Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Top Image: Is an illustration of the base a huge Tree with double doors inside a pointed arch. There are two beautiful white wolves standing guard on either side of the doors. The doors have a carved medallion near the top with simple geometric shapes within it. The leaves on the tree are orange and starting to fall, indicating this is in autumn. There is a mist hanging in the air, in the surrounding forest. Second Image: Is a cozy interior view of a stairway against the wall leading down into large area with overstuffed chairs and soft lighting. There is a bannister made of winding tree branches. Throw pillows and throw rugs add to the comfy atmosphere. Third Image: President Trump is sitting at his desk in the oval office, reading some papers. Sunlight is streaming in from one of the windows behind him, illuminating both him and the papers he is holding. An aide is standing beside the desk, and looks like he is waiting for President Trump to read what he is looking at.
………………………………………………………………….
Celtic Metal? Yeah, it’s a thing. How about some Lords of Iron:
In this post, I will shift around between three points of view:
The Stephen Kinzer (NYT) book entitled “Poisoner In Chief” – a restated CIA cover-up of ACTUAL progress on mind control, adjusted for new disclosure losses on MK, and blamecasting MK away from socialism and socialists, both foreign and domestic
The Adam and Melissa Dykes film about MK ULTRA centering on the human experimentation aspects, but also unaware of ACTUAL progress in practical programming of human beings through drugs and hypnosis.
This is some major dot-connecting. While I don’t have all the answers I want, I believe that I am closer to understanding past and current black hat MK abilities.
Relevant Bible Verse:
The man who sets a trap for others will get caught in it himself. Roll a boulder down on someone, and it will roll back and crush you. Proverbs 26:27
I begin this update on my search for TRUTH about MK (mind control) with a series of four tweets, three of which Twitter will NEVER let anybody see. OK – maybe a few people. Enough for COVER.
We begin with Sara Carter retweeting one of her old tweets.
#AMNESIA?@AGLynch, fmr AG Loretta Lynch told Congressional lawmakers in closed door testimony that despite the #DOJ having approved the @FBI warrant and renewals to spy on #CarterPage, she did not recall the applications nor any details.
You see – I am reading the new Kinzer book on Sidney Gottlieb and MK ULTRA at this very moment.
Anybody who reads this book will understand – amnesia was and undoubtedly remains a “holy grail” of the CIA. The problem is that Kinzer – at least from what I’ve seen of the book – never got access to anything or anybody which violated the “MK ULTRA Failure and Abandonment Narrative” (MUFAN for short, no pun intended, OK, maybe just a little).
And – if he did – he would only try to disprove it. The signs of a CIA water-carrier are all over this one.
MUFAN is wickedly hard to get around if you don’t have both data and persistence, but if you DO have them, then MUFAN is pretty much impossible to accept. And THAT is where DA WOOF is right now.
Well, I could not help commenting into /dev/mulder, so to speak. Check out who else was on the thread, thanks to Sara’s tagging – both Loretta Lynch and the FBI.
Read the new Kinzer book on the history of MK ULTRA, but drop his updated, LSD-centric whitewash/distraction agreement with the "cover failure" of the earlier chaff release. Drug/hypnotic amnesia is admitted by Kinzer/CIA as one of the top holy grails of IC. Trust me, it works. pic.twitter.com/Zj52ZRyU8L
Then I decided to really start laying it down – though gently. Note my very cryptic use of the date rather than to just spell things out. Credibility. I push RIGHT to the edge.
There are failures possible when the protocol is not rigidly followed, but Sid and colleagues deserve a lot more credit than getting thrown under the bus. Ask WHY people would go to the lengths they did. Kinzer & Dykes (The Minds of Men) don't frame MK in its full 1947 motive.
Now if you watch “The Minds of Men” (see below), you will see that the interest in the subject of mind control which preceded 1947 has meaning, but that meaning is most easily understood in the big picture by STILL referencing 1947 – to be really cagey about things. You’ll see.
Then we go for the finale, bringing it back to Loretta Lynch.
As for more common abuses of IC, there is no more beautiful obstruction of justice than making sure witnesses honestly can't remember stuff they honestly don't WANT to remember. The chimp chorus sanity-signals to the fake reality of no God, but sometimes holy grails are found.
I honestly have mixed feelings about waking up Loretta from her innocent bliss of ignorance granted by the technology, but we cannot truly forgive without remembrance – even if we truly forget. In the end, we will all come out of this better if we accept the fact that we have sinned.
So – WHERE WAS I?
Ah, yes. Reporting on what I’m learning about REAL MK.
In the book
POISONER IN CHIEF,
CIA chemist Sidney Gottlieb, is reintroduced in his classic role as willing scapegoat. The TRICK, however, is that he’s not covering up failure – he’s covering up SUCCESS.
In a cover-up which works by fake betrayal of the original project, calling it a loser and a fraud that grifted the world, somebody has to play Judas. Gottlieb, weirdly, also plays Christ. The man who was most responsible for the TECHNICAL aspects of MK work, and probably least responsible for the “wet works” dirty trade-craft aspects of sentencing victims to terminal human experimentation, other than carrying out the sentences (presumably by drug overdoses), takes on all of the CIA’s sins. Safely dead, with all of the “medical errors” of early MK research dead along with him, things can now be wrapped up as “the sorry history of Sidney Gottlieb“, thrown out, and the whole forgotten and/or forgiven, while the Mengelian fruit of the effort – WORKING MK – neatly persists in secret.
The problem? FRESH SINS. Once the AMERICAN PEOPLE themselves began to wake up, and became an OPEN THREAT to the socialist occupation by our own CIA, fronted through the failing New York Times and the rest of our FAKE NEWS, it was only a matter of time until they turned the guns on us. While FAKING that we – the “Bad Americans” – are the ultimate problem.
