How would a Global Conspiracy Work? Part 3
Not only has the process of influencing our behaviour become more effective, it has become faster too. It took decades of propaganda to build a culture that demanded war in 1914.
But that changed as the 20th Century unfolded. Even before the First World War, cinema newsreels were thrilling audiences in Europe and the USA. So when a German U-boat sunk the ocean liner Lusitania in 1915, it was fully exploited as propaganda.
More than half of the 1,995 civilian passengers were drowned in the tragedy. But the story was very useful to the British government. It diverted attention from disastrous defeats in France. There were anti-German riots around the UK. Army recruitment shot up. It was also considered the single most important event that got America into the war 2 years later.
The trouble was, the Lusitania was carrying 173 tons of munitions for the western front. The British government were using civilians as human shields. And the Germans had publicly warned it might be torpedoed. We will never know if the Lusitania was a set-up to get America into the war. What we do know is the power it had over the public mind.
Even the radio on its own was beginning to elicit powerful emotions. For example, Orson Wells broadcast of the ‘War of the Worlds’ in 1938. The news-documentary style of the radio drama convinced many there was a real alien invasion and thousands fled their homes.
By the outbreak of the Second World War, governments around the world had mastered the organs of mass communication. So by 1938, the War Office was confident it would only take a year or so to persuade the British public to fight Hitler.
TV entering our homes was even more of a game changer. TV puts our brains into alpha state quickly, and keeps us there far longer than the cinema. It’s why we watch adverts even though we don’t like them. It’s also why there were cultural battles fought over Hollywood and still are.
Then the brainwashers dream came true. Social media arrived. It places us in deep alpha state. Many spend half their day in front of a screen. It can have addictive properties on a par with crack cocaine. Our brains can therefore be rewired with frightening speed. This is a big reason for the mental health crisis in teenagers and the spread of transgender ideology.
Then there is weapons-grade brainwashing. This is about prolonged activation of our limbic system to produce trauma that allows our beliefs to be completely reversed.
Look at First World War footage of shell-shocked soldiers recovering in hospital. Some dive under their beds when a doctor claps his hands. Weeks spent in ‘flight’ mode under artillery fire, hard wired the duck-and-cover response into the soldier’s brain. Extreme adaption for survival took place. The rational mind no longer works.
During the Korean War, the Chinese used this principle to brainwash US prisoners of war (POWs) into renouncing their country. It involved sequences of torture, sleep deprivation, promised rewards, isolation, arbitrary rules and punishment. Respite only came when discussing the evils of imperialist America. This anchored the new belief in respite from trauma, helping it take root. Such treatment of POWs is outlawed in treaties around the world including the Geneva Convention.
When the ‘Covid crisis’ struck, it all seemed to come together. A century of behavioural control and brainwashing expertise was deployed. Time-honoured principles had already been enhanced with new technology such as fMRI scans which can track our brain’s response to stimuli.
All the principles of persuasion were used, especially trust in authority. There was 24/7 repetition of fear-porn from TV, social media and radio. Our alpha state was exploited and the desired messages forced into our subconscious. Waves of fear triggered our limbic systems. We were placed in isolation while new beliefs were seared into our brains. Respite came only from compliance. The public space compounded the fear and the messaging. Cult-like behaviour followed.
Government, media and opinion forming institutions were already infiltrated, influenced and manipulated. “With or without their conscious cooperation”. For example, at one stage 68 out of 69 members of SAGE came from institutions funded by Bill gates. Just ‘follow the science.’ Dominic Cummings explained how this influencing process worked. “Essentially, what happened is that there was a network of Bill Gates-type people…” (Q1130)
Many MPs, legacy media and politicos in closed communities were already twitter-addicted, group-thinkers, with narcissistic personalities. For them the culture of conformity was already a habit. Virtue signalling had been good training. Transferring it to covid was easy. After all, who doesn’t want to save lives?
So the heavy lifting was done upstream and the beliefs trickled down. Businesses, pubs, clubs, families, friends. A new psychological ecosystem compounded a new set of behaviours. By the end the trickle became a tidal wave. Dr Mattias Dessmet called it mass-formation psychosis. We saw competitive conformity. Competitive hate of outsiders.
So in the name of saving lives, millions were turned away from hospitals. The elderly were forced to die terrified and alone. Doctors called for a dangerous, experimental vaccine to be forced on children. Policeman assaulted people for not wearing masks. They were all immunised against fact and reason. The classic symptom of brainwashing.
Yet there is hope. People are waking up. Once awakened people become immune to the manipulation. Just keep spreading the word. Nature is on our side too. Reality is hitting home and many people know someone damaged by the vaccine. Through trauma, people seek truth. For example Dr John Campbell. He started as a cheer leader for government disinformation and now he warns against the vaccine.
Sympathise with those still under the spell. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking nurses, civil servants or BBC staff were in on it. Most went along because of fear. And there’s a crisis to hook everyone. Many Brexiteers stood firm against BBC propaganda. Yet they swallowed the Covid narrative whole. And many who saw through the Covid lies were waving the Ukrainian flag a few months later.
The true answer is one that the greatest leaders have known. From Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius. To Mahatma Gandhi. Even KGB defectors have explained it and Communist regimes still fear it. It is unchanging because it lies in an understanding of spirituality that has been lost for thousands of years and is now being rediscovered. The only answer to separation is oneness.
