More fool you: 10 modus operandi of the mass manipulators

We are immersed in a behavioural psychology programme. The global elite is manipulating everything from incidents to information, in the process of building an authoritarian technocracy.

The powerful do not wait for events such as a pandemic to happen and then exploit; instead, they create the events, which are scripted for a predetermined outcome. But the masses must be kept in the dark about the real motives, while being steered into supporting policies that are against their interests. The modus operandi features the following means of deception.

1. Dual messaging

There are two audiences for public announcements and media reports on events. The vast majority (‘normies’) are told the official story and believe what they are told. They know it happened, because they saw it on ‘the news’. There is also a minority of critical thinkers, who the authorities know will ask questions and suspect that the narrative is not the full truth. These people are led to believe a parallel story.

For example, as David Fleming and I wrote on the Covid-19 ‘psy-op’, critical thinkers (who are mostly not as critical as they like to think) were given clues about the virus being leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. Unwittingly, these self-limited sceptics reinforced the hoax of a novel and deadly pathogen (they believed that mortality was exaggerated but couldn’t see that the whole show was staged).

Another example was the ‘assassination’ of Charlie Kirk. People saw it on the internet or television in shocking detail. The story for the masses was that a leftist ‘tranny’ fired the shot from the roof of a nearby building. Critical thinkers were fed another story: that Kirk had been criticising Israel and was exterminated by a skilled sniper working for Mossad. Again, the alternative truth was useful to the powers-that-be, because it emphasised that anyone speaking out against the Israeli government or Zionism would be risking their life. Kash Patel, Donald Trump’s FBI chief, implied to the more alert critic that Kirk was not killed, because he hoped to see the allegedly deceased in Valhalla (the name of the federal witness protection programme, which can give a person a new identity).

Whenever a major incident occurs, the most popular alternative media figures (e.g. Alex Jones, Joe Rogan, Russell Brand) typically follow the lead given for critical thinkers by the scriptwriters.

It is not too extreme to start from the position that the presented story is completely false: the burden of proof should be on the official reporter rather than the critic. The only important consideration is the desired outcome: why are they doing this?

2. Inversion of purpose

The declared rationale for a policy may be hard to oppose, as it often promises convenience, cost savings or security, but the real purpose is usually to boost control. The masters of deception are clearly at work with the clampdown on freedom of expression on the internet. The Westminster government boasted that it would make the UK the safest country in the world for children online. The Online Safety Act was promoted as the instrument to save children from sexually inappropriate content and abuse, following years of propaganda about a ‘mental health crisis’ in younger people. However, this statute is used by the media regulator Ofcom for censorship of political opinion, indirectly administered by threatening social media platforms with mind-boggling fines.

Returning to child safety, if the authorities really wanted to reduce harm they would have acted more effectively to stop the Pakistani-origin ‘grooming gangs’ preying on white working-class girls, or they would tackle hard pornography at source. Arguably, the stated aim of policy is inverted. While schools teach awareness of mental health and ‘neurodiversity’, they make children feel less safe. And that is apparent in the compliance culture and lack of risk-taking and boisterous behaviour that you would previously have expected of teenagers.

Despite (or because of) the focus on mental health, the outcome of the education system is young people with pervading anxiety and learned vulnerability. This is what the powers-that-be want, and not only for children. Adults too are kept on their toes with stranger danger and other scares. The barrage of ‘see it, say it, sorted’ messages on the British railway network is to instil in minds dependence on the state. Government does not want you to feel safe, any more than pharmaceutical companies want you to be healthy.

Inversion was also apparent in the contrived Covid-19 contagion, which was used to launch the ‘Great Reset’. Among many achievements of this scam was a cull of the elderly (including discharge of older patients from hospital to care homes, where they were medicated with the terminal care combination of morphine and midazolam). The people, however, were told that lockdown and vaccines were necessary to ‘save Granny’.

US and Israel Prepping for a New Attack on Iran by Creating a Narrative of Government Chaos

Was it just a coincidence that as Donald Trump met last Monday with Israel’s Bibi Netanyahu to discuss a future attack against Iran that protests, some accompanied by violence, broke out in several cities in Iran? I am not a believer in coincidence. Following that meeting, the US news media — both print and electronic — was flooded with stories painting the protests as a mighty uprising of the Iranian people. A new revolution has begun… or so the Western public is being told.

