The Patriot Movement Illusion (I)
by Victor Thorn
 
 

What would you think if it was proven (in a very simple way) that a vast conspiracy was being pulled on you? No, I'm not talking about the government-New World Order-mainstream media con job. We all know about that one. But what if you found out that a large percentage of alternative media figures in the patriot movement were sucking you into the same exact type of Illusion that plagues virtually every other area of our existence?

What if it was proven that the people who were behind this con-job actually saw you as “suckers” and “marks” when they were pulling their hoaxes (while laughing all the way to the bank)?

Finally, what if this massive deception was being perpetrated by the very same “heroes” of the patriot movement whose voices you hear every day?

How would you feel? Betrayed? Disillusioned?

Well, in this three-part article I’m going to show how quite a number of everyday, honest-to-goodness truth-seekers are being cruelly duped in just such a way.

But first, let’s take a look at a few other areas where we know that some shrewd con-artists have been pulling the wool over their followers eyes for decades. As you're reading each category, try to relate these tricks to those being used by the alternative media shysters.

1) Professional Wrestling: Every match is choreographed behind-the-scenes, the moves are largely faked, and every outcome is predetermined. Fans that aren’t aware of the “fix” are sneeringly referred to as “marks.”

2) Stage Magicians: Women aren’t really sawed in half, the Statue of Liberty doesn’t disappear, while illusion and misdirection are continually used to dupe the audience.

3) Carnival Sideshow Barkers: The headless woman, frog boys, mermaids, and the “bottle game” that nobody ever wins at. As P.T. Barnum once said, “There’s a sucker born every minute.”

4) Televangelists: Just give your money to the TV preacher and he’ll serve as your direct conduit to God. Or else they’ll speak in tongues, cure the “crippled,” and writhe on the floor while casting out demons. In the meantime, Jim & Tammy Faye Bakker were pocketing millions, and Jimmy Swaggart was blowing his load inside cheap skid-row whores. But remember, it was "GOD" that told these cretins that they needed to build an amusement park to make even more $$$!

5) Cults: Charles Manson’s “Family,” Jim Jones’ Guyana Suicide Cult, Moonies, Hare Krishnas … need I say more? They promise utopia, yet deliver hellish tyranny, brainwashing, and no positive change in the future. These movements are littered with the most pathetic groupies, sycophants, and brain-dead zombies imaginable (which is why they're targeted by the "cult leader" who appeals to the least-common-denominator).

6) Banking: The Federal Reserve is nothing more than a blatant Ponzi scheme that has been made into a religion; when in fact the entire scheme is based on a lie where money is literally created out of thin air.

7) Wheeler Dealers: The Elmer Gantry syndrome where snake-oil salesmen will supposedly cure your every ill with their products, or slick businessmen concoct pyramid schemes, fake lottos, and 'spam' Nigerian money transfers on the Internet in an attempt to continually suck more money out of you. It's the old "hard-sell" ---- buy buy buy.

8) Charities: Under the guise of assisting the poor or helping disaster victims, this racket is one of the worst scams of all-time. Just look at how the Red Cross manipulated tens of millions of dollars after 9-11, then funneled it toward their own agenda.

9) Politics: Supposedly we live in a constitutional republic where our elected officials do everything in their power to represent the people’s best interests. Furthermore, during our school years we’re told that anyone can grow up to be President. But with the Republican/Democratic political machines controlling not only who gets on the ballot, but how the votes are counted (i.e. Diebold), we discover yet another vast illusion.

10) Mainstream Corporate Media: Freedom of the press and a watchdog for the people that expose government crimes, business fraud, and makes sure that corruption doesn’t become widespread in society. Independent, fair and balanced … sure? Look at the OKC Bombing, TWA 800, 9-11, and a list that’s longer than your arm of all that’s been covered-up by these sell-outs and cowards. Plus, the only way you can become part of their "clique" is to be a compliant Company Man that follows all the rules and doesn't talk about certain "taboo" subjects.

11) Criminal Police: To serve and protect (at least in theory), but these bozos on-the-take are sometimes dirtier than the crooks they’re supposedly battling. A perfect example is Frank Serpico in New York City. Plus, law enforcement’s deafening silence in the face of the many governmental conspiracies surrounding us is inexcusable (re: the murder of Terrence Yeakey, 9-11, etc).