After El Paso and Dayton, I have no reason to believe – NONE – that the MK technology will not continue to be used against American citizens – over and over and over again – into the future. Socialist politics cannot let go of any tool which keeps its minority viewpoint in power. The only way to STOP it is to reveal until we BURN THE ABUSERS TO CINDERS.
Pushing back against Kinzer’s sleazy update of the KGB-CIA’s mind control firewall known as the MK ULTRA chaff release is part of that process.
While I’m showing you the El Paso shooter and one of his handlers in the above picture, where MK aspects are only hinted at, through the FATHER of the suspect / patsy, it is the DAYTON killings that have all the hallmarks of intense MK usage.
Not only is there a highly classified DARPA contractor angle on the father and mother – not only is there satanic sexual stuff all over the shooter (one of THE best motivators for MK violence) – there is TRANS on the sister, which obeys the economy of events principle. While I have not yet discussed the important MK aspects of TRANS in great detail, I can assure you that the psychology and biology of “transgendering” have been long-researched by those who are “transforming” humanity. There is a DEEP connection between individual MK and covert psychological research in THE PAST, and the current public mass psychology of the TRANS agenda. Research first – mass action later. That’s how they keep it seamless.
And I would be remiss not to leave this beautiful clue here for everybody. The shooter’s sister, Megan Betts, a.k.a. Jordan Cofer (her toe-in-the-water “trans” name), was studying earth sciences at Wright State University, and….
….hoped to someday work for NASA on EXO – specifically “exploring the viability of life on other planets”.
Poor, dumb, smart girl. She never knew what hit her.
Yeah. Don’t expect this one to go back in the box.
So where was I? Ah, yes.
The Kinzer book is heavy on details about MK from the viewpoint of Sidney Gottlieb and the “official” combined “fake news” history of mind control. It is everything that the CIA wants you to believe, to their supposed eternal embarrassment.
What happened with MUFAN (reminding you again – MK ULTRA Failure & Abandonment Narrative) is that the narrative was so successful, many of us actually doubted the cover narrative ITSELF as being too “woo-woo”.
We FIGHT over the reality of the REALITY STRAW MAN set before us. Think about that.
This is exactly what you want, if you’re covering something up. People are picking and choosing from limited information acting as disinformation. Many people are doubting even that limited information. However, any smart collection of ALL THE COVER combines to a cohesive whole story, and the COVER HOLDS.
Taken together, what Kinzer reveals all sounds shocking and new, but it’s not. It’s merely a kind of retro-historical cover compilation of well-known MK ULTRA narrative that seems fresh.
What Kinzer does, to make MUFAN seem new and fresh, is:
include “everything”, so there will be “new” material for every reader
increase the murderousness of it, cloaked in “Bad America” narrative (NYT gospel)
make it all center on Sidney Gottlieb as a kind of tragic American Mengele
link the CIA’s LSD “suicide” scandal to MK ULTRA and Sidney Gottlieb
play up all Nazi connections, play down all other socialist / communist connections
All of this serves to position Kinzer’s take on things as “the new definitive reality of MK ULTRA”. However, to anybody who actually experienced Gottlieb’s work first-hand, and secretly remembered (and kept DAMN quiet) how successful it actually was, it is very clear that Kinzer is simply – either knowingly, unknowingly, or somewhere in between – helping to renew MUFAN in a sturdier way that can be used to pooh-pooh future reveals as part of a now darker, sexier, and more believable MK ULTRA project failure.
Seriously, I can almost write those future pooh-poohs now.
The Kinzer book accomplishes several things as CIA-DNC-DSA-NYT propaganda:
blames early CIA anti-communist “white hats” as the origin of MK ULTRA
pooh-poohs all Soviet and Chinese brainwashing – even the term itself
pooh-poohs the very idea of “truth serum” – which I know for a FACT works
paints MK ULTRA and the experimentation that produced it as unjustified
minimizes the importance of Sidney Gottlieb being a card-carrying socialist
covers up Gottlieb’s role as a cultural Marxist – the hidden pied piper of “acid”
covers up the successful internal repurposing of CIA by KGB (a.k.a. “KGB-CIA”)
not a word about exo or post-Roswell motivations, to maintain “scoff levels”
not a word about the embedding matrix of CIA interest in CYBERNETICS
fulfills the “bad America” narrative over and over and over again
renews old, forgotten, but effective Soviet and Chinese Korean War propaganda
diverts away from scientific core principles of REAL MK using shiny objects
diverts away from the pharmacology of REAL MK using “shiny molecules”
A beautiful example of what I now call FAKE PUBLISHING.
However, as you can tell from the above, the book also GIVES AWAY MUCH:
accidentally reveals how CIA was immediately hiding MK successes from the military, something which I always suspected
reveals what was important in MK success by AVOIDING ALL MENTION
reveals current American and global socialist / cabal / “allied bad exo” goals
validates key points of my own story on MK abuse, including the larger CA3 scandal
validates the core idea of KGB-CIA’s penchant for regarding political opponents or people who simply get in the way of their projects as “expendable”
validates criminal interactions like Mueller-Bulger as normalized in the Deep State
validates the reality of DOMESTIC OPERATIONS as normalized in “bad CIA”
throws enormous shade on ANTHRAX as a key totem which appears over and over in the larger cabal story, and the story of which may be important in bringing them down
reveals that there is extreme sensitivity on SOCIALISM and CIA (a.k.a. KGB-CIA)
Based on this final list, you can see why I *highly* recommend this book, despite it being a combination of whitewash, distraction, diversion, propaganda, and cover.
Kinzer has given us a ROADMAP into socialist reliance on MK, socialist embedding in CIA, socialist abuse of CIA, and socialist weaponization of CIA. All we have to do is simply read the book BACKWARDS and INSIDE-OUT as cover-up. If you KNOW it’s a cover-up, their strategy and weaknesses just FALL OUT.
