I've actually not yet been to Dallas, nor toured the museum (obviously). Is that buckyball still there, looking down on Dealy Plaza?
However, I did budget myself permission to dive in to three conspiracy theories at a time, bouncing around between them, and not all three slots had to be occupied. I picked two of the most obvious: JFK and 911.
Regarding the JFK one, we may be coming to the end of the road, as the truth that Oswald was deep in the deep state, an operative, is now finally becoming mainstream. The as-yet-unborn (when it happened) have wanted their due by law: "we don't care, just tell us, OK we thought so" is kind of how it's going.
Of course they do care on some level, just as they care about a government that has back door (behind the scenes) access to Twitter. It'd be better to have a more even playing field, with law enforcement being more public and obvious about its objections, going after Tweeters that broke some real law, not some ad hoc "community standard" cobbled together by corporate dweebs, and without taking unfair advantage.
We know a lot of them would like to shell us, out here in the American Donbass, where we freely play by our own rules. They already dispatched Border Patrol under the last crook. They seem to hate Portlandia for some reason.
I've come at the story through Kerry Thornley, a Discordian and friend of Oswald's, although not an associate or co-conspirator. According to Jim Garrison and others, he typified the Oswald type in some degree: unafraid of the establishment because able to navigate it. Only to a point though. We see what happened to Oswald.
Kerry gets me thinking of the Laurel Canyon generation, circa The Doors and Frank Zappa. A lot of these kids were refugees from military-industrial nuclear families back east, and as such were unafraid of authority, having sprung from the same matrix. I'd put Tucker Carlson in the same boat: a privileged dog, never beaten.
These parents were not that tyrannical, I report from experience. Curtis Yarvin had a similar upbringing I think, another egg hatched in the church incubator. It's more an "elitist" than a "working class" mentality.
In interviews with Kerry as an old man with nothing to hide, he revealed what today sounds like shocking anti-Kennedy rhetoric. That hatred for the Irish Mafia (a term of endearment) was deep seated, and tour guides such as Colonel Fletcher Prouty (Oliver Stone's "Man X") tried hard to tell us why. It's a psychological tale, and those aren't always the easiest to communicate.
Scholars have traced Lee's final attempt to make a phone call, from prison, we think to someone familiar with his long career as an intelligence community asset. He had not "defected" to Russia so much as he was transplanted, with authorization. More, he had proved his immunity to either side's propaganda, which made him seem dangerous.
I see no evidence he was the shooter though, or even one of them. He and Jack Ruby came from the same underworld, a world scrubbed from the narrative by the Warren Commission, mostly because the American public was not sophisticated enough to appreciate the criminal element. They hadn't yet seen Breaking Bad and like that.
My view is not fringe or marginal in light of recent declassifications and pundit banter. I'm hiding out in the crowd with these views, as a blogger, not "in the closet" nor with any need to be. I'm not suddenly "a subversive" because I've been caught promoting mainstream views.
