Member training from December 8th 2025.

Tonight’s meeting focused on helping us better understand and recognize the long-standing tactic of false or controlled opposition so that we are not deceived, ensnared, or diverted from effective action. We emphasized that controlled opposition is not an exception but a historical rule, used repeatedly by governments and conspiratorial powers to identify dissenters, neutralize real resistance, and steer sincere people into ineffective or counterproductive efforts. Through allegories, scriptural principles, and historical examples—from ancient empires to modern political figures—we were reminded that we must judge not by words, appearances, or media narratives, but by fruits, actions, and outcomes. The purpose of this discussion was to sharpen our discernment, protect our time, resources, and credibility, and help us avoid supporting personalities, movements, or causes that merely appear to oppose tyranny while ultimately serving it.

TRANSCRIPT

Our Father in heaven, we’re here to start our Tree of Liberty Society for this

Monday night. And we’re grateful that we can be here and ask thy guidance to be

with Ben and to be with us. That we may internalize what we hear tonight and apply

it to ourselves.

Father, we ask a special blessing on the technology that all will function exactly

as it ought.

That anybody who

might be logging into the other one will realize it can come over here so they

don’t miss anything.

Father,

please bless each of our individual computers, that they will stay connected and

function properly. We pray now, Father, that that thou would bless us to think of

things that we can do and become aware of those things that we ought to do to be

in the way of truth and spread it to our family and friends.

In the name of Jesus Christ, amen. And I want to mention the book available in the

three different formats. Audio book is only available on the website, but the

paperback and e -book are available both on our website and on Amazon.

that we do have the two options available for membership where we have the 30 days

free. And we have also the, what’s it called the yearly,

the annual membership, which also saves money. So if you’d like to switch your

membership over from a monthly over to annual, it can save you some money there as

well.

So Tonight, we’re going to be talking about the history of false or controlled

opposition. We’ve talked about the principle of controlled opposition,

and we’ll cover it again. We’ll give some new examples that we haven’t covered

before. But I want to show the history of it in the idea of so that we can

better understand it so that we can better identify it. We can better warn others

about it. We can better avoid it ourselves so we don’t fall for those traps.

And so that’s really the push of tonight is to be able to better avoid being

ensnared by the trap of false and controlled opposition and the different effects

that it has on us. also making sure that we are doing everything we can during the

week to increase our knowledge and that everything that we do is for the purpose of

understanding and adhering to the principles that have built free nations to expose

the satanic conspiracy that we face and of course build an effective resistance to

that conspiracy. Hey Ben. Yeah, go ahead. I’m sorry, some people in the chat are

saying that they cannot see the screen i wanted to tell everybody um at the top of

your screen there should be a view button i think bro i think ben pointed that out

earlier if you click on that you may have the option of presentation um see if you

can click on that and see if it will show you the powerpoint

and then speak up or chat again please is it not showing is it showing to you um

okay so i’m the one that that said something um i clicked on view

it um rod yeah it looks perfectly flat on my end i see your powerpoint okay maybe

i’ll just exit and come back in then okay anybody else having an issue

doesn’t seem like it so i’m going to x there i’ll come back in okay okay mark do

you see it i yes i do the volume is lower but but i can still hear you but it’s

a volume is lower okay um i’m going to go over okay that all my volume should be

good i

just adjusted a little bit and we’ll see make sure that doesn’t i don’t want it to

redline and give distortion but that’s much better thank you oh good Okay,

that looks like it’s redlining on my thing, though. So anyways, okay, well, let’s

get back to what we’re covering tonight.

And there’s, there’s, of course, additional purposes behind false or controlled

opposition. But these are the two angles that I’m going to be focusing on tonight.

And the first one is too, so that the conspiracy can identify who is opposing them.

That’s one of the reasons why they create.

and they’re going to tell us what we want to hear. So often, you know, we,

you come across a certain demographic of people that just assume that no one would

ever lie to them, that, you know, unless there’s something that, you know, unless

they’ve got like a twirly, you know, super villain mustache or they’re a raging

Democrat, you know, liberal communists. But If they say that they’re for liberty, if

they say they’re for doing something that we agree with, all of a sudden our guard

goes down and we trust everything that they say. And so we really have to start to

put our guard up and say, okay, you know, I like what he’s saying. Let me dig a

little bit further because I know that people are going to try to lie to me.

