I'm not being weird about THAT, I'm speculating on the reason why alot of people are paranoid about every single thing that happens, or is reported.  

My point was that this level of distrust and paranoia that many have, didn't just come from nowhere.  It's 90% justifiable for the most part.    Do you not agree?   

Give examples of distrust and paranoia that "many" have?  Seems like a little self-projection here on your part, . . . .and I sure as heck don't understand the connection you are trying to make to the EBS.

It's no different than the TV/Radio tests we grew up with. Except that now most people younger than us don't watch TV or listen to radio. They stream it all via their phones. Then did the same test in 2018. And they need to practice so they don't tell Hawaii and N Korean nukes are inbound again or used to actually communicate to a community and dangers (again like the Hawaii wildfires) are on the way. 

Frankly, the distrust comes from people buying into BS conspiracy theories, which are incredibly easy to avoid.

I can relate. Have a friend that completely believed it was some sort of government secret thing going on to spy on all of us. Never mind that they can ping your cell phone at any given time and probably find you, but hey what do I know. I do know that a lot of people get paranoid like wrench said when something like this comes up.

No.   

Stop trying to troll me.   If you don't get it then I'll accept that. 👍

I am not paranoid nor do I care about the test, but I generally despise the government. There are too many real examples of the Feds lying to or keeping things from the citizenry. MKULTRA and all of its sub-categories, aliens, Gulf of Tonkin, Project Sunshine, WMDs, Operation Paperclip, crack/war on drugs, etc. The list goes on an on.

And you think they aren't still doing this type of stuff? Please. The QANON/ANTIFA stuff is wild and totally bats**t. But when the bootlickin, government lovers call everybody crazy just remember it's only crazy right now.

File this one as another deeply cerebral conversation with Ernest T. Bass.  🤣🤣   

You been spending time with Oneshot at the command center?  🤣🤣

I want to be a conspiracy theorist, but firmly believe that the Government is incapable of doing anything and keeping it secret for very long.

I turned my phone off, just so mine wasn't dinging with the others.  I was in a CAM meeting.  But then after I turned mine back on - they got me.

I always wondered about those EBS tests on radio and TV  and this no different, who are they broadcasting to? you know that any emergency action by government or military will be done in secret  "need to know" just as it always has been

and if there was a real emergency who would have power to run the TV to hear the broadcast?
