i know what controlled opposition is. you can tell with egypt that the powers that be wanted mubarak to stay in power, but they also control many grassroots movements, including the muslim brotherhood.
i think you're jumping the gun with a few of these people.
gerald celente isn't much of a "truther", he just spots trends and makes money off of it.
alex jones may be a fool, but he is a honest fool. you can tell if someone is brainwashed, or if they are trying to force their message onto you.
i don't like strawman arguments, and this audio is full of them.
please do more research and link your findings.
some paranoia is good, but too much is a bad thing. there are nuggets of truth in even controlled opposition, and as long as you are smart enough to not take anything at face value, and research anything that you want to believe, and develop your own ideas, then controlled opposition doesn't work. that is unless you only watch tv shows of controlled opposition and do no research on what propaganda is being pushed.
belief only helps to a certain point, and without action it is essentially worthless.
kudos on pointing this out though, i just think the list should be graded, with different levels of influence of control.
