Conspiracies and conspiracy theories are a weird beast. There have been enough true conspiracies out there that we should be inherently skeptical. And it comes from a natural place. Recent studies have suggested that the major reason human brains are so complex has been in order to outsmart other humans. It is in our nature to make sure others do not outsmart us, and we are perpetually locked in this struggle. On the other hand, seeing conspiracies around every corner is paranoia and equally unhelpful. There are a large number of conspiracy theories that have no evidence whatsoever; not that this prevents people from believing. Conspiracies can be everything from fixing the price of oil, to overthrowing governments, to your neighbors trying to make you move by having their dogs relieve themselves on your lawn. The importance is often not the size of the conspiracy, but the impact it has upon each of us. In general, conspiracies are the organizing of a group of people, or beings if you believe in the lizard people who secretly run the planet, that have organized and are undertaking a plan unknown of by others. Within this book you’ll find: • Ideas for including conspiracy theories in your game. • Discussions of little green men, alien visitations, Tunguska, and what the military is doing behind closed doors. • Examples of how to include alien or other advanced technology in your game. • Character options for creating conspiracy-oriented characters. • And much more! Sample file Introduction to Conspiracies There are two large ideas that fall underneath the larger topic of conspiracies: real and theories. These two concepts have always been uneasy bedfellows. Sometimes ideas firmly existing within one camp will, through sudden revela- tions, shift wholeheartedly into the other. Within modern society, especially, it is impossible for any individual to know everything, and the relatively primitive human brain is left to cope. This book attempts to address both of these – there are a number of conspira- cies that were real and have been included and are discussed. On the other hand, there are a large number of conspiracy theories as well. From a role-playing standpoint, many groups may prefer the more outlandish conspiracy theories to the relatively mundane ones. If you are to look at conspiracies in general, there is an important consideration to remember. Humans are, in general, terrible at keeping secrets. An individual may be perfectly adept at lying, but as groups grow, the chance of a single individual being willing to rat everyone else out for personal gain or even just for security approaches a surety. This is an important rule to remember – the mem- bers of your secret society need motivation to not spill the beans. For the larger conspiracies and secrets out there, this is usually accomplished my limiting the information that everyone outside of the inner circle knows. When that isn’t done correctly, the conspiracy is often found out (see Aaron Burr’s attempt to become president as an example) and they can seldom survive public attention. It is worth noting that, though an effort has been made to include conspiracy theories from around the world, those from Western society make more appear- ances. This is, in part, because of the nature of conspiracy theories and conspira- cies. It is only within the share-everything Western society that research is feasible for those without academic access. We have sought to include conspira- cies from elsewhere, but true conspiracies are only effective if you don’t know about them, and its often very hard to know about a successfully executed con- spiracy. Additionally, there are nearly as many conspiracy theories out there as there are crackpots who have something to sell. There are so many other conspir- acies out there that could, and have, filled piles upon piles of books. Included Sampleherein is a selection that works especially well for role-playing file games..

  • Unified Conspiracy Theory - Rationalwiki
    Unified Conspiracy Theory - RationalWiki http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Unified_Conspiracy_Theory Unified Conspiracy Theory From RationalWiki The Unified Conspiracy Theory is a conspiracy theory, popular with Some dare call it some paranoids, that all of reality is controlled by a single evil entity that has it in for them. It can be a political entity, like "The Illuminati", or a Conspiracy metaphysical entity, like Satan, but this entity is responsible for the creation and management of everything bad. The Church of the SubGenius has adopted this notion as fundamental dogma. Michael Barkun coined the term "superconspiracy" to refer the idea that the world is controlled by an interlocking hierarchy of conspiracies. Secrets revealed! Similarly, Michael Kelly, a neoconservative journalist, coined the term America Under Siege "fusion paranoia" in 1995 to refer to the blending of conspiracy theories CW Leonis of the left with those of the right into a unified conspiratorial Doug Rokke [1] worldview.

ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION A Soldier at Heart: The Life of Smedley Butler, 1881 - 1940 by Eric Dennis Myers Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Joan Waugh, Chair The dissertation is a historical biography of Smedley Darlington Butler (1881-1940), a decorated soldier and critic of war profiteering during the 1930s. A two-time Congressional Medal of Honor winner and son of a powerful congressman, Butler was one of the most prominent military figures of his era. He witnessed firsthand the American expansionism of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, participating in all of the major conflicts and most of the minor ones. Following his retirement in 1931, Butler became an outspoken critic of American intervention, arguing in speeches and writings against war profiteering and the injustices of expansionism. His critiques represented a wide swath of public opinion at the time – the majority of Americans supported anti-interventionist policies through 1939. Yet unlike other members of the movement, Butler based his theories not on abstract principles, but on experiences culled from decades of soldiering: the terrors and wasted resources of the battlefield, ! ""! ! the use of the American military to bolster corrupt foreign governments, and the influence of powerful, domestic moneyed interests.

