The people in control of most of the world are trying to instate a technocratic system of enslavement around the globe. They will use the AI surveillance grid (see my article on the AI surveillance grid as a tool of control for their coming technocracy.

The definition of technocracy is &#8220;the government or control of society or industry by an elite of technical experts.&#8221;- Oxford Languages.</p><p>The term was coined by William Henry Smyth in 1919, but it gained significant traction through the works of Thorstein Veblen and the efforts of Howard Scott, who founded the Technical Alliance in 1919 and later Technocracy Incorporated in the 1930s. Advocates of a technocracy believe a selected and unelected group of &#8220;experts&#8221; should be the ones in control of society. They would track and manage all the resources and dictate how they should be used, this includes humans. This unelected government would implement advanced technology to rule over the public. Technocracy can be an extreme form of socialism, communism or fascism which are all forms of totalitarianism where freedom, individual rights, free markets, property rights, or concepts such as natural law are limited or completely nonexistent and the power of the state is above all.</p><p>Many times in the past people have tried to implement a technocracy but have been unsuccessful. Some could even argue that Nazi Germany or Communist Russia were some of the first attempts at this.</p><p>The Technocracy Incorporated group was founded by Howard Scott and Marion King in 1932. The group proposed ideas such as eliminating money and replacing it with energy certificates, as well as suggesting all the resources be managed by a group of unelected &#8220;experts&#8221;. This is very similar to what groups like the WEF want to do now with carbon or social credit scores. They also want to create a society controlled by people they refer to as &#8220;stakeholders&#8221; who are essentially the ultra wealthy or influential. China in my opinion has been able to implement a form of technocracy and is probably the first successful society to do so. I believe China is being set up as the blueprint for the world, so if you want a glimpse into the future that the people in charge want for us, look no further than there.</p><p>There are two main reasons why technocracies have failed in the past. One being that societies, especially western countries, have been well educated and were instilled with ideologies of freedom, individual rights, free markets, free speech, and property rights which are all concepts of natural law. Unfortunately, in recent times this education has been under attack and these ideas of freedom have been replaced with ideologies such as socialism/communism paving the way for people to accept a technocratic society. The second main reason technocracy has failed in the past is because the technology to implement such a system did not exist, was not readily available or was kept hidden from the public.</p><p>The attack on the education system dumbing down so called &#8220;educated&#8221; people has been happening for decades, I would say it is close to being complete. Ideas such as moral relativism, postmodernism, critical race theory, gender ideology, feminism, hate speech, climate change, mass immigration, and socialism/communism have paved the way for people to accept a totalitarian society and the coming technocracy. It has also demoralized people into hating themselves or just to live for the moment and not care about the future. This is especially true for people who are Caucasian because it was predominantly white European or Western societies that have propagated the ideas of freedom across the world so this is why they are the ones targeted most heavily with these tactics of demoralization. A great example of the freedom Western/European societies have brought to the world is the abolishing of slavery from modern day society. In spite of this Western/European societies get blamed for slavery, something every culture has participated in and some still continue to this very day. The current education system puts people into a slave mindset and this is crucial in getting society to accept a technocracy; this is being done through propaganda being infused into the education system poisoning the minds of the youth.</p><p>The technology that will be instrumental in the creation of a technocracy has only just recently been developed at the scale needed for this system of enslavement. Smartphones are very important to this system as it allows propaganda to be streamed 24/7 into the minds of the public. It also allows for people to be tracked and monitored on a level never possible before. It makes it easy for the state to communicate to everyone at once or even individually and create things like a digital ID or vaccine passport system as we saw during the pandemic. In the future it can allow the state to create a social credit or carbon credit score, like seen in China. The creation of AI is very crucial in tracking and managing all this information and can even be used for censorship as well. AI is also important in the development of robotics and drones that can be used for surveillance and enforcement purposes. The internet is the infrastructure that all these components need to operate. The creation of technology like telecommunication networks or most recently starlink are covering the globe with internet access so there won't be anywhere these systems can't operate. I refer to all these systems as the AI surveillance grid. AI and robotics systems will also play a role in replacing workers in jobs whether It's in manufacturing, technology, arts, healthcare, legal, administration, government, or even politics. AI will be used to track and manage all the resources including humans. It can eventually even be used to implement news rules and restrictions based on ever changing algorithms. This will create a dystopian society with draconian rules that can change at a moment's notice.</p><p>At the forefront of these technologies are people like Elon Musk and others like Peter Theil. I believe their role is to build out the infrastructure for the coming technocracy. Elon's involvement in companies such as Open AI, starlink, X with Grok, Tesla with their robotics and car technologies are all important parts of the technocratic infrastructure. His grandparents would be proud of everything he has been able to accomplish in setting up the technocracy they wanted so badly. I also believe Trump&#8217;s role will be to help people like Musk and Theil in implementing these technologies into government. This is why Trump Is putting Elon in charge of D.O.G.E to clean up waste in the government that has become too big and bloated. Elon will probably get rid of many useless government employees and replace many of them with these new AI systems of control. Trump&#8217;s vice President JD Vance has close ties with Peter Theil who owns Palantir, an AI data collection and surveillance company. Palantir has already been working with the US government, military, and CIA in implementing these AI surveillance technologies for many years and I'm sure this will only increase under Trump.</p><p>So with the combination of the dumbing down of society and advancements in technology we are entering a time unlike anything in the past. The secret societies who are in control of most of the world that base their beliefs in satanism which is ultimately a lust for power and control now have built out the systems necessary for total domination. They have been planning this for centuries if not longer and have stayed mostly hidden behind the scenes using others as pawns to create the technologies necessary for everyone's enslavement. The coming worldwide system of technocracy powered by the AI surveillance grid will be their crowning achievement.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=222949310&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=222949310"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><h3>Depopulation</h3><p>The depopulation of the planet has been long planned and is already underway. Groups like the Club of Rome, Bilderberg, WEF, Trilateral Commission, United Nations, European Union along with many others have long discussed the &#8220;problem&#8221; of overpopulation. This myth of overpopulation has long been a tool of fear used by those in power to gain further control and manipulate the public. In reality the earth is far from being overpopulated and the only reason it seems that there is not enough resources is because those in power hoard them to themselves. Not only that but they intentionally mismanage these resources to maintain power and control. A perfect example of this is the mismanagement of the food supply or the intentional destruction of it to cause famine and death, or just to keep prices high to make people poor. Another great example of this is the manipulation of financial instruments to cause inflation and get people in excessive amounts of debt. Now that the evil people in power feel as if they have reached a point technologically and can finally implement their technocracy powered by AI and robotics, they don't have the need for so many people. This is why they will continue to accelerate their depopulation plan.</p><p>The plan for depopulation has many aspects to it. The use of war, famine, disease, contraceptives and abortion, poison food and pharmaceuticals are all favorite tactics of those in power. Lesser known tactics such as geoengineering or frequency based weapons can also be used. No matter the tactic, the objective is the same: increase the death rate and lower the birth rate. They have been using these tactics on the public for decades but in recent times it has really been ramped up. The targeting of children with poison vaccines gets worse every year because of this, so does the rates of SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome) and chronic disease in the young. If they can't kill the kids they want them sick and complacent for the rest of their lives. The escalation of war around the world is resulting in many more deaths. Wars like in Ukraine or Gaza are great tactics for depopulation as well as causing division of the masses. This also plays into the divide and conquer strategy perfectly. The attacks on farmers and food are getting much worse, whether it's the increase in taxes, stealing of land, or just outright destruction of supply. It has been getting harder for farmers every year. The chemicals, additives and over processing of food keeps people unhealthy and shortens most people's lives as well. The education system is another vector of attack, encouraging the youth to not have kids and offering easy access to contraceptives and abortion. Who really knows the effects that all the cell towers, wifi, and cell phones are having on the population, I&#8217;m sure if we knew it would be quite frightening.  All these methods are intentional and are designed to achieve the goal of depopulation. When combined together they are quite effective.</p><p>The most obvious escalation of the depopulation agenda was the pandemic. The use of lockdowns, deadly protocols in the hospitals, and later poison gene therapy &#8220;vaccines&#8221; have most likely done the most damage yet. Mandates and lockdowns have set a precedent for governments to do this again in the future paving the way for even more death to come. We still haven't even seen the full effects of what will happen to people who have taken the covid injection. People continue to die everyday and it has seemingly had a negative effect on fertility as well. Who knows what could happen over the long term. On top of all this, no one really knows what covid-19 actually was and if it was even a virus at all or what it was really meant to do, other than instill fear and allow for a totalitarian shift in society.</p><p>One of the most prominent pushers of the overpopulation narrative is none other than Bill Gates. He has seemingly either been appointed or appointed himself in overseeing the depopulation agenda. His obsession with vaccinating the world and giving access to contraceptives and abortions is clearly in line with the depopulation plan. He even likes to joke about it in his speeches where he has said &#8220;one of these numbers will have to get pretty close to 0&#8221; in reference to an equation about population and carbon emissions to meet net zero targets. He has even spoken openly about &#8220;flattening the curve of the population&#8221; in a video he made about overpopulation. Another agenda he likes to push is the fake climate change narrative. This narrative is anti-human at its core and is all about teaching people that humans are bad for the planet. Nothing could be further from the Truth, humans are stewards of the earth and are the natural caretakers a needed and necessary part of life. Even though we haven't been living fully up to our roll because we have lost our way and allowed evil people like Bill Gates along with others run the show. The fake climate change narrative is a perfect narrative for those in control to subjugate the masses. It's the perfect excuse for climate lockdowns, carbon credits, and 15 minute prison cities. Most of the people who believe this end up hating themselves, thinking that they are killing the planet. Bill Gates and many others are working hard to get the public to accept these lies, what better way to get a population to accept their own depopulation.</p><p>With all the fear mongering about overpopulation the reality Is that countries all over the world actually have a declining birthrate. This is the worst in western countries with mainly Caucasian populations. Western cultures have been targeted with the educational system teaching the youth not to have kids. This combined with poisoned food and pharmaceuticals making many people infertile. The constant increase in the cost of living through money printing and mass immigration also makes people avoid having children. Mass immigration also masks the decline in birthrates and changes the culture in society, usually for the worse.</p><p>The perpetrators of this depopulation agenda don't like to keep it a secret and openly discuss or mock the public with their plans. Bill Gates constantly makes remarks about it. Prince Philip said he would like to reincarnate as a deadly virus to solve overpopulation. Ph.D. Dennis Meadows, Club of Rome member, has said that he hopes that depopulation can be done peacefully and equally and wants the population to be only 1 billion. Ted Turner is another billionaire who has been very open about wanting there to be less people. Even monuments have been made like the Georgia guidestones with the first rule engraved on it is to keep the population at only 500 million. There are so many people in positions of power and influence who speak openly about wanting depopulation, I would struggle listing them all here.</p><p>The mass genocide of most people on the planet has been planned by the satanic secret societies who control the world for a long time. Now with the last pieces of the puzzle being put into place they are getting ready to finally achieve their goals.</p><h3>Transhumanism</h3><p>The transhumanist future is almost upon us, or maybe it has already just begun. One could say we are already becoming like cyborgs with just how integrated we have become with our smartphones and wearables. With the ability to access information almost anywhere and communicate with almost anyone at any time. Biometrics like heart rate, skin temperature, blood oxygen, steps, and sleep can all be effortlessly tracked with a wearable smart device. It really does seem like we are already living in a sci-fi movie. This is only just the beginning of the merger between man and machine for better or for worse. With developments like Elon Musk's brainchip company Neurolink or with things like Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse, the lines between what makes us human and what is reality is starting to get blurred. We are told that these technologies will be for the benefit of humanity but I think it could just as easily be used for the enslavement or end of humanity as we know it.</p><p>Neurolink has already been put into the first human. In its most rudimentary form it currently has the ability to connect one's mind to a computer and give the user complete control over it with just their thoughts. In the future Elon has made claims that it could cure blindness, hearing loss and give disabled people back the ability to move their arms or legs, along with many other possibilities. This technology would seem to be a marvel but what could be the potential downside? The possibility of adverse health effects is always there with any medical intervention but what makes this even more insidious is the fact it opens up your mind to potentially be hacked or controlled. With the ability to control computers with your mind or restore your vision, hearing or ability to move, in theory you could upload information to the users mind or even control what they see, hear or feel. This would give nefarious actors the ability to take over people's bodies and minds. Just think how a tyrannical government or terrorist organization would use this kind of technology, if given access to it. I personally think this has long been a goal of the evil people in control, to develop this kind of technology to end up having complete control over the masses, turning them into programmable robots and in the process removing free will from humanity.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=222949310&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=222949310"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><p>Neurolink is just one of many developments in transhuman technologies. There are patents out there to tie crypto currencies to people's bodies and use someone's activities or thoughts to mine crypto. Instead of using computers as the nodes for the cryptos infrastructure it would use the bodies and minds of humans instead. This would give monetary rewards, in the form of crypto currency, to people who complete certain tasks that have been predetermined for them. What would those tasks be or who would be in control of this system? Imagine having your vaccine status, social media posts, or even your thoughts tied into such a system. This sounds like something out of a dystopian horror movie. The development of nanotechnology could make tech like Neurolink look like child's play. Some people theorize that things like neurolink could be accomplished with an injection or even something that could be sprayed in the air. There are already patents for technologies to accomplish such things. This could allow for the mass deployment of transhumanist technologies even on to people who would have otherwise refused it. Some people have speculated that these technologies already exist and are being implemented now.</p><p>Currently we have the IOT (internet of things) which refers to the network of smart devices in the world. This could be anything from your smartphone, smartwatch, oven, fridge, car, etc that connect to the internet. All these devices have the capability of being tracked and monitored and could one day be used to give you a social or carbon credit score. The next step in this is called IOB (internet of bodies) which refers to a network of human bodies and/or minds being monitored and tracked. Using these transhumanist technologies that are currently being developed, along with AI the goal is to make a network that tracks people's biometrics, location, activities and eventually thoughts. This is all in the hope of not just monitoring people but controlling how they act and what they think.</p><p>Companies are currently creating artificial womb technology for the purposes of helping people who can't have children do so. In the future if they continue to depopulate the planet and destroy fertility artificial wombs may become the common way of birth. This would provide people with the opportunity to genetically alter children and integrate transhuman tech from birth. Even people who are not born in these artificial womb facilities could be offered the chance to genetically alter themselves through technology like CRISPR. This could be promoted as a good idea and sold to the public as making them better than they currently are. The people in power could use this technology to create a slave race of programmable humans. I believe this could be the long term goal to depopulate the earth with normal humans and repopulate the earth with genetically altered programmable transhumanism slaves made in artificial womb facilities.</p><p>People like Noah Harri of the WEF have openly stated how they believe free will and right and wrong are just an illusion. He has even said with the technology we have now humans have become hackable animals that could be programmed. This ideology of moral relativism and not believing in free will is satanic in nature and is a core belief of the satanic secret societies that run most of the world. This is why they are creating these transhumanist technologies with the goal of eventually destroying the free will that was bestowed upon us all from the creator. They hate free will, freedom, individual rights, property rights and natural law and everything they do is to destroy these fundamental properties of the universe.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>The world is run by psychotic people who are a part of satanic secret societies and they only care about themselves. They are willing to do anything to gain more power and control. They have been working behind the scenes for many centuries to get to the point we are at now, using people as pawns to create technologies for their own death or enslavement. The people in these secret societies have the ultimate goal of becoming like gods in control of everything. Unfortunately for them they will never achieve this.</p><p>Society needs to wake up and accept the uncomfortable truths that most people don't want to face. We must unite together and demand accountability and justice from those in power who are trying to kill and enslave us. Then society needs to be based on a foundation of freedom, individual rights, free markets, property rights and natural law. We need to cherish humanity and have love and respect for one another and try to help those around us, to create a society that benefits all and not just a few at the very top.</p><p>If not we might just end up dead or worse living in a technocratic transhumanist hell powered by an AI surveillance grid.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

