  共同謀議 - conspiracy

I was walking in Harajuku with a friend the other day when an old bearded gaijin guy came up to me and said "BEWARE the INTERNET it will BETRAY YOU", certainly got my attention more than the usual Goth Lolitas and Rockabillies and handed me this flyer....THE END IS NIGH ! 666 NEW WORLD ORDER ARMAGEDDON !

Turns out he was a missionary for The Family a fundamentalist cult from way back in the 60's still active today. The flyers artwork (very nostalgic British comic style) and contents were what you would expect from a bearded old guy in a park saying "The internet will betray you"....pretty far out there....

Though I must confess I like the occasional NWO nutter and Armageddonists conspiracy spreader or general "Kooks" as described by Donna Kossy.

Just because the ideas seem insane,extreme, out there or just crackpot, the very fact they exist means there must be some minute, sliver of tiny Truth to it; albeit a barking mad one, still "ideas" all the same....

BUT

Sasqwach neither condones nor advocates walking up to strangers and saying "Beware the internet it will betray you"...
