What the obvious bias of AI reveals about the dishonesty of many “official explanations”
Let’s start with a clip from Bill Hicks on JFK.
Recently Joe Martino sent an email talking about “linchpins” – which are beliefs or ideas that hold many others together – and it made me wonder.

We all remember where we were. I was a pre-teen in Mrs. Ein’s social studies class when the word filtered in that the president had been shot – and then that he was dead.
I remember being home that weekend seeing the alleged gunman, Oswald, shot point blank by a known mobster, Jack Ruby. And I remember my father saying sometime later that he read that when Chief Justice Earl Warren delivered the government report on what had happened there were tears in his eyes.
For me and many of my peers that was the first time we suspected that an official explanation was bullshit. It got worse with Vietnam, and later with Nixon and of course 9-11, and by then we had the term conspiracy theory to debunk what many suspected but was never to be revealed.
A Film That Aimed to Suggest the Truth
So recently I decided to watch the Oliver Stone version of Kennedy (“JFK”) which had a great cast and was admittedly a “docudrama” – a somewhat speculative version of events from known facts and some theories, with quite a bit of actual footage of the time.
And later on, Congressional committees confirmed some of the issues raised – particularly questioning the lone gunman theory. By then Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King had also been killed by “lone gunman”.
So I believe that the JFK whitewash of the truth by the Warren Commission was the lynchpin of many other so-called conspiracy theories; it established in our minds the deep suspicion that the government could not be trusted. And as with the other “conspiracies” we still do not know the real truth.
I think from there we began to look differently at the UFO phenomenon and of course Roswell, and wondered how much NASA was really telling us.
And today, in my opinion, we are still in the dark about two very important recent events, the Jan. 6 insurrection against certifying the 2020 election and the theft and disposition of many classified documents by our previous president.
By now much of the public has lost almost all faith in the official pronouncements of our government.
The truth of much of what we yearn to know is still unknown. And I believe that if one particular event was ever truly elucidated clearly and without prejudice, many of the other mysteries which plague us might also loosen their secrecy and we would be transformed in a deep and meaningful way.
Watching the final scenes of the JFK film crystallized this belief; as DA Jim Garrison Kevin Costner constructs a far more credible sequence of events and squarely blames the Chief Justice for a cover-up, referring to what happened directly as “fascism.” It is chilling when you compare this to current events.