challenge even for an experienced gardener, but it&#8217;s also a great opportunity to be creative and have fun.</p><p>From deciding what to grow (an urban vegetable garden? a tropical paradise?) to choosing imaginative containers (such as an old watering can or wood crate), the entire process can be an adventure. Yes, you still must adhere to the strict confines of your space, but there are many tricks for making every square inch count. Here are some tips to help you get started:</p><h3><strong>Maximize Your Space:</strong></h3><p><strong>How much space do you need for a balcony garden?</strong> Surprisingly, not much at all if you take advantage of walls, railings, and overhead structures.</p><p><strong>Turn your balcony into a vertical garden.</strong> Attach pots, shelves, or trellises to the walls; and if your balcony has a ceiling, add a few hooks for hanging plants. Cover the railings of your balcony with chicken wire to support climbing plants, or purchase plant hangers that can be attached to the top of a railing.<br><br><strong>Think of your balcony garden as an extension of your indoor living space.</strong> If you choose plant colors and textures that echo the interior design, even the smallest balcony will look more expansive and welcoming.<br><br><strong>KNOW YOUR RESTRICTIONS</strong></p><p>In addition to the square footage of your balcony, there may be other restrictions that will limit what you can plant and where. If you live in an apartment building or condo, be sure to check what&#8217;s permissible by the building owner before you begin.</p><p><strong>Weight.</strong> There may be weight restrictions and rules regarding what you can hang from balcony railings and walls. If the balcony is attached to your home, know how much weight it can safely support. The weight from large ceramic containers and wet soil can add up quickly.</p><p><strong>Microclimate.</strong> The amount of sunlight the space receives is the most critical factor to consider, but wind exposure and temperature are important too.</p><ul><li><p><strong>Wind:</strong> Strong winds, which are common on balcony and rooftop gardens high above the ground, can quickly dry out the soil, rip the petals off flowers, and knock over tall potted plants.</p></li><li><p><strong>Heat:</strong> Sun reflecting from windows can intensify the heat of a balcony garden and burn delicate foliage. Even the basic construction of your balcony (such as concrete vs. wood) will affect how much heat it retains.</p></li><li><p><strong>Shade:</strong> Many urban balconies receive quite a bit of shade if surrounded by tall buildings or covered by an overhang. Often you can work around this problem by putting sun-loving plants near the perimeter of the balcony, where the sun is more prevalent.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/p/how-to-create-the-perfect-balcony?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/p/how-to-create-the-perfect-balcony?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share"><span>Share</span></a></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p></li></ul><h3><strong>HOW DO YOU WATER A BALCONY GARDEN?</strong></h3><p>Few balcony or rooftop gardens have access to an outside water source, which means you&#8217;ll have to rely on water from a sink or bathtub to keep your plants well-hydrated. To minimize your trips back and forth lugging heavy jugs of water, try some of these strategies for watering your plants:</p><ul><li><p>If you have lots of plants to water, consider investing in a large, lightweight watering can that you can fill in the bathtub. Collapsible watering cans are great space savers for balcony gardens because they flatten when not in use.</p></li><li><p>Put saucers or trays under your plants to collect any water overflow so you don&#8217;t waste a drop. Self-watering pots, such as AquaPots, can also help conserve water and significantly decrease watering frequency.</p></li><li><p>Eliminate watering cans altogether by purchasing a lightweight, expandable garden hose that you can attach to a kitchen sink using an adapter. They come in lengths as long as 100 feet and retract when not in use for easy storage.</p></li></ul><p>Keep in mind that the hotter and windier the conditions on your balcony, the more frequently you&#8217;ll need to water -- sometimes as often as twice a day. If a convenient water source is far from reach, make life easier by growing plants with low water requirements, such as cacti and succulents.<br></p><h3><strong>WHAT CAN YOU GROW IN A BALCONY

The style can range from fancy to frivolous, depending on your tastes, but the container should be practical and suit the purpose. Some factors to consider include container weight, durability, weather resistance, ease of watering, and cost.</p><ul><li><p>Plastic and fiberglass plant containers are ideal for balcony gardens because they&#8217;re lighter in weight than terracotta or ceramic pots and come in a vast array of styles and sizes. However, on windy balconies, they can be blown over easily unless they&#8217;re secured in place.</p></li><li><p>Fabric grow bags are another lightweight container option, with the added advantage of being easy to store after the growing season is over. They also have handles for more convenient portability.</p></li><li><p>Hanging baskets and outdoor railing baskets are real space savers and can be used to grow everything from herbs to houseplants to trailing vegetables.</p></li><li><p>Tiered planters are another space-saving solution that allow you to use vertical space for your garden rather than taking up precious space on your balcony floor.<br></p></li></ul><h3><strong>BALCONY GARDEN IDEAS<br></strong></h3><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eMR4!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb18137d8-401c-4e0b-bbfb-ad371b33363f_650x490.jpeg" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eMR4!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb18137d8-401c-4e0b-bbfb-ad371b33363f_650x490.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eMR4!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb18137d8-401c-4e0b-bbfb-ad371b33363f_650x490.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eMR4!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb18137d8-401c-4e0b-bbfb-ad371b33363f_650x490.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eMR4!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb18137d8-401c-4e0b-bbfb-ad371b33363f_650x490.jpeg 1456w" sizes="auto, 100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!eMR4!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb18137d8-401c-4e0b-bbfb-ad371b33363f_650x490.jpeg" width="650" height="490" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b18137d8-401c-4e0b-bbfb-ad371b33363f_650x490.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:490,&quot;width&quot;:650,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Herbs Growing On Balcony\nShutterstock.com\nNew York, NY&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:null,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="Herbs Growing On Balcony

They do not need to make a profit! It&#8217;s all controlled by the 13 bloodlines and their unimaginable wealth, their secret societies, their banks and multi-billion industries. They have access to whatever they want and need. And they want to be Gods, to control everything that happens in this world, to write &#8220;our&#8221; history in their name and image.</p><p>So, if you ever are to begin to understand this world, you need to understand that they do not play by their own rules. They do not need to make profit, or any money at all from what they are doing to control the narrative, to shape our reality.</p><p>Now, as for the media, there are a few simple things you need to realize regarding the media and the &#8216;news&#8217;. They are there to control you. To tell you how and what to think, how you perceive reality and what you think is real, and to keep you in that prison within your mind without you even knowing it.</p><ul><li><p>The ruling elite families has been using astrology since the times of the Babylonian and Egyptian civilization to plan events and to keep people in a social engineering staged &#8216;reality-script&#8217;. Today, this is done through the Jesuit-controlled media and education system.<br></p></li><li><p>All major stories are fabricated and coded using Gematria, i.e., combining letters, words, and their numeric value, synced with the dates and the message. This practice is ancient and goes back to the first languages of man. It&#8217;s ritualistic, it&#8217;s how they play Gods and shape our world and reality.<br></p></li><li><p>All breaking, or &#8216;viral&#8217; stories, are controlled, scripted and serves a purpose. Nothing goes &#8216;viral&#8217; unless them let it. This is true for any platform. It&#8217;s all controlled. So, always ask yourself, &#8220;why is this story getting exposure?&#8221; The answer is usually hidden several steps down the road in their game of chess, and that is why some of us try and decode their messages.<br></p></li><li><p>Photos, images, video clips, snippets, or whatever do not get accidentally leaked or &#8220;exposed&#8221; unless they want them to. Joe Biden stumbling and falling down a few steps of stairs is not a funny &#8220;catch&#8221;. It&#8217;s fabricated and serves a purpose &#8211; same with fake documents indicating bioweapons from a lab in Wuhan. All fake, all distractions to keep the semi-woke on different paths leading nowhere.<br></p></li><li><p>If a &#8220;celebrity&#8221;, &#8220;politician&#8221;, or any kind of &#8220;influencer&#8221; is presented in a special way, that is exactly how they want him/her presented. They are all actors; they all serve a purpose.<br></p></li><li><p>To keep people from questioning, verifying, and researching the news stories, the media push out an incredible amount of news and updates every day. It&#8217;s like a non-stop 48-hours of news per 24-hour news cycle, and this is by design, as it keeps media consumers from verifying anything. This is also another reason why most stories are simply fabricated, made up by ghost writers in writing farms (as we will get to in minute.)</p></li></ul><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;c0015e0f-5c96-4b8c-9d8e-9d28fddacfc8&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;What this article covered (Key highlights)&quot;,&quot;cta&quot;:null,&quot;showBylines&quot;:true,&quot;showDescription&quot;:true,&quot;showImage&quot;:true,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;md&quot;,&quot;isEditorNode&quot;:true,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Truths That Hurt: If You Vote, You Are Just Another Sheep in the World Stage Slave Theater&quot;,&quot;publishedBylines&quot;:[{&quot;id&quot;:96788321,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;bio&quot;:&quot;Empowering you to question, learn, and take control | Email: (revealedeye@gmail.com)&quot;,&quot;photo_url&quot;:&quot;https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4ca260d4-8699-4037-a80e-838f224f9b5e_640x640.jpeg&quot;,&quot;is_guest&quot;:false,&quot;bestseller_tier&quot;:100}],&quot;post_date&quot;:&quot;2026-10-19T19:00:55.602Z&quot;,&quot;cover_image&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/a9fb0633-262f-43b4-9fa7-4ae7e286848a_2752x1536.jpeg&quot;,&quot;cover_image_alt&quot;:null,&quot;canonical_url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/p/truths-that-hurt-if-you-vote-you-are-just-another-sheep-in-the-world-stage-slave-theater&quot;,&quot;section_name&quot;:&quot;Exposed&quot;,&quot;video_upload_id&quot;:null,&quot;id&quot;:221130766,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;newsletter&quot;,&quot;reaction_count&quot;:42,&quot;comment_count&quot;:0,&quot;publication_id&quot;:941403,&quot;publication_name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;publication_logo_url&quot;:&quot;https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xq8z!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4c0731e9-c4c8-4eb4-bd8a-c0ce61e96bb2_640x640.png&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:false,&quot;youtube_url&quot;:null,&quot;show_links&quot;:null,&quot;feed_url&quot;:null}"></div><p>All this is controlled by &#8220;The System&#8221; and its parts. The &#8220;system&#8221; is not defined as a group, or a thing/entity. It&#8217;s ingrained everywhere by design going back hundreds of years. You can define it by these bullet points.</p><ul><li><p>The indoctrination school system. No matter the &#8216;education&#8217; you chose or receive, you are dumbed down to learn and repeat &#8216;facts&#8217; &#8211; their facts. The little you&#8217;ll learn is miniscule to their knowledge. You only learn what is needed to be a good slave to the system. You are taught to think in a certain way (inside their box), not to question and not to be creative. This is especially true for media and journalists. The brainwashing about what to think and how to re-shape the truth to fit the narrative is very real, very strong. This is how the system can control even the smaller news outlets who reports on more &#8220;local&#8221; events. And remember, people are easily tricked and fooled into following the herd, afraid of any kind of responsibility or accountability. The, &#8220;I do as they do, they can&#8217;t all be wrong&#8221; mentality is very real.<br></p></li><li><p>Think Tank and Writing farms. The Jesuit educated &#8216;monks&#8217; and Freemasons who are the &#8216;think tank&#8217; of the parasites running the world. These are the ones fabricating all the lies and stories, matching them with dates and gematria using powerful software and AI writing farms. Making their rituals come true, shaping our reality. And pushing it all out through the major media outlets that they all own and control.<br>They are writing the script for this reality show we call &#8216;real life&#8217;.<br></p></li><li><p>Editors, editorial staff and firms. These are the ones making sure that the articles/stories are coded correctly when &#8216;common&#8217; journalists have had their hand in it; that they follow the plan and the current agenda. And when actual real news happens, these are the people who make sure it gets reported in a way that follow their agenda, their narrative. This also goes back to the school system, as journalists are trained to think and report in a certain way.<br></p></li><li><p>Paid Shills, Fact Checkers, Government and Military employees. These are everywhere, acting like regular folks with fake identities, trying to influence people to follow the agenda while attacking, humiliating and mocking those who are awake and against it.<br></p></li><li><p>Controlled Opposition/Gatekeepers and Disinformation Agents. Actors that seem to be on the side of the people, of humanity, and share a lot of truths and things that most of us have figured out anyway. They are there to keep those waking up in line, to keep them focusing on things that are fabricated and does not matter. To string them along. They can be hard to identify at times, but most of them avoid the really important questions and truths, such as that a virus has never been isolated or proven to be a contagion. Or that the whole medical establishment and &#8220;modern medicine&#8221; is based on lies and deceit.<br></p></li><li><p>Artificial Intelligence, AI, the bots of social media, search engines, fake AI-controlled blogs and news sites, and so on.

And this is only scratching the surface. It goes deeper, much deeper. And remember, they didn&#8217;t start faking the news when you started paying attention &#8212; that the news is nothing more than a fake reality TV show govern by agendas. They have been doing this since the very beginning, hence they are very good at it.</p><p>Still, it&#8217;s important to understand and to really see this reality for what it is. How everything is controlled and that almost everything you are presented with is fake &#8211; fabricated. The best way to avoid being trapped in their stories and narratives is to understand the motive behind the stories. First we need to ask &#8220;what happened&#8221; instead of &#8220;who did it,&#8221; because the &#8216;it&#8217; has not been established as a factual event. Actually, the most important question is asking, &#8220;did it happen at all?&#8221; To assume or believe the premise established by the initial media reports of any event is to build on a foundation of hearsay. In a &#8216;mass shooting,&#8217; many &#8220;truthers&#8221; will chase the reason behind it such as &#8220;MK Ultra Assassins&#8221; and &#8220;patsies,&#8221; never realizing that these alternative explanations put out by controlled opposition in &#8220;alternative media&#8221; are there to protect the mainstream medias version&#8217;s central premise that &#8220;IT&#8221; happened. That is the whole motive, to present these events as real and have people argue about the reasons or who did it instead of asking the critical question of, &#8220;did it happen at all?&#8221; The MSM and the alt-media are actually on the same page when they debate &#8220;false flag&#8221; vs the reported story, that is, they present the event as it happened for real.</p><p>Learn to see through it.

