Type nearly any coherent question into google and it has already been asked.

The human brain is claimed to be a masterpiece but it is weak. Dai Splott thinks he is has been given a gift most of the population has not, conscious thought.

He claims to be intelligent but I suppose it is how you rank intelligence. If he could give me the parameters of this ranking that would be grand.

Someone could create software that sieves the web for anti Britain, anti US articles and that would effectively be Splotts brain. Give me a thread title of his about the middle east or the three amigos, russia iran syria and I guarantee I'd be able to give his opinion. Such conscious thought

Fact is we are ants that could die tomorrow. Most simply do not care enough to "rebel".

The BBC, one of the most heavily scrutinised media sources is biased trash. Yet links so website that openly explain their bias are ok

He can claim to care about injustices till the cows come home but the bias makes them meaningless to me.

Conscious thought is being able to weigh both sides equally. At least the ignorant population don't claim to have a voice of any kind let alone a neutral one.

Spot on. I did just that the other day when watching the news about the Smiler roller coaster accident. I wondered if any loons had claimed it was false, and low and behold there was a huge page dedicated to it and about how the girls hadn't really had their legs amputated.

The replies to the article were from another load of "critical thinkers" but should be renamed comedy thinkers.

As you've mentioned Splottys opinion could be told straight away before he's even announced it, that's hardly research and evidence, that's a stubborn old fool banging the same drum constantly.

Much the same as Gluey can always be relied on to predict gloom and doom at any given opportunity.

Just constantly reading anti-west nonsense doesn't really give you a balanced opinion.

I believe Gluey gets his economic information from the Financial Times, so I'm not sure what point you are trying to make

He must be doing it wrong then because you're supposed to get two opposing views to form an opinion.

I do believe economic data is factual information

You didn't even know who he was a few weeks ago so no wonder you are easily mistaken. He doesn't get factual info mate, he links to lunatics on Russian propaganda websites. We all used to laugh at him as you used to fall for it hook line and sinker. Luckily we were always here to set him straight.

I miss him, he's probably off around the world saving orphans or something but I'm sure he'll be back soon.

The data produced by the OBS and other government agencies is factual (and official) but the criteria is iffy for how they arrive at the figures. A good example is the unemployment number which is at 1.7 million of the working age population. It doesn't include those unemployed who are in ill-health or have kids under five, etc.

I've read up on him since you are always talking about him

Give me reasons why I should uncritically swallow the West's propaganda about events or situations? Jo Cox's passionate support for the White Helmets who are involved in fabricating videos and assisting Jihadi groups with executions in Syria? The four years of lies about Turkey's, Israel, Britain's and America's involvement in trying to bring about regime change in Syria, so that they can have a fragmented state 'ruled' by a puppet government like Iraq or Libya.

The point is you uncritically support the anti west propaganda. Now I'm sure the Yanks, Brits and Israelis are up to some shady things throughout the world, but for you they are the ones up to everything. Despite it being impossible it just shows you are a biased person. Not critically minded or anything, you've got a dog in the fight and will continue to support it. That's fine, but let's not dress yourself up ass some sort of critically minded investigator.

Your MO is, if the website attacks the West, you'll believe it. You don't care whether the info is correct or not, if you are pulled up on it you refuse to answer the questions. How many times on here have people had to ask you to just answer the question they've asked?

Always fun watching him dig himself into a hole.

Nonsense, I respond to all questions. If the person is abusive then naturally I just ignore them. What you seem to have difficulty in getting your head around is that the West is not some beacon of freedom, democracy and justice with universal values that can be admired by others. Other countries see the hypocrisy, notice the hidden agendas, watch the imperial approaches to regime change in countries that it doesn't like, or countries that won't play the part of being a client state.

You ignore people who ask questions all the time. You might reply to them, but you certainly don't answer the questions asked.

Where's your evidence young man, or is this just another one of your general smears and unfounded allegations?
