Why did the 9-11 Truth Movement fail?

[T.A.M.]

I agree with others, Parky, that the TM and the blow back would have been the same regardless of the party in the white house.

I mean look, now you have Obama in the WH (well almost) and the paranoiacs are already trying to link him to the NWO.

The difference now, of course, is Obama has not made an 8 year joke of the presidency.

What is more exciting? George Bush Snr being a fairly average man in control of the worlds most powerful nation or an intergalactic space lizard?

Neither of the alternatives you use to illustrate your psychological "insights" accords even remotely with reality.

The 911'sTrue Movement's analytical abilities have always been a bit surreal and otherworldly!

I take that as a compliment. Maybe I have powers too...

Please offer us a third alternative, this should be amusing. The Ickeans say that he's a lizard (well done for spotting that this doesn't accord with reality, we may make something of you yet); whereas we "surreal and otherworldly" debunkers maintain that he's more your bog-standard Homo sapiens, though the surrealism inherent in this claim is not immediately apparent. And you?

The 911'sTrue Movement's analytical abilities have always been a bit surreal and otherworldly!

And yet curiously enough it is the Truth Movement that has failed. So if we admit your stupid and self-serving hypothesis, we then have the further puzzle of why Truthers failed despite their opposition laboring under the burden of "surreal and otherworldly" analytic abilities.

The topic is, after all, why the Truth Movement failed. Deficiencies, real or imagined, in their opponents can hardly explain this.

Some posts removed. Please post on topic, don't bicker, and stay civil to each other.

As to calls to close a thread, you know by now that we don't do that without good reason. If you don't think a thread should be discussed, don't keep bumping it by posting!

Irony is, this would probably have been merged into the General discussion thread, if it hadn't so many replies so quickly.

"Why did the 9-11 Truth Movement Fail"?

It was a child of the Internet.

No, it was children on the internet.

They failed ultimately because they were laughably wrong to begin with - their 'evidence' was a joke. Perhaps a more organized and united front might have helped them but then again if they had ever agreed upon a theory this would have made debunking a lot easier.

 

[Brainster]

Since it is now clear to most everyone here, that the semi-organized "Truth Movement" has failed miserably, I think we can now discuss why they failed.

Because they had no evidence.

Had 9-11 taken place on President Al Gore's watch, I doubt 9-11 truth would have been as popular as it was.

Much as I would like to believe this, the popularity of the Clinton Death List and similar nuttery (the North American Union, Obama's Birth Certificate fanaticism) makes me doubtful.

I think part of the reason for the failure was the impossibility of defining success. What would have constituted a success for the truth movement? A new investigation into 9/11, which would have found the same as the original investigations and therefore been rejected as a failure? Hardly a success. Answers to all the questions they raised about the details of 9/11? They've had those a thousand times over, from here and many other places. The execution of thousands of US government officials for crimes they didn't commit? The release and false exoneration of Khalid Sheikh Mohamed, something they could still compaign for but have shown no interest in?

It's said that in a just cause, there are no failures. It could equally well be said that in a false cause there are no successes.

...the rest of the thread is just bait for a "The Twoof Movement ain't not neither dead, nuh-uh!" fest.

If only they were that sophisticated in their speech.

More people than ever are questioning the OS.
Does it mean that the TM will topple the government? Hardly, but what it has done is awakened millions to the BS that has been fed to us for decades.
Fail? Lmao. This thread fails.

Yet, strangely, those millions didn't bother to turn out and vote, did they?

"Decades"? Strangely enough, 9/11/2001 is only seven years ago.

Methinks you're misplacing a decimal point.

There are people who are too stupid to understand 9/11, you must be talking about them. You have already exposed you have no knowledge on 9/11 and many topics which you use as proof of your ideas. Yet your ideas are based on lies, fantasy and false information. Proof? You have no evidence to prove me wrong.

You have failed due to lack of knowledge. You have proven this.

 

[Trojan]

No doubt divisions within the movement have also hurt - think traditional truthers vs. the no plane - September clues

 

[skepticalcriticalguy]

why? is this not a worth while topic for discussion?

Not really. Just sounds like more bored gloating. Why not work on debunking CTs that haven't been addressed much. Like the "Buckethead is really Paul Gilbert" conspiracy.

 

[T.A.M.]

Well I am not sure it is entirely bored gloating. I think for those of us who have watched the TM rise and now fall, a study in why and how is worthy.

I am quite willing to entertain that notion if you are willing and able to back up the claim.

From my perspective I see fewer and fewer persons showing up at rallies in support of "questioning the OS" of 9/11/01

I see fewer persons joining web forums that are "questioning the OS" of 9/11/01. "


I see less and less coverage of the "questioning the OS" of 9/11/01 in the media


So I do not understand how you come up with that claim. Please illuminate me because in my view "questioning the OS" of 9/11/01 has stagnated at best.

Hurry then! Rally those millions and demand to the government that KSM is set free! He's being framed!

Tweeter, do that and you would be a hero!

Well, then, where the XXXX are they??

Why don't they make their voices heard..and their faces seen?

Hmm? Shy are we?

I call BS. Major...major...BS.
