It’s interesting.

Actually, it’s absolutely fascinating, at least to me, to watch the mind-bending unfold in real-time. Just yesterday, I was enjoying a conversation with an adept individual who did a masterful job of pointing out many of the great ironies of our time:

* Liberals declaring that free speech is a “free-for-all hellscape,” that it was “weaponized free speech” that caused the holocaust.

* Liberals demanding more funding for more war, essentially signing a death warrant for millions more Ukrainian and Russian young men.

* Liberals stomping their feet, protesting, and doing everything they can to stop the gross degrees of government waste, fraud, and corruption from coming to light.

The list could go on, but the point is easily made: every position being taken right now appears to be precisely backwards to everything liberalism used to stand for.

Conservatives beware.

It’s always easier to point out flaws in someone else’s thinking, than it is to examine and identify potential flaws in our own. It’s just a human thing we must acknowledge.

In reality, there are a great many people who will never examine their own thinking, because they lack the maturity and awareness to do so. We might make a generous assumption and say that perhaps 80% of the population lacks the requisite faculty and inclination to thoroughly question themselves, leaving roughly 20% of people who at least have the capacity—though whether they use it or not is another question.

From the angle of psychological warfare (aka psyops), the 80% are basically sitting ducks; they are low-hanging fruit that are easy to pick off and push into accepting any given narrative. Again, I’m being generous here.

Considering the effectiveness of the COVID-19 psyop, it would appear the percentage of people susceptible to being ensnared in abject insanity is well over 90%.

Thus, for those perpetrating the psyops, their target audience would be the 10-20% of people who, in theory, might have the wherewithal to remain independent and critical, as opposed to being assimilated into whatever narrative is being pushed.

In other words, some minds are more resistant to military-grade memes than others. Remember that in the context of memetic warfare, DARPA and the Deep State have the ability to create memes that guarantee the propagation of an idea—but saying that for the umpteenth time today, another angle of reflection emerges.

Properly understood, scientifically speaking, a meme is a “quantum of information.” With that fresh in mind, it’s this little tidbit of information that gives rise to the infectious ideas that then, quite predictably, spread throughout the population.

First comes the info, then comes the idea.

That’s critical, and it’s easy to grasp by imaging yourself going for a walk in the woods. As you are walking along, your mind wanders this way and that, thinking about everything and nothing all at the same time. Think of this as unstructured thought, it’s just the mind doing what the mind does, endlessly.

All at once you smell something. It’s a sweet smelling flower. As you continue walking, the scent grows stronger, and you begin to hear the loud buzzing of honey bees—but you still can’t see the bees or blossoms that they are buzzing on.

Your mind now has a quantum of information, the scent and the sounds, other sensory inputs, and an unfathomable number of mental constructs (cumulated through life experience, education, etc.) that it uses to generate ideas.

The mind uses these ideas to form a story.

There’s a cracking of a branch in the woods up ahead and your heart starts to pound. You remember stories about how bears like honey, and all at once you know you’re not alone. Your nice idea about taking a picture of the fuzzy bees harvesting beautiful blooms immediately gets scrapped.

Now you’re thinking about finding a sharp stick and a tree to climb.

Your mind is racing as you break off a dead branch and climb a nearby tree. You might begin thinking about living to tell the heroic tale of how you defended yourself against the ferocious bear, when all at once, there’s new information.

From your perch in the tree, you see a fellow nature lover down below, some 20 yards away, crashing through the brush with a camera, trying to get a good shot of the beautiful blossoms on a wild lilac tree, buzzing with bees. There is no bear in sight.

Startled by the sound of you climbing a tree, they look up and shout, “Well hey there, I didn’t expect to see anyone else out here! What are you doing in that tree?” Relieved and slightly embarrassed, your mind spins up a story: “Oh, yeah, I could smell the lilacs and heard the bees, and I thought I’d get a great aerial shot from up here!”

Such are the wiles of the mind.

Moral of the story: first comes the info, then comes the ideas, and a self-justifying story always ensues.

Let’s zoom out.

Informational warfare works by hijacking these built-in mechanisms of the mind. The truth is, we are all susceptible. We are hardwired to process information and create stories that help us make sense of things. It’s the intentional usurpation of this process, wherein the powers that be or some other external force aims to “make sense of things” for us, that we must remain constantly aware of.

How can liberals have been so easily duped into defending and advocating for positions that run entirely contrary to everything that liberals used to stand for?

They were fed new information. This new information came with new suggestions that planted the seeds of new ideas, which then gave rise to new stories that ultimately justify their complete flip-flop and abandonment of prior convictions.

Like I said at the outset: conservatives beware.

There is new information being circulated through patriotic circles, new suggestions making the rounds, that are meant to give rise to new ideas about what’s happening right now. There is a new story being spun up, and I believe, personally, that this new spin is little more than a massive psyop meant to divide the liberty movement.

The gist is this: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are paving the way for a new technocratic, global digital governance that will ultimately enslave us all.

Some of that should sound familiar, if you have been with me, because I’ve been calling out this nefarious push towards global digital governance for years, pointing out that the path to this techno-dystopian hell (Future Earth) is paved with good intentions.

The twist in this story, is that it’s Trump and Musk who are ushering this in, and that it’s patriotic Americans who have been duped into cheering them on.

I don’t buy it, but the narrative has been so meticulously crafted, it must be addressed head on. I was introduced to this narrative when a good friend shared a pair of articles written by Erik Wikstrom, linked here:

* Checkmate: The Triumph of Technocracy — How Trump, Elon & the Tech Elite are paving the way for a Brave New World - And what it means for all of us

* The Triumph of Technocracy | Part 2: The Ultimate Deception — How the Pandemic Sorted, Profiled, and Set Up the Resistance for the Perfect Trap

Both pieces are well-written and rather lengthy, giving them a feel of thorough thinking that threads in many assumptions that instantly appeal to patriots. This type of intentional disarming is common in psychological warfare.

Consider the opening paragraph of the first piece:

“I invite you to temporarily set aside your preconceptions about how the world works. I know this may run counter to everything you believe, everything you think you know about what's happening in our world. The truth goes much deeper than the surface-level chaos we see in the headlines. I sincerely hope I'm wrong about this analysis – in fact, I pray that I am. But if I'm even partially correct, we are witnessing one of the most sophisticated power grabs in human history.”

Temporarily set aside your preconceptions—not a bad idea!

This may run counter to everything you believe, everything you think you know about what’s happening in “our world”—sure, question everything, right? That’s a solid precept, but note how this phrase is intended to introduce doubt about what you think about our world.

This is a positioning statement meant to assert dominance in the narrative.

The truth goes much deeper than the “surface-level chaos” we see in the headlines—no s**t Sherlock, thanks for stating the obvious, but why? Why state the obvious? First, to build rapport and indicate we’re on the same team by emphasizing a common refrain in patriotic circles. Second, to prime the truth seeking instinct of hardcore skeptics. The phrase “the truth runs much deeper” is like catnip for a lot of people.

Immediately upon reading the headline, “How Trump, Elon are paving the way for a Brave New World,” many people in the MAGA movement would immediately tune out and dismiss the story—but not all.

That’s not who this article is meant for.

This article is targeting the 10% with new information and suggestions meant to change their perspective on what’s going ...
