Just a few general points I wanted to make-
I don’t like the term ‘conspiraloon’. It seems to be used by some as a blanket rebuff to anyone with a point of view differing from the norm, or the official story. Or indeed to anyone who would even question the official story. Or just anyone who disagrees with the opinions of certain users.
And so to owls (hurrah!) It seems that on these forums, the people who bring up owls the most, albeit with the intent of humour, are the people who use the ‘conspiraloon’ tag most often also. Occasionally I find the owl jokes funny, but I think it is being overdone to a degree that stifles debate. And clearly, it is not the members here who are discussing such events as Bohemian Grove who have an owl obsession. It is the people who attend the event who do. and perhaps also the posters here who continually bring it up as a running joke. “Worship ye now at the shrine of yet another owl joke… sacrificed before the great owl god of sarcastic quips...”
As far as I am aware, the owl jokes are referring to some members’ interest in an annual ceremony at Bohemian Grove, where world leaders make a mock human sacrifice to an effigy of a giant owl. This is well-documented, in both print and film, even by anti-conspiracy journalists like Jon Ronson. So if we accept that this happens, who are the so-called ‘loons’- the people who have a cosmology of sacrificing to owl deities, or the few people here at U75 who have noticed that it seems a bit odd and occasionally remark on it. I mean, I don’t see how saying that I find that ceremony at the very least extremely weird, makes me a (and I quote) ‘loon’. Conspiracy orientated or otherwise… and I think that kind of labelling plays into the hands of those who wish to forward the reptilian agenda- haha, just kidding…
… The rest of my points, apart from that last sentence, are serious, just to be clear.