12) Public Education: History books teeming with lies, and the perpetuation of a “class system” where every student is taught to accept their place in society while at the same time becoming a docile, unquestioning little cog in the wheel. Should be renamed “public indoctrination” or “public conditioning.”

13) Organized Religion: Pope John Paul II once told the Los Angeles Times that he was a conduit to God and that the only way people could reach heaven was through him. Pass the collection plate because the more you give to the Church, the more God loves you.

14) Parents: Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and an Easter Bunny that leaves bright colored eggs. Massive lies since day one.

This list could continue for pages, and most certainly you could name plenty of other examples. The point I’m trying to make is that in every stage of life, virtually everything done to you is a massive con-job in one way or another.

It’s the perpetuation of elaborate ILLUSIONS and LIES which are intended to prevent you from viewing truth and reality. And now, as you'll soon find out, these exact same techniques are being used on you in the "patriot movement" to either keep you contained, or to get your $$$$$.

At the end of The Patriot Movement Illusion (part one) I listed a number of areas in life where people are being scammed, and are therefore forced to live in a realm of un-reality. With this sentiment in mind, ask yourself a question: do you think the evil bastards who run the world and do everything possible to keep the ILLUSION intact aren’t going to infiltrate the patriot movement, especially when there is verifiable proof that they’ve done so many times in the past?

The answer, of course, is that YES, the New World Order elite have a vested interest in controlling what messages are relayed by the “alternative media” (and subsequently sabotaging them). If you believe the anti-NWO literature, these figures have their fingers in every aspect of society, including politics, the mainstream media, religion, etc.

So, do you think they’d simply overlook the patriot movement, especially when it caters to those who are most apt to see through the veil? Not a chance. In fact, these monsters have targeted the patriot movement as one of their top priorities!

Thus, who do you think would be infiltrated or controlled in the alternative media? A couple of small sites in Topeka, Kansas or Bowling Green, Ohio that get 500 hits/month? Hell no – they’d naturally infiltrate the biggest sites with the biggest names around. That makes sense, doesn’t it? Why should they waste their time on a bunch of insignificant zeroes if they can instead control the top ten or twelve sites and radio show hosts?

This is Logic 101, and it’s the BIGGEST SECRETTHE BIGGEST ILLUSION that the leading figures in the patriot movement want to prevent you from realizing.

As things stand right now, we’re incapable of defeating the New World Order – they have too much money, military might, and resources. Plus, the leading alternative media figures have been superb at keeping this movement unorganized.

So, even though evil will always exist, there’s still a way to free yourself from their mind control, and that’s to discover the TRUTH.

In this light, during the remainder of this article I’m going to systematically expose how the patriot movement-alternative media has been – and continues to be – co-opted, controlled, infiltrated and manipulated.

If the reader can grasp this concept, then they’ve finally, once-and-for-all, freed themselves from the Matrix-Illusion.

==================================================

“Con games never remain stationary. The principle may be old, but the external forms are always changing, for con men know they must adapt their schemes to the times.”

David Maurer
The Big Con

The basis of the Lie … the crux of the Illusion … is that there actually is an authentic patriot movement that wants, at its fundamental core, the TRUTH. But in reality, there’s no movement whatsoever. How could there be, for when given an opportunity over the past two decades, there is still no firm organization, no objective, no plan, no concrete goal, and no specifically identified enemy other than the deliberately vague “NWO” or “Illuminati”.

Look at any corporation in the world. Every single one of them has a business plan which is clearly spelled out. Yet the patriot movement hasn’t effectively progressed beyond its loosely-founded operations in the early-to-mid 1980’s. Even then, as Michael Collins Piper noted, many of these groups were nothing more than ADL or SPLC fronts masquerading as patriots.

Now, as a tangent, I’m going to veer off into the world of professional wrestling where they have a word to describe fans who think their matches are real. The word is “MARK,” and it can be related to anyone who isn’t privy to inside knowledge. Pro wrestlers use the word “mark” as a put-down to describe the dupes, as do con men and grifters (“Hey, that chump looks like an easy mark”). Likewise, anyone who still foolishly believes that the so-called "leaders" of our patriot movement actually exist to promote their best interests is a mark (just like the suckers who thinks our legislators in D.C. are there to advance their best interests).

