Which future triumphes in the unfolding battle over humanity will be formed by the choices and discoveries we make (or stop working to make) in the days ahead, Matthew Ehret writes.
In my last post “Guterres and the Great Reset: How Commercialism Ended Up Being a Time Bomb“, I made the case that the time bomb justifying a Great Reset of civilization was set into motion over 50 years ago. Because location, we were presented to a cast of characters surrounding the World Economic Forum and Trilateral Commission who played instrumental roles in bringing about a regulated disintegration of western civilization.
In spite of the truth that this un-natural improvement took place over the dead bodies of terrific statesmen of the 1960s, a concern still sticks around: HOW did the western countries … especially the United States, so deeply formed by a love of flexibility, wilfully relinquish its democratic organizations in favor of a brand-new system of supranational governance and de-growth? How did the very individuals who were targeted for damage not just let this occur however in many cases even assistant and abet the perpetrators?
Epistemological Warfare in America
Here it helps to seek to the works of a royal grand strategist who is too often championed as a defender of freedom: Aldous Huxley.
While Aldous’ brother Julian was improving the worldwide paradigm by re-packaging eugenics under a number of brand-new outfits post-1945, Aldous’ imaginative juices were driven entirely by his role as a cultural warrior.
Grand children of Thomas Huxley who was commissioned to re-organize the British Empire in the late 1850s, both grandchildren strongly welcomed the household service working carefully with the elite Bloomsbury Group of Bertrand Russell, and John Maynard Keynes between 1914-1937.
Among these innovative misanthropes, Lord Bertrand Russell (another renowned pacifist) had gone far in outlining the sort of bone chilling suitable that Darwinian laws of evolution required be mankind’s destiny under a scientifically managed priesthood. In his 1930 Scientific Outlook, Russell stated:
“The scientific rulers will offer one kind of education for ordinary males and females, and another for those who are to end up being holders of scientific power. Regular men and women will be expected to be docile, industrious, prompt, thoughtless, and pleased. Of these qualities probably satisfaction will be considered the most important. In order to produce it, all the scientists of psycho-analysis, behaviourism, and biochemistry will be called into play … All the kids and ladies will learn from an early age to be what is called’ co-operative, ‘i.e., to do precisely what everyone is doing. Initiative will be prevented in these children, and insubordination, without being punished, will be scientifically trained out of them.”
“Except for the one matter of loyalty to the world state and to their own order, members of the governing class will be motivated to be adventurous, and full of initiative. It will be acknowledged that it is their service to improve scientific methods and to keep the manual workers pleased by means of continuous new amusements”.
Huxley would have Russell’s thesis securely in mind when he started writing his Brave New World in 1931.
Aldous Goes to Work
Having established his main office in Hollywood in 1937, Aldous lived out his days in the U.S.A. composing scripts for Hollywood, exploring psychotropic drugs and collaborating a new cultural movement that would quickly surpass the youth growing up in the middle of the madness of the Cold War.
In an infamous 1962 speech entitled “The Ultimate Transformation”, Aldous Huxley detailed the principles of this new science of governance telling adoring fans amidst the wannabe alphas in the Berkeley auditorium:
“If you are going to control any population for any length of time, you need to have some step of authorization. It’s exceedingly tough to see how pure terrorism can operate indefinitely. It can function for a fairly long time, however I think eventually you have to generate an aspect of persuasion, a component of getting individuals to consent to what is happening to them. Well, it appears to me that the nature of The Ultimate Transformation with which we are now faced is precisely this: That we are in procedure of developing an entire series of methods, which will enable the controlling oligarchy who have constantly existed and presumably always will exist, to get people, really, to enjoy their servitude.”
Getting individuals to love their yoke would be made possible by an array of new strategies outlined in both Huxley’s fiction and non-fiction works and take into motion by the effort of CIA-funded laboratories working under secretive umbrella of Allan Dulles’ MK Ultra. Making use of lots of techniques originated by Nazi psychiatrists in WWII, one of the primary goals of MK Ultra was to deconstruct the human psyche using a mix of electroshock treatment, psychotropic drugs and other conditioning in order to reconstruct characters from scratch by professional psychiatrists. As Naomi Klein showed in her popular book The Shock Teaching, the concept behind MK Ultra was constantly to extend these behavioral methods to reprogramming entire groups, societies and countries.
Within Huxley’s Brave New World, psychotropic drugs (soma), cultural standards driven by pre-adolescent sensualism, consistent Tinder-esque sexual adventures, the disintegration of family and hyper-sensualized home entertainment (called “feelies”) got the job done perfectly. Huxley’s dystopia featured a society which had effectively developed to become an overall oligarchy with a scientific priesthood handling the test tube children bio engineered to become alphas, betas, gammas or the lowly toilet cleaning epsilons similar to the sub-human Morlocks explained in H.G. Wells’ earlier Time Maker. In Huxley’s world, family units have actually long given that disintegrated with the country state and any belief in God.
