Speaking of which, my "radar" detects something off about Allison McDowell. For now, it's just my sense that she's unnecessarily prickly and lacks self-awareness/self-critical faculties to see that her analytical activity is WAY over-complex for the vast majority of people. When I point this out ever so slightly, she reacts defensively like a sea urchin that's been prodded in a coral reef. Not a good sign.

Thanks, that's interesting and disappointing. At the end of the day, I just follow someone new I like (e.g., Celia Farber or Jennifer Bilek or Amazing Polly) but if they slip up, then I become suspicious. It's always about the issue, not about the person/personality.

There's always the possibility, to be generous, that someone like Farber has become myopic for emotional reasons and emotionally resists thinking logically about the issue.

Hi,

I'm just too drained from posting at Celia Farber's RFK shilling substack, so I'm responding to you here.

On this comment you made: "Why Celia Farber can't see that is baffling."

Well the reason is that she's apparently his "Research assistant"!!! Do you think she should have posted that disclaimer at the top of her shilling for RFK posts??

Here's what dpl over there pointed out: ""The “my brilliant researcher Celia Farber” in the Dismantling The Narrative with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is brilliant comedy for anyone considering that Celia has a none biased approach on this issue"

And another guy, "Allen," who Celia previously banned said this to me on another substack after I updated him about her post that basically accused me and Allison McDowell of "working for someone" be cause we had problems with RFK on a number of issues:

"Many of these people are in fact getting paid by CHD and no doubt more will jump on the gravy train- and then make up the story that others are psyops or are "working for someone." Accuse others of exactly what you are doing- classic propaganda technique. You can't make this stuff up and don't have to. "

So, there you go. Again, I'd respond of over there, but I literally have a headache from dealing with that all day yesterday. I thought I was dealing with an honest broker, who didn't get it, but now it's quite obvious that she's on the payroll and her job is to shill for him or be an "influencer."It's really disgusting IMO.
