DadJoke007: That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

The burden of proof is always on the one making claims. If you're making outlandish claims, be prepared with proof to back it up or be prepared for ridicule.

Ideas aren't equal until proven otherwise, Russell's teapot and so on.
Read some advertising journals if you'd like to know how easy it is to manipulate human beings. There's a reason that psychologists make shittons of money in advertising -- it works.

You mean like this?

I don't oppose the manipulation of humans, there are tons of evidence for it. I oppose making claims without evidence, especially something as big as satellites being used for controlling thoughts.

I really wish they'd use cables for their mind control. It's annoying when it's cloudy or stormy outside and I'm suddenly left with full agency over my thoughts.

Mind control might be bad, but shoddy workmanship is arguably even worse.

What if the claim has proof but it would be illegal/unsafe to expose it or the source of it(like gov't/corp secrets) is hard to obtain proof from?

Should we dismiss such claims just because evidence is hard to get or unsafe to disseminate?

Your skepticism is just part of the mind control. Like the perfect Matrix, it doesn't work! :-P

The exact expression is "Extraodianary Claims Require Extrorodinaty Proof".

Right, but if you substitute telly for "satellite waves", it's all rather moot. How much control do they need? lol

1. True, but what if the proof is impossible to find/produce? Then the one making the claim is stuck in a near unwinnable situations(with regards to proving his or her claim).

2. Sometimes it's fun to just believe something......as long as it does't harm anyone else, that is.

I fail to see the issue in this question.
Is this like Local58?

The issue is the one making the claim is stuck between a rock and a hard place.....the onus is on them prove said claim but they sometimes can't. So what do they do? Keep trying to make people believe or give up?

What's that?

I don't care about what they do or what position they find themselves in.

Fair enough, but the question still stands and is a valid one to ask, imo.

Search Local58 on YouTube, and prepare for a short but creepy experience. Then watch some analysis vids for good information you probably missed. Then go outside and look at the moon.
