I made this thread a while back about how my favorite alternative news sources had been ideologically compromised and seemingly "taken over"...
http://www.sectual.com/thread-6198.html
Not only has that persisted, these sites have never returned to their former glory and they likely never will...
But now even the last vestiges of "REAL" current events/news are just TOTAL FUCKING BULLSHIT.
It's all a bunch of hysterical assumption based fear mongering TRASH.
I'm APPALLED by the state of things... APPALLED.
Holy SHIT.
I used to LOVE keeping up with current events and world news etc. in all genres, science, politics, whatever....
But I can't find A SINGLE FUCKING SOURCE that isn't BOTHERING me.
Like NOT A SINGLE ONE that isn't just a bunch of hysterical BS tripe.
Jesus...
The line between DRAMA and ENTERTAINMENT and news is apparently fucking GONE...
And there is NO UNTAINTED SOURCE anymore.
Wow. Just wow...
Thats the main reason i found this website of yours , its much better than mainstream bullshit. Plus you are kind of interesting and charming. I also like watching other milfs talkin bout aliens ...anything but 'the news' .
It sucks, you guys, IT SUCKS.
WHAT HAPPENED???
Has it changed, or have I CHANGED???
Has it REALLY been infiltrated, or is it just that NOW I SEE that it's total bullshit???
Because I low key miss enjoying the current events/alternative news scene...
But every time I try to look at known sources, and TRUSTED sources (only a FEW left), it's just...
More and more hysterical fucking nonsense every time.
Is it me or is it them???
I feel like it's a bit of both...
It has to be.
I think there's basically nothing going on...
And these sources who thrive on drama and crazy shit are BORED and have NO MATERIAL to work with.
So now they're just dramatizing and going into hysterics over the SMALLEST shit, making these HUGE stretches over the VERY LITTLE there is to work with...
Until it's so warped into such a shitfest of fanatical banal nonsense that it's just IMPOSSIBLE to take it seriously.
I Think maybe you changed at least thats what happened to me cos they keep posting the same stuff you realize this eventually

I think you're right...
And it took like a good solid 12 years for me to realize it was all a load of BS.
Nothing's been the same since.
It's like ever since the "conspiracy theories" of yesteryear have been outed as TRUTH...
Ever since the "conspiracy theory culture" got brought into mainstream and capitalized on...
The alternative/conspiracy side of media has been infiltrated with a massive load of BULLSHIT.
Distract with one hand while the other hand is shifting shit around and FUCKING EVERYTHING UP.
They infiltrated the legit alternative news sources, capitalized on "conspiracy theory culture" in pop media, and while everyone was distracted and overwhelmed by the pumped up popularity...
They were basically planting mines in the original alternative news sources and then left them holding the bag, full of all these hysterical moron noobs who poured into the alternative news scene once the guards were down.
And now it's all full of a bunch of hysterical nonsense, totally off the wall, wildly fabricated crap due to the need for the alternative media to latch onto ANYTHING they possibly could because the TABLES GOT TURNED...
"Conspiracy" got outed as TRUTH, and suddenly the shoe was on the other foot.
I've actually posted about this before...
The Left are the new Conspiracy Theorists

I think about 4 years ago I realized its just the same thing over and over again.
Much of it is true sure but nothing ever changes.
