Sorry, my attempt at sarcasm. I know it's a serious problem, but that wasn't Alex Jones' take on it. Why Alex Jones? Because the person I was responding to sounded like him.

  Sarcasm? Try some humility: reproach your own abject ignorance for a moment (once you stop disrespecting the important work of Dr. Tyrone Hayes by ignorantly conflating it with "conspiracy theory"): "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." I passed legislation in college [1] -- With a group of 8 students, we activated thousands of students across our state, reaching local, state, national media. And through our work, convinced dozens of legislators to pass our legislation. --> A small group of people can make a major impact. --> You don't seem aware of this fact. Maybe you're not particularly strategic in your work, and... --> therefore you're not aware that small, strategic groups of people can impact significantly larger groups of people? _____________ Specifically on the topic of "Conspiracy Theory" which you've apparently been conditioned to fear the thought of-- Have you read about Operation Mockingbird? Or do you just take anything the media tells you-- hook, line, and sinker?
