I hear you loud and clear!
I don’t know enough about Naomi Wolf to comment on her writings but the term “conspiracy theory” is like “decimate”, very few people have ever thought about what it really means, it has become just a “hot button” term. Briefly, a conspiracy theory is just the belief that some action must have been agreed upon by TWO OR MORE people. There is an old song titled “Winter Wonderland” containing the line, “later on we’ll CONSPIRE, as we dream by the fire, to face unafraid the plans that we made, walking in a winter wonderland.” It is about a man and a woman CONSPIRING to be married. The idea that someone has to be a nutcase to believe in a conspiracy theory is just something invented to keep people from thinking clearly.
Some wise person and I’m sorry I can’t remember the name once said that the history of the world is the history of conspiracy, anyone who knows history knows the truth of this but those who scorn “conspiracy theories” usually know almost nothing of history.
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
Ha ha haaaaaa!!! A military takeover of Amerian society! Ha ha haaaaa!!!
Wait. Why I laugh?
However: Then, too, was Sandy Hook, Columbine, and the Aurora Theater shootings.... all to garner support for gun control.
Two can play this game.
Shut up, you paranoid conspiracy theorist freak.
Staged? Kind of like this fake president?
LOL!
Reasonably attractive doesn't make up for crazy.
Is it just coincidence that half of the people at SH were also at Aurora, and the Boston Bluff?
Wanna bet Fuddy's still alive in Indonesia?
sadly true
sounds as if she has been listening to Alex
Insane yes, but not any more insane than the people who claim that the Sandy Hook school shooting never occurred.
> This culminated in a now-deleted post, reproduced below, suggesting that the ISIS beheading videos had been staged, as had the initial abductions of the two American journalists and two British aid workers killed on camera. She hints that she believes this was done by the US military. Like many other journalists who cover the Middle East, I had previously met both murdered American journalist James Foley and his parents (in my case, in 2011) and can attest, although I deeply regret that it is necessary to do so, that they are not actors.
so, what’s her FR nick?
It's not that it never occured, the typical conspiracy kook will tell you it was staged.
Does she think the Moon landings were faked, too?
