The nominees for Best Crisis Actor, cast your vote in the comments. It's a tough decision with so many poor performances its hard to be convincing when your lying to thousands of people, but these cretins do it with such ease. Some even raised thousands for a fake cause.

You, chump, are probably an ugly, dishonest, worthless sack of shit. You may however be inexcusably stupid. It shouldn't matter. You shouldn't be allowed to take up space here with your vileness.
Hello, RI. Do you guys think you're smart? Go check out the thread about 4Channers trolling among feminists for patsies willing to piss in their own pants and post pictures? Then return here and behold, the RI version.
Will a line ever be drawn against it? Is it even possible to confine this filth? There are rules here against no-planes at the towers, for a reason. But that was an innovation in its way. Distinctive. "Crisis actors" develops the idea into a super-cheap mass product. Such an easy template to follow! Applicable to everything, like a spraycan full of stupid.
In matters like 9/11 or JFK, on most of the real open questions, "skeptics" (of the pseudo variety) can't get very far with mere argument. Why, they even help to make this place interesting. This tactic, however, this constant, corrosive reductio ad absurdum combined with a direct attack on random innocent people, seems to have become the fail-safe way to alienate, to prevent anything serious or interesting ever happening at RI again.

Psychological projection, also known as blame shifting, is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against unpleasant impulses by denying their existence in themselves, while attributing them to others.[1] For example, a person who is rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude.
According to some research, the projection of one's negative qualities onto others is a common process in everyday life.[2]
If I were moderator I would ask you to take some time off, Jack... but, I'm not a moderator so I will politely ask the moderator to respond to your vicious attack on Chump, because I personally like Chump much more than you.

Go ahead. Who the fuck cares? So now chump et al., who mock and defame the relatives of people who were murdered, are the victims of my being impolite. Be nice to the trolls and the troll "theory." All that counts is "courtesy."

I don't think politeness is important out of some faux regard for the other person, but rather so one can actually hear what is being said. Because when it comes down to it, I find how a person feels is something I frankly tend to care less and less about than the information and ideas they are talking about. Not ignoring it, including what it is as part of the picture.
So one thing I learned in being exposed to academic genius (a mathematical descendant of Turing) is this On person's "Clearly..." is another person's "Huh???"
What is absolutely is as clear as day to one person may be like fog to another.
So rather than variations of calling a person a cunt of many colours(which will generally have a negative reaction, increase all round hostility and bad atmosphere and see less chance of ANYONE changing any aspect of their point of view or express empathy with the other person?
I would say most people at RI are very bright, but there is often a deficit in empathy ie understanding the other person in their terms, not yours. Which is not agreeing with them - think back to those occasions when you have changed your mind - were they proceeded by empathy - 1-1 adult straight talk or by screaming and shouting calling them a useless piece of shit, telling them to fuck off if they were put out by that etc etc.
I think the process of engaging with people with whom we have perceptions that are very different AND which are in areas where there is intense emotion involved, is fucking tricky to start with, but FWIW I have never seen an approach that lacked empathy / rapport (ie didn't 'pace' the other persons experiences and values) or ignored helping the other person get their needs met (ie violated Marshall Rosenberg's NVC) ever change a another persons mind.

I don't expect or want to be heard by people who are capable of engaging in this trolling, especially at this stage. It's not something they want to discuss. It is unconscionable.
I think this one is my new favorite. The narrator just exudes deep expertise in all the areas of study necessary to expose these hoaxers: the psychology of response to loss, acting techniques for television, video forensics, criminal behavior analysis, even bringing his clear breadth in the the study of Christianity to bear on the video evidence... He puts together a rock solid foundation for his argument, plainly and simply assembling an architecture of irrefutable logical and forensic data points, building to a shatteringly climactic conclusion as the layers of the onion are peeled back to reveal the truth behind the government plot to fake the Charleston killings aftermath. If this doesn't convince you, nothing will.
Really opened my eyes.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Okay. Yeah.
So this is where JR's angry post came from. Seen.
You have no idea the cold fucking sweats I got to check The Lounge and see a red triangle. We've got beef in The Lounge? IN THE LOUNGE????
I'm going to unflag this, but JR seems to have checked out so nothing punitive. Especially since the "Crisis Actors" stuff is just dumb as shit. Fucking Youtube, man.
