The Three Layers Of The Control System

There are three layers to the control system which rules over us and which keeps us in a state of submission. These layers reflect the basic strategies that the rulers of the control system use to paralyse our ability to resist the abuses they heap upon us. The three layers can be arranged in descending order, from the most subtle coercion to the crudest.

The first and most subtle layer of coercion involves the the priesthood, which imitates gold.

This layer is subtle because it relates to the spirit. Here, the control system takes measures to sap the will of their victims, making them unwilling to resist or avenge abuses. These measures are made possible through being dressed in the trappings of spirituality. The incomprehensibility of divinity means that such measures, associated with the transcendent and eternal, are ever-effective.

One of the most effective of these measures is brainwashing people to think that, if they don’t obey the priests, they will reincarnate in Hell. Anyone disobeying the dark priesthood of the control system is told that they risk the wrath of God. The masses are told that they are morally obliged to kneel down and submit to the established powers, by divine order.

Spiritually brainwashing people to be submissive is most apparent in the constant preaching in favour of weakness and passivity. The top layer of the control system always preaches that the right course of action is to do nothing and wait for Jesus to come back, or to wait for the End Times. Meanwhile, the rulers of the control system wage war after war, massacring people in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Balkans, Vietnam, Korea, Europe and dozens of smaller theatres.

The priesthood admonishes us to forgive our abusers, even when those abusers have no intention of ceasing. In doing so, they condition us to accept being abused. Through the workings of the dark priesthood, the control system induces us to submit to evil. The trouble for the controllers is that, today, most people no longer follow priests, which is where the second layer of the control system comes in.

The second layer of coercion is the mainstream media and major banking and financial interests, representing the silver.

The dark priesthood works to subjugate people’s wills, but if the people are intelligent enough, they will see through the lies of false religions. This is when the mainstream media steps in. If the priesthood is there to weaken people’s souls, the mainstream media is there to weaken their minds. This mental destruction is achieved in two major ways.

The first is by spreading fear, uncertainty and doubt. For all the politicians crying about misinformation being spread by foreign actors on social media, the number one source of misinformation is the mainstream media itself. Mainstream journalists and reporters only tell the Establishment’s side of the story, normalising the control system and its objectives at the expense of the people controlled.

The second is by destroying the reputations of anyone who resists the control system. As soon as any genuine leaders stand up among the people, the mainstream media deploys every slur it can think of – Nazi, white supremacist, nutjob, terrorist, extremist, radical – to induce the masses to withdraw their support.

The banking and financial interests also play a role here. Not only do they fund the mainstream media, but they also work to subjugate the population with debt. The mainstream media normalises the idea of half-million dollar mortgages, and then the banking and finance interests suck labour out of people for decades. The average person’s gigantic debt makes them unwilling to take risks to upset the status quo.

The third layer of coercion is the law enforcement bodies, representing the iron.

If the control system can’t subjugate the population by weakening their souls or their minds, the population will tend to become enraged. The worse they are governed, the more enraged they become. If things get really bad, people often start demonstrating and protesting physically, by occupying public space. This terrifies the controllers of the control system because they’re afraid of a revolution in which they get guillotined.

In such cases, the control system sends the hard iron of the Police forces in to smash dissenters physically – a low-frequency defence to a low-frequency threat. Examples abound, most recently with the Wellington lawn protests getting broken up by Police (or, as Anarkiwi phrased it, the February Revolt was put down).

The layer of iron is the control system’s most fundamental layer. As Robert A. Heinlein put it, violence is “The supreme authority from which all other authorities are derived.” Although the control system tries to engender submission first with spiritual lies and then with intellectual lies, these both stop working once people become wise to them. At this point, the control system sends in the batons and water cannon.

The control system knows that the more subtle the control, the less resentment it generates, and that resentment is liable to spill over into civil unrest. Hence, in libertarian societies they tend to be reluctant to send the Police in to smash protesters. The smart approach – and the control system is smart, even if it’s evil – is to suppress the masses with the most subtle measures first.

