First off, what I gathered from Ritchie's speech was that he feels the truther community has become as rigid and dismissive in its mindset as the established media. He also makes the point that some people are so desperate to find truth they will look to places where they will be told what they want to hear - for a price. Ritchie goes on to say its not journalism and its really an echo chamber. So Ritchie is talking about other presenters who have a platform such as himself that manipulate their audience for profit.
So what does that have to do with the Nov.3 FF?
The main presenter here was the unknown German Youtube poster "Cooking with Willi", who put out a few video's (at no cost) that contained some worthwhile examples of predictive programming regarding the destruction of Seattle and the date 11/3 or 3/11. Many felt that some of his examples were a stretch and some might say"cherry-picking" for the sake of his case. Despite that many truthers, myself included, felt it was worthy of following through to uncover more or even debunk his claims.
Are you saying "Cooking with Willi" and others are manufactured plants meant to discredit the truth community?
I personally believe that something was planned and was thwarted, but we will never know.
So what do you suggest? That truthers not look into future potential FF events, even if they deem them worthy? Are we just suppose to ignore them as not to make the truth community look foolish when they don't happen?
I believe that there are many who have been awakened because of this non-event. The 9-11 PP examples shown in willi's videos served as a learning lesson to many who were unaware of this fact. I don't believe we are just preaching to the choir.
I do feel the term truther community is a little ambiguous Frank. Things have changed over the last couple of years. There is no community as such, believe me I've looked, just lots of different content creators using social media and forums such as this one of which there are many. I think what Richie is trying to point out is that some of these content creators setting out to deceive. I agree with this.
What's becoming more prolific nowadays are the amount of videos that appear out of nowhere from creators who seem to appear out of nowhere that are predicting a false flag or catastrophic event on a particular date and at a specific location. Looking at the last three examples being Nov 3rd, The Brooklyn bridge destruction and the last Superbowl final. There was literally hundreds of videos made all predicting carnage, all showing different codes and references pointing to a location and a date, we should have been destroyed by Nibiru three times already.
I feel the net effect of these video's, after the date comes and goes without incident, is that people who were starting to wake up to how these events are actually programmed into our minds first become doubtful, they begin to think that they may be suffering from some tyoe of paranoia and they stop looking at it. If these video's did in fact make more people woke then they would not be anywhere near a suggested video list on YouTube. The people who are doing the real damage are being censored off YouTube, they are never promoted.
I would love to have the optimistic view that these video's are alerting the public to the elites hidden plans and as a result these events are being thwarted but you also have to take into account that the people planning these events are psycopaths, a few people knowing what they are going to do doesn't matter, lots of people knowing does matter though.
The video Cooking with Willi made plagiarized a lot of material relating to the predictive programming of 9/11 from other researchers. You will be able to find most.of his material featured here in this video, I feel he was using this material to make his claims over a Nov 3rd attack more credible.
If you look back at the comments Lisa made on this thread after Nov 3rd didn't happen it gives a good insight into the impact these video's have. Taking into account that this is supposedly a conspiracy based forum there appears to be a core group of regular "posters" here who deny there is any conspiracy at all. You'll notice them wanting to talk politics and religion all day.
That's my take on it anyway.
