The problem is that hes right some of the time. There's just enough truth in there to keep his fans loyal.

he says some outlandish things so that the intelligence analysis will write him off as a crackpot. Why do you think he has not suffered an unfortunate car / plane crash ? They tolerate the truth he speaks because it is so caught up in a web of disinformation. AJ is hardly 100% of the time right. But he is never outright wrong.

There are plenty of people out there far more inflammatory than he is, and they're somehow alive still. I think they go after community organizers that venture into realspace. Aaron Swatrz comes to mind, as he played a large part in mobilizing people to stop SOPA.

I guess its also possible that some of these people are still around because they take their OPSEC seriously, and don't carry cellphones all the time, or use computer-managed vehicles.

The best and most efficient lies are those with 99% truth, and the 1% a lie, to direct your view of the truth.
