I figured the shroomerites on here could watch a movie like Loose Change or Zeitgeist and actually give an informed opinion instead of jumping to the: this movie is bullshit, period, enter...How do you not justify contemplating these issues that we are actually dealing with. Though some of it can be insinuating, alot of it is really happening today. Do people really not care? Or is it the American patronage that is holding people back? I guess we will only find out when it really happens, then we can say, well shit....I hate to say I told you so. end rant. period. enter.

Try posting 16 times a day and you'll soon find your posts to be rather insipid and devoid of worthwhile content too 
There have been a number of in depth discussions regarding the ideas presented in these films. Considering their release dates and the rapid pace of their circulation, common discussion of them now resembles the beating of a dead horse. Whatever that really means..
Search through some older threads to get additional info and if you still have pertinent questions or ideas I'm sure the Shroomerites would be interested to listen momentarily at least.

I gave a detailed response to Zeitgeist(the first part of it...I didn't feel like bother with the other two parts), and I link to it whenever someone tries to spout shit about how it proves Christianity is false or some bullshit like that. I'm not going to give a new detailed, eloquent response to everyone who posts that shit when I was generous enough to do it once, especially since no one ever brings up any new points about it. They just cite it as something that can't be refuted, so I link them to my post refuting it.
As for Loose Change, I stay the hell out of those threads altogether. I honestly do have some suspicions about the official 9/11 story, just I have suspicions about the conspiracy theories surrounding it, but it's been talked to death around here, and honestly I really don't care anymore.

Some of us have debated these movies/subjects to death over the years, yet people bring them up as something new rather than using the search function. Why should we be expected to waste our time debating something like Loose Change again, when nothing has changed, just because a new poster was too lazy to use the search feature?

Here's an idea: Propose some ideas for discussion, instead of just lazily referencing someone's movie. At the very least, propose ideas from the movie to discuss.
Otherwise, you just sound like a whiny bitch.

I'm not trying to bring up any discussions about the past movies. Obviously some of the replies were interesting to read and informative, but the majority just write it off as complete bullshit without even questioning anything. Just seems really closed minded and scares me as a human that people don't really give a rats ass about anything. I'm not looking for a discussion I suppose, but just a hint that more than a handful of people care.

You just said yourself that a handful of people DO care... so why are you still looking?
The rest of your post was basically a repeat of your first.
If you want to have a discussion with a bunch of people who feel the exact same way as you do... a forum is not the place.

I care. But that doesn't necessarily mean that I will agree with all your conclusions.
The truth seems to be (IMO) that the human race is mostly self-centered and ignorant and feels very comfortable with that. I have ceased to look for humanity to change from that.

Sweeping (and false) generalizations are the modus operandi of a very closed mind. Try not to scare yourself.
