Christmas Q&A – Do you have a question for the Independent Media Alliance?
It’s December, and to wrap up the year The Independent Media Alliance is having its final livestream of 2025!
On Friday December 12th, to mark the holidays, a panel of IMA regulars will be fielding questions submitted by you — our shared audiences of viewers and readers.
No question is too big or small, serious or silly.
Politics to pop culture
history to humour
Any and every subject is fair game…
So ask away!
If you have a question you’d like one or all of the IMA to address you can do any of the following –
💢send it in via our submissions email with the subject line “IMA Q&A”
💢post it in the comments
💢send it to us via social media.
If it’s intended for a specific member of the panel, please make that clear in the text.
Confirmed panelists so far (there may be more to come) :
Iain Davis
Ryan Cristian
Derrick Broze
Hrvoje Moric
Kit Knightly
Steve Poikonen.
We’ll try to make it live, and if so will have someone keeping an eye on chat messages, but submitting your question before hand is much more likely to get it answered.

Our question is “where do you think we will be Digital ID wise a year from now”.
My question is this.
How is it you can follow the evidence and see the deceptions you write about, but refuse the evidence that the very holiday you will soon celebrate is way more deceptive than all politicians/governments you have ever written about. You will make the merchants rich because of the delicacies/ teachings of the whore, but refuse to see yourself deceived in her?
Why do you all believe in nuclear bombs?
For the whole panel. What do you think is going on in Antarctica?
What do you appeal to when reason fails?
I believe this is a question we all should try to find (solution-oriented) answers for ourselves to, since we will have a lot of non-reasonable people and machines to deal with in the coming years. What are your thoughts (and/or even deeper reflections) on this?
As implied by Mike Pompeo, if the US renegades on the Budapest memorandum, should Ukraine, Poland, the Baltics, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Japan, S. Korea, Taiwan, Australia, etc get nukes? And when Trump said “you’ve got no cards”, is “cards” a euphemism for nukes?
what happens in the end time when your messiah comes back?
what happens to the non believers and isnt that no different than a new world order.
The scenarios differ in some sense.
A ‘New World Order’ being a post-WWII construct. The building of a new world order after nations had essentially battered each other indiscriminately.
Of course exploited in the modern era by ‘alternative’ types with an eye primarily on profit. Are they not able to obtain a basic income elsewhere and so keep their politics separate? It seems not. Much like the character in Albert Camus ‘The Plague’ who financially gained while the Plague raged.
The basic rule for the Messiah’s return is to be ready. It’ll come like a thief in the night. So getting your house nice and tidy seems most appropriate…
In the last 10 years you have done 1 article on religion.
How it is a majority if your The
NONIndependent Media Alliance all believe in jesus ?Kit, what news of your missing cat?
‘The full brunt of a level 3 geomagnetic storm is expected to arrive on
Tuesday December 9th.
If you feel off, have a headache, are tired, or have any issues with
mood that are unusual. the solar storm could very likely be the cause.’

Will the Netflix-Warner Bros deal reduce competition in the entertainment industry?
Ha, ha, ha, _ _ _ who gives a shit?
Ninety five percent of their output is mind numbing pabulum.
Dear IMA panel,
how do you keep it with the deceptive “Santa brings the presents” and further “little lies” and nonsensical “fantasy lore” about elves and other spirits around the Christmas holidays with your children/nieces/nephews etc.? Do you partake or do you handle this topic kind of differently – are you being honest and celebrate those holidays differently than the normal Joes and Janes out there?
Why am I getting raging headaches when I’m sandwiched between two 5G towers on the Thames estuary and aerial spraying is visible on most days. Why, despite peer reviewed studies connecting the decline of insect life globally with 5G rollout is this not a focus of any general concern? Why are they fucking with us on such a huge scale and barely being challenged?
We are the protected class and therefore it doesnt work on us.
And the ticks? Are you so sure you want the ticks back? ‘Our nature and ticks are so natural and bite our skin naturally, in a so natural green way’.
