I'm still learning how to post here. I hope this does not violate procedure .
I like most of you have found it infuriating the many tangents a discussion can take with the conspiracy theorist. It is so irritating that I have found a new tactic. I will give you a current example.
The belief among CT'ers that the CIA is behind Isis.
You can argue till you are blue in the face and they will throw up the picture of John McCain meeting with the free Syrian army . Then claim that proves the US funds ISIS. No amount of reason or factual information will dissuade then or their groupies.
After the attacks in Paris I no longer dispute that point with them even though I disagree .
I have taken the tactic of turning the tables on them. I now accuse them of pointing fingers to advance their agenda at the sake of innocent lifes. I tell them that I don't care who is behind the organization. That this evil must be met without blame .
It sets them back because they are no longer able to debate who is at fault. It puts them in a position to debate right or wrong which they shy from .
Mick I have read the posting guidelines I understand I might not have met them with this post . If you feel this need to deleted feel free to.
If not I have a suggestion for the site even though I know I'm new . I think it would be beneficial for us to have a form to discuss tactics on . The key to any debate or propaganda war is tactics and we should stay up on them .
P.S
I also apologize for my dyslexia as present in the my grammar . I will grant you I am not a critical thinker. I tend to think more laterally but I do not find fault in it .
