I'm sure the Japanese have a different interpretation of the whole "All Seeing Eye" thing.

Space Dandy hasn't even aired in Japan yet. It's originally in english and was made specifically for Toonami. Just because it is an anime doesn't mean it's all Japanese. And also, I doubt it. I don't think it's much of a thing over there in Japan in the first place.

Well, it seems to me that Space Dandy is intended to poke fun at America. actually, scratch that. It [i]is[/i] poking fun at America. Ever bring into consideration that they may be making fun of those conspiracy nuts that litter the country? But aside from that, Space Dandy was still produced in Japan. Just because it was made with an American audience in mind does not mean that it was made to be purely American. It still has a very distinctly Japanese feel to it. It's Western-influenced, but not even close to being truly Western.

I don't think it really matters. If it is the illuminati, they have influence on media from around the world. It doesn't matter what one country thinks of the symbols.

If they've got so much influence, then how'd you make that post?

What do you mean?

Well, think about it. If the Illuminati is really such an all-powerful shadow organization that's secretly pulling the strings of basically every major country, why would they be so sloppy as to allow their very existence to be exposed? If I led a clandestine organization such as the Illuminati, I'd make sure that the web was monitored to keep such information from getting out in the first place. And yet, you and everyone else knows about it, and you just made that post.

Well as someone once once said, "The devil's greatest trick was convincing the world that he did not exist." Mass censoring would not be necessary. All they would have to do is portray anyone that is trying to alert the world to their existence as a crazy conspiracy theorist. Any real threats to their organization would be eliminated silently and would fade into the everyday occurrences of life such as traffic accident or a heart attack. The general public is often to ignorant to think anything of the illuminati even if they do notice the signs. As long as it doesn't directly affect them, they don't care. Those who do try to say anything don't make any progress due to the image that has been created that associates the illuminati with crazy people and conspiracy theories. People like to stay in their comfort zone and ignore anything that is not in it. A society like the illuminati can take advantage of this easily, with minimal censoring. In fact, releasing evidence of their existence can help their cause, in some cases.

Well, this is a pointless discussion anyhow, seeing as there is absolutely no grounds for either argument, given both sides' refusal to believe the other. You can take you conspiracies and have fun looking for the 1% that are true. I'll be over here, laughing at the 99% that are false.
