Glitches in the Matrix

Glitches in the Matrix

No mask, one mask, two masks, no mask. Safe and effective, safe and effective. Ok, the vaccine is not that effective, but it prevents transmission. Well, it actually doesn’t do that either. And maybe…there’s a problem with safety. To be sure though, the forced lockdowns greatly helped; yet they did do serious and long-lasting harm to society—and didn’t really help after all. Coercion used to be categorically bad, but now it’s good—when used to get people to do the right thing. Free speech used to be indispensable, but now it’s been identified as dangerous…

Glitches in the matrix, have you noticed them? The more that you haven’t, or that you think they’re not a big deal, or that they seem to you to have reasonable justifications, the more that you need to hear this message, not only for your own sake—but for all our sakes.

In order to commandeer society for dark and authoritarian purposes, key deceptions in the form of propaganda must be obsessively and increasingly sold to the masses. And the people who threaten to dispel these deceptions with truth and reason must likewise be demonized, censored, and repressed.

“The art of propaganda consists of putting a matter so clearly and forcibly that it creates a general conviction regarding the reality, necessity, and justice of a certain essential thing. … The art of propaganda consists precisely in being able to awaken the imagination of the public through an appeal to their feelings—that is, in finding the appropriate psychological form that will appeal to the hearts of the masses. …

“In journalistic circles, they like to speak of the press as a ‘great power’ within the state. As a matter of fact, its importance is immense. One cannot easily overestimate it, for the press continues the work of adult education.

“Generally, readers can be divided into three groups: First, those who believe everything they read; Second, those who no longer believe anything; Third, those who critically examine what they read and form their judgments accordingly.

“Numerically, the first group is by far the largest. It consists of the broad masses of the people, and therefore, intellectually, it forms the simplest part of the nation. … Under this category fall all those who haven’t been born to think for themselves or who haven’t learned to do so, and who—partly through incompetence and partly through ignorance—believe everything they read. This group includes that type of lazy individual who, although capable of thinking for himself, absorbs what others have thought, assuming that they must have put some effort into it.

“The influence of the press on all these people is therefore enormous; they are, after all, the broad masses of a nation. They aren’t willing or able to personally sift through what is being served up to them, and so their whole attitude towards daily problems is almost solely the result of outside influence. All this can be advantageous where public enlightenment is provided by serious lovers of the truth, but is catastrophic when done at the hand of scoundrels and liars. …

“The third group is easily the smallest. It’s composed of real intellectuals, who have the natural aptitude and education to think for themselves. In all things, they try to form their own judgments, while at the same time carefully sifting through what they read. …[T]hese readers have learned to regard every journalist as fundamentally a rogue who only rarely speaks the truth. Unfortunately, the value of these readers lies in their intelligence and not in their numbers—a misfortune, in a period where wisdom counts for nothing and majorities for everything! Nowadays, when the ballots of the masses are the deciding factor, the decision lies in the hands of the numerically strongest group—which is to say, the first group: the crowd of simpletons and the credulous.” —Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, Volume One (1925)

“Naturally, the common people don’t want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship. ...[T]he people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.” —Hermann Göring, Nuremberg Diary (1947)

“It happened, therefore it can happen again: this is the core of what we have to say. It can happen, and it can happen everywhere.” —Primo Levi, a survivor of the Holocaust, The Drowned and the Saved (1986)

This is why free speech and the platforms for it are so crucial to a free and democratic society. On an open and level playing field, good ideas and information predominantly win out over bad ideas and information.

“There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance.” —Socrates, quoted in Lives of Eminent Philosophers by Diogenes Laërtius

“[C]onfidence is every where the parent of despotism; free government is founded in jealousy, and not in confidence…” —Thomas Jefferson’s original draft of the Kentucky Resolutions of 1798 and 1799

“[I]f Men are to be precluded from offering their sentiments on a matter, which may involve the most serious and alarming consequences, that can invite the consideration of Mankind; reason is of no use to us—the freedom of Speech may be taken away—and, dumb & silent we may be led, like sheep, to the Slaughter.” —George Washington, The Newburgh Address (1783)

Anyone trying to tilt the playing field against free speech—through censorship, deplatforming, or other forms of repression—makes society more susceptible to authoritarianism and evil. Today, such dark manipulation of society’s information exists to such a degree and power that free society is itself in grave danger. And the less that you currently see this fact, the more that you need to hear this message.

We individually must be exposed to both good and bad ideas and information in order to collectively discern the truth of what is good and bad for society. Individuals compose and largely create society through democratic processes; the masses currently have the power to steer society towards good or evil. But this power can be, and is being, eclipsed.

“[I]f a nation expects to be ignorant & free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was & never will be.” —Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Charles Yancey (January 6, 1816)

“I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society, but the people themselves: and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is, not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education.” —Thomas Jefferson, Letter to William Charles Jarvis (September 28, 1820)

“In their propaganda today’s dictators rely for the most part on repetition, suppression and rationalization—the repetition of catchwords which they wish to be accepted as true, the suppression of facts which they wish to be ignored, the arousal and rationalization of passions which may be used in the interests of the Party or the State. As the art and science of manipulation come to be better understood, the dictators of the future will doubtless learn to combine these techniques with the non-stop distractions which, in the West, are now threatening to drown in a sea of irrelevance the rational propaganda essential to the maintenance of individual liberty and the survival of democratic institutions.” —Aldous Huxley, Brave New World Revisited (1958)

Since we all have been overly exposed to the dominant views that espouse censorship and deplatforming, we each must objectively and directly, without preconceptions or filters, make dedicated efforts to hear the best views, evidence, and reasoning of exactly those people who are the targets of such censorship and deplatforming.

“How easy it is to make people believe a lie, and how hard it is to undo that work again!” —Mark Twain, The Autobiography of Mark Twain, Edited by Charles Neider (2013)

“…Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it politic?’ Vanity asks the question, ‘Is it popular?’ But Conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must do it because Conscience tells him it is right. And that is where I stand today. And that is where I hope you will continue to stand, so that we can speed up the day when justice will roll down like waters all over the world, and righteousness like a mighty stream…” —Martin Luther King, Jr., speech at Santa Rita (January 15, 1968)

“Thousands of unknown men and women in Europe resisted the occupation of the Nazis, and many died, but all added to the ultimate strength and freedom of their countries. It is from numberless diverse acts of courage such as these that the belief that human history is thus shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope—and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring—those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. ‘If Athens shall appear great to you,’ said Pericles, ‘consider then that her glories were purchased by valiant men, and by men who learned their duty.’ That is the source of all greatness in all societies, and it is the key to progress in our own time.” —Robert F. Kennedy, Day of Affirmation Address (June 6, 1966)

We each have a moral duty to hear these people. This is an immensely important and urgent duty to the present and future masses of the world—and indeed, to us all. This is no small, meaningless, or inconsequential task, and we each must not delay in this sacred duty to each other, no matter what the personal cost. We must each hear the following people—and make this a top priority, now.

“…I cannot accept your canon that we are to judge Pope and King unlike other men, with a favorable presumption that they did not wrong. If there is any presumption it is the other way, against the holders of power, increasing as the power increases. Historic responsibility has to make up for the want of legal responsibility. Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority, still more when you superadd the tendency or the certainty of corruption by authority.” —Lord Acton, Letter to Mandell Creighton (5 April 1887), published in Historical Essays and Studies (1907)

“Some even believe we are a part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ‘internationalists’ and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure—one world, if you will. If that’s the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it.” —David Rockefeller, Memoirs (2003)