You cant live without a lot of ticks?
a) What accounts for the scandalous absence of any reference by world leaders and elected politicians to death and serious injury statistics compiled since the introduction of COVID mRNA injections across the Earth?
b) What accounts for the American/Western corporate media’s refusal to engage in and broadcast extensive interviews with top leaders of nations which are purportedly adversaries, such as Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela, Brazil, Nicaragua, India, BRICS nations, etc.?
c) Why has the Frank Taylor Report, – the scandalous, bogus “evidentiary basis” for NATO Article 5 triggering of the illegal war against Afghanistan – not yet received the global attention necessary for attaining total public awareness and demands for conducting a real investigation into the world-changing crimes of September 11, 2001?
d) Why has pioneer Internet of BioNano Things (IoBNT) scientist Ian F. Akyildiz, who publicly admitted COVID injections were small, nano-scale machines, not been issued a subpoena to testify under oath and become questioned inside the United States Congress?
e) Why has neurologist/brain warfare expert Dr. James Giordano, who in one of his public lectures described a covert scenario for creating a fake pandemic inside the United States, not been issued a subpoena to testify under oath and face questions inside the United States Congress?
f) Do you believe the explanation for widespread apathy/ignorance with regard to legal accountability for COVID mRNA injection mass murder crimes can be largely attributed to already-launched, covertly-run, global neurowarfare operations, – infamously described by the aforementioned James Giordano, when Giordano coined the term: “The Brain is the Battlefield of the Future”?
g) How and why is it that transhumanism, technocracy, central bank digital currency slavery (the elimination of cash), synthetic biology, neurowarfare etc. are not the most discussed topics at workplace water coolers, restaurants and bars, sporting events, church services and similar large public gatherings – such as: inside the American government/Congress, along with legislatures/government institutions inside nations all across the Earth?
and, finally … H): What personal spiritual knowledge gives you good reason to remain optimistic that this generation will take right action in response to such a truly-wicked agenda challenge, and maintain Hope for future generations on Earth?
Re the failures of corporate media: In the 70s we had more than 200 media companies. Last I looked we had 6, & 2 of those owned by the same company. These are publicly held companies, but largest shareholders name the board of directors & it’s they who pick CEO, managing editors, etc. You will oft hear that advertising dollars control media, but really media companies are controlled the way all large corps are controlled– thru Bd of Directors. ie, TPTB– the billionaires who want most of us dead.
Explanation for apathy: ill health in gen’l including the brain. Toxins in food & water. A really important one: fluoride in water(also in those little plastic bottles of “pure” water).
Fluoride does much harm including it lowers thyroid, causes thyroid resistance. Modern medicine insists that TSH is an infallible measure of whether one has enough thyroid hormone; but this is false. Further, when T4 is measured to monitor level of T4 in the blood, our lab tests are unable to distinguish between real T4 and fake T4, wherein at least one of the iodine atoms of T4 has been replaced by fluoride. Finally almost everyone is deficient in iodine. Net result extremely widespread hypothyroidism which produces lethargy, obesity, heart disease, etc, etc.
Authorities on this: Mark Starr’s book Type 2 Hypothyroidism.
I forget the author of Iodine, Why You Need It.
Re the next pandemic See Jon Fleetwood’s substack. He’s been reporting for years on MANY labs worldwide engaged in bird flu gain of function, development of “vaccines” for it by the same entities doing the gain of function. Also there’ve been at least two rehearsals.
Why would they bother when governments just have to announce a pandemic and give away fancy dress masks to get everyone queuing up for a dodgy shot in the arm?
What does a victory look like?
How can it be achieved?
What is the purpose of advertising?
Is modern “work” necessary for the economy?
How far back does the arrangement of each/every institution being “in lockstep” with one another and the regimes will, go?
Is the expectation of justice in the human realm/the natural world itself a psyop?
Now that The USA has lost enthusiasm for its USNATO strategy to wear-down
Russia by fighting Russia to the last Ukrainian, will NATO open a second front,
fighting Russia to the last Finn, using a false flag as catalyst ?
