I discuss my thoughts regarding controlled opposition in the “Reflections on Finger-Pointing” essay after “Rites of the Tear-Downers” (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/rites-of-the-tear-downers), but I am pretty much in agreement with you, Ahmad, about being cautious of accusing anyone of being CO without evidence while acknowledging it is a real strategy deployed (see my discussion of the 2008 “Conspiracy Theories” paper (https://chicagounbound.uchicago.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1068&context=public_law_and_legal_theory) about cognitive infiltration strategies in my Apocaloptimist Manifesto (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/against-defeatism-the-apocaloptimist)).

That said, I think people arguing about who is/isn’t CO is a strategy in itself as it distracts from the deeper purpose of the group and results in a lot of friendly fire casualties and damage. So many people accuse people of true integrity of being CO simply because they disagree with them on this or that topic. People have called Mike Yeadon controlled opposition, FFS. This is how genuine opposition groups become fragmented and ineffectual against the philanthropaths, tyrants, and colluders who should be their true targets.

So my approach is to be aware that controlled opposition does exist but not to waste time/energy on it. If people possess true discernment as many dissidents do, they will recognize when a “leader” gives bad advice and will challenge them on it. My feeling is it is better to teach the tools of discernment (propaganda, social engineering, behavioral psychology, etc.) and let people work out for themselves whom to trust or not. They don’t need me to do that for them as I’m all about empowering individuals to think for themselves.

"I also haven’t yet heard an intelligent coherent explanation why people who have helped to wake millions of people from believing every single thing going in the world, were actually captured in advance. And if they weren’t captured in advance then they aren’t likely to be truly onboard with everything being planned, if at all. Once again this doesn’t mean that they are trustworthy, it just means that maybe people like Michael Ginsburg, Brad Miller and Jane Ruby might not be accurate in their observations.”

This is an important point that is raised and which is absolutely worth addressing.

The first thing is with the words "captured in advance".

What does "in advance" mean in this context? Before the ‘Pandemic’ was declared? Before the Injectables started rolling out? When exactly?

The second thing is that it is crucial imho to understand that someone can become "controlled opposition" as the campaign unfolds and sometimes without their knowledge or even against their will (e.g. blackmail).

As far as why such people will go ahead and wake up so many people with their revelations, this is THE point and is something that people genuinely struggle to get their head around (myself included earlier in the campaign) so it is worth repeating as often as needed:

Controlled Opposition operatives throughout history often (almost always as far as the current WWIII is concerned) will deploy a tactic known as Paltering (a.k.a. Limited Hangout) whereby they reveal some truths to firstly gain credibility but also to stop other parts of the truth, which are actually crucial for the enemy, from coming out (the infamous “look here but not there” trick).

I'd argue that the most elaborate Paltering Operation ever conducted in (known) human history is QAnon. It is on the level of "Operation Trust" but amplified significantly using the modern tools of the Internet and especially social media.

Paltering is a VERY nasty tactic indeed and something we all must be very very much across of if we are to prevail in WWIII (now approaching the end of its fifth year).

I have written a very lengthy article about Paltering awhile back which I hope people find useful:
