When disaster hits, security isn't optional.
What is fundamental, what is axiomatic, what is absolute, is that every tyrant since the beginning of time, every Hitler, every Mao, every Stalin, every Pol Pot, every Genghis Khan, you name it, Everybody from the beginning of time does not really want to control speech,
doesn't want to control expression, doesn't want to control the press or negative polemics that cast doubt or false light or correct light on some despotic regime.
No.
They want to control thought.
Thought is what they want to control.
They also want self-censorship.
They want you not merely To not say something, but not believe something.
And the quickest way for you to not believe something is to create an impenetrable barrier, some type of a problem, when you even approach the mere reflection of an idea.
Now there's been cognitive infiltration that's been suggested.
We talk about cognitive dissonance.
We talk about the word of my favorite, a crippled epistemology, calling into question your sanity, your ability to think, your ability to rationalize, your mental stability.
Are you okay?
Are you a, and this is the classic, the conspiracy theorist.
I venture to say, Because the word racist and white supremacist has been diluted and used to such an extent that nobody really cares anymore, I submit and I predict that conspiracy theorists will be the N-word before you know it.
That it will be used with such frequency and such application and such anger and disgust and distrust That it will be the worst thing you can possibly say.
That you will go out of your way never to even utter, never to even acknowledge, never even to think, and that's the key, never even to think something within that subject matter, under that rubric, because you don't want to be called a conspiracy theorist.
And consequently, All of your discussions, all of your analyses, all of your review, all of it will be a very simple, tried, true, and safe application of analysis.
No hits, no runs, no errors.
Self-censorship.
Mind control.
Thought control.
Thought paralysis.
Thought imprisonment.
Taking ideas and putting them in solitary confinement.
You will never even, not say it, write it, tweet it, post it, like it.
No, no, no.
You'll never think it.
This is the goal.
And it's happening.
And you have to understand how, and why, and from whom.
But before we do that, first, a word.
From our sponsor.
Now, if you're still considering whether to invest in gold or silver, we have some news.
Noble Gold, one of the sponsors of our show, has just been picked by Consumer Affairs, the rating agency, as the overall number one gold IRA company in the U.S., beating 17 others to the spot.
This didn't happen by accident.
It happens because they're true professionals who know what they're doing, tell their clients what they can and can't do to maximize their returns and minimize their losses.
They're that rarity in today's financial environment.
Honest, caring.
We know the team treats their customers as family.
And by the way...
They're giving away a beautiful one-tenth ounce gold American Eagle proof coin with every qualifying IRA or 401k rollover this month.
You can't go wrong with Noble Gold.
Call the team now at 877-646-5347 to find out more or visit noblegoldinvestments.com.
Without giving you a kind of a running history of where this goes or...
And we're not throwing out terms like cognitive dissonance, cognitive infiltration, names of people that you may not know or may not be familiar with.
Sometimes people do this, I think, in order to create the illusion of a well-thought academic analysis of something.
They say things in order for you to think that.
Wow, this guy knows what he's talking about.
Some people love to cite, and that's okay.
But that's not the purpose of this.
I want to explain to you the framework.
And everything that I'm saying has even been suggested or is currently occurring.
And let's go back to what I said initially.
Every government wants to control what people think.
Everyone.
I don't want you just to be quiet and to foment resentment.
Let's assume I'm some despotic ruler or I'm a nice guy.
You know, nice, there are nice rulers and nice people who say, I don't want people thinking the wrong thing either.
I mean, if you think that any leader ever said, I love dissent.
I love when people come out of the woodwork against me and make fun of me and mock me.
I think that's terrific.
You're out of your mind.
So it's always easier to think of this in terms of some Stalin character, but it's from everyone.
Everyone does this, but it works like this.
First, the most important person in your life growing up, not your parents, Your friends.
Your social setup did more to frame and to craft your ideology, your belief, your morals, your dress, your expression, your looks, your likes, your music, especially when you're a kid.
That social pack That you run with, and that social pact, that agreement, so to speak, kind of like the manifesto of your...
That did more than anything you can imagine.
Social influence is critical.
Parents take too much credit, too much blame for their children, but when social media came along, it was the...
Behaviorists dream come true.
I don't know what you want to...
I've always said I've always wanted to be the...
In my ideal world, I've always wanted to be the...
I guess you'd call it maybe the psychologist general.
You know, there's the attorney general, the surgeon general.
But the psychologist general is somebody who's involved in creating ideas.
We all know about Bernays and public relations and how he changed our view of cigarette smoking.
I love that.
I love fads.
I'm always watching fads, trends, behaviors, expressions, slang, a lot of things.
So the people, if I want to control somebody, and I want to control what they think, not what they say, but what they think, I go to their social environment.
I don't give them books.
I'm not worried about...
Schools and teachers, I want to control that which they are the most familiar with.
Their friends, their family, their colleagues, their set.
That's number one.
Number two, I then want to create a set of rules within this social parameter that does not allow certain things to be said.
And if I can control first what can't be said, the next logical step is what can't be thought.
When you are told repeatedly that something is good or something is bad, over and over and over, and it's reinforced not by parents, not by the government, but your friends, those within this social structure.
You'll stop thinking that, or you'll change the way you think.
Overnight, we created, out of the blue, the Thunberg Effect.
People who became rabidly, passionately, emotionally connected to this love and this respect and this identification with climate change.
Even though...
They couldn't explain the first thing about it.
They don't know the Holocene Maxima from the hipsy thermals to climatology.
They have no idea.
It was something about a polar bear and her cub on top of an ice cube that used to be an iceberg, and that was it.
They talk about alternative energy.
They have no idea what.
Wind energy.
They have no idea what this means.
Why they say it and why they think it is because when they go back into their group and they repeat this ideology, repeat these tropes, repeat these tropisms, these thoughts, these memes, these ideas, they're celebrated and applauded.
Very good.
Look at the words today.
Conspiracy theory?
Very good.
Racist.
Hate.
Disinformation.
Misinformation.
You can go through this.
Oh, the phobias.
Transphobia.
Misogynistic.
We used to say that.
Homophobia.
Transphobia.
We then create a world in which people want to know what's the latest one.
You know how people just say things all of a sudden?
Everybody now is slammed.
I'm slammed.
It's the biggest thing in the world.
Bill Maher slams Joe Biden as though that means something.
But if you say it a million times, people will think it a million times.
And what happens when you start to say, hmm, I think what I'm hearing from the government does not necessarily connect with what I think actually occurred.
Whatever the event, which people have been seeing since day one.
Name it.
Name it.
Every civilization, every village, every city, every state, every county, every population quadrant has looked to somebody.
From student government to the NFL to the homeowners association.
Name it.
And they have said, I do not believe what I was told.
I think this particular rendition of the facts do not comply, do not comport, do not work with what I think reality is.
What to do?
Call it a conspiracy theory.
And also, convey it as crazy.
These people are crazy.
To use Cass Sunstein's term, a crippled epistemology.
There's something wrong.
It's not just that you think this.
It's not that you say this.
But you don't think right.
You're weak.
There's something wrong with you.
It's not enough that you think this.
It's not enough.
Watch what happens.
Look at the Salman Rushdie assassination attempt.
Look at the connection with Iran.
And then ask yourself, you know, I'm starting to see more and more people re-upping, turning up the volume of the anti-Iranian logic.
Do you think, and then stop, If you are remotely close to pay dirt, whatever it is, wherever they think you're going with the sentence, they think you're about to finish, they will tell you, stop it.
That's a conspiracy theory.
You don't even know what I'm saying.
It doesn't matter.
There is no cause and effect here.
Whenever you say...
That something may be the result of something.
Or something may be inadvertently fueling a particular radiology.
You're suggesting, maybe, maybe, that this was, what, connected?
And what do you do?
Stop.
Because you're taught.
It's like classical conditioning.
You're the dog.
Instead of salivating.
Extinction behavior.
You're punished.
Forget it.
And then friends of yours.
What are you saying?
And then within certain social media constructs.
They banned him.
Why?
He said the wrong stuff.
Watch what you say.
Watch what you think.
Don't say it.
Don't think it.
If you As George Bush would say, misunderstand.
If you do not pay particular attention to what I'm saying, you are missing, missing, one of the greatest societal, behavioral, psychological changes and manipulations in the history of Planetary behavior control.
It's bigger, deeper, grander, more broadening than anything you can imagine.
Now, if you, quote, like, whatever that means, this, I'd appreciate you indicating such.
I would also appreciate you subscribing.
