MATRIX LOGIC AND REAL LOGIC

by Jon Rappoport

April 13, 2012

Some of you have queried me about my logic course, which is now included in my much larger product, THE MATRIX REVEALED.

The logic course is a full 18 lessons, with a teacher’s manual, detailed lesson plans, and a final exam. It’s not a seminar or a workshop or a quick “survey.”

Logic, these days, has been replaced in schools with a mind-control apparatus that involves the following:

EVERY POINT OF VIEW IS EQUAL.

EVERYBODY HAS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE WHOLE.

CRITICAL THINKING LEAVES PEOPLE OUT OF THE GROUP AND IS THEREFORE PREJUDICIAL.

If you favor this new formulation and think it’s useful, I have condos on Jupiter for sale.

The point of modern education, more and more, is the GROUP.

“Good people belong to the group.”

“The Group is everything.”

“If you don’t belong to the Group, you have a mental disorder.”

Why is all this emphasis put on the Group?

The answer to that question also gives you the reason logic isn’t taught in schools anymore:

The independent self-sufficient individual is being phased out.

The independent individual who knows how to think and make lucid judgments on his own is a threat to the EMERGING RELIGION OF GLOBALISM.

The emerging religion of Globalism is a fuzzy image of THE GROUP.

The hive.

The colony.

The nest.

The planet.

Mother Earth.

Some people think education has been hijacked for the purpose of training children to become robotic workers for the State. That’s partly true, but I beg to differ. Actually, education is the proving ground for the religion of the Group. That is its real goal. And it’s been the goal for some time.

This religion doesn’t need or want logic. Logic would be disruptive. It would differentiate one student from another. It would reveal there are ways to analyze information that actually come to valid conclusions. Logic isn’t fuzzy. It doesn’t promote the all-inclusive hive.

A year ago, I spoke to a teacher who was introducing his class to logic. He told me, “These are very bright kids. They’re all going to college. They said they couldn’t learn logic. They couldn’t do it. They had some kind of mental block.”

As we talked further, it became obvious that the mental block was an idea of THE GROUP. These kids had already been indoctrinated into “cooperative thought.” They instinctively realized that, if they studied logic, the Group would break apart. Each student would have to stand on his own, and that prospect was frightening.

In the religion of the Group, one of the key concepts is “the sustainability of the planet,” which is, after all, the largest group. This “sustainability” catchphrase is the leading edge of a vast movement to decide how you, as a UNIT, an energy-consuming UNIT, will be regulated in the overall scheme of things.

Your life will be ruled by decisions of the “wise ones,” who understand how to distribute all the available resources of the planet.

This is a perverse machine, but it needs to be presented as something soft and spiritual, in order to be sold: the “needs of the Group.”

I’ve actually had students tell me, in their fumbling way, that they have an obligation to think like everyone else. Or if they’re rebels, they have a duty to rebel like other rebels.

When I started writing this website ten years ago, I explained that the elite Plan was “ant colonies of the 21^st century.” I’m glad to see other people are catching up and realizing this really is on the agenda.

Logic is a sword that cuts through all that. It wakes up the sleeping mind. It doesn’t paint vague and pretty pictures. It has nothing to do with what the Group thinks or has been taught to think.

Logic isn’t a cooperative enterprise. That’s why it was exiled from school systems a long time ago.

I’ve talked to many teachers (I used to teach school) who tell me they lead their students on this basis: “we’re all in this together.”

It sounds nice, but it has nothing to do with education. It’s a con. It’s a way of avoiding teaching. Once a teacher walks down that road, he’s finished. He’s regressing back to being a child. He’s forfeiting his position. He’s involved in socializing. It can work for a picnic but not for school.

The cooperative spirit in the classroom is really the prelude to the religion of the Group. “We’re all in this together” is the initial sales pitch.

I remember, 40 years ago, I had an argument with a teacher who was very annoyed that I was attacking the “spirit of the group” concept. He was absolutely convinced that the atmosphere he promoted in his classroom was instrumental in making education work. He was deeply offended that I was questioning it. For him, it was inconceivable that I couldn’t see the value of “sharing and caring” in the classroom. Hadn’t I ever played sports? Didn’t I know what a team was? Hadn’t I ever experienced the joy of friendship in a group?

I told him many of his kids were scoring quite badly in his class exams.

Apparently, this was beside the point. He was heroic, he was a good guy, he was a cheerleader for friendship and tolerance, he was concerned about feelings and self-esteem, he was doing his best to make good human beings out of his kids.

I knew all his moves. I had heard them before.

They didn’t make a dent, because in my college days the most compassionate professor I’d had taught me logic. He was also the most exacting professor. He put his students through the mill, and it was exciting. And when, years later, I started working as a reporter, I was already ahead of the game.

A person either wants to think for himself—and knows how to—or he prefers the hazy hive-like existence of belonging to something that is less than he is.

It’s that simple.

Logic gives you the option of making the first choice and avoiding the second.

Shortly before I graduated from college, I had a talk with my logic professor in his office. I told him that, from what I could see, the whole path of Western history, starting from ancient Athens, where logic was discovered, involved individuals separating themselves from groups. This was the keynote of progress. These individuals could and did think for themselves and rejected group consciousness.

He paused for a few seconds. Then he said he’d give me a little friendly advice. If I started making a big deal out of it and shooting my mouth off—as I was prone to do—I was going to encounter unpleasant resistance.

That was 1960. The brainwashing campaign, based on The Group, was already well underway.

I finished my formal education just before the really big wave hit. The educrats and the elite planners were putting the finishing touches on their blueprint for “participatory education.”

Under that system, the students would be encouraged to believe their ideas and feelings were just as important as their teachers’. By extension, the students were really in class to make their feelings known and help lead the way to a more just world.

Like any social movement, there was a little truth in the notion. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have gained traction. But the larger part of participatory education is anti-learning. Learning is supposedly done more through some magical osmosis, the result of the students and teachers rubbing off on each other. “It’s a process.”

Slice that baloney any way you want to, it’s still baloney. And when the meal is over, the students have no knowledge of logic, which is the foundation for rational thought. They’re cut loose on a river with no paddle. They have an inflated sense of self-worth, and no understanding to back it up.

Out in the world, after school is behind them, what do you think these graduates are going to be attracted to? Anything and anyone who sounds like he’s talking about the GROUP, who praises and elevates the GROUP, who promotes the Collective, who emphasizes how we’re all in this together for a better world.

Only it isn’t a better world. It isn’t, because these half-educated young adults never became truly independent individuals. And because “better world” is the flag behind which sits the actual scenario: self-appointed priests directing devotees in the Church of Sustainability. All life, all resources, “for the sake of Mother Earth,” being guided and run from Central Planning.

Some day, unless we turn this around, these ex-students will be complaining, “We didn’t think we were signing up for this!”

Small correction: you didn’t really think at all, because you never learned how.

THE GREAT ADVENTURE OF IMAGINATION AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR FREEDOM

THE OTHER PART OF MY WORK

by Jon Rappoport

April 6, 2012

www.nomorefakenews.com

I’ve received notes from readers asking about the range of my work. They see I’m doing investigations of medical fraud and political conspiracy. I’m exposing various kinds of mind control and movements toward world government.