They’re going to tell me something that they think I want to hear so that I

believe them and that I follow with their

allegories that I want to share with you that will illustrate the principle. These

aren’t, of course, historical situations that I’m going to share with you. But they

are allegories. They are stories that help us to better understand the principle

because it’s done in such a obvious way to get over the subtletiness of it,

the subtleness of it. And so that we can say okay now i get it so i’m going to

play this uh short clip from the song of the south on brer rabbit hi blue rabbit

get away uncle remus who say he get away bear rabbit always gets away don’t you be

too sure and i don’t told you that bear rabbit being little without much strength

he’s supposed to use his head instead of his books did he join me now who’s

telling this yet you you are then you just said to do the listening well sir that

he was sitting in the middle of the road just like you sitting in that chair only

he’s all mixed up with that tall baby and it sure looked like the end of the

finish for poor little real rabbit cause old brook was fixed a barbecue for dinner

right then and that yes sir yes sir Just in a minute now, won’t be wrong now.

Didn’t want to be ready in a minute now. All you have to do is put a few more

sticks on the fire. It’s fire going good. Oh, excuse me, you just want to stay

finished, right? We ain’t want to take no excuses now. We just love to have you

for dinner.

Wouldn’t we just love to have him for dinner, blah, bad? Ain’t that just what

you’ve been saying? No, sir.

What I said was, I’m going to knock his head clean.

I know that right the back of my little head. That’s what we’re going to do?

What’s that?

I’m going to knock his head. Go ahead, brother, man.

Come on. Knock my head, please.

But he must hear that. Yes, sir. But please don’t fling me in that private.

Now again, you keep out there. Take on your business. Leave I’ll hang it. That’s

it. I’ll hang you by the neck till he’s dead.

Hang me if you like, Brother Fox, so. Go ahead. But don’t fling me in that right,

pants. Well, I got no room for hanging, so I spay it. I speck how I have to skin

ya. Yeah, sure. What’s that? I said I’m going to skin you.

Skin Skinner. Oh yeah. Go ahead. Yes, sir. Skip a delight, Brother Fox.

But there’s one thing I don’t want you to do. What’s that? Brother Fox,

I mean, what about you? What are you? Please, brother Fox,

please don’t freak me. Uh,

briar pants? Uh… Rye pants? Bire Patch?

Blapet! Black Pat! I’m glad I thought that, yes indeed, I’m glad I thought of that.

But you ain’t gonna bring me in there, is ya? Me? Oh, no, we’ll do that.

No, sir. We would do that.

We would do that, Mama Papa. But he uh… We’re gonna take grand this child in

there. No, uh Charlie! No, he’ll knock his head clean.

Oh no, me. Oh, no, me. What you said, but… …you said, but…

…you… …and…

Waigo! No!

Yes, sir, Brother Fox. I was moaning, Fred, and proud,

Patrick. Yes,

I was falling, Fred, and Frye your back.

Falling, Fred, and Cry your back. So now, as Braille Fox is turning to feel humble

come tumble. But old Brent man, he don’t say nothing. And Bradford Fox,

he laid low.

Mighty low, show it up. That’s another one I can read one.

Okay, so that really, you know, from this cartoon, kid, you know, telling a story,

it teaches us a valuable lesson that too many of us in the Liberty Battle,

don’t grasp and don’t see where you have the conspiracy where they set up a group

of people to say, oh, no, you better, don’t elect that guy. That guy’s a danger to

us. He’s anti -establishment. He’s against what we’re doing. Don’t vote for him.

That’s the worst thing you could do. And so they believe they have all these

different people that, you know, they’ll attack somebody that’s, you know, either in

power or in media and they’ll say, oh, that guy, you know, he’s, he’s a real

threat to us. We hate him. And then, and people say, well, look at all of the

people that I disagree with and they hate him. That must mean that guy’s a good

guy. But what are we doing? We’re following for the, falling for the same trick

that we learn about here. We say, oh, they don’t like them, they must be good.

