In the following days, Rose went into overdrive, claiming that he had been censored by Big Tech and that he was determined to fight back. Whether or not he knew it at the time, his Mayoral campaign had just begun.

In an environment where 5G masts were already being destroyed, and engineers threatened, YouTube took the video down.

Unchallenged by Rose, Icke spun a grand narrative, that the “Covid pandemic” was fake, was really caused by 5G and was a cover for a murderous global cult who were determined to create a fascist state. In the frantic early days of the pandemic, the interview hit a nerve and went viral. So how has Rose managed to craft such a fabricated narrative of success?
