Herding Humans 101
Are humans a herdable species? Bleat once for YES, twice for NO.
I understand if you find the thought offensive, but it really isn’t. We’re a social species with a tendency to follow the leader, a trait reflected in the hierarchical structure of our societies. Seriously, if you’ve ever succumbed to peer pressure then haven’t you already lived a herd Reality? Unless you live as a hermit, you’ve certainly dealt with peer pressure even if you haven’t bent to its will.
The fact is we don’t think for ourselves as much as we believe we do. Sure, we connect our own dots, but those who feed us those dots explicitly choose them to specifically elicit those connections. In short, when we trust those sources, they can easily shape our perceptions and beliefs and from there drive our actions.
So, I am not trying to offend you, but the Truth often hurts. It is how you deal with the hurt that matters. Holding oneself accountable to painful Truths leads to personal growth and understanding. Dismissing or ignoring those Truths leaves one confused, mired in the middle of the herd where the question of concern becomes, is the herd being corralled to the slaughter?
So, hello to the thinkers out there, are you ready to exercise your brain again? It will be well worth the effort.
Are you among the growing number of people that recognize much of our world is backwards? That the world we’re living in does not make a lot of sense. For instance, the politicians we pay to defend our freedoms are actively stripping them from us, the police we pay to protect us are actively assaulting people protesting those political losses, that the medical community we pay to keep us healthy is making us sick or worse, that schools we pay to educate are indoctrinating instead, that the legal system we pay to deliver justice is delivering injustice, and that the media we pay to inform us conspires to keep us in the dark.
We are living in a backward bizarro world where our perceptions are a wobbly fun-house mirror’s view of Reality. So, far from trying to offend you, I am going to try to help by explaining how Deceit is the singular reason we are living in that bizarro world.
In past essays I’ve attempted to show the impact of Deceit on our perceptual and political processes, and also how it damages our Spiritual relationship with God. There are several compelling reasons for focusing on Deceit, beginning with the fact that Deceit is the common denominator, the singular cause of all our backwards bizarro situations. The B.A.D.A.S.S. Analysis reveals Deceit’s ability to promote a totalitarian agenda on a free people. Deceit is the primary cause of the rise in Tyranny that the world is experiencing and until we gain an understanding of how to discern and defeat it, Tyranny’s advance will continue with massive carnage and death to follow.
Information is our knowledge carrier and if it is controlled by the Deceivers, their Deceit turns our perception of knowledge into a Reality of ignorance that they work to exploit for their benefit. Deceit is topic independent so once you find it, you can make some instantaneous political observations about any subject at all. The Deceit will create a rift between perception and Reality, and that rift will lead to specific political mistakes. The wrong problem will be solved, and therefore the wrong solution will be less than optimal. It is a sad state of affairs when less than optimal is the best result society can hope for.
Now, once you understand that the purpose of that Deceit is the gain of political power, you will know that the consequences are well understood by the Deceivers from the start and that the negative consequences are designed, and their harmful impacts are deliberate. Once you come to accept this Truth, it tells you everything you need to know about the contemptuous and hateful purveyors of those Deceits. First, they are not your friends. Second, their Deceits will taint their work on every important political topic, calling into question everything they have ever told us. So yes, all their Fake News work is political and everything we think we know about those subjects is likely wrong. Hence, bizarro world!
Please do not confuse Deceit-induced ignorance with stupidity. In no way does this ignorance indicate intellectual inferiority. In fact, those who consume the most information are often choking down the most intellectual toxins so the highly educated and “well-informed”, or heavily informed, are most susceptible to the Deceits simply due to their trust in the system providing them their intellectual fuel. Their natural intellects will properly connect the trusted dots and result in misperceptions, those misperceptions will result in confusion rather than understanding, and that confusion will produce delusional beliefs and what should be wisdom turns to foolishness.
The irony of an information laden world producing the most ignorant of societies weighs heavily, doesn’t it?
The IT Explanation
For the record, what follows is a simplified look at an IT process but think 30,000-foot view, not dumbed down.
