    So these youtube videos are the political philosophers that encompass your worldview.

    Yeadh.

    You're not too bright.

    You're back I see. Sorry but trying to convince people that the SS were not racist means you are not a little right of centre but have actually fallen off the dial and rolled away to a special place called bat shit insane, in that special place the extreme left and the extreme right join up.

    Here's your rubber medal for service to the KKK and Reich for the day. I'll leave you two to fantasise about UFOs and apartheid states together in the comforting knowledge that you are both too lacking in education to be able to name a single political philosopher between you.

    Oh and feel free to expand on your laughable definition of yourself as a historian. In particular your 'pride' in being a 'revisionist historian' which aspect of WW2 you are particularly keen to see removed from the history books. Would it happen to be something to do with concentration camps?

    Dumb and dumber.
     
  3. See, there's your problem Oldsoul. You do the same thing only much more frequently.
    You appear somewhat intelligent but you have no grasp of the concept of punctuation which, unfortunately for you, spoils your act.
    I guess there are automatic spelling checkers but you need to actually know something if you are going to use punctuation correctly.
    You are also seriously challenged in the credibility stakes.
    I have called you out several times about your baseless allegations and outright blunders and you still are not able to present actual facts to back up your pathetic attempts to denigrate my character, assess my mental health or challenge my knowledge of history.
    Posting a Youtube video certainly is not adequate and I again challenge you to put up some facts rather than all this piss and wind.
    Every time you have asked me questions I have answered fully and factually yet you avoid my questions without fail.
    I have asked specific questions of you and am still waiting for specific answers from you so enough with the bluffing Austin Powers McCarthy, I'm calling, let's see what you have got.
     
  4. I'm back? But surely you know that I didn't leave, it was you who slinked away, you are the one who left when it got too hot for you.
    You may be able to pass for intelligent if your arrogance did not keep exposing you for the bumbling fool you are.
    Now, another few questions for you my vaudevillian old mate.
    When did I mention concentration camps or WW2? Did I say the SS were not racist? Really? Perhaps you had better check that one too before you make a fool of yourself.
    Sorry Pal but it's far too late for that.
    You are quite inventive and way too loose with the truth which is why it's pointless trying to communicate with you.
    The ide fixe is impenetrable. Your deluded arrogance and subsequent dishonesty make any attempt at intelligent dialogue with you impossible.
    True scholars have some degree of humility, arrogance always equates ignorance and creates a barrier to any ability to understand and learn.

    Sorry there is a chap here in a UFO to take me off to visit Jesus. If I'm good I'm going time travelling again and after an ice-cream am off to see some dinosaurs on a photo safari after which I have to watch some RT and subscribe to a bunch of far right YouTube channels.

    You wouldn't happen to be interested in a going concern in a nice little earner in an Australian franchise in a UFO cult would you?

    No effort required. Just pretend to speak English (poorly) in a parody Germanic accent while wearing a large pair of horn rim glasses and repost some bland Russian propaganda about immigrants causing the EU to collapse, Bit about rape, you know the usual 'tee hee hee I'm a bit of a hate mongering Nazi' stuff, mixed races causing 'genetic degeneration', Nordic alien babes who are actually polaroid's of backing singers on random TV show. The usual cult stuff but with UFOs and Nazi eugenics and chanting and bits and pieces from Jacques Breyers cult in 1952.

    Helps if you have a survivalist loner fantasy that encompasses shooting trespassing children.

    Nothing 'insane' like.

    Good franchise. We are looking at branding, moonies is already taken so I was thinking of loonies.

    If we can get some cash together we can publish a book of prophecies or something and sell it to people who should really be receiving psychiatric treatment

    You interested, it's got racism and ufos in it!

    We could have pseudo religious codenames like Brother carlos the retarded and Sister eric manbiter and sit around making up names for the alien visitors.

    We have to leave time for the old racism though! After all we guard the secrets of the Nazi ufo blither blather and we can always make it sync up with our 'prophecies' later.

    Nothing insane or creepy obviously. Just Nazis and ufos (and Russian propaganda and hating immigrants and such).

    If we need to meditate we can hum while we watch some lad who can't get laid rant on youtube about sjw sh*te and feminism.

    Do you think some people may consider it insane? Just a bit maybe? Just the teeny tinyest wee bit insane?

    Just a smidgen of insane.

    Please honour the .dear leader' by making a youtube video and reading this out in a high pitched german accent while giving out about ze lefties.

    I spoke to zherg who stopped by in his UFO while I was massaging myself in the bath. He said billy meier is full of it and if you call me 'dear leader' you can be 'solrac the limp wristed' , reincarnation of both Himmler (keeper of the ufo recharger) AND king Arthur. It's a two and one special offer.


    Nothing insane in that is there?

    I have a blonde chick to says she saw it all happen so it must be true.

    If we meet any cranky old neo Nazis who want to pretend there were no concentration camps why we can give the old blowhard a woollen hat and make him a living hood ornament for our reliant robin just lets not drive him anywhere he will be arrested, like Austria, or Germany, or most of Europe!


    No insanity there at all. Obviously.

