Thanks for helping me keep my sanity Caitlin. I was at my mom's the other day fixing her computer once again and as always she has CNN on the TV & there was Blinken & some Ukrainian stooge hyperventilating about Russia this & Russia that. I didn't say a word as I can't compete with the deep self delusion she is in from watching this propaganda BS all day long. Think this is all a carry over from RussiaGate. She called me a Trumper some 5+ years ago when I called BS on RussiaGate. Our relationship has slowly degraded to the point we can't talk politics at all. We always end up yelling at each other. I no longer have the energy to try to get her or anyone else suffering what I call 'neoshitlibism' to pull their heads out & realize most all the death & misery in the world is caused by the new & improved axis of evil known as the USA, KSA, & Israel. There's no nuance. Everything is just black & white to these people and they are blind to the encroaching fascism on our world. One inkling of hope I have is that the CNN's of the world are cratering big time in ratings and many people are moving to independent news as they realize the MSM and the government can't be trusted in any way. It's all part of the imperialist capitalist inverted flat death spin into irrelevance that can't happen fast enough.

I sympathize with your situation; you're not alone in this. The inability and unwillingness to talk politics is probably one of the most deplorable outcomes of the Trump era (I'm not saying he caused this). Is it because of the popularity of social media? The capturing of mainstream news sources by establishment allies? The rise of identity politics? Academia? Smart phone usage during lockdown? The walling-off of groups into their own little protective bubbles unwilling to listen to outside voices to me feels planned, whether it was or not.

There can be no doubt the US has invested heavily in the psychology of mass manipulation, and it has proven effective. One tactic is pushing the envelope: if you can get away with one terrible action, it paves the way for the next. They understand the reluctance of the population to understand, because it is depressing for one thing, and incriminating for another. What good can be said of a country that exempts its military from foreign country prosecution, and state actors from the ICC? And to compound the evil it systematically demonizes, insults and ostracizes world leaders who don't belong to the club. As Caitlin says, this is not about relative evil: it is the US as fountainhead.

Steppenwolf wrote a song 'monster' back in I think 1970 about the inability of America to keep its nose out of other people's business. 'the whole world's gotta be just like us' was a line from the song. This warmongering neocon trait has been around a long time. Great summation BTW.

And who would have thought that Nixon and Vietnam would seem relatively quaint and tame in hindsight? Any Woodward and Bernstein who's alive today is sure as hell online.

The one thing that I cannot understand is how we can't find one media organisation who can tell the truth, one who is prepared to let loose just one journalist to analyse some of the questions raised by people like Caitlin. The rules that the media feel that they must subscribe to must be so powerful as to create this totally restrictive environment. One can understand the NYT, the newspaper of false record, being controlled so easily for so long. Who are the shareholders? 28 million shares owned by BlackRock and Vanguard. Try making a comment against vaccination in that newspaper.

To add to this, I saw a photo of the CIA operation in Langley. It is so large that one would require a bus service to get from the car park to the office. What do all those people do and what is the cost to the American people to keep this operation functioning and when added to all their on-site facilities throughout the world, committing crimes that we can only imagine. Billions per year.

I can never forget Abu Ghraib without thinking of Nazism. I always thought that WWII was waged to eliminate Nazism. I can never think of the recall of the US fighter planes in 1967 to save the bombed USS Liberty without thinking of a now subservient USA, (the tail), wagged every minute of every day by the Israeli dog.

One also remembers the disposal of thousands of tons of bombs dropped over Laos and Cambodia by US planes as they flew back to their bases from Vietnam. During that period 8 million tons of bombs were dropped, double the quantity in the whole of WWII, cluster bombs still killing children today. Who gave them permission to create this long term danger to an innocent country?. Who allowed them to be responsible for the deaths of over 500,000 children in Iraq through the imposition of sanctions which affected medical supplies, now being imposed against Russia on this day, with all of the world’s tame sycophantic countries in agreement.

Who was it that appointed the USA as the unwanted (and corrupt) world sheriff. Such big-headed arrogance has become the norm, supported by all the little dependent and grovelling sycophants like Canada, the UK and Australia, itching now to get to Ukraine to win a few more points from the Yankee masters.

What a world climate

There truly is a DEEP STATE, but sadly Trump is a part of it, because if he were not, and was actually any kind of real outsider threat to them, they would have done the same to him that they did to JFK and his brother just 5 years later. The DEEP STATE doesn't actually care if people wake up to its existence, as long as no one ever DOES anything about it. That is the key to understand here. I actually think Trump talking about the DEEP STATE was actually part of their game plan, to in essence openly admit that it exists and CONTROLS Everything and that we ARE Total Slaves to it!!! Real Resistance to it Must Begin and Get Organized!!! We can start by consuming a LOT less. The West, and especially the U.S. Corporate Empire depend on constant over consumption of everything. I read somewhere a couple of years ago, that to maintain the current rate of consumption, we would need 5 Planet Earths!!! So boycott their latest high tech gadgetry, boycott their sporting events (modern day gladiators in the aren to entertain and distract us slaves), etc, etc., etc.!!! BOYCOTT AND RESIST!!! WORK TOGETHER (COOPERATION) WITH OTHERS AND STOP COMPETING (THEY WANT US TO KEEP COMPETING AGAINST EACH OTHER LIKE A BUNCH OF SEWER RATS FIGHTING EACH OTHER OVER THE TINY CRUMBS THEY DROP TO US, INSTEAD OF US BEING UNITED AGAINST THEM)!!!

