Wonderful and thank you.

Because I live in Australia, I had to pay $55.95 but so much cheaper than Amazon!

I'm really looking forward to reading this book.

Very informative video by Christoff and a great contribution to society as are your writings. I am presently halfway through a book that fits very well with this subject and I believe you and your followers would be interested in. The title is: The Indoctrinated Brain by Michael Nehls, MD,PhD. He is a molecular geneticist. Foreword by Dr. Naomi Wolf. The subtitle is: How to Successfully Fend Off the Global Attack on Your Mental Freedom.

The phrase "Evil spares no one and uses everyone" is a great one as is "Fear eats the soul" in reference to pre-traumatic stress disorder.

Thomas: TY for your support. That book sounds promising. When you're done, write up a review and I'll consider posting it here with you being a guest columnist.

Excellent piece. Since science abandoned its motto, "De Omnibus Dubitandum," (Everything is to be questioned) I've taken it as my own personal motto, and if everyone will just start there, the rest will follow. As long as they just keep questioning.

There's another aspect to this, and that's learning about logical fallacies, there are approximately 140 of them, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fallacies

However, you only need to focus on less than 20. Here are 15 worth viewing, https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/common-logical-fallacies

The most common are red herring fallacies which is a way to diverting attention from the subject at hand, i.e. subtly changing the subject. Invariably logical fallacies are more often than not the foundation for so many of these irrational paradigms they're pushing on humanity.

Good job, and this is a theme that needs to be played out over and over again.

I forwarded the article to my brother. He had this interesting reply:

Nightingale/Conant Publications was a great source of material on this and other similar subjects back in the Late 20th Century. I read-up on a lot of it while trying to understand marketing psychology.

Van: Does he have a specific book he is recommending?

He doesn't remember any specific titles. He said "Look at Nightingale/Conant's web page. They have thousands of titles on the topic of Market Psychology, recommending such things as "watch where their eyes look depending on what you say."

Van: That's my point. Who has the time to search through thousands of titles? And it's not a relaible way to find a good book based on the title, anyway...

Interesting talk about "mind control."

He has a point, but he's way over-doing it.

For example:

I'm calling b.s. on the Netflix influencer clip.

They supposedly had 5 minutes ("I'm gonna give you guys 5 minutes. Start--now! Have at it!") to visit all the rooms, choose from the box of products, and take selfies.

There appeared to be 4-5 different rooms, 4-5 different products.

How did the 3 influencers all choose the watermelon swing and take pictures there in 5 minutes without sitting in each other's lap?

In 5 minutes, they would have used 2 minutes just to look at the rooms and decide on the swing room, another 2 minutes to decide on the ice tray, then 1 minute to take a couple of selfies.

In other words, they would have all 3 been in that room, together, standing in line to take the same picture.

Human nature is such that such "influencers" would be loathe to do the same thing as another "influencer." If they saw one of the others on the swing with the ice tray, they'd have immediately gone to another room, and used another product.

So, that's b.s.

The guy has a point, but he's vastly over-doing it.

Reminds me of the 1950's guy who pushed "Subliminal Seduction." There was a point, but it was vastly over-done.

Kent: Good that you are asking questions. I don't know all the details but I believe that: 1) everything was set up for each one of the influencers in advance (so they could quickly get down to business), and 2) they worked independently in different rooms.

Thanks, John.

Bottom line is that Netflix segment, which supposedly illustrated manipulation/mindcontrol was an exercise in manipulation/editing/perception management, "mind control," if you will.

The guy has a point, but it is way over-blown.

Interesting, truthy, but flawed.

John, have you taken a look at the work of Karen Kingston and Ana Maria Mihalcea? They are dealing with the effects of the current Nanotechnology found in Covid-19 shots, but also now appearing in medicines and food. A recent conversation between these two contain a great deal of documentation - especially patents. Here's a link:

https://rumble.com/v4hv9oc-c19-bioweapons-brain-computer-conversation-with-karen-kingston-ana-maria-mi.html

Mihalcea has both an MD and PhD, so she is able to sometimes use clinical results from her patients in her research. Among other things,she makes use of Darkfield Microscopy on blood which provides additonal insight. And she has developed a detox protocol to deal with the rubbery blood clots that people sometimes develop from the mRNA shots. Some combination of EDTA and vitamin C. They both publish multiple Substacks in a week:

https://karenkingston.substack.com/

Kingston has the ability to read, understand and communicate the intentions of Nanotechology patents, including those that deal with Transhumanism and interactions with the human brain.

And Kingston has been a vital participant in trhe current legal action in Florida to ban the Covid shots. Here's a report of the status in early march 2024:

Mind Control via Confusion is a critcal concept to understand. Excellent that you are spreading the word,

Lately the critique of deToqueville in Philosophy of Politics keeps coming to mind vis a vis climate propaganda. The cabal of the Mensae or Mensa so to speak whereby ceding government to “eggheads” emerges in proportion to “herd” disinterestedness increase, either by maleducation or inertia. Conclusion equality of opportunity must prevail.
