A book called JFK, Aliens, and Elvis.

I always hated the pledge at school and just school in general.

The internet though. I've been online since I was a kid. I remember surfing the web on 9/11 as an 11 y.o. kid and being like, "yeh, what's up with that magic passport everybody?".

What changed me from one who simply enjoys learning and discorving new things and solving problems and mysteries to a "conspiracy theorist" was finding one horribly photoshopped NASA image of (they say) Mars, and could find no logical exlaination for it other than they are hiding something.

I was always researching more fringe topics. Then 9/11 happened. I've gotten a lot more heavy in recent years in my research but generally I've always been a truth seeker.

Takes a lot of time to stiff through all of the propaganda. You either follow blindly or seek the truth. Thats it

It started sometime around early grade school for me. I had an issue with the one size fits all authoritative figures that called themselves teachers. Everyone just did what they were told without question while I resented and ultimately resisted it. I couldn't articulate my feelings of this until about age 17/18 but I always knew we were not getting the whole picture. Then 9/11 happened and the red flags went up and I started becoming more self conscious to my surroundings. Now that I've reached the event horizon there is not much else to do except watch the world tear itself apart by its own hand. I'll spread happiness wherever I walk but deep down I'll know the truth. And the truth is we'll not know what we have until it is all but ashes. My soul will roam the universe one day tho, so that's a plus. I wanna see the crab nebula.
