Real Truther Says Sayonara to YT and Truthaction

Hey, I think you're just misunderstanding the rules. You're allowed to call people anything you want EXCEPT a shill/agent and it applies to everyone. Everyone is treated the same. Well, ok, you're allowed to accuse certain people of being a shill, but only if they are Mega Disinfo shills and not subtle disinfo shills. Er, actually you may be allowed to accuse the mega disinfo shills of being shills only AFTER there is a consensus by Arabesque, Victronix, and Col. Jenny Sparks, or certain name brand truthers who have proven...to other designated name brand truthers...that they have contributed sufficiently to the movement. Oh, wait, one more thing: "Only mods have the information to confirm a shill, and even then..." but not to worry, imgstacke and Col. Jenny are on top of it, they'll let you know when it's been confirmed. That's fair, isn't it?Ok, let's start over:

Rules of the 9/11 Truth movement:

1) No one is allowed to accuse a "truther" of being a shill/agent/etc., who is advancing positions in SUPPORT of various parts of the OCT or who engages in attacking other truthers who they disagree with.

2) It is encouraged to accuse a "truther" of being a shill/etc., who is advancing positions allegedly in support of SKEPTICISM of the OCT.

3) However, one must first wait for the consensus by self designated truthers such as certain name-brand "truthers" who have proven (to themselves) to have contributed sufficiently to the movement.

4) A posse consisting of Jim Hoffman, Victronix, Arabesque, and Col. Jenny Sparks will enforce the above policies. If need be, additional online truthers can sign up and join with the posse to confirm a consensus.

 

 

I'm not going to name any names, but there are certain individuals who are clearly playing "truth police". It's hard to know if there is a clear and unified objective, or what it may be, but it is clear that certain people are interested in promulgating their version of "Truth" which is not fully consistent with that corresponding to physical reality.

I know that a couple other people who are users here noticed, along with me, that Col. Jenny had posted a video denouncing disinfo agents over at truthaction last night. This video was made at her behest and under her direction. It's a showcase of the usual suspects and then, at the very end... RT! in clips from RT's own "A Day in the Life of Real Truther" as well as a screenshot of our site and the blog advertising our "bling." (Revealingly, the scene she chose to lift from RT's video is NOT the one that shows an interested crowd around his display of bruce1337's great posters in Harvard Square.)

I just felt sick when I saw this last night. As many of you know, Jenny had been a personal, real life friend of mine for a time. I've watched her spiral downward into this bizarre online caricature of herself, the painfully fake British affectation keeping pace with the increasingly authoritarian "Disinfo Superhero" shtick, and felt both pity and anger.

Anyhoo, I commented today, after sleeping on it. A couple of other WTCD users did too, including inside and Elmo. YT dropped by to castigate inside for having multiple user ids (which is just VERY ironic for a number of reasons) because he and Elmo are married and use the same computer to log on. P45 suggested to Jenny that "wanker" is not really the word she wanted to use (saying that if he went out and used it, he'd be carrying his teeth home in his pocket.) Jenny actually ARGUED with him about British slang, at which point I didn't know whether to laugh or to cry.

I posted RT's video, noting that it was the source of some of Jenny's material and that it was an upbeat, inspirational Truthing video, as well as a link to bruce's posters.

Anyway, when I checked back late this afternoon, it was gone. The whole thread. Poof! Like it had never been there.

I think that's bullshit.

Sorry YT, but I have to ask... Is this:

New US Currency 

really so funny that you would ignore the fact that it is put out by the very worst of the worst? People who simultaneously denounce the evil right wing American government while joyfully denying the truth about 9/11 and using their perceived progressive values as a shield for promoting the Islamofascist myth?

Here's one of their top videos from 2007:

OMG that is SO funny, huh? But hey, they're cool, just making fun of evil arab muslims, who after all WERE guilty of 9/11, even though it was Bush's incompetence that allowed them to murder our fellow citizens!

But according to BlimpTV, the biggest threat right now comes from the evil right wing, and we should thank our lucky stars every day for the existence of heroes like Bill Maher, Eric Alterman, and so many other liberals!

What kind of truther promotes such a site for a cheap laugh, without any kind of disclaimer even? Come on, YT, giving shills the run of your forum is one thing, but driving traffic to a gatekeeper site without so much as "I wish they wouldn't be so Islamophobic?"

A new posting from YT states:

I'm not going to be moderating the forum - I have to focus on organizing.

If you have a problem with something on the forum, contact chrisc or siddhartha through PM.

I will try to get a formal policy posting up by the end of the week.

 

Question: What do chrisc and siddhartha have in common?

Bonus Question: Will the time of my inevitable banning from TruthAction be counted in hours or days from now?

 

Actually they banned me... ha! That's the second time I've ever been banned from a site -- the first time was Gold's YBBS.

Or, more specifically, TrueFaction says Auf Wiedersehen to Keenan, since I was apparently banned today.

Like Casseia, no communication. I haven't posted anything today at TrueFaction, so I guess it was a "pre-emptive" action.

For those who answered "hours" for my Bonus Question - DING DING DING DING DING DING DING! You were correct!