Then they catch glimpses of something quite different. I also write about the creative power of the individual. Not just his freedom, but his ability to invent realities—beyond the supposed end-all and be-all of the reality we share.

The two aspects of my work are connected. In my new collection, THE MATRIX REVEALED, the connection is made obvious.

But what is this thing called imagination, and why should we think it’s valuable, when we are assailed on all sides by people who want subtract our freedoms and reduce us to ciphers in their Machine?

How could imagination deliver power to us, when it’s looked at, for the most part, as nothing more than a pleasant toy for children who haven’t yet learned how to cope with the world?

Like many people, my childhood adventure of imagination started when I found books. Stories, novels. I read them as if they were food laid out for a starving nomad.

After ten years or so, during which I left them behind, I found them again, at the end of my formal education, when I started writing and painting.

Eventually, I saw that imagination itself was a transforming energy that had no limits. This was my real jumping-off point.

Far from being a tool or a mere plaything, imagination was alive. It was electric. It was the Niagara, from which all new discoveries could be made.

Years later, I met Jack True, the brilliant innovative hypnotherapist I interview in THE MATRIX REVEALED. He was coming to the conclusion that huge areas of consciousness were cut off from people because they had put their own imaginations into a trance state—and he was waking up those areas.

He saw that imagination is where we store our deepest desires, the desires we believe can’t be fulfilled and made manifest in life.

Imagination is a kind of Potential, in the same way that energy not in current use can be assessed as Potential, waiting to be delivered from inertia.

This power can change a life, can change anything.

As a journalist, I came to the obvious conclusion that one goal of the global Elite’s agenda was to dampen the Spirit of populations. Homing in on that more closely, I realized that the target was imagination. And people were burying their own imaginations as well, and then they felt deadened. They felt small. They felt as if they were defined, and were simply playing out the string in life, following a way that had already been determined.

Jack True was treating patients from the assumption they were already, in the core of consciousness, in a trance, and they needed to wake up by accessing their imagination. He was having great success. In some cases, his patients were experiencing paranormal phenomena, and were intentionally exercising paranormal abilities.

Through our many conversations and interviews, it became apparent that the paranormal was one sub-section of imagination.

A different view of the world swam into view. Populations, in various and not-so-various ways, were cut off from imagination, and they were suffering the consequences. People were separated from their own extraordinary power.

What we call shared reality is a kind of default structure—what is left over after imagination is forgotten and misplaced.

During those conversations with Jack, (1987-1991), I was seeing things more clearly than I ever had. For example, I recognized that my investigation of pharmaceutical drugs was also an investigation into how many of these chemicals dampen and tranquilize the power of imagination.

I began, not just thinking about, but seeing the world as a stage on which a single play was being performed over and over. The characters might change, but their range of creative power had a built-in ceiling.

And the emotional and spiritual consequences of that, for the individual, were enormous.

I would compare what I was becoming aware of to looking at a painting in a museum and suddenly realizing the painting had several extra dimensions that had escaped notice.

We have this innate impulse called freedom, but what is freedom for? What are we supposed to do with it? The answer boils down to: imagine, and create. Without interference. And far from being a silly little preoccupation, imagining and creating reality, when unleashed, transform a life in the most profound way. And can transform the commonly shared reality, too.

I went back and started researching ancient myths from a different angle. The legend of Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods and gave it to man, could be read as a story about “authorship.” The Olympian gods were trying to maintain a monopoly on inventing reality. Humans were supposed to be actors in the gods’ ultimate drama. Prometheus was breaking out of that shell, out of that cocoon, out of that defined monolithic space. He had found the truth and had given it to his fellow humans: the individual has unlimited imagination and unlimited capacity to invent.

The astrological signs of the Zodiac can be connected in a treatise about Time, sequential cause-and-effect time, and how a person, through imagination, can break through that confining dimension into the paranormal.

There are a number of these old philosophical systems, at the center of which stands the free individual, who can imagine and create with great power and heroically overcome the confinement of consensus reality.

We are so much more than pawns in an elite game, so much more than eternal victims in the grip of repressive forces. We are so much more than minds without imagination.

The deepest mind control on this planet has to do with the roles we ourselves choose to play. The truth is, we are meant to IMAGINE and CREATE and ENACT much greater roles than the ones we’re currently engaged in.

But if we’ve put our imaginations to sleep, how can we do it? If we think imagination is nothing more than a momentary escape from our daily lives, how can we achieve it?

If we accept the range of possible roles defined by our society and by the men who run it, we’re forever wandering around in the foothills of mountains we’re meant to climb.

So now you have a brief introduction to the other part of my work.

WE LIVE IN A FRAUD WORLD

by Jon Rappoport

www.nomorefakenews.com

“I’m going to show you the nuts and bolts of how the fiction called Reality is built.” — Ellis Medavoy, retired propaganda master, interviewed by Jon Rappoport in THE MATRIX REVEALED

March 31, 2012

Two months ago, I introduced my new collection, THE MATRIX REVEALED. I wrote about it. Now I want to write about it from a different angle.

People believe that, at some time in the past, things were different. There was once an era of no fraud. But that’s a lie. There has always been a Matrix, and its quality is walking talking pretension.

It pretends to be reality.

And because people don’t assume they can, individually, create their own reality, they accept this one and all its fraud.

The Matrix is a false idol.

And like all idols, it has tremendous esthetic appeal.

People look at it and find harmony and symmetry. But, as it turns out, people SEE HARMONY AND SYMMETRY because that’s how they’re programmed to see.

And because they believe the only other alternative would be imbalance and chaos.

When you study Geometry, you learn how to prove certain statements about perfect shapes. Logic merges with perfection. It’s a system. It’s rather beautiful. The mind and the eye come to the same conclusions.

Geometry is a metaphor for the Matrix. The mind and the eye, the thought process and the perceiving process fit like lock and key. A closed system.

Why create anything different? Why try, in the face of perfection?

Here’s another way to consider the Matrix. It’s resonance. It’s the blending of one consciousness with another, like the ringing of a bell that sends a vibration to another bell that then starts ringing with the same sound. You have many bells, and they’re all tuned to the same pitch. When the first bell is struck, the vibration spreads through the whole array of bells, and this unison of sound is pleasant. The sensation is very pleasant.

And suppose that somewhere there is a machine that makes sure every bell stays tuned to the same pitch. If a bell falls out of line, it’s adjusted.

If you have a million bells, and several hundred decide to change their pitch and rebel, they can. But eventually they will come back to the central sound, because they want to. They want to feel the resonance. And when they do come back, they will be the most devoted advocates for the central sound. Every bell making the same sound will, in fact, be their “political platform.” Resonance, the perfection of resonance will be their crusade.

They will say, “We never opposed the One Sound. We were only angry that every bell wasn’t dedicated to it. And so we will do everything in our power to make sure all the bells believe in that Sound.”

To carry this a bit further, suppose there are many people, working in different fields, on different levels, to make sure that the resonance prevails. And some of those people are actually adding sections to the machine that keeps all bells tuned to the same pitch. They’re making the machine bigger and more inclusive. They’re special people. They’re “insiders.”