Kinzer’s over-reach on protecting socialism in America and its secret weapon – the owned, pwned, and duped-out CIA, along with their secret AND public MK weapons – is where this book really becomes valuable for most lay readers. To the astute anti-communist, knowing how the book was written and what its objectives are, the book REALLY gives away a LOT.
However, for readers interested in the TECHNICAL aspects of MK, you will be intensely interested in what is NOT FOUND in the book, and thus I recommend the KINDLE VERSION.
Search on any chemical term that you think might be used in actual MK drugged hypnosis and psychological programming – things like fentanyl, carfentanil, valium, librium, chlordiazepoxide, benzodiazepines in general, and any other agents with known aerosol induction utility or amnesic properties. Because we KNOW that benzodiazepines REVOLUTIONIZED sedation, DESPITE their amnesia-inducing side-effects. They undoubtedly revolutionized amnesia as well.
NOT. THERE.
And yet, an espionage-aware and historically skeptical reading of the literature indicates that the KEY amnesic/hypnotic drugs were discovered *accidentally* in the WEST in 1956-1957, meaning they could have EASILY been discovered a decade earlier in the Soviet Union – in novichok fashion – in time for actual brainwashing use in Korea.
Now do you believe me about how much of a HOAX the “MK ULTRA FAILURE AND ABANDONMENT NARRATIVE” actually was? The KEY DRUGS for amnesia that are never even mentioned in MUFAN – foisted on us in the mid-1970s – were found 20 years earlier – and possibly 30 years earlier in the more psychologically oriented Soviet Union.
And I’m only a quarter of the way into this book. Think about THAT.
Now – one last point about Sidney Gottlieb.
SIDNEY GOTTLIEB MAY NOT HAVE BEEN HIS ORIGINAL NAME.
Yes. Joseph Scheider may or may not have been Sidney Gottlieb’s birth name. But it was definitely used as a pseudonym.
Yeah. Are you smelling the DIAPER yet? Oh, I am smelling diaper all over this guy. Add Kinzer’s OTT defense of socialism in this book, and I’d say we have PAY DIRT.
Kinzer says that Joseph Scheider was just a pseudonym that Gottlieb used for testimony. However, Wikipedia says that Gottlieb was actually born as Joseph Scheider.
Let’s move on. This next part is what REALLY blew me away. You’ll see why, momentarily.
THE MINDS OF MEN
Aaron and Melissa Dykes, the creators of a fascinating documentary – The Minds of Men – about MK ULTRA and the larger effort within which it fell, don’t think much of the Kinzer book. This 21-minute video is worth watching to see why.
Very important to note that CIA-Bezos-WaPo-Amazon kicked this movie off of Amazon for absurd reasons. That’s how over the target this banned work actually is.
The bottom line is that the Dykes’ work shows Sidney Gottlieb to be a scapegoat of MK ULTRA. It is very likely that Gottlieb was a WILLING scapegoat, in my opinion, and this is shown by the level of responsibility he had in the project, which Kinzer points out. Gottlieb knew enough, that he knew exactly WHAT to HIDE, and HOW.
So – once you get BEYOND Sidney Gottlieb, there is MUCH, MUCH MORE. And THAT is where the documentary, The Minds of Men, goes.
This film is very much worth watching. However, I will warn you in advance, it is NOT going to leave you as any kind of happy camper. If anything, this film will leave you thinking that the Cabal’s control of the world is vast beyond correction or even restraint.
You will be taken down one rabbit hole after another, and shown that “mind control” and MK ULTRA were really just small parts of a much vaster CIA interest – CYBERNETICS.
The Wikipedia entry for Cybernetics provides a good definition, as follows:
Cybernetics is a transdisciplinary[1] approach for exploring regulatory systems—their structures, constraints, and possibilities. Norbert Wiener defined cybernetics in 1948 as “the scientific study of control and communication in the animal and the machine.”[2] In other words, it is the scientific study of how humans, animals and machines control and communicate with each other.
Cybernetics is applicable when a system being analyzed incorporates a closed signaling loop—originally referred to as a “circular causal” relationship—that is, where action by the system generates some change in its environment and that change is reflected in the system in some manner (feedback) that triggers a system change. Cybernetics is relevant to, for example, mechanical, physical, biological, cognitive, and social systems. The essential goal of the broad field of cybernetics is to understand and define the functions and processes of systems that have goals and that participate in circular, causal chains that move from action to sensing to comparison with desired goal, and again to action. Its focus is how anything (digital, mechanical or biological) processes information, reacts to information, and changes or can be changed to better accomplish the first two tasks.[3] Cybernetics includes the study of feedback, black boxes and derived concepts such as communication and control in living organisms, machines and organizations including self-organization.
The word cybernetics comes from Greek κυβερνητική (kybernētikḗ), meaning “governance”, i.e., all that are pertinent to κυβερνάω (kybernáō), the latter meaning “to steer, navigate or govern”, hence κυβέρνησις (kybérnēsis), meaning “government”, is the government while κυβερνήτης (kybernḗtēs) is the governor or “helmperson” of the “ship”. Contemporary cybernetics began as an interdisciplinary study connecting the fields of control systems, electrical network theory, mechanical engineering, logic modeling, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, anthropology, and psychology in the 1940s, often attributed to the Macy Conferences. During the second half of the 20th century cybernetics evolved in ways that distinguish first-order cybernetics (about observed systems) from second-order cybernetics (about observing systems).[4] More recently there is talk about a third-order cybernetics (doing in ways that embraces first and second-order).[5]
“The scientific study of control and communication in the animal and the machine.”
