tin foil hat wearing anti-vaxxer.

This is called an ad-hominem attack. You are no better than the people you are insinuating that you are better than.

You are attacking a person's search engine based on something that has nothing to do with their search engine. Why? Also, while they may be an "anti-vaxxer", I can't seem to find any evidence that this person wears tin foil hats. Source?

I honestly don't care what people do in their personal lives, vaccinate, don't vaccinate, wear hats made of foil, don't wear hats made of foil. How do people have so much energy to spend on hating each other based on the media's divide and conquer strategies? Either add something useful to the conversation (relevant to the discussion, which headwear and vaccination status most certainly aren't) or go post on your blog about how you hate everything not like yourself.

Wrong, it's not a conspiracy if it's false. A conspiracy is two or more parties working together for an illegal, unethical, or otherwise undesirable means. A conspiracy is NOT the incoherent ramblings of a wild-eyed mental patient. That's what we call a crackpot theory.

However, the powerful elites and controlled media outlets have worked tirelessly for decades to further the narrative that anyone who accuses someone else of a conspiracy is a wild-eyed mental patient. When, based on the simple definition of the word conspiracy, everyone can admit that they surely happen every single day in every country on Earth.

Hence, the "conspiracy theory" becoming a label that can be easily applied to anyone who is calling out a group of two or more people who are up to no good and immediately discredit them. For the sociopaths that run the world, this is the best thing that could have ever happened to them. Anyone who can see that 5+5=10 is now a nutter! How convenient for them!

Oh, everyone's noticed. That doesn't make it OK, there, Champ. If everyone walking down the street for the past few days has been kicking you in the nuts, does that make it perfectly fine if it just continues to happen?

would you be able to distinguish it from a real gun from 100 feet away?

No, and does it even fucking matter? Guns aren't illegal.

This guy's a moron, and maybe it's OK that they ran him in just to make sure he wasn't up to no good, but fuck pressing charges. And the principal? A pussy who has no business being in charge of anyone, let alone our children. And we wonder why kids are growing up so soft...look at these "role models" they see in schools! Nanny-state limp-wrists who soil themselves at the sight of a plastic gun.

I don't recall anyone, ever, claiming that Martha Stewart wasn't a story. People were pissed about her case then, just like people are pissed about Hastert's case now. Yes, what Hastert allegedly did is egregious and vile, much more so than a stock tip. But why try and inject the "liberal women" card where it didn't need to exist. Why does every single fucking story have to turn into a goddamned story of oppression? Can you fucking people NEVER give it a goddamned rest?

Hastert is a piece of shit, and so are you.

They don't know exactly who I am at all. That would take an IMEI number and a database that they don't have.

Completely untrue. When you sign in to Facebook on your device, they have access to your phone number (if you haven't already voluntarily given it to them) and device ID (not IMEI, but a unique identifier). They also get to have access to your contact list. All of your friends have also given them their contact lists. It isn't hard to correlate all those lists and numbers, combined with messaging histories and usage patterns, to know exactly who *everyone* is, even if you DON'T have a Facebook account.

That's the part that bothers me the most, is that even if I've never used their services, they still have a profile on me.

I think you're absolutely correct. Why the fuck should I give up the only cookie I have (or anyone else has) left to some lazy, union slob (or the CEO or anyone else for that matter) without a fight? I wouldn't expect the union worker to give me his cookie. But yeah, fuck the middle class or something right?
