Force and deception are the two great tools that are used to conquer and to enslave.
The more you can accomplish using deception, the less you will need to use force.
Force, especially military force, is very much more obvious and visible and conspicuous than deception. Deception by its very nature is invisible because it is intentionally hidden.
Those who are willing to start wars and to kill people in order to conquer the world are certainly willing to tell lies to conquer the world. That is why politicians cannot be trusted.
It is very much easier to lie, than to tell the truth and then use force to destroy the resistance that the truth creates.
In fact, this is one of the very important ways in which you can tell good from evil. Good men tell the truth. They can tell the truth because they really are good. Evil men lie. They cannot tell the truth because they are bad, and they want to appear good.
Deception rises to an art form. Plausible stories showing love and passionate conviction are invented. The deepest sincerity and the highest principles seem very evident. But it is all a script – written, acted, and directed by the best talent in the world. When you have trillions of dollars, you get the best lies money can buy.
The biggest deception is that there is no conspiracy.
Another big deception is that Russia and China are no threat to America.
Another big part of deception is setting up opposition to the truth. You want the truth to be denounced with passion and with righteous indignation. That will really fool people. A prime example of this is when Communists denounce freedom. They assume an attitude of righteousness and moral indignation, when their own program is one of massive murder, destruction, and slavery.
Along with this you get controversy. Anyone who stands up and states the truth is denounced as a moron and a racist and is personally attacked in every way possible. Every attempt is made to slander and to discredit the person and to destroy his career.
Along with this there are often large quantities of ridicule, contempt, scorn, foul language, and incoherent ranting. Sometimes there is blatant suppression of free speech. Sometimes there is a very real threat of physical violence.
Enduring this confusion and hostility drives people into apathy. They think it’s all hopeless. Nothing can be understood. Nothing can be done.
Things which are really quite simple are made to appear massively complex. They are complex because people are trying to make sense of things in the presence of one or more great lies.
One example of this is economics. Keynesian theory teaches that debt is great and wonderful. This is a great lie. Therefore you see students studying fat textbooks on economics. But what it all adds up to is a great lie.
If people don’t know what’s happening, they won’t fight back.
The Conspiracy wants you to be ignorant and confused and trusting and gullible.
If people are fighting wrong enemies, they will waste their energy. Or worse, they will help the bad guys destroy the good guys.
If you can persuade people that good guys are enemies, then they will fight for their own enslavement.
The more you can get people fighting each other, the less they will fight you. They won’t even know that you are the real enemy.
