Would you agree that this video from Matt Orfalea provides good circumstantial evidence that Project Mockingbird or its descendant is thriving? Specifically. being able to assemble a large cadre of public-speaking liars on a foreign policy issue, suggests something more than coincidence is at work.

I haven't seen this video. I'll watch it in a few - thanks for this. But yes, regardless of whether the official program itself is still around or was only disbanded in name and still operates clandestinely, the techniques themselves are still being utilized. That's what I was covering in this article - regardless of whether anyone is copping to the program itself still being in play, the data points over time show that the tactics are clearly still in play and have already had such a powerful influence over the interplay among these individuals and entities that it would be very difficult to remove the ideas and practices from the stage. The only solution that would be impactful enough to counter this would be a widespread focus upon media literacy education. But good luck funding that when money can be made by keeping people in the dark about those techniques and how they work.
