    If you go digging for coincidences, you'll find them no matter where you look, proportionate to however much effort you spend searching. It doesn't mean anything unless you have a specific hypothesis that could be backed up by some coincidences and refuted by others.

    Here, go read Unsong. You'll have a good time, and maybe it'll help get my point across.

      My friend you asked what this video was trying to get across and I am trying to explain that to you. It's not incredibly coherent. I do not believe that this man is the mastermind behind 9/11. I also don't belive the official story given to us. My point in this thread is Kevin is a real person and the circumstances surrounding his video coupled with his previous work history are strange to say the least. Its fun to poke around at but nothing can be taken from it as fact. Its just wierd.

        Are there actual people proposing that Kevin masterminded 9/11? I'd be very much interested in hearing this theory from them.

          My guess from this video is that some people believe that kevin was watching his work in action on remote flight tech being used. He does sound almost excited when he says oh my lord but that's not a justification for believing the dude helped in 9/11. And like I said I'm just guessing at this based off of the video. It is very strange and conspiracy is fun.

      Mostly true but in my experience some events have more coincidences than others, even when controlling for effort and time searching. There are more coincidences surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's prison suicide than there are most prisoner suicides, for example.

      Is Unsong a science fiction novel about conspiracy theories or something?

        It's a fantasy novel about kabbalah.

            It's basically about spitballing reasoning out of coincidences.
