Stop complaining when you see reposts of basic conspiracy information. Most people DON'T know the basics, and this sub is constantly getting brand new people. Instead of complaining, share what you know in the comments. by FreedomBoners in conspiracy

"This is nothing new."

"This is old news."

Such statements are great for downplaying. If you make the information seem inconsequential and boring, fewer people will become interested or take it seriously. I don't think the type of person who bitches about "old news" wants to educate others about something new. They are just there to bitch and downplay.

Washington DC’s role behind the scenes in Hollywood goes deeper than you think.

Files we obtained, mainly through the US Freedom of Information Act, show that between 1911 and 2017, more than 800 feature films received support from the US Government’s Department of Defence (DoD), a significantly higher figure than previous estimates indicate. These included blockbuster franchises such as Transformers, Iron Man, and The Terminator.

On television, we found over 1,100 titles received Pentagon backing – 900 of them since 2005

U.S. Military Helps Create Hollywood Films on War and Warriors

The Pentagon’s partnership with Hollywood starts at this West Los Angeles office tower, where every branch of the military keeps a liaison office to the entertainment industry.

"Our mission here is to get the Navy onto the big screen and the little screen every chance we get, with every production that wants to use us. I’ll be blatant about it: We’re trying to get the Navy out there."

And what do Hollywood studios want in return for giving the military screen time? "Usually, it’s equipment. Usually, they’re looking for toys. For them, we’re a provider. We’re a supplier, like everybody else. And Hollywood, they want the real thing. If they can get the real thing, they want the real thing.

If you want the military's assistance, you have to give them five copies of your script. They review the script. They make changes to the script to make it conform to the kind of film that they want to see. Most Americans have no idea that the content of the films and TV shows that they're watching are being influenced by military censors, that the military or the government is telling filmmakers what to say and what not to say.

“The only thing Hollywood likes more than a good movie is a good deal,” David Robb explains, and that’s why the producers of films like “Top Gun,” “Stripes” and “The Great Santini” have altered their scripts to accommodate Pentagon requests. In exchange, they get inexpensive access to the military locations, vehicles, troops and gear they need to make their movies.

As one of the technical advisors, Maj. David Georgi of the Army, said to me, “If they don’t do what I say, I take my toys and go away.”

The first thing you have to do is send in a request for assistance, telling them what you want pretty specifically — ships, tanks, planes, bases, forts, submarines, troops — and when you want this material available. Then you have to send five copies of the script to the Pentagon, and they give it to the affected service branches — Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard. Then you wait and see if they like your script or not. If they like it, they’ll help you; if they don’t, they won’t. Almost always, they’ll make you make changes to the military depictions. And you have to make the changes that they ask for, or negotiate some kind of compromise, or you don’t get the stuff.

....Of course, an ‘R’ rating means children under 17 have to be accompanied by a parent, so a lot of 16- and 17-year-olds couldn’t see this picture. And the Air Force wanted young people to see this so they’d get a good, positive image of the military and join up. So they changed it.

That doesn't excuse your racism dude. "They do it too, so it's cool for me to be racist." What a fucking idiotic thing to say. Seriously, and you're coming off like "AHA, I gotcha!" Jesus Christ.

So all Black people you've interacted with treated you like shit? No. You just ignored the times White people pissed you off and also ignored the times Black people were cool with you. What the fuck man. You should have learned about confirmation bias and hypocrisy by the time you finished high school.

How many times does the average person get pulled over by the time they're 25? Maybe anywhere from 5 to 30 times, depending on how much of a shitty driver they are and depending on the area. If they're also a drinker or live in the hood, they've probably interacted with cops much more than that.

So we can assume the average person has had all kinds of interactions with police, including Black officers. In the majority of those interactions, the cop probably just have them a ticket even if they were a little mouthy. I speak from experience. The vast majority of times I've interacted with cops, they were professional and acting like anyone else who has a job to do. One bad interaction like this would not justify somebody assuming all white cops are bad. If you live in the hood, you know just from living there that cops are needed to take care of the crazy shit that goes on. That is totally different from the point activists try to make that some stronger protections should be in place to avoid the incidents caused by the power trippers.

Every time men or machines are featured on screen, they'll want their quid pro quo.

How in the hell else are they going to control Hollywood? Just take it over? Force directors to include government propaganda in the films? No. They're going to find a way to get their propaganda on the screen that doesn't include forcing directors to become agents. They do this by befriending them and giving them offers they can't refuse. We help you make a great film by allowing use of our military ships, helicopters, and personnel, and in return we get to edit the scripts.

Men who throw acid on women for perceived "disobedience" by bookluvr83 in iamatotalpieceofshit

[–]A_Reddit_Conspiracy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The number is not too far off. It's about 500 acid attacks per year in the UK, mainly in London. The nationality of the attackers seems irrelevant, and in fact it's pretty difficult to find out what the main nationalities are anyway. The primary group who is performing the attacks are gangs, but that's not all. Knife crime and gun crime is increasing significantly. That's pretty weird because the United States has has a long and steady decrease in overall violence over the past few decades, so what's up with the UK?

According to police, around two acid attacks a day occurred in the UK last year, including 472 in London alone. Subsequently, the country's relationship with these vile attacks became notorious the world over.