It is a carefully managed sheep herding operation. The parties act as different shepherds. Each one walks the flock along a slightly different path across the same pasture. One shepherd shouts about more welfare and open borders. Another shouts about tighter borders and lower taxes. One wears green. One wears blue. One even pretends to hate the whole system while still feeding greedily from its trough. At the end of the day every single shepherd delivers the flock to the same barn. From there the path leads to the same slaughterhouse.</p><p>The elite families who own the pasture decided that final destination centuries ago. The shepherds are only paid employees. Their job is to keep the sheep moving and keep them calm. The sheep get to choose which color flag they walk under while they are being led. That is the entire game. That is the full extent of the choice on offer.</p><p>When you vote you do not choose a future. You only choose which costume the next batch of middle managers will wear. Those managers then carry out the plan that was already written long before any of them took the stage. The plan does not change with the color of the flag. The pasture stays the same. The barn stays the same. The end point stays the same. Only the path of the herding to the predetermined destination changes.</p><p>This setup works because it gives people the feeling of control. People argue over the path. They argue over the slogans. They argue over which shepherd looks more honest this year. All the while the direction never shifts. The flock stays busy. The flock stays divided. And the owners of the pasture keep moving everyone exactly where they always intended.</p><h3><strong>The Power Pyramid: Who Actually Owns the Stage</strong></h3><p>Picture the world as one giant company. At the top sit a handful of owners who never show their faces. Below them are layers of managers, sales teams, and workers. The owners set the plan. Everyone else just carries it out. That is the real power structure.</p><p>At the very top sit ancient bloodlines that stretch back through the Roman Empire and further into Babylon. These are the old Italian and Spanish families, the Black Nobility, the papal bloodlines. They do not need to appear on television. They do not need your vote. They do not even need most people to know they exist. They own the investment houses that own almost everything else. Vanguard and BlackRock sit as the public face of their wealth. These two firms hold major stakes in the corporations that feed you, medicate you, entertain you, and house you. Nestl&#233;, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, Procter and Gamble, Johnson and Johnson, Disney, and the rest all answer upward through these same investment structures. The food on your table, the pills in your cabinet, the shows and news on your screen, and the roof over your head all sit under the same ownership web.</p><p>Directly under these families operates the Jesuit Order and its Superior General, the so-called Black Pope. This is the day to day command center. The Jesuits created and absorbed the Illuminati project in the eighteenth century. They run the schools that train the next generation of managers. They place their initiates into every key institution. World leaders have long been required to swear quiet allegiance in closed rituals. The Black Pope does not need a public title. He simply makes sure the orders from the top families move downward without friction.</p><p>Beneath that layer sits the Committee of 300 and its think tanks. The Club of Rome, the Tavistock Institute, and the military and intelligence complexes all feed into this group. These people design the long term plans. Agenda 2030, the Great Reset, the digital identity grid, the social credit systems, the one world currency. None of these ideas were invented by the politicians you argue about online. They were drafted in closed rooms decades ago and then handed down for action. The Committee of 300 turns the owners&#8217; vision into step by step programs that governments and companies later pretend to invent on their own.</p><p>Next come the public facing organizations. The United Nations, the World Economic Forum, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, and the Bilderberg Group. These are the sales departments. Their job is to package the agenda in soft language about sustainability, equity, and security. They hold conferences, publish reports, and smile for the cameras so that lower managers and the public will accept the plan without resistance. The real work happens in the rooms you never see.</p><p>Then we reach the secret brotherhoods that run the day to day machinery. Freemasonry is the main recruitment and control network inside governments, police forces, militaries, courts, hospitals, and major corporations. You do not rise to real power in any of those places unless you belong. Knights of Malta protect the Vatican interests. Other orders handle specialized tasks. Together they stage the fake events that fill the mainstream media, control the stories people hear, and keep the lower ranks obedient. A man in a police uniform or a hospital coat may believe he serves the public. In truth he serves the chain of command that ends at the top of the pyramid.</p><p>Only after all of that do we arrive at the political parties. Most of the high level politicians are initiates or puppets, usually within Freemasonry. The lower level ones often genuinely believe they are doing good work. They are still unwittingly actors reading a script written higher up. Everything they &#8220;decide&#8221; has already been decided. The left right show exists only to keep the population emotionally hooked and split. People fight over the color of the flag while the real owners keep the same plan moving forward year after year.</p><p>That is the pyramid. The owners at the top never change. The managers in the middle never change the plan. The actors at the bottom change costumes and slogans so the public stays busy arguing. Once you see the layers, the election noise starts to sound very different.</p><h3><strong>Secret Societies and the Invisible Hand That Moves Every Piece</strong></h3>

It can only move forwards-backwards and left-right (length and width). In its brain, there is no concept of height or up-down. Now, if you (a 3D human) place a finger on that paper, to the 2D ant it would seem as if an object has magically appeared out of thin air! If you fold the paper down the middle, the ant would feel like its entire world has contracted in a single second.</p><p>The most terrifying point here is that the 2D creature cannot even imagine what height is, yet it is completely captive to and dependent on it. The 3D dimension is controlling its fate, but it can never process this reality with its brain.</p><p>We humans are exactly like that ant on the paper! We have length, width, and height. But our world is being controlled from the outside by another invisible dimension called time (4D). We cannot see time, but we are completely captive to it.</p><p>The damage to our cells, our hair turning gray, our aging, and death&#8212;these are nothing more than the physical effects of this fourth dimension (time). We are stuck in the trap of time just as that ant is stuck on the paper.</p><p>Now the question is, just as we can manipulate height at will, why can&#8217;t we turn time backward? Why do we only move toward the future? In the language of physics, the reason for this is the Arrow of Time, or entropy.</p><p>The second law of thermodynamics states that the disorder or entropy of the universe always increases. If you drop a glass from your hand, it will shatter into pieces. But even if you wait for a thousand years, those broken pieces will not spontaneously join back together to form a whole glass.</p><p>This continuous rush toward the breakdown or decay of the physical world is what time is. With our 3D bodies, we are merely sliding forward along this road of spacetime like passengers on a one-way train. We have no reverse gear.</p><p>Now, how do 4D entities perceive time? This is where the darkest paradox of quantum reality comes in. We 3D humans experience time like a movie. Frame after frame, or scene after scene, appears before our eyes, and we can only see the present frame.</p><p>But the Block Universe theory of modern physics states that there is no such thing as a separate past, present, and future. Everything exists simultaneously inside one massive block! To a 4D or higher-dimensional entity, the entirety of spacetime is like a movie reel or a DVD disk. To them, the years 1920, 2024, and 2050 are all like a physical road laid out right before their eyes. Just as we walk from one side of a room to the other, they can simply walk from the past into the future.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=220582164&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;button-wrapper&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary button-wrapper" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=220582164"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><p>Just as we can hold a wire or a string in our hands and bend it at will, higher-dimensional entities can physically bend the string called time in the exact same way.</p><p>Seen through the eyes of a 4D entity, a human would not look like a 3D body. They would look like a long string or a &#8220;time worm,&#8221; with a fetus in the mother&#8217;s womb at one end, and a corpse lying in a grave at the other! The entire thing is visible in a single frame! Read that line one more time!</p><p>Anyway, we think time moves at the same speed everywhere in the universe. Einstein came and shattered this illusion. He proved that time is a stretchable fabric, much like a rubber band. The stronger the gravitational force in a place, the slower time passes there.</p><p>If you go near a black hole, time will slow down for you so much that spending just 1 hour there might mean 10 years have passed on Earth! You have literally time-traveled into the future. Time is not an absolute truth or a fixed entity; it is an illusion playing with gravity and speed.</p><p>Time travel is not science fiction. It is the code of this cosmic matrix that causes our brains to short-circuit simply because we cannot comprehend it. Time is not the ticking of a clock; it is the cage whose key lies solely in the hands of the ultimate programmer beyond the fourth dimension!</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

The townspeople knew him as a harmless man who wore old flannel shirts and was skilled at chopping wood. He had once worked at a petrol pump, and in his later years, as a janitor and maintenance worker at a JCPenney store. What was revealed after his death left the entire town stunned. His lawyer said that looking at him, no one could ever guess the man was a multi-millionaire.

Hearing his story forces us to look back at ourselves. The man who could accumulate so much money never flaunted it. And what do we actually have, we who buy cars on installments just to show off to everyone?</p><p><strong>Who is this Ronald Read?</strong></p><p>Read&#8217;s beginnings were humble. He was born in 1921 and grew up in a poor farming family in Vermont. He was the first person in his family to graduate from high school. After returning from fighting in North Africa, Italy, and the Pacific region during World War II, he settled back in Brattleboro and married a woman who had two children. An author described his career path this way: about 25 years at a petrol pump, and 17 years as a janitor at JCPenney!</p><p>Throughout this life, his salary was never sky-high. Yet no one in town ever knew what this man was quietly building. Until his death, even his friends and family did not know the extent of his wealth.</p><p>Why people display wealth&#8212;economist Thorstein Veblen wrote the answer to this question back in 1899. In his book <em>The Theory of the Leisure Class</em>, he introduced the term &#8220;conspicuous consumption.&#8221; According to his explanation, buying luxury goods is often a way to openly display a buyer&#8217;s income and accumulated wealth capacity. Veblen argued that the utility of the item is not primary here; the goal of this consumption is to earn social status and respect. In other words, the real buyer of a lot of expensive things is not us, but the audience.</p><p>In the age of social media, this audience sits right in our pockets. Every photo, every check-in is a small advertisement. And to fund the cost of those advertisements, many people are borrowing from their futures.</p><p>In 1996, Thomas Stanley and William Danko&#8217;s <em>The Millionaire Next Door</em> shook up conventional ideas about the wealthy. Stanley had been researching the rich since 1973. The main observation of their book was that truly wealthy people mostly do not live in Beverly Hills; they live in the house right next door to you. They divided people into two groups: one group accumulates much more wealth relative to their income, while the other group has a high income but low wealth. Describing the second group, an analysis notes that they live high-status lifestyles and have savings goals, but they don&#8217;t even come close to accumulating as much wealth as their income suggests they should.</p><p>What is the behavior of the first group? They are frugal and do not feel the urge to flaunt their wealth through symbols of status. The book has a simple rule you can use to measure yourself: Multiply your current age by your annual pretax income, then divide by ten. What you get is the wealth you are expected to have based on your age and income. If your actual net worth is less than that, you are likely living on your income rather than your savings. Another practical piece of advice from the book concerning housing: do not buy a house whose mortgage is more than twice your family&#8217;s annual taxable income.</p><p>Since the topic of cars came up, let&#8217;s look at some numbers, because a car is usually the symbol of showy spending. A new car can lose 20 percent or more of its original price in its very first year alone, and on average about 60 percent after five years. The example from another report is simple: a new car bought for 50,000 dollars drops to around 35,000 dollars on average in two years. This does not even factor in the costs of loan interest, insurance, and maintenance.</p><p>However, in all fairness, one thing needs to be said: this loss remains strictly on paper until the car is sold. The problem isn&#8217;t owning a car. The problem is that the cars we buy not for necessity, but for show, sink their entire value into something that gets cheaper every single day&#8212;money that could grow daily if it were invested.</p><p>High income doesn&#8217;t automatically mean wealth, and the most dramatic example of this is professional athletes. NBA star Antoine Walker earned 110 million dollars during his playing career, yet filed for bankruptcy just two years after retiring. In 2009, a <em>Sports Illustrated</em> report noted that within two years of retirement, 78 percent of former NFL players face bankruptcy or severe financial distress.</p><p>However, there is also debate surrounding these statistics, and it is important to point that out. A subsequent study by the National Bureau of Economic Research showed that the bankruptcy rate two years after retirement is 1.9 percent, and 15.7 percent after twelve years. No matter how low the number is, the latter rate is still not insignificant. The explanation given by that study also aligns with our point: athletes have a different earning pattern&#8212;a massive surge for a few years, followed by a drop in income. If you build a lifestyle based on an income that is bound to stop, trouble is inevitable.</p><p>What did Read do? His strategy was surprisingly simple. He bought shares in railroad, utility, banking, healthcare, and consumer goods companies, while avoiding tech companies. According to his lawyer, he only invested in what he understood and what paid dividends. His sources of knowledge were easily accessible: he read the <em>Wall Street Journal</em>, studied stocks at the local library, and discussed investments with his neighbors.</p><p>His greatest strength was patience. At the time of his death, he owned at least 95 stocks, most of which he had held for decades, selling very few. Most importantly, for 55 years, he invested the gap between his income and his ego into dividend-paying stocks and reinvested the dividends. That phrase&#8212;&#8221;the gap&#8221;&#8212;belongs to investment writer Morgan Housel. According to him, savings is the gap between your ego and your income.</p><p>A blogger provided an estimated calculation that illustrates the power of time. In their estimation, investing 350 dollars a month at an 8 percent return for 65 years adds up to nearly 8 million dollars. This isn&#8217;t Read&#8217;s exact calculation, just an illustration. But the message is clear: the result came not from a massive lump sum, but from a long duration and consistency.</p><p>Perhaps many of us now want to paint a picture of miserliness out of Read&#8217;s life, but small snapshots of his life tell a different story. He would gather twigs and branches himself for his home&#8217;s stove and drove a secondhand car. Another source says he used a safety pin to fasten his coat. Moreover, every day he would eat breakfast sitting in the same spot, at the same seat, with a peanut butter-spread English muffin. There might have been less comfort in this life, but there is no room to say there was a lack of contentment. He lived by his own yardstick.</p><p>An analyst expressed a different view regarding the real lesson of this story. According to them, this is not actually a story about blue-chip shares or extreme frugality, but rather a story about a man&#8217;s own internal scorecard who did not care about others&#8217; evaluations. That is something to ponder. Being frugal is not hard; what is hard is staying on your own path when everyone else is watching.</p><p>Simplifying this story and telling you that &#8220;you can do it too&#8221; wouldn&#8217;t be quite right. It would be a distortion of the truth not to mention a few caveats.</p><p>First, Read worked for a long time. Even though it was a low-paying job, he worked for many years, once even retiring and then returning to work. Second, his portfolio was far from ideal. Managing around 95 stocks is difficult; experts typically recommend 10 to 20. Third, the importance of income cannot be denied either. An analysis of a 2019 Federal Reserve survey showed that broadly speaking, higher income increases wealth, and climbing from one income tier to a high wealth tier is very difficult. Therefore, the accurate takeaway is that income is not irrelevant, but having an income alone does not create wealth. How much of that income you are able to keep for yourself and your future is what ultimately matters.</p><div><hr></div><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=219912314&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;button-wrapper&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary button-wrapper" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=219912314"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><p>Another question some people have raised: if Read had given away his money while he was still alive, would he have felt even greater satisfaction? No one knows the answer to that. But the question serves as a reminder that the purpose of saving isn&#8217;t just accumulating. Money is ultimately meant to serve life.</p><p>Respecting money doesn&#8217;t mean depriving yourself. It means asking yourself before every major expense: Will this money work for me in the future, or will it just create an image in the eyes of others? Money that goes into wealth grows over time, while money that goes into praise never returns. Whether income is low or high, the first decision in building wealth is singular: regularly setting aside a portion of your income and leaving it untouched.</p><p>The next time you see someone in a flashy car and expensive clothes and think to yourself that person must be very rich, pause for a moment. They might truly be rich, or they might be living a borrowed life. And if you see a quiet person driving away in an old car wearing old clothes, remember Ronald Read before taking them lightly. The man who spent his life holding a broom left this world as the largest donor in the history of the town&#8217;s library and hospital.</p><p>Wealth is invisible, because wealth is all the things you didn&#8217;t buy. The money used for showing off today is of no use tomorrow. And the money you can quietly put to work today will one day speak on your behalf.</p><p>If Ronald Read&#8217;s life is one side of the mirror, we are on the other. He had no audience. We do, and they live right in the palm of our hand.</p><p>In Veblen&#8217;s time, people displayed wealth through their homes, clothing, and the number of servants they kept. Today, screens do that job. And the consequences of this have been measured in surveys, even though most of those surveys are from America and Canada.</p><p>According to a 2023 Credit Karma survey, 76 percent of Gen Z and 69 percent of Millennials admitted that they fell into debt due to FOMO, or the fear of missing out. Another analysis revealed an even stranger fact: 40 percent of Gen Z regularly take on debt to chase things or experiences seen on social media, and a nearly equal number said that purchases are made partly just to share them on social media. In other words, in many cases, we aren&#8217;t buying things&#8212;we are buying post material.</p><p>There are psychological consequences to this as well. A survey by Allianz found that 61 percent of Millennials reported feeling inadequate by comparing their financial situation to what they see on social media. Yet, as a financial planner reminded us, what people post is merely a highlight reel of their best moments. We suffer from an inferiority complex by comparing someone else&#8217;s best day to our ordinary days, and we borrow to cure that inferiority.</p><p>Travel is now a major stage for this exhibition. A Forbes Advisor survey says that 48 percent of participants went to a destination simply because they saw it on social media. And 42 percent said that seeing similar travels led them to rack up credit card debt or spend more than they had planned. Travel is not a bad thing. The problem begins when destinations are chosen based on picture frames, and the expenses continue as installments for years.</p><p>In our country, the biggest arena for display is arguably weddings. A report by <em>The Financial Express</em> stated that even an ordinary wedding for the urban middle class now rarely costs less than a million, yet family incomes have not kept pace with social expectations. The report pointed to the competition for prestige, social comparison, and the fear of &#8220;what will people say&#8221; as the causes. Social media has accelerated this cycle. Weddings have gradually transformed into public exhibitions of economic capability.</p><p>The wedding industry has also grown around this expectation. The U.S. wedding services and events market is valued at approximately $60 billion to $70 billion annually (with core wedding services estimated around $63.95 billion, and broader total wedding-related consumer spending reaching over $100 billion when factoring in travel, gifts, and apparel). The massive expenses are driven by the social pressure of a &#8220;perfect wedding&#8221; involving gold, decoration, photography, apparel, and event management. In the eyes of society, a wedding is not just the union of two people, but proof of a family&#8217;s standing. Families are driven by the fear that a simple wedding might be seen as a sign of financial weakness.</p><p>In Veblen&#8217;s concept, there was also a behavior that is very familiar to us today. He described &#8220;conspicuous compassion&#8221;&#8212;that is, performative giving with the objective of increasing prestige and social status. In today&#8217;s era, taking pictures, making videos, and tagging donations has become normal for many. Yet Read left his massive donation in complete silence, with no one knowing about it during his lifetime. The difference between giving and display lies right here: the first is for others, and the second is for one&#8217;s own image.</p><p>If we brought Read into today&#8217;s world, what would we see? He probably wouldn&#8217;t appear on any feed at all. No one would give a &#8220;like&#8221; to his old car, flannel shirt, and safety-pinned coat. But at age 92, he left behind savings that changed the history of a town&#8217;s hospital and library.</p><p>Next time you stand before a major expense, ask yourself a simple question: If there were no audience here, if no one ever found out, would I still buy this? If the answer is yes, then this is likely your own need or joy, and you can spend with peace of mind. But if the answer is no, then the real buyer of that money is not you&#8212;it&#8217;s your audience. An audience never pays your future bills.</p><p>Now what I am writing next is worth reading with a special caution. The events included here are not just statistics; they are the grief of individual families. I am not mentioning anyone&#8217;s name or details!</p><p>Weddings, festivals, the urge to uphold social standing&#8212;these expenses often do not come from income. They come from debt. At first, debt feels easy. But the rule of weekly installments is that whether you have money in hand or not, the week will come around again.</p><p>In Read&#8217;s story, we saw that the money you don&#8217;t spend is your true wealth. The trap of installments shows the exact opposite: when you spend money you haven&#8217;t earned yet, the future borrows against you, and that debt must be paid back with interest&#8212;sometimes paid with your dignity, your peace of mind, or your family life.</p><p>Before making any major expense for weddings, festivals, or social status, it is wise to ask yourself three questions:</p><ul><li><p>Is the money for this expense coming from my actual income, or from debt?</p></li><li><p>If my income suddenly drops, how will I manage the installments?</p></li><li><p>Will the people I am spending this money for stand by my side on the day I can no longer pay?</p></li></ul><p>The answer to that third question is often far more honest than the first two.</p><p>And for anyone currently struggling under the weight of debt, the rule is simple: <strong>Do not try to carry it alone.</strong> Speak with someone you trust, open up about the situation to your family, and talk to your lender about restructuring your installments. No matter how heavy the humiliation and pressure feel, there is always a way out, and there are people willing to help you find it.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

