Lets not belittle illness here. SImon Shack is a deluded person, but I have every reason to suspect he has psychological issues rather than is some sort of 'disinfo agent'.
What evidence has anyone used to differentiate between the two options? Mental illness is far more parsimonious than subterfuge.
Besides, whoever took Simon Shack seriously after viewing his forum? All space flight a hoax? Public figures don't exist? Victims are faked? It's clearly delusional.
He is actually bang on the money with most of what he says.

The coverup is simply brilliant, they always a step ahead.

It can't be both. They can't be so brilliant as to have conducted three explosive demolitions in full public view, but so incompetent that they are easily visible to laymen. It can't be so brilliant as to have every conceivable narrative covered and kill witnesses, but so incompetent to leave key people alive and vocally spreading their theory.
It seems a lot of people want things both ways, 'TPTB' are both extremely stupid and simple but also incredibly complex and advanced.
It can't be both, and it's not the latter.

I also invite everybody to check the background and belief of the member who posted here this piece of disinformation. I always do it in the 9/11 topic. It help to understand "why" he says this or that.
They cannot start killing people who research 9/11, it would only bring attention to the topic. Instead they created a controlled opposition with many different wrong theories. And this is the best way to hide the truth.
TPTB are incredibly complex and advanced. That why they are TPTB. Do not underestimate them. They are smarter then you and me and everybody else. They can buy anyone or destroy anyone life, including literally.

Bush or any other president is not the real power. The fact that Bush is not very smart highlight it, He could be even an idiot, does not matter, he does not take important decisions.
The idea that the western politics have less power that banks and corporations is basic and crucial to understand most of conspiracies, incl. 9/11

I live on a planet where Internet exist, and everyone I know surfs on it and gets information from it. Often from non-MSM websites. Often its complete nonsense though, just like the MSM.
If you think there is some sinister force behind the media carefully controlling it, using it to control and brainwash the population, then I think you are paranoid. Sure, powerful people manipulate the media to their benefit. But that is not the same as control.
What I think is going on here is that you are trying to give yourself a feeling of self importance, being part of the few who figured it out, unlike all the sheep who watch TV. The reality though is a lot more complex than you like to think. There is no single evil driving force, there are many powerful people, often with conflicting interests. I think the games that are played among the people in power themselves are a lot nastier than what those poor "brainwashed civilians" have to deal with.

Internet has much smaller audience. They cannot shut up everybody of course, so hey just add a lot of nonsense and half-truth to make it complicated to get information. Like in 9/11 cover-up.
"feeling of self importance" is a popular therm among debunkers.
I figured out that there is no way to change the world and stop them. It only makes me unhappy.
And there is no practical use of this knowledge.
I believe that the Strauss Kahn case is an example of some conflicts. But I do not care about their internal "conflicting interests". They are together against us, the common people.