Norbert Wiener is key:
Norbert Wiener is credited as being one of the first to theorize that all intelligent behavior was the result of feedback mechanisms, that could possibly be simulated by machines and was an important early step towards the development of modern AI.[3]
One of the key types of revelation in The Minds of Men regards human experimentation. Not only is it very ugly, but there is LOTS OF IT. Almost four hours just touching it at a HIGH LEVEL. Much of it centers on mapping the brain using implanted electrodes. This work seems cruel and wasted from what the Dykes duo knows, but I now believe it was NOT WASTED. Just knowing what stuff appears where in the brain, and what drugs fire up or shut down what parts of the brain, was likely KEY in understanding how to pharmacologically play with the circuit breaker panel, so to speak, and create a HACK into the brain which allowed rudimentary programming.
In other words, I believe the work was FRUITFUL, and if we want to turn this stuff in a Godly direction, it needs to be REVEALED.
Now – something very STRIKING about the revelations in The Minds of Men.
On the one end of it, you have famous members of the intellectual elite like Norbert Wiener and Margaret Mead, jonesing up the cybernetic revolution in New York City at fancy conferences sponsored by the Macy’s Foundation. The names – the players – businesses, foundations, universities, governments – it is all HUGE and OVERFLOWING WITH MONEY and utterly UNSTOPPABLE. As soon as I saw the MONEY and POWER behind cybernetics, I understood WHY MIND CONTROL MATTERED.
And yet these people were “reputationally” disconnected from the very people they met with at these conferences. The ones who did the real dirty work of cybernetics – the wannabe-famous medical scientists who did sneaky, CIA-funded experiments that could NEVER ultimately make them famous – only infamous – because REAL LIVE PEOPLE were experimented on like animals.
And yet, put it all in the context of Roswell and the headbands, of which I’m sure only a few players knew (Wiener, Dulles, Helms, maybe Gottlieb), and one starts to understand WHY such experiments were “green-lighted”. There was URGENCY on this stuff.
Earth – HUMANITY – was way behind. Anybody who received briefings of what was experienced at Roswell would have surely realized that RADICAL MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS in hopes of curing people while gathering precious data to unravel alien near-telepathic communications and programming were almost saintly next to German and Japanese experiments on prisoners.
Although – yeah – see Kinzer – we did THAT, too. *face-palm*
And speaking of unwilling subjects experimented upon, I would LOVE to see my data someday – I can really correct a LOT of it.
So now, let’s bring it back to
My Hot Date With Nonexistent Tech
After watching The Minds of Men, it is VERY clear to me now why my ass got run over by MK ULTRA. There were HUGE forces, on a schedule, on a timetable, to advance this world – and more correctly SAVE IT in ways that Stephen Kinzer MOCKS and LAUGHS AT (read the book). Do those forces justify SHOOTING and KILLING US NOW?
Well, I tend to think NOT. Just like I think that trying to kill two guys who BARELY got in the way of their runaway train was not justified.
And trust me – Stephen Gottlieb is not the guy who ordered my “expending” in 1981, at which time (same month!) a similar job was used on Ronald Reagan – PRESIDENT Ronald Reagan – and some guy named Brady to advance the SAME FOREIGN AGENDA.
Are you all starting to see why they would dump that Kinzer book now? I only have to remind myself of what I actually went through, and what this NATION went through, to get a wee bit pissed about this stuff.
It turns out that the RULES I thought we had to obey are a JOKE and WINDOW DRESSING so that people like you and me can pretend that we’re in a nice fancy moving restaurant – when in fact we are actually in a BOXCAR on a TRAIN on a CONTINENT on a PLANET in a SYSTEM in a STAR GROUP in a GALAXY in a CLUSTER in a UNIVERSE in a SUBSET of an INFINITY of universes.
As lying Greta – that child shill whose role I once played – says: “THERE’S NO TIME.”
No, not “no time to save the planet”. NO TIME TO SAVE THEIR MONEY.
Here was me, thinking we had to do the right thing, even if that meant slowing down a good, well-meaning, GIANT idea just a little tiny bit to meet reality, when – little did I know – a day’s delay in the MONEY was worth more than my entire lifetime’s work.
These people had NO USE FOR ME. They had even less use for the student who caused the problem. They needed us dead, and they TRIED, but they MESSED UP. And then the backup failed. And then the backup to THAT failed.
And here we are. My happiness just to be alive is schadenfreude, because I was, am and always will be a PEST to them.
What is REMARKABLE is that my story falls RIGHT INTO “The Minds of Men”. I won’t say how or where, but that is now my biggest nuke. I was SHOCKED to hear FAMILIAR WORDS in the movie.
If anything ever happens to me, just fit me into the movie, and crash the whole damn thing to the ground. Every Trump accuser and enemy in the “60% that won’t be revealed” will spill out on the ground like some broken alien doll-person falling out of a flying saucer and
JUSTICE.
Although maybe a bit too much. But if they want it that way, it could happen.
Little did I know, when I walked into my would-have-been life of science, I walked right into a hotbed of MK ULTRA research. Everything and everybody was RIGHT THERE to take care of the problem. The NAIL stuck up. The HAMMER was there, just looking for a job.
That hotbed is only mentioned tangentially in the documentary, but combined with other things, it forces me to realize that there was a NEST of practitioners of cutting-edge PROGRAMMING OF HUMANS at my university. A department – a program that everybody thought was PUDVILLE – was actually housing human psychological programming that this world would not even BELIEVE POSSIBLE.
And there is so much money in it, KILLING PEOPLE is part of doing business.
It’s hilarious. I remember being a student on a plane, visiting universities, deciding where I was going to go. The guy next to me – a regular, random guy – thought I should go to the university with the most research. I liked that answer. I listened to him.
And here we are.
SO – the following is what I currently believe about the human individual MK tech which is now in use by the black hats.
