Nutters

Recommended Posts

The internet, and certainly Forums are just like a great big pub and I remember when there used to be locals way before internet there were always several nutters and even relatively normal looking regulars believed a whole load of wild speculative shite that they continually peddalled as FACT


I remember a on the face of it normal mate at University telling me that we were all about to get conscripted for the Falklands as it was Thatcher's plan to reduce youth unemployment and bring back discipline and he knew cos he had an Uncle who was 'something' in the Foreighn Office.


This sort of nonsesne is just peddalled around so quickly now and people just take it as gospel too often

The differnce is that the nutters who, in the past, wouldn't talk shinola in the pub for fear of public ridicule or, in extreme circumstances, a slap can now make their innermost thoughts public, before they even realise what they are, and do so in anonymity. To a much wider audience.

Some of them are nutters but behind them are usually people with harder heads manipulating anyone they can for financial gain. You don't get to become a member of the Christian elite solely for your pure heart and good deeds, it seems.
