Worth repeating.
For those who don't have time or inclination to read to the end, the article's main point is the analogy to Czechoslovakia escaping from communist dictatorship and becoming "Free" in less than 10 years.
The article depicts the actions of one intellectual as exemplar of a pattern of the thoughts of Czech society at large...and by analogy...American society today if we are to emerge free.
No, you got it exactly wrong.
What we say is we WILL WIN because we will DEFEAT THE CONSPIRACY.
I know a conspiracy when I see one.
Crooks was no crazed LONE assassin.
A 20 year old-dietary assistant at a nursing home could never come that close to murdering someone under SS protection without some help.
I think you may have been so put off (as I was) by the straw-man message in the beginning, that you may not have read to the end.
Everybody loves a conspiracy.
I generally don’t buy into conspiracy theories unless it’s obvious like the 2020 Election Steal.
The Left is certainly conspiring to bring about their wet dream of Worldwide Totalitarian Gov’t. That to me is obvious.
But things like the JFK thing will never die.
The article is telling us there are conspiracies, but what we should do is ignore them and go on with our lives.
Looks very much like the author is working for the conspirators.
BWAAHAHAHA
No you don’t. You’re all making excuses for why you’ll fail. sometimes you wrap it in tough talk. But every single one of you is really setting yourselves up for later, when you fail, when you don’t even take the shot, so you have a ready made excuse. “Them”. “They” stopped me. We couldn’t manage to beat “them”. “They” were just too powerful. It’s all excuse mongering your failure ahead of time.
Does that mean that successful people lack imagination?
Ok. Thanks for participating
>>> Successful People Don’t Believe in Conspiracies <<<<
Other than the title’s reference to a Forbes article, a more suitable title for the author’s points might be:
Comfortably Ignorant People Don’t Believe in Conspiracies
Author draws a false dichotomy. Guys a fag.
OK thanks for being completely unwilling to learn.
a clever tease
There Are No Conspiracies but there are No Coincidences either. — Steve Bannon
I took it as ultimately positive.
Rest assured, I LOVE conspiracy theories. At a minimum, they provide a lens through which to measure observable phenomena which are on the surface above an ocean of hidden reality...and ultimately, may focus some of the light of truth on those depths.
Successful people are people READERS and that requires a good sense of internal Q&A. judgement, if you will.
Jesus said not to judge by appearance but (DO) judge righteous judgement.
John 7:24 “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” King James Version (KJV)
If you really enjoy the world of conspiracies and like being around the guys with the most detailed information and expertise who seem to know everything about how the world REALLY operates and the explanation behind EVERYTHING then you want to hang out with the lower socio-economic, lower IQ crowd.
I am amazed at how the world’s secrets and conspiracies are so well known at flea markets and in trailer parks.
Exactly. They’re in on it.
You sound jealous because you are on the outside looking in. Everyone knows we trailer park trash get the news before everyone else because we gots connections.
