"The Waco siege was the siege of a compound belonging to the Branch Davidians, carried out by American federal and Texas state law enforcement, as well as the U.S. military, between February 28 and April 19, 1993. The Branch Davidians were led by David Koresh and were headquartered at Mount Carmel Center ranch in the community of Axtell, Texas, 13 miles (21 kilometers) east-northeast of Waco. Suspecting the group of stockpiling illegal weapons, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) obtained a search warrant for the compound and arrest warrants for Koresh and a select few of the group's members.
The incident began when the ATF attempted to raid the ranch. An intense gun battle erupted, resulting in the deaths of four government agents and six Branch Davidians. Upon the ATF's failure to raid the compound, a siege lasting 51 days was initiated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Eventually, the FBI launched an assault and initiated a tear gas attack in an attempt to force the Branch Davidians out of the ranch. During the attack, a fire caused by Federal agents engulfed Mount Carmel Center. In total, 86 people, 82 of which were innocent died, including David Koresh. "
Daily reminder that you're living in a nightmarish police state.

There's an old saying that every generation thinks it invented sex.
After more than a century of lies, I think likewise, every generation thinks that it invented "alternative media". Especially generations who cannot imagine life without the Internet.
(Same applies as to the JQ, which is really ridiculous.)
In addition to a variety of printed periodicals and publishers of uncensored books, in the 1990s, there were also still some AM radio stations with free speech. I know that some of them were screaming the truth about Waco. There were other "alternative" sources; but I think that "alternative" print and AM radio reached the most people at the time of the Waco massacre.
No, you don't need jewtube and blogs and (((tweets))) and imageboards full of "fashy" talk about "redpills" to get the truth out. The truth has always been out there.
Everything we are talking about was all known and expected and discussed in the "alternative media" in 1993!

>The Davidians imprudently [ >>12425094 ] released the terrorists they had captured and allowed the thugs to collect their own dead and wounded, in expectation that Howell/Koresh and his followers would be accorded a trial, even one before an obviously hostile judge. After some waiting, to permit the jewspapers to dish out some of their canned slime, the massacre began as planned….
