Subject: RE: BS: Concentration camps in U.S. don't exist?
There are many motivations other than the search for truth that may motivate GUEST to post unprovable theories. There are those who just like to stimulate a pile-up of people who could spend their time better. Or divert them from posts where they are whipping the GUEST under their real name. These come under the rubric of stirring the pot.

Othertimes it's an attempt to throw something, anything at the wall and see if it will stick. This may come under the study of credulosity.

There's way more out there than can possibly be true. GUEST is well within that domain.

I file GUEST incited threads as well nigh useless in most cases, unless there is a viable reason for a member to go nameless.