For a developer, the results of running software programs and processes are its consequences. If the program breaks or produces erroneous results, then it is the developer’s responsibility to track down and fix the cause of those problematic consequences.
However, the process gets more complicated once the software is running for real because there is a good possibility that the failed or failing process has updated underlying files and databases with partial or incorrect information. While finding and fixing the source of the problem is still paramount, in general, the fixed programs can’t be restarted without first undoing the work erroneously completed by the broken process.
In effect, it is a return to square one, the state the databases and files were in prior to running the damaged programs. In essence, you want the environment to look like the broken process never existed and the harms it caused never occurred.
The issue becomes even more complex when the underlying problem remains undetected for long periods of time, which can happen when the mistaken results aren’t large enough to trigger immediate notice. When the mistake finally comes to light, it could mean that the software process has delivered months, or even years, of bad reports and data to its customers. If those customers lost revenue because of it, they obviously would want recompense for their losses and assurances that the problem is fixed.
For the developer, then, accountability can be viewed as the total cost of fixing the mistake so there is powerful incentive to ensure that the software not only works correctly but that it meets the stated goals with respect to the customer’s needs and requirements.
The best result is when errors are identified and fixed before or during the Quality Assurance testing process, thereby avoiding costly errors in the first place. From that point on Accountability increases as the error’s impact spreads. Internally, the costs depend on the complexity and difficulty of finding the error and can consume considerable resources in both money and people. Some problems can cause serious issues with other Business Units and outside customers that can lead to decreased trust, regulatory fines, loss of business, and possibly financial reparations. Unnecessary troubles that corporate executives are loathe to deal with.
The Fake News Political Process
B.A.D.A.S.S. views Fake News as the political equivalent of software requirements. The perspective Fake News Narratives spin defines the problem to be solved and provides the justification for political action. The political policy that follows equates to the software designed to satisfy those Fake requirements.
As B.A.D.A.S.S. has often mentioned in prior posts, Fake News is a Deceit-driven Narrative so the perceptions it creates are delusional and the political policy crafted to resolve the situation will therefore be designed to solve the wrong problem. In other words, assuming that the policy designers (developers) are competent, the policy’s logic (software) will be wrong, and the resulting consequences will be incorrect.
The software is buggy at heart so it will fail to correctly address the intended requirements. This is guaranteed.
This brings us to the critical divergence between the two worlds. In the IT world, the incentive is to fix data and software errors early and forever. This isn’t the case in the political world, where the primary intent is to acquire and keep Political Power so when the Fake News Narrative delivers that Political Power Rulers are incentivized to continue capitalizing on the Fake Narrative’s impact. The strength of the Fake Narrative is so great that the losing parties, rather than attack the Fake Narrative and bring Reality back into the mix, will completely succumb to it and blindly craft their own incorrect solutions to fix the wrong problem.
Fixing the wrong problem will always generate negative consequences and exacerbate, or more likely create the very problems the policy was supposed to fix. This traps society in a perpetual cycle of failure for the Ruled and perpetual success for the Rulers.
We fall further and further away from solving the problem while continually increasing Government control of societal wealth and power. Hence, the bizarro backwards world we live in.
While it is possible to undo software failure harms in IT, in the political world the only solution is to immediately end the policy and re-evaluate the situation. Unfortunately, as this damaging process is planned and deliberate all the accumulated data, like the COVID-19 related PCR test results, will range from muddled and unreliable at best to completely useless. Fortunately, as soon as the Narrative Deceits are known, the unnecessary policy can immediately be ended with the understanding that the negative consequences end with it. No studies required.
Another look at the situation
Software is full of conditional statements, which are places in the code where decisions are made. If the software makes the wrong decision (because the developer screwed up) the process will take a wrong turn, execute the wrong code, and produce the wrong results. These bugs typically show themselves early and are quickly fixed.
What happens in the Fake News political process is that the policy produced, as it is designed to solve the wrong problem, will always make a wrong turn, and push us in the wrong direction. However, as the goal is the accumulation of Political Power the political/media complex that desires that Power has no incentive to tell us otherwise.