Instead of actually looking at the bigger picture, looking beyond the obvious, looking

at, you know, beyond what’s on the surface level, that not only people that are

trying to trick us to think that they’re our friend, but people that trick us to

think that their friend is actually their enemy. And so we see that same thing with

the Trojan horse, where you have these people that have been fighting,

P..

tricked by, you know, the flattering ear, and they bring this enemy into their,

you know, into their proverbial gates. And now we’ve let the enemy in thinking that

they were our friend. And so these are, these are allegories. These are important

principles. These are that we can, that we need to learn. I think that’s why you

really don’t see these things taught, you know, in government schools. We don’t,

we don’t learn allegories anymore that and if we do they are saying that they’re

you know teaching the wrong their opposite lesson than they’re actually teaching um

and and so these help us understand greater issues but let’s get into specifics um

and how you know we judge in the scriptures the savior taught us that we are to

beware of false prophets which come to you in sheep’s clothing or Trojan horse

clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. You shall know them by their fruits.

Do men gather grapes of thorns or figs of fissals? Okay,

so he doesn’t say judge them by their nice words, doesn’t say judge them by the,

you know, by the speeches that they give or the things that they are claiming. He

says, no, judge them by the things that they’re producing,

judge them by the things that they’re doing, what is it that their actions and

their words are producing as opposed to, oh, I like what he said. It made me feel

good. Or it was nice, you know, it was flattering. We need to learn that lesson.

They are ravening wolves that when we just judge them by their words, really what

they probably are are ravening wolves.

And so as to be able to do this, as Vladimir Lenin said,

he says, the best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves. So I gave

our boot camp presentation a couple of weeks ago in Utah County. And I brought this

point up, right? And this, a few people were like, oh my goodness, why would you,

why would you create a group that oppose yourself, that opposes you and your agenda?

Otherwise, why would they call themselves monarchists? So they must be on my side

because I’m against the Bolshevik revolution. I like the old czar. And so these guys

must be on my side because they said they are. And it was led by one of the czar

government officials, gave the movement credibility. And it continued on,

you know, with the perception in the mind of the people or the public that this

organization was truly anti -Bolshevik because it had a member of the previous regime

as the leader of this organization. And it gave credibility to them.

But then it was co -opted. He was there. He was sent there by the Bolsheviks to

make sure that other anti -communist organizations that we’re ineffective.

So they would draw, because this was getting support from the government, not

knowingly, not openly, of course, but it was gaining support. And so it was kind of

propped up. People have heard of this organization. They knew about it. And so it

drew those people to it to make sure that they were not effective in their anti

-communist efforts. And another thing that it did was it also identified supporters of

the monarchy so that they could get rid of them. And the people were convinced,

most importantly, not to engage in violent acts against the Soviets because they

convinced them that a plan was underway within the government that would topple the

regime from within, right? They were told by their leaders like Alexander Yukeshv

that don’t worry about it. We’ve got, you know, trust this plan.

material afterwards or you know to help support the the program and the agenda is

that oh mark go ahead yes i don’t know why they had to pretend to be monarchs

when they were already pretending to be a republic that’s in their name the uh what

is it soviet union republic the Republic. These people were pretending to be

supporters of the czarist regime, the monarchists before the Soviet Republic. Right,

but the Republic is supposed to be a good thing. Right. And they weren’t any

republic in any fashion. Right. Yeah. So one related point on this really,

I think, important. Stalin, you know, one of the greatest murders of all in the

history of mankind, was asked reportedly, how were you able to conquer all these

nations, you know, after World War II and during World War, before World War II,

including Red China and so forth. Why was the Communist Revolution so successful?

He cited three reasons, and two of them were deception. One was outright deception,

he said, and the other one was treachery. Well, treachery is just a betrayal of the

people that are put in power. They’ve betrayed the people. And so wherever you look,

you see deception by these people. And the point you made about trusting them,

we’ve got to look and see their character and not just briefly,

but go to their entire history, but I won’t belay to the point anymore.

But deception is their middle name. Absolutely. Thank you,

Mark. So I want to get into another, I’m going to give you an example of false

opposition, creating false opposition. We have the case of Alger Hiss versus Richard

Nixon. So I think most of us have heard of Richard Nixon, but maybe some of us

haven’t heard of Alger Hiss. I want to give you a little bit.

network in the 30s and had passed information to him. So you have this guy, right,

he’s the editor for a major magazine, especially at the time,

huge magazine in the 40s, of course, saying that, you know, I was a communist and

this guy over here, Alger Hiss, who’s at the State Department, he’s a communist too.

