"And so we come to the Boston false-flag theorizing, which is even stupider because all that happened..."

Tue, 16 Apr 2013 13:47:05 -0400

“

And so we come to the Boston false-flag theorizing, which is even stupider because all that happened was that an asshole built a bomb and set it off to hurt people, which assholes have done before and will do again. But the falseflaggers are out to explain that, no, this was military-grade ordnance that was used (based on no evidence whatsoever) and that this happened because the Gubmint wants to put more restrictive laws in place to interfere with your civil rights. Of course, the government has been doing that for decades and they haven’t felt the need to bomb anybody because they know perfectly well that they can just restrict civil rights by passing laws and nobody will say boo to a goose, most of the times, because “it’s not my problem” trumps civil rights concerns for ninety percent of the population (just ask any black person about how nobody seems to care when their civil rights are trampled), but whatever, bombs away, am I right?

But falseflaggers don’t care because their theories aren’t about logic or reason or anything at all. Their theories are about making tragedies that happen to other people about them. It’s a fundamentally narcissistic response to tragedy – to not only ask “how does this affect me” but to twist the facts of the event to create a narrative so that you are more likely to be affected. It’s an asshole move, plain and simple, and falseflaggers deserve to be treated like assholes, because they’re assholes.

I’m mildly curious, since it came up in my Gamification course. Some of you may be gamers or have at least played games. What were your formative electronic gaming experiences? I will say mine were stuff like Zork, Dungeons of Daggorath, Adventure!, Civ, Railroad tycoon, and Rock and Roll Racing.These days I love exploring and experimentation content. (Minecraft is crack-like in this, The Diablo Series is a well rounded game for that as well, when taken as a whole.)
