Another salute to the Sucker Filter.
I've said this before and I'll say it again.
The SUCKER FILTER is the most important clarifier in all of history. Nothing else comes close.
I never figured it out on my own. I wish to hell I'd read about it much earlier.
It didn't enter public discussion until 2012.
Back in '69, I was already noticing the perfect openness of Deepstate's stings and agent provocateurs. Drug salesmen were openly known as Fed narks, yet they continued selling and narking. Activist groups were infiltrated by agents who openly identified themselves as "former CIA".
I didn't understand why they were so obvious. I just assumed they weren't very good at their jobs. Surely they didn't realize that we knew about them? If they realized, they'd be more secret? No, they were doing their jobs perfectly, and I was a perfect sucker.
The sucker filter is simply
more efficient than secrets.
When evil is concealed, the group pulls in loyal suckers PLUS people who will soon realize what's happening. Result: internal dissension, disgruntled whistleblowers, lawsuits.
When evil is open, the best servants of evil join forces and work hard. There are
no counterforces within either of the "opposing" "teams". No internal friction, no error correction, no negative feedback. Each "team" consists solely of loyal enthusiastic mindless warriorbots, working diligently to kill the non-participants.
