“It is hardly necessary to point out that the inability of the masses to judge correctly deprives them of any capacity for critical thought—that is, the ability to distinguish truth from error and to form a sound judgment. The judgments adopted by the masses are merely imposed on them and are never the result of careful examination. Many individuals, in this respect, do not rise above the level of the crowd. The ease with which certain opinions become widely accepted is due above all to the inability of most people to form an opinion of their own on the basis of personal reasoning.”
Gustave Le Bon
“Government is the illusion of authority, but more importantly government is mind control. Naturally, since if you want people to believe in this fictitious thing called ‘authority’ you first have to mold the minds of the collective to accept this false ideology. This is what government is. It’s the illusion of some “official” group of people out there who get to tell everybody else what to do and how to do it. The truth is there is no such thing as authority, and government is an illusion that we’ve imposed upon ourselves from the irrational thinking of a controlled mind.
It’s generally agreed that the power of government ultimately comes from the people. Governments seem to have rights that individuals do not. And it’s agreed that it is these individuals that make up government. It doesn’t take much critical thinking to realize that individuals are granting power that they don’t possess to a group of other individuals who call themselves ‘government’. One cannot delegate a right that they do not possess individually. This is one of the fundamental reasons why government is completely and utterly fallacious.”

“True genius resides in the capacity for evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information.”
Sir Winston Churchill
“And so, one must keep repeating the truth, because error is constantly being preached all around us as well—not by individuals, but by the masses. In newspapers and encyclopedias, in schools and universities—everywhere error is on top, and it feels comfortable and at ease, in the awareness of the majority that is on its side.”
Wolfgang von Goethe
“The mass media are a kind of mouthpiece for the consciousness of the population. If this powerful instrument falls into the wrong hands, it can cause more damage than all available nuclear weapons combined.”
Christian Faltermeier
“Delusion is a self-contained value system that leads to a loss of rationality because it blocks open and critical thinking. When delusion arises in a community, irrational beliefs are amplified in the communal experience, reaching a fever pitch in moments of ecstasy that give individuals a feeling of happiness and power.
Mass delusion can have a neurotic and a psychotic component. Neurosis is the struggle between inner and outer reality. It is designed to win, otherwise it succumbs to panic. Psychosis is a closed value system in which the affected person feels completely secure. They are not in conflict with the reality of the outside world, but live in their own value system, which they perceive as real. A closed system defends its autonomy by developing a self-contained logic and deriving norms from it that must be accepted without question.
People who find themselves in a closed system become blind to reality and, when their irrational forces are unleashed, easily slip into dangerous delusion.”
Hermann Broch
“On a metaphysical level, the State, whether real or imagined, is a faith based deity existing in the minds of its believers, generally based on a combination of the adoration of a Great Man along with an illogical fear of a Bogeyman in conjunction with an unblinking faith in the political process. That faith in turn relies on a dramatic opera-like performance on the part of politicians as they attempt to appear relevant, while the shadow government of bureaucrats and corporate/banking puppet masters attempts to remain unseen. All the while the State struggles to provide services it claims the monopolistic right to provide, while miserably failing at providing those services. On the occasion that the State’s true nature is revealed and its failures exposed, it always responds by sending in waves of lies by actors on all levels, while systematically discrediting, beating down, or murdering anyone who shines the light on those failures.
The State relies on an incredibly delicate balancing act between the disinterest of its victims, the imagery of a functioning political process, and faith in government-lead progress toward some mythical idea of a better tomorrow, in contrast with the reality of a non-functional puppet political process and an ever growing ever consuming Beast, driving humanity toward world-wide slavery at best, and species wide destruction as a very real possibility.”

“Before the pandemic, I thought that the masses didn’t know what was going on in the world because they didn’t have enough time to educate themselves. I now realize that’s not a good excuse. The average beer drinker who is addicted to “Love Island” and other reality shows had enough time to do their research and realize who controls our world and how they do it, but they chose not to. Ignorance is a choice, and that choice is costing us our rights and freedom. The average person doesn’t want to know the truth; there is no thirst for knowledge, no inner desire to regain our freedom or protect our children’s rights. As long as people have enough bread, entertainment, and beer to drink away their worries and celebrate “their” victories, they are quite content to be ruled. In fact, they enjoy it because it relieves them of their personal responsibilities. So it’s a good thing that the future of society lies in the hands of an angry and tireless minority, not a sleeping majority. You can call them “conspiracy theorists.” I call them freedom activists, servants of truth. It doesn’t take a majority to win, just an angry and tireless minority willing to light the fires of freedom in the minds of the people.”

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the reality of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist.”
Hannah Arendt
