Ahhaha's reply to my latest post on the glorious institution that is the Fed: My post: Message 23225384 Ahhaha's reply (not sure why, but posted on his forum): Message 23230003 His intro to his post is this: "Oh yes, I forgot to add this conspiracy theory post to which I did not write a response" And his summarizing comment was this: I'd say that FED was created in order to protect us from you. Now this is a really a priceless reply (even if it is a non-reply of sorts). For one, I just love the term "conspiracy THEORY" - you know, underhanded collusion can't actually happen "in reality" (as Stephen Colbert might say), but rather, it must be some sort of "theory" (as in an over-stimulated imagination) that is not deserving of a serious response by the gatekeepers of conventional narratives. This, BTW, is classic propaganda tactics (whether or not that was ahhaha's conscious intent or not). There is no attempt to address the facts of the "theory". No analysis of the context of why 7 men representing a phenomenal percentage of the world's wealth (i.e. Morgan, Rothschild, and Rockefellar interests) might have to collude on the playground of the masters of capital on Jekyll island. No analysis of the congressional debates or who had bought and paid for whose voices in the congress and house of the day. Rather, ahhaha dismisses not the narrative, but the story teller - or in this case, me, the conveyor of the narrative. It is basically a form of character assassination - where where you don't address the facts, but rather the sanity, sincerity, or mental capacity of the person holding the opinion or "theory" you wish to negate. And his one-line reply to my post is classic: "I'd say that FED was created in order to protect us from you." So let me get this straight. The Fed, was created behind closed doors under false pretense in order to protect "us" from "me". Well then I have to ask, just who the h*ll is "us"? You mean the American people? Or the banking elites and global ultra-rich? I would offer a deconstruction of your reply to really mean: "I'd say that the FED was created in order to protect us: the global banking elites and ultra-rich" from you: the American people. Understood in that light, I'd say you've hit the nail on the head old man. :) Anyway, always a surreal experience deconstructing your posts mon ami. Regards, Glenn