In the 1960s, some of the most harsh and violent rebels seemed to be defecting from the central sound. Their friends and supporters thought of them as heroes. The amazing thing is that these rebels are now back. The very corporate-government embrace they wanted to blow apart is now their theme. It’s stunning. They now see that partnership as the end-all and be-all, a force that will bring the world into an equitable harmony of Collectivism. They are now soldiers for the Sound.

My road has been to expose the “special people,” the insiders who are adding sections to the machine that tunes all the bells to the same pitch.

I have brought to light how they build, how they add, how they extend the range of the machine.

In that way, you can see what is actually being done to shore up the Matrix.

And once you do see that, you begin to examine the lock-and-key programming that regulates human perception of the Matrix and seems to make the Matrix into a beautiful and desirable thing.

The central sound, the resonance is part and parcel of the programming, which makes people believe there is no alternative, there is no better way.

The central sound, AS A FORM OF PERCEPTION, makes the fraud that is the Matrix seem like the most beautiful thing imaginable.

That’s the cosmic joke, and on the other side of it is an infinitely greater and richer territory for all of us, for each of us.

MATRIX MIND CONTROL

AN INTERVIEW WITH JACK TRUE

MARCH 25, 2012. In my new collection, THE MATRIX REVEALED, I interview Jack True, among other cutting-edge researchers.

Jack was the most innovative hypnotherapist I’ve ever come across. His understanding of what came to be called The Matrix was unparalleled.

During his years working with patients, he developed methods of unhypnotizing people, because, as he said, “I stopped doing conventional hypnosis when I realized the people who were coming to see me were already in a trance.”

That was the turning point in Jack’s career. He spent the rest of his life working on that problem.

Jack was instrumental in getting me my first book contract, in 1987. The book was AIDS INC. He viewed it as “an attack on the medical trance,” and it did turn out to be that. [My book, AIDS INC., is included in THE MATRIX REVEALED collection.]

The interview below (one of our earliest) took place in 1987, after several prior conversations about elites and the powers-that-be.

There is much more I could say about Jack, but I’ll just present the interview–

Jack began with several remarks about mind control:

“First of all, if you want to know anything about the mind, you have to get rid of the idea of categorizing and labeling mental states. Psychiatry is based on that model, which is really a business model. It creates patients.

“And as the whole study of the mind falls more and more into the hands of psychiatrists, what the patient has to say about his own experience becomes less and less important. The psychiatrist is mainly there to make a diagnosis and then to prescribe drugs.

“So the patient believes less and less in the idea of HIS OWN UNIQUE experience. What makes him different and unique becomes less and less important to him. This whole trend is itself a form of mind control. You need to understand that.

“We have this crazy situation, where the very means to make a diagnosis and supposedly help the mind is really a form of mind control.

“I take a different path. To me, what the patient says and what he comes up with are very, very important. It’s the essence of what I’m dealing with. It’s unique. If a patient, in a light trance, tells me he’s in a field smelling flowers, that’s where he is. The field and the flowers aren’t referring to something else. They’re not symbolic. The field is the field and the flowers are the flowers. I’m not interpreting anything. I’m not making inferences. Understand? I didn’t put the patient in that field. I didn’t suggest he go there. I didn’t give him hints or clues. If that’s where he is when, in that light trance, he lets go of his buzzing thoughts and his distractions, then that’s where he is. I don’t put labels on it. I don’t think to myself, well obviously he has this condition or that condition. I don’t think, well, he’s remembering something from his childhood or from last week. I go with what he gives me. Literally. People sometimes have a hard time understanding that.

“The second thing is, you need to realize that mind control through straight propaganda, from the media or the government or corporations or schools, needs a fertile environment. People who act like robots or puppets or androids are easy targets. They just suck in information of any kind and spit it out. They believe what they’re told. But how did they get that way? How did they become puppets to begin with? That’s the real question. Are you going to blame upbringing, education, genes? Are you prepared to say that puppets are ‘made?’ We really need to think about that. Because that’s the straight Victim model. In that model, people have no free will of their own. They’re ‘worked on’ and created like little machines. That’s a very popular view, because people like abdicating responsibility for their own lives and minds. They like to go on and on about what’s being done to them and how it’s all out of their control. That view of things has been overplayed. It’s gone too far.

“There’s another way to look at this. Another side to this. People who live like puppets have chosen that role for themselves. It’s a role. The Puppet. It’s like being cast in a play. ‘Okay, we have the role of a puppet. Anybody interested in playing it? You’ll have to suck in information like a vacuum cleaner and accept it. You’ll have to put your independence on the shelf.’ [Emphasis added.]

“There are external factors that contribute to making a puppet, but that’s far from the whole story. It’s a role. It’s a whole way of living and acting. And once a person takes on that role, his view of reality shifts. Things line up differently. For example, the Group becomes far more important. Because there are other puppets, and they link together. They form a society of their own. They recognize each other.

“They tend to mesh into a network. A web. And this network gravitates toward accepting the most common and official explanation of reality. The network sniffs that out and buys it. They’re all playing the role of Puppet.

“Here’s the most interesting part. The network can ‘wake up.’ They can, altogether, wake up to something new. But it’s a FAKE waking up. It’s staged. It’s an officially certified waking up. For instance, a new social campaign sweeps the land. It’s now officially certified to look at a social factor THIS way. And the network of puppets sniffs it out and gets on board. Yesterday, they looked at that same social factor THAT way, but today, all of a sudden, they’re looking at it THIS way.

“Now, when people [who aren’t puppets] see this sudden amazing shift, they say, ‘Well, that’s a brainwashing scheme. All those puppets over there are being brainwashed by the press and the government. Yesterday, they believed X, and today they believe Y.’ And that’s true. But I’m interested in what goes on a deeper level. How the puppets became puppets in the first place. And part of the answer, an important part of the answer is, they CHOSE to be puppets. They chose the role. Individually chose it. [Emphasis added.]

“And once they chose it, they decreased their own available IQ, they dimmed their own perception, they adapted to the role. People can do that. People are very flexible. They can play out all sorts of roles, and they can make the necessary adjustments.

“So it turns out that a puppet isn’t stupid at all. He’s very smart. He’s certainly smart enough to know how to diminish his own IQ. That’s a good trick. It is. And IF he became aware that he chose that role, Puppet, and NOW he decided he didn’t like the role anymore, he could experience a rise in IQ. I’ve actually seen that happen. I worked with a patient who was brought in by his mother. And in the course of working with this boy over a long period of time, I watched him gradually become aware that he had chosen to be a puppet. It was quite something. At the end of it, he thought it was quite funny. He said to me: ‘I taught myself to be stupid.’ Well, he wasn’t stupid anymore. He went on to demonstrate that in school and in his life. The change was extraordinary.”

Jack and I discussed this boy for a while and then we sat down to do the formal interview.

Q: (Rappoport) Okay, let’s get started.

A: (Jack) Are people ready for this? It’s pretty far-out stuff.

Q: I’m just interested in what you have to say.