UK etc need The War to wear-down Russia to continue. There’s still too much
in the welfare budget that the deserving billionaires hunger for. UK etc need a
false flag so they can militarise their countries. Do you think the false flag will
occur this side of Christmas Day ? Thank You…
I’d like to hear Mr Knightly talk about modern media, The Guardian and foreign influence.
1) Are viruses real?
2) Who wrote “Shakespeare”, and why?
The answer to both is that all the world’s a stage.
And reality is just a story we collectively tell ourselves/agree upon…which begs the question: who writes the story?
The hive mind, within which we are all but firing neurones, whose motivations are ultimately a mystery to us?
The story writes itself. Because the story happened, and some bitch just noticed it factually happened, and sat down and wrote it
Answer to Q2 – Dennis McCarthy: Thomas North: The Original Author of Shakespeare’s Plays
Also: https://sirthomasnorth.com/
The answer to question 2 is (with 99% certainty – the evidence for it is voluminous, very high-quality) Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford.
Nope. Thomas North.
Point Two: Ask Doctor Who, The Fourth (he spoke good English).
A rose by any other name…
If your country has been taken over by a foreign entity (that doesn’t say so) what can you do about it.
Nothing.
They write the rules.
They have the guns.
Stop calling it your country and take it back (but from/for whom and what?).
Should we, at this stage, not assume that the entity has taken over all societies on earth?
Why Can’t We Stop This Monster? (Bill Gates)
“Researchers funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation have engineered an entirely new version of poliovirus—and data from their own clinical trial confirm that nearly every baby in Bangladesh who received the experimental vaccine went on to shed the lab-made virus into the environment, effectively becoming new spreaders of the disease.”
—Clinical Infectious Diseases,–Oxford U Press
Polio vaccines have already caused hundreds of infections across Africa, triggered 80% of infants to shed live virus that mutated into strains causing 828% more paralysis than wild polio, and even sparked a fresh outbreak in Papua New Guinea confirmed by the WHO.
https://jonfleetwood.substack.com/p/gates-funds-creation-of-new-poliovirus
Is this about “outbreaks” or about vaccine induced disease?
Just one example of many:
A 1950 report in The Lancet describing a poliomyelitis outbreak in Australia observed a relationship between paralytic polio and prior pertussis vaccination, and a “considerable increase in the severity of the paralysis in the last inoculated limbs of those children under three who received an injection…within thirty-five days of the onset of poliomyelitis.”
A survivor of the outbreak who learned of the Lancet paper discovered that the report had been buried due to “fears of a backlash against immunisation.”
vaccine-produced polio of course.
If the medium is the message (McLuhan), is the message of the digital (c)age a warning that it’s humans or machines?
Good one. Has the Industrial Revolution been a success, or have “we” largely traded slavery to manual labour for slavery to machines?
Personally, I’ve never wrapped my noodle around McLuhan’s famous quote.
To be frank, I’ve never read, “Understanding Media”, finding the quote too nonsensical – to bother. Perhaps I misunderstand the context?
The medium – leaf, bone, stone, clay, papyrus, canvas, marble, newsprint, celluloid – into which humans have painted and etched shapes and symbols, is a vehicle of transcription and communication.
The messages embedded in symbols pressed into clay tablets has been translated into what has been termed linear-a and linear-b cuneiform. In the case of the ancients, clay was the medium at hand to communicate a message already formulated in the breath of the mind. The Epic of Gilgamesh is still the Epic of Gilgamesh, whether it is pressed into clay with a reed stylus or hammered out on a sheet of A4 with a typewriter.
We attribute meaning to the symbols. The medium doesn’t figure much in the equation.
Am I wrong here, or is McLuhan full of hot medium?
McLuhan essentially said that the nature of the dominant media of the day (radio, TV) determines its politics. Which is actually a profound insight.
Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Franco, Churchill rose to power in the era of ‘radio’. Where families gathered around the wireless to hear ‘the voice’.
