I'm trying to think of a word that means a backslapper who
targets other backslappers. Maybe "back-backslapper" or
"backslapperslapper" or perhaps "super-backslapper" (I
don't remember that comic book!); how do they sound?... I'm sure I can think of
something better. The reason I bring this up is because I recently attended
Richard D Hall's "Home for Lewis" tour and wrote a review. It is only
on HPANWO Free because its content is not suitable for HPANWO Voice, see:

During the event Richard very briefly refers to a situation in which he's been
accused of being a government agent engaged in a psyop. I've known Richard for
a long time, long enough that this seemed so incredulous that I dismissed it
instinctively; however, I made note of the irony that Richard has voiced such
suspicions himself about many other people over and over again, also usually
unfairly. Then something happened that I didn't expect. Somebody called
"911 IS A JOKE" posted a very indignant comment under the article
which included such sentiments as: "
You
and
he may keep evading that Ben..."
and "...are you going to shill out as usual?" Bear in mind that this
was their opening post; it was not a reply to anything I had said to him or
her. Seeing as this person was being so aggressive I responded in kind. To cut
a long story short, the comments section then blossomed into a collection of
fourteen enraged, sarcastic and contemptuous posts by at least four different
people. These posts are long and detailed, as you can see. I must admit I
spotted a familiar pattern in these tirades, one that I've had to deal with
before; for example see:
https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2016/12/is-larry-warren-fraud.html
and:
https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2018/01/gary-heseltine-on-reclaiming-perceptions.html.
Those situations led to me being banned from a conference, see:
https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2023/05/a-person-goes-to-olm-one-year-on_8.html.
At the same time one of these people, when they were making an attempt at being
calm and rational, informed me of several statements made by Tony Gosling, a
conspiracy researcher and radio show host. I don't know Tony Gosling very well.
Our paths have crossed at several conferences and 9/11 Truth events, but I've
only ever spoken to him briefly. He comes across as very aloof and detached, the
type who probably can't tell me apart from anybody else. He replied to me on
Facebook a couple of weeks ago when I posted a tribute to Ann Widdecombe. His
single sentence did nothing but point out that I had spelled her name slightly
wrong. He spoke at Probe once in the 2000's and I remember that he caused a lot
of trouble. Speakers at Probe are given one hour on stage and then they have to
stop because the conference is a multi-speaker event. I always respected this
schedule when I was invited onto the stage. Tony's speech timed out at almost
two hours and he decided that he was going to finish it no matter what and to
hell with the other speakers. He therefore refused to get off the stage at the
end of his allotted hour despite Jean and Sam constantly signalling to him that his time
was up. He just ignored them and carried on to the end. I just wish he had done
this at AV because Ian R Crane would have walked on and just slammed his laptop
shut. As it was Jean looked so angry and upset; and the day was delayed. Subsequent
speakers had their time cut back. After his talk Tony arrogantly walked out of
the room without speaking to anybody and left. So clearly this ugly duckling
thinks he's the goose that lays golden eggs, but is he? Tony has done an
interview with somebody called Aisling O'Loughlin all about Richard D Hall.
The interview is curiously Spartan when it comes to factual
discussion. Neil Sanders might be boring and trite, as well as completely wrong,
but he at least attempts to stick to evidence as he reads pages from
Snopes in his three-hour monologues,
see:
https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2024/11/the-downfall-of-richard-d-hall.html.
Tony Gosling and Aisling O'Loughlin say almost nothing about any evidence at
all. The only time I can think of where there is something a rationalist can
get their teeth into was where Aisling claims that the explosive supposedly used
by the Manchester Area bomber, Triacetone triperoxide, explains away the
anomalies at the inner casualty zone identified by Richard D Hall. It does not.
TATP may not produce a flame or heat, but it has about 83% of the power of TNT.
It would have broken the glass and cracked the floor for sure. What's more the
alleged culprit, Salman Abedi, was carrying an exceptionally heavy charge. They
also do not address the lack of CCTV evidence and the redacted images published
by official sources. What about the direct evidence that Richard is a
government agent? Tony wonders how he could afford to pay for the studio in
Consett. I've actually been to that studio, see:
https://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2010/10/my-interview-on-richplanet-starship.html,
and you'd be surprised to see what it's really like. It is on the top floor of
a very old office building tucked in between cupboards full of dust and
cobwebs. The items inside the cupboards could well be valuable as museum
pieces. The windows are very fragile looking plate glass that I was nervous
going near in case I stumbled against them and they broke, causing me to fall
out. They were grimy and the frames were rotten. They clearly were many decades
old. Richard's studio looks good on broadcasts with its green screen and props,
but Richard made them all himself. He earns money by selling DVD's and books.
He asked me to cover my travel expenses because he is short of cash, which I
agreed to. I stayed in the spare room of his house. If Tony is implying that
Richard is somehow funded by MI6 or something then he has no clue at all what
he's talking about. If Richard were a shill then Richplanet would be far more
upmarket and the money would be appearing out of nowhere. Aisling states that
Richard was "obviously put there" to run the supposed psyop, but
provides no reason why anybody should believe her. As with the BBC, Tony and
Aisling's conversation was anchored in emotion. Tony kept using words like
"pernicious", "poisonous" and "dangerous". He
totally supports the families in their claim that Richard has harassed them. He
keeps coming back again and again to declare that Richard and his supporters
have caused them an infinite amount of pain and distress. Tony Gosling is not
the first skeptic to assert moral ownership over terror victims, whether real
or fake. He totally disagrees with my assertion that these claims are bogus and
some outside influence put the claimants up to the lawsuit. He does not ask who
funded their prosecution. Ironically, Tony does indeed question the official
story of the
Manchester incident,
but he only does so up to the point of doubting who the perpetrator was. He
points out the Abedi family's connection to British intelligence and the plot
in
Libya which
David Shayler details here:
https://hpanwo-radio.blogspot.com/2012/10/programme-19-podcast-david-shayler.html.
What's more there was a second female suspect spotted that evening; but none of
this contradicts Richard's hypothesis. Tony then goes on to dismiss Richard's
work as a distraction from the "real conspiracy", a way the state can
confuse and repel people's interest by inserting a nonsense story that makes conspiracy
theorists look stupid; a psychological obstacle to gaining genuine information...
And he actually thinks he is being original! His attitude to 9/11 is exactly
the same, that Richard's support of Andrew Johnson and Dr Judy Wood is keeping
9/11 research away from the real story, that bombs and thermite were used; the
one proposed by Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth. If this is the extent
of his denouncement of Richard then it falls way short of rational persuasion. What's
more, I've explained in great detail, far more detail than Tony and Aisling
have managed, exactly why such distraction tactics cannot work; and that, if
anything, we're being subjected to a double-bluff, see:

