Matrixology: The true and final goal of the Surveillance State
By Jon Rappoport
May 12, 2015
"If you or I had a pot full of money and set out to
help a community become more prosperous and self-sufficient, we could
find a way. When big government steps in with its money, the objective
is different-it's to appear to help, while actually demeaning and
reducing everything in sight...
"Ever wonder why so many law-enforcement types,
government bureaucrats, and corporate worker bees are control freaks? Do
you think it's just the result of their job training? Think again.
There is a selection process. The plan is for the new society to be run
by massive numbers of little control freaks.
"...Predicting the future, based on current trends,
leads us to some horrendous conclusions about the dystopia toward which
we're heading. But there is an upside. We can view the conflicts and the
polarities with greater clarity. We can see, for example, what freedom
means in a much deeper way. We can become more fierce defenders of that
freedom. We can see what the stakes are. This view gives us power, if we
want to take it.
...Mind control is ultimately about inducing the
sacrifice of freedom and power. And thus manufacturing a prison planet.
People who register a blank look when the subject is their own freedom
and power should understand that they are already operating under some
form of conditioning. There is a paved-over spot in their consciousness,
in their energy, in their desire, in their ambition
"That's right, ambition. In this case, the desire and
motivation to do something big and important with their freedom, instead
of just lying down and surrendering." (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)
The Surveillance State aims to profile every human in the United States. This profile will include a psych eval.
The eval, plus psychological tests will be mandatory
for all government employees, including public school and college
teachers, counselors, and wall-to-wall bureaucrats.
The objective? To qualify those people to judge the rest of us.
In other words, they will be the Normals, and we will be viewed as the Freaks.
These new government arbiters will also be selected on the basis of their feeling like put-upon victims.
Given new powers, they will have a field day.
I'm talking about a cultural revolution that turns things inside out and reverses vectors.
It's already happening, of course, but the intensity is expanding.
Here is the view from the top: install "the underclass" as the officials who will run and police day-to-day society.
Make a list of every real or imagined victim group you
can think of. From these groups, the millions of clerks and bureaucrats
who operate the levers of intrusive public life will be chosen.
They are the natural allies of big government.
"Never had a chance to wreak revenge on the people who
are holding you down? Come see us for an interview. We may have a
position for you. We'll give you a test, put that together with a
profile we've already assembled on you, and voila...you could be working
in an office tomorrow, collecting a paycheck, receiving benefits, and
dropping the hammer on anyone who has an independent or errant thought
in his head..."
Big government wants to make more people poor and
dependent, yes. But beyond that, the plan is to "rescue" them and give
them power in government jobs.
"Look, we've assembled psych evals on 300 million
Americans. Here are the ones we've identified as troublesome. Guess
what? They're the folks who don't like you. But now you're working for
us, the government. So we're setting you loose. Go after them, find a
reason to harass them, block them from getting ahead..."
Make no mistake about it, there are ways to make poor
nations, from which immigrants are flooding into the US, far more
prosperous-just as there are ways to make poor communities inside the US
prosper. But those ways are verboten. Instead, big government, despite
its pronouncements, is intent on exacerbating poverty and dependence.
Gradually, the difference between receiving government benefits and having a government job will be completely erased.
Freedom of the individual? Never heard of freedom or the individual.
The Bureaucratic Society is shaping up before our eyes.
The Surveillance State is the framework within which
this goal can be accomplished, by the use of psych profiles and evals,
which are filters deployed to separate the "put-upon people who thirst
for power" from everyone else.
If you think all this is too crazy to be true, go to
publicintelligence.net and read the report, Identity Dominance: The US
Military's Biometric War in Afghanistan. The program involves securing
extensive background information, including "threat potential," on every
single human in the country. Every single human.
With a shift of target, such a program could be
transferred back home to the US, where it would mesh with NSA operations
to achieve the same goal.
Have another look at the 1974 film, The Parallax View.
Reporter Joe Frady infiltrates The Parallax Corporation, which carries
out assassinations on contract. Frady has to pass a series of
psychological tests to win a job as a killer for hire. He has to present
himself as a violent man with an axe to grind.
His recruiter, Jack Younger, spins Frady the following
sales pitch: "Your tests suggest that you have remarkable talents...has
it ever crossed your mind that it's everybody else's problem that they
don't get along with you?...the very quality that gets you into trouble
makes you potentially invaluable...your aggressiveness."
Imagine the same kind of build-up used on 30 million prospective petty bureaucrats:
"We want you to be a little angry. You deserve to be
resentful. We consider that a plus. It makes you better at your job.
