Is the 9/11 Truth Movement a waste of time? My exchange with marcg:
January 19, 2008“It’s not about opposing the cause, it is the political sophistication, or lack thereof, of those most stridently advocating for the cause. The 9-11TM doesn’t get how the world actually works. They think the same way that most folks think when that moment in life comes. Something big happens that turns their worldview right side up. At that point, they come out of the cold of not being political or supporting the struggles of others and think that everyone should get behind this thing that rocked their world. Idealistic as it might be, the world just doesn’t work that way.
Here is the crux though. When most folks, do this, they usually quickly see that the world doesn’t work this way, at which point they either go back to watching television or they join in the popular struggles that they had previously been ignoring or ignorant of or just not turned on by.”