And so what was the reaction of most people people at the time. Most of the

establishment especially said that these accusations were unbelievable and they promoted

that in the media. Hiss was a polished and he was an elite and he was well

connected. But Chambers himself was not very well presented. He was nervous and he

was easy, he was somebody that was easy to dismiss and many assumed that Hiss was

actually innocent of the accusations. And so then Richard Nixon was a brand new

congressman from California, a junior member of the committee, and he took Chambers’

allegations supposedly, right, seriously, when others didn’t. So his assignment was to

treat Whitaker Chambers’

accusations against his seriously. Nixon’s persistence then kept the case alive.

And senior members of the committee wanted to drop the matter. And he, which,

because they, their, their view was that Chambers was unreliable.

But Nixon, uh, furthered the investigation and questioned both his and chambers.

This is a part of the public hearings. This is what everybody saw. This wasn’t like

behind the scenes and he was actually doing this. This was the public perception,

the program, the character that was being created for the public.

Nixon then managed to uncover contradictions in his testimony,

particularly about, or he brought to light those contradictions, particularly whether

he knew Chambers under another name, which was George Crosley. Nixon uncovered the

pumpkin papers.

seen as the man who exposed a communist spy in high government office. And it was

a time when many Americans feared communist infiltrators in government. The exposing

hiss made Nixon look like a vigilante, a defender of national, a vigilant,

not a vigilant, vigilant defender of national security. And Nixon appeared to stand

up against the Eastern establishment. The establishment was saying, oh, there’s nothing

to this, his stuff. Let’s ignore it unless you’re a, you know, a wacko, but Nixon

is standing up against the Eastern establishment.

And so much of those establishment defended his. And then Nixon,

as an outsider, was praised, a supposed outsider, was praised for not being

intimidated by that social pressure, right? He’s really standing up against the

elites. And this built his image as someone is willing to challenge the establishment

in defense of the country against the communists. So there were this character that

they were building that he was saying, you know, I am going to dig no matter what

the establishment says and we’re going to expose these communists and I’m an anti

-communist.

But the real Nixon paints a different picture that this was just a character that

was created. So in 1961. He is there at the Bohemian Grove with George Martin and

Herbert Hoover. There’s other pictures of him with Ronald Reagan. So he is the

establishment. He is not anti -establishment. This is before he’s even president,

right? And this is, he is a part of the conspiracy and the conspiracy network.

He attended the Bohemian Grove several times. In 1971 as president, he abandoned the

gold standard. He increased the power of the international monetary fund, gave them

authority to intervene in currency markets, stabilizing or destabilizing nations,

depending on that nation’s cooperation with the conspiracy.

Nixon increased involvement of the United States with the United Nations. He mandated

wage and price controls, which is obviously You know,

Basically, more than any other Americans, lost the Vietnam War intentionally. One of

the major ways he did that is when the Americans, we were winning the war because

we had prevented the Soviets, the Russians, and the Red Chinese,

from bringing in weapons to Haiphon Harbor. Then they put a boycott,

not a boycott embargo on it and not allowed any of those ships in and the u .s

was winning the war and then he with no explanation at all they’ve removed that

embargo so the communists could bring the weapons in and which eventually led to the

loss of war and and and also chikessinger did several other things to aid and dead

the communists so I think that’s about as important as all the other list items on

your list there. Thank you. Rod, go ahead. Yeah, along the same lines as Mark,

I was just going to point out, number one, it was Kissinger. When he’s in the

State Department, one of the things he was doing was they mandated that none of our

soldiers in Vietnam could fight back. Even when they were under attack, they couldn’t

return fire until they had permission directly from the State Department. So they had

to call them and speak to somebody. And it would take so long that they weren’t

ever able to return fire on people. At a certain point, at that turning point that

Mark was talking about, where they decided they were going to make us lose. And the

other thing is that, yeah, he was pretending here to fight communism again here in

Vietnam. And then you’re looking at 1972, so you’re right at the end of the Vietnam

War.