Some thrived politically when radio was dominant but not when TV took over its mantle. Nixon vs JFK being one such example, where the visual took precedence (Nixon looking like a sweaty pig in comparison to JFK).
Similarly the Internet is full of html clickable links, which cultivate distraction. Ever noticed how hard it is to read an overly lengthy Internet article when compared to a book?
The Epic of Gilgamesh can be written, relayed verbally over the radio, or part of an Internet article littered with clickable links. Each would be experienced differently
”The orchestration of press radio and television to create a continuous, lasting and total environment renders the influence of propaganda virtually unnoticed precisely because it creates a constant environment”. Jacques Ellul.
Is there a possibility that Mr Putin is related to Mr Ras Putin? If so, what might be the purpose of his relative having a senior position in the Russian government?
Will the current AI boom end with a bust? “CEO of IBM is an Indian, Arvind Krishna. He recently warned that the US adventures in AI may never become profitable because of the huge costs involved in developing the Data centres and associated infrastructure in energy and water required.” https://boomfinanceandeconomics.substack.com/p/trump-reads-boom-washingtons-delusion
Is Trump an actor? (Just joking)
If Adolf H.s’ NSDAP party was really Nationalist what was his German army doing in Nord Africa or Ukraine?
If NATO was really North Atlantic why are Pakistan or Saudi Arabia official allies now? Or Turkey a full member?
NATO – North Atlantic Terrorist Organisation.
A paradox resolved?:
The ‘immovable object’ is mass madness, or wilful ignorance.
The ‘irresistable force’ is greed.

More than 50 years since the last ‘moon landing by mankind’ when and how do you think it will be officially revealed that they were faked, as the passage of time and the great advances in technology has to suggest they were? And where will that revelation leave the media, political and scientific class who have for half a century almost unanimously being assuring us they were genuine, as well as the reputation of the United States as a nation?
John Hamer in his book, The Falsification of History – Our Distorted Reality, has a whole chapter on the fraud of moon landings and space flights, and goes into why they were orchestrated, which is probably the most interesting part of this fraud.
Is war in the Pacific inevitable?
https://dissidentvoice.org/2025/12/australia-a-us-vassal-state-in-a-peripheral-sphere-of-influence/
Are financial meltdowns orchestrated for the benefit of the Turds at the top or are they indicators of a system in chaos?
Entirely depends on if one is juggling with the right or left hand.
Whatever happened to the promise of the internet and the democratization of politics?
And if a follow-up question is allowed:
Do you think it’s too late?
Heaven is a place with no war or politics, and its not to late.
IMA Q&A
Although I can see how most of the major world events fit into the ultimate technocratic agenda, I am still uncertain as to why Brexit was made to happen.
Basically, how has Brexit moved the bar towards total control? Which parties have benefited from it and for what purpose, and how does this purpose fit with the agenda?
Maybe I am missing something here, but aside from creating chaos and blame Brexit for said chaos, I can’t see other more substantial reasons. Would you mind chipping in your views on it?
The Banks in The City of London wanted us out of the EU so they were kept safe from the interference of the ECB. TCoL is quite a powerful player dontchaknow.
Yes, Benjamin, had something to do w City of London banking wishing to preserve its banking status, investments, etc in China, among other things.
The Euro cannot be joined unless there is a vote. The UK citizens do not have a vote in the City of London.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2gvvOiZ0RqU
Richard Werner on why the lack of a democratic vote prevents the UK from joining the EU.
The people who voted for it voted for it to get the immigrants out. Which is only natural. England has too many immigrants. Way too many. And it fucks everything up.
But somehow Brexit didn’t end up getting rid of the immigrants like it was supposed to. Fancy that.
Merely a divide-and-conquer stage play?
This is going to be so fun.
Have any of you seen any proof of ‘space’ beyond low orbit, (the ceiling is moving, not us), controlling who by who.
?
Different hemispheres, different seasons.
Cyclones and anti cyclones.
Round sun, round moon, round planets.
Magnetic North and South.