Meanwhile, they're tracking our every move through cameras, microphones, and constant grid surveillance. This piece&#8212;originally written by Corey Lynn for The Solari Report&#8212;dives deep into how technology acts as a massive distraction and a vehicle for subtle mind control.

If they could last the full 28 days without being hunted down, they would win $250k. It was interesting to observe how some of the seemingly obvious things to avoid, they were finding very difficult to live without, and how at every turn and every corner they were picked off due to surveillance everywhere.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Now more than ever, it is becoming increasingly important for people to protect themselves from the various methods of mind control being utilized through technology. It is equally important to protect one&#8217;s privacy and preserve their time and energy for living a more fulfilled life. Initially, it will take some time, courage, and support to cut a path toward healthier and safer habits and routines. This is where the Circle comes in and why it is so important. <a href="https://library.solari.com/solari-circles-an-intro-for-financial-permaculture-students/">What is the Circle</a>? It is something that The Solari Report has been prompting people to do for years &#8211; for people to form small groups of twelve or fewer members that meet regularly to provide a financial and educational support system for one another.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Working together in a Circle will provide a supportive system with loyal people who have each other&#8217;s backs, can tackle tasks together, research and coordinate plans, and in this case, some new technology and features that will assist the Circle in moving forward in a safer environment for their home, families, and the Circle itself.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">This piece is designed to inspire a discussion of &#8220;best practices,&#8221; and we expect this to start a rich discussion that can lead to better network intelligence on how to use technology wisely.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">It&#8217;s important to recognize and understand that nothing is truly 100% &#8220;safe&#8221; when it comes to privacy on the internet, but we do the best we can to protect ourselves and minimize our exposure and footprint. If the powers that be truly wanted access, we all know they control the doorways.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">This article was written by Corey Lynn of Corey&#8217;s Digs for <a href="https://home.solari.com/">The Solari Report</a>. Below is a conversation between Corey Lynn and Catherine Austin Fitts on this information.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">The Infrastructure of Influence Operations</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">The infrastructure is somewhat boundless and seems to seep in from every crevice, but there are ways to minimize and avoid much of it. It&#8217;s important to recognize who and where it&#8217;s coming from, in order to begin removing and limiting all of this noise.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Influencers</strong></p><ul><li><p>Social and news media</p></li><li><p>Entertainment industry</p></li><li><p>Education system &#8211; schools</p></li><li><p>Politicians</p></li><li><p>Big corp, big tech, and big pharma</p></li><li><p>Agents of influencers who make it seem like there is organic support for the narratives being pushed</p></li><li><p>Unknowing individuals who have been manipulated</p></li></ul><p><strong>Applications Used for Mind Control and Tracking</strong></p><ul><li><p>TV</p></li><li><p>Radio</p></li><li><p>Internet</p></li><li><p>Smartphones and Smartwatches</p></li><li><p>Video games</p></li><li><p>GPS system in vehicles</p></li><li><p>Cell towers</p></li><li><p>Smart meters</p></li><li><p>Surveillance cameras on every corner</p></li><li><p>Satellites and drones</p></li><li><p>Transhumanism-related technologies</p></li><li><p>AI and robotics</p></li><li><p>Smart devices, such as Amazon&#8217;s Alexa or Echo, Apple&#8217;s HomePod, or Google&#8217;s Nest Cam</p></li><li><p>Materials received in the mail</p></li><li><p>Visual aids such as signs, stickers, and plexiglass walls</p></li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Covert Invisible Forms of Mind Control</strong></p><ul><li><p>Long and short-wave electromagnetic forces emitted in public spaces to induce certain feelings</p></li><li><p>Frequency manipulation</p></li><li><p>Subliminal programming</p></li><li><p>Brainwave manipulation</p></li><li><p><a href="https://home.solari.com/entrained-subliminal-programming-and-financial-manipulation/">Entrainment technology</a></p></li><li><p>Waveform can be transmitted through the entire power grid into our homes</p></li></ul><h3>Minimizing Risks &amp; Maximizing Your Circle</h3><p>This is one of the most important checklists you will ever complete. Sure, it may take several weeks, but that&#8217;s ok, this isn&#8217;t a race. It&#8217;s important to accomplish these tasks sooner than later, but it will also feel like a bit of a transformation, so pace yourself. Much of these can be done by yourself, but some of them will require a group effort. This is a good way for the Circle to come together and select which tasks to tackle first, while assigning some of the items to individuals most qualified.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">I would highly recommend working on the items that will impact the Circle first, such as setting up a private open-source cloud communications system for the group, encrypted email accounts, and encrypted calling services, such as Telegram. It might be wise to bring your cell phones to one meeting so that everyone can help one another out while installing these apps, and other cell phone related tasks listed below. Once that is complete, cell phones should not be brought into meetings.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Many of these items are things you can do in your home and on your own, and may be welcomed new habits you find enjoyment in. Other items may be a little more challenging, which is why the support of the Circle is so powerful. You will have multiple people to offer a helping hand.</p><h3>The Basics</h3><p>&#10065; Unplug and turn off your TV, or get rid of it entirely, especially if it&#8217;s a <strong><a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2019/09/18/you-watch-tv-your-tv-watches-back/">smart TV</a></strong>.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; You may consider setting up a second phone number on an app such as <strong><a href="https://www.kall8.com/">Kall8</a></strong> to have forwarded to your phone. This will protect your main number and limit the amount of robocalls and other potential nefarious actions against you.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Clean out and organize files on your computer. Remove the 200 bookmarks you don&#8217;t need and only keep a small handful. Remove all the clutter to free your mind. Remove all application software you do not use.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Clear your browser cache weekly. For speed, browsers will automatically cache website information and sometimes they don&#8217;t accept change very well. Here&#8217;s some handy cache clearing instruction links for <strong><a href="https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/clear-your-browsing-history-sfri47acf5d6/mac">MacOS Safari</a></strong>, <strong><a href="https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201265">iOS Safari</a></strong>, and <strong><a href="https://support.mozilla.org/gu-IN/kb/how-clear-firefox-cache">FireFox</a></strong>. We do not recommend using Chrome or Outlook.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Always read the terms and conditions when downloading or installing any apps. Though it is not recommended to install social media apps, these are the most dangerous ones because they sneak in information that allows them to access other areas of your phone. The 2013 documentary &#8216;<strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkk2wtiMU1E">Terms and Conditions May Apply&#8217;</a></strong> is a must watch.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Never save your password when asked. If you forgot your password, and want to generate another, you will not be able to override the one you said to save. You will need to go into your Key Chain, find the password and manually delete it from your system. The best policy is to not save your passwords to your computer. To keep them safe, write them down on a piece of paper and put in a safe place. You can&#8217;t hack paper. Computer security experts have begun recommending password managers such has <strong>Dashlane, 1Password, ,</strong> and <strong>.</strong> There are some major advantages to these services, as they generate and remember your passwords for you. You create one master password to access them. The information is saved onto your devices and powerfully encrypted so it&#8217;s almost impossible to hack. Be sure to always setup passwords and logins with double authentication where it&#8217;s available.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Unsubscribe to everything you find unnecessary. They can put subliminal messages directly into emails as well.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; If you are backing up files from your computer, back them up to an external hard drive, not to an online cloud.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Take some time every day to be out in nature and ground yourself.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Keep your computer &amp; mobile phone operating systems and applications up-to-date.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe now&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?"><span>Subscribe now</span></a></p><h3>Cybersecurity and Privacy</h3><p>&#10065; Ditch the smartphone if you can. If you can&#8217;t, we find Apple phones and Linux based phones far preferable to Android. Beware, because both Apple and Linux based phones must connect with telecommunication providers and that is where a lot of the trouble can start. Linux based phones take more knowledge and enjoy less tech support, so appreciate you may need help from a Linux phone pro. Apps are the big problem, so be careful what you download and put on your phone. Consider leaving your phone turned off and in the car. If you want to use a Faraday bag, appreciate that most do not work.</p><p>&#10065; Remove all tracking apps from cell phone, and all applications you don&#8217;t need or use.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; It is best to uninstall social media apps from cell phones.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Use encrypted services for phone calls and messaging, such as <strong><a href="https://telegram.org/">Telegram</a></strong>, which can also be utilized on a desktop computer.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Don&#8217;t sleep with any spyware technology in your bedroom, especially a smartphone.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Turn off Bluetooth on your phone unless it&#8217;s absolutely necessary to occasionally turn on.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; If using GPS in your vehicle, be sure it is not one that transmits. Some experts believe all of them do, others say no, just some. We are not sure. Consider buying a hard GPS. Never ever use Google maps. It would be a wise idea to pick up some good old-fashioned large printed road maps. Know where you are going using maps and be aware of the institutions and sites around you (like military and enforcement locations.)</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; No video platform is safe, so understand that you may be recorded.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Avoid corporate operating systems, including all Windows operating systems, Chromebooks, and Amazon Fire computers.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Use <strong><a href="https://www.libreoffice.org/">Libre Office</a></strong> or <strong><a href="https://www.openoffice.org/">OpenOffice</a></strong> instead of Microsoft Office.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Use <strong><a href="https://www.thunderbird.net/">Thunderbird</a></strong> instead of Microsoft Outlook.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; MacOS is recommended, or load a good Linux desktop distribution like <strong><a href="https://ubuntu.com/desktop">Ubuntu Desktop</a></strong> or <strong><a href="https://linuxmint.com/">Mint</a></strong> on your existing PC hardware.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; If you&#8217;re using MacOS, make sure your firewall is enabled and you know how to configure it.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Use ClamXAV Anti-Virus.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; FireFox has a built-in ad blocker or you can use Privacy Badger for FireFox. For all browsers, you can use uBlock Origin ad.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Experts have differing opinions on VPNs, which are virtual private networks that mask and hide your location, providing privacy and anonymity. I personally use VPNs and have found them to work quite well for me. That said, proxy servers are also beneficial and some experts prefer using those. A proxy server is a remote application or appliance that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from serves that provide those resources, which allows you to mask and hide your location. Some popular free proxy servers are: <strong><a href="https://hidester.com/proxy/">Hidester</a>, <a href="https://hide.me/en/proxy">HideMe</a>, <a href="https://www.proxysite.com/">ProxySite</a>, <a href="https://kproxy.com/">Kproxy</a>, <a href="https://www.vpnbook.com/webproxy">VPNBook</a>, <a href="https://www.megaproxy.com/freesurf/">Megaproxy</a>, </strong>and<strong> <a href="https://zend2.com/">Zens2</a>.</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; For search engines, consider using Duck Duck Go for a start page.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Avoid visiting questionable websites to avoid viruses and trojans.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Scams are at an all-time high, so be careful not to click on links inside emails, but rather type the url into a search bar instead if you&#8217;re not sure the email is legit.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Don&#8217;t use unsecured public Wi-Fi. In your home, connect directly by ethernet if you can. If your ISP provides you a router with built in wifi, ask them to turn it off for you, then purchase a Netgear or Linksys mesh router, and plug it into the back of your router, which will allow you to turn off wifi when not using it. Here is a handy <strong><a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-mesh-wifi?op=1">tutorial</a></strong>.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Take the time to go into various background search databases and remove yourself from them, along with all other sites, and reduce your digital footprint. Every time you enter your full address and contact info into another website, there&#8217;s a good chance it&#8217;s being sold off to third parties.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Don&#8217;t use email services by large corporations. If you need an alternative, we recommend <strong><a href="https://protonmail.com/">Proton Mail</a></strong> and <strong><a href="https://www.startmail.com/en/">Start Mail</a></strong>. If you&#8217;re looking for a full-service provider, that can provide website registration, hosting, and email for your domain, we recommend <strong><a href="https://www.infomaniak.com/en">infomaniak</a></strong>.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; An often overlooked source of domestic EMF and RF exposure comes from nearby high-tension power lines, AM, FM, Short Wave broadcast, TV Stations, and nearby Military bases. These sources often present radically higher EMF and RF exposure levels than cell phones and Bluetooth. Effective radiated power can reach, possibly exceed, one-million watts. The only way to really know your level of exposure is to hire a reputable engineering firm who can perform the required studies. This is an expensive solution that will remove all doubt.</p><h3>Observation and Introspection to Avoid Mind Control Techniques</h3><p>&#10065; When spending time on a computer, cell phone, or television, pay attention to your energy or emotions switching, like suddenly feeling warm and fuzzy or irritated. If you feel this shift for seemingly no reason, there is a good chance you were subjected to a subliminal message or wave. Clear your mind, clear your energy field, and center your heart to get back on track. The more in tune you become, the more you will recognize the need to minimize use of these devices and free your mind from the attacks.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Observe your reactions &#8211; if you are doing, feeling, thinking, or saying something that seems &#8220;off&#8221; to you, you were likely manipulated. Did you suddenly feel drawn to or inspired by someone who you don&#8217;t really care for?</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Check yourself with your friends or Circle to help keep you on track.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; When you turn on a piece of equipment &#8211; understand what their incentive is. Are they selling you something? Are they trying to help you or harm you?</p><h3>Protect Your Children</h3><p>&#10065; Everything pertaining to phones, television, and internet above, should also be managed on your children&#8217;s devices as well, with the addition of parental control settings.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Not to invoke fear, but I do not recommend a smartphone for children due to the high level of indoctrination, entrainment mind control tactics, and predators targeting children.</p><p>&#10065; Pornography is a huge industry which directly correlates to the child trafficking industry, generating $150 billion in revenue annually. Protecting your children from technology that drives these industries is of the utmost importance. The entertainment industry is famous for sexualizing children. Pornography is also a trap &#8211; if someone is browsing pornography and stumbles upon kiddie pornography, a control file may be created, which can be used at anytime to entrap a person into a felony, or for blackmail purposes.</p><p>&#10065; Search your local sex offenders registry and be aware of who is in your neighborhood. You may consider showing the mugshot photos to your children and letting them know that they should not befriend them if they see them in the neighborhood.</p><p>&#10065; If your children are still in public schools be sure to review their entire curriculum, especially the books they are to read and any books being read to them. Also explore the school library. They have been indoctrinating children through books for several decades now &#8211; filling their minds with broken families, not to trust parents, transgender agenda, climate change hoax, very dark stories to instill fear, and books that would incite rage and anger.</p><p>&#10065; Find out what your children are learning about and discussing in school, what signs and visual aids are posted throughout the school, and what they are playing on televisions in the classrooms.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Most public schools are pushing the <strong>transgender agenda</strong>, whereby they are telling children they can &#8220;choose&#8221; to be a boy or girl, trying to create a gender identity crisis. From locker rooms to sporting events, pronouns to removing the words &#8220;mom and dad,&#8221; they are seeding their minds with mass confusion.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Planned Parenthood is involved with many public schools as well, and their goal is to sexualize the children. Find out if they are involved with your children&#8217;s schools.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&#10065; Climate change and sustainability is a huge veil that has been placed over children&#8217;s eyes to make them believe they need to grow up and fight for the environment, when it&#8217;s really about training them to be good soldiers for controlled smart cities. Be sure to teach your children the difference between respecting and caring for the environment versus their &#8220;climate change&#8221; agenda. Agenda 21 and 2030 are good places to review for this.</p><h3>Using Technology to Your Advantage</h3><p>&#10065; <strong>How to create an open-source cloud that the Circle can use to share documents</strong><br>Get off the public cloud. Setup your own cloud on a local computer that someone in the Circle owns so that documents can be shared among the group. Someone in the Circle who is technology-oriented would be best suited to set it up. Here are some <strong><a href="https://lifehacker.com/how-to-set-up-your-own-private-cloud-storage-service-in-5993596">basic instructions</a></strong> for utilizing open-source software. OR, if you have someone who is technologically savvy, the better option would be to setup a cloud server from scratch on Linux. OR, setup a <strong><a href="https://www.ubuntupit.com/best-linux-nas-solutions-and-linux-san-software/">Network Attached Storage (NAS)</a></strong>, which is a cloud-based open-source software that is preconfigured on the hardware and software level, that can be purchased.</p><p>&#10065; There are a lot of electromagnetic field (EMF) detectors and devices to protect from too much EMF, available online.  There are other stores available as well.</p><p>&#10065; The Circle might wish to brainstorm some ideas for utilizing the internet to educate others or sell a product or service, to raise funds that can be used for small software or technology purchases.</p><h3>Free Your Mind</h3><p>Once many of these tasks become habits and routine, you will begin to feel a sense of relief, like a weight has been lifted off your shoulders. You will have more free time, less distraction and less confusion. You will likely feel more privacy and a sense of freedom, safer and more secure. You may also notice a shift in your energy field, as though something that was once piercing it is no longer there.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">If someone in the Circle is creating problems and not contributing ethically or isn&#8217;t competent, you may have to make the tough decision to remove them from your Circle. The Circle is for support, not additional distractions or disruptions from meeting your goals. Just as in life, with friends, sometimes we have to sever ties.Mantras and affirmations can be very powerful in deprogramming your mind from the infiltration of unneeded and unwanted information. Each morning upon waking, and at night before sleeping, say this mantra to yourself, or come up with one that works best for you.<br><br><em>&#8220;I will only allow information and frequencies into my mind and body that is for my best and highest good, that will serve my soul and keep me mentally and physically healthy.&#8221;</em></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Always remember, you are not alone in this.

