At some point I’m going to get on here and write somewhat intelligently about the idea that the new frontier in warfare is the mind, and what that is beginning to look like for us.

You can make the argument that the frontier in warfare has always been the mind but I think we have seen how that has accelerated lately, how much concentrated effort has been put into disinformation, how the strategy is not to arm people but to make them want to take up arms

I think I have a unique perspective of this as a survivor of mind control myself. I look at MAGAs now and it seems so far removed but I remember literally clawing the walls to do a programmer’s bidding like Kilgrave’s victims in Jessica Jones

It really is an addiction, or at least it was for me.

I remember reading this bit of an article by @rustyrockets and feeling what he describes when I was watching #JessicaJones - envious of my former self who still got to claw the walls to be submissive. spectator.co.uk/article/russel…

The addiction is to a fantasy world where you are not responsible for your own life but merely for how well you follow another person’s orders. They become your entire universe. Because the real world and your responsibility for your experience of it is too much to handle.

Of course this brings in the topic of “what is addiction” which after much research, thought, and consideration I have come to define as “a pattern of behavior overlearned beyond its usefulness.”

In me this was a fawn response behavior repeated and overlearned and reinforced and hardwired into me so purposefully by those who benefited from it that it became my default response in nearly every situation and even took over my sexual identity.

This isn’t even the bulk of what I want to discuss about it; it’s just the background.

What I mean to say is I can see pretty clearly now when a person isn’t “in” the world, so to speak - that their entire system has been hijacked by a program.

This is how you get an armed man storming the nonexistent basement of a pizza place.

You can see it in their eyes, usually - they’re not all “here.” They’re in a different version of reality. One in which walking off with the speaker’s podium is something you gleefully selfie.

All I’m saying is we have to start recognizing that there are different planes and levels of consciousness and it is entirely possible for our minds to become slaves to a program without our being conscious of it. Only then can we truly understand the problem that’s been created.

I was actually in some ways quite conscious of my mind control; I just wasn’t fully informed about the effects it would have. I thought it was a harmless game, a BDSM lifestyle, a pact I willingly made in exchange for not having to make my own decisions.

Let me tell you, that shit was still on me seven years after my breakup. It informed how I behaved in subsequent relationships. I mistook it for my personality until it was undone and I could finally see myself outside it.

In some ways you can say this of all our conditioning throughout our lives, that shedding it is what a spiritual awakening is.

Imo it’s more dangerous to see mind control as part of our regular conditioning than it is to see all our conditioning as subtle forms of mind control.

When we start to see all our conditioning as subtle forms of mind control it’s easy to see how certain ideas, implanted with purposeful hooks and repeated over and over, can start to take over and drown out other aspects of consciousness

What sets the Qs/MAGAs apart was how purposefully accelerated and amplified this process became. We have to look at why the other aspects of their consciousness were not strong enough (unfulfilling life much?) to anchor them in against the lure of this program.

But more than that we have to see this program as an amplified aspect of mind control that is happening every day whether we like it or not. Some of it just leads to us buying a dish detergent. Some of it leads to us choosing a career. Some leads to us shooting up a pizza place.

What Q/MAGA is was a program on steroids, a cytokine storm of a program, like whatever happens when you wake up with a long white hair growing out of your face or body that wasn’t there the day before (this happens to other people, right? this is a clumsy metaphor but u feel me?)

Understanding the mechanics of our programming, where it comes from, how it roots in, and how we can become conscious of it and change it is the basis of The Re-Patterning Project (we start the Winter 2021 session Jan 24 if you’re interested): facebook.com/10000014231114…

Anyway. I’ll probably have more to keep saying about this but my main point is: this is where warfare is being waged.

You think the CIA went all MK-Ultra and then just decided “ok that was fun, let’s move on now”? Even if they did, you can’t put that tech back in Pandora’s box.

Being aware of our thoughts and programs is more critical now than ever. It’s not that extraordinary. It’s how our human system operates and like any system it is vulnerable to hacking. This is how things like the insurrection happen.

A bunch of glossy-eyed, blank-faced, delusional beings swept up purposefully into mob mentality and literally ruining their own lives for a manipulative grifter.

Of all the choices to make, they made these ones. That’s worth looking at.

And yes before you say it, they aren’t “victims,” exactly - there was hatred, entitlement, and racism there already.

But where did THOSE come from? It’s almost like white supremacy is a... giant program that we’re all born into in America and that we must dismantle consciously?

If you get that, then you understand what I mean when I say we must be ever more vigilant of our programming if we want to create change.

And, fwiw, without encouraging “love+light”ing a bunch of nazis, we are also invited to look at the ways we are unconsciously programming others, what behaviors we reinforce in those around us. We are all systems, and we are all programmers.

This is how we take our power back. All of us.

And they have not made it easy - late capitalism produces a reality almost anyone would want to escape from. And they do make escape and distraction super easy and available to us. Just... damn.

But if we want change, we have to learn and understand how we’re programmed and then set about reprogramming ourselves. It’s not going to happen without that.

Ok I’m done for now. Lots to think about.

PS one more thing: remember how yall loved romanticizing Secretary, me included? That’s a program. Nobody should be peeing in their fiancé’s mom’s wedding dress clawing at their boss’s desk not to move bc he said so. That’s a program & it was fucked up. That’s the slippery slope.

In case anyone was wondering how I made the leap from BDSM to mind control.

BDSM -> Secretary -> Jessica Jones -> Q.

That’s a progression of degrees of mind control. You can see varying degrees of it in almost every idea you encounter. Look for them.