A: Well, that’s you. When people consider a subject like mind control, they immediately think about what “the controllers” are doing to their victims. They assume that’s the whole subject.

Q: And?

A: For 99.9 percent of the people on this planet, mind control occurs in a variety of other ways. So the question is: what’s actually happening?

You see, we have this word “programming.” It’s used as if everybody knows what it means. As if somebody installs a fully formed program in your head. A set of operating instructions.

Q: And that’s not so?

A: It’s mostly a metaphor. “Well, he’s programmed to act that way.”

Q: Whereas the truth is?

A: The truth is different. For example, suppose you put a program in your OWN head? Suppose you’re the programmer AND the program-ee?

Q: Obviously, you don’t think much of the term “programming.”

A: It’s too easy. I’m interested in what people can discover about themselves when they aren’t burdened with simplistic preconceptions. Do you see? If you have a package of ideas and terms in your hip pocket when you explore the mind, you’re going to find what you already know. You’re going to plaster over whatever you encounter with old stale conceptions. I want to get away from that.

If you asked people what they think goes on in the subconscious, you’d get a fairly predictable spread of opinions. Whereas I take it somewhere else completely. For instance, suppose I said what happens in the subconscious is ART. Suppose I said it was an ongoing process of building structures.

Q: What? What goes on in the subconscious is art?

A: Right.

Q: That’s quite an unusual idea.

A: See, I don’t think it’s unusual at all. You know what I think is unusual? People who walk around doing everything in their power to “be average.” That’s extremely weird to me. You’ve got millions of people in America doing that. Where did that come from? Was everyone so influenced by puppet shows when they were kids, they decided to grow up to be puppets? (laughs)

People striving to be normal are strange. We accept it because it’s happening all around us. People are “behaving normally.” You want to talk about mind control? Talk about that! If people expended a tenth of the energy they use to be normal on something very creative, a lot of problems we have would automatically go away. Think about the amount of sheer energy it takes to maintain that normal front day after day.

You know, there are a whole lot of people who show up at therapists’ offices because they want to figure out how to be normal. Average. They’re pushing that as the grand solution. NORMAL is their idea of how to have a relationship with the world. Do you see? So what I’m saying is that NORMAL is a front, a mask. And behind it, people have a different relationship with the world. That’s what they hide. They hide it from other people and they hide it from themselves.

Q: The idea that a person is creating art in his subconscious. Can you give me an example?

A: I once had a patient who was quite brilliant and knew a great deal about deep politics and various elites and their machinations. But…he was in a trance.

Q: What do you mean?

A: He, outwardly, was very active. Lots of energy. Involved in his work, and in projects. But he felt trapped. We did a number of sessions. I put him in a light trance. I didn’t sink him down to the bottom of the well. Just a light trance, so that all sorts of random thoughts quieted down, so he could relax. And then there it was.

Q: There it was?

A: Yes. He was sitting in a swamp. He was mired in something. He was very passive in a central area of his mind, his consciousness.

Q: You talk about it as if you could see it.

A: I didn’t have to see it. He could. He did. Eventually, he told me all about it.

Q: You mean he regressed to a time in the past where he became passive, where something bad had happened to him?

A: No, it was much more graphic than that. He began talking as if he were IN A LANDSCAPE, and he described it to me. It was like something out of a gloomy novel. Barren place. Muddy streams. Gray.

Q: Do you think he had actually been in a place like that?

A: You’re going in the wrong direction.

Q: What?

A: You’re missing it.

Q: What am I missing?

A: You’re trying to use conventional ideas to explain what he was experiencing. It doesn’t operate that way. He was THERE. He was surrounded by this landscape. He described it. I didn’t prompt him. I didn’t guide him. I didn’t suggest anything to him. The important thing is that, in this light trance, he found himself there. You can say it was symbolic. You can say all sorts of things about it. But what you say doesn’t matter. I go with what I get from the patient. And what I got was a description of this passive place and state of mind. It was encompassing. He had never CONSCIOUSLY been there before. But, over a period of sessions, as he fleshed it all out for me, he explained his state of mind in that place, and he became aware of it. It was profound. Not for me. For him.

Q: And then what happened?

A: Many things. He experienced jolts of energy. In his body. They would come and go. He felt various emotions. Frustration, anger, and that passivity. He saw energy.

Q: He saw energy?

A: In several different ways. At one point, he reported seeing sub-atomic energy. Fields of particles moving.

Q: What did you do?

A: What do you think I did? I went along with it.

Q: Did you think it was strange? Did you think he was imagining it? Hallucinating it?

A: You’re trying to goad me, right?

Q: A little.

A: So he’s seeing these fields of particles. They’re moving at different speeds. Some are slow, some are fast, others seem to be wandering around as if they’re lost. This goes on for quite a while. Over the course of several sessions. He’s really intrigued by this. Then one day he kind of shivers and says his mind and these particles merged.

He’s shocked. He says his own mind and these particles “got together.” Not just now, but sometime in the past. He describes this merging between his mind and these physical particles. How they meet and link up. How they form a kind of structure.

Q: What kind of structure?

A: Different configurations. Interlocking shapes. Geometric shapes. Symmetrical. Others are more vague.

Q: He’s interested in this?

A: Excited. He starts talking a mile a minute. He’s relating what he sees as if he can’t get it out fast enough. It’s as if he’s looking at some huge building or even a city, and he’s seeing pieces of it, and progressively the pieces are bigger, and they’re coming into view. Finally, one day he tells me that he’s figured out “how it works.” His mind and these particles have become joined. It’s not some sort of spiritual connection. It’s not enlightenment. It’s a habit. That’s what he called it. A habit. As if, he said, he was some kind of engineer, and he was building a structure. But, he said, and this is a key, he had been doing all this UNCONSCIOUSLY. Subconsciously. It was an ongoing preoccupation. It wasn’t just a one-time thing. And it took energy to do this. It took lots of energy.

Q: He said that.

A: Yes. And then I realized there was something different about his physical appearance. It was hard to pinpoint. But it was as if he had clarified. His features were more…vivid. I noticed his eyes were clearer. His gestures were more definite. I had the sense a knot of confusion had been undone. He told me this subconscious “building” he had been doing…he felt this mandate, this imperative within himself to “be this engineer.” He was a bit troubled by that, but he was also excited.

Q: This is VERY far-out stuff.

A: Again, I want to make it very clear that I was following along with him. I wasn’t guiding him in the slightest. It is very far-out, but not to me. You see, I’m used to having people tell me what they find, what they discover. I don’t care what it is. I’m just working from what they tell me. I’m not doing anything else.

Q: So what was the outcome of working with this man?

A: Well, I can tell you that his physical conditions, and he had a few, resolved in a dramatic way. He had a balance problem, and that just went away completely. His fatigue went away. He started to sleep well for the first time in years.

Q: Would you say he had been in a chronic trance, until he discovered he was doing this subconscious “building of structures?”

A: I would.

Q: Explain that.

A: This structure he was subconsciously building, on and on and on, was his habit. It became trance-like, the ongoing building. And it was debilitating for him. It used up a whole lot of his energy.

