Merged ReThink911 - a Richard Gage ad campaign

[ergo]

Intelligent people are rather easily misled by what appears to be well reasoned arguments by what appear to be qualified people making them who are assumed to have thoroughly investigated what they are speaking about.

This comment applies more to those who believe in plummeting highrises, except that you have no well-reasoned arguments to justify your beliefs.

That's why intelligent people side with the well-reasoned arguments.

The buildings didn't fall? Did they hide them somewhere during all the smoke and confusion?

WE DID IT!

ReThink911 reached its fundraising goal of $225,000 on August 6, 2013. Thanks to the very generous support of thousands of concerned citizens, ReThink911 will be seen in 11 major cities this September, coupled with grassroots actions all around the world.

The Next Step: Our Public Opinion Poll

To complement this unprecedented level of exposure, ReThink911 is commissioning a new public opinion poll to be released in the week leading up to September 11th. The deadline to reach our goal of $15,000 is this coming Sunday, August 11th.

After August 11th, ReThink911's focus will shift to educating the public and this website will be modified to serve that purpose.

They've raised nearly $5,000 of that so far.

I suspect their new poll will be just as "successful" as the last one (in 2011):

How well-reasoned is this?

If this is true, and I have no idea whether it is, the reality is that they would have worked on the art for many weeks now. I am also running out of home advertising in many of these cities this September. I have been working with our agency on mechanical art for 10 weeks now.

In other words, if the final art for these ads are already done and dusted, then these fundraising progress meters were always a complete charade. If the advertising actually runs the September, it means that they had committed to it months and months ago.

I wouldn't put it past the volunteers at AE911T to stuff the advertising up yet.

Do you have any well-reasoned twoofer arguments? I've never seen any. Do you know any intelligent twoofers?

"twoofer arguments" AND "intelligent twoofers" are both oxymorons.

The additional qualifier "well-reasoned" is redundant.

Rethink911 extended the date for the poll fundraising another day to August 12.

It looks like they then met their moveable goal.

Traditional Truther thinking: If you're losing, move the goalposts until you find an argument you can win. Then claim victory over the whole argument as if nothing changed.

 

[carlitos]

It looks like they moved to a lot of transit shelter advertising, as I suggested a few pages back. I wonder if they are reading this thread? Maybe I could consult for them.

AE911Truth had announced some time ago that the fundraising phase would be immediately followed by another phase of money making in which the "activists" would open their wallets a second time to buy ReThink911 merchandise for the "grassroots actions" in September. This was originally supposed to start after the initial donation deadline over one month ago.

Now, after almost one week of inactivity and only two weeks before the campaign is supposed to start, there are still no signs of this. Instead they decided to once again hold out their hand for donations, adding a new fundraiser to their site today. This time they want their followers to pay $15,000 for AE911Truth's "events in Times Square, Dundas Square and Congressional Outreach". No further details are given, but I guess we can soon expect a newsletter that will declare those self-advertising events historic, world changing, altering the public opinion on 9/11, etc. etc.

Could they mean that the "events in Times Square, Dundas Square and Congressional Outreach" are the "grassroots actions"? No sign of any merchandise rewards though.

$1,200 out of $15,000 so far for the newest campaign.

This is actually the initial amount the counter started with, which hasn't changed in three days.

The materials for the gra$$roots actions are finally on sale now. Gage had already announced rates that would be as low as possible in a recent interview, but as usual most of the actual prices are well above common production costs.

ReThink911 ‘Street Brochure’

This beautiful, four-panel, glossy brochure concisely lists some of the most important facts about the explosive destruction of all three World Trade Center skyscrapers. These brochures are priced at nearly the cost of production so everybody can hand them out to the maximum number of people.

$17,99 for a 100-pack

ReThink911 Vinyl Banners

These eye-catching banners will help you deliver the message that more than 2,000 architects and engineers are calling for a new investigation into to the destruction of all 3 WTC skyscrapers. Two sizes are available: The “Table Banner” — 72 in. by 30 in. (6 ft. wide), and the “Large Banner” — 111 in. x 46 in.

$134,99 apiece

ReThink911 Yard/Hand-Held Sign

This attention-grabbing 24-in.-wide by 18-in.-tall Corroplast yard sign is your primary street-level attention grabber for ReThink911 grassroots actions. It arrives with a convenient plastic holder that can be driven into the ground – or it can be used as a sign holder for rallies. It’s a simple way to put Rethink911 on full display.

$39,99 apiece. They also have baseball caps for $19,99, t-shirts for $18,95, coffee mugs for $9,99 and bumper stickers for $7,99. They either have a really awful deal or they must really trust in the gullibility of their customers to expect them to believe those are sold at, quote Gage, "next to cost", especially when ordered by AE911Truth in bulk.

However, you can download the artwork for free from their Dropbox:

stickers, signs, banners and posters

web graphics

attachment letter with "Summary of the 9/11 World Trade Center Evidence" for AIA architects

documents for congressional visits

Quote from the letter to members of congress:

The ... 2009 peer-reviewed paper “Active Thermitic Material” in the Bentham Open Chemical Physics Journal remains un-refuted.

Because if it wasn't at least peer-rewied by hand-picked reviewers for an obscure pay-per-publish vanity journal you can safely ignore any criticism. As everyone knows, that's how science works.

But I particularly like this one:

The government’s account of the unprecedented destruction of all three skyscrapers constitutes a mountain of distracting detail.

Wouldn't that be exactly what the CT side has been doing for years - obsessing with various details and supposed inconsistencies to distract from the fact that their alternative scenarios don't make sense on any level?

Ottawa, Canada is now the 12th official city for the ReThink911 Campaign
The ReThink911 ads will appear on OC Transpo through the month of September, reaching tens of thousands of people in Ottawa.

...

Sincerely,
Pamela Senzee
ReThink911 Campaign Coordinator

For some reason they did not post this on any of their own websites or Twitter accounts but only on this obscure Canadian truther blog. Pamela Senzee is the third person that has been titled "campaign coordinator" so far after Mike Figa and Laura Katleman who were known as co-coordinators before.

Typically haphazard management from AE911Truth.

So long as Richard Gage gets his name on the internet, the cohesiveness is not important.

According to this commenter on the AE911Truth Facebook site, the London ads are also up now. Let's see if people there care more than in San Francisco. So far it doesn't look like.

Writing the obscure brand name in small print somewhere in the lower corner of a taxi ad doesn't appear like the smartest thing an amateur advertiser could do. They can estimate average impressions as much as they want - most people who see it will not even figure out what this is all about.
