    Who's the Dumbass Now?

    I've been ridiculed by my family, son, friends. And I told them, in time you will see what I've been saying for years, is true.

    Back in 2008, to say that your whitegoods would be talking to each other, that your TV would be spying on you, sounded absolutely nutty, I know.

    This might be a good video to pass onto friends and family. (Except you might like to change the title to something less offensive). But then you can't.

    When i pass things on (usually health related) my family dont even acknowledge they hav received them- ie it doesnt exist, if not acknowledged, a bit like conflict/problems, mmm living far away has its advantages

    Hi lookbeyond,

    I tried to engage my very spiritually enlightened brother, who is 'way up there' in terms of being a teacher, to the idea that fluoride in the water was a poison. I showed him some things on the net, in particular, Dr Mercola. He said he read it word for word, not a 'read scan', then said to me, 'if it's such a bad thing, why would the government do something like that?'.

    I realised I was on a hiding to nothing and kept my gob shut. It's not worth my relationship to even go there.

    I too, pass on things 'health related' and get no response. I have family members with chronic skin cancers, I pass on stuff, get no response and wonder why I even bother. I am wasting my time. In the meantime I am seen as a nutter and conspiracy theorist and meanwhile they will die from their therapy. It makes me very sad.

    They say hindsight is 20/20, but it's really not. People who don't want to accept something will continue not to accept it even when the evidence has been presented.

    except

    the presenter/s alex and the other one, are skillfully spinning it a wrong way. imo to further mislead. the surveylance system isn't there to isolate (potential) crime as they put it and jones and other commentator want you to panic about because and of course we are all innocent unless proven guilty.. imo, they are craftily moving the goal posts and not even commenting on the possibility that this tech. is being employed to identify the SANEr ones, healthy members of society to deal with at some later, not too far off date.

    i said saner and not sane, because the truly sane and healthy ones do not switch on or possess Tv, don't do smart phones.

    that's my take on this, i appreciate not many might agree.

    That is the worst....so frustrating. My physician friend face books all the medical industrial complex crap and when she posted the top 6 conspiracies (she's a big vaccine pusher) I asked her about fluoride and she says "I have seen areas with poor dental health" or some effing BS...it's just sickening.

    The fact it is industrial waste isn't even really that obscured, the sense it takes to think its a bad idea to purposely put ANYTHING into the water supply seems to be the most intuitive ever, the amount of cognitive dissonance the idea requires is friggin insane to me
    What is the purpose of your presence?
