Internet Conspiracies becoming Mainstream

[Greyblades]

That is not what he said...
But from your reply, I presume you are a follower of the Conspiracy theory.

Here is a summary of the PizzaGate saga by the BBC

It is exactly what he said: "Ridiculous conspiracy theories becoming too close to mainstream"

With the use of the word "mainstream" not "reality", unless it was a typo, hooahguy said ridiculous conspiracy theories that become widely known about, not proven to not be ridiculous.

And yes I am a follower of the conspiracy in that I have read through it and find reason to suspect some awful things have been happening behind the scenes in the Clinton campaign, whether this resteraunt has anything to do with it is a minor detail and something the feds should be looking into not the denizens of reddit or this gun toting imbecile.

Just a couple of words for this - beyond worrying. When facts are all of a sudden irrelevant, we have a huge problem on our hands.

I found the BBC Article helpful in explaining why LeftEyeNine was taken up with this conspiracy, I was wondering why he was the one to bring it up. Turns out, it was used as a propaganda stunt by Erdogan to try to obscure domestic issues and abuse.

Child Abuse in the UK is taken very seriously. With the Jimmy Saville investigations, and the current high-profile Fifa investigation with Football coaches grooming young footballers. Such "In your face" conspiracy would be investigated and dealt with swiftly by authorities. In fact, authorities would have looked after the Reddit material themselves, because it is in their interest to do so. If there was anything behind it, it would be dealt with.

Even in the US, they were investigating Anthony Weiner due to Sexting minors. It was his Laptop which was seized and investigated, which led to an potential reopening of the Clinton case by the FBI Director before the end of the election which cost Clinton the presidency. I am pretty sure if there was smoke, they would be all over it.

With the use of the word "mainstream" not "reality", unless it was a typo, hooahguy said ridiculous conspiracy theories that become widely known about, not proven to not be ridiculous.

It is clear from intent, that Hooahguy was is expressing disapproval over the fact 'ridiculous conspiracy theories' are becoming closer to 'mainstream', in terms of popularity and spread. He further attributes this spread in causing to happen. He is not advocating or supporting it in any shape or form.

It is linked to a dismissal word, "ridicule-ous" as in "worthy of ridicule", through its use his opinion is clearly stated, as is yours.

As for its spread as a turkish ploy, that is a poor reason to dismiss it. Pizzagate came from internet denisens extrapolating information gathered from the podesta emails. That it became mainstream from the actions of Turkey is ultimately irrelevant to it's veracity.

As for the lack of investigation I think you are woefully underestimating the ammount of collusion with hillary that infested the obama administration

It seems pretty clear (to me) that it's a fabrication.
Most of the threads are false, the few facts amount to bupkiss and the conclusions are delusional.

It's not usually me doing this but first the wonkett and now thedailybeast, have you considered that your primary sources might be a tad biased Bunny?

So is this the thread wherein I claim to be the son of D.B. Cooper?

Haha, nice try. A video you posted in the POTUS thread about another Hillary "scandal" was created by a notorious fraud who tried to illegally wiretap a senator's office (he pleaded guilty for that, btw). You responded with something along the lines of,That doesn't invalidate his message. Prove him wrong!

You are gifted with amazingly poor self reflection.
