On the matter of the John Birch Society (JBS)

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | March 21st, 2021

I’m going to file this report under solutions.  Why?  Because the JBS has a long history of successes and has a well-oiled and established national organization to help us fight against the enslavement our current set of globalist tyrants have planned for us. The JBS has been fighting the NWO long before most of us were born.  Let’s see what they have learned.

If we turn to the heavily compromised Wikipedia we are not surprised to find the familiar echo chamber echoing the corporate media narrative.  This is still instructive, since we must have a fulcrum from which to view this topic.   But we soon find terms like fringe, far-right and conspiracy theorists embellishing Wiki’s JBS page; this sophistry is designed to stop thought dead in its tracks; and to deflect any additional analysis away from the topic at hand … thus, these prejudicial terms become “well-established facts”  within the walled-garden of permitted discourse allowed by the existing power structure. To conclude before we have the facts may save some time initially, but does not advance our understanding of the topic.

Wikipedia:  

“The John Birch Society (JBS) is an American political advocacy group supporting anti-communism and limited government.  It has been described as a radical right or far-right organization.

Businessman and founder Robert W. Welch Jr. (1899–1985) developed an organizational infrastructure of nationwide chapters in December 1958. After an early increase in membership and influence, efforts by critics of the JBS, such as conservative William F. Buckley Jr. and National Review, pushed for the organization to be identified as a fringe element of the conservative movement, mostly out of fear of the radicalization of the American right. More recently Jeet Heer has argued in The New Republic that while the organization’s influence peaked in the 1970s, “Bircherism” and its legacy of conspiracy theories have become the dominant strain in the conservative movement. Politico has asserted that the JBS began making a resurgence in the mid-2010s, while the JBS has argued that it shaped the modern conservative movement and especially the Trump administration. Writing in The Huffington Post, Andrew Reinbach called the JBS “the intellectual seed bank of the right.”

Originally based in Belmont, Massachusetts, the John Birch Society is now headquartered in Grand Chute, Wisconsin a suburb of Appleton, Wisconsin, with local chapters throughout the United States. The organization owns American Opinion Publishing, which publishes the magazine The New American.”

Memo to Wikipedia: Hang on there just a minute, Skippy!”

Now, just because Wikipedia, the MSM, the Southern Poverty Law Center and other marketers of propaganda choose to smear the John Birch Society with fuzzy, inexact, emotionally-charged “well-established” presumptive fact-claims that magically mesh so well with the current globalist agenda, is no reason for us to think highly or lowly of the JBS.   Why?  Because we have our own brains and do not need to rent a brain from known prevaricators;  AND,  we also know how to think critically and objectively.   After all, many of these smear-merchants are the same ones who have lied us into every major war of the 20th century and continue to lie to us about  JFK, 9/11 and the recent “fair and honest” election giving Biden more votes than any other human in American history.  These folks are merchants of BS (smearing it everywhere) and purveyors of lies and deceptions we politely call spin or propaganda; and so, any of their fact-claims deserve to be thoroughly examined.

I would invite you to thoroughly investigate and register your email with the JBS.org web site to see what great work JBS is doing and how well organized they are.  James Perloff use to write for their New American magazine and G. Edward Griffin provides a great introduction to the JBS below.   Also see Alex Newman Senior Editor of the New American.
