Space, we are told, is,
"the final frontier"...
And you can bet your
bottom dollar that where there's a frontier, there's a gaggle of
oligarchs looking to stick their snoot into it.
That's why it didn't come as much of a surprise
when the laughably named "North Atlantic" Treaty Organization
(NATO)
declared in 2019 that outer space is now one of the alliance's
"operational domains."
...or when the NATO gang
pledged $1 billion last year to,
"improve the sharing of
intelligence from national and commercial reconnaissance
satellites."
...or when the "vice chief of space
operations" of the US Space Force
warned last month that,
"China is practicing 'dogfighting'
satellites as part of its expanding capabilities in space".
All of this outer space hype might lead you to
believe that the real battles of the 21st century are going to be
taking place above Earth.
But, with all due respect to Captain Kirk and his
crew, space is not the final frontier, and whatever
fireworks are taking place up in the night skies is simply a
distraction from the real battle taking place down here on
Earth.
Yes, as it turns out, outer space isn't
the next great battlespace.
Inner space is...!
The great war of our times is not the war for the
galaxy:
it's the war for the mind.
That war has been going
on for a lot longer than most people believe, and recent
technological developments have made the battle for your brain much
more literal than most people comprehend.
Today, let's peel back the layers of deception
and reveal the primary battleground of this
fifth-generation war
on us all:
the space between your ears...
For thousands of years, military strategists have
understood that an army's success often depends not on its size or
even on its armaments but on its knowledge of the opponent.
After all, as Sun Tzu
observes:
If you know the enemy and know yourself, you
need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
If you know
yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will
also suffer a defeat.
If you know neither the enemy nor
yourself, you will succumb in every battle.
It follows, then, that the success of the
globalists in their fifth-generation war on us all depends on their knowledge of
humanity itself.
What makes people tick?
What motivates and demotivates them?
What
stimuli do they respond to, and in what way do they respond?
From the viewpoint of those wishing to
manipulate, control and subdue humanity, the knowledge of
the human
mind that can be gleaned from the answers to these questions is the
most prized knowledge of all.
So, it shouldn't be surprising to learn that not
only scientific researchers but military planners and government
officials have spent centuries trying to better understand humans
and their behaviors, and, more importantly, how to mould, influence,
shape or outright control those behaviors.
Everyone knows about
Ivan Pavlov's
experiments in conditioning.
Any high schooler could
tell you how Pavlov was able to condition dogs to salivate upon
hearing the ringing of a dinner bell.
But how many know that Pavlov's research
didn't end with his observation of canines?
That he next began duplicating his
experiments on human subjects?
That those human experiments saw Pavlov and
his protégé, Nikoli Krasnogorsky,
scooping orphans off the streets, drugging them, surgically
fitting them with salivation monitors and force-feeding them
food so that these children, like Pavlov's dogs, could be
trained to salivate on command?
How many are familiar with the experimenters
who followed in Pavlov's footsteps?
How many have seen
the footage of John B. Watson's "Little Albert" experiments,
where the psychologist deliberately traumatized an 11-month-old
baby in an attempt to refine the techniques of conditioning
humans?
How many have read
Watson himself bragging that,
"[a]fter conditioning, even the sight of the long whiskers of a Santa Claus mask sends
the youngster scuttling away, crying and shaking his head from
side to side"?
How many have followed the thread from Pavlov
and Watson and the "classical
conditioning" researchers to the "radical
behaviorists" like B. F. Skinner and his work in perfecting
operant conditioning?
How many have read Skinner's
Walden Two, in which he proposes a scheme for creating
a utopian society by conditioning children from birth to assume
specific roles in society?
By this point, it's fairly common knowledge that
the CIA conducted mind control experiments like
Project MKUltra,
using operatives like
Sidney Gottlieb and Dr.
Ewan Cameron to administer LSD to unwitting subjects and
conduct other ghoulish experiments in mental manipulation.
But how many have heard of MKSearch or
MKChickwit or MKOften or any of the other
spin-offs of this nightmarish research?
How many know
these experiments,
"were designed to destabilize human
personality by creating behavior disturbances, altered sex
patterns, aberrant behavior using sensory deprivation and
various powerful stress-producing chemicals, and mind-altering
substances",
...and were carried out on so-called "expendables" -
i.e.,
"people whose death or disappearance would arouse no
suspicion"?
