James Corbett comes close but his time is primarily allocated to zoomed-out big-picture research, so there's many important pieces that barely even make it onto his radar.
There's gotta be at least one other person out there somewhere with similar abilities but more time (eg, someone retired, financially secure and no wife & kids to deal with).
What you are describing sounds a lot like Cass Sunsteins proposals as outlined in his 2008 paper ‘Conspiracy Theories: Their Cause and Cure’ in which he suggested that government infiltrate conspiracy theories in order to steer them into supporting the actions of government.
Shortly afterwards, Sunstein was appointed to the UK governments Behavioural Insights Team (Behavioural manipulation. This team was largely responsible for their overt manipulation via their Spi-B branch relating to the drumming up of pandemic fear, lockdown compliance and vaccine uptake). At the same time he was appointed to some US Government consultancy role too.
In the documentary Hypernormalisation, there is a section on the methods the Russian government used to befuddle its population and how those same tactics were now in use in the UK and other western countries like USA. Although the documentary itself, being made by the BBC, is also deceptive and misleading it nevertheless has some enlightening moments. Anyway, Putin employed a theatre producer called Vladislav Surkov who funded and arranged both pro-government and anti-government protestors in a big theatrical display and then let it be known (methods unknown/undisclised) that that’s what they were doing so that the Russian people couldn’t tell what was fake and what was real.
In a striking parallel, Trump appointed Hollywood producer Steve Mnuchin to his cabinet and during the Trump administration we saw all these similarly choreographed anti and pro government protests such as BLM, proud boys, Qanon, Jan 6 etc and the entire narrative took on a distinctly fake, WWE-type feel with the media feeding the narratives continuously, in addition to the usual fake fayre such as shootings, assassination attempts et al
We have similar in the UK with news items like Sarah Everard and resultant ‘Reclaim these Streets!’ pop-up protests, Lucy Letby and the more recent riots of ‘far right thugs’ and Muslims as well as other assorted atrocity propaganda. Each side having their appointed spokespersons like GB News, Tommy Robinson, Neil Oliver, Russell Brand, Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson, Candace Owens. The cast list is long.
Of course, then there is the deliberately directed resurgence of Christianity and Christ is King mob who want Christian nationalism and the like - anything so long as people maintain their belief that the Jewish Messiah who is the same figure as the ‘Lord God of Israel’ is actually their own ‘Lord and saviour’ and that the Jews were god’s chosen people and responsible for the civilisation and glorification of Europe with their “values” etc. Quickened as a response to the force feeding of LGBTQ and other Diversity agendas and the Islamic takeover - both of which, surprise surprise, are also Jewish ideological inventions.
It’s all designed to keep people off guard and it can be incredibly self-perpetuating, with false beliefs and false solutions taking root in peoples minds like a virus and spreading in the same manner, instigated by disinformation Typhoid Mary’s like the mainstream and alternative media’s in cahoots with all manner of people - including our respective militaries who make a study of psychological warfare and have entire brigades dedicated to waging it on domestic audiences.
The angles I think about are the ones no one talks about, no one sees, no one even seems to suspect. I've been meaning to write up big posts on some of these, but as I alluded to in first comment, there are only a handful on the same wavelength to receive them.
Take, for example, the book "Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon" by Dave McGowan which has rightly become legendary. Essentially, the book was about the children of the MIC pumping out programming through your local FM station, right? It has gotten so much worse since then.
I stumbled onto the fact that the same "money guy" was behind Napster, Facebook, and Spotify. I realized that "They" had clandestinely changed the entire media landscape and installed a stranglehold on society's listening habits (and we know it's all about habits).
So we've gone from rock bands with suspicious origins to completely manufactured acts and songs. We've gone from a handful of talk radio shows to hundreds of "independent" podcasts either infiltrated or constructed from scratch as psyops. All this gets pumped out through Spotify and Apple, where they know exactly what you're listening to and when. You used to turn the dial yourself, but now their "algos" put each of us in our own personalized Skinner Box.
There's a level of conspiracy beyond the one where "conspiracy theorists" operate, and getting them to realize that is exactly and precisely the same as convincing normies that conspiracies exist. So, you know, that's why I haven't got around to posting about this yet... lol
Then you would have to contend with the fact that, if you did make such a post, it might be forum slid into oblivion or deliberately deprived of engagement.
There’s also the fact that this very site in which you would be making this post is already a Skinners Box.
If media of all types is in the grip of such a stranglehold and subject to algorithmic siloes then what chance is there?
I would recommend creating your own substack maybe, if the fruits of your labour would take a lot of effort and editing. That way it wouldn’t be lost down the back of the Conspiracy consumers armchair!
You should do it anyway - even if only for your own sake as it would help clarify and solidify your own understanding and connections.
I agree that there is a much bigger picture afoot, Anne much more subtle and devious and longer term tricks in play
