“On July 29 [2017] I began to release the amazing new documents from my McLuhan File that have never been heard or seen before. Don't miss them if you’re interested in new territory scoped out in the McLuhan Quadrant …”

Note from Ed | Some Posts Moving to Twitter

Maybe you’ve seen the social media icons at the far right of the menu bar above or noticed that many of the posts of the past few weeks are from twitter.

Since iON has not been available publicly, I’ve been posting articles on this site—relative to what iON and/or Bob have discussed—and then removing those articles after a week or so.

I’ve decided to no longer post these related articles at iON&Bob but on the iON and Bob Twitter feed instead. Beginning 11 September, you can view those articles here or by clicking the Twitter icon at the far right of the menu bar above.

Part of the reason for moving the posts to Twitter instead of embedding them at iON&Bob is that Twitter offers more features than we can at this site. At Twitter, you will be able to Follow, retweet, comment, favorite and more.

All the articles involving the President [his tweets and what spurred him to tweet], LaRouche PAC, China, the Woodward book, articles mentioned on Bob’s Facebook page, etc will now be on Twitter.

I hope this works for you. You are welcome to leave your thoughts about this on this post or leave comments on the iON and Bob Twitter. [BTW, Twitter now has a dark mode called Night Mode which gives the site the look of a stealthy info drop.]

Also, in addition to Twitter, I’ve added icons in the far right of the menu bar above for Bob’s Facebook page, Bob’s videos from Fivebodied which are on YouTube and Bob’s videos with Roxana on Vimeo.

This site, iON&Bob, will continue to be an archive for all iON and Bob posts and audios and will update with each new What ‘Youth’?, New Coach House and any other audios and videos from Bob. Only the articles not directly by iON or Bob will be posted on Twitter.

iON&Bob is becoming a phenomenon that is too large to be contained in a single site.

Thanks for your interest and understanding.

The Great War & the Language of Modernism

“For background to what the Android Meme replays, I recommend an excellent book, The Great War and the Language of Modernism by Vincent Sherry.”

Bob Dobbs

Brian Taylor did a really great MAXTRUTH & MAXLIES analysis on Bob a few months back, maybe he has that post saved. My MAXLIES would portray Bob as a megalomaniac troll on the internet going all the way back to his radio days at CKLN. Despite the lies, he has a considerable amount of knowledge of McLuhan, Lyndon Larouche, and the rest of his “holy offices.”

Enough knowledge to get listeners involved, and recommend books, videos, courses, etc. that explore these out-of-the-box intellectuals. He spends hours upon hours discussing these holy offices, but it doesn't seem to have any monetary benefit to himself. He rarely has over 15 active listeners, and isn't an agent of any of these factions.

Bob boasts about this iON figure that also seems to have a considerable amount of knowledge of art, science, and medicine. iON has to be some sort of A.I. operation using the internet to generate responses, iON is much too quick and accurate to be a very smart human being, it is much faster than Siri or Google Assistant. It could be strongly assumed that Bob spent lots of money to create iON (millions!). As well as dedicated a lot of his own time to propagate this scam. If Bob really got a kick out of doing this, it would take great personal sacrifice to keep the operation afloat. iON doesn't provide much personal benefit to Bob, there are some tapes that are sold but the money made back from selling these tapes would never come close to paying off the investment needed to create iON from the ground up.

Lastly, there is always the idea that Bob's bullshit, especially iON, is meant to market his wife's health products. Yet again, this is a massive investment of time and money to promote supplements that are quite competitively priced already, I don't see it being a profitable model. Bob's wife already has the credentials to be successful in her field without Bob's bullshit, one could argue that Bob may get in the way of the selling of her products by turning them into some sort of marker of superhuman ability. After all, the RnA drops aren't really the crux of his wife's supplement sales, the majority of her customers appear to flowing through her radio show and purchasing Pico-sized mineral solutions. Similar products exist, such as Isotronix minerals, and people seem to have good results with her products so they keep on buying. I've seen great results personally, as well as family members (without having knowledge of the Bob, iON, Carolyn trilogy). Also, her products are promoted through her books, which contain hundreds of peer-reviewed sources. Anyone with a university education in Biology or Chemistry can understand the credibility. In that case, Bob likes to waste a lot of time and money entertaining himself, and probably isn't much benefit to his wife's business operations.