More rain at the equator.
Etc, etc, etc.
Flat we ain’t.
Different hemispheres, different seasons.
Cyclones and anti cyclones.
The directions of rotation of these temporary systems are entirely explainable with known and existing phenomena called Kelvin Waves which do not require the Coriolis Effect. Indeed, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has verified Kelvin Waves to occur during cyclone development, and now uses them in their early warning systems[2].
“Prevailing Winds” and “Trade Winds” are the world’s large permanent wind systems which put the ocean systems into motion. When we look at the permanent wind and ocean systems of the world, we find the counter-clockwise rule of the Northern Hemisphere and the clockwise rule of the Southern Hemisphere to be untrue. Earth’s large permanent wind and ocean systems are rotating in a manner contrary to the alleged Coriolis Effect.
Round sun, round moon, round planets.
How can you be so certain?
In the documentary “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon,” you can watch official leaked NASA footage showing Apollo 11 astronauts Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong and Michael Collins, for almost an hour, using transparencies and camera-tricks to fake shots of a round Earth!
Over the years NASA has twice changed their story regarding the shape of the Earth. At first they maintained Earth was a perfect sphere, which later changed to an “oblate spheroid” flattened at the poles, and then changed again to being “pear-shaped” as the Southern hemisphere allegedly bulges out as well.
Magnetic North and South.
The so-called “South Pole” is simply an arbitrary point along the Antarctic ice wall marked with a red and white barbershop pole topped with a metal ball-Earth. This ceremonial South Pole is admittedly and provably NOT the actual South Pole, however, because the actual South Pole could be demonstrably confirmed with the aid of a compass showing North to be 360 degrees around the observer.
Since this feat has never been achieved, the model remains pure theory
Since the North Pole and Antarctica are covered in ice and guarded “no-fly” zones, no ships or planes have ever been known to circumnavigate the Earth in North/South directions. The only kind of circumnavigation which could not happen on a flat-Earth is North/Southbound, which is likely the very reason for the heavily-enforced flight restrictions.
The fact that there has yet to be a single verified North/South circumnavigation of Earth serves as standing proof the world is not a ball.
On the Gleason’s map North is shown at the centre of a flat plane(t), with South going off in all directions away from the magnetic pole (“North”).
If compass needles were actually drawn to the North pole of a globe, the opposing “South” needle would actually be pointing up and off into outer-space.
More rain at the equator …
… have to do with the permanent wind and ocean systems.

Note that there is also an entirely different theory of how the flat earth model may work found here: (Narration begins after the 5 min. mark).
I try to keep on the lookout for possible truths, always allowing new information in, where it difficult for us human beings to scientifically prove or observe first-hand what the truth may be…. We’re being lied to by the mainstream on so many levels. Keep that in mind when blindly following spinning globe earth theory.
Then that begs the questions:
What’s the point/strategy of calling it a sphere if it isn’t?
What’s on the other side of the plane? Elephants all the way down?
Methinks Eric is an opportunist.
An anti science priest.
Maybe the Universe, like ‘God’, is a mystery we all get to under-stand when we’re dead.
BTW, ‘Summer in July throughout most of the Earth’?
Okay then, I’ll plant some tomatoes next May here in Southern Australia and see what happens. But I won’t be holding my breath.
As far as I know the North Pole is made up of ice, while the South Pole is mostly ice covered land.
Circumnavigation would be a bit tricky.
More than a ‘bit tricky’ Johnny, as there is no ‘continent of Antarctica’. (It is actually the Anti-arctic, the ice wall perimeter enclosing our plane(t).
I’m guessing you haven’t delved into how seasons on flat earth work. Let’s stop this. You are clearly as much of a believer in the mainstream story of globe earth, as others are in the mainstream story of religion, farm animals, safe & effectives, etc.
My oldest daughter is a Flat Earther and, unfortunately, a Christian as well.
No matter, she’s happy.
I’ve skimmed some of Eric’s work, but when I look up I see a round moon and sun.