You'll have an edge. All the people who see you as a loser? They're the
freaks. This is your chance to work for the government and put them in
their place. This isn't the old government. This is new. This is a
revolution. The people who were on the outside are now inside. You're
one of ours. We know how valuable you are..."
Translation: "We engineered society to create millions
of people stuck in material and psychological poverty. Dependent.
You're one of those. Now we need employees to run this wall-to-wall
welfare state and corral the 'independent ones.' We've let you soak in
misery and suffering for a while, and now we think you're ready to make
other people follow the hundred thousand rules and regs we've set up..."
Surveillance is coming at us from all angles. Chips,
drones, TSA checkpoints, smart meters, back-doored electronic products,
video cameras, spying home appliances; our phone calls and emails and
keystrokes and product purchases are recorded.
The government and its allied corporations will know whatever they want to know about us.
What then?
What happens when all nations are blanketed from stem to stern with surveillance?
Smart meters give us one clue. Public utilities,
acting on government orders, will be able to allot electricity in
amounts and at times it wishes to. This is leading to an overarching
plan for energy distribution to the entire population.
Claiming shortages and limited options, governments
will essentially be redistributing wealth, in the form of energy, under a
collectivist model.
National health insurance plans (such as Obamacare)
offer another clue. Such plans have no logistical chance of operating
unless every citizen is assigned a medical ID package, which is a de
facto identity card. In the medical arena, this means cradle-to-grave
tracking.
Surveillance inevitably leads to: placing every
individual under systems of control. It isn't just "we're watching you"
or "we're stamping out dissent." It's "we're directing your
participation in life."
As a security analyst in the private sector once told
me, "When you can see what every employee is doing, when you have it all
at your fingertips, you naturally move on to thinking about how you can
control those patterns and flows of movement and activity. It's
irresistible. You look at your employees as pieces on a board. The only
question is, what game do you want to play with them?"
Every such apparatus is ruled, from the top, by
Central Planners. When it's an entire nation, upper-echelon technocrats
revel in the idea of blueprinting, mapping, charting, and regulating the
flows of all goods and services and people, "for the common good."
Water, food, medicine, land use, transportation-they
all become items of a networked system that chooses who gets what and
when, and who can travel where, and under what conditions.
This is the wet dream of technocrats. They believe
they are saving the world, while playing a fascinating game of
multidimensional chess.
As new technologies are discovered and come on line, the planners decide how they will be utilized and for whose benefit.
In order to implement such a far-reaching objective,
with minimal resistance from the global population, manufactured crises
are unleashed which persuade the masses that the planet is under threat
and needs "the wise ones" to rescue it and us.
We watch (and fight in) wars and more wars, each one
exacerbated and even invented. We see (planned) drought and famine. We
are told about desperate shortages and a frying Earth. We are presented
with phony epidemics that are falsely promoted as scourges.
The only response, we are led to believe, is more humane control over the population.
On top of that, we are fed an unending stream of
propaganda aimed at convincing us that "the great good for the greatest
number" is the only acceptable principle of existence. All prior systems
of belief are outmoded. We know better now. We must be good and kind
and generous to everyone at all times.
Under this quasi-religious banner, which has great
emotional appeal, appears The Plan. Our leaders allocate and withhold on
the basis of their greater knowledge. We comply. We willingly comply,
because we are enlisted in a universal army of altruistic concern.
This is a classic bait and switch. We are taught to
believe that service for the greater good is an unchallengeable goal and
credo. And then, later, we find out it has been hijacked to institute
more power over us, in every way.
The coordinated and networked surveillance of Earth
and its people is fed into algorithms that spit out solutions. This much
food will go here; that much water will go there; here there will be
medical care; there medical care will be severely rationed. These people
will be permitted to travel. Those people will be confined to their
cities and towns.
Every essential of life-managed with on-off switches, and the consequences will play out.
An incredibly complex system of interlocking decisions will be hailed as messianic.
Surveillance; planning; control.
The surveillance is expanded, not because we are
constantly under threat and must be protected from terrorists, but
because we can then be labeled and entered onto 10 billion squares of
the game board, to be moved around or held in place.
This is the vision.
It isn't ours. It never was. But we are not consulted.
Instead we are made witness to watershed events: the
1995 Oklahoma City bombing; the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center;
the 2001 assault on the Trade Center and the Pentagon. These ops
paralleled the unleashing of better and more far-ranging methods of
surveillance.
We are profiled down to the threads on our clothing
and DNA in our cells. But what is our profile of the technocrats and
their bosses?
They are divorced from human life. They live in a vacuum. They take pleasure from that vacuum.
