Just to clarify, I wrote "he is extremely anti conspiracy theory'. I wrote that because Wictor receives a lot of flak, leftist hate, disinfo and has had death threats. Literally today, he stated he was through reasoning with people and will block those pushing unsubstantiated conspiracy theories.

I agree Thomas Wictor is a ball of contradictions and he is the first to admit that he is. He's been pretty transparent about how messed up an individual he is. He actively discourages people from following him on twitter, which is an assured way of gaining followers. He has written about pretty horrific experiences he was forced to witness as a child growing up in Venezuela via two books he's written.
These and some health issues turned him into a reclusive internet researcher. All that aside, what he presents is still majorly insightful.

My opinion is somewhat different. As soon as I discovered a few truths and began talking to friends, I found that anyone using that term conspiracy theory would just shut the discussion down. It drove me bananas and I started researching the how and why.

I finally discovered and read Lance deHaven Smith's "Conspiracy Theory in America" which is a great, academically referenced research piece into the term. The entry point is the discovery of the CIA memo that used the term in relation to a campaign to discredit anyone disputing the findings of the Warren Commission Report. deHaven Smith takes it much further, looking at earlier usage of the term and also the entire concept of crimes against democracy and their covering up.

We are on a difficult road towards truth. Not only do we have 50+ years of Government cover up, secrecy, corruption and crime, we have the bought and paid for attack media and the media brainwashed general population to contend with as well. Then on top of that, we have false truth sources, limited hangout truth providers, fame over truth whores and the list goes on.

My philosophy is to absorb what resonates, ignore what doesn't and build what I believe to be the truth as I see it. Which is why I began blogging about a month or so ago. Very difficult exercise, but I am determined and committed to it. Not trying to be competition to anyone or anything. If I can educate people then that is a good thing.
