I still don't understand why this isn't filed under the forum for conspiracy theories.

It's not a conspiracy theory if it's real.

It reminds me of Svengali.

Ah! But McDonalds wants you to know and recognise their brand, so that you buy more Big Macs!

What is the NWO's equivalent of a Big Mac? What is it that their brand is offering?




This brings up another interesting point.

Symbols have no inherent meaning, only the meaning we give them.
The McDonalds logo is only effective because we associate it with McDonalds.

If you didnt know that it symbolized McDonalds it wouldnt have much effect on you.




really?  okay,  lets pretend you have no idea what McDonalds is.  you are walking around town and you start to notice there are lots of giant golden arches everywhere.  you still have no idea what the arches mean, but you will probably make the connection that whoever owns these arches also runs a lot of the space around town.  when you begin visualizing the town spatially you will start to associate the golden arches as prominent landmarks. "turn left at those big gold arches, can't miss em".  wouldn't you say just seeing them everywhere lends a certain degree of power to them(in terms of in your own thoughts)  whether you understand what they literally represent or not?






How does what you said related to my statement in any way? Even if the arches in your scenario had a sort of "power" its certainly not the kind of power that would justify all the effort of putting them up.




my response seemed pretty simple to understand...

you said the mcdonald's logo wouldn't have much effect if you didn't know what it meant.  i responded that it would because of its visual dominance in the environment, regardless of whether you knew the referent or not. 

again bringing this back to gang tags, you may have no clue what they mean literally, but if you start seeing them on every city block you would probably get the idea that they are a dominant gang in the area and associate that symbol with power.

Also the arches are kind of different from these illuminati symbols in that they are wide out in the open for everyone to see. The zionist symbols youve seen so far are hidden and have to be searched for(the olympic symbol, the lighting ect.)




sorry, i was not referring to the hidden ZION in the 2012 logo, but overt symbols like the 'eye in the pyramid' that can be found everywhere in financial / religious / political / defense /corporate insignia.

Sure it is.  Theories can be real, and so can conspiracies.

You see what I mean? Based on your logic Kilroy is either the secret ruler of the world or the head of all organized crime.

It started out as a legitimate political discussion about Iran seeking attention.  As you have pointed out, it has since degraded into a waste of :tinfoil: BS.  I'll leave it to the mods to decide what to do with it, if anything.

Just so I've got this right... Iran is upset that the Jews control the Olympics.

But the Jews have ALWAYS controlled the Olympics. Well, ever since the French brought them back in 1796. Why is Iran complanning now?

Maybe they were hoping to get a gold in Pole-Vaulting?
