In order to best understand the world we live in it is crucial to think in terms of fundamentals and to be philosophically aware. One must have a basic knowledge of philosophy and preferably of Ayn Rand’s philosophy Objectivism. When the full context is held in mind its clear that there is no great awakening happening, and the claim that such is the case is a counter-productive call to inaction.

As little as a century ago the average person had far more common sense than people today and they were less gullible because they were more anchored in the real world than we are today. Of course, the context was different and they did not have the technological ability to access information and therefore uncover the truth had they been inclined to investigate. And unlike us they had no track record of broken promises and obvious false claims to stimulate suspicion.

3 contextual points:

The first contextual idea to bear in mind is that men have been controlling other men since the very beginning of human interactions. Let’s remind ourselves of the concept of slavery and that until the mid 1800s it was a ubiquitous fact of human life across the globe.

It is also no secret that there are many voices calling for a New World Order that is essentially one world government as a means of political control. This idea is not championed by ordinary people on the street, it is championed by the super wealthy and their “think tanks” and those calling the shots – the parasite class.

The second point is that central banking – the key means of controlling nations by controlling the money supply – has been around a long time. It was established in England with the charter of the Bank of England in 1694. The model spread across Europe, and has become the means by which wealthy private shareholders of these central banks control the money supply and thereby the economy of their respective countries.

The third point I want to make is philosophical.

The renaissance of the 15^th and 16^th centuries was the rebirth of REASON as man’s guiding principle since the ancient Greece. It was a period when mysticism gave way to a rational approach to human life. The key features of the thinking of this period were that reality was held to be an objective absolute and that it was considered knowable to the human mind. Not everyone held these ideas, but they came to dominate European culture for a brief period. The result was the scientific and industrial revolutions, and massive progress of humanity out of poverty and into an age of technological growth and development.

The two ideas of an objective reality and therefore a knowable reality gave birth to scientific method and a string of key discoveries such as electricity and electric lighting, the internal combustion engine, and many more. But also, these ideas gave birth to the USA, the first free nation on earth. You see, when reason is mans dominant guiding principle, mankind recognises the objective nature of reality and grasps that knowledge is possible to the human mind – that the mind is competent to know reality. These ideas always go together, and they lead to individualism and political freedom.

But in 1781 the publication of a book called “A critique of Pure Reason” by a German Philosopher called Emmanuel Kant, saw the beginning of the reversal of these dominant ideas. Setting himself up a champion of reason (in a typical Trojan horse tactic of the intellectual variety) Kant proceeded to destroy the concept and precipitated a U-turn in the philosophical direction of western culture. It didn’t happen overnight, but the seeds were sown for the key ideas that a) reality is created by consciousness, and b) that reality is unknowable. Kant (and his promoters) reversed the thinking trend of the Renaissance and began the trend to undermine man’s mind by undermining our grasp of reality and our ability to know it. He picked up Plato’s ideas is essence that the human mind creates reality. An idea that 2 centuries later, is very popular today.

Ideas are powerful. They shape men’s lives and choices. Look at how people changed their behaviour and their lives in response to the bogus idea that a dangerous virus was sweeping the world during the alleged pandemic!  Fundamental ideas are the most powerful, and they influence people most fundamentally. They shape civilisations, and this is how political control is effected over the long term.

It’s important to acknowledge that ideas may support or conflict with the desires of the central bank shareholders and their agenda for political control. For example, the ideas of individualism, personal sovereignty and the right to live for one’s own sake, are not compatible with the goal of global political control. In other words, the ideas that dominated the renaissance were (and are) not compatible with global political control.

So were Kant’s ideas sponsored and promoted? I think it is most likely that this is the case.

We know that the concepts of secrecy, propaganda and deception are fundamental to misleading and therefore controlling people, and that these concepts have been employed by the central bank shareholders since 1694. For example, when setting up the bank they got the government to put in a share first, and then using the magic of fractional reserve banking they created many times that holding and lent it to themselves to use for the purchase of the rest of the shares! Bear all this in mind as we look at the string of deceptions of the last hundred years or so.

In the late 19^th century, a wealthy Rothschild man called Cecil Rhodes created a secret society and modeled it on the illuminati and the Jesuits. That is with concentric circles of secrecy, so that the outer members do not know what the true full agenda is. This knowledge is preserved for the inner most circle only. He was a key figure in bringing together immense wealth and men of influence in positions of power to steer the world towards not just the control of nation states, but of the entire globe, modeled on the British empire.

