Byrne's self-aggrandizing and, perhaps, embellishment notwithstanding, there is a good chunk of pretty reasonable commentary and recommendation herein.
JimRob has been clear that posts of threats, threats of violence, death wishes, etc., hints of ill will, not even jokingly will not to be tolerated on FR. In that spirit, I think much of what Byrne says about nonviolence is incredibly prudent.
I don't represent Byrne nor do I agree with everything he says. But I believe 28 mins of time in reading this piece is time well-spent.
TLDR.......Trump lost for two reasons, one I agree with the other I don’t. The one I agree with is the democrats framed the Covid thing to blame him and it worked. Like it or not. The other is some people didn’t like his mouth. Me, I was fine with it, but for Democrats......not so much. Biden didn’t win this election, democrats came out in droves to vote against trump and that was it.
I’ve read all these articles by Byrne so far. I believe half of what he is saying. The other half is just pretty obvious to anybody. The biggest take away for me in this article is this. This is pretty good material.........
The stages of a regime-changing psyop (per what’s known as “the Bezmenov Model“) are:
Demoralization of the country;
Disorientation;
Crisis;
Normalization
It takes little imagination to fit to this paradigm the events of the last year:
Demoralization of the country – Covid-19;
Disorientation – Antifa & BLM;
Crisis–election counting stops in 6 cities in 6 swing states, then a surprise;
Normalization – the media gaslights anyone who sees anything odd here
2022 will be our last shot. If there is election integrity, I believe the Goons will lose the House and Senate in a landslide, because Americans see their true colors. On the other hand, if we do not restore election integrity by then, then next election will also be rigged, and we will have tipped our way into a fascist, authoritarian dystopian version of America, run by Goons.

Byrne is being very optimistic here. Very pie in the sky optimistic. There are many reasons why the “goons” Will win again in 2022.
Number one will be, as usual, the Stupid Party. Once again they will screw up and screw over conservatives who simply won’t vote for them.
Secondly will be the emergence of a third-party. A. MAGA Party if you will. And as we all know third parties do nothing but split votes leaving Democrats the winners.
Thirdly, there will be no election reform.

Prudent? Maybe so. But effective? Maybe not.
Martin Luther King Jr. was a pacifist without a doubt. But he understood the impact of rioting and violence and the results of those riots. And even today all America can see what antifa and BLM have done. Their violent tactics succeeded; conservative tactics, whatever they might be, have failed.
And even though the January 6 Capitol riot has been inflated and blown completely out of proportion by the liberals. It’s still a good thing for us to let them believe it was so dangerous.
One thing is extremely clear to me. Using our laws, our courts and our legal system, and our voting booths to make any further progress has been and will be a complete waste of time.
TY for the links. Very, very interesting, and very disturbing if true.
