Don Jeffries Wrote:Geez, okay. "CT" is routinely used by many good researchers on internet forums. I know all too well that "conspiracy theorist" is a label used to ridicule anyone looking into the truth about important political and historical events, but I am surprised that it causes this kind of consternation within the research community itself. I just meant it as an abbreviated term, in contrast to "LNers."
I'm sorry to have disappointed people with my naivete. I will strive to do better.
Mine were not meant as a criticism pointed at you, Don. It was just a statement on the subject to everyone. I know that others too have adopted the enemy's terminology and/or some don't care what terms are used. I think it important to self-define and deny being defined [in words and, more importantly in concept] as to what we think and what we are trying to accomplish. I only mentioned it because it had been brought up. I think it is a very subtle psyop and should be resisted as much as possible. This is my own 'take'.