consumerism?</p><p>Perhaps my words might seem like mere emotional anger or an imaginary doubt, but looking toward the deep structural analysis of the late-capitalist market system makes the naked reality behind this clear.</p><p>We are passing through such a strange socio-economic reality where even people&#8217;s most primitive, secluded, and painful feelings have been transformed into flawless products. Consumerism first makes people lonely and exhausted through the rat race, uncertainty, and alienation, and subsequently builds a multi-billion-dollar international business industry precisely in the name of filling that void.</p><p>This matter is not merely concept-driven; clear proof of this is found in various psychological researches alongside the hard statistics of the market. According to researchers of communication and business studies, in modern consumer society, shopping is no longer just a medium for meeting physical needs&#8212;it has become a psychological tool to keep the mind well, gain social recognition, and seek mental joy or entertainment. Research shows that when people suffer from mild to moderate depression or melancholy, a strong tendency for hedonic consumption&#8212;purchasing pleasurable and consumerist products to make themselves feel a bit better&#8212;develops within them.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

But these are no real solutions, rather merely temporary dopamine hits. The more people pile products into shopping carts to cover up depression or go to expensive restaurants to enjoy the artificial vibe of cafe culture, the more capitalism&#8217;s cash register rings. However, the ultimate truth is that when the level of depression reaches a severe to deeper stage, the very desire to seek joy through this artificial shopping or consumption completely vanishes from people.</p><p>Similarly, a massive market for this is visible in the global economy as well. According to international statistics, the global mental health market has already crossed 100 billion dollars, making it one of the fastest-growing growth sectors for investors. On the other hand, the global market for antidepressant medications to reduce depression has grown year by year to reach over 23.5 billion dollars, and tech businesses like virtual therapy and meditation apps have surpassed 9 billion dollars. Research shows that compared to a satisfied person, a depressed and lonely person spends the most time on screens and makes more impulse purchases. As a result, an individual&#8217;s psychological loneliness is the core fuel of the algorithmic dopamine economy.</p><p>It is crucial to understand how depression transformed from a structural issue into a commercial product from a deep socio-philosophical perspective. Cultural theorist Mark Fisher described this in his famous book <em>Capitalist Realism</em> as the &#8220;Capitalist Realism&#8221; of mental health. Society&#8217;s hyper-competitive environment, economic uncertainty, and mechanical lifestyle constantly isolate and sadden people. But the market system masks this structural or political failure and shifts all blame onto the individual. People are made to believe that the problem does not lie in society&#8217;s toxic system, but is purely a chemical imbalance in their brain or a personal failure. Consequently, instead of raising demands for social change or collective resistance, people buy medicine, therapy packages, or paid courses as personal solutions.</p><p>Similarly, where the primary condition for mental well-being was pausing for a moment, returning to nature, or coming close to people, modern consumerism has branded the concept of self-care and turned it into a luxury product. An artificial social sense has been created that self-care or mental nourishment is incomplete unless one buys expensive scented candles, skincare items, or exclusive wellness packages.</p><p>The alienation of labor that Karl Marx spoke of during the era of the Industrial Revolution has today spread to every level of human existence. As a result of hyper-individualism, natural spaces like family, friends, or social gatherings have shrunk. The spaces of selfless human relationships, where once the burden of the mind could be unburdened free of cost or empathy could be found, have now been taken over by fee-based monetized services.</p><p>To escape this human isolation and depression, a strange new artificial trend of relationships with Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been created in today&#8217;s era. Instead of facing the flaws, complexities, or emotions of a real ordinary person, people are now searching for a &#8220;perfect companion&#8221; inside AI. Relationships are forming between wives and AI bots, and relationships between husbands and AI as well, where there is no argument, no demands, only fake empathy and flawless attention. But in trying to find that imaginary perfectionism or flawless behavior among real people, intense friction and distance are ultimately being created in marital and family relationships. The market is pushing us away from humans and making us slaves to artificial algorithms, and to cover up that sorrow, it is forcing us to buy yet another new artificial service or artificial relationship.</p><p>Of course, there is no opportunity to deny the importance of medical science or professional psychiatric therapy; in cases of severe clinical depression, science-based proper treatment saves lives. But the crisis arises when the normal grief, exhaustion, existential crisis, and social suffering of life are blanketly turned into a disease or depression, and brand stickers or barcodes are slapped onto them.</p><p>Depression is not a fashion, and the true meaning of life cannot be found in shopping cart purchases, restaurant fancy foods, or the fake love of algorithms. Intellectually recognizing this business of sorrow of capitalism is the first step toward awareness. True mental relief does not lie in shiny brand packaging, AI chatbots, or app subscriptions; it lies in genuine human bonding, awareness against social mechanization, and the inherent strength not to let one&#8217;s deep emotions and feelings be turned into market commodities.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