Instead, they will continue to run with the Fake Narrative and tell us we’re moving in the right direction while all the consequences tell us the exact opposite. This is why they keep our “news” filled with fresh, new fears. They keep our focus everywhere but on the source of our problems. Hence, the fun-house mirror world we live in.
Remember, for them it is critical that society never understand it is running in the wrong direction and straight towards the cliff where freedom falls, which is why the Fake Narrative must be protected at all costs.
When it comes to COVID-19, the justification for the implementation of the global COVID-19 Response was predicated on two major Deceits; the initial, inflated model death guesses called projections and the elimination of the great strength of our natural immune systems to keep us alive. These quantifiable Deceits were described in “Fire Them All – Part 1”. Part 2 dealt the PCR Test protocol deceits and one of the evilest programs the world has ever experienced.
The End Is Fear
As our world is hierarchical in nature, it would seem that the pinnacle of that hierarchy would have room for only one individual. That is true, and it is God the Creator that rests in that seat.
However, we also must deal with the dual Reality of the Spiritual and the Physical Realms, and that while God remains the ultimate judge, He has allowed others to temporarily rule in the Physical Realm. Unfortunately for the world, it is Satan that actively governs from the top of the Physical hierarchy and the results are clear for all to see.
Both God and Satan use Fear to guide their sheep, with the major difference between the two Rancher’s approach being one works through the Light of Truth and other through the Darkness of Deceit. Keep in mind that all God’s and Satan’s helpers, the preachers, and leaders we follow, work for the Rancher not us, the sheep, and the honest helpers share their leader’s overarching strategies.
God and the Light of Truth
God promises a glorious life to those guided by the Light of His Truth. For many, the difficult part of reaching that promise is that it takes Faith to acquire, and the minor matter that its full realization only occurs after our physical death. One must believe in God’s word and the power of Jesus Christ to open the gates to the promised land, a heaven we cannot see with our earthly senses. It is a leap too far for many.
On top of this is the fact the other Rancher, Satan, works diligently to convince us that God either doesn’t exist or can’t deliver on His promise because we can belong to only one Rancher, and Satan wants us all in his herd.
God offers Free Will but not Free Reign. God has few rules and while most can agree that some are basic moral matters, such as don’t steal or kill, others require the discipline to forsake the pleasures of the flesh for the promise of Spiritual salvation. Our inability to do so is the point where Free Will lands us in Sin trouble.
Now, God allows us to do what we wish, but that doesn’t mean He gives us Free Reign to do anything we wish. While breaking His rules might lead to riches, celebrity, and thrills in this world, when your time is up, that exercise of Free Reign comes at a fiery, eternal cost whether you believe in God or not.
Possibly the greatest earthly gift that people who truly Fear God receive is the elimination of earthly fears. If one doesn’t fear death because they have lived according to God’s word and expect to be welcomed into Heaven, then Satan has little he can threaten them with.
Sure, Satan can make our lives miserable. He can torment us, oppress us, and terrorize us, but those horrors are temporary and temporal, they don’t follow us into the next life and at some point, Satan will pay the ultimate price.
So, somewhat ironically, Faith and Fear in God is a fear destroyer, and the elimination of those fears allows joy and kindness to exist amidst a world filled with evil.
God has no reason to lie. He speaks clearly to us so there is no misunderstanding about the consequences to come should we turn our backs on His Truth. Does that take Faith? Yes. Is it difficult? Yes. However, ask yourself this question. If everyone lived by His commandments, would we be living the totalitarian nightmare we are going through right now? Not a chance, but we are living that nightmarish fright, and a big reason for that is Satan is a big, fat Deceiver and that vile, repugnant scumbag is in control of much of the world’s hierarchical Authority complex.
Satan and the Darkness of Deceit
On the other hand, Satan is all about the physical pleasures of this world. If it feels good, do it. No moral restrictions, no restraints, and best of all, no judgement. Do what you want, when you want, with or to whom you want and fame, fortune, and even celebrity status can be yours.
