinker versus being a drone, though it isn't so easy to see if one isn't aware of the lie in the first place.

Nice try. Now watch the video.

Clearly I'm not kissing ass and therefore not seeking appeal.... quite honestly.

I liked the high school valedictorian's speech, the Richard Dreyfuss comments, and of course, George Carlin is always a classic!

The rest, eh.... 

Editing and composition sucked.

Agreed.

I'm willing to give them some leeway in production since they probably don't have access to equipment and people that a major network has. (probably a good thing tho) They make a lot of good points about entertaining the overall 'Noble Lie' in ways a lot of people don't consider.

Opinion (within guidelines of the forum) is one of the few things that I am entitled to, here or anywhere.

What I have found interesting is that the majority of people so far in this thread have all done pretty much the same thing in only attacking me as an individual, with no real valid comment on the subject matter itself. If that isn't drone behavior I don't know what is. Proving my OP. It's certainly not critical thinking and that too is my opinion as arrogant as it may seem to others.

Then again what's obvious to me isn't always obvious to others.

Ok, OP. Look.

There is no noble lie.

I spent a long time researching that shit. I used to be all about the Illuminati when I was a kid, but the facts just don't hold. Take the WTC conspiracy theories for example. Learned all kinds of things about heat, thermodynamics, and queefing. I learned about the unique floating trusses system and why it mattered. About the drywall in the elevator shafts, and why the materials were chosen (engineers were worried that the elevators would go boom if they used normal 'elevator' shafts. Fuckin' ironic, that.) I read reports on the chemical compositions of the dust particulates. I studied professional demolitions of similar buildings, or at least as similar as it's possible to find. I found that... there was no government conspiracy, and that sometimes you can hit a building with a motherfuckin' plane and it will fall down.

But because I say there's no 9-11 conspiracy, I get called a sheep. I'm the blind one. Since I spent the time to actually understand the physics involved, I can't even fucking talk to normal people about it, because the language doesn't translate even though it's all english.

I probably also know a hell of a lot more about macroeconimics than you do, buddy. Without sticking your tail in your shithole and googling it, can you hold a fucking intelligent debate on the differences between Keynesian policies and policies based on behavioral economics, and where the fuckin' venn diagram of the two meet and where it diverges? Can you tell me what policies the current administration is basing its actions on? And who the lovely bitch is running the show there, what her qualifications are, and why she could kick your ass at Youtube vids?

Ill bet you're even wondering why I'd bring up an understanding of macroeconomics, not making the connection between it and the topic of your fuckin' educational series. Eat a cock, op. Study some information theory. Leave off the preaching until you have something important to say, because buddy, this ain't it.

well Im sorry for you that you can only play with a few labels... most of your labels do not apply to me, however, there are few that do. However your comprehension isnt spot on, if it were, you would accept that there are many ways to be a critical thinker and still pass as sheep to the arrogant eye.
The path of learning is never ending.

Edited to add, I do NOT consider myself to be any better than anyone else, altho I realise that this post may seem Im claiming that.I am NOT:)

Oh shit, oh dear.  9-11 was mentioned.

Ah, well.

Anyway, back to the OP.  So if we do as we are told and watch the video, then we will become critical thinkers.  But if we either a) don't watch the video, or b) disagree with the video, then we are deluded sheeple.

I could sit out here and go "Oh wow, that totally blew my mind, dude!  I now divine the Noble Lie!!", while laughing my ass off.  And you, being a critical thinker, would consider me enlightened.

This reminds me of when I watched a scientology video for lulz.

I laughed at the part where he said criticize and review it like this and then threw the TV. I am an advocate of critical thinking via smashing shit.

There is no noble lie. Just like there was no fucking conspiracy to blow up the WTC.

The Noble Lie isn't about the 911 conspiracy. It's about the overall method of controlling people through government (all types) by Nobility rule. It's been around since the Sumerians brought gods to bare on society. Caste and class systems created to favor those who think themselves noble and above others and hence deserving of a better life than mere peasants like you and I.

It's about how they create fallacies to further the divide between us and them. Approx. 5% of the population enjoys 95% of the wealth, while the remaining 95% of the population struggles over the meager 5% of remaining wealth. (I'm not talking about money but wealth) It's about how they have you thinking that your vote matters, that you too have a chance to make it big in life, when clearly there is no proof to support this because the Nobles will not surrender their wealth or their power. Yes a few people get lucky but not even close to enough to make a difference in the balance of power and wealth, much less the simple 'equal' enjoyment of life.

They go to different schools, created only for them and they can keep you out because you either are not in their class or more likely cannot afford it. (thanks to capitalism you think you don't deserve that education because you haven't made it big and you bloody accept that as a matter of fact without thinking, "hey this is fucking wrong".. ) That's just one avenue that is cut off for you and billions of others. There's advanced medical care, access to the smartest brains in any subject on the planet, there's bailouts and money for the rich and many more things going on. Even when they give you a few bucks, (of your own btw) it's heading back into their pockets.

Capitalism and democracy are the greatest fallacies ever created by the Nobles. There have been zero rebellions, and zero revolutions since it's inception. In fact they are now attacking countries and forcing them to conform. Thats how well capitalism and their 'democracy' works on most people and if it works, they'll do it all over the place. They don't need fascism, capitalism is gold for them.

I'm not going to debate 911. (maybe another thread but I've had my fill of that shit for now) My opinion differs from yours and I too have researched it but both our opinions come down to our sources and their validity as well as having to believe in some external truth maker that makes no difference to how we live. Science isn't going to decide our history. If it does we are not thinking critically but accepting those external truth makers as our guides. Politics is just bait, just the hook to keep us from thinking about how unequal this fucking world really is.

It's about Noble's and serfs, not 911 or conspiracies. I don't care who did it anymore. In the end it's still a result of powerful people exerting influence over some serfs who dare to speak up. Are there some idiot serfs that can be manipulated into doing stupid shit. You bet, that's what the Lie is about.

Then they are doing it wrong.

Well, I haven't watched the videos, but based solely on the responses from the poster that started the thread, they seem to have completetly failed to teach him anything about thinking.
