Copy my disc and distribute?

[A.L.EX-N.E.TA]

I've got a DVD-R with Loose Change 2nd Edition and 9/11 Mysteries Part 1: Demolitions on it.

I say we pool some money together to copy the disc as many times as possible and post them off to as many random addresses we can. Maybe even send a bunch to celebrities such as Bob Geldolf and Bono and other people with voices that can reach a high number of people.

I say this is a good idea! Check my proposals for appeals on the International Truth Comission on 911 in another topic.

Sorry to add a negative opinion to your positive idea but it's a total waste of time and resources.

A better idea was once posted by someone and i'd love to re-find the thread, that a serious effort was made to blanket every address in a single town with DVD's, so that a major talking point was created that led to a critical mass.

In reality it wouldn't have worked (hence the buried thread), though its a nice idea attempting to be the media that shapes minds and conversation points on any given day.

Be honest though, how many DVD's have you given out / screened to people or how many people have you at length explained 9/11 and other issues to? How many have been interested enough to actually take part themselves from DVD's at random / film screenings / talks / chats etc? I'm not likeable but i've enthralled/entertained a few crowds, given out hundreds and attended a few screenings, like me I'll wager it ain't that many for many people within the truth get up.

Ergo why spend thousands of pounds posting DVD's to celebrities/politicians (General K Partin issued everyone with his concrete assertions over OKC backed up by Fort Meade studies for nowt) or anyone, when the MSM has made it quietly clear that a revolution of different thinkers exists and they can be found in cyberspace which everyone has. Hell even my dad in rural France has a 12mb connection that does as it says on the tin (unlike UK providers).

Though sadly as a prior qualified electrician like a few I know, he has never heard of Nikola Tesla who invented the AC current they deal with. Maybe A few MRI operators may know him and hopefully Tesla Motors will correct that. So in hindsight perhaps your right afterall. So should I mail Apple Paltrow, Peaches or Fifi Trixabelle with a copy of webfairy or D L Abrahamson first?

Good idea at heart anyway.

I sadly have to agree that most people, seemingly being of limited intellect and free will these days, will not view a free DVD and overnight become part of the Truth movement.

That said, I did once have the idea of burning loads of Loose Change Final Cuts/Endgames and sliding them into Metro newspapers on the busy Stagecoach buses that operate in Newcastle. If people are willing to pick up a fairly respectable newspaper and read it, then surely they will be interested in a 'free DVD' that comes with it. It would be quite hard to implement - one would have to get on the first bus of the morning to do it - but it could make some difference.

These days I have little faith in humanity, however, and think we'd best use the internet to its full potential before it's taken away in its current form, hold public meetings and try and activate our friends and families first in order to wake up those around us.

I suppose any effort is a good effort in all, but totally random posting of information will likely be scoffed at or ignored. 50 years ago it would probably have made a massive difference to the public conscience, but today people are almost willingly naive and ignorant when it comes to the big issues.

Ideas are bulletproof, so let's come up with the most effective ones and try and put them to work.

It is a nice idea.

I have tried it though, with certainly a 100+ discs on buses in the Stockport and Manchester University routes. All the discs were labelled with websites and some with contact numbers and pretty professional looking. I have yet to hear from anyone or ever see a new poster on related forums make an entrance with "Hi all, had my mind blown by an awesome DVD someone had (left in the paper/on bus/pub table/meeting hall/dished out in the street, I bought off a big issue man etc, etc) that led me here!....", so for me at least it seems it doesn't work. I also agree that the blanket posting wouldn't really work, as its just more junk mail.

I tend to think most people get involved following suspicions of their being more to news issues and via online videos and accidental browsing. If the time is right for an individual they seem to get onboard but until then you can debate people blue in the face and show them all sorts and they wont be in any hurry to alter their priorities in life. I think most people probably struggle to get even (or perhaps especially) family interested but I agree that those closest is the first hurdle, gradually expanding to the local community. Public meetings seem the most efficient method going but the work involved to get a decent public awareness of the meeting is surely huge for any group, so hats off to the many who have had success this way.

Giving out DVDs is a great way of spreading information IMHO.

But 9/11 Mysteries is not, also in IMHO - far too loose on its facts.

Loose Change Final Cut may be dry but it is factually superior, I would lean towards packaging it as the "info" film on a disc with a more inspiring number like "Truth Rising" or "Press for Truth" or both if you can fit them on a disc.

But everyone has to make their own decisions as to what they campaign with, and good luck with it!

[Reflecter]

LCFC is indeed a better film than the prior two and mysteries is a little loose. Truth Rising I am about to check out along with the Press for Truth sequel. The first being pretty strong and which did ellicit a few good responses from people I have given it to and have see the reaction of.

I apologise for being generally negative about DVD materials or in general, as I agree they should work. It's just that whilst I continue to produce and distribute them, I have seen very little evidence of how well they should work personally.

Good luck to any campaigning just dont imagine there is likely to be a huge response to whatever efforts or some magic method that will work. Online movies may draw massive attention but they dont seem too in public ownership. Its all happening online at present imhho.

It's a nice idea but it has one fatal flaw, it's unsolicited mail. You could hand them out on the streets but as soon as you start forcing them through people's letter boxes you cross a line.

Go into whsmiths. Make your way to the vast magazine and newspaper section. Start reading a newspaper. Then, slip a dvd into and put it back. Then pick up a magazine. Do the same. Keep doing it til you run out of dvds.

Don't put the films title on them. Just put "free dvd" on the disc and packaging.

If you put 9/11 mysteries on it or 9/11 - whatever it turns people off immediately.

If you put 'free dvd' on them people think it's free with whatever publication they're buying and will give it a chance.

[pyrah]

I was given a DVD back in 2003. Now I'm dedicated to the movement.

Never underestimate the effect of actions, no matter how small.
