Trouble is … Danny’s alleged actions as depicted in this video, if genuine, conflict (or could be deemed hypocritical) when measured against the general philosophy he claims to promote when vetting potential Patriot Platform recruits or presenting himself publically to the world.
Routinely, he valiantly talks of using Lawfare not Warfare and he states that new recruits, if chosen after what I’d paraphrase as a “rigourous vetting procedure”, should not engage authorities aggressively or violently. Nor should they consume alcohol or act like thugs. He adds that the PP will act swiftly in dealing with those that fail to maintain the values he himself claims to promote.
Danny also cites the benefit of faith and holding Christian values and vocally encourages others to, at least, consider echoing or mirroring such an outlook. And yeah, I wryly acknowledge that such rhetoric could merely serve the purpose of giving credence to particular initiatives or actions the platform may engage in although I would like to believe he was sincere in employing such noble views. And maybe he is in his heart but … well … in his head? Perhaps not so much if this video footage is not some silly (or malicious) AI based hit job ploy to discredit him. Me? I, very much, appreciate the stand he is making and recognise the novel approach he has adopted in holding a bigger, long term objective and, yes, if managed correctly over time, the Patriot Platform could generate itself a massive 5 million vocal contingent of “Current unvoters” and target them politically to use that voting power (and voice) at the ballot box. That’s a really, really clever idea whereas, allegedly, slashing a rigid inflatable boat with a knife while bobbing up and down in the English channel is about as good an idea as videoing such recklessness and making it visible publically. I’m hoping the footage proves to be a fictional AI prank because, otherwise, based on that video evidence, Danny’s actions as depicted suggest he would probably not pass his own Patriot Platform’s vetting procedures.
