89. Sure, sometimes. I watch and read a LOT of different things, even InfoWars

Oct 2013

I want to see for myself whats out there. Its like Facebook; friends will post a story about whatever, and I'll try to find it from a different source to see for myself if its accurate. Many times it's not.
I would say out of everything Ive seen that gets a lot of viewers/readers, InfoWars has to be the most out-there of them all. But there are minor ones that are truly weird. Check out "wellaware.com" That guy thinks that famous people and politicians are actually actors playing a part. Newtown was faked, etc. theres some wild shit out there.
Too many people are too narrow minded when it comes to sources. Not in the way they think, but what they'll read, etc. Sometimes you find out things that are true in places you normally wouldnt think of.
