Episode Summary

In this All Saints Day livestream, Carla Sallee Alvarez presents documented evidence of a multi-year conspiracy involving hacking, identity theft, plagiarism, and coordinated attacks against her Christian ministry.

She traces connections between people from her church community, an apologetics program, AI companies, and venture capital funding—all while her communications are actively blocked and her work systematically stolen.

The episode interweaves theological reflection on Ephesians, Wallace Henley’s experience in Nixon’s White House, and the parallels between ancient Ephesian corruption and modern Christian nationalism.

Despite filing multiple police reports and FBI complaints with no action taken, Carla continues documenting the interference in real-time, including stream disruptions that occur when discussing specific companies and individuals.

Is Halloween Demonic? The Truth About All Hallows' Eve from Catholic.com

Is Halloween Demonic? The Truth About Hallows’ Eve

In the early days of the Church, Christians celebrated each martyr’s feast on the anniversary of his death. As the number of martyrs increased over time, though, and because the liturgical calendar can only accommodate a limited number of Christian luminaries in its 365-day cycle, the Church began honoring all martyrs on a single day.

By the later A.D.300s and the early 400s, the Church began to celebrate a feast for all those who had given their life in witness to Christ and his Church. In 609 or 610, Pope Boniface IV consecrated the Pantheon in Rome to the Blessed Virgin Mary and all martyrs, choosing May 13 to honor the martyrs. Pope Gregory III (731-741) extended the feast to include all saints, moving its celebration to November 1, which explains why All Hallows’ Eve is celebrated on October 31, the day before.

Due Diligence Warning to Investors

Timestamp: [01:06:20 – 01:15:00]

  • Didn’t attend Ivy League school; went to community college then Portland State
  • Only philosophy classes before apologetics: elementary logic and business ethics
  • “I think that prepared me better and gave me a more solid foundation than a lot of these so-called experts”

AI Investment Warnings

  • Any company with “AI” should trigger extra due diligence
  • Copyright lawsuits against AI companies consistently won by copyright holders
  • Depth of exploitation and invasiveness with AI not yet fully known to public

Specific Legal Concerns

  • FTC doesn’t ban undisclosed product placement in movies but does on social media/websites
  • Any compensation for promotion must be disclosed
  • Elon Musk’s Twitter: sock puppet accounts creating posts to run ads = undisclosed advertising
  • Auto-clicking through posts to sites = ad fraud
  • Fake accounts are “freaking media channel … spewing nonsense”
  • Ads in games that aren’t obvious: potential FTC violation
  • Games collect data on kids in ways movies can’t: location, posts, communications

  • Someone with userstyle.ai (redirecting to conversion.ai) is part of conspiracy
  • “Definitely actively involved in it still” based on stream interference and last night’s blocking
  • “Have fun explaining that, and they know where to find you, don’t they?”