In his 1958 Brave New World Revisited, Aldous decries the ultimate evil caused by faith in scientific and technological development as an impression which can not provide an escape from the ultimate figuring out law of humankind: overpopulation. Citing creative developments in atomic power, space exploration and medication, Huxley complains how each time humanity resolves a problem that enables us to conserve more lives, the types duplicates at faster rates bringing about the unavoidable Malthusian problems of future wars for resources, illness and the breeding of the inferior races.
Huxley composes:
“In this 2nd half of the twentieth century we not do anything methodical about our breeding; but in our random and unregulated method we are not only over-populating our planet, we are likewise, it would seem, ensuring that these higher numbers shall be of biologically poorer quality. In the bad old days kids with significant, or even with slight, genetic problems hardly ever survived. Today, thanks to sanitation, contemporary pharmacology and the social conscience, the majority of the children born with genetic flaws reach maturity and increase their kind.”
“There will remain in the next generation or two a medicinal approach of making people like their bondage and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak. Producing a kind of painless prisoner-of-war camp for whole societies, so that individuals will in reality have their liberties removed from them but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel– by propaganda, or brainwashing, or brainwashing improved by medicinal techniques. And this appears to be the last revolution.”
Huxley knew that if this sort of brainwashing were effectively induced, the ruling oligarchy might make sure that the hedonistic identities of those maturing within this controlled environment would separate themselves from out-of-date ideas like nationalism, love of family, or religion, in order to produce LSD-driven personal “micro-realities”. Honoring the past and sacrificing for the future ended up being replaced with a new wisdom of “residing in the now”.
Huxley mored than happy to find that LSD-25 blended with cannabis, hashish and mescaline was a best supplement for soma writing in his 1958 Revisited:
“In LSD-25 (lysergic acid diethylamide) the pharmacologists have actually just recently developed another element of soma– a perception-improver and vision-producer that is, physiologically speaking, nearly costless. This extraordinary drug, which works in dosages as little as fifty or even twenty-five millionths of a gram, has power(like peyote )to carry people into the other world. In the bulk of cases, the other world to which LSD-25 gives access is incredible; additionally it might be purgatorial or even infernal. But, positive, or unfavorable, the lysergic acid experience is felt by practically everyone who undergoes it to be profoundly significant and informing. In any event, the reality that minds can be changed so radically at so little expense to the body is completely astonishing.” Throughout his time in the United States coordinating this brand-new countercultural revolt, Aldous hired
a young teacher of psychiatry named Timothy Leary to his cause. Explaining his interaction with Huxley as the two planned this last transformation, Leary wrote in 1983:”We had actually run up versus the Judeo-Christian dedication to one God, one religion, one reality, that has cursed Europe for centuries and America considering that our founding days. Drugs that open the mind to several realities inevitably causea
polytheistic view of the universe. We picked up that the time for a brand-new humanist faith based on intelligence, excellent natured pluralism and scientific paganism had actually shown up. “The Production of Organized Schizophrenia How the counter-culture was formed in the bowels of such oligarchical psychiatric psychological meatgrinders like London’s Tavistock Institute and was used by psychiatric crack troops tactically positioned across all schools, military, unions, business boards and government administrations throughout the years is beyond the scope of this present article, although it was checked out in a recent video by this author. What need to be kept in mind for our present purposes is that cultural warfare during this intense post WW2 period was full spectrum in nature-taking every major branch of human life into account and drawing out all traces of imaginative reason, universality, Freedom, and Truth anywhere it might be found. Whether it remained in the fine arts and music or
whether it remained in clinical practice, new dualisms were imposed severing logical thinking from the”pollution”of subjective feelings. Where the arts ended up being shaped increasingly by hedonism freed from factor( with a”high “post-modern art for the elites and a”low” populist art for the dumb masses), the sciences became governed by the dogmatic faith in cold mathematical sterility governed by “statistics”, entropy, and blind fatalism. Random paint splashes of CIA-funded artists like Jackson Pollock or the fuzzy squares of Mark Rothko ended up being the new creative ideal while researchers discovered themselves trained to think like computer systems modelling their minds of the techniques of Bertrand Russell’s Principia, Norbert Weiner’s Cybernetics and John von Neumann’s Information Theory. Bertrand Russell’s role collaborating the CIA’s Congress for
wars, assassinations, coups, and the looming danger of nuclear annihilation, the parents of the baby boomers had no clue what evil they were handling as their children were soaked up into a brand-new drug/sex-ridden cultural field that nobody had actually ever experienced before. Schizophrenic chaos on the planet reproduced schizophrenic turmoil in the culture as progressively big ranges of youth quit on truth in order to”tune in, switch on and leave “. Throughout
the 1960s, patriotic forces around the world rallied to revive the
spirit of scientific and technological progress which these neo-Malthusians abhored so much. President John F Kennedy tried to magnify Eisenhower’s Atoms for Peace in addition to large scale investments into Africa, Asia and Ibero America along with leaders of the Pan African and Pan Arab world who were committed to ending colonialism and bringing their individuals into the 21st century. After Kennedy’s murder, Charles de Gaulle worked with worldwide co-thinkers like Quebec Premier Daniel Johnson, Canadian Prime Minister John Diefenbaker and German Chancellor Adenauer to bring about a union of progress which peaked in 1968 with Bobby Kennedy’s unavoidable management of the United States. Just as in the period of the late 19th century when a win-win system of global cooperation was threatening to replace the dying Hobbesian system of the British Empire, a thick string of coups, color transformations and assassinations made sure the crushing of this dynamic as a new age of post-industrialism, Anglo-American imperialism
