Don’t Allow The 1% to Make Fools of Us

Junious Ricardo Stanton

            The only way an extremely small percentage of the world’s population can rob, and hoard most of the world’s wealth and manipulate and control the masses to work against our own best interests is to trick and dupe us into doing their bidding. The ruling classes don’t respect us; they view us as submissive sheep to be sheered and slaughtered at will. But they are not going to come out and say this in public to us, they use fancy and noble sounding words and phrases and coercion to dupe and intimidate us into going along with their program and their okey-doke. However upon closer examination this is exactly what they are doing to us now and have done for thousands of years. The later great Dr. Amos Wilson once said, “In sum, the ruling groups cannot maintain their hegemony and sustain socioeconomic inequality which are the foundations of their regency, without perverting the ostensible missions of the society’s sociopolitical institutions and utilizing them as instruments of oppression. In America this perversion must take place while the ruling groups hide their oppressive faces behind the seductive façade of democracy, liberty, equality, and brotherhood.” Black On Black Violence The Psychodynamics of Black Self-Annihilation In Service of White Domination page 46

          Abraham Lincoln once said, “You can fool all of the people some of the time, you can fool all the people some of the time but you can’t fool all of the people all of the time.”  George W. Bu$h a man no one ever accused of being brilliant said, “You can fool some of the people all the time, and those are the ones you want to concentrate on.” Our challenge as citizens of the world is not to be the ones the ruling classes concentrate on to hoodwink and bamboozle. But this is becoming more and more difficult every passing day due to the nefarious plotting and planning the ruling classes and their minions engage in for this very purpose.

         Most of their cunning is done in secret and they use misdirection and deceit to execute their agenda. Most people in the US don’t know the ruling elites’ history of mind control, https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/what-we-know-about-cias-midcentury-mind-control-project-180962836/ , they know very little about eugenics and population control http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/blog/unwanted-sterilization-and-eugenics-programs-in-the-united-states/, social engineering, https://www.realcleardefense.com/articles/2018/07/18/social_engineering_as_a_threat_to_societies_the_cambridge_analytica_case_113620.html  or their plans to reduce us to debt peons and wage slaves.  https://www.truthdig.com/articles/breaking-the-chains-of-debt-peonage/ 

        How is this possible? Because the ruling elites own the media and a handful of conglomerates control almost all media in the US https://www.forbes.com/sites/arielshapiro/2019/05/15/worlds-largest-media-companies-2019/#2531c3aa754b  Their goal is to control our thinking, to mold our worldviews and create a fake reality within an ubiquitous Matrix we are unaware of through the use of algorithms to predict, manipulate and control our thinking, buying and behavior. I call it the three “B’s” what we believe, what we buy and how we behave.  https://cyber.harvard.edu/story/2018-07/understanding-media-and-information-quality-age-artificial-intelligence-automation

      The ruling classes have gotten us hooked and addicted to their “social media” which is even more pervasive than television. Most of us are unaware social media is the Trojan horse to access our minds. We buy it and use it because it is popular, it gives us “status” and we are made to think, by the PR and advertising companies owned or employed by the ruling classes, that we cannot live without it. We never stop to think or ask is this thing spying on me, manipulating me or how this is affecting me.

     The secret is, it is in a very cunning manner. “Algorithms are invisible pieces of code that tell a computer how to accomplish a specific task. Think of it as a recipe for a computer: An algorithm tells the computer what to do in order to produce a certain outcome. Every time you do a Google search or look at your Facebook feed or use GPS navigation in your car, you’re interacting with an algorithm. A new book by Hannah Fry, a mathematician at University College London, argues that we shouldn’t think of algorithms themselves as either good or bad, but that we should be paying much more attention to the people programming them. Algorithms are making hugely consequential decisions in our society on everything from medicine to transportation to welfare benefits to criminal justice and beyond. Yet the general public knows almost nothing about them, and even less about the engineers and coders who are creating them behind the scenes.” https://www.vox.com/technology/2018/10/1/17882340/how-algorithms-control-your-life-hannah-fry

            The goal of the modern ruling class which includes corporate CEOs, both elected and non-elected officials is to create a social environment that is predictable for them because they program and control it. One of the ways they do this is to control what we watch, listen to, think and believe. They are not doing this for our benefit. Former CIA Director William Casey who served under Ronald Reagan said, “We’ll Know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” This is an actual quote and it is symbolic of the ruling class’ distain and intent for us. It is up to us not to allow them to dumb us down. There is no real red pill for us to take to wake ourselves up. What we have to do is to think for yourself, be skeptical, discerning and discriminating with your media consumption.