How many have heard of George Brock
Chisholm, who served as the
first Director-General of the World Health
Organization (WHO) and
helped
spearhead the World Federation for Mental Health?
How many have read the transcript of his 1945
lecture, "The
Reestablishment of Peacetime Psychiatry," in which he
declared,
"If the race is to be freed from its crippling burden
of good and evil it must be psychiatrists who take the original
responsibility"?
And how many are aware that Chisholm's call
to action was heeded by men like British military psychiatrist
Colonel
John Rawlings Rees, the first president of Chisholm's World
Federation of Mental Health and chair of the infamous
Tavistock
Institute from 1933 to 1947?
How many know the story of how Dr. Jim
Mitchell - a military retiree and psychologist who had
contracted to provide training services to the CIA - took the
findings of Dr. Martin Seligman on the psychological phenomenon
of "learned
helplessness" and
weaponized them for the CIA in the service of the Agency's
post-9/11 illegal torture program?
Whether the general public is aware of this
documented history or not, the record shows that the last 125 years
of research into the human psyche has been conducted - or at least
weaponized - by Machiavellian manipulators and secret schemers whose
intent is to socially engineer the masses.
And, as the science of the mind progresses in the
21st century, these social engineering schemes are only getting more
effective.
The alternative media has certainly had cause to
note that we here in the 21st century are the (largely unwitting)
targets of a large-scale information war.
This war is being waged
upon us largely (though not exclusively) by our own governments.
Occasionally, stories of some of the campaigns in
this war break through the information blockade, and the public
catches a glimpse of the battle that is being waged against them on
all fronts.
Bemused Canadians, for example, were able to read
about the Canadian military's bizarre
"wolf letter" psyop in the pages of The Ottawa Citizen
back in 2021.
But any concerns that might have been raised by
this psyop and its
wild story of forged government letters and recorded wolf noises
were soon quelled by the usual establishment lapdog journalists.
The whole thing,
we were told, was caused by,
"a handful of military reservists
testing psychological tactics at a weekend exercise" and "new
control measures are now in place to ensure psychological operation
exercises and influence activities do not reach unintended
audiences",
...so, obviously there's nothing more to worry
about!
Residents of the UK, meanwhile, got their own
glimpse of the infowar in 2021 when members of the Scientific
Pandemic Influenza Group on Behaviour (SPI-B) - a group
providing,
"independent, expert, social and behavioural science
advice" to the UK government -
admitted they were guilty
of "using fear as a means of control."
Tasked with providing insight on how to make
Britons compliant with their government's,
lockdown, social
distancing, masking and other restrictions at the beginning of the scamdemic,
...the SPI-B experts urged the government to increase,
"the
perceived level of personal threat" from
Covid-19.
Multiple members of the SPI-B team later
expressed regret about the scheme, calling it "totalitarian" and
unethical.
One SPI-B member confessed:
"You could call
psychology ‘mind control'. That's what we do."
Another put it even more bluntly:
"Without a
vaccine, psychology is your main weapon... Psychology has had a
really good epidemic, actually."
But to the extent that these operations ever come
to public light, it is almost always in disconnected and
decontextualized stories like these.
Those Canadians who learned about the "wolf
letter" psyop, for example, likely never read about the SPI-B
scamdemic psyop, let alone connect the events together as evidence
of the all-out infowar.
In recent years, however, the existence of the
infowar has not only become undeniable:
It is undenied...!
In 2022, the Associated Press
published "'Pre-bunking'
shows promise in fight against misinformation," an article
touting new research that claims to show progress in the creation of
new weapons in the information war.
After detailing the usual examples of the scourge
of "misinformation," i.e.,
observations that erode public faith in
"democratic institutions, journalism and science",
...the article then
reports uncritically on new techniques that are being developed to
trick the public into once again trusting these demonstrably
untrustworthy institutions.
New findings from university researchers and
Google, however, reveal that one of the most promising responses
to misinformation may also be one of the simplest.
In a paper published Wednesday in the journal
Science Advances, the researchers detail how short online videos
that teach basic critical thinking skills can make people better
able to resist misinformation.
The researchers created a series of videos
similar to a public service announcement that focused on
specific misinformation techniques - characteristics
seen in many common false claims that include emotionally
charged language, personal attacks or false comparisons between
two unrelated items.