In my view, there is currently no final answer to the Manchester Arena
happening. I'm not a hundred percent sure what took place that night; but between
Richard D Hall and Tony Gosling, along his interviewer, Richard has presented a
far more convincing case.
That brings us back to the waterfall of rage that my HPANWO
Free Substack comments section has turned into. It's actually very difficult to
analyze written passages when they are framed with continuous insults and
attacks. It's like trying to build a rebuttal on somebody while they are screaming
epithets in your ears. Basically, this is why "truth mobs" do it. It
also generates confusion in the exact way Tony Gosling mistakenly thinks
governments do. It's like walking in on a barroom brawl and expecting to hear
somebody explain calmly and quietly what the dispute was about, see:
https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2018/03/hampstead-truth-mobbing.html.
It was a fundamental tactic of the hate cults that grew up around Larry Warren,
Kevin Annett and Darren Perks. However, I think I've managed to filter a skeleton
of a gist from this diatribe. There are a number of bloggers; their names are "Adrasteia",
"Blue Sky Maiden", "Dub SurgeOn", "Protrue",
"Miri AF" and possibly a few others, who have taken on the task of
commenting on Richard D Hall and his supporters. There seems to be some kind of
flame war underway between this faction and a gang of whom they refer to as "trolls"
and "shills". They repeat a lot of the baseless accusations that Tony
Gosling makes, albeit it in a far more hysterical tone. To complicate matters
further, "Blue Sky Maiden" seems to agree with Richard that there are
suspicious elements to the photographic record from the 22nd, but has still
fallen into conflict with Iain Davis because he and Richard ignored what they
said. Whenever I look into the background of these shill squad operations I
almost always find that it began with an irrelevant personal dispute; Danielle
La Verité is a prime example, see:
https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2014/12/the-shill-shaming-of-danielle-la-verite.html.
Dr Nick Kollerstrom seems to agree with "Blue Sky Maiden", yet he has
done so without turning hyperallergenic against Richard and Iain. From what I
gather, based on the information sent to me by my challengers on Substack, these
people have got into a conflict of some kind with Richard and Iain Davis
because the latter two dispute the evidence presented by the authors and this
argument has simply got out of hand, as internet arguments so often do. If I'm
right then I don't understand how it's any of my business. No doubt they will
respond by accusing me of "fence sitting" or being an
"enabler"... what am I talking about? They already have! They have created
up to fourteen comments inspired simply by my favourable review of Richard's
tour. Rational discussion with people like that is not possible. Sources:

I know very well that Richard D Hall makes enemies easily. By his own
admission, he lacks diplomacy skills. I myself fell out with him over an attack
he made against me on Facebook. The point is that his personality is not a
crime. He does not deserve the attempt to suppress him financially and socially
by the government, the BBC and a bunch of litigious mercenaries. I have
personally witnessed many times Richard's rather light trigger finger when it
comes to rejecting people as "agents" and their work as
"psyops" for no good reason. For example he stated that he thought
Linda Moulton Howe might be compromised. His evidence? She disagreed with him
about human mutilations, see:
https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2021/12/richplanet-tv-on-aatip.html.
This does not justify, or even mitigate, Richard being subjected to the same
treatment. He does not deserve to be called a shill, unless he happens to be
one. I don't think he is a shill; I've seen no good reason at all to suspect
him of being a shill. What's more there are endless reasons to believe that he
most definitely is not. I'm convinced that he is being sincere in his work. I'd
like to think that this article I've just written will put this nonsensical and
juvenile truth mobbing chimp-out to bed; but, of course, I know from experience
that it won't. As with Larry Warren, Kevin Annett, Darren Perks and many
others, these hobbyhorses don't last forever. They have a shelf-life and we
just have to wait until they run out of energy; and the members just get bored
and go away to do something else. They all end up that way eventually.
