An Answer to critics of ‘Conspiracy Theories’

[Mad as Fish]

Numbers, dates and symbolism are important, but what is weak is claiming absolutely everything is Gematria, like Michael Freepress.ie does. As if the powers that be would waste so much time to shoehorn their '33' references into every single detail of a potential psyop or for relatively minor incidents. I do believe number symbolism is used in psyops but not to that extent.

I also despise those date-related conspiracies like "X event happened exactly Y days after Z event" or some phrase converted into numbers eventually can be converted into a multiple of 9 therefore 33 etc. Here's an example I'd like to send to Michael Freepress.ie:
View attachment 9001
972 = 9 + 7 + 2 = 18
1 + 8 = 9
= 3x3
= 33

or
9 + 7 + 2 = 18
which is 3x6
so 666


That is really weird. Even playing devil's advocate and trying to find some rationale for the choice to use 666, maybe something to relate it to 999...no way. 666 in not just one, but two different phone numbers as well...

Re the Garda telephone numbers, might I suggest it makes them.easier to remember, think 999, but upside down.

I was thinking that, but c'mon. Could've used 777, 333, 555, anything else. I was wondering if other emergency services have 666 in their numbers. The only phone number I could find was Childline: 1800 66 66 66 or 1800 666 666

Sorry, can't really reply as it looks like all my posts have to be approved by someone here.
I joined at the start of the year and didn't bother posting since.
it's a bit of a strange set up, probably why I didn't bother much.

you are very welcome and your handle promises great things to come .
all the best and enjoy yourself by researching before you post as that is the core of our contributions we add to each others wealth which we spend dealing with our daily world .

Academic chat about conspiracies: it would be good if someone could go along. All welcome, apparently, tho' you might need a vax cert...​

Kieran Keohane's talk looks interesting: actually existing conspiracies of hypercapitalism.​

They are holding it on 11th September, of course...
They will also talk about how labelling someone a conspiracy theorist can be used to shut them down...

This one-day research workshop will explore new critical perspectives on conspiracy theory and mis/disinformation discourse. The ongoing boom in applied academic research to diagnose and debunk conspiracy theories and mis/disinformation is driven by understandable anxieties about the dangers such material can pose. Nevertheless, like ‘terrorism’ – as Critical Security Studies has shown – the label ‘conspiracy theory’ proves in practice to be disturbingly malleable and is now also routinely used to discredit dissenting or unpalatable opinion, contrary to the spirit of critical enquiry and in ways which threaten democratic values. Like ‘misinformation’ and ‘disinformation’, the label ‘conspiracy theory’ positions designated opinions beyond the sphere of legitimate democratic debate, tagging them in readiness for digital destruction and marking their bearers for segregated exclusion.
