Forum Post: Posts are getting dumber

Posts are definitely getting dumber, more partisan, anti Semitic. Is the movement running out of steam or what?

Read the Rules

Agreed. I personally strove to conduct rational and civil discourse, but I gave up. It's become a nut-house, and I now only come here to chuckle at the silliness of a "movement" in decay.

Its because any informed, open minded people left when they read the forum rules.

It's because the site was overrun by jackasses and most of the decent people refuse to even come here now. I'm on my way out too - you try to discuss something and the scum come out of the wordwork. Just saw a post on a thread I started where a guy asked how to get the GPS coordinates of women in OWS in order to rape them. It's just ridiculous. And there's no "report" button to flag posts for removal.

I like free speech. Read what you want. I'm a Libertarian not a whining liberal. I love social security. Jerks took over the Libertarian party, that's why people don't get it.

Americans won't think for themselves.

Americans either want an expert to think for them, many experts know nothing. You still need to choose an expert but there is no thought in doing that. Experts are never going to explain to their victims that they are only 10th best, they are all the best, or Americans want a quote from some big shot. Do they really listen to the quote because that quote is far superior?

Didn't the expert economists who testify before congress or advise the president, destroy the American economy. If it wasn't the experts who designed the strategy that has sunk America, did it all just happen by accident or destiny? I watch sports all the time. The experts are wrong about sports too, most of the time. In the stock market they cover themselves by claiming their advice is long term. There is no definition of long term.

I have been searching for an attorney to sue PIMCO. The class action securities practice is all done on a contingency. From the very beginning of my search I expected to find knowledgeable attorneys who could examine the evidence I presented to them and realize there was no doubt. That hasn't happened yet. They all run to an expert to tell them what to do.

I am very disciplined about using absolute facts with deductive reasoning to arrive at correct conclusions. I've done this since I took a logic course in 1960. I keep it real simple. That doesn't work because 99.999% of Americans are in a trance that is far stronger than I ever imagined. If the trance goes unbroken, nothing will work. People get pissed about the trance. They would rather be called a pervert or anything than admit they are in a trance.

I'll leave it to you to solve that problem. I don't know how to do it.

Do you happen to know any of those coordinates?

We need a new target - how about going en masse to some place full of 1% bankers and taking over the town? Someplace like New Caanan, Greenwich, Darien or Westport. We could bring the fight to our enemy's home turf!

Camp at Seaside Park in Bridgeport. Take the bus to Greenwich.

Bridgeport isn't a target. Greenwich, Darien, or New Caanan should be one. 150 of us could take over those towns and send shockwaves throughout the country. Plus, we could eat like kings and get some really cool threads that don't smell bad. Not to mention new wheels for everyone...
