Don't forget about the TPP!
211 2015-12-06 by G_Wash1776
With the attacks in Paris and California, Turkey shooting down a Russian plane, etc. There have been many distractions, resulting in conversations about the TPP dwindling in this sub. Just a friendly reminder that it is still up for vote, and needs more attention.

We need to do more than just talk about it.

Couldn't agree more, we need to march on D.C.

gotta keep reminding people; it's not an "interesting" subject, but it is important.

I think you hit a nerve that could get more people involved. It seems very boring and uninteresting because we are so intrigued by blood. If we could capture attentions by making it more interesting? I have no ideas wat I'm talking gout.

that's it -- people are afraid of death, most importantly their own, they won't blink killing a fake enemy -- the real enemy is fear, fear of what's different, of what doesn't look like them, fear of releasing the old tired fucked up world they're accustomed to, that's a fear of the unknown. we have to release the fear.

The evidence trail on the SB shooting is still hot, stay focused there!

I don't disagree with this, some very fishy shit went down with that shooting. I was just trying to remind people of the massive trade deal being done out of the spotlight created by these other events.
2 supermanofsaturn 2015-12-06
True, good point
2 TeChinga 2015-12-06
Think about it though. SB is like a conspiracy theorists paradise. So much strange shit to question, so slowly developing, people can have a field day. It's most likely being used as a strong distraction from TPP
1 CelineHagbard 2015-12-06
If anything I'd see it as more of a distraction from Syria and/or a justification for further involvement there. I don't think TPP is expected to be voted on until the summer, and Americans don't have that long of an attention span anyway.
1 SleazySnake 2015-12-06
That's just what the powers that be want. Keep looking at SB, while they do whatever it is they want behind your back while you're preoccupied on the meaningless
0 supermanofsaturn 2015-12-06
Well I agree, it's pointless to focus on SB unless its possible to expose it as a cover-up.
1 SleazySnake 2015-12-06
It's just a distraction
1 supermanofsaturn 2015-12-06
But if you could expose that distraction it would be a big deal
2 SleazySnake 2015-12-06
Meanwhile you are missing the real action. It's like a magician, they get you to focus your attention on what they want, while the nuts and bolts of the trick are happening where you are not looking. Even if you can figure out that they distracted you, you still missed what was going on while you were focused on the distraction. Which is exactly what they wanted.
1 supermanofsaturn 2015-12-06
Well I don't know even where you could expose TPP anymore than it has been exposed. People aren't going to care right now anyway, but if you could expose San Bernardino right now people would care.
1 SleazySnake 2015-12-06
I'm not totally convinced that this event was intended to be a distraction about the TPP. It just might have more to do with what is going on with ISIS oil and Turkey and the dots that are being connected there.
1 supermanofsaturn 2015-12-06
It's probably multi-functional, ya know kill 14 birds with 3 special ops.
1 SleazySnake 2015-12-06
Yeah. It probably is. There is definitely something that they don't want scrutinized.

SB is a distraction from the TPP
1 supermanofsaturn 2015-12-06
It serves more functions than that

Distractions will not stop us!
2 OligarchyMurica 2015-12-06
the current political status in the world disagrees with that statement
1 bettertjw 2015-12-06
Can someone please TL;DR the TPP for me? I have a loose understanding of it but what will it mean for the common man?
1 marsattacksuranus 2015-12-06
I disagree and firmly believe TPP is disonfo and although it might contain a degree of truth it is merely a diversion to distract from the greater issues at hand such as the vast amount of money and effort put into secret space programs and political relations with extraterrestrials.

Why is this sub so against the tpp?
8 G_Wash1776 2015-12-06
Assuming your sincere, here's some stuff to look at regarding the TPP:
Electronic Frontier Foundation
Al Jazeera on the impacts to pharmaceuticals
Vice speaking on the copyright clause allowing corporations to sue sovereign nations for unlimited amounts of money
3 notjaker44 2015-12-06
I think you're joking, but if you're not, it's because it is essentially the corporate takeover of what the corporations don't already own. Corporations would essentially become more powerful than states with the ability to sue states over lost profits. They will ship jobs to wherever they are cheapest. Corporations would also get to control environmental law, and that's about all I remember from what I read about it. It's the biggest corporate power grab in history, and that's not good.