Pharmacological
it is based on initial access to subjects while they are incapacitated, such as sleeping
initial induction of anesthesia may be done with a fast-acting narcotic such as carfentanil
devices and protocols are designed for the operation to be aborted at almost any time without the subject ever gaining awareness of the process
scheduled operations are almost risk-free – my awareness was due to a string of misfortunes, accidents and errors, including likely protocol violations
they don’t like subjects having access to guns – hence the tendency of sides using MK to attempt accessions when subjects are traveling or visiting prepared destinations
white hat accessions may exhibit ethical aspects in both programming actions and the programming itself (gonna leave that as a generality)
failed employer or service drug tests may serve as indicators of past MK accessions
highly amnesic sedatives, probably benzodiazepines, are used in combination with other drugs which may include specific stimulants or depressants
the goal is to increase *particular* areas of voluntary brain activity such as speech, while decreasing others, such as CONCURRENT MEMORY STORAGE, to gain a state where a subconscious persona can respond to questions and the subject cannot remember it
thus, the drug combination and the parts of the brain affected are KEY to the target state
Psychological / Cybernetic
the implantation process requires entry into a highly hypnotic state not achievable by normal hypnosis
the implanted programming can be described as a kind of artificial obsessive-compulsive disorder
the implantation process involves a skilled combination of input and output, much like an interactive computer programming session
remote programming was not possible in 1981, but is likely now, using advanced technology to connect a programmer to a subject
AI will soon be able to function as the programmer, if not already
subject requires a motivation to perform scripts
success requires freedom from “showstopper” inhibitors of script actions
“unthinkable” is “undoable”
motivations can be implanted, within limits
some but not all inhibitors can be overridden by motivations
success is proportional to motivation
success is inversely proportional to inhibition
script executes or fails in ACTUAL environment, just like scripting/shell languages
script can be insulated from environment by creating “tunnel vision” and internal focus
existing intelligent sub-processes can be used to support missions
new intelligent sub-processes can be generated in situ
interrogation is used to find motivators, inhibitors, and other existing programming to exploit or bypass
event triggers are used just like value checks and logic tests in normal programming
like any hacking, the more programming has been introduced, the more becomes possible
subject ability to SELF-PROGRAM increases ability to be EXTERNALLY PROGRAMMED, but also presents RISKS of SELF-DEPROGRAMMING
hypnotic suggestion can close off access to memories outside of the programming session, but cannot guarantee against possibility of accidental re-creation of access
hypnotic closure can be breached by trigger creation if the subject accidentally gains concurrent consciousness in the session and this is not spotted and erased by the programmers
Now – to be completely blunt – I believe that the alien tech is way better, and has likely benefited from human research since the Barney and Betty Hill days. I also believe that the human tech has improved, and may now be a generation BEYOND what I experienced. Nevertheless, I think these “fundamentals of human programming” still apply, even if they are highly automated and compressed now.
Cybernetics. The CORE principle is that – carbon or silicon – it’s all MACHINES. But that means that GOD’S MACHINES – all of them – can love God, too. I am convinced of this.

Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: [Provided today by Cthulhu.] Mainpage image: VSGPOTUSDJT with a hand raised – it isn’t a wave or a warding off; his expression is not a welcoming smile or a scowl – it is an appraising glance…..with a bit of a squint because the shadows show him looking into the sun. He is wearing a dark blue suit with a blue and white striped tie and a prominent flag pin. Second image is our standard Monday Polar bear GIF – his front half is laying on the ground while his rear legs keep pushing him along across the snow. Third image is inside-the-cockpit video of the pilot of a stunt plane as it performs two barrel rolls in one direction, then one the other way. His plane is blowing smoke, and shows nice corkscrews behind him. Fourth image is a face-on view of a husky puppy laying on its side being chucked under the chin and cuddling into the hand.
The “We are praying for you” picture has our President standing at a lectern about to give a speech. It is a garden setting, with decorative columns (the WH rose garden?) and he is looking pensive. He is wearing the same tie as the mainpage image.
There are two “2 cellos” videos, then a little gif of a guy in what looks like a soccer uniform interacting with a computer cursor. Finally, with a caption of “Sometimes things aren’t as they seem.”, there is an SUV spinning its wheels in the mud of some rough terrain – forward, then backward, then forward…..until a hand reaches into the frame and reveals it to be a model car, which is “helped”.

Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is a fantasy scene featuring two gigantic trees on either side of a canyon, with a winding river at the bottom. There are two figures in swings, hanging from a large section of tree-growth that spans like a bridge across the canyon. Rivulets of water are streaming out from underneath one of the huge trees, cascading down the canyon wall.
In the distance, what looks like an early morning haze covers the landscape, with the golden glow of sun coming up. There is another giant tree in the distance, beside what appears to be a castle. Smaller trees and dense vegetation cover the surrounding hills. Second Image: Is a stone pathway leading up to an arched double doorway. The doors are set into what looks like bark at the base of a giant tree trunk. The doors have intricate carving and some small blue glowing lights, embedded in the carved design. In the foreground, the path begins under a tunnel-like growth of trees and dense vegetation…then opens up into rays of light shining down onto the path at the doorway. Third Image: Is a covered deck overlooking treetops and an expanse of large tree-covered hills. It is a comfy looking open room with sunlight streaming in. There is a green couch across from a metal wood-burning heater. Large bark-covered branches support the ceiling. It is a sunny view, with a lingering haze between some of the hills. Fourth Image: President Trump is standing with his back to us, looking down a large hall. At the end of the hall is a gaggle of press curs with their cameras and boom mics, waiting to bark at him.

Remember those nature videos…where the hyenas are messing with him. Yeah.
How I Finally Got Twitter to Show Me Rabbi Shmuley by Replying Positively to a Comment on an Antisemitic Timeline!
This is actually TWO POSTS IN ONE. And exposing Twitter’s psychological manipulation algorithms (well-intended as they are) is the SMALLER POST.
Let me lead into this with a tweet from Don Junior about Facebook.
