Brett recently posted a blog article here at TPD about conspiracies of convenience – crumby, divisive things that benefit and enrich the Elite, but occur not by design, but simply because they “just kind of happen.” Brett’s correct in identifying divisiveness as a palpable problem. And he’s also correct in suspecting that I believe that most of this turmoil is very much by design rather than by accident. 😉
Hi-Tech Propaganda is still Propaganda
One of the greatest weapons being used against us on this front is the propaganda machine called social media. Talk about divisive. This technology enables individualized content feeds, which means when you attempt to speak to a friend about a major news story, he might look at you blankly and say, “I’ve never heard of that.”
As we touched upon in our previous podcast about the origins of Facebook, there is evidence that many of the major social media platforms and web entities were started and/or seed-funded by nefarious organizations such as the CIA. These social media outlets are not the generic corporations that they pretend to be, nor are they accidental Frankensteins created by innocent tech nerds who had no idea that their inventions could be used for evil, as promoted in recent exposés such as The Social Dilemma, a “documentary” that purports to enlighten us on the hidden dangers of social media while itself being a thinly disguised propaganda piece. These digital platforms are actually a part of the machine. So unfortunately, you can probably abandon your hopes that Zuckerburg or Pachai or anyone else will ever get their ass handed to them by a Senate inquiry.
Follow the Money (and Ideology)
Let’s say you want to start your own Big Tech Company or Social Media Platform. The classic story goes something like this: The first thing you’ll need is some nerd power – a brilliant idea plus the know-how to write some beta code that can be demonstrated to potential investors. If an investor likes your idea, you cut a deal and you’re underway. Then you either sink or swim based on the whims of the marketplace.
While there is some truth to this storyboard, I’d say that it’s not quite complete. It doesn’t take too much digging into the histories of existing Big Tech companies to uncover the missing, key ingredients in the start-up recipe – ingredients primarily related to families. The Right Families, that is. It’s families that provide the ideological framework that seeds “brilliant ideas” and inventions (which are usually related to further dominating the proletariat), and it’s families that provide the financial connections that enable start-up and continuing investments. To clarify this assertion, I’ll cite just a couple examples:
Susan Wojcicki, current CEO of YouTube (and effectively a YouTube co-founder) isn’t just Susan Somebody. Her father was an active socialist and professor in high energy physics at CERN, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and Stanford. Her sister (ex-wife and current foundation partner of Youtube founder, Sergey Brin) co-founded and serves as CEO of a genomics company called 23andMe. And as for Sergey Brin…well… he was born in Moscow and his mother, a graduate of Moscow State University was a researcher at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center.
Bill Gates, who needs no introduction except to say that (in keeping with the great Rockefeller tradition) he now likes to be called a “philanthropist” rather than a business magnate, isn’t just Bill Ordinary. His father, Bill Sr. , co-founded and was a partner in a powerful law firm and served on the boards of directors for numerous organizations in the Pacific Northwest including United Way and Planned Parenthood (hinting at his keen interest in eugenics), and authored books that promoted heavy taxation (hinting at his keen interest in socialism). Bill’s mother, Mary, was President of King County’s United Way, chair of the United Way’s National Executive Committee, and sat on the board of directors of Interstate Bank of Washington, First Interstate Bank, Unigard Security Insurance Group, and Pacific Northwest Bell. How did Mary, educated to become a schoolteacher, land such influential positions, you might ask? Her father (Bill’s grandfather) was a director of the Seattle branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. Gulp.
These examples could go on for a quite a while. But if I continue, I’m going to have to Google an emoji that represents me throwing up in my mouth a little so I can insert it here.
Social Media’s Plan of Attack
So if social media – and even the internet itself – is some sort of coordinated attack that is invented, funded, and developed largely by old Elite families, what’s the agenda? What’s the point of it all? I would say there are three primary goals that serve the Elite quite well:
- Enrichment. I’m not going to deny that technology can be monetized, that killer business models can be built around software code.
- Surveillance. The digital domain is perfect for spying on people, for digitally fingerprinting them. Deep surveillance (which enables strict control via mechanized reward/punishment schemes) has always been at the center of the totalitarian dream.
- Messaging. The digital domain is also perfect for controlling and broadcasting information flow. It’s propaganda on steroids, as it enables Elite-accepted intellectual ideas, rhetoric, and the Official Narrative to be disseminated and repeated ad infinutum, in a space where all opposing views can be easily tagged and then subverted or suppressed.