The danger for the control system in the short term is that faith in both mainstream religion and mainstream media have never been lower. This means that general satisfaction with the control system has never been lower, and therefore that the risk of severe unrest has never been higher. The immediate future of Clown World is likely to involve more violence.

What We Need For A Successful Revolution To Be Possible

It has been obvious since the cannabis referendum that modern democracy is a failed system. In practice, democracy amounts to rule by the owners of the mainstream media, i.e. the international banking and finance interests, who tell the people what to support. The ongoing Parliament lawn protests are the most vivid manifestation of this fact. But it can’t yet become a full revolution, on account of missing a vital element.

The protests contain many of the necessary ingredients for a successful revolution. This is why the New Zealand Establishment is currently shitting its pants, sending all of their soft power (in the form of the mainstream media and the intelligence services) after the protesters. They’re afraid that a Mussolini might stand up and incite the crowd to storm Parliament.

The first necessary ingredient is a tyrannical system.

As mentioned previously, the Sixth Labour Government has an atrocious human rights record. They are currently violating most of Kiwis’ enumerated rights from the NZ Bill of Rights Act. Despite the excuses made by the mainstream media, New Zealanders no longer feel like a free people. We work long hours but still have no chance of making enough money to buy a home that we can raise families in. We are slaves.

Emphasising the tyranny is a horrifically arrogant and out-of-touch ruling class. Labour MP Michael Wood recently described the protesters as a “river of filth”. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is nowhere to be seen. Supposed Leader of the Opposition Chris Luxon threw his weight in behind the Establishment. The political class in Wellington don’t care at all about the suffering of Kiwis. They are above the law and rub that fact in our faces.

The second necessary ingredient is the people coming together despite all the attempts to divide and conquer them.

In principle, a ruling class can act as tyrannically as it likes, as long as it can keep the people too divided to form any solid resistance. Traditionally, religion was the divider, with barbaric or irrational religious practices deliberately promoted in order to sow discord. Today’s ruling class use identity politics to achieve the same ends.

What has really terrified the Establishment about the Parliament lawn protests is that the divide-and-conquer tactics pushed by the apparatus of propaganda have not divided the protesters. Whites and Maoris stand side by side, men and women stand side by side, young and old stand side by side, working-class and middle-class stand side by side. It’s the Establishment’s worst nightmare.

If a dedicated nationalist would stand up right now, and take command of the various strands of dissidence swirling around the Parliament lawn, they could easily command enough support to win a seat at the political table. But it won’t be a simple matter of storming Parliament with rifles and heaving the politicians out of windows. The alternative political movement is missing the third necessary ingredient: an alternative philosophy to replace globohomo.

There are two parts to this needed alternative philosophy. The first is an alternative political philosophy detailing how society ought to be run. The second is an alternative political structure. To both ends, this essay makes two suggestions.

A previous essay here described the two major political questions: for who and how much? This essay suggests that we ought to radically change our approach to the first question by replacing our current globalist orientation with a nationalist orientation. As for the second question, no change is necessary. We don’t need either more government or less. A change in orientation would be sufficient.

This leads us to national alt centrism. This political philosophy believes that globalism has failed, that the Establishment has failed, and that the alt left and the alt right are both dangerous extremists. National alt centrism is sometimes described as the “temple whore” of political philosophies on account of that it samples all of the other positions, and subordinates them all to spirituality. But it is the alternative political philosophy that New Zealand needs.

This subordination to spirituality is the second suggestion of this essay: that we base our alternative political structure on the Elemental Mysteries, in much the same way that the ancient Greek Golden Age took inspiration from their mystery schools such as the Eleusinian Mysteries.

Thus, in order to be taken seriously as a leader in the new century, a person will have to have been initiated into the Elemental Mysteries. The logic is that the ruling class must understand the Will of God before they can justly rule. Without this understanding, the ruling class will be motivated by base, materialistic concerns such as wealth, power or status.

A ruling class whose wills have been brought into line with the Will of God through the use of spiritual sacraments and initiation into the Elemental Mysteries will naturally comprise a true aristocracy. This aristocracy can be left to lead society into the future without getting hamstrung by pointless charades such as democratic elections. Plato was correct when he wrote in Republic that democracy was rule by lowest common denominator, and a ruling class comprised of a spiritual aristocracy would overcome the problems with that.

