Anybody else find that trying to go to Fakeologist.com throws a "Database error"?

It's up again now. How funny though: we just had an OSLO / UTOYA radio show on Fakeologist today - and I remember Cluesforum crashing for a few hours just after that event (back in July 2011)....

I found this article interesting: The $alvation Army - A behind-the-scenes expose on the world's "finest" nonprofit

I don't know how well known the SA is outside of the USA but is is very well known here. Per this article's author who says he was an insider, it seems like quite an insidious operation and probably like many other "charity" organizations.

To all USA members let me be the first to wish you a happy Independence [cough...] Day.

Thanks for sharing. The author should be a CFer, if he's not already

That is an interesting read of gathered information, definitely.

But, unfortunately, it's also Markus Allen Goldstein doing the gathering. He is — according to Simon, Ab and a researcher named SimonJCP (not related to Simon) — a plant, stalker, word-mincer and creep. A most recent adventure involved Mr. Goldstein threatening Ab with releasing Ab's personal information to make Ab stop talking about him. This Markus ('truthsleuth', but who might more accurately have the name 'gangster') joked about the threat and grimly called it a "promise". If I understand it correctly, this was just data Ab had had publicly available in general like pictures and writings and was nothing really alarming if it were "released", but it's never a good thing when someone threatens you or cyber-bullies you, no matter how innocuous the threat. We don't tolerate that kind of personal info gossip shit on here unless you count when we are relatively sure the gossip in question is displaying flagrant evidence that the subject is a perp, sim or augmented reality actor — in which case we still would not use threats, veiled threats or jokes of threats of blackmail like some kind of playground bully. We'll just post and examine info and challenge it if it's claimed to be evidence of anything. Particularly if the sim posts here and thrusts their bizarre simulacrum directly into the stream of public focus and attention on the question of what evidence is, as did 'ozzybinoswald', 'Brian S Staveley' or countless vicsim-knowers that can't put up anything convincing even when asked.

What Mr. Goldstein does is be deliberately disruptive. Please check out this thread on the subject of this umpteenth "clown" (as Simon calls him) trying to barge in the research with personality cults (*ahem*, Alex Jones, Jim Fetzer, Ace Baker, et cetera, et cetera, ad nauseum):

Here's a little joke-threat (not really a threat or a promise or anything and I'll probably forget this tomorrow) of my own. If you folks on here start blindly worshiping CluesForum the way people follow the above mentioned Princes of Distraction, I'll ... I'll ... politely ask you to take a break from the Internet, possibly.

Thanks for the warning. I haven't heard about this guy before but his post on Salvation Army was good, he points to media fakery and seems to be honest. Anyways I spent only limited amount of time on his website.

I saw some stuff on sports fakery and I have to admit it overlapped with my recently awaken interest in this particular subject. I usually don't give a shit about professional/commercialized sports events but I for some reason pay attention and watch Mundials and we have a Mundial in Brasil going on right now.

To what degree is this whole thing rigged because we can be certain it is so ? Skills must be important in the scheme but how "results" are actually set ?

Thanks, hoi, I didn't know about Goldstein.

My guess would be 100%.

It seems like it would be fairly easy to do by controlling the officials and a few key players.

I try to look at it rationally, but it´s still ungraspable.

Fake charities that use emotional blackmail are truly sickening IMO. The SA are only a minor fringe in this operation as there are far bigger players in the game and lets name one: Cancer Research Charities. According to this pro research site, http://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-u ... l-as-heath the British alone have donated 15 billion pounds to cancer research in the last 40 years. If we take that across the world then we should be approaching perhaps close to half a trillion pounds plus. Obviously the topic of Cancer fraud, causation and Big Pharma corruption is already out there for those who wish to pursue it. Both my parents died from cancer despite this money so at least they can't charge me with knowing nothing about it when when i laugh and condemn their sheep like behavior into how they been brainwashed into putting money into this scam by emotional control.

Heck, when even a so-called "promising" new drug comes on the market, that "may prolong" their life by a few months they will have to sell their House to buy it or find it's not offered on the NHS. So much for all their contributions over the last 40 years.

After almost 60 years this media hoax seems to have come to its end in the past weeks.

Time magazine, CNN, CBS are all retracting it....

I found a website that proposes an explanation why this is happening: http://healthimpactnews.com/2014/time-m ... ated-fats/

Reversing years of negative press on saturated fats, Time Magazine has finally admitted defeat on this issue, reversing course and admitting that the war on fat was wrong. They even expose the junk science that supports this dietary philosophy.

So why this sudden change of heart on saturated fats?

We reported earlier this year on how commodity food manufactures have admitted defeat in the war pitting margarine against butter: butter won. Butter consumption is at an all-time high now, as consumers wised up before mainstream media told them it was OK to start eating it again.

So with major commodity food manufacturers beginning to put REAL butter back into some of their processed foods, it would seem they have given the OK to the mainstream media to report what has been known to consumers for many years now, and validated by REAL science: saturated fats are not the enemy.

It would be interesting to follow how this spreads into the other media. Too bad I can't stand watching mainstream media.

[Pilgrim]

Perhaps it was just becoming too obvious to too many people and even the more honest in the medical profession know that trans fats were the culprit not saturated fats. Dr. Uffe Ravnskov was a pioneer in exposing the Cholesterol myths: http://www.fathead-movie.com/index.php/ ... d-for-you/

Statins are the new Gold Mine worth billions as they target the healthy with a medical hoax so i can't see them letting go of this Cholesterol hoax as easily. In fact, Statins are so wonderful now they will even find you a girlfriend Notice in the UK everyone is offered a free Health MOT with reminders in the post over the age of 40, just so they can put on Statins?

The salt myths are closely related to the Cholesterol hoax, "a 2012 study in the American Journal of Hypertension found that people on low-salt diets developed higher plasma levels of renin, cholesterol, and triglycerides" and an increased risk of Heart Disease Mortality. http://chriskresser.com/shaking-up-the- ... estriction

"Get the Butter!"

As endorsed by Marlon Brando in "Last Tango in Paris"

Mono-, di- and triglycerides can be adding to the surplus of trans fats in our diet.

Everything in moderation, of course, but trans fats especially moderated.

Love the spreading butter news.
