Is Abovetopsecret a disinfo site?

I'm still struggling to see the whole disinfo thing.

As far as i can see, as long as you post within the T & C's, which basicaly break down to you being courteous, respectfull to others, polite, no trolling, and no repeated threads except the couple of rules where this is allowed etc etc....threads do not get deleted for nefarious reasons.

Its usualy the ones that break T & C's that shout disinfo first. Fair enough, lashing out is a common human response, but IMO thats usualy what this is...people lashing out.

I mean come on, take a look at some of the threads we have on our forums, if this really was a disinfo site do you think half of the content would still be here?

Half of the content here is bull crap so yes, it would make a great disinfo site.

100% of the content is user generated... so the blame lies with us and not some nefarious government plot if your statement is accurate.

Why would any government pay for or administrate a service that the population provides quite efficiently and free of charge?

It is still disinfo even though it is not done by the government.
They may not be disinfo agents but they do the job just as well and for free.

I'm talking about the better threads here. Theres a lot of info on this site that could be a major pain in the butt for certain people....yet here it remains.

Yes its true there is a movement of disinfo " Q-Agents" that obama created to attack sites like ATS

Its really esay to make if you like to outnumber a true movement you just need ONE GUY with 20 different accounts to argue with him self to create fake debate on your subject and support his disinfo agenda. And then he can claim and support his self for each of his accounts and give him self STARS & FLAGS

Most of that Disinfo Q-Agents is in the 9/11 conspiracy threads

Hmm unfortunately thats an incestuous arrangement that just leads to wilder and wilder things happening, you can only find the truth of things if you look at things from both sides of the coin.

If the ATS UFO forums where all of like mind every piece of footage or photo or story would be accepted as genuine proof from Billy Meir to the GFL... and that would be a complete and utter disaster, or every piece of possible evidence would be dismissed leading to the conclusion of why have any discussion on UFO's to begin with since none of its real and not worth any time debating which defeats the forums purpose.

You can only have a debate if you have a counter view to debate with, or debate with you... i think a large number on both sides have forgotten that you'll often loose the debate and see it as a 'must win at all costs' type scenario which is nothing self destructive.

As to ATS being a disinfo site... oh dear. Crying out that ATS is a disinfo sight because people try to work out the truth and often or not the evidence is shown to be false or at the least far to flimsy to be considered worth while in investigate is nothing but a deflection and a way of more or less saying 'ill take no other answer but my answer' or sticking your fingers in your ears and saying 'I know im right, im not listening alalalalal'...

Which does the field and this forum no good... let the evidence stand on its own merits, given the extremely rare nature of the phenomena and the proliferation of misidentification and faking only a minute amount of it will ever be classed as genuine and the UFO over-believers have to realize that fact since its based on rationale. Very little of it is true, just as it cant all be fake.

Awww.. The eevil skeptics have hurted someone again.

Another If you don't believe that GFL exists and are going to save us last October(s) then don't come to ths site! type of whiner.

If you can't take the fact that not everyone buys all the bull# that is posted here then maybe you should just stop visiting this eeeeeeeevvviiil disinfo site.