How many so-called “errors” and “glitches” will it take before @facebook decides to do something about their far-left engineers who write their biased algorithms? Enough is enough. https://t.co/F1fRuwTduJ
I will just theorize RIGHT HERE AND NOW that Facebook, like the rest of current “mainstream” social media, will NEVER do something about it. Social media IS the absolute best way to socially engineer us, now that FAKE NEWS is busted to hell and back. This ain’t gonna stop. We can only migrate AWAY from control. HOWEVER, busting their political operations IS a way of inhibiting them – of making them BTFO.
And who knows? After MONOPOLY BREAKUP, Twitter and Facebook may spawn some new companies that actually DROP THE POLITICS.
So – without further ado – let’s bust one of their political operations. While teaching a more important lesson about DIVISION and THOSE WHO WANT IT.
I have been following Rabbi Shmuley Boteach – “America’s Rabbi” – since the 1990s. I was first introduced to him on WorldNetDaily – a.k.a. WND – https://www.wnd.com – where he had a column for YEARS, before he moved up to the big leagues.
Rabbi Shmuley is one of those people who is just a straight shooter with absolutely no hidden agenda. He says what is on his mind, but he does it as nicely as humanly possible. He’s very friendly to Evangelical Christians, and represents “religious conservatives” in general, although to be honest, he’s friendly towards everybody. He’s on the very conservative end of Judaism, but he’s as engaging with the non-Orthodox public as people at the OTHER end of Judaism.
He’s a UNITER – not a DIVIDER.
Deep-theologically – meaning at an abstract level, talking about God and Biblical fundamentals – I’m very close to this guy. There’s a rabbi I’m even more a fan of, whose sect got REALLY BIG, but that’s another story. My OUTLOOK on God always remains very old-school, even “proto-Christian”. So I always find myself going AMEN to this guy – even when he’s kindly disagreeing with his Christian conservative friends.
Anyway, I could have SWORN I was following Rabbi Shmuley on Twitter from YEARS ago.
Funny – I had not seen anything from him in YEARS on Twitter. I would not have been surprised if Twitter had actually UNFOLLOWED me from him – or (more likely) had a secret list of PRIORITIZED FOLLOWS and he was near the BOTTOM of my list.
Why? BECAUSE HE’S CONSERVATIVE. He may be very friendly with mainstream figures, even out-and-out liberals, but deep down, he is 100% conservative.
And then – all of a sudden – I see three tweets by the guy. Two that I noticed enough to LIKE THEM.
And then I thought to myself WHAT THE [blank] is up with THAT? How come I haven’t seen my favorite CONSERVATIVE (politically) ORTHODOX (religiously) rabbi – one who (look at his “About” page) is willing to associate publicly with ANYBODY (COUGH, COUGH) – a guy who shuns NOBODY – and I haven’t seen him for YEARS? And then it’s like he’s at the top of my feed. What’s up with THAT?
AH! Twitter simply couldn’t WAIT long enough for the ALGOS to KICK IN so that I wouldn’t notice what CAUSED their political algorithms to activate. Or – more correctly – to SHIFT. For the numbers to CHANGE.
Shortly before I started getting my Rabbi Shmuley tweets again, I had gotten a retweet of a guy I follow on the “Alt-right” named “Battle Beagle”. I typically see Battle Beagle in retweets, rather than direct tweets, but sometimes I do see his original tweets, so a direct tweet COULD have been in my timeline anyway. Unlike Rabbi Shmuley, who I never see, even in retweets. Until now.
Battle Beagle is a bit of an antisemite, but I’m not binary about these things. If you actually pay attention to antisemitism, and don’t just treat is as either one big concentration camp, or one giant dog whistle, one can discover an enormous amount of truth in between about human conflict and misunderstanding. So Battle Beagle’s relatively mild antisemitism “makes one think” – including the always-revealing question of “why is this person antisemitic?” He’s a “good follow”, though a hard follow, and a lot of truth in what he says, mostly about other stuff, or a bit bass-ackwardly, if that truth is directly underpinning his prejudices.
Yes – even the antisemitic stuff has a lesson. If you dig underneath antisemitism, there is always a STORY OF TRUTH – generally not what the antisemite thought, but truth nonetheless. The easy truths – generally realities that are readily misinterpreted – are used to harden the tip of the antisemitic projectile. The FULL TRUTH – the big picture of the whole battle, including the flight path and design of the projectile – that is more of a revelation about humanity as a whole, and not everybody will like it. In fact, it’s kinda scary. We are up against a BIG enemy. Huge and dangerous and HERE like you wouldn’t believe. But it is in asking WHY things are true – even the stuff we don’t like – that there is enlightenment and understanding.
Anyway, sometimes I am tempted to be a bit like Rabbi Shmuley and try to reason publicly with antisemites like those who comment on Battle Beagle’s timeline. In my experience, shaming people away from antisemitism works, but it doesn’t REALLY work. Cheap negative psy-ops are fast, but they are not nearly as effective as RATIONAL, POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT – which would include (COUGH, COUGH) finally showing me Rabbi Shmuley after hiding him from me for YEARS.
So let’s just finish THAT part of today’s lesson – what’s in the title – by spelling out the technical truth. Twitter has algorithms (“algos”) that can “peg us” on various things – you know, just like China’s “social score” horror does – and then they actually try to CORRECT US. So they said “OMG – Wolf is hangin’ around this Battle Beagle antisemite, and he even (see below) left a COMMENT for the FIRST TIME! We gotta FIX THIS SHIT RIGHT NOW!” So they look through my list of follows, FIND Rabbi Schmuley, and REACTIVATE HIM to the top of my timeline.
Yeah, think about that. I had to yell “We want Hitler!” in the crowded theater to get them to show me what I paid for – “Schindler’s List”.
Oy, vey.
I could write the software for this stuff, by the way. I can even tell you what the memo looked like that generated it, about “balance”. Heck – I can tell you what’s WRONG with the Twitter software – why ITS OWN LIBERAL PREJUDICES CAUSED THIS.
