Where is Gonzalo Lira? And how is it okay that he's been missing for five days?
"Our free press" hates dissidents as much as Ukraine's Nazis do
Gonzalo Lira, the Chilean-American journalist/novelist/filmmaker, whose excellent commentaries on the Ukraine conflict (under the name Coach Red Pill) I’ve shared here, has disappeared. He has not been heard from for five days. Have the Nazis captured him? They surely would, as that is what they’ve done to many “traitors”; and Lira has been highly critical of their regime, offering reasonable analysis of Putin’s motives, and the actual success of Russia’s military operation.
Here is how the Nazis have been dealing with their enemies:

If he’s been kidnapped, and is under torture, or dead, you can blame the Daily Beast, as Lira himself has said. Watch this:
A good piece on the situation:

It would be bad enough if there were total silence over Lira’s fate. There has been no expression of concern about his welfare; and there are freaks all over “social media” now rejoicing over Lira’s disappearance—yet one more sign of the vast moral degradation caused by the flood-tide of hate-propaganda generated, and avidly absorbed, by liberals.
Whatever they think, those of us who still have democratic principles, including a belief that journalists (and that means not just “credentialed” members of the press, but anyone who seeks out, and reports, the news) should not be snatched and killed for what they tell us, must see Gonzalo Lira’s disappearance, and the barbarous response to it online, as a bad sign for all of us—as bad a sign as the ongoing detention/torture of Julian Assange, another journalist in dire condition for contradicting the official narrative.
From Scott Ritter (on Telegram):
When Belorussian authorities pulled Roman Protasevich, a blogger who
had served a combat tour in the neo-Nazi Azov battalion before working
for Radio Free Europe’s Belarus channel out of Prague, off an airplane
in May, 2021, on charges of inciting a political opposition (roughly
the equivalent of sedition), the world went crazy, accusing Belarusian
President Alexander Lukashenko of trampling on free speech.
Protasevich is alive and well, living under house arrest while
awaiting trial.
When reports emerged that Gonzo Lira, a Chilean social media
“influencer” who resided in Kharkov, Ukraine, and who published online
content critical of the Ukrainian government, was kidnapped, tortured,
and murdered by the Kraken Unit, part of the Azov battalion affiliated
with the Ukrainian Security Service (SBU), the West is silent.
Free speech isn’t a one way street. To remain silent in the murder of
Gonzo Lira is to be complicit in his death, and the deaths of all
journalists who pursue the truth, even if it runs counter to the
mainstream narrative. Critical thinking should not be a death
sentence. Unfortunately for Gonzo Lira, it seems it was.

Nadezda Kuznetsova, Former Journalist at Московская правда:
"For those who are seeing strange activities on Telegram channels of the people who have disappeared in Ukraine and have been supposedly kidnapped by SBU or neo-Nazi formations, Ukrainian authorities can break into the Telegram account via the mobile operator if it is in Ukraine. They did it to many Ukrainian opposition members.
For instance, they have broken into and are now using Tatiana Montyan’s old verified account. ( The real Tatiana is now on the new, unverified channel.) She did apply to Pavel Durov and Telegram support team, so did thousands of her followers - no reaction.
And once again - they don't need your mobile device or even password. As long as you are using a Ukrainian mobile net. So don't be fooled seeing some unusual activity on Gonzalo Lira`s Telegram channel - it means… the activity is most likely not by him "

(3) Where is Gonzalo Lira? Missing in Ukraine since 15th April - YouTube

This post (in German) mentions Gonzalo Lira’s disappearance, in addition to the recent disappearance of the owner of a pro-Russian YouTube Channel “Europe’s Voice” (GolosEvropi). His last video was published April 2.
Where is Gonzalo Lira? And how is it okay that he's been missing for five days?
Watch carefully to see if and how long it takes Greenwald and Taibbi to jump on this story.
Greenwald in particular should be all over this as it triggers two of his favorite talking points:
1. The Corporate Media is in bed with the Security State. (No shit.)
2. The current crop of journalists (Taylor Lorenz) don't know the first thing about putting yourself in harms' way. (Like me, Glenn...Snowden and Lula guy)
So one would think The Daily Freaking Beast, CIA cutout, tossing a true journalist putting himself in danger would activate Glenn Greenwald.
One would think that, but then again, such a firebrand probably would have been all over the Sen. Ron Johnson hearings exposing the massive fraud of the US Public Health response to the COVID crisis, and following the bread crumbs all the way to the WEF, Build Back Better, and 190-nations marching into fascism, digital ID's, Vax Passports, digital cash, frozen funds like Canadian Convoy, WEF Young Leaders in Canada, NZ, Aussie...Five Eyes...all going full fascism.
And maybe cover a true whistleblower like Brook Jackson, who shone the light on the Pfizer trials.
Meanwhile Taibbi addressed Canadian Convoy with the following:
“The problem is that we’re heading into our third decade of Western leaders embracing not thinking ahead as a core national security concept. It’s like these people went to anti-governing school.”
MT conveniently failed to even mention the WEF Young Global Leaders program which began...::checks notes::30-YEARS AGO.
You reach a point, I gather, where you have enough money and cache, that it's just not worth your time and energy to really look under the rock.
Thank you, Mark Crispin Miller, for being a real one. (Your podcast with RFK was brilliant, a high a level of analytical pairing)
Of course The Daily Beast threw Gonzalo Lira into harm's way, The Daily Beast is a CIA op, as is much of the liberal "mainstream" media. Operation Mockingbird hiding out in plains sight.
