PM to Hondo

I can remember a number of issues where after engaging with Hondo and coming to some sort of agreement or understanding he then inevitably reverted to using the original talking point/lie. He'd then shamelessly deny the original interaction or ignore it.

He's either a paid schill or clinical or shamelessly partisan. Pick your choice. His whole point here is to distract, muddy the waters, and PREVENT real dialog.

If I wanted to spend time arguing with this disingenuous type I can do so on Facebook all day. While I really do admire the free speech sentiment I'll also exercise my vote with my feet(clicks).

I get it, you don't want an echo chamber, you want a punching bag, etc. Don't let that ruin what is also a space that is as you put it "dialed in" and a source for many of us to cut through the informational quagmire the Left has created by design. Their whole intent is to create confusion, doubt, and the inability of opposition to organize in a meaningful manner.

This space is one of very few niches on the internet where I can come and find a receptive audience for Austrian economic concepts and don't have to fend off 5g Russian disinfo agents(RIP @oregonblitzkrieg). In that, it has its own value.

During the time he was banned, Hondo continued reading the boards and periodically sending me emails about stuff on the boards. He wasn't angling to get back on the boards. So this led me to believe that he was not a paid shill. I have deeper suspicions about Mello being a paid shill.

This board seems like a strange place to be paid to be a leftard troll. There are no undecided voters here. Not a target rich environment. There are a few soft minds, but snow didn't vote for Biden because of hondo, mello or OBK. Hondo and mello are dumber than a bag of hammers and OBK was getting his stuff through some website or email group. Now OBK either had a weird all consuming hobby or was getting paid. I'm open on that one, but the Occam's razor would say he was just weird.

Lurkers abound and as stated, it's not about changing hearts and minds, it's about causing chaos and preventing organization. Ironically, I learned about all kinds of hilarious FBI and CIA psyops from my Liberal UW teachers back when the Left distrusted the deep state.

Seems like Honda has had his freedom of speech taken away from him.
