astroturfing
/'astro tarfiNG/
noun
the deceptive practice of presenting an orchestrated marketing or public relations campaign in the
guise of unsolicited comments from members of the public.

This definition is actually too narrow for what we’ve endured and are seeing currently ripped down. The astroturf of the last decade plus is much thicker and more far-reaching. In fact, it’s so thick that even now, as the Truman Show movie sets fall apart and the fake walls disintegrate, a vast swath of our nation and world remain convinced the illusion is the reality.

This is what’s called Astroturf. ...

Flood the zone. Saturate the sphere. Make people think there’s a majority, when in fact there’s a very small coordinated minority.

It’s smoke and mirrors.

It doesn’t matter how much evidence DOGE uploads to the Internet or how many lengthy Substacks are written or how many 2+ hour podcasts are recorded. There is a significant percentage of the population that continues to seek the fading construct of an astroturfed sound stage. They would rather continue to sit in the fake theater seats, watching the crumbling façade of a production that was never real but really, really seems like it could be if you squint just right.

If I had a dollar for every time that old eloquent saying “don’t piss down my leg and tell me it’s raining” popped into my head over the last eight years, I would be a much more well-off man. Because that’s exactly what they’ve been doing. They have been pissing down our legs and shoveling piles of crap at us and telling us it’s raining perfume. ...

But while I’ve always known something isn’t right and that the official narrative has never been the actual true story, I could never have imagined just how artificially fabricated the narrative was. I now understand, and I can also now explain how so many continue to buy their daily ticket for the Truman Show even, as it seems to be coming to the end of its run.

Over the last several months, people like Mike Benz, DataRepublican, DOGE and Elon Musk have been grabbing massive chunks of the astroturf and pulling as hard as they can. It’s all starting to come down. The wicked web of NGOs, non-profits, and legit government agencies complicit in plastering our consciousness with all this astroturf are methodically being revealed.




And it is GLORIOUS. It’s appalling, yes. Horrific, absolutely. But maaaaannnn, does it feel good to see these charlatanes and scumbags and grifters exposed. The hacking of this system will continue without mercy.

I’ll admit - I’m a little in awe of the sophistication of the astroturf. It’s quite exquisite in its construct. The sheer volume of organizations working in concert needed to make a fake global construct seem like reality is truly staggering to behold. The money laundering here is, as Elon Musk says, the biggest scam in the history of the world.

Basically, here’s how “the Blob” (as Mike Benz calls it…I call it Hydra), works.

The government takes our money through taxes. We are compelled to turn over 20-50% of our hard-earned income straight to The Blob.

The Blob takes our money and assigns it to some known or unknown government agency.

Those agencies, sometimes through acts of Congress, other times not so much, then keep some for themselves but also pass more along to one of their partners. These could be private contractors, NGOs and non-profits.

These private contractors, NGOs and non-profits don’t have to play by the rules of the Constitution. They can play by whatever rules they want to. They don’t have to listen to you. In fact, they can’t stand you. So they rig the game in their favor.

They then take your money and begin to put up astroturf and wallpaper. They send some money to newspapers and radio and the networks. They send more money to agitators and activists. Still others send your cash to technologists and academics and religious groups and medical experts. This is, of course, after the put a healthy handful into their own pockets. The Truman Show costs a lot of money to produce and maintain.

We the people are then subjected to ceaseless campains of theatrics and manipulation while the elites and deep state operatives play little gods over their own fifedoms. ...

As we collectively continue pull the astroturf down and knock over the Truman Show sets, I find myself breathing a little bit easier. It’s always an amazing feeling to know what you’ve been standing for has real justification and proof that’s getting more evident each day. That’s what the Truth does. It illuminates and reveals all the dark and distorted corners.

Know what else it does? It sends all the creepy and destructive things into a frenzy. All the rats and roaches start to run for the doors.

All the kids who’ve been allowed to run roughshod through the neighborhood, doing whatever they want to whomever they want, who are now suddenly being told playtime has ended, do what every spoiled kid that ever was does.

They cry and scream and call names and threaten.

They break stuff.

They vandalize and write on the walls. ...

When you have lived in an artificial funhouse your entire life that has reinforced walls, fake doors, booby traps, and hallways that lead to nowhere with the sole intent to keep you inside, preocuppied, and entertained, you’re almost surely doomed to being stuck there.

When you’ve spent your formative years within an education system that’s designed to stifle curiosity and critical thinking, you simply cannot see what’s obvious to the rest of us.

And when you spend your days scrolling social media and believing The View, you’re going to be absolutely incapable of seeing what’s on the other side of the wall.

The confirmation bias and cognative dissonance are too strong. The lifetime of literal brainwashing and mind-control makes it impossible.

Let me be very clear: these people are broken. Their brains are literally broken. They have systematically and intentionally been driven mad by diabolical and dangerous people over the course of 40, 50, 60+ years.

The Astroturfers are as ruthless as they are smart. They know and have mastered all the tricks from Goebbels, Bernays, Gottlieb, Alinsky and more. They have years of Soros-funded symphonies of disruption slithering through the system turfing, turfing, always turfing. They point to the rest of the western world still up on stage, feverishly playing their parts in this berserk Truman Show harder than ever.

And they would have gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for those meddling kids. ...

Now, the next few months and even years are going to be incredibly dangerous. They aren’t going down without a fight. They will mobilize their foot soldiers and activate their Manchurian candidates en mass. We’ve already seen the swatting, the doxxing, the attempts at intimidation, and the typical hysterics.

Even as the hives and networks of deception are being severed and taken offline, there are still legion out there working 24x7 to keep the astroturf flowing. This Hydra is far from vanquished. Let US not be under any illusion that we can rest. There are miles to go.