Of course, this essay is far from a complete alternative political philosophy. But it serves as a preliminary suggestion as to what such a philosophy might look like.

Ultimately, there would be one main purpose to developing this alternative philosophy: to convince the Police to join the side of the people and abandon the side of the tyrants. The Police are already aware that New Zealand is poorly governed and that a broad cross-section of society is united in disapproval of Jacinda Ardern. If they could be convinced to join the people, a successful revolution would be possible, and an alternative political philosophy is necessary before they could be so convinced.

The Mainstream Media Is The Enemy Of The People

The ongoing Parliament lawn protests are the closest thing that New Zealand has ever seen to a true people’s revolution. Kiwis from all over the nation have descended upon Wellington to voice their displeasure at the tyrannical way this country is being run, and at the wholesale loss of human rights we have suffered under the Sixth Labour Government. Some have been surprised, then, to see the mainstream media come out in full support of the tyrants.

Ever since the convoys first launched from the ends of the country, the mainstream media has been cheering for the Establishment and writing everything they could to demonise the protesters and their supporters. Some have wondered why the mainstream media has not been more supportive of the protests. The simple answer is that the mainstream media are attack dogs of the Establishment, and the enemies of the New Zealand people.

Examples of the mainstream media attacking the New Zealand people for protesting their mistreatment abound.

Stuff propagandist Glenn McConnell smeared Counterspin Media as “Far-Right conspiracy broadcasters” despite that Counterspin’s reputation is much higher than that of Stuff. McConnell claimed that Counterspin’s hosts and interviews “focus on disinformation about the Government controlling the press”, even though the mainstream press runs the Government line on every single issue, including the protests.

Neoliberal attack merchants Newshub ran a piece claiming that the protesters had stolen matting from a skate park in Wellington, taking social media accusations as evidence. An unnamed Twitter user wrote “that’s definitely them” in reference to a photo of some similar mats at the Parliament lawn, and this was held up by Newshub as solid evidence that the Wellington protesters are thieves.

Labour Party propaganda organ The Spinoff claimed that tow truck operators had been “inundated with death threats” from protesters at the Wellington site. Tow truck operators, all of who are working-class like the protesters, have been reluctant to tow away the protesters’ vehicles. So The Spinoff manufactured a narrative that the reluctance of the towies was due to death threats from protesters.

Jewish supremacist Marc Daalder predictably tried to smear the protesters as far-right wing extremists, claiming in one NewsRoom piece that the convoy protests were “a vehicle for fringe and even violent extremist ideologies”. Daalder’s shamelessly anti-Kiwi rant contains several references to “extremism”, “white supremacists” and “conspiracy theorists”, and totally ignores the heavy Maori and white working-class representation in the protests.

The pattern to all these hit pieces is clear: the Government must be obeyed without question, and anyone speaking out against it is a far-right-wing extremist who deserves to be smashed. Why does the mainstream media propagandise on behalf of the Government to destroy an organic Kiwi protest movement? The answer is simple.

The mainstream media is the enemy of the people.

The truth is that the Government controls the mainstream press as totally and completely as they control the Police, and for the same reason: to keep the people under control. The only difference is that the Police control people physically, whereas the press controls people mentally. This mental control is exercised by relentlessly destroying the reputations of anyone who speaks out against the control system.

The mainstream media are paid by their owners to divide and conquer the people, to set the people against each other and to cause infighting. There are two major ways they do this: by spreading false narratives and by spreading fear. These two ways often work in unison.

The false narratives are generally intended to distract from the class narrative, and the most popular of these distractions is the race narrative. Every time there’s a race war angle that can be exploited, it is exploited. Just this week a high school student in Otago had her hijab pulled off, and it made front-page news. Students are beaten up every day in New Zealand high schools, but this doesn’t get reported on because there’s no race-hate angle to push.

