Wait, wait, wait...what kind of idiot doesn’t believe in conspiracy theories today? I mean, we just watched a cabal of about 15 high ranking government officials secretly conspire and harness more or less the entire intelligence and legal apparatus of the federal government to try and stage a coup upon a duly elected president. Had Hillary Clinton won or Trump had been a little less popular so that he had been impeached, anyone saying as much would be derided as a “kook and conspiracy theorist”. I could name you half a dozen actual conspiracies that have taken place in the last decade or so that everyone on this board acknowledges as true and believes.
So, while you may not believe in any one particular conspiracy or you may disagree with someone, only an idiot pretends to be superior to those who do at this point.
Maybe so, but when EVERYTHING is a resultant of a conspiracy by the SAME group of people with a religion as the common denominator, the "kook" modifier applies...

You are SO FULL of horseshit its not even funny. Just for starters, the Lusitania was doing 25 kts plus at the time she was torpedoed. the torpedo hit a nearly empty coal bunker and coal dust being almost like black powder, enhanced the detonation and made a bigger hole. That and the HIGH SPEED she was traveling, caused the rapid intake of water. .
For that particular voyage Lusitania had only 19 of her 25 boilers operational [ boiler room 4 was down]. Thus reducing Lusitania's potential speed to 21 knots and when the vessel entered the Irish channel captain Turner reduced her speed down to as low as 15 knots due to fog.
this was done in contravention to orders to proceed at full speed in the submarine war zone.
Logs from U-20 also do not show Lusitania doing 25 knots.

"ANYBODY THAT'S NOT FOR IT IS A KOOK!
"Crank"or “KOOK” is a pejorative term used for a person who holds an unshakable belief that most of his or her contemporaries consider to be false. A crank belief is so wildly at variance with those commonly held that it is considered ludicrous. Wikipedia

“In Trump We Trust.” Right????
SOMEBODY please tell TRH that Netanyahu NEVER said "Once we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away."

I know you lack formal education, but you should really look into taking some sort of reading comprehension course(s).

The President did the right thing. I'm sure we will respond in kind..

No one believes you, Jorge. You're a Boltonite, through and through.
When you have nothing, the tactic is to throw out as much excrement against the bulkhead in the hopes some of it will stick. Keep trying...

I quite agree on the first 2, but I'm not convinced on the 3rd member of that triumvirate. Yet.
The problem is a high degree of gullibility, coupled with inadequate education, which leads to deep-seated anxiety and feelings of inadequacy that are out of proportion with the person's strong ego. These persons attempt to reconcile the cognitive disconnect between their erroneous belief that they are exceptional and their low level of success/achievement in real life. They then embrace conspiracy theories and other kookiness as a means of demonstrating their "superiority" in the face of all evidence of their ordinariness.
I just watched a video this morning by some other kook that purported to "prove" the moon is an artificial satellite placed by aliens to watch "us". It was very slick, and sounded real convincing. There was a lot of good factual information in it, but about 1/4 of the assertions they made were outright lies. For instance, they said that mica and titanium are present in large quantities on the moon, but are not "elements" that are found in nature; well, first thing, mica is a silicate mineral, not an element, and second thing, both mica and titanium are present in abundance naturally both on the earth and the moon. In another hilarious segment, they claimed the moon was only 25% as massive as it should be, by using a flawed geometric formula for volume of a sphere that anyone who knows 8th grade math would recognize s wrong. But hey, geometry and algebra have no relevance in "real life", so we don't need to teach that stuff, any more. Many other flat-out falsehoods were included in the video, which any person with even a smattering of college-level education in physics, astronomy, and geology would recognize. But huge numbers of gullible, undereducated, and overconfident conspiracy kooks will watch this video and be convinced by the slick sales pitch.
The rubes who sucker in on the talk radio and internet conspiracy pundits (I dunno, is Alex Jones one? I don't keep track...) are quick to deny anything that doesn't support their warped view of the world and politics as deliberate deception perpetrated by deepstate/Illuminati/joos/boogeyman-of-the-week, and dismiss official sources of information as a matter of course. Because that proves their "superiority" in the face of their obvious ordinariness.
Kind of pathetic.
What makes it so pathetic is that those so afflicted choose to allow their obsessions to block genuine learning.
They then go forth with missionary zeal to convert the unenlightened lesser beings assuming that others are as simple and gullible as themselves.
It would be tiresome if they were not so much fun to poke. Who would know that there were so many sick/goofy buttnuggets vlogging from their singlewides were it not for our "awoke" members who have their fingers on the pulse of America.
