Death of Conspiracy Theory

4/26/2013

3 Comments

Conspiracy theory is dead.

That’s because it never existed.

Whether things (allegedly) happen, it hardly matters that the action was planned; it matters a lot more as to WHO planned them and WHO carried them out.

Take the competing theories as to what happened on September 11, 2001.

The official theory says that nineteen hijackers and others planned attacks.

Alternate theories say that others planned the attacks.

Still other theories contend that the events were staged with the goal to frame people for committing attacks.

All of these theories could be characterized as conspiracy theories.

So why bother using this phrase?

It is awfully strange that those who disagree with the official theory are the ones given the label of conspiracy theorists.

The one word missing in the shallow analysis often offered about the events is the word “agent.”

According to Dictionary.com, an agent is one who is a person or business authorized to act on another's behalf

We learned through a Fox News headline today that there was “9/11 plane landing gear found in Lower Manhattan.” Getting to the text, the message softens a bit, to “Part of landing gear apparently from one of the jetliners that crashed into the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, has been found wedged between two buildings.”

Apparently.  The article never tells us which plane the landing gear came from, although it quotes the deputy police commissioner of New York City as saying that the gear has a Boeing number identification clearly identified upon it.

What does this have to do with the concept of conspiracy?

We have been persuaded to believe, from this article, and numerous media reports before it, that the only true theory is the official one.  The wording “from one of the jetliners that crashed…” gives away this presumption.

We have been persuaded to believe that only conspiracy theorists believe otherwise.  By implication, we are to ignore their ideas completely.

We are persuaded to ignore the possibility of agency, in this case the idea that people not privy to the plan could act on behalf of those who made the plan.

With that, the news media which rehashes this “news” will completely ignore what many alternative theorists have said for years: that of the four planes alleged to have been a part of the events of September 11, two of them did not fly and two of them flew well past the time of the alleged attacks on the World Trade Center buildings.

You can believe those who condemn conspiracy theory while secretly supporting one.

Or you can believe those who are willing to present an alternative to a theory that does not work.

What I Said Last Night at Glendale Central Library

I am an avid sports fan and wrote the book A Fan’s Folklore: Six Seasons of Triumph,
Tragedy and Tough Luck
to revive baseball and football in the 1970s. By writing about the athletes, coaches and  games, I learned some things about myself.

 I remember Lyman Bostock, an outfielder who signed a large contract with the
California in early 1978.Though he was an exceptional (.300) hitter, he batted a dismal .147 in April 1978.

He went to the owner of the Angels, Gene Autry (the singing cowboy) and
told Autry that he was giving his money back because HE HAD NOT EARNED
IT.
 
Bostock’s integrity was exceptional. His shocking murder a few months later was tragic.They simply don’t make athletes like him anymore.
 
Writing  books allows me to reach people I would not otherwise reach. My writing about the “Immaculate Reception” is a case in point. On this controversial football play, it is a mystery who actually touched the ball, a question the referees had to guess in order to rule on the ending of a playoff game.
 
Using social media, I got the attention of one of the players involved in the play,
John “Frenchy”Fuqua. He emailed me back and told me he was going to show people like me that the play, which benefit his team the Pittsburgh Steelers, was “miraculous.”
 

A Fan’s Folklore
informs the reader as to some of the most remarkable players and games in baseball and football history.It asks the reader to place themselves in the position of those who played the game and ask what they might have done.
 
Consider the so-called “Holy Roller” in which Oakland Raider quarterback Ken Stabler was about to be tackled by an opposing player as time ran out on the game.As the other player was about to grab his throwing arm and toss him to the ground, he had a split-second to decide whether to “cheat” by rolling the ball forward in the hopes a teammate could make a play or to quit by falling on the ball.

How does that sound – Be a cheater or be a quitter?

From this context, the players teach us about ethics in a way that nothing else
could. So grab this book and learn a little about yourself!

How a Minority Makes the Rules

A small group of people owns most of the wealth

This is true in the United States and in most other nations

This group, which I will call the GROUP, does not want to share its wealth

They make money through defense contracts and ownership of resources like oil

They have the inside information on stocks

They fund the politicians and usually know them personally

The politicians grant them favors which help them extend their wealth

They cover this truth up through their ownership of the media

There is no future

The future is only something we project our fears and hopes onto

The past keeps changing

We only re-interpret it

The past happened the way the GROUP tells us it did

“Lone gunman” “Nineteen” “Aggression”

Those who know better change the past

But the PICTURE remains the same because the GROUP holds its channel

The PICTURE tells the only story spoken aloud

If you speak against the PICTURE you never appear on it

And you are given a label

“Conspiracy Theorist” “Dissenter” “Traitor”

The GROUP keeps its story going without you

They have what they want

The GROUP has no need to round us up

It would be a waste of their time

The only prison we face is in our own minds

There is only one thing really happening

A tug of war

The GROUP vs Us

The PICTURE show this as a war of words

In coded language

“Support the war” = “Support the troops”

“Remember the victims”

“Don’t engage in class warfare”

The GROUP wants us to leave well enough alone

As if they are fighting for us

Ask a hungry person with a pizza pie in front of them

How many times they are willing to split it up

Ask a tax payer if they would voluntarily

Pay more in taxes

Ask the house in Vegas

How it stays in business

It is not in human nature to share what one believes they need

The GROUP is full of humans

They believe they need more power, more resources, more money

They get it by pushing for wars, “national security” and other hoaxes

If you accept their story, you will get what you deserve

But if you don’t - - -

Turn off the PICTURE and tell the GROUP you have your own story

Would You Follow an Illegal Order?

4/6/2013

1 Comment

 
Would you follow an illegal order?

Experiments, such as the Milgram Experiment, have concluded that people will break their own moral code if conditioned under certain circumstances.  In that experiment, the person running it would tell the subject to ask questions of another person.  Upon receiving incorrect answers from the other person, the subject would be told to order shocks to be given to them.

Unbeknownst to the subject, the other person was an actor secretly helping those who ran the experiment.  Separated by a wall from the subject, the actor pretended to feel serious pain from the shocks.  Overwhelmingly, the subjects, at some point told that they would not be held responsible for the harm, would continue to administer the shocks.

In a municipality recently, the head of Code Enforcement made a remark we have probably all heard frequently.  When asked why he did not charge a city official with permit violations, he said he was “just following orders” from supervisors who urged him not to pursue the matter.

Before we make any moral judgments of those discussed here who went along with actions they knew or should have known were wrong, we could start by asking ourselves:

What would we do?

Few people are comfortable with the idea of standing alone in advocating a point of view.

Few people are willing to risk repercussion from authority.

Few people have the ability to see themselves as part of the orders they carry out, especially when given the choice to displace the blame on the ones who gave the orders.

The morality of an order depends upon the followers’ willingness to equate their responsibility to that of those who give them.