What we see is EXACTLY what would have resulted from a liberal mind attempting to “balance things” in its own image. The interesting part is how they did it – a kind of SEMI-AUTOMATIC MODERATION USING EACH OTHER. And when you combine all the little wisps of human intelligence, locked in code, the “deciding software” ACTS exactly like what it is – a human intelligence – in silico – conspiring to be our nanny.
Interesting stuff.
No, seriously – I often get the idea that explaining WHY certain things are understandable facts – NOT coincidence and NOT conspiracy (OK, maybe a DIFFERENT conspiracy than we originally thought) – might actually WORK to get people to realize Jews simply aren’t out to “get them” – and even more to the point why human psychology is largely the same, but history has put us all into fascinatingly different yet very real and not always nice streams of space and time which sometimes veer into – well – let’s just say “interesting times”.
Complicated business.
Nevertheless, one has to PICK THEIR BATTLES HERE. It is EXTREMELY difficult to reason with many – possibly MOST real antisemites, and – well – I don’t have any strong arguments against those who would say that I am wasting my time. Maybe I am. Nevertheless, sometimes I just want to blurt out on these Twitter timelines something like: “Guys – if you would just go after communists and Bolsheviks and socialists and whatever, and drop the ‘Jews’ thing, you would clear out all the toxic cultural Marxist scum and free yourselves from your media chains, without creating the very BACKLASH that pens you in like dumb animals.”
Those who have not yet figured out that DAMN NEAR ANYTHING can be hidden behind the “antisemitism” accusation are just SHEEP to whoever wields that weapon.
Go after THE THING ITSELF. Don’t go after WHO IS STATISTICALLY USED FOR IT. WHICH MAY BE A LIE OR A *FRONT* ANYWAY.
*FRONT* is emphasized for the future. “They want you divided” is very, very, very smart. It uses human shields like a CHAMP.
SO – back to the story.
I had gone onto one of these Battle Beagle posts where he’s talking about some Cultural Marxist vile adult cartoon called “Big Mouth” (Netflix – Obama – Susan “Mugabe is a Moderate” Rice – need I say more? – “adult cartoon” – OH, BUT JOE CAMEL GOES AFTER KIDS!) which features a moment where there is a ship that bears the name “S. S. Liberty”.
This is a reference to the USS Liberty, which was an American Navy vessel which was ATTACKED by Israel during the Six-Day War.
Yes, there is a weird excuse here, in that – in this particularly noxious episode of the show – a girl has her first period INSIDE THE STATUE OF LIBERTY! And that is why the episode is entitled “Everybody Bleeds”! Hooray! So all it is, is a REFERENCE to THAT JOKE!
This is what we call “cover” in the anti-communism game. They ALWAYS use it.
They think they’re SO SMART.
You can imagine the discussion that ensues. Or you can just check it out, until Battle Beagle’s account is inevitably (nevertheless, hopefully not) deleted. Here.
I have to admit – I was thinking to myself “CRAP! What the hell was [whoever] thinking when they did THAT?”
There can be reasons, but next ask WHY beyond those reasons.
Maybe it was a kind of weird self-deprecating joke. Maybe it was TROLLING the Alt-Right. Or MAYBE – just maybe – it was simply meant to do EXACTLY what it did – meaning to TRIGGER THE ANTISEMITES.
That’s actually the KEY to the problem, in my opinion. Dividing from cover is BRILLIANT cultural Marxist psychology. Anger and whip up the antisemites and SCARE JEWS AND ISRAEL SUPPORTERS at the same time.
Meaning that in the latter case, they SCARE UP THE COVER.
Provocation. IT WORKS.
See Candace Owens. It works for blacks, too. You have to listen to her speech. It’s brilliant. Is 2024 too early for this woman? 2028 for sure.
WOW. The idea that the "white nationalist" and "white supremacist" slanders are more about keeping blacks afraid and "in line", than they are about demonizing white Trump supporters, is powerful. https://t.co/dUYJgPs3v2
But let’s not go there just yet. You see it, though, don’t you?
The whole USS Liberty incident is a HUGE recruiting tool for antisemites. It will be debated endlessly like Pearl Harbor, Gulf of Tonkin, the Reichstag fire – whatever. It’s AUTOMATIC DIVISION.
Now consider THIS idea – which looks completely separate, but it’s not.
Contrived chaos is an enabler for psychopaths to gain power and control. Therefore it should not be surprising that they have formed cultures, institutions, and doctrines to maximise such chaos. Our job is to stop being so naive, and to understand their methods, so we can resist.
This wonderful Martin Geddes tweet is more about big social chaos (I can fit 9/11 into it very easily, with room to spare for Iranian and Nork nukes, and OH YEAH, let’s go even bigger and just say “nuclear fears” or “terrorism”), but it even works for smaller potatoes like stirring up antisemites on Twitter and Gab.
“THEY WANT YOU DIVIDED.”
Just keep repeating it. That Q quote is a WINNER for eternity.
HUMANITY as a whole is being KEPT DOWN ON THE FARM by DIVISION.
What’s happening here – at the DEEPEST LEVELS – isn’t “Jews rubbing it in our faces”, which is what the antisemites all want to believe in the comfort of an easy, small belief that a small force is arrayed against them.
What is happening is that Cultural Marxists – who I believe are FRONTING for higher and much bigger forces, shall we say – are sowing division, and the SHEEP are grazing on the poisoned weeds.
Anyway, there was a reply on Battle Beagle’s post that I thought was very astute:
That whole show, including the art style, looks like its whole purpose is to just demoralize and wear down whoever watches it.
This is a KEY realization. So I responded back with a Yuri Bezmenov video on demoralization, resisting the urge to lecture “It’s not Jews – it’s Marxists – and WORSE”. I just stuck to the greater truth of DEMORALIZATION.
