What makes you believe that this "gathering" was contrived cover, mis-direction and disinformation?
Tweakers have no sense of reality. They are psychotic, amoral and there is no reasoning with one. No humanity at all. They can fool anyone of us, as the are master manipulators.
That's quite a leap of presumption in the case of Hastings...
I have a much different concept of who-is-fooling-who, and just who the real "manipulators" are in this case....
Now just who would have to motive to see to it that Hastings was not only eliminated, but that the narrative would support the notion that he was "unstable" to begin with?
The cabal has teams of disinformation spreaders on “social media” and forums. They invent stuff and spread it as though it were known, proven fact with supporting evidence. I never read that he had had a drug problem, or that his family was gathering for some kind of intervention. I have not read everything admittedly, but did read every article I saw for the few weeks after it happened.
I find it interesting that the info (?) about his family wanting an intervention for his drug habit was released not by the family (who had requested NO CREMATION and were denied - the FAMILY!!) but by the coroner’s office. And not months ago, but very recently. Sure needs corroboration. And Hastings certainly does not look like a tweaker; there are very few if any “casual” meth users, they become addicts almost instantly and turn into strange creatures right away.
The coroner’s office got the message when Breitbart was killed and the coroner poisoned with arsenic. They like to live, too.