You couldn’t follow the enemy across borders. They had certain sanctuary locations,

and so if they ran into the sanctuary areas, you can’t follow them in. There were

many rules of engagement to lose the war. But one of the most important things

about Nixon, he was a member of the treasonous counsel on foreign relations.

They are openly, say America must be to all nations must be abolished. Thank you.

Brittany.

I was just curious, like, what was the reason that the media said that he was even

going to China in the first place?

Basically, just to bring peace to the world and to, you know, it was. It’s like

the United Nations mumbo -jumbo. We’ve got to, that this, you know, being peaceful

and being friends with the communist will actually be more effective than in getting

rid of them, you know, opening up trade with them, we’ll get them rich, and then

they’ll want to not, they’ll want to be capitalists of communists. And so that’s,

you had all that kind of, all that kind of. Got it. I’m just curious. Yep. Micah.

I just wanted to lay on the, on the Vietnam thing because it’s fashionable all of

a sudden. Also, some of the rules they had was you couldn’t,

they prohibited any of,

anyway, the administration prohibited any of any of the Air Force or other airplanes,

U .S. planes from attacking any anti -air defenses, and then also said that they

couldn’t engage any planes enemy planes until they could physically see them which at

that time the whole air force had been basically turned over to missiles and they

weren’t set up for direct engagements so everything was set up to just like blow up

planes out of the sky before you could even see them so they basically made it so

they couldn’t attack any planes And then they also, the rule was plain.

time and whenever they wanted and the planes were not allowed to attack them cool

okay yeah lots and lots of things that nixon did that was against the character

that was created for him um additionally he was sold as anti -establishment right a

staunch anti -communist but his record was expanding the new word order and propping

up communist James. So I really highly recommend this book, The Man Behind the Mask

by Gary Allen. Gary Allen was the author of the book Nundare Collet conspiracy.

He really understands this whole scenario. So there’s lots of things that we’ve

talked about. Other things that

we did not cover that is in this book. And so if you can grab a copy of it,

I encourage you to do so because What we see right now is a resurgence.

There’s been a lot of amongst these controlled, so -called conservative organizations

is a resurrection or I don’t know what you call it a saving of Nixon’s image where

you have a lot of information coming out now that is trying to say that, oh, all

the impeachment stuff against Nixon was set up by the CIA because he was anti

-establishment again painting that picture ignoring all of the pro establishment stuff

that he did all of the you know the part of the fact that he was a part of the

bohemian grove cf all that kind of stuff and so it’s important for us to be able

to understand because if we are fooled by these people trying to resurrect old um

you know personalities we’re going to be fooled into them propping up new

personalities. So I want to go over some historical controlled opposition.

There is a program by the FBI called Operation Countel Pro,

Counterintelligence Program. And what it did was it neutralized opposition to the

government by putting people into these organizations that were against what the

government was doing. They sowed internal conflict in the organization. They spread

this information with

normally do if these infiltrators hadn’t joined their group.

Let me go back.

A really good example of them doing that was with the Ku Klux Klan. Not to say

the Klukex Klan was any good, but the Klan was dying out. We’re talking about 60,

70 years ago. It was not really to disappear. So their members join the clan and

it was an old joke if you’re ever at a Ku Klux Klan meeting and somebody sneezes

it’s probably an FBI agent. Same thing nowadays with like militia groups.

Yeah. So they were full of membership. They would have died out if it wasn’t for

the FBI joining the Ku Klux Klan. Yeah.

Then we have in the National Socialist Germany, the green border, this is during the

30s and 40s. So not 130s. I missed the 9. It’s the 1930s.

It was a German intelligence that was created, they’ve created fake underground

networks in these occupied territories. And then what they did was they lured

resistance fighters and they arrested them. And then we have front groups and from

the from communist germany in the 1950s all the way to 1989 and what they did was

they created fake dissident groups and fake church groups to make sure they they

would monitor people they would identify dissidents and then steer again steer

activities to things that would not actually threaten the government so they not only

is this to identify people but to make sure that everybody that is involved in this

program is doing things that is ineffective.

Then we have the Committee of Union and Progress, the Ottoman Empire in the early

1900s. The Young Turks were created or they co -opted opposition groups to control

and neutralize opposition, right? So they didn’t just create groups to draw people

away from other groups, but then they would also send their members into these other

organizations to make sure that those other

And under Tiberius, Nero, and Demetian, they created movements of Senate opposition

circles to direct ineffective actions and identify opposition.