Remnants of the Polish Jewry that did not emigrate, regardless of whether they considered themselves Poles, Poles of Jewish descent or Polish Jews, often felt fearful about speaking of their ancestry, let alone acting upon it. Jewish organizations and social life did not disappear, but religious congregations in particular gradually diminished in number and activity. Post-socialist Poland has become an arena of profound transformation of Jewish communal life, fostered by stakeholders with distinct agendas and resources: empowered and politically emancipated Jewish Religious Communities, now-marginalized secular organizations of the communist era, a nascent generation of Polish Jewish activists and volunteers, and transnational Jewish non-governmental organizations.

  • Monopoly & King
    A READER THE LIBERTARIANISM.ORG READER SERIES INTRODUCES THE MAJOR IDEAS AND THINKERS IN THE LIBERTARIAN TRADITION. Who Makes & King Mob Monopoly History Happen? From the ancient origins of their craft, historians have used their work to defend established and powerful interests and regimes. In the modern period, though, historians have emphasized the agency and impact of everyday, average people—common people—without access to conventional political power. Monopoly & King Mob provides readers with dozens of documents from the Early Modern and Modern periods to suggest that the best history is that which accounts for change both “from above” and “from below” in the social hierarchy. When we think of history as the grand timeline of states, politicians, military leaders, great business leaders, and elite philosophers, we skew our view of the world and our ideas about how it works.

  • "The Capstone" an Attempt to Identify The
    "The Capstone" An attempt to identify the 'Head of the Snake' Secret Societies Order of Hospitallers (link) The Knights Hospitaller, also known as the Order of Hospitallers or simply Hospitallers, were a group of men attached to a hospital in Jerusalem that was founded by Blessed Gerard around 1023 out of which two major Orders of Chivalry evolved, the Order of the Knights of St. Lazarus and the Order of the Knights of St. John, later to be known as the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. The Hospitallers arose around the work of an Amalfitan hospital located at the Muristan site in Jerusalem, founded around 1023 to provide care for poor, sick or injured pilgrims to the Holy Land. After the Western Christian conquest of Jerusalem in 1099 during the First Crusade, the organisation became a religious and military order under its own charter, and was charged with the care and defence of the Holy Land. Following the conquest of the Holy Land by Islamic forces, the Order operated from Rhodes, over which it was sovereign, and later from Malta where it administered a vassal state under the Spanish viceroy of Sicily. The Order was weakened by Napoleon's capture of Malta in 1798 and became dispersed throughout Europe. It regained strength during the early 19th century as it repurposed itself towards humanitarian and religious causes. The modern continuation of the mediaeval Order is the Roman Catholic Sovereign Military Order of Malta, headquartered in Rome; allied Protestant orders are headquartered in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden. The first master of the original Order of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem was Brother Gerard (whose origins remain a mystery).

Critics have mostly focused on discussions of moral philosophy and, more recently, of literary creativity as socio- economic behavior. This research looks instead at the business dealings in the novel, especially speculation in the stock market, to examine the moralization of economic activities with references to Wall Street‘s negative image in contemporary popular discourse. The notoriety of the stock exchange comes from its sharp practices, speculative manias, and periodic crashes. Howells also adopts the popular analogy between stock speculation and gambling to highlight the irrational and counterproductive characteristics of the former–an attitude which adheres to Puritan work ethics, bourgeois morality and agrarian values.

  • The Business Plot in the American Press by Bradley M. Galka
    The Business Plot in the American Press by Bradley M. Galka B.S., University at Albany, 2015 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2017 Approved by: Major Professor Donald J. Mrozek Copyright © Bradley Galka 2017. Abstract In the fall of 1934 Major General Smedley Butler, U.S.M.C. (ret.) testified before Congress that he had been approached by a representative of a cabal of wealthy Wall Street bankers, powerful industrial magnates, and shady political operatives to lead a fascist coup to overthrow the administration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Congress investigated Butler’s allegations of a conspiracy against the government and deemed them to be true. The American news media, however, was noticeably divided in the nature of their coverage of the congressional investigation. Previous historians have claimed that elements of the American news media were markedly sympathetic toward fascism in the United States during the 1930s. An analysis of the newspaper coverage of this investigation reveals a stark contrast between ways in which media outlets headed by individuals suspected of fascist sympathies portrayed the story as opposed to media outlets known to be editorially anti-fascist. These findings lend credence to previous historians’ claims about identifiably pro-fascist strains in the American media during the time in question.
