Ok, so make another ad hominem and non sequitur.

What's funny is you're implying that education (gained knowledge) and stupidity (implying someone is inherently unintelligent) are the same thing.

I've met college dropouts that were brilliant open-minded people, and I've met Ivy Leaguers that were dumb as dog shyt but were booksmart.
Its 2014. Everyone has access to the same information. Stupid people are much more likely to misinterpret whats going on.

I was really only asking if you every sat back and analyzed your worldview and thought that maybe you were an idiot.

I appreciate that breh.
the thing with this situation is I don't think the U.S. wants to put boots on the ground to take out ISIS. They're either gonna make the kurds do it or pressure Israel and the nearby allies to do something about it. ISIS actually wants the U.S. to put boots on the ground and engage in a head to head war with them. I don't think thats what will happen, so there isn't really a need to fake these videos. These journalists were legitimately kidnapped by ISIS, some a year+ ago.

Just because someone misinterprets something doesn't make them stupid. Intelligence is contextual.

I would never judge someone's worldview if I disagreed with it using words like "stupid" or "smart". The only time I think I'm an idiot is when I make a bet on a team and in hindsight realize it was a stupid bet. Those are the only times I've ever thought I'm an idiot.

In my opinion ISIS is a rabid pitbull we caged and prodded and set loose. I'm not saying they don't exist, I just think their leadership are puppets of Israel and the US. The footsoldiers doing the dirty work are just going on a rampage.

We might've prodded them, and we might've had dealings in the past where they helped us but I think they're acting on their own now. What is the goal of Israel/The U.S. in this stuff in your opinion?

Im moreso trying to ask you if you ever doubt what you believe in and think you might be misinterpreting everything or if you go in with these specific thoughts in mind and fashion your story around what you want it to be. Its an honest question that should be in the back of your mind at all times. I see brehs on this forum are so rigid in their views where its either always a conspiracy or it never is. I find that ridiculous and its mostly due to the fact that theyre applying their own biases to each story and attempting to fit it in with their own worldview. That kind of behavior is dull as fukk.

Intelligence might be contextual, but its also relative. If you are misinterpreting things at a higher rate than the average person, I would bet that this person is below average in the intelligence department. These things are correlated.

Also, I'm not sure how old BuddyOmar is but I went through a whole conspiracy phase when I was like 18,19 and to a lesser extent 20 where I believed all the alex jones shyt and that everything was a conspiracy and everyone else were sheeps who didn't believe etc. Now most of it is ridiculous to me. There have been some legit conspiracies out there like operation northwood.

and it's not just us. Germany just sent the kurds a bunch of weapons and shyt.
only problem with isis is that your going to have to force them back to syria and keep them there

the only way to truly get rid of the problem is to go into syria and kill them all

War is big business for certain people. Military, private military corporations, etc. They want a piece. Aside from that, it's more posturing.

Aside from natural resources, it's another domino for when we eventually target Iran.

Syria is a big part of the strategic puzzle. With Iraq and Syria and Afghanistan we are set-up perfect for a two-front invasion of Iran. That won't be for another couple decades tho.

I did too. Same age. Guess I wanted to appear knowledgeable but didnt actually put in enough time reading and learning to know whats what. Being up on everything is a very large time commitment that some people aren't willing to do or arent capable of.

:heh: Again, misinterpreting something doesn't mean they're stupid. People with dyslexia and dysgraphia misinterpret basic words all the time, that doesn't mean they're below average in intelligence. Stupid people aren't concerned with these matters, period. There are no stupid people in this thread. Critical thinking is not the trait of an idiot.

I do not think I'm misinterpreting anything by the way.

21. I don't listen to Alex Jones, period. He's a zionist shill who profits off the psuedo-conspiracy business. I don't post religiously on abovetopsecret or inforwars. I'm not a neckbeard. I'm just someone who grew up around military folks and studied military history. I wanted to join the military since I was about 8 years old so I naturally read up on a lot of this as a hobby.
