OF THE
TIMES
I am a US expat since May 2001 with permanent residency in Chile which grants me virtually the same rights as a citizen including the right to vote.
For transparency, I am "on_strike_usaexpat" on the other forum. Not quite trusted there despite never causing any major problems especially as compared to others they have accepted with open arms no questions asked but who then screwed them or disappointed them to their surprise. It is what it is and I accept it.
Two months after 9 1 1, I doubted the official story. At the time, I was an avid follower of the news aggregate site of James Orlin Grabbe. The story as related to me by a friend at the Pentagon that day is archived on the site referenced in the second sentence.
The revelations of 9 1 1 and then the BS brainwashing and buildup to the Iraq war changed my worldview such that I voluntarily and fervently changed my life direction to one of legally denying the US Empire the fruits of my mind, labor and physical presence. I gave up an US-based career, connections and lifestyle to align to what I believed was right.
20 years later, well my stance didn't mean jack and I wonder about the money I could have made but then dread what would have been me if I had stayed. Last I heard, all my university buds except for one are divorced and all are probably still grappling with what happened in 2008 (I myself almost got wiped out when TPTB spiked the silver futures market down).
All history now, it is what it is, I deal with it with the ethos of an older Gen X'er.

Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well... You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect...
In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.