Let me give you a metaphor for it. Every day, you carry water. Okay? You’re carrying buckets of water to the same place. You’re digging a trench, and you’re making a stream. Every single day. But you don’t consciously know you’re building the stream. You get up in the morning and you go to work and you buy things at the store, and you come home and sit with your family and talk. MEANWHILE you’re still building this stream. And it requires energy and it takes energy away from you. It’s exhausting you. And it’s so repetitious. It’s no longer fun. It’s deeply boring. It’s wearing you down. And it eventually puts you in a kind of walking trance. At some level, it puts you in a place of accepting your fate, that you’ll be building this stream forever. You’re accepting that reality. You’re passive in that way. You believe that IS reality.

Q: So do you wake up from that?

A: That, my boy, is what my life’s work is all about. I’ve developed many strategies.

Q: Do they involve trying to dismantle the “building project?”

A: I tried that and I found it was unworkable.

Q: What makes it unworkable?

A: Well, if you’re absolutely devoted, beyond a shadow of a doubt, to building castles in the sand, and I come along and convince you to tear them down and stop making them, do you think that’s going to have a lasting effect? We can kick down castles and smooth out the sand, but eventually you’re going to be back at the beach doing it again.

Q: So if that’s unworkable, what then?

A: First of all, I WOULD SAY THAT THE HUMAN RACE HAS A VERY SOLID ADDICTION. THE ADDICTION INVOLVES THE SUBCONSCIOUS INVENTION OF SYSTEMS AND STRUCTURES. AND PATTERNS. So what I began developing were exercises I could use with people, exercises through which they would invent or create in new ways, in unaccustomed ways. In ways that would break that habit, that subconscious habit.

Q: Has it worked?

A: It’s working. They gain back energy. They sometimes lose physical problems. They feel different. They begin to approach life in new ways.

My comments on the interview: Looking back on it now, Jack was presenting a description of how the mind and reality “merge” in a kind of Matrix. In many later interviews, Jack goes further in explaining his strategies for transcending this situation. As you can see from his remarks here, he wasn’t making suggestions to his patients while they were in a light trance. That method didn’t interest him, once he decided they were already, in a sense, in a state of hypnosis when they came to him.

As a result of his training, Jack initially took the position that hypnosis and suggestion could change behavior for the better. Later on, he abandoned that idea. He found ways of getting patients to describe what they were seeing and experiencing on a subconscious level—and then using techniques that would liberate them from their “habits,” their unconscious and repetitious actions that drained away energy and put them in a passive state.

In the conversation above, Jack was intentionally NOT covering certain forms of attempted mind control based on induced trauma, chemicals, electronics, etc. He wanted, rather, to explore less known territory.

In another interview, Jack once said to me, “Some people think accepting reality is an advanced spiritual state. Well, accepting reality can allow you to be freer from stress, but all by itself, it eventually becomes a formula for passivity, repetition, profound boredom, and subconscious depletion of energy. You form a de facto religion of Reality-As-It-Is, and you worship at that altar. YOU GLUE YOURSELF ON TO REALITY and the result is a kind of weave or mesh, which is a trance, a hypnotic state. You don’t walk around looking like a zombie, but in a major place in your consciousness, you’re trying to abandon your immense creative power…”

ELITE MATRIX POWER

MARCH 22, 2012. Propaganda is a strange animal, because it often capitalizes on the genuine motives of people who, unknowingly, are being used to promote an agenda they can’t fathom or see.

For example, the idea of helping others who are in desperate straits—what could be wrong with that? And if they live thousands of miles away, and we are suddenly connected to them via the internet, via Facebook, via cell phones, doesn’t this constitute a new global community that can achieve great aims?

I’m not here to impugn people who want to help. But I am here to point out that ever since the notion of the Global Village took hold, we have seen a number of campaigns for Togetherness and Oneness that were designed or used to advance Globalism itself.

Globalism—a system under which national borders and sovereign nations will be eradicated, under which banks, multinational corporations, and elite organizations like the Trilateral Commission will set up a management-structure to run the planet, control and allocate its resources, and reap gargantuan profits—while diminishing the destroying the quality of life for more and more of the population.

Co-opting people and groups who may have noble motives is a strategy as old as the hills.

I could spend the next five years trying to lay out all the propaganda efforts that are in progress to “centralize the management of planet Earth.”

Consider just one: utilizing celebrities who, in various ways, try to forward the concept that the human race is “one big family.” Whatever you may think of this “family” idea, the point is, far above the level of celebrities, the message becomes something quite different: nations are evil; borders are evil; everyone has to share equally in everything; individual achievement is nothing; the group is All; the only way to secure justice is to put power into the hands of experts who can rationally distribute the goods and services of the world from a central planning authority; “we” are all together, but “we” are subjects of technocratic planners who will ensure that love and tolerance and diversity are translated into dispensing the essentials of survival as THEY see fit.

And of course, “the planners” are somehow, in some spiritual sense, supposed to be a reflection of our own noble aims.

If you like that fantasy, I have condos on Jupiter for sale at slashed prices.

Here is a backgrounder on one of the elite groups that is consolidating power to position the world in its orbit.

ELITE MATRIX CONTROLLER

THE TRILATERAL COMMISSION

ITS ORIGINAL STATED GOAL: TO CREATE “A NEW INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC ORDER”

Many people think the Trilateral Commission, created in 1973 by David Rockefeller to shape a new world, is now dead, a relic of an older time.

Think again.

Patrick Wood, author of Trilaterals Over Washington, brings us up to date at the August Forecast Review. There are only 87 members of the Trilateral Commission who live in America. Obama appointed ELEVEN of them to posts in his administration.

They include:

Tim Geithner, Treasury Secretary;

James Jones, National Security Advisor;

Paul Volker, Chairman, Economic Recovery Committee;

Dennis Blair, Director of National Intelligence.

In the run-up to his inauguration after the 2008 presidential election, Obama was tutored by the co-founder of the Trilateral Commission, Zbigniew Brzezinski.

In Europe, the financially embattled nations of Greece and Italy have brought in Lucas Papademos and Mario Monti as prime ministers. Both men are Trilateral members, and Monti is the former European chairman of the Trilateral Commission.

In the US, since 1973, Wood counts eight out of 10 US Trade Representative appointments, and six out of eight World Bank presidencies, as American Trilateral members.

The Trilateral Commission, as is clear from members’ writings, aims to erase sovereign nations and establish a corporate-banking-government complex that runs the planet.

Four years before birthing the Commission with his godfather, David Rockefeller, Zbigniew Brzezinski wrote: “[The] nation state as a fundamental unit of man’s organized life has ceased to be the principal creative force. International banks and multinational corporations are acting and planning in terms that are far in advance of the political concepts of the nation state.”

Several other noteworthy Trilateral members: George HW Bush; Bill Clinton; Dick Cheney.

Through the years since the Trilateral Commission was founded, major corporate interests have been invited in, via their handpicked representatives. A few: IBM; Archer Daniels Midland; JP Morgan Chase; Goldman Sachs; GE; Citigroup; B of A; Halliburton.