In this light, the con man is a salesman of make believe … of Illusions. Thus, I’m reminded of another quote: “For a confidence game to be ideal, it is essential that the victim not realize that he has been swindled.”

So, to succeed, the pay-triot con man (similar to slimy televangelists) relies on naïve individuals whose confidence they try to gain. In addition, these guys often work with one or more accomplices (shills) who reinforce their deception. At WING TV, we call them Company Men.

All of the methods used by these deceivers to make you take pity on them are based in whole (or in part) on lies: their life is being threatened by the NWO; if they don’t suck more money out of you they’ll go off the air; or their car is broken down on a “patriot tour” (Phil Jayhan’s Panhandling Across America scam). The end result, though, is that people end-up paying a lot of dough for information that is readily available for free (especially with the Internet information explosion).

Undoubtedly, the goal of these bamboozlers is that you continue to keep trusting in the ILLUSION that they have created. So, the first thing these slick talkers do is try to get their “mark” to gain confidence in them; then they can (1) dupe them (make money), and (2) contain them as truth-seeking patriots (i.e. render them ineffective as a collective group).

Don't you get it? These shysters are simply another arm of the NWO octopus, and they have more money than you do; yet they keep trying to suck more and more of it out of you --- just like the government does! It's all a ruse because they're one-in-the-same!!!!

The Patriot Movement Illusion (III)

To begin the final segment of this essay, we have to ask ourselves a question: how do all of the above-mentioned con-men keep their scams going for so long? Listed below are a few of their techniques.

ONE: One of the ways is by continually delaying the “payoff,” sort of like religious figures that promise their congregations heaven, but never have to deliver because once they die, who’ll ever know! In other words, it doesn’t cost them anything because they never have to worry about fulfilling their promises. Similarly, a number of radio personalities have been in the alternative media for over a decade, but there is still no organization whatsoever. What are these guys doing other than yelling, “Let’s take on the New World Order”?

Don’t their listeners ever ask, “What are they waiting for?” These guys started their radio "business careers" in the early 1990’s, and the only thing they’re doing is talking (just like they were over a decade ago); or else selling videos and their pay-per-view websites.

TWO: Another sly maneuver they use is “vagueness” … in other words, they keep their purported enemies shadowy and indistinct, like the “New World Order,” “Illuminati,” and/or “globalists.”

THREE: Keep getting new “customers” or marks. Why do you think they’re constantly telling you to “spread the word,” or to copy their DVDs and give them away? It’s called Marketing 101 – free publicity – and the dupes doing their work for them are too lame-brained to realize it. While those making the DVDs rake in all the money (and lots of it), they have lemmings and lackeys working as unpaid slaves. Now do you know why they’re known as MARKS?

Another reason why they always need new customers is because people eventually catch on to their ruse and say, “I’m not falling for this crap any more.” So, the shysters continually need new suckers to replace the old ones. [And hey, if you’re still one of the lemmings that haven’t seen through the b.s. yet, remember, the grifters are laughing all the way to the bank.]

FOUR: Avoid mentioning (at all costs) the names of those people who expose the con game. Why do you think WING TV has been blacklisted to such an extent by all these “pay-triots”? It’s because we’re exposing them, and they don’t want anyone catching on to their scams.

FIVE: Paid shills are placed in online forums and on message boards to constantly give glowing testimonials for the Elmer Gantry’s, or to stick up for them when they’re being exposed. If anyone looks around these little chat rooms, they’ll see the same names popping up time after time. I mean, nobody could be that stupid or lame to spend all day in these little chat rooms (so reminiscent of high school girls chatting on the telephone), so the only explanation is that quite a number of them are getting paid. How pathetic.

SIX: Claim to have a special relationship with a higher power, like Alex Jones who says that “God” has protected him over the years from being killed by the New World Order, and that “bad things will happen” to those who criticize him. This sounds like a David Koresh complex to me.

