Brainwashing Incorporated: The Tavistock Institute

A book recommendation

Like many of you the last five years have changed my worldview in devastating ways. Throughout my childhood, teenage years, my single years and most of my married life I did not think much about politics except during Presidential elections during which, I suspect, I was heavily influenced by the media. Overall my political involvement was minimal. I had no interest.

Daniel Estulin in Tavistock Institute: Social Engineering the Masses, argues that this apathy or disinterest is by design. An FBI memo about the Grateful Dead stated they used the group

“‘to channel youth dissent and rebellion into more benign and non-threatening directions.’ [They] performed a vital service in distracting many young persons into drugs and mysticism, rather than politics.”¹

Though I never became a “deadhead” or participated in free sex and drugs, I was occupied with things other than politics. When I got married the “struggle for the legal tender,” as Jackson Browne puts it, became an occupying concern and still is to this day. The lockdowns hurt both our home-based businesses considerably and we’ve been scrambling to increase our income (not looking for sympathy, just reporting the reality that likely many of you are also experiencing). This is what the globalists want. It works better than “jackboot terror.” Estulin writes:

To keep the majority in a continual state of inner anxiety works because people are made too busy securing or competing for their own survival to co-operate in mounting an effective response.²

So much in this book was new to me. I’d never heard of theTavistock Institute. Estulin’s opening sentence is:

Tavistock in Sussex, England, “is the world’s centre for mass brainwashing and social engineering activities.”³

He writes about Paperclip, the Club of Rome, the Rockefellers and much, much more. Though I’ve been exposed to some of these entities over the last five years I really know very little about them. In this recommendation, and I highly recommend the book, I’ll focus on general statements and ideas that made this such a captivating book.

The most interesting chapter for me, in light of the recent Trump assassination attempt, was “Killing of the King.” In this chapter Estulin writes about the ramifications of the assassination of JFK. It’s only been in last five years that I’ve come to believe that our government murdered JFK, but I have never heard some of things that Estulin writes about it. Here are some examples:

In their underground bestseller, “King-Kill/33,” James Shelby Downard and Michael A. Hoffman II explain the mechanics of the assassination: “Keep in mind that the ultimate purpose of John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s assassination was not political or economic but sorcerous: for the control of the dreaming mind and the marshalling of its forces is the omnipotent force in this entire scenario of lies, cruelty and degradation. Remember that once you spread the deadly virus, the disease will do the rest. Something died in the American people on November 22, 1963 – call it idealism, innocence or the quest for moral excellence. It is the transformation of human beings, which is the authentic reason and motive for the Kennedy murder.”⁴

Estulin quotes James Shelby Downard’s Sorcery, Sex, Assassination and the Science of Symbolism:

“The systematic arrangement and pattern of symbolic things having to do with the killing of Kennedy indicates that he was a scapegoat in a sacrifice.”⁵

“Masonry does not believe in murdering a man in just any old way and in the JFK assassination it went to incredible lengths and took great risks in order to make this heinous act of theirs correspond to the ancient fertility oblation of the Killing of the King.”⁶

He goes on to quote Michael Hoffman from Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare:

“What ought to be unambiguous to any student of mass psychology, is the almost immediate decline of the American people in the wake of this shocking, televised slaughter. There are many indicators of the transformation. Within a year Americans had largely switched from softer-toned, naturally coloured cotton clothing to garish-coloured artificial polyesters. Popular music became louder, faster and more cacophonous. Drugs appeared for the first time outside the Bohemian subculture ghettos, in the mainstream. Extremes of every kind came into fashion. Revolutions in cognition and behaviour were on the horizon, from the Beatles to Charles Manson, from Free Love to LSD.”⁷

“There was a sense that the men who ordered the assassination were grinning somewhere over cocktails and out of this, a nearly-psychedelic wonder seized the American population, an awesome shiver before the realization that whoever could kill a president of the United States in broad daylight and get away with it, could get away with anything.”⁸

In one of my recent posts, influenced by Estulin’s book, I wrote about using our symbols in our images, memes, essays, art, poetry, writing, etc. That idea came from the paragraphs below:

So, why do secret societies hide things in plain sight? Among many reasons, according to their belief system, to influence world politics at the most urgent time through reverse psychology. Symbols, don’t forget, also represent territorial marks of ownership.
By controlling all of the major corporations on Earth and embedding Masonic and occult references in the media, subliminally or otherwise, secret societies are projecting their strength. The power of the image is not only visual. It is a sophisticated tool designed to convey meaning on the one hand and disorient on the other. It is a form of psychological assault, with the number one target to destabilize the victim’s rational belief system.⁹

How should our symbols work? Are we trying to destabilize the victim’s irrational or evil belief system? Subconsciously? Honestly, I’ve never thought about it before. I would think that our symbols should be a source of comfort and courage for those already in our camp. For those outside our camp it lets them know who we are and the territory we’re claiming. Would love to hear other thoughts on this!

