I might compare what we've seen in the "freedom movement" to what happened when Ron Paul ran for president the last time (2012). For many months, this was a grass-roots "freedom movement" that pulled in libertarians, conservatives who weren't neocons and even plenty of liberals.

Then the Powers that Be saw that this movement was getting too serious - was becoming too much of a threat - and, in about one week, Paul's campaign was nuked (the "narrative" weapon was that Paul was a closet racist).

Then the Republican establishment captured or co-opted the authentic "Tea Party Movement."

The bottom-line for me is that all the important "truth-seeking" organizations are completely captured. Somehow we've got to get ONE captured organization to become uncaptured. Somebody important is going to have to break ranks from the "club" and then we can hope that a few more people in the "pack" follow their lead.

Until that happens, Substack is the best place for us to try to debunk false narratives. But I too have noted with concern the civil wars breaking out in the "freedom fighters" on Substack.
