Slow day guys? :lol:

I wish we had a few more conspiracy guys on here, its my favourite pass time. Knightwire I was disappointed that you didn't get my 11,780 comment last night, especially considering all the comms the conspiracy guys seem to have caught on to this last few days.
Are you trying to say that you're NOT a 'conspiracy guy'?

I don't think of myself as anything, why would I label myself. I just like to float around taking in everyone's perspectives and form my own judgement. I very much enjoy conspiracy theories but I dont think that gives me a qualification. I'm not trying to be one of those unconscious people who label themselves... you know, like those people who call themselves sports traders in their twitter bio but have never made a penny.

You seem like a fairly solid conspiracy theorist to me, you've posted enough of them.

As for the Twitter thing I wouldn't know, I don't describe myself as anything in my bio.

Well lets see. Biden tried to do it from Gitmo. Until he was executed (remember when Trump repeatedly said "Sleepy Joe's shot" in his rallies? He wasnt kidding). I dont think the body double - who clearly is nothing like the original Biden - they have since wheeled out over the last year or so has done a particularly good job though!
Does this mean you're just taking the piss and not being serious?
No Derek, im very serious. My screenshot of my bet back in November is proof of that :-)

The only difference between me and you Derek is that I take time to dig deep and look at alternative media sources other than main stream media. The fact that you didnt have 20 minutes to watch a video i linked earlier suggests to me that you dont dig as deep as me?

Most people base their decisions in life based on what comes out of their television box. But there is a lot more to what is happening than what gets reported.

If you had dug deeper, you would have seen the video clip of the following people ALL getting "envelopes" at George Bush's funerals. Envelopes which, when they opened them, made them all look scared and VERY worried.: Jebb Bush, JOE BIDEN, Jill Biden, George Bush, Mike Pence, Hillary Clinton. I wont tell you what the envelopes apparently said, but if you ever seek out that video clip - which *I* have seen, and which was NOT shown on main stream, as far as i know - you will understand why its reasonable to assume that most, if not all, of the aforementioned, have already been executed for treason, and replaced with either body doubles or actors or cgi (for staged tv appearances).

Believe me, i wouldnt be typing all this just for fun! I have been studying this daily, almost non-stop, for many months now, comparing the narrative of both main stream and alternative media. And my conclusion is that mainstream is a complete gaslight operation, and full of lies.

Believe whatever you choose to believe, its a free world (well, it was, until communism tried to take over this last year lol) but we are all entitled to our opinons, and im just sharing mine :-)
The difference between you and me is that you dig deep, believe what you prefer to believe and ignore what you don't want to hear.

Intelligent people don't choose what to believe. They assess the weight and credibility of the evidence, separate the facts from unsubstantiated claims and then the facts and evidence determine you're point of view. It's a fact that you're full of bullshit! You make claims about Biden being killed and replaced with a lookalike, you're deluded into thinking the entire world is fooled and you can see through it, yet you can't understand why people don't waste hours of their time listening to you - when you don't even explain your conclusions!

I never said you did, don't get a complex... you know the type though.

You can think of me what you like, I'm not fussed, it's in your head not mine. I enjoy them, so I've posted them... I also once changed the brake pads on the Mrs car and enjoyed that too but I'm defo no mechanic.

Derek, Biden hasnt already won! The main stream media dont decide who wins the election. Its very clear that that doesnt get decided until TODAY !

https://www.archives.gov/electoral-coll ... zHPwO4XcH4
He has won, it's just getting formalised today. :D

I know there's talk about objections but have you actually read about the constitutional process and what is required to throw a spanner in the works?

My guy in Washington says Pence will announce the winner as Biden today and pointed me at this article which he confirms is the way that Pence will avoid the messy exit of Trump. It all looks well planned to me: -

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/17/pence-t ... ictor.html

cnbc is deep state, just trying to push the narrative and further gaslight the population into believing that Biden is a legitimate winner. Total fake news! :-)
Let's face it, anyone who disagrees with you is deep state. I recall an episode of Star Trek where everybody on a planet was just a figment of the visitor's imagination. Do you think it could be a reality? ;)

lol James! Unfortunately for you, your scepticism means you are going to miss out on the huge 1.02 lay for Trump to leave in 2021 !
Reminder (for the 2nd time today): you advised people to back Trump in the election market and despite losing thousands you're still giving betting advice!

Mike Pence will probably want a shot at president himself at some point in the future.
Don't see it happening, I think Lord of the Flies already holds a credible enough title.

I linked to that article because my guy, who works in the legislature in Washingston, said that was what is going to happen. He already knows what is going to happen.
Fair enough if that is what your contact says. Ive heard from people a bit higher up than that, and i get a very different story! Time will tell! :-)
What do you mean by a bit higher up? Pay grade? Authority? Euler didn't even say what position this guy has so you must be talking through your arse.

I heard from big chief - ruler of the universe, he said Biden's won - end of argument. :)

It would be difficult for Pence to run for presidency when all Trump has to do is open his big mouth from his prison cell and inadvertently put an end to Pence's prospects. :)

Was thinking more about your comment & the content that I share on this forum, which is probably by far Alan Watts... which I do because I enjoy philosophy, in particular his philosophy lectures & it seems others have enjoyed them too. I would say that my 3 favourite things are conspiracy, philosophy & psychology (none of which I claim to be.) I guess I'm just interested in what people do and say, regardless of my beliefs. I have no issues with you labeling me, I think we all probably do it to each other, but I would say in all honesty that my interests imo don't define my beliefs & I think we've had that conversation before.

Or i should say, any one interest doesn't define my beliefs or me as a person.