Did the Earth get special treatment or are we living on a disc?
Eric’s probably made a tidy living from his theories.
Another opportunist just like the priests and mullahs?
I’ll ask again: What’s the advantage, monetary or otherwise, of a spherical Earth, to the Turds who rule?
And what of the lone sailors who have claimed to circumnavigate the Earth from West to East?
We’re they sailing in circles.
I’m still a bit skeptical too but to me it’s a fascinating topic. What initially sold the plane earth to me is the lack of earth curvature as has been proven numerous times through scientific experiments and based on the figures given by NASA – i.e. circumference and then the calculation of how much curvature should occur at a given distance. There does not seem to be any curvature!
Another illogical feature of the ball earth theory is that oceans cling to the sides and “down under” of the globe. Globe adherents try to explain it with either miniscus formation of water in a glass or with gravity. The former always requires a container for the slightly curved miniscus to form but water otherwise never curves around anything; it’s always level – hence its use in carpenters’ levels.
The latter theory that gravity can keep oceans stuck to the ball earth, even “down under” is also illogical. Butterflies can fly off the earth with ease despite gravity but whole oceans are stuck to the earth “down under” ?
Many other illogical phenomena in the globe earth theory.
Oh, shoot! The picture would not post above.
It does seem illogical, but the moon and the sun appear to be spherical. Why not Earth?
There’s no up or down (under) in space. North, South, East and West are irrelevant once you leave Earth.
aUStralia is no more ‘down under’ than Iceland.
Gravity theory and/or gravity waves are still not fully understood by scientists. The same applies to light. Is it a wave or a particle?
Is the mystery revealed when we go the place we were before we ex-IS-ted?
Veri Tas: Just to point out one of the errors in your challenge to the globe presentation: You find it illogical that whole oceans are stuck to the earth “down under”. You’ve forgotten that gravity is an attraction AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH, so that gravity is not any less “down under.” In fact it isn’t even more “down under” than any other part of the earth. You’ve forgotten that the earth– like the other planets– is spinning.
Re your butterfly reservation: You can lift Newton’s apple (or a handful of ocean water); that doesn’t abrogate gravity.
We have telescopes & can verify the paths of other planets around the sun & the fact that they are globes. Flat earth cannot explain our path around the sun or the seasons.
If you are truly interested in the subject, actually look up the science; however, if does require math. You might start here

‘Page does not exist’
I dont think space is visible, planets and debris yes, space, probably not.
Is it so beyond the realm of reasonable interest to have a continuous shot of a craft blasting off until the earth is full frame? Put it beyond doubt.
While we’re at it I’d like a continuous video of Antarctica dissected from coastline to coastline with the pole as the only RVP.
Antarctica is constantly moving and shaping upwards and outwards.
Where can I get a replacement for my OffGuardian crossword winners mug? The handle snapped off mine after about 3 cuppas and I still miss it!
Aww that’s sad! I think the drop shipping company might well have given a replacement if it’d happened sooner, but alas I think it’s been too long now!
Here’s our shop address, if you’d care to grab a replacement! You could get two, for redundancy 😀
https://shop.off-guardian.org/

So this is what you (media and reader) spend all your time on.
Eternal discussions about a mug, who own the mug the hen or the chicken, how the handle went off too early, who should repair it or get a new.
In the most critical moment of our world history, 5 minutes before midnight, and just when we needed you both, needed your support to avoid WWIII.
No smiley! 🙁 .
Dude! seriously take a time out. Out of all the hundreds of articles I have read and thousands of comments this is the very first time I have seen an OffG mug mentioned. Yet you refer to one comment as “spend all your time on” FFS take a chill pill and re-align your chakra man..!!
Sorry to hear that, Simon. The Christmas mugs were special editions and only 7 ever existed, so you can’t buy a replacement – but I can make and order one specially for you, which I am happy to do.
We didn’t keep a record of the addresses, though, so drop an email to us with a reminder of your address, and I’ll try to get your replacement prize to you before the end of the year.
Merry Christmas!