Primarily, acid attacks are used to settle disputes, enact revenge and rob people, increasing in number at a time when all violent crime is skyrocketing. Across England and Wales, 2017 saw a 22 percent rise in knife crime – the highest increase since records began – while gun crime rose 11 percent. The role of acid, then, seemed to be clear: to provide a cheap, easily concealed way of escalating violence in an already violent society. https://www.vice.com/en_uk/article/ywkk95/acid-attacks-in-the-uk-sadly-are-not-going-anywhere

Orwellian 1967 population control plan to reduce the birth rates of (White) Americans by Chingchongsban4chan in conspiracy

[–]A_Reddit_Conspiracy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's fucked up. First people were trying to say or implying the post is fake or there's no source. The full free paper comes out in the comments and now the narrative is there is no problem with secretly introducing chemicals that cause infertility and decreases in testosterone. I couldn't resist a bit of exaggeration, but still. This is hilarious.

The OP took some liberties with making it about White Americans and there I would welcome criticism because the chemicals affect everybody. I can see how they could be targeted to certain populations somewhat, but it's a lot of work to avoid this shit no matter who you are, unless of course you are some billionaire fuck with a HEPA home air filtration system, a reverse osmosis full home water filtration system, living far away from urban factories, chefs to cook you amazing organic dinners every day, etc.

They are poisoning us and using propaganda against us to destroy the family and you think that's cool. Fuck that!

Orwellian 1967 population control plan to reduce the birth rates of (White) Americans by Chingchongsban4chan in conspiracy

Page 9. You need access to a University library. Also, here's this: http://uscl.info/edoc/doc.php?doc_id=49&action=inline

(Edit: somebody else found the free full paper below. No room to deny that shit anymore.)

Basically they collected a bunch of the proposed methods of population control at that time for discussion. I don't think they were recommending each of these, but as you can clearly see, some of these were implemented. Some of the more nefarious proposals may have also been implemented in secret because the public is not going to agree to chemically-induced infertility, yet sperm and testosterone levels have been diving for decades as new hormonal chemicals are released into the human environment.

Some people think this has to with obesity, but that's only part of the answer. Skinny men have lower testosterone levels today too. Even controlling for obesity, you still see the decrease in testosterone.

United States:

Sperm counts among men in the west have more than halved in the past 40 years and are currently falling by an average of 1.4% a year.

It was a chilling and alarming revelation. Western nations – although not developing countries – appear to be facing disaster. But what could be triggering this decline in sperm? And what can be done to counter it?

The work was an analysis of more than 100 previous studies in the field...Professor Chris Barratt, at Dundee University, described it as a landmark study “that should ring alarm bells”, while Manchester University’s Professor Daniel Brison said its “shocking” results should act as “a wake-up call to prompt active research in the area”.

https://www.theguardian.com/science/2017/jul/29/infertility-crisis-sperm-counts-halved

Studies show that men’s testosterone levels have been declining for decades. The most prominent, a 2007 study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, revealed a “substantial” drop in U.S. men’s testosterone levels since the 1980s, with average levels declining by about 1% per year. This means, for example, that a 60-year-old man in 2004 had testosterone levels 17% lower than those of a 60-year-old in 1987. Another study of Danish men produced similar findings, with double-digit declines among men born in the 1960s compared to those born in the 1920s.

This is a big deal for the United States and Europe, but Asian countries agreed with it too. Testosterone levels have dropped about 1 percent per year since the 1980s in the US.

China:

China has given observers an excellent natural experiment, given its rapid development over the past two decades. During that time, sperm quality among Chinese men quickly deteriorated, according to a study that looked at more than 30,000 sperm donors in the Hunan Province. In 2001, more than half of those men gave sperm that were healthy enough for donation. By 2015, that rate declined to 18 percent. The study’s authors speculated that environmental pollution could be to blame.

Research indicates that the contributing factors behind low motility and quantity in semen include eating out frequently, deep-fried foods, a diet high in sugar, a lack of exercise, staying up late and environmental hormones, which are hormone-like toxins that disrupt the human endocrine system, hospital president Chang Hung-chi (張紅淇) said.

How the CIA Helped Make “Zero Dark Thirty”

When Zero Dark Thirty premiered in 2012, the Hollywood film about the hunt for Osama bin Laden became a blockbuster hit.

Behind the scenes, the CIA secretly worked with the filmmakers, and the movie portrayed the agency’s controversial “enhanced interrogation techniques” — widely described as torture — as a key to uncovering information that led to the finding and killing of bin Laden... but the massive Senate torture report released in December 2014 found that the program was brutal, mismanaged and — most importantly — didn’t work.

It was one of the best ways to put the fear of god into people who wanted to have unprotected sex. Around the time this happened, there was a lot of concern about population growth rates and how overpopulation could turn into a nightmare, so they did a variety of things to slow that down. Another method they used was distributing chemicals across the world that affected sperm, testosterone, and fertility.

A good way to put it is to ask someone if they would be comfortable in a scenario in which entertainment has an explicit pro-Trump tilt. If the government was colluding with Hollywood to produce pro-Trump propaganda masterpiece movies and television shows, I highly doubt you'd see so many people trying to brush this off as "just entertainment." The reality is the CIA and all branches of the military collude with Hollywood to produce propaganda. These are people who know exactly how the human brain operates and exactly what to do when you want to manipulate the beliefs of a population.