NOW – this is critical. Notice that somebody replies to this, and tries to circle things back to the comfort narrative with old antisemitic memes. They WANT to maintain the narrative. “It’s not Marxists – it’s JOOZ!”
If it’s not obvious, this response is basically “Jews poisoning the well – AGAIN”.
Don’t look away. Look at it. This is how viral antisemitic memes propagated before there was an internet. The FEAR LEVEL had to be higher. “Your baby is going to die because of your Jewish neighbor.”
THIS is how they could CAUSE POGROMS.
We can SEE this now because we have the internet, and we have deeper understanding through what amounts to MODEL UNIVERSES.
“THEY WANT YOU DIVIDED.”
Now Twitter could VIRTUE SIGNAL by deleting the Battle Beagle account, in some kind of dramatic horror, but why on Earth (COUGH) should they? Not if they TRULY want to dig down under MODERN antisemitism and ACTUALLY SEE how it is being continuously fed OLD antisemitic MYTHS as a justification for new outrage.
So that we can UNDERSTAND IT.
So that we can ACTUALLY FIGHT IT.
So now understand – I just had an AMAZING teaching moment about how HUMAN DIVISION happens – how old memes lock us in to old myths and old stereotypes. And Twitter [presumably now] wants to DELETE MY PROOF?
I mean, some idiot can report it, and it’s GONE.
In fact, let me go so far to say that IF TWITTER suspends or deletes the Battle Beagle account as a virtue signal, then they are either ON THE OTHER SIDE or they are CONTROLLED OPPOSITION.
This was my response to Martin Geddes. See WHY I said this, and WHY it applies here. See WHY I’m saying “don’t be sheep, people. Figure out WHY this stuff is happening.”
Pay attention, people. Read this FIVE TIMES.
Recognize CONTRIVED CHAOS. Spot it by its enabling of power and control. Spot the things which promote it and USE it. Stop being naive – RESIST virtue signal response. Understand their methods – the SCRIPT. Don't go along – RESIST. https://t.co/XbCsAhzlNz

Visual descriptions for our dear Zoe, and for anyone else who may find them helpful: Header Image: Is an enormous Tree, fortified with an exo-structure around it’s massive trunk. The structures appear to have multiple stories, running up the expanse of the Tree. Flocks of large white birds are flying around the tree. The blue sky is filled with dense white clouds that give the hint of rain coming. In the distance are a couple of other large trees with similar exo-structures. Second Image: Is a stone path leading up to a door set into an archway. There is an ornate frame around the door, with single pillars on either side and a keystone arch above it. The door has an intricate carved pattern of circular medallions. Dense vegetation surrounds the doorway, including some rambling canes of climbing rose bushes sporting bright red blooms. Third Image: Is a deck overlooking a panoramic view of mountains and a valley. There is a wrought-iron table with a lattice patterned top and a large umbrella providing cover over it. Wrought-iron chairs with scroll patterned backs, surround the table. Nearby is a smaller wrought-iron table and chairs. Fourth Image: Is President Trump, facing down a gaggle of press curs. It is outside the White House, where they have been roped into a small area to contain them and keep them from shitting on the lawn. Fifth Image: Is Attorney General Barr, sitting at a Congressional hearing, with his hot body guard behind him. General Barr looks like he is fed up with the congress weasels. Hot body guard is sitting there looking hot, while scanning the room for any threats.
Caption under image says: C’mon General Barr, it’s time for some indictments. Pretty please. We’ve been good.

C’mon General Barr, it’s time for some indictments. Pretty please…we’ve been good.
The Moon’s distance from Earth varies, but it it generally WITHIN a quarter of a million miles.
Here is the “technical stuff” behind “quarter million”. And one of the best pictorial demonstrations I have yet seen, of why “super moon” is actually a thing.
Lunar distance (LD or {\textstyle \Delta _{\oplus L}}), also called Earth–Moon distance, Earth–Moon characteristic distance, or distance to the Moon, is a unit of measure in astronomy. It is the average distance from the center of Earth to the center of the Moon. More technically, it is the mean semi-major axis of the geocentric lunar orbit. It may also refer to the time-averaged distance between the centers of the Earth and the Moon, or less commonly, the instantaneous Earth–Moon distance. The lunar distance is approximately 400 thousand kilometres (250 thousand miles).[1]
The mean semi-major axis has a value of 384,402 km (238,856 mi).[2] The time-averaged distance between Earth and Moon centers is 385,000.6 km (239,228.3 mi). The actual distance varies over the course of the orbit of the Moon, from 356,500 km (221,500 mi) at the perigee to 406,700 km (252,700 mi) at apogee, resulting in a differential range of 50,200 km (31,200 mi).[3]
Lunar distance is commonly used to express the distance to near-Earth object encounters.[4] Lunar distance is also an important astronomical datum; the precision of this measurement to a few parts in a trillion has useful implications for testing gravitational theories such as general relativity,[5] and for refining other astronomical values such as Earth mass,[6]Earth radius,[7] and Earth’s rotation.[8] The measurement is also useful in characterizing the lunar radius, the mass of the Sun and the distance to the Sun.
Millimeter-precision measurements of the lunar distance are made by measuring the time taken for light to travel between LIDAR stations on the Earth and retroreflectors placed on the Moon. The Moon is spiraling away from the Earth at an average rate of 3.8 cm (1.5 in) per year, as detected by the Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment.[9][10][11] By coincidence, the diameter of corner cubes in retroreflectors on the Moon is also 3.8 cm.[12][13]
We’ve come a long ways. We’re still kind of a mom-and-pop operation, but great things happen here.
Hmmmm. Where have I heard THAT before? *wink*
It is a genuine pleasure to spend time with you all here, helping to not only Make America Great Again, and to KEEP Making America Great, but also – very importantly – to Keep America Great! That will be the task of patriots long after we go to those balcony seats for the best view in the house. So let’s keep on making THEIR job as easy as we can.
