Whistleblower
| Some dare call it |
| Secrets revealed! |
| The revealers |
A whistleblower is a person exposing corruption in an organization. Not just anyone can be a whistleblower, as you must actually be telling the truth, and have proof.
There is an organisation, the National Whistleblowers Center, "dedicated to protecting employees’ lawful disclosure of waste, fraud, and abuse."

[edit] Idiot whistleblowers
In the world of conspiracy theorists, a whistleblower is anyone who claims to be one. No proof required.[1][2] All you have to do is slap "EX-ILLUMINATI"[3] before your name, and that proves the theory to be true.
- Robert Conners - Depends on who you ask. Illuminati[4]/Michael Jackson murder[5]
- Doctor Jim Garrow Doesn't like Obama ... or gays "...claimed that he had been a covert CIA agent but was fired by none other than Obama himself ..."[6]
- Ted Gunderson - Every conspiracy theory under the sun.[7]
- Carl Lentz - A pastor who claimed to have Illuminati meeting[8]
- Donald Marshal - Illuminati - [9]
- Kristen Meghan[10] Chemtrails. Metabunk has an discussion on her. She entered the discussion, but when she couldn't provide proof, she left. This is her response, along with another video claiming we're "trolls"[11] She had a lot of public appearances and speeches, so there's no way she's lying. At all. Obviously.[12]
- Aaron Russo - The Rockefellers and the New World Order
- Svali
- John Todd- Satanism and Illuminati
- Gwenyth Todd - World War 3, and a planned Iran War[13]
- Leo Zagami[14]
- Mark Taylor - Columbine shooting[15] The nuttier will tell you "New World Order"[16]
- Paul Mooney - Though it's not so much as he lied to us it's that people can't figure out what a joke is.[17] He actually does this quite a bit.[18] For people who says he'll be killed, he currently has cancer, so nice try.
- Stew Webb[19], of course he, along with Preston James, is accused of being part of the Illuminati.[20]. Sometimes paired with Chip Tatum on NWO theories.[21]
- Preston James[22][23] - Aliens
- Gordon Duff[24][25] ISIS
[edit] Hold it!
This is not by any means a complete list. Why are there so many? Because... fame. You can get famous in the company of other conspiracy theorists by taking advantage of their (and your own) gullibility.
[edit] How to become a celebrity on YouTube
Simple:
- Think of a good story out of your ass, preferably about how you were in the Army, and you found out they work for (insert bogeyman here)
- Put on a uniform
- Tell your "story" to the suckers
- Watch your views, and probably your Paypal account, skyrocket.
[edit] Jokes
It's completely impossible to crack a goddamn joke about the Illuminati without someone claiming it is real. For example, if Katt Williams (Yes,him) starts to joke about it during an interview [26], he will immediately be called an "insider", even though he is still alive a year later and Michael Jackson and Robin Williams dies after "exposing" them subtlety.
See, here's what happens: If someone "exposes" the Illuminati, and they don't die, then suddenly the Illuminati don't mind if they're exposed or think it will be too obvious if they kill said person. However, if someone "exposes" them in a LOT more subtle manner, and they die... they died because they exposed them. So, er... which one? Kind of makes the CT always win doesn't it?
[edit] Added bonus!
- When you do this, you can't die of natural causes anymore! If you ever die, it will have nothing to do with how you smoked your whole life, or were fighting cancer for years, and everything to do with (insert bogeyman here) killing you for exposing (Insert conspiracy Theory here)!
[edit] Whistleblower's dilemma
Whistleblowers face a lot of consequences for their actions, including unemployment and prosecutions (via the Espionage Act[27][28]). The dilemma comes from the decision of exposing or not exposing the illegal or unethical practices of their establishment to the public, if their superior(s) do nothing or are part of the problem. Discrediting in the form of character assassinations are expected by both their employer and the media.
[edit] How do they cover their ass?
In the United States, there are the Whistleblower Protection Act of 1989[29] and Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2007[30]. There's hope!
[edit] Further reading
- C. Fred Alford is a great scholar to read about what whistleblowers have to deal with once they're outed. He has written a few academic articles on the topic and a book called Whistleblowers: Broken Lives and Organizational Power. His website at the University of Maryland is over here.
- Cryptome is a site that archives most of the leaks you ever want to find.