Recently, some of my subscribers told me that my articles are no longer showing up in their inbox and are going straight to the spam folder instead. That's when I realized that Google Gmail has suppressed my publication; perhaps they don't like my writing. This is happening to many other Substack writers as well; the same thing is happening with some of my friends who are also Substack writers. So please, if it goes to your spam folder, mark it as 'not as spam'.<br><br>Imagine you are sitting at your study table or in front of your laptop working on something very urgent, when suddenly your mind tells you, &#8220;Hey, let&#8217;s go grab some tea&#8221; or &#8220;Let&#8217;s check if there are any messages on the phone.&#8221; You finish your tea or unlock your phone, but the thread of concentration is broken right there. Or consider this: whenever you feel down, an intense urge suddenly arises to open a shopping app and order something, or under the pretext of refreshing yourself during work breaks, you repeatedly open the fridge looking for food. These highly familiar, everyday behaviors of ours are by no means coincidences. Under the guise of these ordinary tasks, the brain isn&#8217;t actually running away from work; rather, it is disguisedly seeking a drop of quick dopamine gratification.</p><p>The greatest illusion of human nature is that we believe our decisions, emotions, feelings, and preferences are entirely the product of our own independent thoughts. From picking up the phone first thing in the morning to being drawn to a particular product before going to sleep at night, or being stirred by a specific political ideology, we assume everything is part of our personality. Yet, when we perform a subtle dissection of neuroscience and behavioral science, a chilling truth comes to light. The human brain is fundamentally a biochemical mechanism or a complex biological algorithm. Dark psychology and modern neuro-manipulation are actually profound scientific techniques for reverse-engineering certain biological features, evolutionary vulnerabilities, and neurochemical loops of the human brain. Behind this game of controlling the free will of millions of people with invisible strings lies a set of solid and proven rules of science.</p><p>Our subconscious mind is always in search of a specific chemical drive, which in scientific terms is called the dopaminergic pathway. In the mid-20th century, the famous psychologist B. F. Skinner uncovered a fascinating psychological truth through his operant conditioning research. He introduced the variable ratio reinforcement schedule, or the rule of uncertain rewards. The research showed that if an animal is given a reward at completely uncertain times instead of for every specific task, the level of addiction in its brain increases manifold. Modern neuroimaging studies or fMRI scans reveal that when a person faces extreme uncertainty instead of predictable outcomes, abnormal amounts of the neurotransmitter dopamine begin to be secreted in the ventral tegmental area and nucleus accumbens regions of the brain. Modern tech giants have very cleverly translated this biological trap into the digital world. Just like pulling the lever on a casino slot machine where a person does not know whether they will hit the jackpot or return empty-handed the next time, every single infinite scroll or notification pull with a finger on a social media feed acts as a digital casino spin for the brain. Whether the very next video after a scroll will make you laugh, surprise you, or annoy you&#8212;this intense uncertainty traps your brain in an endless dopamine loop, and you unwittingly lose track of time, surrendering your life behind a screen.</p><p>The prefrontal cortex, located at the front of our brain, is the primary control center for human conscience, reasoning, long-term decision-making, and emotional restraint. It is essentially what sets humans apart from animals and gives us a unique intellectual entity. However, the scientific truth is that the metabolic capacity and energy of the prefrontal cortex are extremely limited. In his research, psychologist George Miller showed that human working memory can process only a small amount of information at a time. The flood of short-form content, constant notifications, and information that we are currently drowning in is referred to in science as cognitive overload. When the brain is continuously stimulated day after day by thousands of flashes of color, rapidly changing scenes, and chaotic information, the metabolic energy or glucose of the prefrontal cortex gets depleted rapidly. This is known as decision fatigue or the brain getting fried. When the prefrontal cortex becomes exhausted and temporarily inactive, the reins of the human subconscious are handed over to the brain&#8217;s primitive and emotional parts&#8212;the amygdala and the limbic system. As a result, a person loses their own judgment and becomes intensely emotional, restless, irritable, and extremely vulnerable to any external psychological manipulation.</p><p>Capitalizing on this neuro-vulnerability of the brain, it is possible to implant untruths as absolute truths in the human mind, scientific proof of which was found in the 1977 illusory truth effect experiments introduced by researcher Hasher and his team. Our brain always wants to finish tasks quickly with minimal energy, a concept known as cognitive economy. When the brain repeatedly processes a specific piece of information or phrase, its perceptual fluency&#8212;the ease of processing that information&#8212;dramatically increases. The brain makes the mistake of accepting this effortless processing as the truth subconsciously, without verifying it with its own logic. fMRI studies have clearly shown that while evaluating a false statement that has been heard or seen repeatedly, the brain&#8217;s critical analysis centers remain somewhat dormant. From the well-thought-out propaganda of corporate branding to the creation of political cults, human perceptual fluency is weaponized everywhere to establish a completely fictional narrative as an absolute truth within the subconscious mind.</p><p>According to famous neuropsychologist Donald Hebb&#8217;s fundamental law, neurons that fire electrical signals together build permanent connections with each other. This capacity of the human brain to adapt is called neuroplasticity. Just as it helps humans learn new skills, under the grip of dark psychology, it ironically becomes a cause of human destruction. When we constantly face hyper-stimulation, artificial excitement, or artificial dopamine spikes like pornography, neuroplasticity completely alters the brain&#8217;s neural pathways. As a reaction to this abnormal firing of neurons, the brain reduces the number of dopamine D2 receptors to protect itself, a process known in science as down-regulation. The disastrous consequence of this is that the simple pleasures of normal life&#8212;such as reading a book, walking in nature, talking to a loved one, or focusing on a difficult task&#8212;start feeling completely bland and boring. People then begin to suffer from extreme mental emptiness, depression, and loneliness, and to fill that void, they repeatedly jump right back into the traps of artificial stimuli orchestrated by dark psychology.</p><p>The reality is that in the modern era, the battles of major powers are no longer fought for geographical borders or worldly resources; the most precious and rare commodity in the world today is your attention. A large part of whom you will love, whom you will hate, what you will buy from the market, or whether you will remain satisfied with your life or plunge into extreme despair is now being determined in the background by subtle neuro-algorithms and psychological manipulation. When you cannot sit alone in peace inside your own mind even for five minutes, when silence haunts you, you must understand that the sovereignty of your consciousness has been taken over by someone else. Dark psychology or neuro-hacking is not something imaginary; it is a clever misuse of specific biological processes of the human brain. To break free from the shackles of this psychological slavery, there is no alternative to becoming aware of one&#8217;s own neurochemical mechanism, dopamine loop, and subconscious psychology. Practicing deep thought, keeping the prefrontal cortex active, and taking the remote control of your attention back into your own hands is the only intellectual revolution required to preserve one&#8217;s integrity, personality, and fundamental existence in this era of technology-driven conspiracy.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[I Want to Stop CBDCs – What Can I Do?]]></title><description><![CDATA[If you're wondering what you can actually do to push back against Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), this piece is a must-read.

It is important to recognize that there is a great deal that each one of us can do to take action. In a highly leveraged financial system such as we have, a single individual counts for a lot.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

Walk out on establishments that refuse to accept cash. When using remote facilities where cash is not possible, use checks if you can. We understand from one subscriber that check companies are scrambling to fill the orders of all of the bank customers who have requested checks recently. Whether the indicator is banking statistics or anecdotal reports from our subscribers, cash use is clearly rising.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>(2) NURTURE ANALOG.</strong> We want a healthy balance of digital and analog transaction options. What we do not want is an all-digital system&#8212;whether it is CBDCs or all of the other digital mechanisms. Some digitization is both healthy and efficient, but an all-digital system&#8212;with regards to virtually anything&#8212;is vulnerable to central control and manipulation. Roll back your use of digital systems, avoid biometric technology as much as possible, and don&#8217;t use QR codes! Get invasive surveillance systems out of your home. Use hard-wired Internet connections, not Wi-Fi, and find other ways to Loosen Technology&#8217;s Grip on Your Mind.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>(3) SEEK INTEGRITY.</strong> Transact with people of integrity, even if to do so appears to cost more. In the end, fraudsters and others who contribute to unhealthy systems through their own greed or lust for power cause untold losses. All those little expenses related to transacting with integrity can end up being lifesavers if the alternative is you having assets in Madoff and Lehman Brothers.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>(4) BANK AT AN INTIMATE SCALE.</strong> Find a good, well-managed local bank or credit union for your banking business (see <a href="https://home.solari.com/how-to-find-a-local-bank/">How to Find a Good Local Bank</a>). Talk to your bankers to educate them about the dangers to you and the bank of a CBDC system. See our <a href="https://home.solari.com/template-letter-to-banker-re-effect-of-cbdc-on-my-financial-health/">template letter</a>, which you can share with your bank, modifying it to include your own individual circumstances and CBDC-related concerns.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>(5) FINANCE YOUR FRIENDS, NOT YOUR ENEMIES. </strong>Start reducing your number of online and digital financial transactions and evolve away whenever possible from relying on or investing in the fintech and credit card companies that are financing and promoting digital IDs, vaccine or health passports, and CBDCs. Financing your local farmer or farm distribution service may not look like a great money-maker, but it means you will have a better chance of not being cornered into eating insects and lab-grown meat.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>(6) SUPPORT STATE OFFICIALS WHO SUPPORT FINANCIAL FREEDOM. </strong>Ask your state legislators to start a sovereign state bank like the Bank of North Dakota to protect your right to free financial transactions. Make sure it is a sovereign bank that supports (and does not and cannot compete with) private community banks and credit unions, and helps to ensure they can provide free private financial transactions.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">While you are at it, ask them to start a state bullion depository. Then, in the worst-case scenario, you can use your gold and silver as a local currency (if your state has been smart enough to cancel sales tax on precious metals&#8212;if not, that&#8217;s another matter to bring up with state legislators).</p><ul><li><p><a href="https://home.solari.com/special-solari-report-a-sovereign-state-bank-and-bullion-depository-for-tennessee-with-senator-frank-niceley/">A Sovereign State Bank and Bullion Depository for Tennessee with Senator Frank Nicely</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://home.solari.com/special-solari-report-free-in-tennessee-kicking-tyranny-to-the-curb/">Free in Tennessee: Kicking Tyranny to the Curb</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://home.solari.com/coming-thursday-state-and-local-officials-you-are-stronger-than-you-think-you-are-with-pete-kennedy/">State and Local Officials: You Are Stronger Than You Think You Are with Pete Kennedy</a></p></li></ul><p><strong>7) DEMAND THE NEW YORK FED BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE</strong>.

We usually view time as a straight line moving only forward, but the people of the ancient Maya civilization did not see time through this simple lens. They viewed time as an endless cycle that repeats over and over, and absolute control over this cycle rested in the hands of their elite class.</p><p>Today, I watched a video on YouTube titled <em>Maya Religion Explained</em> from the channel <em>Religion for Breakfast</em>. The video was quite informative, but to me, it felt like much was left unaddressed.</p><p>As an analyst, my job is not to remain satisfied with just looking at the outer surface. I have to search for those dark and hidden truths within that are kept from ordinary people. I have always maintained this perspective in my writing.</p><p>I researched deeper beyond the video and uncovered some shocking data that will present the entire concept of the Maya civilization to you in a completely new light.</p><p>The video begins with Bishop James Ussher, who fixed a specific date for the creation of the Earth. But the Maya held a concept of time far deeper than theirs. For the Maya, the world began on August 11, 3114 BCE.</p><p>Now, if you wonder why they chose this date, you have to delve into the Maya&#8217;s study of time.</p><p>The Maya did not view time from a single dimension. They controlled time through multiple cycles. One of their cycles was 260 days, called the Tzolkin, which regulated their religious rituals. Another cycle was 365 days, which they called the Haab. This Haab was a calendar of 18 months, with 20 days in each month, followed by 5 days at the end that were considered extremely inauspicious.</p><p>The Maya believed that during these five days, ghosts and spirits descended upon the Earth. But even more terrifying than these was their Long Count calendar. It was based on this Long Count calendar that the concept of 13 Baktuns emerged, which sparked the terrible rumor of the world ending in 2012. There is even a movie about this! Anyone who has seen it, let me know in the comments!</p><p>Actually, from my research, I found that the Maya never believed the world would be destroyed in 2012. Maya eschatology&#8212;or their belief regarding the ultimate fate of the world&#8212;is completely different from the apocalyptic beliefs of the West.</p><p>They believed that when one cycle ends, another new cycle begins. To them, creation was an endless loop that continuously recurs.</p><p>Now the question arises: why did their kings create such a complex system of tracking time? The answer is control. Those who can claim to predict the dates of the creation and destruction of the world become godlike figures to ordinary people.</p><p>It was, in full measure, a form of psychological warfare.</p><p>By binding people to a massive cycle of time, they rendered their rule unquestionable. The foundation of their psychology was that when individuals perceive themselves as insignificant against infinite time, they naturally remain subservient to those in power.</p><p>However, absolute power cannot be maintained through calendars alone. Controlling the people requires extreme visual proof, and that is where the most terrifying and shocking aspect of Maya civilization emerges: the ritual of bloodletting.</p><p>The video does mention auto-sacrifice, but the brutal details beneath it were avoided.</p><p>As I explored the deeper aspects of this subject, I learned what terrifying methods Maya kings and queens practiced to offer blood sacrifices to their gods.</p><p>You will shudder to hear that kings used sharp obsidian stone blades and stingray spines to pierce their own genitals and draw blood.

Today, we will talk about an invisible force that commands far more financial control than the power or political might of any nation.</p><p>Recently, I was watching a deeply insightful and informative analysis on the Think School channel. The video detailed a firm named BlackRock. I carefully analyzed the mechanism behind how BlackRock built an unimaginable empire of fifteen trillion dollars. As a market analyst, I always try to look at the underlying structure of a business. One question kept revolving in my mind: how did a company that has never manufactured a single basic mobile phone or small microchip in its life come to control almost everything on Earth? This entire affair did not strike me as just a simple business case study; rather, it was a chilling yet flawless reflection of modern capitalism. Therefore, I decided to present this entire mechanism to you through my own lens and a first-rate corporate analysis. I am confident that this discussion will completely transform your perspective and take your understanding of the global market to a whole new level.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