One of the major purveyors of this narrative is the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), which is an Iranian exile-based political opposition coalition founded in 1981 in Tehran (later relocated to Paris, France, with activities in Albania). It positions itself as a parliament-in-exile and the primary democratic alternative to the Islamic Republic regime. The NCRI advocates for overthrowing the current government and establishing a secular, democratic, pluralistic, and non-nuclear republic in Iran, emphasizing separation of religion and state, gender equality, human rights, and minority rights. And guess what? The NCRI is the creature of a group the US once labeled as a terrorist organization.

The NCRI as a tightly controlled front for the PMOI/MEK, with limited broad support inside Iran. The PMOI was formerly designated a terrorist organization by the US (delisted in 2012) and EU, partly due to past armed actions. The group has been accused of cult-like practices and authoritarian internal structure, though supporters reject these claims and emphasize its democratic platform.

The People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI), also known as Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) or Mojahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), is an Iranian opposition group founded in 1965 with a long history of terrorism in Iran. It is the principal component of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), which it describes as its political wing. The People’s Mujahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) has a documented history of violent activities, primarily from the 1970s to the early 2000s, which led to its designation as a terrorist organization by the United States (1997–2012), the European Union (until 2009), and others.

“We Are Everywhere” – Fort Bragg Psychological Warfare Group Posts Chilling Video

A secretive Fort Bragg operation that specializes in influencing people’s thoughts has released a hypnotic recruitment video that is laced with hidden meanings and strange images.

Known as the 4th Psychological Operations-Airborne, or 4th PSYOP, the group specializes in “using the power of the mind to persuade opinion and discourse” among the nation’s enemies.

The 1:17-second clip, posted Nov. 19 on social media, is a string of baffling clips, including old cartoons, masked figures hiding in plain sight and a group of people staring blankly at the viewer over the phrase: “We are everywhere.”

“There is another force applied in combat that we generally don’t think of as a weapon of war. That weapon is words,” the video says.

“Words are weapons… This is psychological warfare.”

The video then beckons: “Join PSYOP.”

Report: Trump Presented With Options To Bomb Venezuela, No Final Decision Made

Senior military officials on Wednesday presented President Trump with options for potential military operations in Venezuela, including strikes on land, CBS News reported on Thursday.

The report, which cited White House officials familiar with the meeting, said that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Caine were involved in the briefing that presented potential options for the “coming days,” though no final decision was made.

The report comes after signs that the president was cooling on the idea of launching a war with Venezuela, though a US aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald Ford, and three US Navy destroyers, just arrived in the region, significantly bolstering US forces in the Caribbean.

The leaks to CBS about the briefing could be part of the psychological operation against Maduro aimed at pressuring him to voluntarily step down from power, though that’s unlikely to happen. The Wall Street Journal reported on November 5 that the president expressed reservations about attacking Venezuela and that he was content with slowly building up US forces in the region and continuing the illegal bombing campaign against alleged drug-running boats in the region.

The push toward a regime change war in Venezuela is being driven by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who also serves as Trump’s national security advisor. Reports have said that Stephen Miller, the president’s senior domestic policy advisor, also favors war, but there are concerns within the administration that taking out Maduro could plunge Venezuela into chaos and lead to another migrant crisis, akin to what happened in Libya after Muammar Gaddafi was brutally killed during a US and NATO bombing campaign.

Rubio has previously directly compared ousting Maduro with the killing of Gaddafi. Back in 2019, when the first Trump administration attempted to unseat Maduro, Rubio posted a photo on Twitter of Gaddafi in the moments before he was killed as a threat to the Venezuelan leader.

The Flood Of Stunning New Evidence That J6 Was A Fedsurrection Can’t Be Ignored

Like many of you, after the initial shock wore off, it became quite clear that something nefarious was behind the Jan. 6, 2021, breach of the Capitol Complex. Things were too pat. Narratives were set and eagerly parroted by the media within hours. Buses filled with non-MAGA people were reported and verified by congressional reps. And there were “bombs” found at the Democratic National Committee and later at a club near the RNC. Impeachment talk was openly discussed. 

Suddenly, questioning the obviously hinky 2020 election was a criminal act against democracy. Trump must go to jail, the left said. And then they went about making that happen. A Hollywood producer soon was under contract to produce Congress’s January 6, The Movie! where no exculpatory information was allowed. 

The word “insurrection” became quickly affixed to all news stories, though no one knew what really happened. President Donald Trump’s slow response in urging people to go home was seen as an admission of something nefarious. And his words spoken at the Ellipse were clipped, taken out of context, and all exculpatory words he spoke were mysteriously left out of the discussion. 