World War 1 Conspiracy – https://odysee.com/@corbettreport:0/wwi:b

Here are just a few examples of the public being deliberately misled and not being aware of it.

1. The crash of 1907 in the USA engineered by Rothschild front man JP Morgan.
2. The creation of the Federal Reserve as the private central bank of the USA. The seizure of control of the money supply of the USA, as had already been achieved across Europe.
3. WW1 and how the people were fooled into it on both sides of the Atlantic.
4. The hijacking of the soviet revolution by Leon Trotsky and other conspirators steering Russia into the Soviet Union collectivist state.
5. The supposedly super intelligent Einstein and his removal of the concept of the aether, his theory of the bending of light and quantum mechanics that has led to the widespread interpretation of the wave-particle duality and the adoption of the idea that thought creates reality (Kant).
6. The crash of 1929 and the great depression, created by the Fed and prolonged by government policy.
7. The fomentation of WW2 and the the further control of national economies and a reduction in economic freedom through ‘necessity’.
8. The space race nonsense and bogus moon landings.
9. The environmental movement since ‘silent spring’ in the 1960s.
10. The ‘rise of China’ in the late 1970s was enabled by various CFR members working hard behind the scenes in the USA.
11. The AIDS scam and bogus HIV virus since the 1980s.
12. The wars with Saddam Hussein in the middle east.
13. The big dupe of 9/11 in 2001.
14. Then all the nonsense with Foot and mouth disease in the UK and a string of “deadly viruses’ with SARS, Ebola, H1N1 bird flu and Swine flu.
15. The 7/7 bombings in London. One of the most transparently crafted false flag terrorist “attacks”.
16. Continuous climate alarmists catastrophising the claims that rising CO2 levels will destroy the planet.
17. And most recently the Corona virus con and the mass vaccination of millions of unthinking people.

In my opinion, to speak of a mass awakening in this broader context is just plain false. There has been a mass dumbing down of populations for many decades in the so-called “education system”, and the general awareness of populations has reduced accordingly. Yet many commentators, in their eagerness to be optimistic, proclaim that people are waking up! More and more people (they say) are beginning to question the narrative. They may well be seeing people asking questions and beginning to join some of the dots, but it is nowhere near sufficient to roll back the tide of the collectivist bio-security state that is almost upon us. It is misplaced optimism that borders on self-delusion.

The key coordinates for correctly interpreting what we are witnessing today are philosophical. Philosophy is the mother of all sciences and the study of fundamental ideas affecting the way men live, and it is the key to understanding both the problems we face and the solutions. It is only with the crucial coordinates of seeing how fundamental ideas have driven western civilisation off the road of progress towards peace freedom and abundance, and into the ditch of socialism leading towards tyranny, that we can make sense of the world around us.

The huge progress of mankind, out of subsistence and poverty into an industrial age of comfort and technological advancement was made possible by the ideas of the Enlightenment and the rebirth of reason in the minds of men, after the long dark ages ruled by mysticism. At the core was the recognition (in metaphysics) of the objective nature of reality and that things are what they are irrespective of any consciousness, and its corollary (in Epistemology) that man’s mind is capable of knowing reality by using his faculty of reason, by thinking logically and by using genuine scientific method. These were the twin ideas that lifted mankind out of the dark ages and which are responsible for all the modern conveniences we have come to take for granted. These are the twin ideas that have been rejected for the past 2 centuries. First by the philosophers themselves, who effectively destroyed their own profession, and then as these ideas filtered down to the masses (as ideas always do), we see the situation we are in today.

The third idea that locks us on a course to collectivism is Altruism. If you wish to understand why, go here.

If you care to understand why we are here, and to know the way out of collectivist slavery, you must know about philosophy and you should rightly study the philosophy of Ayn Rand. Hers is the philosophy of truth and therefore of peace and freedom, and therefore of prosperity and wealth creation. Hers is the only philosophy appropriate to a human life. But beware of the institutions (ARI and the Atlas Society) that have commandeered here ideas. None of them use it for its intended purpose. But they can still be useful for learning the ideas. You must become an independent individual thinker. You must evaluate the ideas of objectivism for yourself.