But don’t take my word for it. Psychopathic “political scientist,” Zbigniew Brzezinski, said all this much better than I can. This guy should get a posthumous evil genius award, having lurked around in the U.S’s geopolitical backwaters for decades upon decades. He was a counselor to President Lyndon B. Johnson, President Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor, the primary organizer of The Trilateral Commission, and President Barack Obama’s handler before and during Obama’s presidency. In his 1970 book, titled Between Two Ages – America’s Role in the Technetronic Era, Brzezinski wrote the following:
“The technetronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values. Soon it will be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities.”
Well said, Mein Führer! (I need my puke emoji again.)
Big Tech knows Covid-19
As a working example of what happens when we allow technocrats to run amok, let’s touch upon what’s currently happening with Covid-19.
Social media platforms and their aged buddies, the now-antiquated mainstream media, are churning out propaganda by the bucketful regarding Covid-19. We’ve all heard the song, and if you’ve ever worked in marketing or advertising, I’ll bet you can spot the Key Messages in play: Covid-19 cases are on the rise; Our healthcare workers are overwhelmed; Things will not return to normal until a vaccine is widely administered; Vaccines that have been developed from scratch in under a year are almost ready to be deployed around the world; Even after everyone’s been vaccinated, we’ll need to get used to a New Normal; Wearing a mask is an act of kindness, and people that do not wear masks are ignorant or selfish, or likely both; and so on.
If you believe any of the above points, you’re the victim of propaganda. But don’t worry: It’s not your fault, and – more importantly – it’s not too late to see it for what it is. As always, you have the power to do your own research and not accept the passive information streams that come your way. You also have the power to accept the official narrative as-is. After all, perhaps the propaganda is meant to protect you, keep you safe like the warm embrace of a gentle grandmother.
All I can do is share my personal perspective, which is basically this: I don’t believe all that I read or hear. Big surprise! I don’t even believe all that’s written in what I’m sharing with you below, which is a collection of a few of my favorite recent articles regarding Covid-19 that has been suppressed by Social Media and mainstream space. I understand that the topics might make fire alarm bells go off inside your head. But believe me, I’m not trying to place panic in your heart. I’m just sharing what I think is some interesting information that’s scholarly and well-presented and ought to be known to many. You can take it or leave it.
1 There is no evidence that a virus called SARS-CoV-2 exists or causes a disease called COVID 19. If true, this completely invalidates “testing” (since there’s nothing to test for), and the concept of a “Covid-19 vaccine” (since there’s nothing to vaccinate against).
2 Masks are unnecessary, harmful, and ineffective at preventing the transmission of respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2. This may not be the best article to share with your virtue signaling friends.
3 Health care workers in “hot spots” are reporting that they’ve noticed nothing like a pandemic. This UK-based frontline physician reports no excessive number of people becoming seriously ill, no excessive dying, etc. He also reports upon the neglect that’s occurring for people that really do need medical attention – they are not being admitted or treated because of the single-minded Covid-19 obsession.
The point here is not to get into “Why is Covid-19 being propagandized?” or “What really is Covid-19?” – these are subjects that I could ramble on about at length, and as such they should probably be saved for another time. The point here is to call out the propaganda machinery for what it is by using Covid-19 as a relevant example. The point is that you won’t see any of the above information about Covid-19 in Social Media feeds or mainstream space, and you may even feel a revulsion for it. And I ask: Why might that be?
Well…You need to decide for yourself. Here are some handy questions to ask when pondering what’s really going on in the world regarding any topic: Have I heard this same information repeated by multiple people and sources, using the same key words? Do I personally know and/or trust the source of the information? Is the information consistent with my intuition and experience?
Phil’s Two Cents
Throughout history there have always been families and groups that believe themselves to be superior to the masses, and they have always endeavored to bark out orders from On High and do as much enslaving as they can. They believe it to be their birthright and they get an energy kick out of it. It’s important to know they exist; Ignoring evil only serves to further empower it. My humble advice: Don’t assume that those who claim to be your leaders – be it by election, appointment, or heredity – have your best interests in mind. And take comfort in the fact that we’ve been dealing with this for thousands of years, and human dignity and liberty has not been squashed yet! Mark Twain and Lao Tzu (and many others!) have said it well:
“If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed. If you do, you’re misinformed.” – Mark Twain
“Get rid of the Wise Men! Put out the Professors! Then the people will profit a hundredfold over. Away too with the Kind Ones and those Righteous Men too! And people will return to the graces of home. Root out the artisans; Banish the profiteers! And bandits and robbers will be unable to plunder.” – Lao Tzu
I don’t know about you, but I like these guys way better than Brzezinski. Good luck navigating the waters. Believe me, I’m right there with you.
– “Phil”
