I am not sure if this was posted before here, just watch as much as you can stomach Wilcock's huge ego and you'll clearly see how they are acting exactly like some 2 life insurance reps who are crushing it in sales and bragging about how everyone wants to be in their shoes... This whole truth spreading is simply their commodity to sell. David is so money focused that he is even trying to speculate how much money people are making from online hits from "copying" his material as if it was all lost revenue for him... If his true intentions were seriously about spreading the truth then he should't be concerned about loosing $60 bucks from lost video hits...

Not as much bloated ego as I would have thought from the thread comments, but not nice either.

One way of knowing where one stands in matters like this is when dissenting voices get defined collectively as paid trolls, as in this video. That means that anyone on Avalon who has posted on this subject is an alleged paid troll, something they simply know is not true. While this is personal subjective knowledge, its being shared by a community tarred with a single brush makes it somewhat objective. If you kind of suspected that Daniel Liszt, Bill Ryan and others were not paid trolls, then this personal knowledge that you yourself are not makes that suspicion something of a certainty.
The trouble is that this same rationale also operates in other cases: real trolls, paid or unpaid, conscious or unconscious, will stick together for exactly the same reason. So which side are we on? Rather than two sides, I suspect it is more of a continuum leading up to a watershed where anything can happen. There is no other guide than total honesty in knowing who you are and who you want to be, which direction you want to take. We appear to be at the parting of the ways, arriving on a single railway platform with trains leaving in either direction and a bustle to get everyone on the right train.
There are people on both sides who know who they are and who they want to be, and the two things coincide. But in the middle, there are others for whom, for whatever reason, the two do not coincide. Whoever they want to be, they are either being deceived and/or deceiving themselves, and they need to work out who they really are. One’s task is to help such people, to help us all. How? By bringing whatever vision and lucidity we can to this process of the blind leading the blind.
Here is a tiny concrete instance of (self-)deception I noted years ago in the David Wilcock material. I had been reading about his making a big deal of a little number synchronicity thing whereby he would be seeing the same digit (any digit) aligned in threes in his view count. Since this was a five-figure number, we are talking about a 33/1 chance. This could be significant depending on how often you check. But if you take this seriously, as he does, then you will likely be checking more often and thereby both increasing your chances and decreasing the significance; hence the process becomes weakly self-fulfilling. But that is not my point here. The idea was that whatever one had just been thinking when such a synchronicity popped up was important; so I decided to give it a try.
So I came to a piece about how David’s mother came into a valuable piece of land to build a house on, as a gift from a friend (this is my segue with Flash’s post). This suggested how aligned she was with the universe (and her son by association?): she had this accommodation problem, and a beautiful solution just came along at the right moment. I thought, well maybe so; but it could be a case of plain... corruption. I then came across a ‘you-know-it-makes-sense’ donation request, and I thought, No I don’t think so! And I promptly had one of those little synchronicities telling me to attach importance to what I had just been thinking!
You see, it doesn’t matter what one thinks of this stuff: it is self-debunking: by its own criteria it simply does not work. There is self-deception at work here since Wilcock’s own protocol can be used to invalidate his own data. Note: in the above, I have not demonstrated in any way that his mother did not just happen to have a generous friend who gave her some land: maybe she did. I simply had the thought that it might be otherwise, and was instructed to see that thought as significant. It WAS significant, not as evidence of corruption, only as proof of David’s self-delusion on this one point. It would of course be self-delusional to read more into it than that.
This is what serious research is about. Tiny details lead to limited conclusions. Something may be a one-off (mistake) or part of a series of one-offs. It can be extremely hard going for the researcher unwilling to draw overarching conclusions – and for his readers, if they are looking for yes-or-no answers. But if similar cases come to light, a pattern is formed, and researchers begin to learn what to look for and where to look for it. They start making predictions and it begins to get scientific: progress becomes a little easier.
The same painstaking approach is required in researching synchronicity itself, otherwise it floats off into woo-woo insignificance. It is not some kind of magic recipe, it is something firmly grounded in reality; in other words, it has an identifiable material aspect. This is where the danger lies and the wool gets pulled over your eyes. Spiritualism without the tiny, unambitious steps of materialism is the best excuse for all kinds of deceptions and shortcuts, as GK Chesterton’s priest-detective Father Brown knew perfectly well. Here is a quote I made from Chesterton 18 months ago in the Shane thread:

there are signs that the irrational Jones still dreams at night of this old
idea of having an ordinary home. He asked for so little, and he has been offered so
much. He has been offered bribes of worlds and systems; he has been offered Eden
and Utopia and the New Jerusalem, and he only wanted a house; and that has been
refused him. (…)
The idea of private property universal but private, the idea of families free but still
families, of domesticity democratic but still domestic, of one man one house--this
remains the real vision and magnet of mankind.