Wood contends that the Trilateral goal to remake the world’s economic order has been shoved forward in several key ways: dramatically increase US government debt; create a growing negative imbalance of US imports to exports; sell off large American corporations to foreign interests; outsource US jobs; but at the same time, greatly increase multinational corporate profits.

Obviously, in this scenario, torpedoing the US is a first-rank objective, since the American people are the strongest holdout against a globalist takeover.

Here, now, is a close-up snap shot of a remarkable moment, from out of the past, to illustrate Trilateral power.

It’s through the Looking-Glass—a conversation between a reporter, Jeremiah Novak, and two Trilateral Commission members, Karl Kaiser and Richard Cooper. The interview took place in 1978. It concerned the issue of who, exactly, during President Carter’s administration, was formulating US economic and political policy.

The careless and off-hand attitude of Trilateralists Kaiser and Cooper is astonishing. It’s as if they’re saying, “What we’re revealing is already out in the open, it’s too late to do anything about it, why are you so worked up, we’ve already won…”

NOVAK (the reporter): Is it true that a private [Trilateral committee] led by Henry Owen of the US and made up of [Trilateral] representatives of the US, UK, West Germany, Japan, France and the EEC is coordinating the economic and political policies of the Trilateral countries [which would include the US]?

COOPER: Yes, they have met three times.

NOVAK: Yet, in your recent paper you state that this committee should remain informal because to formalize ‘this function might well prove offensive to some of the Trilateral and other countries which do not take part.’ Who are you afraid of?

KAISER: Many countries in Europe would resent the dominant role that West Germany plays at these [Trilateral] meetings.

COOPER: Many people still live in a world of separate nations, and they would resent such [Trilateral] coordination [of governments’ policies].

NOVAK: But this [Trilateral] committee is essential to your whole policy. How can you keep it a secret or fail to try to get popular support [for its decisions on how Trilateral member nations will conduct their economic and political policies]?

COOPER: Well, I guess it’s the press’ job to publicize it.

NOVAK: Yes, but why doesn’t President Carter come out with it and tell the American people that economic and political power is being coordinated by a [Trilateral] committee made up of Henry Owen and six others?After all, if [US] policy is being made on a multinational level, the people should know.

COOPER: President Carter and Secretary of State Vance have constantly alluded to this in their speeches.

KAISER: It just hasn’t become an issue.

SOURCE: “Trilateralism: The Trilateral Commission and Elite Planning for World Management,” ed. by Holly Sklar, 1980. South End Press, Boston. Pages 192-3.

Although Kaiser and Cooper claimed everything being manipulated by the Trilateral Commission committee was already out in the open, it wasn’t.

Their interview slipped under the mainstream media radar, which is to say, it was ignored and buried. Yet on the Richter Scale of scandals, it ranked far higher than, say, Watergate.

US economic and political policy run by a committee of the Trilateral Commission—the Commission had been been created in 1973 as an “informal discussion group” by David Rockefeller and his sidekick, Zbigniew Brzezinski, who would become Jimmy Carter’s National Security Advisor.

Shortly after Carter won the presidential election, his aide, Hamilton Jordan, said that if after the inauguration, Cy Vance and Brzezinski came on board as secretary of state and national security adviser, “We’ve lost. And I’ll quit.” Lost—because both men were powerful members of the Trilateral Commission and their appointment to key positions would signal a surrender of White House control to the Commission.

Vance and Brzezinski were appointed secretary of state and national security advisor, as Jordan feared. But he didn’t quit. He became Carter’s chief of staff.

With this article as background…consider the vast propaganda efforts of the past 40 years, on so many levels, to install the idea that all nations and peoples of the world are a single Collective.

From a very high level of political and economic power, this propaganda op has the objective of grooming the population for a planet that is one coagulated mass, run and managed by one force.

Terms like “sharing” and “global family” and “together” and “diversity” are re-translated and used to elicit widespread support for what is actually the ongoing takeover.

If this leaves you feeling depressed, don’t be. The seeds of the real revolution are contained in the basic premise of Globalism, which is centralization. Clearly, the response is massive decentralization of power. Their vector runs one way; ours runs the opposite way.

I have covered these issues in many articles in my archive at www.nomorefakenews.com Eventually, decentralization gets back to your own power, your own imagination, your own commitment.

The amount of obfuscation laid like a blanket over individual power is enormous. It needs to be removed.

When free individuals form groups that do not encroach on or diminish their power, remarkable things can be done.

Recent history reveals we have come a long way down. But up is still there. It’s always there.

It never goes away.

Just as freedom never really goes away.

If you can even glimpse the tonnage of propaganda and coercion elites have deployed to saddle the individual, you can understand how resilient and resistant and enduring the individual must be—otherwise, why does it take so much effort to battle against him?

EDUCATION AND THE DISMANTLING OF THE MIND:

WHEN THE SOLUTION IS WORSE THAN THE PROBLEM

by Jon Rappoport

MARCH 13, 2012. The state senate of Utah has just passed a bill that will allow public schools to opt out of providing sex education to children.

A counter-argument is being made that, although there was once a time when our country abounded in responsible two-parent families, that’s not the case anymore. Therefore, education about sex is lacking. Therefore, schools have to step into the breach and supply what is missing.

Otherwise, children won’t know about STDs, pregnancy, contraception, etc.

Over the last 40 years or so, school systems, under the aegis of government, have expanded their role. Using “duty” as the prow, these institutions have generated enormous programs to teach children what to think about everything from aluminum cans to bestiality.

Because it’s “right” and “important” and there is a “duty.”

Translation: outside groups with agendas worm their way into schools.

If I were obsessed with four-legged critters on the moon, and I had enough money and political clout and media/think-tank/foundation support, I could introduce Lunar Critterology as a vital subject into every public school in America.

If I were Bill Gates, I could push the need for computers in schools, despite the fact there is no credible evidence that computers improve literacy.

I went to school in the 1940s and 50s. At that time, the focus was simple. You learned to read, to write, and to do math. The textbooks were often old and worn. There were no visual aids. The lesson plans in every class were step-by-step. Learn a new thing, drill it to death, take a little quiz, learn the next new item, drill it, take a quiz.

It worked. It may have lacked glitz, but it worked because the vast majority of people can’t learn to read, write, or do math any other way.

You can’t gloss over these subjects with a broad brush and a lot of personality or caring. It’s all about digging in the dirt, one scoop at a time.

Some people would call it robotic education. I don’t think it is. It’s just doing what’s necessary—unless reading, writing, and math are deemed unimportant. In which case, you have a whole new idea about what education is.

If you spend time in the classroom on enterprises that are supposed to save the world or revolutionize society or build tolerance or cater to kids who don’t want to learn, then you take away hours from the core idea and practice of what learning is.

When I went to school, there could have been a better curriculum for history and science, but all in all, the teachers did a good job.

Now, we’re in a different world.

It’s assumed that most children are operating at a deficit, and they need to be brought up to speed on morals, on compassion, on sex, on greenness, on hope, on race and religion, on global concerns. At age five, eight, 12, 14.

And a great deal of this “new education” is about cashing in, for book publishers, for educrats, for federal overseers, for busybodies of all stripes who belong to agenda-driven groups that want their say and their moment in the sun.