If you are wondering why they would actually have someone like Trump admit there is a DEEP STATE, it is simple, it is a form of psychological warfare that they use against the public to say, in essence that it does exist and we are total slaves to it, and their is nothing we can do about it to demoralize and weaken us, so that we won't unite to fight against them!!!

It's been a blessing to read some of your recent articles. It's so difficult nowadays to constantly here garbage news agencies spewing garbage being fed by our government and the Pentagon knowing the corruption they continue to feed us with their current track record.

I spent 22 years working for our a defense company that recently changed their hundred year rule defining equality to equity and thus telling me I'm now an oppressor and am a racist. They're evil board members all end up working at the Pentagon which now pushes equity. They're primary concern is to globalize by conformance to ESG and the Great Reset in order to get contracts even from China now. After they pushed VACCINATIONS I retired.

I'm sick of all the lies and sick of the corruption they use to attempt to hold world wide power. The US/UK model of using the false narrative of spreading Democracy when we don't have one at home makes me sick.

Thanks again for your writings.

Another great summation of our current situation. I'm amazed our politicians and media types don't self-combust out of some sheer built-in anti-hypocritical overload.

What I've run up against in conversations is this idea that people and nations have always fought and struggled for power, conquest, and control. And while the US has its problems, it beats the authoritarianism of both Russia and China, so we should back America's bid to remain at the top of the heap. This view just so happens to align with elite's power aspirations.

I don't share this Calvinist/Darwinian view of the world, but seeing past that is going to be a tough sell for those who do, and how many of them are out there?

But the US does not appear to be staying on top of the heap. It has driven its two major foreign opponents together, and its own culture is deteriorating to the point where most of its constituents don't trust its leadership or government. The NATO encroachments in Ukraine have been insane in terms of the Realpolitik which is its dominant principle.

The unattainable inevitably results in an embarrassing messy execution, which, unfortunately, tends to encourage rather then mitigate the attempt.

Just think of how much EVIL AND TREACHERY was being planned by the West while the idiotic SLAVE public in the West was being distracted by the Super Bowl and the Olympics!!!

Expand full comment

The way you get through to people is to open up their eyes to how EVIL the concept of COMPETITION is. Competition ALWAYS brings out the WOSRT in people, whereas COOPERATION ALWAYS brings out the BEST in people!!! That is why the U.S. and West are always saying we have to COMPETE with other countries, but countries like Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela, etc., are always talking of COOPERATING with other countries!!! This WILL eventually break through their narrative of COMPETE, COMPETE, COMPETE!!! It is for this reason, I despise sports, especially here in the U.S. where sports have corrupted everything, even the schools and churches!!! My father taught me many years ago when I was a boy, that modern day athletes are nothing more than GLADIATORS in the arena, used by the EVIL CORRUPT SYSTEM to entertain and distract us SLAVES, so that we will never unite and RISE UP And FIGHT Against Them (The EVIL CORRUPT OLIGARCHS AND THEIR SYSTEM)!!!

**************************************

“Mass-scale psychological manipulation is a science that's still advancing. The government agencies who use that science would have every reason to test out mass psyops for no other reason than to learn and gather data to advance the science. It's not like you can test it in a lab.

I mean, we know for a fact that they've already done this. We just don't know how far it goes.”

**************************************

Yes.

Greetings from Montreal, Canada by the way. Boy did we see some Psy Ops in the last weeks! But we also saw how they largely failed. Now the cat is out of the bag.

In terms of the latest Psy Ops, I did write several pieces recently which present a deep dive into the use of “Behavioural Nudging” and “Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP).” Most of the covid narrative was largely “framed” using these kinds of advanced nudging and NLP techniques, including hypnosis. The techniques are all geared towards triggering what behavioural scientists and social psychologists call “automatic motivations” ie the unconscious mind.

The piece is called “Breaking the Spell: MindSpace, Trance Warfare, and Neuro Linguistic Programming”

https://canadianpatriot.org/2022/01/05/breaking-the-spell-mindspace-trance-warfare-and-neuro-linguistic/

Interestingly, right after completing the article above and getting it published, something even more overt was brought to my attention by a keen observer. President Biden's recent January 6th speech made direct use of hypnotic techniques, including the use of ''anchors,'' ''reframing,'' and trance-formation. The statement said:

"The Bible tells us that we shall know the truth and the truth shall make us free. We shall know the truth. Well, here is the truth about January 6, 2021. Close your eyes. Go back to that day. What do you see?

