why does that sound familiar

Here's the thing about conspiracies that most "conspiracy theorists" don't get: 1. There is no group of absolute power. There are a bunch of overly powerful groups competing with each other. Yes, they are oppressing people in their own ways, but it's better than the past where an entire country or continent was ruled by one organization. 2. Almost every big conspiracy that happens is right out in the open for anyone to look at. The problem isn't that these people are really good at keeping secrets (they aren't), the problem is an issue of doubt and apathy of the population that feels it doesn't affect them personally and/or there's nothing they can do about it. There's a difference between the world going to hell in a hand basket, and the world simply not being anywhere near as good as it could be because of a bunch of greedy power hungry fucks. We're experiencing the latter right now. The difference is that a revolution isn't going to happen as long as people can still try to live happy lives, even if they know they're being oppressed. The only thing that will cause a revolution is wide scale brutality (which is the thing people react to, you'll notice fictional dystopias always have an element of this) or people's quality of life dropping at a high enough rate that people feel like they have less to lose by fighting back. That second one isn't happening quite yet, but it might in the near future.

the amount of complex and unnecessary wording and vague responses are a bit grating. globalization itself is not a conspiracy but it can be backed by a conspiracy. globalization isn't really a noun it's a verb.

how do you globalisation something excuse me

ah don't be a dick you know what im saying :p globalization is something that happens as a result of something. it's basically a more specific term for corporate expansion.

i honestly dont

so for example how do you globalize saudi arabia? put a 7/11 at every corner, 3 starbucks on every block downtown and at least two MCdonalds on high traffic roads. [editline]26th April 2013[/editline] eh i guess it isn't really a verb specifically. it's more of a noun that describes a process? but the dude above was right. globalization is the expansion into untapped markets. kind of like a kind of imperialistic capitalism, but the invasion is run by the corporations instead of the government. and you know once the fat cats get their claws into an untapped market they play dirty as fuck. [editline]26th April 2013[/editline] for example, africa exports water. not the lush parts either, i'm talking about the nations that are in the shit condition they're in because they're so water starved.

not really thats americanisation, not necessarily globalisation a better example of globalisation would be the EU which together form a stronger economic core that promotes economic peace and better conditions for the worker saudi arabia cant be globalised until their workers are emancipated and it stops being a command economy

we must go in [editline]26th April 2013[/editline] and go in

and go in like the US marshall and his three daughters

[QUOTE=NeoSeeker;40436777]the americanization leads to globalization.[/QUOTE] the americanisation and globalisation are two utterly different things. you can have all the american shit you want and still not have a globalised economy. ones a cultural sociological phenomenon, the other is an economic concept

a rock and a person are two completely different things but if you drop the rock on the person you have neither a rock nor a person anymore. you have a pile of what used to be the person and the rock, mixed together. what i'm trying to say is that cultural phenomenon can be used for globalization. people as a whole are easier to control if they're more like minded. really i dunno how else i can put this. plus i feel as though i'm sliding off my point anyways and am kinda losing interest. and honestly becoming kinda scatterbrained. it's fun to debate for an hour or maybe two but i gotta say there's more to life than BBS. plus i just bought dark souls

Globalization is literally something as simple as Japan and China starting to engage in foreign trade with Europe by selling each other spices, silver, silk and tobacco. Beforehand, China and Japan did not engage in trade with the Europeans. Now that they sell each other all these new things, their markets are opening up to each other and globalization is occurring. These countries are integrating and selling each other various goods and services. The opposite of globalization, is essentially reducing the size of markets and isolating yourself (like Japan did in the 17th through 19th centuries).

well yea. i also agree with globalization on principle(i support the idea of literal, actual free trade). the problem is that "americanization", as thisispain put it, is sold off as globalization when in actuality it limits the ability of people to trade and work freely.

So if Globalization is the expansion into untapped markets; and the prices of those markets are then controlled by the banksters, then globalisation is the expansion of the banksters sphere of direct influence.

[QUOTE=Zenreon117;40436972]So if Globalization is the expansion into untapped markets; and the prices of those markets are then controlled by the banksters, then globalisation is the expansion of the banksters sphere of direct influence.[/QUOTE] the banksters don't have that much control lol

It dosen't really matter to me if the conspiracy is real or not. But the fact of the matter is that we do have people in control of vast and unfathomable amounts of money. More than they could ever need. Enough money that puts them as individuals in an unusual position of power they should never be in. The fact that people who just based on their wealth are allowed great influence over other peoples lives scares me. They are neither qualified or supposed to have this sort of influence. I don't understand why we as humans can't just decide to think logicaly and rationaly all at once. Regardless of your ethnic heritage or your religous beliefs. Regardless of your sexual orientation or what you past looks like. It would be great if everyone could just agree for once. Agree to start over at a new blank page. To do away with the traditional sense of monetary gain. To forget about all forms of debts that are so unfathomaly large that they are just a big bloated interest scam that nobody will ever be able to pay back. If we started over from Page One and just agreed to live with what we had at the moment and go from there. If we could learn to take care of everyone and provide for everyone. Not for monetary gain but because you wanted to help them out of the goodness of your heart. We could strive for something greater than simple material gains, and build something as a species. But of course I am aware that I'm describing an imperfect and impossible utopia. But one can dream, sorry for the wall of text.

If it's a conspiracy, it's a conspiracy, regardless of the people who have theories similar to the actual conspiracy But I doubt that the news media is actively propagandizing the populace, or something. I think it's more that they're trying to avoid the backlash that would happen if they started talking about how corrupt the corporate world is, at times. Not to mention that news corporations are also fairly corrupt themselves, in that they'll willfully bend the truth and exclude key facts in order to generate controversy and get higher ratings. If CNN started legitimately interviewing people with reliable evidence to prove that conspiracies, like the one in this article, were going on, the corporations involved in the conspiracy would probably do everything in their power to shut up or fuck up CNN. Most people agree that Alex Jones is crazy. They'll appeal to a wider audience and make more money if they just point and laugh at him and his foaming-monkey personality.