and monetarism was released onto an unwary society. The Club of Rome Takes the Stage In this new post-1968 political environment, brand-new scientific conferences were organized in an attempt to impose statistic modelling postulated on systems analysis onto biological, economic and specifically ecological systems. Extrapolating present patterns into the future and neglecting the sorts of non-linear qualitative leaps triggered by creative thought allowed this new breed of researcher to” forecast”the inescapable crises caused by population growth and the decreasing returns on limited resources. The renowned study for this new clinical movement was the Club of Rome-commission MIT report Limits to Growth that” anticipated”, as Malthus had actually done two centuries previously , the point of crisis when population pressures would outstrip nature’s bounty
-giving technocrats managing mankind the tools needed to make the correct sacrifices in today. When figures like Mark Carney go over the”greening of global finance “and placing financial worths upon the decrease of carbon footprints, this is the ill and unscientific structure of their thinking. Where previously, humankind valued financial development through scientific and technological development(and implicitly the assistance of increased varieties of people at higher standards
of life ), the brand-new system of”worths “promoted by these misanthropes required that profit be tied to the decrease of human activity on the earth. Club of Rome co-founder Aurelio Peccei, who presented at the inaugural World Economic Online forum conferences in Davos, mentioned:”The economy and the ecology are inextricably unified … A method of generating wealth and one of safeguarding this patrimony are opposed. Activities that generate wealth but damage the natural patrimony even more, develop unfavorable worth “. Former President of the
World Federation of Mental Health during the high point of MK Ultra, Margaret Mead (other half of MK Ultra controller Gregory Bateson)presided over one such 1975 conference on the environment and environment sponsored by the Club of Rome (this club likewise being an early sponsor of the World Economic Online Forum in 1971 ). Echoing the spirit of Russell and Huxley previously,
Mead required the creation of a brand-new science of statistics premised on relating pollution to environment modification that would end up being internally consistent and shape the habits of mankind going into the 21st century. The focus was always population control. In her speech Mead stated: “The unequaled boost in the human population and its demands for food, energy, and resources is clearly the most important destabilizing impacts in the biosphere. We are facing a duration when society need to make choices on a planetary scale.”” What we require from scientists are estimates, presented with adequate conservatism and plausibility however at the exact same time as free as possible from internal disagreements that can be exploited by political interests, that will permit us to begin developing a system of synthetic but reliable warnings, warnings which will parallel the instincts of animals who get away before the cyclone. [We need to] draw from the required capability for sacrifice. It is for that reason a statement of significant possibilities of risk, which may overtake mankind, on which it is important to concentrate attention”. Instead of seeing science as a field for optimistic problem solving, this misanthropic cult of elitists required that science be redefined around a”brand-new wisdom”of adapting to issues genuine or imagined. This cynical science of”problematique”( the science of issues )presumed that considering that all imaginative discovery caused population development, the real opponent was found in the naïve optimists who think it great to promote discoveries. Mead ridiculed those cultural optimists who declined this cynical view of science stating:”Those who respond versus prophets of doom, thinking that there is not sufficient scientific basis for their melancholy predictions, [https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.132143″ target=”_blank”>for they] tendto become in turn prophets of paradisiacal impossibilities, guaranteed utopias of technological happiness, or benign interventions on behalf of humanity that are none the less irrational just because they are couched as ‘rational.’ They express a type of faith in the built-in human impulse for
survival, or a faith in some magical technological remedy.” Using more truthful language, Club of Rome co-founder Sir Alexander King mentioned in the beginning of The Very first International Revolution(1991):”In looking for a common enemy against whom we can unify, we developed the concept that pollution, the hazard of global warming, water scarcities, scarcity and so on, would fit the bill. In their totality and their interactions these phenomena do constitute a common danger which must be faced by everybody together. But in designating these risks as the opponent, we fall under the trap, which we have currently alerted readers about, namely mistaking symptoms for causes. All these dangers are triggered by human intervention in natural processes, and it is only through altered mindsets and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy then is mankind itself. “Today’s world is being pulled by two opposing dynamics. The prophets of doom who set the time bomb in place half a century ago giddily prepare their utopian Fantastic Reset which demands vast bloodletting as an overpopulated humanity be compromised by a modern pagan clinical priesthood committed to Gaia and computer designs. On the other hand, the spirit of progress and open system thinking has actually come alive in the form of the multipolar alliance which property its preparation on an opposing set of assumptions about the nature of mankind, imagination, worth, economics, development and natural law. Which future triumph in this battle over mankind will be formed by the decisions and discoveries we make (or stop working to make)in the days ahead.