Here are some quotes from the rest of the book (more than I planned). It’s well worth the read.

Once the neurotic map of each individual was determined, Tavistock was able to set up a “filtering” mechanism, that is different forms of brainwashing, to select various neurotic types and place them in their appropriate settings.¹⁰

---

An individual is made to transfer his or her identity to the group, wherein they become subjected to the most intense forms of suggestion. Provided the individual’s inner sense of real identity is destroyed, he can be manipulated like a child.¹¹

---

All of these techniques share an ontological purpose: to manipulate perceptions and to re-create reality.¹²

Listening to excerpts from the DNC convention about how important freedom and democracy are and how Trump and MAGA want to destroy it, makes me think of this. Not only is it putting on their opponents the very things they’re doing, but more importantly it is a reshaping of reality in the minds of those who have been brainwashed and propagandized. 2 + 2 = 5.

---

The Tavistock – and the Reesian method – that the class war should be waged with “weapons that affect morale more than they take life” – has become, in the post-war period, the primary weapons system of the Rockefeller forces, including their own covert arm, the Central Intelligence Agency.¹³

This is seen with Climate Change which has frightened a whole generation, maybe two, to believe that the future is bleak or possibly nonexistent.

---

With JFK front and center, we are awash not in the coincidental but in the subliminal, and the possibility that the mythic battle between demonic and angelic forces are yet being recreated on planet Earth.¹⁴

Evil exists. People deny this or ignore it at their peril.

According to Science Policy Research Unit [SPRU] at Tavistock’s Sussex University facility, ‘future shocks’ is defined “as physical and psychological distress arising from the excess load on the decision-making mechanism of the human mind.” In other words, “a series of events, which come so fast that the human brain cannot absorb the information.” After continuous shocks, the large targeted population group discovers that it does not want to make choices any more. Apathy takes over, often preceded by mindless violence such as is characteristic of the Los Angeles street gangs in the 1960s and the 1980s. “Such a group becomes easy to control and will docilely follow orders without rebelling, which is the object of the exercise.”¹⁵

I was truly amazed at how many people followed orders during the lockdowns. Then how many followed orders to take the vaccine. The fervor with which some people defended getting vaccinated was startling.

Viewers, as they become habituated to watching six hours or more of television daily, surrender their powers of reason to the images and sound coming from the tube.”27 Tavistock recognised that habituated television watching destroys the ability of a person for critical cognitive activity. In other words, it makes you stupid.¹⁶

Unfortunately, my parents did not limit by television viewing when I was a kid and I often wonder how much effect this has had on my mind.

Quoting Trist and Emery (Turn off your TV, Lonnie Wolfe, New Federalist, p.12-13, 1997):

“Under the conditions of increasing social turbulence, people change their values, yielding to new degraded values, values that are less human and more animal-like.”¹⁷

---

Quoting Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz:

“At the beginning of the eighteenth century, Leibniz obliterated the centuries old Gnostic dualism dividing mind and body, by demonstrating that matter does not think. A creative act in art or science apprehends the truth of the physical universe, but it is not determined by that physical universe. By self-consciously concentrating the past in the present to effect the future, the creative act, properly defined, is as immortal as the soul which envisions the act.”¹⁸

I like this quote a lot.

---

Quoting Michael J. Minnicino from The New Dark Age: The Frankfurt School and Political Correctness:

“The problem was, that as long as the individual had the belief – or even the hope of the belief – that his or her divine spark of reason could solve the problems facing society, then that society would never reach the state of hopelessness and alienation which was recognized as the necessary prerequisite for socialist revolution.”¹⁹

That these monsters want to squash hope and belief in the divine makes me think of the phrase I’ve seen a lot lately: “You don’t hate these people enough.”

---

The fantasized pinnacle of transhumanist world provides us with the clearest view of its deadly ends, when seen through the eye of a physical world lacking universal truth and “the sacred responsibility of the sovereign individual to act for the Good.” And without universal truth, there can be no reason. If truth is killed, then our civilization is killed with it.²⁰

---

Truth always lies in the higher order of processes. True sovereignty lies not in popular opinion, but in the creative powers of the individual human mind. The only defense we have against the mind benders is to develop our own mental capabilities – individually – as a firewall against psychological warfare and cultural colonialism.²¹
