Wow. Well said "People playing in a rigged game get stupid." An exploration of "conspiracy phobia" onlinejournal.com
"In other words, crossing the line is synonymous with crossing into the reality that we have long since ceased to live in a democracy and that we now live in a criminal, militaristic empire that is essentially holding us hostage as it takes its war for oil and drugs all over the world for what it shamelessly admits may be the rest of our lives.

"But meanwhile, let us examine the conspiracy phobias we all have and let us be courageous enough to reflect and examine introspectively whatever investments we still hold in the criminal empire, be they in stock portfolios or deep in the trembling recesses of our vulnerable psyches. " |
