Icke is a Freemason and is likely controlled disinformation. Much of what he says is true but his reptilian claims causes the majority to dismiss even the true stuff as "conspiracy theory".

What is the evidence you are using for this claim?

Yes, I was just curious what was behind your comment about Steiner. I have known a few people who were involved with his ideas, so I heard about some of them, which I was not particularly drawn to, but found interesting. His architecture, for instance, I found hideous. But I have been impressed by some of the art and writing of several people who went through Waldorf schooling, such that I felt it must be helpful/nurturing for children who are moved that way. Your experience of it seems to have been not totally positive, and that seems interesting also, as you are the first person I’ve encountered with such a report about that system.

“Off” what? “Normalcy?” You need to be more specific if you want to appeal to something deeper that the “normalcy bias” of the typical low-information sheep, don’t you agree?

I know that biodynamically grown grapes for wine are priced at a premium because of his work. Also, he predicted that the method used to create queen bees commercially would lead to problems in a hundred years which seems to have been borne out in experience. Buckminster Fuller said that if you are a generation ahead people call you crazy, and two generations ahead they call it genius, so he said he stayed three generations ahead, LOL!

the more apropos saying today is, if you're one step ahead of the crowd you're called a genius, if you're two steps ahead you're called insane.

Then there is also that Lynard Skynard lyric “Gimmiethree steps Mistergimmie three steps… an I won’t bother you no more!” That was pretty ingenious thinking also.

Yes, he does seem off. He makes connections with uneven probabilities. Some seem perfectly correct, whereas others appear to be way off and wrong. Steiner, and Icke too, seem like good guys. Freemasonry is also good, a method of Spiritual Development. Just because it's secret doesn't make it bad.
