"My uncle is an old school conspiracy theorist, he toiled away breaking coal with a pick axe looking for diamonds compared to how spoiled we are now. An intelligent man, former Army Ranger turned long haul trucker. Self educated, auto-didact kind of guy. The "anon profile".
He was constantly gobbling up information in the pre internet era. He's basically my subject matter expert on tap for anything to do with the trilateral commission or militia movement stuff from the 90's, he's my guy. But he learning these things was so laborious back then...
Now we've got zoomers speedrunning political theory that millennial anons pioneered through an experience that took almost a decade. 22 year olds Kaczynski posting and chuckling with their friends, niche in-jokes about long dead philosophers and ancient rites. Beautiful."
Old schooler here. 59. Been in it since 1982. 80's and 90's were good times cruising the CT circuit. Arpanet was there, but info was still disseminated through symposiums,, lectures. Had to travel to learn. Great times.
