The potential of the Internet as a source of information? The use of information for evil.

submitted by HibikiBlackCaudillo from self.conspiracy

I see a lot of potential in the Internet itself but at the same time can't help but feel down about the way it has been exploited for evil. The way the Intelligence groups and the PR firms manipulate information for their own ends is a good example of it...

I still think it can be used for better purposes and building a resistance. But it won't be easy for obvious reasons. Political activists have to take the lead because time is running low.

The time has long gone unfortunately.

There was never a time the common folk weren't oppressed and manipulated, dating back to early hierarchical civilization.

So why be upset by something you can't control?

The use of information is just like any tool going back to the printing press so you can't ascribe morality to a tool.

All you have to do is move forward and not question the changing of the times as much as making sure the right people are there to steer the boat that's for the most part going off a waterfall.

Yes Hibiki we know. Antisemitism is bad. You can play down the Holocaust TM but I'll always remember you crying about how everyone was antisemitic, which makes me trust nobody on here.

When did I say something about anti-Semitism? There's non racist Jews that question the Holocaust so I don't know what you are on about...

I've always been the same. It's just that I don't trust people to handle the truth. I just started being more liberal about it because I thought about new methods to share my views without me being such a control freak.

I hope you have a good day.

Many months ago. You mentioned how bad antisemitism was. And used that canard misnomer to your own benefit which makes me question everything you say, because you never change the information in your posts I debunk. You keep spewing disinfo about Jesuits, as if Marrano crypto-Jews are Jesuits.

You've said it yourself. Many months ago. It has nothing to do with this post...

It does though. The internet is a tool and you're falling in line with policing the internet because it could be used for evil, as if that wasn't evident already. That line of thinking is straght from the ADL.
