Emotional highjacking by digital prophets

Here is commentary from a YouTuber in Boston who is Jewish and studies the Torah:

Look at all the ADHD medicine that’s prescribed to Gen Z and Millennials.

It’s all over the news, all over the television, nothing but these commercials for different mind-altering consciousness chemicals and most of society is in an altered state of consciousness.

Most of society isn’t vigilant and sober. Whether that is drinking alcohol to taking whatever thing out there that changes your state of consciousness.

This gets even deeper when we start thinking of what was the next mission of Timothy Leary, the 1960’s LSD guy from Harvard that Jordan Peterson took over for. It was chaotic and now it’s all about order.

The next mission from “tune in, drop out” is the plug-in and goes into the cyberdelics. Cyberdelics is the fusion and the immersion in cyberspace as a sort of psychedelic experience.

So you’ll be scrolling on your “doom scroll” and you will be having a Shamanic experience doom-scrolling. Why is it called scrolling, by the way? That’s interesting verbiage. Think of the Dead Sea Scrolls.

People are listening to these different podcasters that push people into this survival state. When you’re put into a survival state like during the lockdowns, or any time where there’s real fear, the person doing it will feel special: “I’m special; I’m in survival mode,” and marketers like Canadian philosopher Marshall McLuhan wrote books about this (including his 1964 “Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man”) and they understand this.

There are two psychological aspects to get people to buy a product or a vote and that’s fear and greed. Right here is the emotional highjacking of the amygdala.

Getting people emotional is a narcissistic tool to control; it’s a psychopathic tool to control the audience, or the people being ruled by this Hegelian master-slave dynamic.

What brings somebody to want to be led by a digital prophet? What makes somebody say, like, “Hey, I’ve got to listen to this (social media personality) Andrew Tate to lead me to what to do.” What brings somebody to a Candace Owen or anybody influencing?

People don’t want to think for themselves or take action. Let me tell you, when you start trusting your own gut and your own intuition and having your own discernment, and start taking action based on the self-esteem of having faith in God that you’re going to make the right moves, your self-esteem builds.

That’s the big thing—the removal of the self. That’s the big thing; the audience captured. What a narcissist is, according to Alexander Lowen, is somebody who has killed their emotional self.

So they have removed their emotions and become a robot, so they’re not tapped into who they are and all those emotions and crap like that gets stored into our bodies.

Who are the clandestine puppet masters behind these influencers the masses are having para-social bonds with, thinking their having “facetime” with these TikTok conspiracy influencers and political commentators, building a bond that’s only one directional?

Are the puppet masters behind these influencers manipulating minds for a certain outcome? Take a look at Michael Foucault’s “Governmentality is the ‘Conduct of Conduct’ ”.

Take a look at Oswald Spengler’s “The Decline of the West.” There’s also Gustav Le Bon’s “The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind.”

We hear this term "the ratio" as if that’s a good thing, being part of the collective: "The ratio is who told me that I have to stay home; that I had to partake in this United Nations agenda." It’s the crowd-mind, "the pluribus,” and that’s who I’m terrified of.

If the ratio says, “You need to do this,” and socialism is the group; it’s the ratio.

(Definition from a website: "Ratio started on Twitter in the mid‑2010s and originally described tweets with more replies than likes/retweets. Since then it’s become a broader slang across platforms—including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube—where it refers to any post that gets attacked in the comment section rather than supported. Being ratioed is both content signal and cultural meme.")

Here is a post from a few years back:

Evil forces vying for power and control today are banking on the human phenomenon known as “source amnesia,” which leads people to forget whether or not a statement is true.

“Even when a lie is presented with a disclaimer, people often later remember it as true,” informs a New York Times op-ed column on the subject. “With time, this misremembering only gets worse. A false statement from a non-credible source that is at first not believed can gain credibility during the months it takes to reprocess memories from short-term hippocampal storage to longer-term cortical storage. As the source is forgotten, the message and its implications gain strength.”

Obviously you can see the biblical implications. That’s why you hear all kinds of outrageously untrue statements about what the Bible really says. People listen to other people’s lies and don’t remember what they once knew as fact from God’s Word.

"In the Bible, truth is more than just being right all the time; it’s the ultimate basis of reality," says Richard Jordan. "What makes what’s real? God.

“You know that coffee table is solid, but at the atomic and sub-atomic level it isn’t. Well, what’s reality really made of? In Scripture, the ultimate source of what’s real—not illusionary, but what’s real—is who God is.

“There’s a scene in one of the Indiana Jones movies where, at the end, everything resolves itself; they figure out the mystery they’re looking for in the crystal and Indy asks, ‘Well, did they go out into space?’ The other guy says, ‘Yes, the space between things.’

“You know that what he’s talking about is not outer space. You take an atom

and it’s got all these neutrons, protons and electrons that circle. Well, what’s between all that?

*****

The thing you notice more and more about yourself as you study and try to apply God’s Word is how much you lie to yourself.

The more the lie is subconsciously reinforced in the brain the harder it becomes not to buy into it as truth on a physical-emotional level where it actually debilitates you in a very real way.

Paul writes in I Thess. 2: 13, “For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.”

Jordan asks, “How do you get where the truth effectually works inside of you, and produces its work in you so when your feet hit the ground you’re off doing what God’s Word says you should be doing? How to you get from where it’s stuff you just know in your head to stuff that lives in your life?”

He answers, “There’s one word and it’s not religion. It’s not rules or regulations; performance systems. Look at what the word is—believe.

“You know what the long and the short of it is, folks? When you read a verse of Scripture and it says that this action and attitude ought to be the action and attitude you take as a Believer, because you’re a Believer—because you’re complete in Christ and you know who you are—it should be, ‘This is the way I will live my life on a daily basis; this is how God would live and act in me.’

“When you don’t do that, you know why you don’t do it? Because you don’t believe the verse! That’s all there is to it! There’s not any other excuse. You’ve got misplaced dependencies; your confidence is not in God’s Word; it’s not in who God’s made you in Christ. It’s in you or someone else and what you want and not what God wants.

“You want the verses to work in your life? Believe. That’s all you got to do. The only response grace will accept is faith and when you believe the verses, you know what they’ll do? They’ll transform your life into what they say. The reality of what they say WILL work in your life.

“Your emotions are designed to respond (that’s why there’s the word motion) and God has built you so a part of your inner man’s designed to put into motion the things that your heart and your mind have chosen to do.

“But the order is facts first. Then you have to faith in the facts. And once you have faith in the facts, it will produce some fruit. And the fruit will then produce the feeling.

“You have to have it in that order, because until your faith rests in the reality of the facts, those facts can never go to work in your life. They’ll just be rolling around in your head. When your faith rests in them, your faith in those facts releases the power of that truth and it works effectually in you that believe.”