I say this is all hogwash, and I believe anyone who consults national test scores and current levels of literacy would be compelled to agree.

Education is on the way out.

A few astute writers assert that, perhaps 80 years ago, the whole thrust of early education in America was altered intentionally, to produce worker-ants for a highly controlled society of the future. With all due respect, I think it’s worse than that. Because now we’re turning out kids who are essentially confused, badly schooled, drifting on the wind, lost in a mind-territory of fantasized entitlement. They aren’t androids ready to work on some non-existent assembly line. They’re just lost. They’re riddled with self-esteem that doesn’t work. They’re consumers looking for magic credit so they can buy their way into happiness. They’re loaded with sugar and other chemicals that scramble their synapses. They’re not only unsympathetic toward work, they have no passion of their own.

Logic? Imagination? Never heard of it.

When I went to school, there was virtually no classroom disruption of any kind. And my schools were attended by an economic, social, racial, and religious cross-section of students. We weren’t striving for diversity. We had it. The relatively few kids who were out of control and resisted any kind of discipline were herded into classes together, and teachers dealt with them.

The public schools of today lack the courage to say, “Look, if you’re here to learn, we want you. Otherwise, you’re out. Goodbye.”

If you need metal detectors at the school entrances, you went over the edge a long time ago. No one deserves to be subjected to that kind of environment.

The bullying problem? It’s an industry now. People with degrees write papers and books about it, and task forces gear up to study it and make recommendations. It’s a structure of carbuncles on the body-politic of education.

Once upon a time, no bully was allowed to attend school. If he pressed his attitude and his actions, he was expelled. Period. It wasn’t a question of why he bullied. He was gone. Learning couldn’t take place as long as he was on the scene.

And “gangs in schools?” I’m sorry, but there are no gangs in schools. There are schools in gangs—that’s what you have when groups of kids with violent tendencies inhabit classrooms and corridors. If you can’t expel them en masse, give up. Shut down the place.

If you want to make schools into six-hour-a-day baby-sitting machines, call it that. Try to obtain public funding for it. Hire guards and nurses and cops to staff it. Put it behind barbed-wire fences and install those metal detectors.

Or if schools are really lunch cafeterias, run them that way. Free public lunches. Have kids show up at noon, eat, and leave.

If you think kids of various religions should be allowed to commandeer a room to hold prayer groups, call it Government-Funded God. Rent a hall somewhere and schedule everybody from Christians and Jews to Muslims and Buddhists and Hindus and Zoroastrians.

“Well, we have these kids who are great football players, and they score very badly on all the tests, but we need them on the team.”

No you don’t. Start your own community team. Make up a name. Raise money for uniforms and coaches. Form a league. If these kids want to stay in school—which is a completely different matter—they’ll have to learn how to attain grades for real.

And this long-standing rule about passing kids on to the next grade, no matter how poorly they perform? Graduating them from high school even if they can’t read at fourth-grade level? Because they need to feel good about themselves? Because that’ll somehow help them wend their way through life later on?

Invent a new type of school for them and put it somewhere else. Bring in tutors. If that fails after an honest attempt, teach trades. Some of these kids will end up making more money in a trade than Harvard business-school grads.

All of the above, by the way, makes a good case for home schooling. Unless the parents themselves were shot out the top end of their schools, long ago, ill-prepared to handle reading, writing, and arithmetic.

No, the problem isn’t cookie-cutter education. It’s no education.

Now, of course, hovering over this revolution in education is the wider government becoming mommy and daddy to everyone. “Because they care.” Because they need to do this “caring” in order to obtain budget money for their departments. Because otherwise they would be useless.

And hovering over THAT is the program to convert everyone on the planet to a status much like an eternal patient with an eternal doctor.

This program is advancing based on the notion that “patient status” equals “more controllable.”

“Yes, we have to control you for your own good, because we care.”

No, they want control because they want control.

In my day, the subject that was conspicuously missing from the classroom was Logic. Once upon a time, it had been taught to children when their reading skills had progressed far enough. It was usually presented as a series of fallacies that infected the process of reasoning.

A few years ago, I decided to write a logic course to fill this gap. My strategy was to provide basic background lessons and then launch into a series of text passages seeded with fallacies and flaws. Students with the help of their teachers would find them and understand how they operated to derail lucid thinking.

I offered this 18-lesson course to home schoolers, and adults who wanted to use it for self-study.

[Now it’s part of my new collection, The Matrix Revealed. See the Matrix banner on my home page at www.nomorefakenews.com]

Twenty-four hundred years ago, in Athens, logic was, for the first time, explained in detail by Aristotle. It marked the beginning of a new era for humankind. Logic allowed a person to peruse a formal argument, differentiate between premises and deductions, and judge the validity of the reasoning process.

When students are taught this subject well, they turn into detectives. They realize that articles and books are more than mere lakes of information. They can trace the progress of a line of thought, and see that authors are offering evidence that leads to a conclusion.

It’s an awakening. I’ve seen it resolve what was foolishly diagnosed as ADHD. The student becomes grounded. He accrues real confidence. He can decide whether an argument is valid or invalid. He can spot flaws and describe them.

Armed with the tool of logic, he becomes independent.

This may explain why logic was dropped out of the secondary school curriculum.

God forbid the educational system should be turning out thousands of students who can really think for themselves, and think powerfully and consistently.

Note: I’m not covering the subject of college education in this piece, but I have an interesting anecdote for you. William E. Kennick taught philosophy at Amherst from 1956 to 1993. Amherst has consistently been rated as one of the top colleges in America. During his tenure, Kennick grew disturbed by the quality of papers his students were turning in. So he wrote and distributed a four-and-a-half page, single-spaced document titled, Some Rules for Writing Presentable English. The cream of the cream of American college students needed that on-the-fly tutorial to come up to basic speed. What other students at other colleges were/are producing in the way of written English is too horrible to contemplate.

So now we come to the central thesis. The modern vision of education, aside from the hard sciences, is all about unhinging or un-gluing the mind from its moorings, from its focus, from its ability to track complex thought.

Instead, we have education as: socialization; community; relativity.

This last factor is key. No particular piece of information is any more “valid” than any other piece, no more important, no more deserving of respect. Information is a soup into which one dips a spoon—coming up with whatever is there.

Over the range of society, you get young people wandering around with barely a clue. They’re dissatisfied, they’re upset, they’re resentful, they’re mystified, they’re rebellious.

To a degree, that describes every generation. But when the legs are missing, when the ability to concentrate and focus is absent, when the reasoning capacity is vastly underdeveloped, you get a stupendous crash.

It’s worse than cookie-cutter graduates heading for an assembly line. It’s the kind of trouble that spreads out in ripples, requiring assistance from the State. And that is the revelation.

That’s the society that’s being created.

For the elites who want to run things, globally, it’s not enough to gather up the most dependent people in a net and bring them over to the collectivist side with promises. No, what’s needed is a machine that PRODUCES huge numbers of newly minted dependents all the time.

Welcome to the educational wing of globalism.

Scour every textbook you can find at any level in the school system of your country. See if you can find the conjunction of the word “powerful” with the word “individual” where the implication isn’t pejorative. Where the thrust is positive. I know where my money is in that bet.

