This is not one of my typical posts I normally do on VOP. This post is more of an opinion piece as I examine a troll here at Steemit whom has made it a point to comment negatively on my every post that has been shared by VOP on their Twitter account.

The account in question belongs to @infodepository. Here is their response to my latest post.

I do hope that once your book about VOP is complete, you at least categorize it as fiction. Lewis' and Paul's fraud will fully be known by most sooner rather than later. Many already know of their previous fraud campaigns. VOP and DSW have lost most all of their following and support they initially attracted. They've managed to rack up some criminal charges, court dates, many potential criminal and civil charges, and a few criminal investigations against them over the past 5 months since starting operation backyard brawl. At the end of the day, what they claim they have accomplished, even if it were true, is insignificant. Although, I think they should stay on as desert/border clean up crews. Many like that the garbage is being picked up.

You seem like a smart enough fellow. How is it you would permit yourself to be a pro propagandist for Lewis and Paul? Why would you allow your talent to be squandered and reputation tarnished by representing these fraudsters? It's a serious question.

There is no doubt that child/human trafficking is occurring at the AZ/Mex border...hell, throughout our country and the world. I hope you have informed yourself of the organizations and operations that ARE actually combating the problem. Legitimate organizations who have done significant research on the problem, who have documentation, reports and statistics showing their research, operations, and successes. My point being, all the support, financial or otherwise, that has been given to VOP over the past 5 months, could have gone to such organizations and operations that actually know what they are doing and have had much success in fighting trafficking...and will continue to do so with support. Anyone, with even a modicum of intellect and critical thinking skills, anyone who has some idea of how the world actually works...while looking at VOP, Lewis, and Paul, can see their con job.

I hope you come to realize what you seem to either not know, or refuse to know about VOP, and you are able to avoid destroying any future you may have had as a credible and successful writer and author.

I wish to first clear the air on the issue of credibility. There are those who stick their necks out on the line, willing to risk everything in their quest for justice and what is right. These men and women are true heroes, embracing an anarchist view of voluntary action without needing some central bureaucracy to handle it for them. In this case the crimes appear to have some level of bureaucratic cooperation based on the efforts to stop them from impeding this horrible paradigm.

There are many keyboard warriors online, a good portion of them paid opposition to real changes being made I suspect due to the disinformation and constant attempts at focusing on arguments between other keyboard warriors. Then there are those who are real warriors, such as Lewis Arthur, Paul Flores and those who help the VOP ministry. These real warriors have remained undeterred despite heavy government persecution, slander and intimidation, vandalism, etc. They do this because no sane person in the world believes that homeless people make camps that have solar lights (what first drew the curiosity of Lewis to look harder at the camp), trees with restraints, children’s clothing, a baby crib, a stroller, an outdoor bathroom, pornographic material, hair dye, a tank turned on its side with children’s belongings inside (children would need assistance to get out). The list of evidence could go on, but this is enough for any RATIONAL person to know this was not a homeless camp. I have mentioned the lies taking place by officials (documented by Flores and VOP). Backpedaling by so called truthers and “experts” after the initial find. Truthers who make a good bit of coin off their channels and work in many cases.

An issue of credibility

It was mentioned to me by the account I led this post off with that I was losing credibility and would lose it all if I continued on writing about VOP, especially if I publish the book I am writing. Here’s the thing. Unlike many who do this for coin, I do it because these heroes need support. They need the public to realize the hardships and persecution they find themselves under. VOP and Paul Flores are the ones with credibility here. They are the ones walking this walk of fire. Walking it because THEY CARE. No keyboard warrior has more credibility than them, as they produce the real fruits by which we can know. They walk their talk, they document their walk.

I have no need to seek this so called credibility. I have watched the persecution they receive and KNOW my book, once published, will be met with the same. I KNOW THIS AND DON’T CARE. I am not doing this for fame, nor riches. I am doing it to reach those with eyes to see, ears to hear. There has been so much scrubbing of the internet on this righteous mission and they need people to know the corruption and evil taking place. That is more important than some stupid credibility issue. Credible with WHO I would ask? I would suggest that the more these truths are fought by the government, their paid trolls and those who just want to fight over stuff for whatever reason, the more smoke is made showing how entrenched this evil is in the establishment.

In closing, I wish to point out one thing I noticed when looking into the account of @infodepository. Their account was created back in April, and their only activity here on this site has been to post disparaging comments on my Steemit posts on VOP that have been pinned by VOP on Twitter. Yet somehow they managed to have a big name following them, @frankbacon. Guessing that the account may belong to Frank Bacon, but if not has to be someone that he knows/works with. Frank doesn’t follow enough people to randomly follow people who create accounts here, especially when they don't post. Would be curious to hear from you Frank if you feel like shedding any light here.

That list above is why I do this. We need more of them and less keyboard warriors, and it is an honor to share their deeds with others.

Thank you Lewis and those of you out there doing God’s work. You show the rest of us what faith can accomplish.
