A Brief Moment of Gratitude to the Controlled Opposition [UPDATE: Triggered ๐]
Youโve made it much easier to figure out ๐
Background
Eight months ago, after a brutal coordinated hate campaign against me on Twitter, I was permanently banned for the third time for not breaking any rules.
I built my account to 60k followers and growing. I trended topics all the time and I was an influential voice. I was averaging 30 million impressions a month. I have never been abusive. Ever.
Then a collaboration of embedded (not so) anonymous operatives executed an operation to smear me and get me banned with the cooperation and validation of fake experts, blue check disinformation agents and Twitter Safety itself. AKA controlled opposition.
I admit that I came very close to giving up in January. I have 45,000 tweets of real time, historic reporting on the insurrection and insurgency in organized threads that are now inaccessible. This was intentional censorship and destroyed a year and a half of my work. I never broke Twitter rules and they know it.
Then for the last eight months they allowed one of the most egregious, blatant harassment and censorship campaigns I have ever seen on Twitter โ and Iโve seen a lot โ against me, my followers, my podcast, my guests, my family, my friends and anyone who dares tweet my name or my work. They even managed to social engineer censorship of my documentary on Youtube.
Just scroll through โTrolls and Miscreantsโ for a flavor of the fraud, defamation, extortion, harassment and harmful disinformation they engage in all day long.
Twitter is complicit. I admit I didnโt count on or plan for that. Regardless, they will be held accountable.
Nonetheless, I rebuilt with a library of a thousand posts on Substack, a wonderful group of subscribers (THANK YOU ๐), loyal friends and colleagues, and have no intention of stopping anytime soon โ although I may take a day off when Flynn gets perp-walked.
Controlled Opposition is a Great Way to Understand the Threat
However, as I wrote about two weeks after I started, while I expected right-wing attacks and I was ready for them, I didnโt understand the โleft-wingโ attacks would be the real problem. Flynn and the Russians set up a network on both sides to control the narrative. It has been working like a charm. For me.
Through my investigation into QAnon, several things became very clear, and when I would tweet or write about them, I would getโฆ objections. The โobjectionsโ were coordinated and came from the same group of โQ expertsโ and leftist trolls. This was the heart of the controlled opposition to QAnon. #RealBlueAnon
Here are some key phrases that triggered the trolls every time I connected them to QAnon:
Anyone who actually knows me is aware I love being challenged. I will defend my position if I believe Iโm right but if someone has a better argument, better information or a legitimate correction to share, Iโm always here for it. But thatโs not what this was.
The โobjectionsโ were always disingenuous, mocking and designed for psychological harm. I was called โBlueAnon,โ โshitlib,โ and โmentally illโ thousands of times. It sucked.
Howeverโฆ drum rollโฆ
My secret to figuring out who is really responsible for all this is simply to monitor the inauthentic attacks generated by the controlled opposition and keep digging in exactly in that spot.
So, while doing this has exposed me to a network of psychopathic criminals who are only there to enforce false narratives and silence truth tellers, it has given me a roadmap right into the center of the beast.
So, for one brief momentโฆ thanks for that guys. ๐
Now, as my readers are aware, there is a psychopath who monitors my Substack and makes the most abusive account names he can think of to โlikeโ any posts or comments. He knows you canโt block people from liking stuff on Substack* so, like everything else in his life, up to and including every person he meets, he abuses it.
But his obsessive compulsive need to find a psychological crack in my armor to break me down is actually super helpful. Every time I post he tells me exactly what heโs worried about. It has already told me lots of things I didnโt know.
Keep it up, Matt. Youโre doing great. ๐

*Substack is working on it ๐๐ผ
[UPDATE]
Who knew Matt Donovan would have a shitfit, bahahaha.
[UPDATE 2]
The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated. ๐คฃ
๐ You are Welcome my friend. Matt Donovan is the troll Jim is referring to. I tried to communicate in a respectful manner with Matt Donovan on both Substack and Twitter. Matt is not to be trusted and it isn't worth the attempt to approach Matt on a even level of conversation. Don't bother. Matt Donovan infiltrated The Thinkin Project and destroyed Jim's effort to help those who had been brainwashed by Michael Flynn's QAnon psyop. Matt, Nicole, mike rothschild and desiree made certain that Jim's efforts would not come to fruition. I told you all that Jim will never give up, and he won't. Love you Jim :) โค๏ธ
Nicole is pathetic. I remember years ago when my kids you young, there was always that deeply insecure mom who acted ridiculous. None of us said โweโre socialistsโ -- this was the late 90s, no one did. We lived in a densely populated hipster area, so if any place would have been DSA/socialist-aligned that would have been the place. It is now.
And also LMAO at Nicoleโs pal, โBerniecratโ Brandee of SF. Brandee owns *an entire house* in DOWNTOWN SF. So lol at these โprogressive activists who hate upper middle class ppl that work in techโ ๐
Nicole, if youโre reading this: I promise, youโll look back at your obnoxious behavior and youโll be embarrassed.