The mainstream media loves most of all to combine false narratives with fearmongering, as they have done with the coronavirus narrative. Much like the racial narrative, the coronavirus narrative declares that a significant proportion of the population are subhuman on account of that they think incorrectly and that their wrongthinking endangers the rest of us.

Tyranny cannot exist without the support of the mindless masses. To that end, tyranny has to be normalised before it can be accepted. It’s a feature of every tyranny that the mainstream media serves as their propaganda arm, propagandising for acceptance of tyrannical actions and against the tyranny’s enemies.

The current situation in New Zealand – where the corporate media agitates against dissidents on behalf of the Government – is textbook fascism. The Government and the mainstream media work hand-in-hand to keep the Kiwi people suppressed. That mainstream media, then, is clearly the enemy of the Kiwi people, as they are the enemy of all nations ruled by globalist interests.

Government MP Michael Wood was quoted in Hansard today as stating “I would say that there is a river of genuine fascism in parts of the event that we see out the front of this Parliament today.” This is partially true. The full truth is that the fascism is displayed by the New Zealand Government when they set the Police and the mainstream media against the New Zealand people.

Ranks Of The Soldiers Of The Information War

Edward Bernays wrote about the need to manipulate the perceptions of others if we are to shape human behaviour in our favour. But, because different people have different ideas about how society ought to be run, there is conflict over who gets to manipulate perceptions, who gets their perceptions manipulated and to what degree. As such, we live in a state of informational warfare, which could be said to constitute a Third World War.

The ranks of this information war relate to the amount of influence a person has in shaping the perceptions of others. This essay describes a simple base-4 logarithmic scale that ranges from the most passive and receptive consumer of media to the most influential producer of media.

To act as someone’s main source of information means that a media channel sets the agenda for that person, shaping their basic reality. It tells them what to worry about, who to hate, and what to talk about with their peers. If it’s quality media, it will also tell them what will happen in the future or give them hidden insights into the nature of either the physical or metaphysical world.

As a basic rule of thumb, a media will be the main source of information for a number of people equal to the number of subscribers to that media divided by the average total number of media those subscribers are subscribed to. So a FaceBook channel with 1,000 subscribers, and to which the average subscriber is also subscribed to about 50 other media, will control the perceptions of about 20 people.

Another way of looking at it is that the average person consumes media for between 300 and 500 minutes every day. Taking 400 minutes as an average, that means that controlling 400 minutes of eyeball time is the equivalent of controlling the perceptions of one person. Therefore, a content creator whose content is viewed for 8,000 minutes per day will control the perceptions of about 20 people.

Yet another way of looking at it is in terms of votes. How many people’s voting decisions does this media control? After all, the main benefit of controlling a person’s voting choice is that it means you can destroy your enemies with the arms of the State, namely the Police and the other security services. As such, you have a strong incentive to try to climb as high as possible in the hierarchy of information warriors.

0. Cannon fodder/Civilian.

People at this level don’t even know there’s a war on. For them, war is something fought with bombs and machine guns, and those aren’t killing people right now, therefore there’s no war on. Any talk about informational warfare is “conspiracy theory”. People in this category range from the borderline skeptical at one end to those who believe 100% of what the television says at the other.

The cannon fodder in the information wars are those who watch the television news, listen to the radio or mindlessly click through YouTube, FaceBook and Twitter. They are the receptive principle that is battled for by the ranking officers of the information war: the middle-aged soap opera-watching housewives of the digital age.

1. Corporal (control 1-4 viewers)

This level is when a person controls the perceptions of a handful of other people as well as themselves. It corresponds to Aristotle’s idea that the head of a household was the basic unit of political structure. It’s roughly the amount of influence wielded by a part-time op-ed writer for a small town newspaper – just enough to tip the balance for a few people.

Someone at this level will control up to 1,600 minutes of eyeball time every day. This is like having one article of 800 words read 320 times, roughly the rate of a high-quality post on a decent-sized Internet forum. It might be equal to the ability to make a handful of sales per day.

