It is the disinfo artist and those who may pull their strings (those who stand to suffer should the crime be solved) MUST seek to prevent rational and complete examination of any chain of evidence which would hang them. Since fact and truth seldom fall on their own, they must be overcome with lies and deceit.
You wouldn't know fact OR truth if either of them bit you on the ass. But it's amusing to see you invoke their definitions here. Thanks for providing the term 'Disinfo Artist', though. Now I know what to call you, since (as you'll see below), you definitely fulfill the criteria you borrow from 911review.org (a really STELLAR website, btw! I'm sure they've won all sorts of awards!).
For such disinformationalists, the overall aim is to avoid discussing links in the chain of evidence which cannot be broken by truth, but at all times, to use clever deceptions or lies to make select links seem weaker than they are, create the illusion of a break, or better still, cause any who are considering the chain to be distracted in any number of ways, including the method of questioning the credentials of the presenter.
It would seem that you've mastered the very technique above.
Please understand that fact is fact, regardless of the source. Likewise, truth is truth, regardless of the source.
There you go citing fact and truth again! And to think I thought you were strangers.
Moreover, particularly with respects to public forums such as newspaper letters to the editor, and Internet chat and news groups, the disinfo type has a very important role. In these forums, the principle topics of discussion are generally attempts by individuals to cause other persons to become interested in their own particular position, idea, or solution -- very much in development at the time.
You're just as guilty (if not moreso) than anyone else here, Cloggy.
...the disinfo artist has yet another role -- the role of nipping it in the bud. They also seek to stage the concept, the presenter, and any supporters as less than credible should any possible future confrontation in more public forums result due to their early successes. You can often spot the disinfo types at work here by the unique application of "higher standards" of discussion than necessarily warranted. They will demand that those presenting arguments or concepts back everything up with the same level of expertise as a professor, researcher, or investigative writer. Anything less renders any discussion meaningless and unworthy in their opinion, and anyone who disagrees is obviously stupid -- and they generally put it in exactly those terms.
This reads like your résumé.
So, as you read any such discussions, particularly so in Internet news groups (NG), decide for yourself when a rational argument is being applied and when disinformation, psyops (psychological warfare operations) or trickery is the tool. Accuse those guilty of the later freely.
OK, fine. I accuse you of the following, using your own (borrowed, but obviously accepted by you as law) criteria:
Disinformation Rule 1 (modified): Hear no truth, see no truth, speak no truth
Disinformation Rule 2: Become incredulous and indignant
Disinformation Rule 3 (modified): Create rumor mongers (or become one!)
Disinformation Rule 4: Use a straw man (can you say: nose-dive?)
Disinformation Rule 5: Sidetrack opponents with name calling, ridicule
Disinformation Rule 6: Hit and Run (you've certainly ignored any answers that don't coincide with your own opinion.)
Disinformation Rule 7: Question motives
Disinformation Rule 8: Invoke authority (even if all your 'facts' are borrowed from your fellow consipiracy theorists)
Disinformation Rule 9: Play Dumb (No matter what evidence or logical argument is offered, you avoid discussing issues except with denials they have any credibility, make any sense, provide any proof, contain or make a point, have logic, or support a conclusion.)
Disinformation Rule 10: Associate opponent charges with old news (quote from you: 'It was buried until you Rockdrummer opened it.')
Disinformation Rule 11: Establish and rely upon fall-back positions (basically ALL you've done here)
Disinformation Rule 12: Enigmas have no solution
Disinformation Rule 13: Alice in Wonderland Logic (I'm not sure if you swallowed the blue pill, or the red pill, but you're obviously on SOMETHING!)
Disinformation Rule 14: Demand complete solutions
Disinformation Rule 15: Fit the facts to alternate conclusions
Disinformation Rule 16 (modified): Discredit/dismiss evidence and witnesses
Disinformation Rule 17: Change the subject
Disinformation Rule 18: Emotionalize, Antagonize, and Goad
Disinformation Rule 19: Ignore facts, demand impossible proofs (WHERE are the tapes? WHERE, WHERE, WHERE?!?!?!?!)
Disinformation Rule 20: False evidence
Disinformation Rule 21 (modified): Call a Grand Jury, Special Prosecutor, Launch a nonsensical internet-based campaign to uncover lies... er... truth... er... which is it, again?
Disinformation Rule 22: Manufacture a new truth (oooh, BIG time offense for you)
Disinformation Rule 23: Create bigger distractions
Disinformation Rule 24: Silence critics (well, you try!) :grin:
The ONE rule you don't violate is...
Disinformation Rule25: Vanish
IF ONLY you would.
You might consider holding a mirror up in front of your own arguments before making that kind of post. As we've just seen, those criteria can be twisted to apply to ANYONE who disagrees with your opinion (or mine, or anyone else's).
Reba's right. Even if evidence did surface to prove you wrong, you would deny it's veracity. I don't think there's ANYTHING that will ever convince you that you've been walking down the wrong path for so long.
Rockdrummer's right, too. It IS a waste of time arguing with you. But hey... if anything, it's amusing and entertaining to see what else you'll come up with, so by all means... continue sharing your delusions with us.
Until next time!