SEVEN: Lie about their income. One well-known talk show host boasts that “90% of his revenue goes back into fighting the New World Order.” But in reality, this guy is buying apartment complexes and investing in other areas that have nothing to do with the NWO. But y’see, the stupid SHEEPLE aren’t privy to that type of information … they’re supposed to just keep sipping their Kool-Aid like the zombies at Guyana did for Reverend Jim Jones.

Can’t you see? They all use the same damn tricks!!! How can anybody be gullible enough to fall for these tactics?

At any rate, what we really have is a group of people (the Patriot Movement) who are being fed a certain amount of limited-hangout information, but with no action to back it up. And as I’ve relayed numerous times before, knowledge without action is useless, for if you knew your car was going to be vandalized yet you did nothing about it, what good was the information?

Still, the MARKS keep getting sucked into these traps because the con-men give them a feeling of importance – like Charles Manson did at Spahn Rahn. All of them were told that they were given truths which were hidden from all others. In the patriot movement, you can hear the sideshow barkers all day long ranting about, “You know things nobody in the mainstream media is saying.” But then again, this same tactic has been used for hundreds of years by secret societies, cults, and organized religion. Just look at the Freemasons or Bohemian Grove --- they use the same techniques. The only thing that’s different is the message – and even then, as we all know, the lower ranks (initiates, marks) are never made aware of what is being done at the higher levels.

Do you think it’s any different with the patriot movement con-men? Hell no! Their MARKS are the outer ring dupes who they laugh at for being so naïve, silent, and docile. But don’t ever ask a question, because then there’s trouble. It’s just like churches all around the world – none of them want you ask anything … just accept everything that’s being said on blind faith.

Wow, that’s really an honorable trait for a supposedly independent “truth-seeker,” huh?

The end result is that hard-working people not only surrender their money to these shysters, but more importantly they also lose faith after discovering they’d been snookered. There isn’t much worse in life than someone who purports to be one thing (especially a patriot), but in reality is something far different (a betrayer).

This disillusionment is what takes a piece of life from well-intentioned people, for the con-men exploit their foolishness, and the trust of their MARKS. Or, worse, there are useful idiots that never realize they’re being swindled, nor are they bright enough to even complain about it. These individuals actually cooperate in their own fleecing by spreading the word for their manipulators; and then they willingly keep coming back time and time again for more deception. Unbelievable! Even when their eyes are temporarily opened, they refuse to look, and instead trudge compliantly back to their whipping post like a beaten dog.

It’s genuinely sad, because these hapless souls – who view themselves as enlightened patriots – have in actuality been effectively corralled into a pen just like those who are ardent followers of CNN or FOX News. How so? Well, these fake pay-triots are giving their devotees (groupies) small doses of truth, but are – in an overall sense – keeping them contained in a pen (as per design); for a little truth mixed with disinformation still ends up being disinformation. Plus, when there is zero organizational structure, and the MARKS are being plied with false hope, they end up being as bamboozled as all the other groups listed in part one of this article. [And when you think of it, that’s not a rewarding position for the patriot movement to be in.]

In closing, I realize that what I’ve written in this piece is rather bleak, for at this stage of the “game” – considering our lack of structure – we can’t, in all honesty, beat the NWO elite. The reason why is obvious: they’ve infiltrated our ranks to such a large extent that they’ve rendered us ineffective with their debilitating shysters.

But don’t give up hope, because even though we can’t defeat the implementers of evil at this point in time; we can still know the truth, for as Jesus said, “The truth shall set you free.”

So, what does one do now after realizing that the vast majority of those that they formerly entrusted are actually con men in league with a cadre of globalist criminals (i.e. the enemy)? The first thing, naturally, is to pull one’s head out of the sand (who needs the Ostrich Complex); then move forward to genuine sources of news and information.

Actually, the four steps necessary to free one’s mind are simple:

          1) Erase the previous brainwashing
          2) Refuse to play the con-man’s game
          3) Don’t give them your money
          4) Tell others about the scam

Remember, it’s impossible to con a completely honest person because they don’t have any greed or deceit in their hearts which can be manipulated. This same rationale applies to those who ravenously seek the truth, for an intellectually honest person can never be made a MARK when their mind refuses to allow itself to fall under the illusion.

The choice is now up to you – do you want TRUTH OR ILLUSION?