And the fix is still in. On Sunday, two executives at the BBC resigned in disgrace after the popular British news program Panorama was caught making egregious edits in Trump’s speech to make him sound like he was encouraging a run on the Capitol Building.

Capitol Police Officer Shauni Kerkhoff Identified as J6 Bomber Based on Forensic Match — Testified to Firing Pepper Balls at J6 Crowd, Then Months Later Took a Security Job at the CIA

On January 5, 2021, a suspect planted pipe bombs near the Washington, D.C., RNC and DNC headquarters the night before the January 6, 2021, protests.

The culprit was caught on video but never caught by the FBI – the greatest intelligence service in the world.

The US Capitol was shut down on January 6 after the feds found the bombs near the Republican and Democrat Party headquarters.

As previously reported — A mysterious suspect planted two pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC DC Headquarters that were safely detonated by a bomb squad on January 6.

As The Gateway Pundit reported at the time and several times since Jan. 6 – Federal authorities shut down the counting of electoral votes by the US Congress when news broke that the “bombs” were found at the RNC and DNC headquarters.

It was NOT the J6 protesters storming the building that shut down the counting. It was news of the pipe bombs!

This is significant now that we can confirm that the bombs were planted by a female US Capitol Police Officer who later went to work security at the CIA headquarters.

Shauni Kerkoff went to work for the CIA headquarters after the January 6 riots. She later testified against J6 defendant Guy Reffitt, who was set up by the FBI, who wired his son in his own home.

Shauni reportedly scrubbed her social media accounts after joining the FBI.

The story about the woman who found the first ‘J-6 DC pipe bomb’ is blowing apart…

The story about the woman who supposedly stumbled upon the first J6 DC pipe bomb is starting to collapse under its own weight. Like so much of January 6… from the “Fedsurrection” crawling with undercover agents to the conveniently placed “explosives” that never went off… this political soap opera, or “psyop,” if you will, raises far more questions than answers.

For those who’ve read our work, you already know we’ve spent years digging into the pipe bomb story and the government’s J6 narrative. What we uncovered is a laundry list of inconsistencies that any honest investigator would call “highly suspicious” at best. Revolver, along with other truth-seekers, was among the first to blow the lid off the pipe bomb hoax. We have been keeping up with the story and reporting on the latest twists and turns.

Revolver:

We have yet another humdinger of an update on this absurd pipe bomb hoax linked to J6. As Revolver readers know, years ago our investigative work helped blow the feds’ “official story” to bits and opened the door for others to dig deeper into this fanciful tale of some unknown “pipe bomber” lurking around DC in a hoodie. To this day, that person has mysteriously remained anonymous, even though you can see him (or her) prancing around on camera.

For crying out loud, the feds can pinpoint the nose hairs of a MAGA grandma from two states away, but they can’t find this so-called dangerous bomber? Please. This story has always been riddled with gaping holes. Those holes keep getting bigger, and at this point, they’re so big, you could drive a semi through them.

The latest twist may be the most insane yet. But before we get there, let’s remember what we recently shared with you… a receipt Julie Kelly uncovered that raised yet another red flag about the “official” story, this time involving the timing of when the so-called bombs were planted. It’s starting to look like the FBI has been lying even more than we thought.

[…]

…the pipe bombs might have been a “training exercise”? If that’s true, then why are there “wanted posters” for a phantom bomber?

You can read the entire piece here:

But now, new footage and testimony are making things even murkier. The woman at the center of the story, the one who supposedly discovered the first pipe bomb, has a timeline and a story that just don’t match the evidence.

Breaking Free From State Rule

Wars are mass-murder, massive theft, and unrelenting propaganda. In this country they’re lucrative overseas entanglements, as government diverts loot from taxpayers to the war industry. They’re also perpetual, as war embellishes the sanctity of the state as well as providing grounds for increased plunder of its population. Wars are government as Houdini—drawing attention to the bloody far-away while relieving attention on the corrupt close-at-hand. For the victor, the propaganda is inked as truth in the history books. War is the health of the state, Randolph Bourne concluded, but not for the people under it:

In the freest of republics as well as in the most tyrannical of empires, all foreign policy, the diplomatic negotiations which produce or forestall war, are equally the private property of the Executive part of the Government, and are equally exposed to no check whatever from popular bodies, or the people voting as a mass themselves.

