Conspiracy theorists... are they all just a bit thick?

I think it was the "Freakonomics" guys who worked out that the drop in violent crime was most likely due to the introduction of legalised abortions about 18 years before the crime figures started dropping in the US...
That was the other one I couldn't remember earlier. Or rather, it was the argument that the pill and women's rights was a driver etc. coldel said:
Yes there is a load of fake memes out there showing 'crisis actors' which people believe, a lot of it perpetuated by the likes of Alex Jones.
Just shows what sheep some CT are unfortunately.
Yes, I know about the crisis actor thing. Just shows what sheep some CT are unfortunately.
It just demonstrates how huge the ‘brain-washed by the internet’ problem is.
The glassy-eyed ones are popping up wherever you look these days.

I first heard about 'crisis actors' after the Boston marathon bombings.Just shows what sheep some CT are unfortunately.
All the people hurt were actors apparently.

It's just a self selected under class opting out of reality and society due to a lack of strength, intelligence or education to face participating. It's just a subsect of the cults of 'It's all someone else's fault' and 'I deserve more free money' It just demonstrates how huge the ‘brain-washed by the internet’ problem is.

So how come some of these crisis actors aren’t lured away to appear in a tv ad or two, or a walk on part on some dodgy soap opera?
Surely they would be good enough actors to take a few quid from elsewhere. Some CTist somewhere would spot them, and make a big fuss about it, but no, I’ve never seen anyone ‘outed’ in this way.
Maybe the crisis actors are all looked after by ‘Them’ on a secret island somewhere.

How can they be lured away? They're rushing around from one atrocity to another.So how come some of these crisis actors aren’t lured away to appear in a tv ad or two, or a walk on part on some dodgy soap opera?

But there is a bit of a spectrum about many of these things. The crisis actor claim for Sandy Hook or whatever is ridiculous. But I recall long ago, maybe during CAST LEAD in 2008-9 timeframe, where the timestamps on images from various AP/UPI/Press photographers showed that some dude had been wandering around with the dead body of a small boy for like 6 hours, pretending to find it in the rubble and acting all aggrieved for different photographers several times. The crisis actor thing is not made up out of whole cloth, it is extrapolated from real world occurences to the ridiculous.
If the Soviets, or the Chinese, or the Palestinians, or whoever have done that, then surely THEY would do it, too.

Except that was an actual dead body no?
s like Jones claim Sandy Hook didn’t ever happen. Different thing entirely.
Whilst I fully see that all as utterly despicable and that I have zero time for Alex Jones, his recorded prediction of what, who and how for the 9/11 attacks was fascinating!!s like Jones claim Sandy Hook didn’t ever happen. Different thing entirely. jshell said:

From around 1:40 - names bin Laden and then references the WTC circa July 2001. Does a better job than Nostradamus, I guess.