Rioters rampaging, waving for the first time inside this Capitol, the confederate flag that symbolized the cause to destroy America, to rip us apart. Even during the Civil War, that never, ever happened. But it happened here in 2021."

The speech tells people to close their eyes and then ''imagine.'' That's how NLP trances and visualizations start. Once the person closes their eyes and ''imagines,'' they are made to describe a past memory, how it feels, the sights, the sounds. By doing that, it allows for an altered state to emerge, where you can actually feel those feelings in your body. The incantation was also preceded by the words ''the Bible'' and ''Truth.'' ''Truth'' was repeated three times in quick succession. A series of vague but violent images ensued.

Part of the hypnotic technique is the use of ''artfully vague'' language (explained in the piece above) and images where a series of sentences are stacked with ambiguities. That helps to allow the patient, or target, to feel that the conclusions they arrive at are their own, solidifying them into the ''deep structures'' of the psyche.

The article explains exactly how and why so many people not only became ''spellbound'' by the initial pandemic public messaging incantations, but also why and how they continued to have their ''automatic motivations'' steered in real-time, with the help of various ''anchors,'' ''cues,'' ''priming'' etc.

For example, while pretty much every expert was forced to admit masks aren’t effective at stopping the spread of the virus (in the same way a fence isn’t effective at stopping mosquitos from flying through it) the reality is that from the standpoint of behavioural nudging and NLP, masks function as very powerful “cues.” That’s why authorities were so emphatic about the masks, even when the “science” wasn’t there. Just imagine if people everywhere weren’t wearing masks and everyone was just walking around normally. The magic of the narrative would fade almost instantly. So the masks were very effective and important, but for Behavioral science reasons.

However, there is much more systematic and sophisticated use of this stuff across the board, going far beyond just the covid-19 narrative.

And it's actually a stretch to say that Russia breached international law

International "Law" is what the U.S. and West say it is!!! I get so damn sick and tired of the constant use of the term "Rule of Law" in the West!!! It is Very Pharisaical, just like the Pharisees in the Old Testament, with their CRUEL the Law IS what they say it is rule (and they were always conveniently exempt from it)!!!

Here’s the story Biden would like to tell about all this during his 2024 presidential campaign:

“Corn Pop Putin was a bad dude. And he ran a bunch of bad boys. I was the life guard at the Imperial pool, and I told him to get off the diving board or I’d come up there and drag him off. Well, he said to me ‘I’ll meet you in Ukraine.’ So I asked Tony Blinken what to do and Tony gave me this six-foot chain and some economic sanctions and some Stinger missiles and he told me to tell Corn Pop Putin ‘You may cut me man, but I’ll wrap this chain around your head.’ So I took that six-foot chain and economic sanctions and Stinger missiles and I went to Ukraine to meet him, and old Corn Pop Putin was waiting for me with with a straight razor, 180,000 men, a couple thousand tanks, and 10,000 nuclear bombs….” But I didn’t back down. I grabbed some short-range nuclear missiles and I put them in his neighborhood and I put a big Imperial military base next to his house. And old Corn Pop Putin just folded up that rusty razor and he apologized and went back home.”

I will laugh if it is Putin telling the story of how JUSTICE was served upon the West, and how Russia checkmated the Evil Corporate Empire known as the U.S.A. and its puppet NATO!!!

The most important thing to keep in mind currently is that Russia has just started its push towards a new global security order. Just started. It won't be stopping until it's satisfied. The conditions are out there in the open, published last December.

So the West will have to back down or it's Big War. I think it's the latter. Too much historical proof supporting it.

PRIDE goeth before a FALL, and the U.S.A. has been puffed up with ARROGANT NARCISSISTIC PRIDE since the day it was founded in 1776!!! The U.S.A. has two and a half centuries of GENOCIDE, THEFT OF NATIVE AMERICAN LANDS, TERRORISM, WARS FOR PROFIT, ASSASINATIONS, CIA COUPS, CRIPPLING ECONOMIC SANCTIONS, ETC., ETC., ETC. AGAINST OTHER COUNTRIES TO ANSWER FOR!!!

The West knows there’s nothing it can do against Russia’s new generation of weapons. All their ABM, THAD, and overall Prompt Global Strike were made obsolete when Russia revealed its new generation of weapons. And it would be a war against BOTH Russia and China.

The WEF Borg Cube is genuinely screwed.

I see our gas prices are going to go way up as a consequence of our administration's arbitrary application of some cherry-picked "national principles." And here I thought America's never-ending sanction regime was there to put the pinch on the bad guys. Anyone who mules at this is a Russian sympathizer and a friend of tyrants everywhere. For those who loudly complained about Trump being a national disgrace -- which he often was -- they should check out Kamala Harris schooling our European allies on European history. Cringe warning! I guess we can go ahead and add racist and misogynist to my other charges.
