Stating the obvious and building an empire

Xer Camus quotes Lara Logan stating the obvious to those who stop and think ... which at the same time is a huge scoop for those who hitherto have not thought much about such things ... or disinformation in the eyes of the bad players themselves. Even today, Macron is trying to create an Official Information channel, a la Ahern in NZ ... a single point of Truth.

Look particularly at the first para below ... the tone.
Lara Logan delivered one of the clearest, most powerful breakdowns you’ll hear this year — and it’s only 2 minutes long. Her core argument: many of today’s biggest “crises” share the exact same pattern on purpose. They take something natural or unavoidable… → label it a fatal flaw → declare it impossible to ever fully fix → and then demand endless control to “manage” it. Examples she gives: • Breathing out CO2 (essential for plants & all life) → framed as planetary poison • Natural human tendency to feel most comfortable around shared culture & values (Chinatown, Little Italy, every diaspora ever) → branded as bigotry • Normal masculine or feminine instincts → called “toxic” • Even consciousness itself → “unconscious bias” you can never fully escape “Create a problem that can never be solved,” she says, “and you can rule through it forever.” Once you hear her explain the tactic, you start seeing it everywhere — climate, identity, food, energy, speech. If you’ve felt something was off for years but couldn’t quite name it… this is it.
Why do I not provide links above, though naming and attributing, should you wish to explore?

Answer is because there's a phenomenon we're being drawn into, antiWoke pundits, in playing the feted Superjourno, a la MSM style, using the same sensationalist rhetoric, with the whole purpose building huge "reach", huge numbers, then changing the names of these Uberjournos to "Influencers" ... and that's all the game is ... getting you, the bunny, to subscribe and "buy them a coffee".

Two names are Emerald Robinson and Benny Johnson in the States. They have "shows", the idea being that you sign up for their "exclusive" content, thereby building their empires.

I was banned, long ago from what was Dorsey's twitter for supporting Derek Chauvin over Fentanyl Floyd, plus last year I had the blog N.O. stolen by a nameless platform, for nominal reasons but the real reason was increasing reach. Too many "impressions". Julia's had bans too over time.

Yesterday, I had "visibility restricted" in a generated letter to the mail inbox over some post they'd chosen to hit ... might have been any. There was even a phase we pundits went through where we'd call it a "badge of honour" to be banned.

Not much point in that though, dear reader, if no one at all can read your posts.

Yes, Camus and Lara are correct in what they say ... but it's hardly new ... in fact, Emerald was complaining that she was not invited on Benny Johnson's "show". It was over Patrick Byrne's revelations (real ones) about the old admin ... but Mr. Benny was presenting it, though attributing to be fair, as his "scoop".

The Woke and globopsycho, plus the deathcults, are grinning fit to burst ... the "far right" eating itself.

My advice for what it's worth? Beware of any pundit self-aggrandising, building a brand name on the back of "news". Be careful of substack in that respect ... it attracts them. Because the central thing then is not getting a discovered morsel out to the online public ... it's personal empire building.