And then you have the false friends in Persia during the 500s. This is BC,

so even before the Roman group, so this is over 2 ,000 years ago.

And in Persia, what they did was they created, again, fake dissident groups to

direct ineffective opposition actions and then find out when revolts might happen. So

they could make sure and do something about it.

And then we have the Ptolemic, which was Egypt’s loyal opposition priesthoods.

This is 300 to 100 BC. And they supported priestly factions critical of their policy

to give them the appearance of independence and finance them to draw support away

from real opposition groups.

The black hundreds in the Russian Empire in the 1900s, these groups were funded by

the monarchy to give citizens a place to go and vent but not do anything against

the regime. Then you have the Patriotic Societies of Louis and Philip in France in

the 1800s, and they created to mimic reform movements,

but were designed to split the opposition, to make sure that there was no strong

opposition. The absorbed opposition groups, and so when they would, you know,

when they did kind of conglomerate things, it was into ineffective action because it

was by a group they controlled. They got support for fake reforms that did actually

nothing to challenge the government,

We actually saw this with the Tea Party groups specifically. In the state of Utah,

Orrin Hatch hired the head of the Tea Party group to be on his staff.

So now, A, you know, he’s on, he’s co -opted completely because he is on,

he’s not going to do anything. And he’s going to endorse, you know, Orrin Hatch as

a Tea Party party candidate and he’s going to make sure that uh anybody that thinks

that the tea party groups are still uh independent are listening to him and are

supporting uh establishment types like your oran hatches

and then we see here so this is the the bottom line that is that control

opposition is not the exception to the rule so So when we talk about controlled

opposition, this is not just like, oh, there’s a one -off over there. No, controlled

opposition is the rule. And, you know, I gave several pages of examples,

but I could have given, you know, numberless pages of examples of governments and

the conspiracy and when they use this tactic.

it is the rule, not the exception. Also, what we’ve done tonight is we’ve exposed

the lie that real resistance just dustifies government tyranny. We’ll see that all

the time. You’ll have controlled opposition individuals that will say, oh, we can’t

do anything because if we actually resist, that’s just going to give the government

excuse to increase their tyranny because the fact is, is if you don’t do it,

what are they going to do? They’re going to create groups that will do it, and

then they’re going to blame you for doing it. Or they’re going to trick your

members into doing it. And so, you know, whether you do it or you don’t do it, it

doesn’t matter because they’re going to blame you for doing it.

And also, the conspiracy, I’m going to ask the question, ask ourselves, is the

conspiracy going to allow real opposition groups to be mainstream? Are they going to

allow those kind of groups?

right there attacking is advertising you are not going to hear about real opposition

groups on controlled media they don’t want you to know about them and if they so

we that tells us that if a personality is talked about by conspiracy controlled

media they are controlled opposition okay so uh Those are some principles that are

important for us to understand. We see how the conspiracy works and we see the

examples over and over again. These aren’t just one -offs. These aren’t exceptions to

the rules. This is how the conspiracy operates. And the more that we understand

that, the better we will be at identifying it, not being fooled by it and help

others not to be fooled by it. And in turn, that will save us money because we’re

not donating. We’re not supporting causes. We’re not buying socks and calendars and

videos from fake groups. We’re not sending checks to support fake candidates that are

actually a part of the conspiracy, right? We’re not, we’re saving time because we’re

not volunteering for these groups. And we’re saving our credibility once these people

are exposed. And so these are very important principles to understand. And so I hope

that we will really start to, as we’ve gone over, these different principles of

false opposition, these ideas will start to stick with us. And we’ll start to better

say, okay, two and two equals four. I can connect these dots. I can do the right

thing. I can help others do the right thing. So we are out of time. We’ll answer

questions and have specific comments in the open forum again but let’s go ahead and

have a closing prayer and rod would you do it would you give us that closing

prayer absolutely heavenly father we are grateful for the discussion that we’ve had

tonight this lesson and all the things that we’re able to learn tonight and we ask

you to help us to avoid the deceptions that are all around us and to do what we

can to bring the hidden things of darkness to light go with us now and help us to

find ways to do better