Government-controlled monetary policy is cover for counterfeiting, an insidious form of taxation that creates gross economic distortions and inequalities. Presidential elections are extravagant contests between straw men owned by those behind the throne. Formal education is indoctrination into dominant narratives. The US Constitution is a feel-good distraction from the larceny and depravity of the political class.

Blogger J.D. Breen has published a brief history of the 21st century in two parts (here and here). “As last century was launched when the Maine sank in Havana harbor, this one turned when the Twin Towers were toppled. . . . The remnants of the U.S. Constitution went in the shredder.” Shocking, but not surprising, he said, given the destruction wrought by US intervention in Muslim countries over the decades.

But government, as we’ve learned, is never accountable for wrong-doing. If it was, it would imply the state is fallible, a blasphemous idea.

Manipulation: Media’s Illegal-alien Sob Stories Are Meant to Deceive

There’s a certain technique often used by journalists, one designed to get you not thinking, but feeling. It involves opening an article with a human-interest story, and it’s figuring prominently right now with the illegal-migration controversy. It may go something like this:

Lupe entered the United States as a wide-eyed child from Mexico, having high hopes and dreaming bold dreams. Growing up in Arizona, she toiled as a maid to support her family. But using a false document to land a job resulted in a felony conviction, making Lupe ineligible for DACA; any path to legalization was closed to her. Now in her 30s, Lupe must endure the continuous fear of deportation. She has been robbed of opportunities her peers take for granted, such as driver’s licenses or college aid. Once a hard-working immigrant, Lupe is now an outcast, one of America’s modern-day lepers.

Heart Over Head

Of course, the idea is to engage your emotions and not your intellect. You’re supposed to identify with Lupe and not identify policy-specific imperatives. It’s not supposed to occur to you that Lupe isn’t an “immigrant,” as stated above, but a “migrant” at best. (The former term implies entry via a legal process.) You’re not supposed to think about illegal-alien crime and its many American victims. You’re not supposed to contemplate the strain on resources and infrastructure, such as schools and hospitals. You’re not supposed to wonder about how the billions of dollars illegals cost our system affect our ability to help fellow citizens, such as veterans. It’s not supposed to dawn on you that deportation isn’t punishment. As with children who’ve run away from home, it’s merely the returning of people to where they’re meant to be.

You’re not supposed to trouble over the cultural and political implications of absorbing millions of sometimes unassimilable aliens. No, you’re not supposed to consider facts, figures, realities, or statistics at all. You’re not to realize that making policy for 343 million people based on one person’s situation ignores that the “good of the many outweighs the good of the few.” You’re only supposed to identify with Lupe. You’re to be governed by your tears, not Truth; by what momentarily feels good, not what is good.

Who Controls the Public Mind?

Some of the greatest political literature of the 20th century was written during years of violence, war, and upheaval between 1934 to 1946. During such times, the world of ideas leaves the parlor games and comes to affect the fate of millions. These are moments that divide the serious scholars from the pretenders.

During a crisis, from a career point of view, it is always better to stay silent. To speak out risks everything. It requires more than courage. It requires a willingness to put it all on the line to see one’s ideas realized in the real world. It’s also when intellectuals can have their greatest impact on the world. And yet, few do it. Few stand up when they are most needed.

One of my favorite thinkers from this entire period is F.A. Hayek, a monetary economist at the University of Vienna who left (as many did) to take residence in London at the London School of Economics. There he quickly established himself as the alternative to John Maynard Keynes, whose new theories contradicted the whole of classical economics.

Keynes was riding high as the guru of fascistic experiments the world over, even to the point of writing an introduction to the German edition of his book in 1936 when the Nazis were firmly in power. He celebrated the regime and its potential.

In contrast, Hayek represented old-world liberalism. Before his move to London, Hayek had been hard at work on theoretical problems involving capital structures, interest rate signaling issues, pricing as an information tool, the unworkability of socialism, and other such matters. His work in this area ultimately won him the Nobel Prize in 1974.

In the midst of the Second World War, Hayek was alarmed to see England take the direction of economic central planning, different in degree but not in kind to what was happening in Europe and the United States. The new system that had emerged from the Great Depression combined government and the largest corporate sectors into a single unit managed from the top.

His core critique was that no planners could possess the knowledge necessary to make these systems work in any way that would benefit the whole. The answer to social problems was not to assign the job of planning to intellectuals with resources and power, as was being done all over the world. Their plans would necessarily override the planning of individuals and families.
