Exactly. All the supposed online 'evidence' is highly suspect. How do we even know Breivik wrote the manifesto--in apparently expert English, not his native tongue? And what does gunning down a bunch of innocents--most of them of his own race and culture--have to do with fighting immigration and multiculturalism? Nothing!!! It is amazing to me how many people buy into the nonsense that is put in front of them.

Uhm, we learn English in school from we're like 7-8 years old. Much of his manifesto though, is copy & paste work from other extremists and sources.

You don't have to "buy" my opinion, haha. The point of debate is to exchange ideas, yes?

But, to the point.
I do not see anything except your opinion on the matter, a weak one at that. If the point was to make everyone just idle along without any real meanings in fear of being seen as a threat then this discussion is utter proof they have failed isn't it?
I mean, look at me and DrakeBloodAxe, we are both Norwegians, he is from the far right and I am from the far left, but still we voice our opinions on this and any matter we feel like. He seems to be very sceptic about Muslims, and I on the other hand am not.
The one thing ABB did not succeed in was silencing us in any way.
So there's my proof, now you show me yours.

Or ... it could actually *be* a conspiracy ...edit on 1-8-2011 by SevenStarrz because: (no reason given)

Or it might be time to use logic and reason instead of grasping at straws.

As far as I know no-one is scared of the right wing extremists, kind of surprised I think is a better word, like with Timothy McWeigh except in that case I'd give it a 99% better chance of actually being some sort of conspiracy (no, not mind control).
Only right wing extremists that are powerful enough to be scary is in Israel and in congress in the U.S, and they are mainly scary for Muslims.
I don't believe in individual mind control it seems implausible when it is so easy to control peoples minds through mass media it also seems very inefficient. That's why I never watch television and always use ad-block(except for when I'm on ATS of course)

I don't think the point is to "silence", but to monitor, because now people fear both muslims, and far right extremists.
The way I see it is, you can't have *any* opinion, except one that is middle-of-the-road, without coming under suspicion, now:

You are contradicting yourself in a very clear manner, this is not bickering, it's just you making wild and inaccurate claims and me trying to have a discussion you clearly are not willing to participate in. At least not in any serious fashion. (Very annoying).
You can go back and re-read some of my posts and see if you have any answers to my questions of your knowledge of right wing extremist groups and your view of them being able to form someones mind in a way that made ABB in to what he is today, or you can educate me on mind control, a topic I am interested in and have read a whole lot about, from MK-ULTRA via Jonestown up to Scientology.
But, please don't tell me I have only opinions, they are opinions backed up by facts, unlike yours.