    Austin Powers the rt. hon. Dear Leader at your service
     
  6. Yep, more Vaudeville and nothing at all even remotely relevant.
    Why am I not surprised. :|

    BTW, I have no interest in the billy Meir subject at the moment but I may look into it one day if I have the time.
    Perhaps if I stop wasting time with deluded idiots from Aghartha flying through space and time on icy intergalactic Uboats and fantasizing about Nazis and reds under the bed I may just find time for something actually interesting.

    "Oi vey, oi vey, A Nazi a Nazi, oi vey a Commie."
    Friggin space cadets. :rolleyes:

    Don't bother me again old fool, you are a waste of space and time.
     
  7. Yeah, I love that one. I watched it a while back.
    As for oldfool, my suggestion is don't waste any more of your time with him. There is no reasoning with people who are so completely full of it.
    He is a consummate liar and if he can't avoid a direct question he will quote out of context, twist, turn and blow smoke in a desperate attempt to cover his dishonesty and ineptitude.

    There is certainly nothing of any value in this for me so I'm just going to beam up to the mother ship for a while, maybe swing by the Pleiades and take a relaxing hot meteor shower.
    Just kidding. Oldfool is definitely a bat shit crazy space cadet though. :lol:

    Just to mention the subject of this tread also.
    I am actually eligible to vote on the Brexit and intend to support the exit position.

    Yes oldsoul, I am European and have many imaginary family and friends in Europe.

    Here are direct quotes from you


    Like to elaborate on the regular jewish references. I'm not jewish but I don't see why you are ashamed to fully explain your revisionist history (which is a crime in some countries according to you) and misdirected anti-Semitic jibes. Are you a coward who is afraid to defend his beliefs or even state them?

    The bizarre SS ( Schutzstaffel ) reference really stands as it is. You are certainly no historian. Unless you wish to elaborate. Are you afraid to defend what you believe in and need to taunt non existent jews to bolster your failing ego. You sad wretch.

    CL what are your thoughts on the FTSE?

    My guess is that it's going to drop a little lower in fear before the vote then jump back up when it doesn't happen.

    ...even if the Brexit happens, the GBP/FTSE will drop, but with saved tax spending you have to assume the GBP and markets will be better off in the long run.

    This is generally my view, however if there is a broader negative reaction to a Brexit we could see a European banking crisis emerge which would affect British banks and the British economy for a lot longer than anticipated. Britain will be better off in the long run, but the bottom may take some time to be made before rebounding.

    At the risk of sounding like a conspiritard, I have a different take on the Brexit Play.

    First up I don't think Brexit is likely to be the financial catastrophe it is being made out to be. I reckon it's mostly fear mongering from the Remain campaign and the recent share market drop is as much about other systematic issues and things like Chinese Yuan hitting new lows (just like August 2015) more than anything else. I reckon Grexit was actually a bigger threat because of the potential/likelihood of follow-on major debt defaults from the Greeks socialist government if they left the EU....but I digress.

    I believe that the Fed and other central bankers have been trying to prop the markets up with jawboning and stimulus for some time now and trying to kick the can down the road. All they have to do is pause those efforts and volatility and fear will very quickly return. This same volatility and fear can be blamed on Brexit and may well spook the British voters into the Remain camp if they can be convinced that Brexit will bring on financial Armageddon.

    So my play is expect some heavy selling in the lead up to the vote and then buy ON the vote. Regardless of the likely outcome. I'd expect selling on a Leave vote outcome, but not so severe or sustained before the central banks resume their market support and a rally kicks back in.

    I was wrong.
    Looks like there are other ways to scare voters into the remain camp that don't require risking market sentiment.

    Old Soul asked a great question about philosophers who helped form the world view.. I think that is worth a separate thread, but for a start the Founding Fathers in their Federalist papers held that all men are created equal (hence nobody is naturally the ruler of anyone else, hence 'consent of the governed', Natural Law & human nature. That reflects my world view but did not help form it. I am really just a conservative by DNA it seems. I will give Old Soul's question more thought. I DID embrace Feminism at the tender age of 15. But that has wrought tremendous damage to my life in that it almost destroyed my relationship with both parents and I wound up not having my own children (very much regret. Unspeakable sadness).

    The Constitution and the Bill of Rights were philosophically inspired documents, based on undeniable truths if you like, that are arrived at logically. Nowadays governments have abandoned philosophy, it's viewed with scepticism unfortunately and doesn't distribute wealth, and replaced it with sophistry.

    Such a shame.

    Many many people hate the situations here they are sick of the EU (i am from Holland)

    And its fear the EU creates like without the EU u econemy collapses..Well we as west europe (UK Netherland Germany Scandinavia France Belgium) we keep putting money in for the east and south we cant keep bailing out Greece and soon Italy and and and...
    The low intrest rates we have here kill our pensions and make the avarage person poor but its the only reason the south can keep going on cause with there massive debts they would collapse.

    But if u know the history of fiat money its the bank who always wins with the loan + intrest system.


    I really really really hope the UK steps out but i am afraid the votes are rigged and the outcome is ready before the referendum has taken place it will be a win for the remain camp with just a fraction like 0,4% more..But it will be a hard battle (just like the anti EU party in Austria) they lost cause of 0,1% of the vote..............Who believes that over and over...I dont.


    But for now its fear fear fear the markets will collaps and then teh outcome will be 50,4% for the stay in the camp and then the markets will rise and shine and the nice music we hear for so long starts playing loud again..
    Thats it..