2. Sergeant (control 5-16 viewers)

This level is equivalent to a person who has moderatorship of one medium FaceBook page or Telegram channel, or ownership of one small FaceBook page or Telegram channel. Someone at this level will control up to 6,400 minutes of eyeball time every day. This is like having 1,280 reads on one’s articles.

A person at the sergeant rank of information warrior should be able to influence others to further propaganda from the sergeant on their own initiative. This means that at least some other people will seek out the sergeant for information, and will repeat that information to others.

3. Lieutenant (control 17-64 viewers)

Someone at this level will control up to 25,600 minutes of eyeball time every day. Assuming two minutes of reading time per page, this is like having 12,800 pages of one’s material read in book form per day. If all this reading was done on Amazon under the Kindle program, it would pay some $US80 per day.

It’s a level of influence roughly equivalent to the amount wielded by a clan representative at a council meeting of village leaders, i.e. someone who represented half a dozen or so families. Someone at this rank will be expected to create original content and disseminate it to followers.

4. Captain (control 65-256 viewers)

Someone at this level will control up to 100,000 minutes of eyeball time every day. This is the equivalent of someone’s 800-word article being read by 20,000 people, or someone’s 10-minute-long video being seen by 10,000 people. It’s enough influence to rile several dozen people up into action.

It’s roughly equivalent to having up to 50,000 pages of your material read on the Amazon Kindle program per day, which would easily pay enough money to live on in most parts of the West. This is a significant amount of influence, because it means that someone at this rank can work as a full-time propagandist (or information warrior).

5. Major (control 257-1,000 viewers)

To rank as a major in the information war means to be the main source of information for between 257 and 1,000 people. This is about the amount of influence wielded by one news anchor or chief journalist at a regional (i.e. subnational) television station, or by a YouTuber at the top of a small niche.

The larger bloggers are at this level, those getting at least 100,000 hits a day. They are comparable to majors because they will direct the perceptions of dozens of people who will themselves go on to direct the perceptions of dozens of others each. To fully control the perceptions of around 1,000 people is the equivalent of partially controlling the perceptions of a few tens of thousands.

6. Brigadier (control 1,001-4,000 viewers)

Such a person would be the main source of information for between 1,001 and 4,000 viewers. This equals roughly a million minutes of daily eyeball time, like holding the attention of a small city for long enough to recite a civil defence broadcast.

Being a contributor to the single most-received media in a major city or minor country would qualify a person for this rank. It reflects a significant level of responsibility, as someone at this rank will themselves control the equivalent of half a dozen full-time information warriors. A brigadier ought to be able to summon enough warriors to significantly alter public perception on minor topics.

7. Colonel (control 4,001 to 16,000 viewers)

A colonel in the information war controls several millions of hours of eyeball time per day. This means that their content either has a minor global presence or a major presence in a major country. Such a person will have many tens of thousands of other people discussing them and their propaganda on a daily basis, all around the world.

Information warriors at the rank of colonel will heavily influence those who themselves have significant media influence. Legions of people will come to them directly every day to hear what the agenda is, or what to think about certain major issues.

Examples of colonels in the information war would be Alex Jones or Jordan Peterson.

8. General (control 16,001+ viewers)

A general is the highest rank of the information war. The perceptions of the whole world are effectively under the control of people at this rank. Such a person would either be a global celebrity reknown for their opinions, or in charge of a major global media channel, such as chief editors of the most influential global magazines, or chief directors of major 24/7 television news channels.

Some might argue that controlling the perceptions of 20,000 people isn’t really very many, but most people’s perceptions are already tightly controlled by previous influences over the course of their lives and, as such, can only be influenced to a limited degree. So a person who ultimately controls the decisions made by 20,000 or more people is extremely powerful. It’s the equivalent of partial control over the perceptions of millions.

An example of someone at this level would be Joe Rogan.

The main network television news in New Zealand gets 750,000 viewers a day for a 60-minute program. Assuming that 30 minutes is watched of that program on average, that equals 22,500,ooo eyeball-minutes, or perceptual control over more than 50,000 people. The hundreds of people who work on these broadcasts would reflect the efforts of several colonels working together with their many underlings.
