Propaganda is everywhere.

Here. There.
Your side. Their side.
Just because something is in line with your beliefs does not make it true. Just because something is not in line with your beliefs does not make it false.
Personal insults do not equate to logical superiority. Courtesy and perspective do not equate to weakness and pandering.
Passion is not always genuine. Apathy is not always false.
All the facts are never present. Opinions are never in short supply.
People cannot be told what to feel. It is easy to hear peoples feelings if you listen.
Obvious truths on the surface are often overlooked. Any obvious truth which must be searched for is not obvious.
Always remember your perspective.

I have this feeling that
if this was a chest game we were pawned this week. I understand what you are saying even though we agreed with something how things were carried out did not seem right, so I feel pawned. Where did all those angry people come from emails that got them upset? People who would normally be very balanced and articulate. Did Glenn Beck get them stirred up? Then the joker poster thing, I watched Alex and I am thinking what is happening? I don't know if these things that happened were good or bad.
The elite said this was coming and it was like ok, time for our part in the script. To be honest, I feel like if I do nothing then the NWO don't get their chaos, like screw them. Let Obama, show himself and then his fans will turn on him without our help.
The people at those meetings all wanted the same thing, yet they were ready to tear into each other. Divide and Conquer we will fall like every other country and the bastards who engineered this will walk away laughing at us. You know, there is an old saying " What goes around, comes around" We may not live to see them get due justice but one day it will catch up with them.

So are facts
The question is, what will people look at?

Propaganda is merely the selective presentation of facts.
But you can't draw an accurate conclusion without all the facts D:
CHA-CHING!
CHA-CHING!
Propganda is
taking a small fact and twisting it into something it's not.
Well that's just semantics...
CHA-CHING!
CHA-CHING!
Young Ben agreed with you
Rereading your thread, I noticed the last third was updated, starting at "People...", but reading some of these posts, I don't think they read either version.
Ironic that a tread encouraging our weighing of attitudes, motives, and perspectives more carefully should be seen as the place to run roughshod over the opinions of others.
"I think opinions should be judged by their influences and effects; and if a man holds none that tend to make him less virtuous or more vicious, it may be concluded that he holds none that are dangerous, which I hope is the case with me." Ben Franklin (from a letter to his parents), 1728, (age 22 at that time)
For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst and provide for it. - Patrick Henry
It is all about Priorities
I knew a Hungarian from Budapest that lived through the Hungarian Uprising against the Soviet occupation of his country. I asked Rudy, what did you do when the Russian tanks were putting down the Hungarian revolution. He replied, "The tanks weren't bothering me, so I didn't bother the tanks." The last time I saw Rudy he was still alive and free. There are bold patriots, and old patriots, but there are no old, bold patriots.
I believe your right
but I think this time they plan on getting rid of not just people who won't go along but most of the entire population. Going to be pretty hard to stay out of the way of that.

Only if they use the Chinese army
... not the American army. The Marines will be the first to shoot "They".
great post
happy to see it on the front page.

“A society whose citizens refuse to see and investigate the facts, who refuse to believe that their government and their media will routinely lie to them and fabricate a reality contrary to verifiable facts, is a society that chooses and deserves the Police State Dictatorship it’s going to get.”

When I first read this....
.. I was like "have I been questioning my founding fathers this whole time? Man, I feel bad...", but then I researched who the hell this guy is and I find out that he is some nobody artist who spends more time challanging the apollo moon landings and secondly, the government and "NWO".... Hahaha, then I felt stupid, just for feeling stupid. I thought this was from an important person or something, lol.

I agree with you....
.. And if you research all of my posts, I always try to build bridges between truthers and non. But every time I do, I get called names. I even say that I am open to being wrong, but then they say I AM wrong and they are right, no openess for discussion. Especially on such a peace building post as this. So I try to fight fire with fire.

You gotta
"hang tough", imo.
You are going to get blasted by some people who honestly feel differently...some others, imo, are paid disinformants...
I've encountered the same problem, but will continue to attempt to emphasize that "WE THE PEOPLE" no matter whether Caucasian, Oriental, Indian, Native American, African-American, truther, non-truther, birther, non-birther...whatever our PERSONAL beliefs---must unite...and must focus upon the REAL PROBLEM--the Powers That Be---that the tactics of name-calling, labeling one as racist, et cetera are only used to keep us fighting and divided!!! UNITED WE STAND! DIVIDED WE FALL!

Oooops....
I deeply apologize! I remember, when I first volunteered for the Ron Paul campaign, here in Seattle... I didnt know what to do, so I just went and googled "ron paul activism" and I found a meetup group in Bothell (20 mins north of Seattle) and this sweet little old lady (not that you are "an old lady) who is a recovering neo-con (as I am myself) came over to my house with a bunch of others and handed me a bunch of cool stickers and pins etc... Ahhh, the memories. We sure have come along way!

You made the front page. :)
I didn't realize that earlier because I stay logged in and don't always come in through the front door.
So you're the one leaving the back door open all the time??

You are 100% correct, my friend!!!!
Yet, its a sad truth to see that people obviously feel offended by the things you say because it may reflect on them selves and to combat it, they start attacking. Even a level non biased thread like this. Look, dude, I dont really remember alot of your posts and I made sure I didnt go look at some of your other posts to make an opinion of you (on purpose) because I enjoyed this thread so much. What you said is the absolute truth and it really shows the emotional intelligence of people who will disagree with what you are saying. I am very glad that this is up on the front.
You know, I admire Michael (I have never spoken to or met the man) more than words can say (just because he created a great site like this... ignoring the forum, of course;-) and I would think someone as rational and intelligent I assume he is, is probably agreeing and respecting this thread. I dont have any prejudgments of you (I can see others already do) because I refuse to go see your other posts to try and "dig up dirt" on you. You really speak the truth, my friend. It shows the nature of people who hate hearing their own judgement being questioned. Its human nature, so I try not to get frustrated by it. Thanks brother.