Researchers then gave people a series of
claims and found that those who watched the videos were
significantly better at distinguishing false information from
accurate information.
Although research like that touted by the AP is
ostensibly civilian in nature, the fact that this information
campaign is part of a literal military battle that is being waged
against us is now starting to be admitted, as well.
In 2023, for example, the Japanese military
officially added the "cognitive domain" as the latest new battle
domain added to Japan's National Defense Program Guideline.
In
addition to the traditional domains of territorial land, water and
airspace, and to newly added domains like space, cyberspace and the electrogmagnetic domain, Japan's defense authorities now claim
the
cognitive space as part of their remit...
According to
The Global Times:
The building of such cognitive capability
would also be written into the National Security Strategy, one
of the three major diplomatic and security documents to be
amended before the end of 2022, VOA Chinese reported, citing the
theory that,
the Japanese defense authorities and the
Self-Defense Force attach great importance to the
"misinformation" released by Russia and China, consider that
information spread in the Chinese language is a global trend and
that cognitive warfare by the island of Taiwan against the
Chinese mainland provides valuable experience for research and
study.
[...]
Analysts said that,
cognitive warfare is a
combination of digital information, media and spy technology
that leads public opinion to extremes in order to affect the
basis of diplomacy between countries and to realize the goals of
political manipulation, citing the US' infamous "peaceful
transfer of power" strategy in other countries as an example.
The recognition of the "cognitive domain" as a
literal battlefield is not limited to the Japanese defense forces,
however.
In 2019, the Chinese State Council Information
Office released a white paper on "China's
National Defense in the New Era" arguing that,
"[w]ar is evolving
in form towards informationized [sic] warfare, and intelligent
warfare is on the horizon."
In 2022, Motohiro Tsuchiya, a professor at Keio
University, wrote an article on "Governing
Cognitive Warfare" for Governing the Global Commons - Challenges and Opportunities for US-Japan Cooperation (a
publication of the German Marshall Fund of the United States!) in
which he warned that,
the threat of "intelligentized warfare" by
China and other US State Department bogeymen necessitated US
cooperation to "create and promote rules and norms that can
effectively govern cyberwarfare."
And, perhaps inevitably, it wasn't long before it
was discovered that the real threat in this new "cognitive
domain" isn't the ChiComs or
the CRINKs or
any other outside force, but... *drumroll, please*... online
conspiracy theorists...!
That's right, in 2023, Tomoko Nagasako, a
research fellow at The Sasakawa Peace Foundation,
penned,
"The
Threat of Conspiracy Theories in the Battle for the Cognitive Domain
- A Consideration of the Status of Conspiracy Theories in
Japan Based on Attempts at Regime Destruction Overseas."
As you might guess from that title, the article
provides,
"an overview of the state of conspiracy theories overseas
and in Japan," details how these dastardly conspiracy theorists
present a threat to national security "[f]rom the perspective of
cognitive warfare," and proposes countermeasures to address these
grave dangers to the nation.
And what "conspiracy theories" does Nagasako cite
in her piece?:
-
that there exists a "deep state" over and above the
surface-level government
-
that the COVID vaccines were harmful
-
that
the US has conducted biological weapons research in Ukraine in recent years,
... you know, the usual harebrained ideas that only
kooky conspiracy realists would even entertain.
Yes, for those who haven't received the memo yet:
There most certainly is a war for your mind.
It certainly is taking place right now.
It is being waged by militaries
around the world.
The target of these wars is, more often than not,
these very militaries' fellow countrymen.
To those who are just waking up to this war, you
have my deepest sympathy.
Realizing that you are a target in a
battle you didn't even know you were fighting in a "cognitive
domain" you never even knew existed must be wildly disorienting, to
say the least.
But here's the bad news:
new technologies are
being developed that will make all of this history - from
Pavlov to Skinner to Mitchell to SPI-B - and all of these secret
operations - from MKUltra to MKChickwit - and all of these military
campaigns - from Chisholm and Rees and the machinations of the
Tavistock minions to the ChiComs and the Japanese and the
development of cognitive warfare - seem like small potatoes...
The technology to rewire the brain - quite
literally - is already being tested and deployed.
And, once these technologies are ready to be
unleashed on the public, they may bring the age-old dream of the
dictators for total domination of the human population to reality...!
