Post Uncle Zook -- busted!
I'm starting this thread due to its importance. Uncle Zook has been a moderator at Avalon, Nexus, and Universal Spectrum. He was well respected by many, including me early on. Some people were practically gushing over him in admiration and praise. In fact, you could say he was following in Bill Ryan's or Atticus' footsteps when it comes to cleverly deceiving the masses. And that's why this thread is important. There are gatekeepers out there that serve the Powers-That-Be. Those gatekeepers are likable, charming, erudite, clever, and persuasive. We fall for their arguments easily, but those arguments are wrong. They are designed to lead us into a particular pattern of thinking that does not serve our own best interests, but instead serves the interests of those that victimize us.

The other reason for starting this thread is to see if I might be wrong. Maybe Zook is not a deliberate gatekeeper, but an unwitting one. Peer review of the evidence should be able to shed light on that possibility. I would like to believe that Zook was not deliberately fooling us, but comfort and truth are often inversely related, and being a non-sociopath, I know that allowing my empathy to give sociopaths the benefit of the doubt is one of my weaknesses in dealing with them.

Among the red flags that point to Zook's deception are these:

  • His self-aggrandisement and self-praise
  • His dismissal and denigration of his critics
  • His praise and rewarding support for his allies
  • His shallow research disguised as thorough research
  • His attacking the messenger instead of the message
  • His ad hominem attacks
  • His straw man arguments
  • His copy-cat, turn-about tactics
  • His ignoring direct and pertinent questions
  • His literary obfuscation (using fancy language to say very little)
  • His certainty

So I will be assembling the evidence against Zook here, pulling together the posts spread across many threads that provided the convincing evidence that helped those of us that were involved with them in real time to see the "truth", that Zook was gatekeeping. Without a guided tour of these events, very few would be willing to invest the time and energy to uncover the truth. And who could blame them? Gatekeepers rely on this fact to cover their tracks and remain undetected. Although Atticus eventually fell, Bill Ryan is still running his Avalon scam and getting away with it. Current Avalon members are still fawning all over Bill Ryan, including some members that should know better. For example, here is Modwiz being chastized by Bill Ryan and sucking up to him big-time, knowing that he might suffer the Bill Ryan ban hammer if he doesn't toe the line. That just adds credibility to Bill Ryan and allows the Avalon scam to continue merrily along its way. And that is what we are trying to stop, only in this case, we are trying to stop the Uncle Zook scam.

There appears to be a long line. I guess I will have to wait....

It's hard to imagine, but we all need to be "busted". You can't break out of your mental prison until someone shows you the flaws of the construct.

Check this out. The synchronicity of it has my mind reeling.

I won't give "the Zook" the same benefit of the doubt that you do, his timely disappearance and refusal to address any of this further proves his true motives.

I look forward to your future posts, the evidence documented here needs to be examined!

Why is Zook so busted?

Exhibit A. Zook makes false claims about Lendman's 9/11 views. When caught, he claims he mixed up Lendman with Howard Zinn.

Exhibit B. Zook makes false claims about Howard Zinn's 9/11 views. Busted again.

Exhibit C. As usual, Zook reflects everything back on his accusers. Now he claims Chicodoodoo is busted. (Yawn)

Exhibit D. Zook tries to use a controlled-opposition, pro-GMO front to "prove" his Proposition 37 claims. This is his BIG mistake.

Exhibit E. Zook now resorts to emotional attacks, because he's out of ammo with his pants around his ankles and no way to run -- nothing left to do but talk trash.

Exhibit F. Zook tries to rewrite UP history (regarding Truthunter) to make Chico look bad. Chico produces the actual posts to prove Zook is lying. Busted, busted, busted.

There's lots more to come...