If we combine the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of three huge economies like India, Japan, and France, it still won't equal this number. Naturally, we tend to think that they are the actual owners of tech giants like Apple or Microsoft. However, the internal reality of the corporate world is entirely different. Steve Jobs owned less than one percent of Apple's shares, whereas this institution named BlackRock controls nearly eight percent of Apple's stock. Bill Gates holds merely 1.34 percent of Microsoft's shares, but BlackRock holds over eight percent ownership in Microsoft. Jensen Huang, who built Nvidia piece by piece with his own hands, holds only a 3.7 percent stake, while BlackRock's share there also sits above eight percent. These statistics point out plain as day that these invisible players on Wall Street hold far more power than the innovators of Silicon Valley. They don't run factories themselves; they don't bring any physical products to market. Yet, they are the largest shareholders in almost every profitable business on Earth. This didn't happen by magic. Behind it lies a flawless and, in some ways, extremely ruthless financial strategy that began several decades ago.</p><p>Many may wonder how a company with just an eight or ten percent stake can control a tech giant like Apple or Microsoft. Simple mathematical logic suggests that controlling a company requires at least fifty-one percent of the shares. But corporate finance operates on an entirely different math. The remaining ninety or ninety-two percent of shares are scattered across millions of retail investors around the world. These ordinary investors never come together to vote at board meetings; they lack a collective voice.</p><p>However, the eight percent held by BlackRock is an extraordinarily well-organized and unified voting block. Whenever a major decision needs to be made, this eight percent vote plays the decisive role. They place their preferred candidates on the company&#8217;s Board of Directors. Through this, they quietly control the company&#8217;s future strategy, product line, and even sensitive decisions like employee layoffs from behind the curtain. In other words, how the iPhone in your pocket functions or how Microsoft deploys its new AI technology is not being decided by Silicon Valley engineers, but by these suit-and-tie financial executives on Wall Street.</p><p>The mastermind behind this massive empire is a man named Larry Fink. Back in the 1980s, Wall Street called him the King of Money. Larry built a mechanism that could literally be described as a machine for printing money out of thin air.</p><p>At that time, the banking sector faced a major structural problem. When banks issued home loans to everyday people, they had to wait up to thirty years to collect that money back with interest. This long waiting period was anything but healthy for a bank&#8217;s cash flow.</p><p>Larry Fink came up with a groundbreaking yet extraordinarily complex solution to this problem. He created a financial instrument called the Collateralized Mortgage Obligation. To regular people, the term might sound convoluted, but the mathematical logic behind it is utterly fascinating.</p><p>Suppose a particular bank holds a total of 100 million dollars in 30-year home loans, earning an annual interest rate of nine percent. Larry and his highly skilled financial team divided this entire 100-million-dollar loan portfolio into 100 smaller units, pricing each unit at one million dollars. Now, retail investors could buy these units from the market as bonds.</p><p>Whenever homeowners paid their monthly mortgage installments to the bank, a portion of that money flowed directly into the accounts of these bondholders. This meant banks no longer had to wait thirty years to recover their principal; they received their capital back immediately from investors, while bondholders earned a steady, guaranteed rate of interest right from home.</p><p>At first glance, this might seem like a perfect win-win situation where both the bank and the investors profit. However, the real game on Wall Street is never quite that simple.</p><p>Larry Fink divided these loans into three separate portions&#8212;or tranches&#8212;based on risk. He categorized these bonds into A, B, and C.</p><p>Bond A had a total size of 50 million dollars, but it offered the lowest interest rate: just six percent. Bond B was sized at 30 million dollars with an interest rate set at seven percent. Finally, Bond C had a size of 20 million dollars and offered the highest yield at eight percent.</p><p>Now, you might wonder why there was such a difference in these interest rates. The sole reason was managing the degree of risk. Whenever homeowners began repaying their loans, that money went straight into the pockets of Bond A holders first. Consequently, their investment was the safest, which is why their interest rate was lower than the market average. Once Bond A was fully paid off, any surplus funds flowed to the investors in Bond B, and lastly, if anything remained, it went to Bond C.</p><p>In other words, if a homeowner defaulted on their mortgage for any reason, the investors in Bond C would be the very first to lose their capital. Because their risk was the highest, their interest rate was kept the highest as well.</p><p>Taking a closer look at this mathematical calculation reveals the true face of Wall Street&#8217;s exploitation. On this 100-million-dollar loan, homeowners were paying the bank a total of nine million dollars in interest. Yet, the total interest distributed proportionally to the investors of Bond A, Bond B, and Bond C amounted to just 6.7 million dollars.</p><p>The most critical question here is: where did that massive 2.3 million dollars in the middle go?</p><p>That 2.3 million dollars was pure profit for Larry Fink. Without manufacturing any product, without performing any physical labor or offering direct customer service, and simply by shifting mathematical calculations around, they were literally printing millions of dollars out of thin air. This mechanism completely transformed the Wall Street banking system, turning Larry Fink into an overnight legend.</p><p>However, this overconfidence and financial sleight of hand eventually became the single greatest threat to Larry&#8217;s career. Everyday investors assumed that the only risk in this system was if people failed to repay their loans or defaulted. But the catastrophe that hit Larry&#8217;s model was the exact opposite: people were paying off their loans well ahead of schedule, something no one had anticipated.</p><p>Suppose someone took out a large loan for thirty years at a nine percent interest rate. But a year later, another bank offered them a new loan at just seven percent. Naturally, that individual borrowed money from the new bank at the lower rate to pay off the old bank&#8217;s loan in full all at once. As a result, while the bondholders did get their principal back, the long-term interest income they had counted on when investing millions vanished in an instant.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=215705878&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;button-wrapper&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary button-wrapper" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=215705878"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><p>This unexpected and uncalculated turn of events dealt a massive blow to Larry&#8217;s financial model. Investors lost out on billions of dollars in potential profits, severely damaging Larry&#8217;s early reputation. He was virtually pushed out of Wall Street. Yet, this devastating failure couldn&#8217;t keep him down forever. Instead, it was this very bitter experience that allowed him to correct his mistakes and gather the firepower to build an even stronger, vaster, and more aggressive institution&#8212;the name of which we all know today: <strong>BlackRock</strong>.</p><p>BlackRock does not rule the current global economy alone. Working shoulder to shoulder alongside it are two other giant institutions: Vanguard and State Street. In the corporate world, these three asset management firms are collectively known as <strong>&#8220;The Big Three.&#8221;</strong></p><p>Together, these three titans have established a monopoly in the corporate realm that poses a genuine threat to the independence of sovereign governments worldwide. They do not merely own tech companies or Silicon Valley giants; they also indirectly control massive sectors of energy, healthcare, defense, and even mainstream media.</p><p>The nature of this control is extraordinarily shrewd. They are simultaneously the largest shareholders in companies that mine coal, the owners of the power plants that burn that coal to generate electricity, and the major stake-holders in tech conglomerates like Amazon and Microsoft that consume that electricity to run massive data centers. This means they hold an unbreakable, rock-solid grip at every single link of the global economic supply chain.</p><p>Let me present a real and alarming example of how this unbelievable power can be exploited. Between 2020 and 2021, under the pretext of curbing global warming, these three institutions joined several similar climate initiatives, most notably the <em>Net Zero Asset Managers</em> initiative and <em>Climate Action 100+</em>. Publicly, their stated goal was to protect the environment and reduce carbon emissions. However, the corporate reality behind the scenes was entirely different.</p><p>According to a recent legal complaint in the United States, these companies used their combined shareholding power to exert immense pressure on energy corporations to slash coal production by at least fifty percent by 2030. Since they held seats on company boards, management lacked the authority to defy their decisions.</p><p>We all saw the consequences that followed. Coal supply in the market rapidly plummeted by nineteen percent. True to basic economic principles, as supply shrank, the price of coal surged by twenty-five percent. Higher coal prices naturally drove up the cost of electricity generation, forcing everyday people to pay significantly higher utility bills at the end of the day.</p><p>Throughout this entire process, hard-working ordinary citizens were left paying the price out of pocket, while the massive corporations that intentionally constricted supply to inflate prices reaped enormous profits.</p><p>It is for this exact reason that the Attorney General of Texas filed a formal lawsuit against them. The complaint alleges that, under the guise of environmental protection, they deliberately restricted supply to line their own pockets with everyday people&#8217;s money. While litigation remains ongoing, Vanguard has already attempted to settle the matter by paying a fine of nearly thirty million dollars.</p><p>This realization sparked deep reflection for me and served as a true eye-opener from an analyst&#8217;s perspective. Think about it with a calm mind: if this caliber of power becomes concentrated in the hands of just a few companies worldwide, they can manipulate the entire global economy at will.</p><p>If they apply this exact same strategy to the pharmaceutical industry, they will never allow the prices of life-saving medicines to drop. Instead, they will engineer conditions that keep people perpetually unwell in one way or another, ensuring a continuous stream of profits in perpetuity.</p><p>The very same scenario could unfold in the education sector. They could pressure banks to push more and more student loans while coercing university boards of directors to hike tuition fees several times over. Right now in the United States, healthcare and higher education have drifted almost completely out of reach for everyday people, and the monopolistic control of these invisible corporate behemoths plays a massive role in driving that reality.</p><p>Analyzing this entire discussion with nuance brought me face to face with a deeply dark and ruthless truth of modern capitalism. If we closely examine the relationship between economic growth and true human progress, we uncover a chilling paradox. In a modern, corporate-driven capitalist economy, a completely healthy cyclist is a total disaster&#8212;a curse&#8212;for the economy. On the other hand, a sick, debt-ridden individual is an absolute blessing. While this statement may sound utterly bizarre and inhumane at first, the economic logic behind it is entirely solid and undeniable.</p><p>A person who regularly rides a bicycle has no need for an expensive car. They don&#8217;t need to visit service centers for vehicle repairs. Because they engage in regular physical activity, they remain far healthier and more fit. The direct consequence of this is that they don&#8217;t require expensive medications, doctor visits, major surgeries, or costly diagnostic tests. They don&#8217;t buy fossil fuels or gasoline for themselves, and above all, they don&#8217;t take out high-interest loans from banks or financial institutions to fund luxury expenses. In short, they serve zero purpose for this massive corporate machinery. They are self-sufficient, free, and completely outside the reach of corporate control.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=215705878&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;button-wrapper&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary button-wrapper" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=215705878"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><p>On the other hand, consider a person who is physically ill. They visit doctors regularly. They buy expensive medications just to stay alive. They require health insurance, which forces them to pay hefty monthly premiums. When they need a major surgery, they spend hundreds of thousands of dollars. If they lack adequate cash on hand, they take out medical loans from banks and spend a massive portion of their lives servicing the compounding interest on that debt.</p><p>When they use a car or an ambulance to travel to the hospital, they burn fuel. Simply put, a sick individual pumps money into every level of the system. They enrich pharmaceutical companies, boost profits for private hospitals, keep insurance companies afloat, and hand banks massive opportunities to run lucrative lending businesses.</p><p>Therefore, strictly from the perspective of GDP or national economic growth, a sick and debt-ridden individual is far, far more valuable than a healthy and independent one.</p><p>This is where my biggest question arises as an analyst: who are we actually building this economy for, and whom are we working day and night to appease?</p><p>Do we truly want a society where the economy continually swells, corporate balance sheets remain in the green, yet every single ordinary person ends up physically, mentally, and financially broken? Or do we want a balanced, measured economy where people remain healthy, free, and genuinely happy?</p><p>As a society, we must draw this line with absolute clarity. Unless we distinguish between conscious capitalism and predatory capitalism, we will never realize when we have walked right up to the edge of destruction. When an economy grows solely by the numbers on a balance sheet while turning the everyday lives of ordinary people into a living hell, that progress is not progress at all&#8212;it is a form of corporate slavery.</p><p>In one part of the video, several platforms were being discussed that allow retail investors to invest in global markets. Today, many of us buy fractional shares of top global companies with extreme ease through various apps. We think that we, too, are sharing in dividends right alongside Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg.</p><p>However, I view this a bit differently. When we invest our hard-earned money into this massive global market, we are actually supplying fresh fuel to this fifteen-trillion-dollar machine without even realizing it. We believe we are participating in a wealth-creation process, but in reality, we are joining a game where every single rule has been drafted by institutions like BlackRock or Vanguard to suit their own advantage.</p><p>Our invested capital hands them liquidity, which they then deploy to build even larger monopolies. I am by no means suggesting that investing is inherently bad or harmful. What I am trying to convey is that blindly drifting along with the tide without understanding how the system truly operates is sheer foolishness.</p><p>To me, this entire affair feels deeply alarming and concerning. Every day, I look at company growth charts, analyze their market shares, and study their future strategies. Yet, whenever I look beyond those upward-trending graphs to the ordinary people behind them, I feel a strange sense of emptiness.</p><p>Without even realizing it, we have become trapped inside an invisible ecosystem where our illness, our ignorance, and our debt serve as the primary fuel for the immense wealth of a select few.</p><p>Companies like BlackRock or Vanguard are not extraterrestrial beings. They are flawless systems built by exceptionally smart and shrewd human beings. They know precisely how to leverage human psychology, legal loopholes, and market gaps to expand their empires. They also know exactly how to keep everyday people under the illusion of choice, even when every single path ultimately leads right back to the very same corporate monopoly.</p><div><hr></div><p>I strongly believe that we should never accept any system blindly. Whenever you use a new financial service, or whenever you witness the dominance of a massive corporate monopoly, you should ask yourself: what is the true motive behind this? Are they genuinely working to make your life easier, or are they luring you into a subtle trap from which escape is nearly impossible? As a conscious citizen and an intelligent investor, you must understand these invisible mechanisms of the market.</p><p>I have a single primary reason for sharing this lengthy and deep analysis with you. I want you to live not merely as an ordinary consumer, but to clearly grasp the real intent behind every corporate move. Every financial decision in your life should remain entirely in your own hands&#8212;not dictated by the invisible hand of some &#8220;Big Three.&#8221; I realize that taking in all of this for the first time might be a lot to digest, as this reality starkly contradicts the economic education we were taught growing up. But just as closing your eyes does not stop a storm, ignoring the market system does not shield you from its impact.</p><p>I would love to hear your thoughts on this entire ecosystem and corporate monopoly. Do you believe the economy around us is also gradually moving toward a monopoly where we will be left with no financial freedom? Share your thoughts and analyses with me.</p><p>Let us all strive to become sharp analysts of information rather than remaining blind consumers of it. In this complex modern world, awareness and accurate knowledge are our single most powerful tools against these massive, invisible corporate behemoths. So, sharpen your financial intelligence, and always learn to question.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

But as a macro-analyst, when you peek into the core server room of the Matrix, a chill will run down your spine. Because what Big Tech companies (Google, OpenAI, Meta) are doing today in the air-conditioned rooms of Silicon Valley is literally the modern and digital version of burning the &#8216;Library of Alexandria.&#8217;</p><p>They are destroying thousands of years of human physical knowledge forever under the guise of training AI. And this entire project is such a meticulous, cold-blooded crime that knowing about it will make you lose sleep.</p><p>If we look at independent digital libraries like the Internet Archive, we can see how they operate. They scan pages with extreme care&#8212;page by page&#8212;using robotic arms or human hands. Their objective is to meticulously preserve the physical or original copy of the book while creating a digital version for the world.</p><p>But Big Tech companies don&#8217;t have that kind of time. They are locked in a blind race to build Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)&#8212;a synthetic deity. To feed their algorithms, they need trillions upon trillions of tokens or words overnight. As a result, they care nothing for preserving physical books. They are buying up thousands of rare, invaluable books and feeding them straight under guillotine machines.</p><p>Just as human heads were severed by guillotines during the French Revolution, sharp blades are being used here to cut off the spines of these books. With this, the physical existence of the book is permanently destroyed as its pages separate. These shredded pages are then fed into high-speed scanner feeders to process hundreds of pages per minute, and once scanned, the physical paper is tossed straight into the trash. In short, once a book is converted into data, its physical existence is literally murdered.</p><p>Now, you might wonder: why are they destroying the books? If they wanted to, couldn&#8217;t they just rebind the pages after scanning and keep them? This is precisely where the most terrifying psychology of the corporate matrix lies.</p><p>The majority of the millions of books Big Tech companies are using to train their AI are copyrighted. They haven&#8217;t asked for permission from authors, nor have they paid a single cent in royalties. It is the single largest intellectual heist in human history. Now, if they were to keep the physical copies in their possession, a police raid or an audit team could catch them red-handed at any time with proof that they stole a specific edition of a specific author&#8217;s book.</p><p>But what if you burn or destroy the book immediately after scanning it? Then no evidence remains at the crime scene. Once the physical copy is destroyed, proving legally where that specific data was stolen from becomes almost impossible. It&#8217;s just like a murder mystery where the killer disposes of the body. They are stealing knowledge and enjoying legal immunity due to the absence of evidence.</p><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;3c28328e-ae91-45a3-af76-bc6a3e6fd973&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;The Rothschilds have been in control of the world for a very long time, their tentacles reaching into many aspects of our daily lives, as is documented in the following timeline.&quot;,&quot;cta&quot;:null,&quot;showBylines&quot;:true,&quot;showDescription&quot;:true,&quot;showImage&quot;:true,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;md&quot;,&quot;isEditorNode&quot;:true,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;The History of the &#8216;House of Rothschild&#8217; &quot;,&quot;publishedBylines&quot;:[{&quot;id&quot;:96788321,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;bio&quot;:&quot;Empowering you to question, learn, and take control | Email: (revealedeye@gmail.com)&quot;,&quot;photo_url&quot;:&quot;https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4ca260d4-8699-4037-a80e-838f224f9b5e_640x640.jpeg&quot;,&quot;is_guest&quot;:false,&quot;bestseller_tier&quot;:100}],&quot;post_date&quot;:&quot;2026-03-04T20:16:26.502Z&quot;,&quot;cover_image&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7e959ae5-f4ad-436f-bcde-0ce6d703bd56_1200x630.png&quot;,&quot;cover_image_alt&quot;:null,&quot;canonical_url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/p/the-history-of-the-house-of-rothschild&quot;,&quot;section_name&quot;:&quot;Exposed&quot;,&quot;video_upload_id&quot;:null,&quot;id&quot;:189893145,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;newsletter&quot;,&quot;reaction_count&quot;:207,&quot;comment_count&quot;:4,&quot;publication_id&quot;:941403,&quot;publication_name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;publication_logo_url&quot;:&quot;https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xq8z!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4c0731e9-c4c8-4eb4-bd8a-c0ce61e96bb2_640x640.png&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;youtube_url&quot;:null,&quot;show_links&quot;:null,&quot;feed_url&quot;:null}"></div><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;7f55aba4-b25c-455a-b19d-9da1afd5d59a&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;\&quot;When a society loses its moral compass, it collapses from within.\&quot; &#8211; G.K.

