911 and a frenzy of conspiracy to commemorate the big 10

So, the 10th anniversary of the 911 attacks has been commemorated. As far as 911Troof is concerned that means a frenzy of reiterating the same old crap they've been churning out every day, month and year since it happened. Nice. Respect, huh?

I've been going through WhatReallyHappened's list of bullshit, and responding in my usual sceptical way and my comments have been deleted at an unprecedented rate.

It's quite funny to post scepticism at all these places only to have it deleted (and rubbished as the work of Mossad, of course. When do my cheques arrive for all this work, Mossad? Everyone says I'm due a payment.....and I could do with it thanks very much.)

Usually I'd document the instances of censorship, but really, what's the point? I'm tired of doing it, especially as it achieves nothing. This isn't an argument about evidence, though that's what Troofers like to claim it is. Material evidence doesn't impact upon faith - and that's what 911 Troof is really about - faith. The censorship undertaken by Troof is a material fact, aside from the facts of the matter regarding 911 itself, and that's why I have always tried to document it. But I'm tired of the whole thing. I'm still nevertheless fascinated by it. It's a socio-political phenomena, which transcends 911 conspiracy eg Hofstader's "Paranoid Style". I find it fascinating, especially as it informs my view of the rise of Nazism which previously I could never comprehend. Nazism was conspiracism, and its appeals are echoed throughout conspiracism, including 911 Troof. So, as stupid as it is, it is important, only not for the reasons Troofers and all the other kooks imagine.

I suspect this will probably be the last year that 911 Troof has any real significance as a popular meme. It's going to increasingly become part of the mythology of conspiracism, rather than an active political force by itself. Good riddance. Maybe we can move on to some real issues now?

The problem is, when Troof moves onto other issues (if it does) then it's going to be anti-semitism - the mother-lode of conspiracism. But at least with 911 forever increasingly passing into history, fascism's opportunity to exploit it will also be receding at the same pace.