Zook goes quiet at UP for a solid week. After all, he's been severely busted, and paddled so bad he can hardly sit down. He's not used to that. He's used to sitting comfortably on his high horse and condemning the peasants for poor discernment. So what does Zook do during his "quiet time"? He runs back to Nexus, to the King and Queen he served so loyally, where he almost wouldn't leave when all the other moderators were jumping ship at Nexus due to the Tyrant Richard's behind-the-scenes ultimatums (that's what spawned Universal Spectrum). But Zook had to leave Nexus to save face, given all his public BS about Nexus being planar, a forum of equals, but now faced with King Richard saying for the umpteenth time, "My way or the highway!" And wouldn't you know it (this is almost unbelievable), after Zook's embarrassing exposure at UP for being a gatekeeper, he retreats back to Nexus to the Members-Only area where, unseen by the public, he can begin the very same gatekeeping activities that he was busted for at United People!

You can't make this stuff up.

Well, Zook came back today. He comes out swinging, mad as Hell, tall on his high horse condemning Andywight and Chicodoodoo for poor discernment! He butters up Magamud for future points, catapults Andy amid all the sickly insults only Zook can muster, and still has time to "prove" Chico is a psychopath. Gotta love that legerdemain style of proof, Zook, the guilt by association argument. Weren't you busted for that here, too? Several times? No matter, we'll get that Exhibit on the list. And then, Zook plays his usual ace-up-the-sleeve card, showing that Chico is no truth-seeker, because Chico won't condemn Julian Assange when the proof is on the table here (that's Zook's ace, proudly thrown down like a gauntlet before the duel).

Zook, you don't even see it coming, do you. Just like last time. You are so busted, and you don't even know it.

Wait for it... :lol:

Time for your next paddlin', Zook.

You are such a glutton for punishment.

Here is Zook's latest "proof" against Julian Assange. Unlike Zook, I don't have a pronounced bias for or against Assange, so I actually read the article. After all, should it show Assange to be a gatekeeper, and it's the truth, then I'm delighted with that. But unlike Zook, I want to be sure it's the truth.

The first thing that catches my eye is this:

Gordon Duff wrote:
I know heroes, I work with them daily, Veterans Today has many on its staff who have sacrificed their futures, their safety and several, their lives, putting out hard truths that aren’t filtered by the rich and powerful.

This is basically saying "I am credible, highly credible! Do not doubt my word!" I've heard this too many times from Zook to fall for that. Further down, I read this:

Gordon Duff wrote:
Assange, an intelligence asset of Israel, as Zbigniew Brzezinski pointed out on December 2, 2010 on National Public Radio in an interview with Judy Woodruff

Alarm bells went off! Using Brzezinski to discredit Assange is such blatant hypocrisy that it calls the whole article into question.

So I decided to do a little research. There are other articles by Gordon Duff critical of Julian Assange. This one condemns Wikileaks for what it DOESN'T say! I almost mistook it for a Mad Magazine spoof.

This one makes all kinds of accusations against Assange, and then has the hypocrisy to say, "Assange, we know nothing of him other than the rumors and myths, now all brought into serious question." Or is that clever satire (as in the rumors and myths being brought into serious question instead of Assange)?

Both of those Gordon Duff articles are from two years ago. Zook's article is more recent, from a couple of months ago, but it makes the same accusations, almost as if they have been newly discovered.

But, here's the kicker.

Remember our first quote from Duff, claiming his organization is "putting out hard truths that aren’t filtered by the rich and powerful"? The following article is from a few weeks ago. It appears that Gordon Duff recently admitted to putting out information that is basically filtered by the rich and powerful.

"Gordon Duff of Veterans Today Admits To Writing 40% False Information"

That's right, Zook. Just like the GMO Compass website you held up as proof, Gordon Duff is in the propaganda business. Hey, just like you!

Read the comments there. The video has already been pulled, meaning censored. But you can hear the audio of the interview here. Note Jim Fetzer's comment on that page. I thought you'd like that, considering he's on your long gatekeeper list.

It seems Gordon Duff has been busted.

Gordon Duff is good company for UncleZook. That's because, for the umpteenth time, Zook is SO BUSTED. Image

Weak.

Pax Chico

ps: Seriously, howling like a monkey over such anemic "exhibits" just makes you look more delusional than you are, Chico.