In 1982, I interviewed Bill Perry, who had just left
his job as PR chief at Lawrence Livermore Labs, where scientists design
nuclear weapons. Perry had been given the kind of job PR people long
for. But one day, when he passed the desk of a researcher and listened
to his complaints about budget limitations, Perry said, "Listen, America
already has the means to blow up the whole planet eight times. What
more do you need?"
The researcher looked up at him with a genuinely
puzzled expression. He said, "You don't understand, Bill. This is a
problem in physics."
In the same detached sense, the technocrats who want
to calculate and direct our future, move by move, minute by minute, see
us as components of a complex and very interesting problem.
Yes, they indeed expect to exercise power and control.
But they also live in an abstraction. They deal their answers from that
realm. They exercise cool passion. They see, for example, that not
every single twitch of thought of every person on earth is yet mapped,
so they want to finish constructing the means by which they can chart
those "missing elements." They want to complete the formula.
They view their research as a wholly natural
implication of the mathematics they can manipulate. They swim in
technology and they want to extend its architecture. To abandon the
program would be tantamount to denying their own intelligence. They
climb the mountain because it is there.
They do perceive that one factor does not fit their
algorithms: the free individual. It's the wild card. Therefore, they are
compelled to analyze freedom and break it down into DNA functions and
brain processes. They assume, because they must, that the free
individual is an illusory idea that flows from some older configuration
of synaptic transmission, at a time in our evolution when we needed it.
But now, they suppose, the engineering of human activity and thought has
superseded such quaint notions. Now we all can be tracked, traced, and
studied on a different and wider scale. Now we can be seen for what we
really are: a hive.
Therefore, we must be instructed, within tight limits, about our various functions.
I'm reminded of a statement attributed to Nobel
Laureate, Albert Szent-Gyorgyi: "In my search for the secret of life, I
have ended up with atoms and electrons, which have no life at all.
Somewhere along the line, life has run through my fingers. So, in my old
age, I am retracing my steps..."
Today's technocrats will admit no such disappointment
or existential crisis. They flourish with great optimism as they design
the future world and its single society. If they run out of pieces of
their puzzle to study, they'll try to track the motion of every atom and
electron and quark in the universe. They'll delight in it.
Knowing all this, we know the terms of the war we are in.
The Central Planners have an equation: "free=uncontrolled=dangerous."
By the gross terms of that equation, they lump us in
with thugs and murderers and terrorists. They even see the normal
functioning of the brain as a threat, as an intrinsically defective
process, and they have long since decided that organ must be corrected
with drugs and other remedies.
We, on the other hand, must assert, in every way
possible, that freedom is real and inviolable, and we must back that up
with our actions.
When individual freedom is no longer discussed in
great depth by people who should know better, when it is left to wither
on the vine, many programs and structures are built to take its place.
When freedom is not understood beyond a superficial level, the question,
WHAT IS FREEDOM FOR, goes begging. Of all the criticisms of our
education system, this one should be primary. Thomas Jefferson
envisioned public education purely as a way to teach children what being
a citizen in a Republic meant-because, until the Constitution was
enacted, there had never been an experiment in freedom on such a scale.
It was a new premise.
Several years ago, in one of our greatest cities,
Chicago, people were scrambling to ensure that, during a teacher's
strike, schools could remain open as baby-sitting warehouses for
half-days. That is how far the system has sunk.
Technocrats contemplate changing the game of life so
that it essentially becomes synthetic. Natural was just a way-station.
To really exercise control, it's necessary to remake humans from top to
bottom. Then you know exactly what you are dealing with, because you
made it, you invented it.
As Aldous Huxley wrote, "'Ninety-six identical twins
working ninety-six identical machines!' The voice was almost tremulous
with enthusiasm. 'You really know where you are. For the first time in
history'."
Yes, because you made the twins in hatcheries and the machines in factories.
Technocrats are their own brand of problem solvers.
Solving the problem of Planet Earth, as they see it, requires human
constants, as many as possible, and the fewest possible human variables.
Therefore, re-engineer the brain. Reconfigure the nervous system. Insert preferred images directly into the brain.
That's what these useful (high-IQ) idiots are working on these days. That's where they're going.
That gives us a wider picture of what freedom really means and will mean in the coming years. It's to our benefit to know that.
When I write about individual power, as I frequently
do, this is part of what I'm referring to. The coming years. The coming
struggle.
When I write about imagination, despite the fact that
most people don't have a clue about their own imagination, this is what
I'm talking about, in part: the individual inventing new strategies to
protect and expand freedom.
The wild card is: us.
Free.