Satan does offer Free Reign and while that would seem to include Free Will, it doesn’t. Try sticking to the Reality of God and see how you’re treated. Refuse to accept the Deceitful narratives that drive our social and political worlds, and you will quickly find out how intolerant the tolerant of indecency can be. They are wicked, mean, vengeful, spiteful, and downright hateful towards anyone who rejects them.
The further away from God Satan can drag you the better. He mocks God and believers because those who fear God have little else to fear, and through his masterful use of Deceit, fear is both Satan’s greatest political tool and most powerful Spiritual weapon. Satan has every reason to lie because to tell the Truth would cause many of his flock to run for greener pastures. Explaining the eternal Spiritual costs of joining his herd is definitely not in his playbook.
It isn’t just the allure of physical temptations that Satan capitalizes on to lead people astray. He gets much more pleasure out of convincing good people to do bad things to their neighbours. Again, he can’t manage that feat with the Truth so the key to his phenomenal success in this regard is Deceit.
The impact of Deceit on perceptions is always direct assault on Reality because the purpose of Deceit is to ensure one does not understand the Truth. Those mistaken perceptions then work to form delusional beliefs and this detachment from Reality is a real problem in the Spiritual Realm. Here is why.
Three of the Seven Spirits of God are,
- The Spirit of knowledge
- The Spirit of understanding
- The Spirit of wisdom
Deceit flips knowledge into ignorance, understanding into confusion, and wisdom into foolishness. We end up believing in things that aren’t and God watches three of his seven Spirits take a direct hit. The other four Spirits suffer as well so it is no wonder Satan loves Deceit. For the unaware, those four are comprised of the Spirit of the Lord, the Spirit of strength, the Spirit of counsel, and the Spirit of Fear of the Lord.
However, it is in the political world that Deceit causes good people to do great harm to others because it gets those in positions of Authority to believe the absurd and the policy that follows will, as previously described, cause harmful consequences. Good people in positions of authority will then act believing they are working in the best interests of their fellow man, but in Reality, their absurd beliefs prevent them from seeing the harm they’re doing. The result is they willingly, though unwittingly, end up committing vile atrocities against those they think they’re helping. Worse still, because they believe they’re doing good, they will insist on inflicting harm on the innocent.
I wish that were the worst of it, but it isn’t because many of the innocent being harmed also believe it is for their own good, so they will pressure others to accept the atrocities being committed against them. A great current example is allowing or insisting children be jabbed with an experimental, gene altering, mRNA shot that has a much better chance of severely injuring or killing them than the wimpy culler of the old and weak called COVID-19 ever could.
Deceit truly is a Force of Evil.
A final word for the agnostic out there, those who think they’ve chosen a neutral corner in the great battle. There is no such thing as neutrality in the war between Good and Evil, if one doesn’t choose Team Good and actively work to repel Evil, then the final consequence is the aiding and abetting of Evil. We are all accountable for the consequences of political Tyranny and doing nothing leads to something none of us will enjoy.
Regardless, we are herded into one flock or the other through Fear. We serve one of these two Masters, though many serve Satan unknowingly and will therefore find this characterization offensive. If so, sign up and leave a comment explaining why you are immune to humanity’s natural herd instincts.
One final message. The Evil is here, and it will get worse if people fail to stand up to it. It will kill millions, if not billions this go around. So, whether you are willing to fight against it or not, maybe it is time to open your heart to God and invite Jesus into your life. Being able to dismiss Satan’s weaponization of fear and totalitarian oppression while looking forward to an eternal life by God’s side never looked so good.
If you have reached this point, thanks for thinking!
Until next week where the title of the post is, “What time is your Great Awakening alarm set for?”
I remain concerned that far too many Canadians have failed to set that alarm considering they have somehow found reason to re-elect Prime Minister Trudeau and Ontario Premier Doug Ford. That said, the only alternatives worthy of a vote would be a party willing to bring Crimes Against Humanity charges against all the COVID-19 neo-Tyrants, and I don’t think that party exists in this long-slumbering gulag.