When political and economic collectivism is the goal of a society, certain things have to be done with the school system. Individualism has to be discouraged and sidelined. Status based on pure merit, achievement, and performance has to be minimized. And the core courses must lose their discipline.

Instead, group socialization, random expression of students’ opinions (based on nothing in particular), and bogus self-esteem must take center stage.

As a former teacher, I can tell you it’s rather easy to make this momentous shift. The starting point, from which the whole campaign unfolds, involves grouping together students in classes who are operating at significantly different levels of skill and ability.

For example, try teaching geometry to 20 kids who scored across a wide spectrum in their previous final exams in elementary algebra. Just try. Follow your day-to-day lesson plans and see what happens. It’s like crossing a bridge with drivers who never learned the difference between the brake and gas pedal. Chaos.

Jammed up in that baffling disorder, teachers will tend to gravitate to social concerns. They’ll encourage, wheedle, praise, empathize. They’ll try to draw out “the feelings” of students. What was once a very straightforward proposition will vaporize.

The pernicious effects of elementary-school teachers having failed to impart the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic will explode in a tsunami by the first year of high school.

And what happened in the first place, in grades 1-5? The model of repetition, in which each new concept in a subject is drilled over and over, and tested, before moving on to the next concept, was abandoned.

When I was a child, in the 1940s, the model of repetition was intact. It was brick and mortar.

But somewhere along the line, the “person-centered psychology” of education was invented. Every child automatically became “special.” On the surface, this sounded good. It sounded like enlightenment.

But it was really a piece of psy-war. It glossed over the fact that, if each child is innately special, he/she doesn’t have to be informed of it over and over. He only has to be taught well and learn well. More than enough encouragement begins to confuse a child and make him impatient. He wants to get on with things. He wants to prove he can excel. He wants new knowledge.

The history of mainstream psychology can be boiled down to two movements. First, there were the experiments of Pavlov. Conditioned reflex. The human as machine. Then there was the therapeutic age. Endless muddled rumination on problems and difficulties, and the need for “re-enforcement.” Everyone is special. The child as beloved pet.

The arc went from robot to dependent. They were both gross failures.

When pet/dependent became the order of the day, psychiatrists proliferated their invention of mental disorders. ADD. ADHD. Oppositional Defiance Disorder. Clinical depression. Bipolar. And powerful toxic drugs came down the line, to scramble brains.

This is the real war on drugs, except the war is being fought against children by “mental-health professionals.”

Suddenly, childhood diseases which had been accepted for generations, which came and went and gave children stronger immune systems in the process, were claimed to be a horrific threat, and 20 or 30 vaccines had to be taken to prevent these illnesses. (I have covered the ineffectiveness and dangers of vaccines elsewhere, most notably in my 10-hour audio seminar, VACCINES, ARMED AND DANGEROUS.)

Thus the shaping of a new and false and debilitating image of the child torpedoed children and their education.

Creating The Disabled is the cornerstone of Collectivism.

I need you. You need me. Everybody needs everybody. Whatever germs of truth lie in this ideal are crushed, because the “need” formula is artificially built. It’s a piece of debased architecture, whose real purpose is the inculcation of a reason to abandon self and individual power.

Once, the Carnegie and Rockefeller line of force viewed education as the assembly line for turning out objects that would produce other objects in mindless fashion. But that has changed. Now schools are built to become need-factories, breeding surreal socialized graduates who contemplate how political power has wronged them.

The new sign of intelligence is this: how many ways can you imagine you’ve been cheated?

And here is the kicker. Surprisingly little of this contemplation reveals the actual methods of manipulation.

But then, why would it? If children are engineered long enough, they’ll look everywhere for answers except at their hidden masters, the ones whose objective was to make them into children forever.

Cartels That Run The World

February 8, 2012

The following information comes from insider interviews with Ellis Medavoy and Richard Bell, two people I interview extensively in my new product, THE MATRIX REVEALED. This is just a brief taste of what they have to say…

Major institutions on this planet that control Military, Money, Energy, Government, Medical, Corporate, Media, and Education are becoming, more and more, global cartels, horizontally integrated across national borders.

This is more than a top-down command process. It’s organically evolving. Three steps forward, two steps back. There is a great deal of competition among the components of a given cartel, but there is also cooperation. And in the long run, the see-saw is tipping in the direction of cooperation, as these entities realize they may well have more to gain that way.

I can’t stress too strongly this EVOLVING process. All attempts to merely assume twelve men in a room run the planet fall woefully short.

Instead, over time, people who lead a powerful institution (like Energy, for example) look out and recognize more major players, and in this recognition there is an impulse to compete and win and destroy, but there is also an impulse to build commonality and therefore monopolize the entire territory.

During one conversation with retired master propagandist Ellis Medavoy, I asked him about the extent of mutual cooperation in his given field, psychological warfare. He responded:

“Twenty years ago, I would have said we were all operating separately and jealously. Each of us was mining his own contacts and building his false pictures of reality for the masses. But then things began to change. Globally. First of all, more of us were pushing the same holograms. And because communication and travel were speeding up so rapidly, we were working a lot of the same venues. We would run into each other more often. We began to share information. I mean, it was cautious. We weren’t gushing with unbridled love, I assure you. The competitive factor was still strong. And we had fights. But through all that, we began to see through the fog, so to speak. We began to understand the effectiveness of cooperating. We would test each other with privileged information, to see if we could trust each other to keep it private. A tidbit here, a tidbit there.

“And you see, behind us, other groups were finding commonality, too. For example, in the area of medical propaganda, where I operated a lot of the time. And these groups saw they could join together for specific operations, on an international scale. They could push enormous lies globally, and everyone of their class would profit and gain wider control. So I would find myself working with a psy warfare guy from, say, France, or Germany in a joint venture. We would rub elbows. We’d be feeding from the same basic money trough.

“We’d both be briefed by a team of intelligence experts, and those experts would be of several nationalities. Slowly, I saw a new kind of umbrella structure emerging.

“See, suppose during the secret lead-up to a planned economic crisis [money cartel], you can distract everybody with a phony epidemic [medical cartel]. Do you see? Leaders perceive a reason to cooperate. Planners become more intelligent and clever. They reach across lines they never would have reached across before…

“You begin to see the outlines of a much more inclusive future structure. This is multi-front warfare.”

Richard Bell, another former insider, said to me: “People like to assume that money is everything. If you can limit the amount of money the public has, eventually they weaken and cave in and they’re easier to control. And this is certainly true. But on the other hand, as mega-corporations gain more power and range and markets, you have a clash, because those corporations, which are now cooperating in ways they never have, as a cartel in some respects, want customers for their products. They don’t want abject poverty across the board. People have to be able to buy their products.

“So there is a heavy conflict. It’s a conflict between elite bankers [money cartel] and mega-corporations [corporation cartel]. It needs to be resolved through advance planning, over the long term. So now you have these powerful men sitting down and talking in a new way. Other big-time players get involved, too [government, media, energy cartels, for example].”

This is just the beginning of what these people have to say about the Matrix in their interviews and how it REALLY works.