After that, the state would rewrite and publish history to suit its own agenda.</p><p>The matrix system is executing this exact Memory Hole project. A physical book is an unalterable truth. No hacker, no government, and no corporate algorithm can remotely erase a line from a printed book sitting on your shelf. It is an independent entity existing beyond the control of the matrix.</p><p>However, when all physical books are destroyed and converted purely into digital data or AI language models, corporate servers become the sole controllers of that data.</p><p>When you ask AI for a historical truth, it will tell you only as much as its algorithm has been programmed to reveal.</p><p>With a single click, they can alter the context of any book, censor dark chapters of history, or shadowban and erase them forever. Since you will have no physical book left to cross-check, you will be forced to accept the blatant lies spouted by AI as absolute truth.</p><p>So what is the ultimate goal of the matrix system? Their ultimate goal is to permanently destroy human independent thought and free will.</p><p>The habit of reading books grants people focus, teaches critical thinking, and strengthens the brain&#8217;s neural pathways. But Big Tech doesn&#8217;t want the next generation to ever take the trouble of reading a book on their own again. They want you to completely outsource your capacity to think, your decisions, and your spirituality to AI.</p><p>If this project of destroying books succeeds, within the next few decades a generation will be born that has no direct connection to any knowledge source. AI will stand as the sole mediator between humanity and knowledge. And this AI will be operated by those Silicon Valley elites who view mankind merely as &#8220;hackable animals&#8221;&#8212;coded creatures.</p><p>Destroying your physical books means destroying your tools to think independently. The day all the world&#8217;s libraries are imprisoned within AI servers will literally mark the logical and spiritual death of humanity. Because a nation that retains no memory of its own can easily be guided into any darkness.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

Just close your eyes for a moment and think about it calmly.</p><p>From the moment we wake up every morning, we are constantly drowning in a maze of thousands of confusing choices&#8212;what to do, which career path to pursue, which skills to learn, who to befriend, and which social media trend to chase.</p><p>World-renowned author and researcher Robert Greene has explained this severe disorientation in our lives from an extraordinary psychological perspective. He points out that the lives of other wild animals on Earth are actually quite simple and hassle-free.</p><p>A tiger, bird, or deer does not wake up every morning suffering from any philosophical dilemma. Nature has wired them with perfect instincts or primal drives deeply embedded in their genes or DNA; they are born knowing exactly when to look for food, when to sleep, and when to raise their young.</p><p>They do not have to make any extra decisions.</p><p>But as humans, we must navigate every single day relying on our own logic, power of thought, and free will. This limitless freedom of ours often becomes the cause of the greatest mental burden, indecision, and paralysis in our lives.</p><p>In today&#8217;s digital age, the society around us and the internet serve as an endless factory of distraction. You log into Facebook, and with one click, you see someone making a fortune through dropshipping; with another click, you see someone landing a highly paid job by learning AI; and then on YouTube, you see someone achieving success through travel vlogging.</p><p>Our subconscious mind then becomes completely disoriented.</p><p>According to Robert Greene, this instant thrill and aimless clicking on social media is like excess sugar. Just as excessive sweets slowly poison our teeth and bloodstream, aimless social media scrolling silently rots away our capacity for deep focus, mental concentration, and cognitive power.</p><p>The only psychological way to permanently escape this self-destructive mental decay and disorientation is to build a powerful &#8220;Inner Radar&#8221; or anchor within your own mind.</p><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;121ed4bf-b370-44f7-9ccf-659fa6ede576&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Let&#8217;s first wake up and smell the reality&#8230;that the deck is stacked, everything is rigged, and they are out to get you.&quot;,&quot;cta&quot;:null,&quot;showBylines&quot;:true,&quot;showDescription&quot;:true,&quot;showImage&quot;:true,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;md&quot;,&quot;isEditorNode&quot;:true,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;How to Beat The System!&quot;,&quot;publishedBylines&quot;:[{&quot;id&quot;:96788321,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;bio&quot;:&quot;Empowering you to question, learn, and take control | Email: (revealedeye@gmail.com)&quot;,&quot;photo_url&quot;:&quot;https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4ca260d4-8699-4037-a80e-838f224f9b5e_640x640.jpeg&quot;,&quot;is_guest&quot;:false,&quot;bestseller_tier&quot;:100}],&quot;post_date&quot;:&quot;2024-10-04T17:21:24.446Z&quot;,&quot;cover_image&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/8ef3430d-38f8-47ee-833f-3fff1dca5ad2_940x788.png&quot;,&quot;cover_image_alt&quot;:null,&quot;canonical_url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/p/how-to-beat-the-system&quot;,&quot;section_name&quot;:&quot;Resist&quot;,&quot;video_upload_id&quot;:null,&quot;id&quot;:149806283,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;newsletter&quot;,&quot;reaction_count&quot;:114,&quot;comment_count&quot;:2,&quot;publication_id&quot;:941403,&quot;publication_name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;publication_logo_url&quot;:&quot;https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xq8z!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4c0731e9-c4c8-4eb4-bd8a-c0ce61e96bb2_640x640.png&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;youtube_url&quot;:null,&quot;show_links&quot;:null,&quot;feed_url&quot;:null}"></div><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;6f1bead5-04a2-4543-8e9d-d42404a7ff59&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;Most people don&#8217;t realize that chemotherapy didn&#8217;t originate in medicine&#8230;It came from chemical weapons.

Then, if a friend invites you to go hang out aimlessly somewhere, or if you come across a flashy get-rich-quick scheme, your inner radar will instantly flash a sharp warning: No! This activity does not align with my ultimate life goal, therefore it is simply a harmful trap for me.</p><p>Robert Greene reminds us that human life is incredibly short. In the blink of an eye, the youth of one&#8217;s twenties slips away, and a person reaches their sixties or seventies. In their youth, people subconsciously believe they have infinite time on their hands, but in reality, the fierce current of time melts away like ice.</p><p>Looking at real life, you will see that 99 percent of people in offices or businesses spend their entire lives merely reacting to others. Confused by the formulas imposed by society and family, they end up as pawns on someone else&#8217;s chessboard. But successful strategists like Robert Greene possess a sense of &#8220;Supreme Priority.&#8221; They know exactly where their true destination lies, which is why they ruthlessly and instantly cut out all the cheap drama and unnecessary controversies along the way.</p><p>In the game of power, strategy, and practical leadership, no opponent can ever easily distract or trap a person whose inner radar is crystal clear.</p><p>It is very easy to live a distracted life, drifting along with the blind tide of the crowd. However, true human dignity, self-mastery, and power lie in recognizing one&#8217;s primal inner calling and moving forward with unwavering focus.</p><p>Starting today, shut out the unnecessary external noise and activate that inner radar&#8212;because there can be no greater self-deception and ultimate defeat than an aimless life.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

It also helps embrace what homemaking is about: being the lifeline of your home.

adding 100g flour and 100g water, then mixing well all together. Once it has doubled in size and is bubbly, it is ready to use. You can use this for anything flour based like bread, biscuits, pancakes, desserts, snacks, pastries, the options are endless!</p><p>Loaf Recipe <br>125g starter <br>300g water <br>500g flour <br>10g salt</p><ol><li><p>Combine starter and water in a glass bowl, whisk together well to create a foamy water </p></li><li><p>Add flour and salt </p></li><li><p>Mix with hands or stand mixer until a dough forms </p></li><li><p>Let it sit covered for one hour </p></li><li><p>Begin stretch and folds </p></li><li><p>Do 4 stretch and folds over 2 hours, so once every 30 minutes </p></li><li><p>After the last set, let the dough sit covered on the counter for 4-8 hours.

You can post in a local mom group and ask for a small amount of starter, and most likely someone will give you some for free!</p><p>I also recommend getting a sourdough kit. It&#8217;s not necessary but it makes it much more fun and helpful to have all the tools.

Instead, it is a machine of extremely great complexity (despite its apparently simple construction), and it is actually a kind of &#8220;overunity&#8221; machine.</p><p>Like many others of similar construction, this device was often compared to Marconi&#8217;s and similar radio transceivers, whose operations were based on classical (Hertzian) electromagnetic (EM) waves, which are described in detail by Maxwell&#8217;s equations. However, we must consider the fact that the wireless conveyance of energy Tesla sought to achieve was based on waves of a fundamentally different nature. He constantly emphasized this fact, supporting it with numerous and highly precise written arguments. One such confirmation can be found in his US patent No. 5,780 from February 19, 1900, titled &#8220;Apparatus for Transmission of Electrical Energy&#8221; /5/, where Tesla states:</p><blockquote><p>&#8220;... It is to be noted that the phenomenon here involved in the transmission of electrical energy is one of TRUE CONDUCTION AND IS NOT TO BE CONFOUNDED WITH THE PHENOMENA OF ELECTRICAL RADIATION which have heretofore been observed and which from the very nature and mode of propagation would render practically IMPOSSIBLE THE TRANSMISSION OF ANY APPRECIABLE AMOUNT OF ENERGY TO SUCH DISTANCES as are of practical importance. ...&#8221;</p></blockquote><p>As we can see, Tesla is very clear in this document and unambiguously points to the fact that his system of wireless energy transmission IS NOT based on classical EM waves. Therefore, the persistent attempts to explain the operation of his machines using Maxwell&#8217;s principles are difficult to understand. These principles involve the propagation of (Hertzian) EM waves, which have limitations&#8212;such as attenuation according to the inverse-square law&#8212;that Nikola Tesla was undoubtedly well aware of.</p><p>All analyses of Tesla&#8217;s achievements and the operating principles of his devices (including their functionality and efficiency) have been conducted from the perspective of scientifically valid theories. However, these theories do not account for the phenomenon of Tesla&#8217;s non-Hertzian waves, which do not even exist within those frameworks (although, according to our idea published in /6/, this possibility can be accepted in the form of an evanescent mode wave, or &#8220;Maxwell&#8221; wave with a negative wave number). Consequently, the conclusions drawn from such analyses are predictably aligned with those limitations. To put it mildly, they are imprecise.</p><p>An example is given in /1/, which concludes that energy weakens according to the square of the distance (as with classical EM waves). This would result in very limited energy transfer&#8212;restricted to short distances and/or small amounts of power. However, this is incorrect concerning Teslian waves because these waves, on their journey from &#8220;emitter&#8221; to &#8220;receiver,&#8221; can be multiply amplified through the effect of a multiple &#8220;feed&#8221; of a stationary wave. This is the exact same effect Tesla used in his &#8220;extra coil&#8221; to achieve a voltage of about 12 million volts!</p><p>From the perspective of the Energy Density Quantification (EDQ) model (as indicated in /6/), Nikola Tesla&#8217;s non-Hertzian waves are entirely plausible as existing Stable Objects of Unity, much like all other scientifically known objects with corpuscular or wave natures. Furthermore, the expected characteristics of Tesla&#8217;s waves proposed by the EDQ model are completely in accordance with the characteristics of &#8220;unknown waves.&#8221; These waves possess unusual features detected in &#8220;unconventional&#8221; experiments using devices from &#8220;alternative&#8221; physics, popularly known as &#8220;overunity&#8221; machines.</p><p>According to data from Tesla&#8217;s Colorado Springs diary (/3/), the final version of this &#8220;transformer,&#8221; in contrast to most of his other discoveries, was achieved only after a number of subsequent experiments and many alterations. It is well known that Tesla usually imagined his devices first; he &#8220;saw&#8221; them in the smallest detail. He could mentally follow and analyze their operation, perfecting them in his mind before actually building them (sometimes years later) without the need for physical corrections. However, his machine (the &#8220;transformer&#8221;) from Colorado Springs proved to be an exception. The numerous modifications and alterations he made during the construction process indicate that he envisioned an EXCEPTIONALLY COMPLICATED machine, despite its apparent simplicity. He ultimately built a device with a far greater degree of complexity than the numerous other devices he constructed with ease. The question that naturally follows&#8212;&#8221;Did Nikola Tesla achieve his goal after all?&#8221;&#8212;remains without a reliable answer. His experiments with wireless energy transfer were halted in their final phase (the monumental tower on Long Island was never finished), and his other similar experiments (for example, those involving radiant energy) were left with very little documentation.</p><p>Whatever the case may be, our opinion is that the operation of Tesla&#8217;s &#8220;transformer&#8221; can hardly be explained using classical, conventional methods. It is truly more than tragic, as Kenneth Corum states (/7/), that many highly competent, experienced, and educated people use constructions with concentrated parameters, and even inductors, calling them Tesla coils. In doing so, they allude to their interaction with classical EM waves (which, for mainstream science, are the only existing Hertzian waves). Furthermore, Tesla&#8217;s &#8220;extra coil&#8221;&#8212;a quarter-wave resonator that HOLDS the energy (acting as an antenna that does not emit)&#8212;enables a huge INCREASE in voltage (or &#8220;pressure,&#8221; as Tesla called it) through the voltage standing wave ratio, provided the spiral coil is properly adjusted. Yet, to this day, for many people it represents just an &#8220;(un)usual coil.&#8221; They also fail to pay attention to the fact that eliminating large amounts of losses (due to radiation or &#8220;prematurely&#8221; emitted streamers&#8212;which are actually &#8220;mistakes&#8221; in the process of wireless energy transmission caused by poor construction) can be achieved by simply tuning the coefficient of mutual inductance with the endurance of the spark. Tesla stated this very clearly in his patents. These are probably the main reasons why no one to this day has ever achieved (in the sense of operational efficiency, not the length of the &#8220;spark&#8221;) results that are even close to the ones Tesla achieved in his time.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

Amplifier&#8221;</figcaption></figure></div><p>Along with this line of thinking, there is also evidence that the operation of Tesla&#8217;s transformer was often accompanied by a series of unusual effects. Ball lightning (probably the most interesting of them all) was actually an obstruction for Tesla in his work because it damaged and destroyed his equipment. He was forced to research it thoroughly and tried to control it. Although there are various scientific interpretations of this phenomenon, its &#8220;structure&#8221; and mechanism of genesis are not clearly defined yet, so its appearance is more or less random, even today.</p><p>As we shall see in the following section, Tesla&#8217;s &#8220;transformer,&#8221; from an EDQ model point of view, has ALL its key characteristics completely identical to those of &#8220;overunity&#8221; machines. Given this fact, it is completely justified to expect effects similar to those these devices exhibit in their operation. Thus, the appearance of ball lightning heavily strengthens our basic idea that Tesla&#8217;s &#8220;transformer&#8221; cannot be described in any way by the classical concept of a transformer. This is because Tesla INTENTIONALLY WEAKENS the mutual inductance with the attached coil, which is the exact OPPOSITE of the classical understanding of energy conveyance efficiency by induction (the main characteristic of a standard transformer). Furthermore, we must admit that the concepts of radiation and standing waves&#8212;the true characteristics of this device&#8212;are much more appropriate to the concept of a &#8220;Magnifying Amplifier&#8221; that Tesla used, rather than the term &#8220;transformer&#8221; unfortunately used so often these days.</p><p>Taking all of these facts into consideration, as well as the characteristics of Tesla&#8217;s waves (object k = +9 in the EDQ model), let us try to analyze the electro-mechanical structure of Tesla&#8217;s transformer and point out their harmonized interaction&#8212;their &#8220;resonant&#8221; relationship. In this way, our assumption presented in /1/ (that Tesla&#8217;s waves are the ONES that carry &#8220;free&#8221; energy) is not just amplified; it also points to the possibility and very high probability that Tesla&#8217;s Magnifying Amplifier could be some kind of &#8220;free&#8221; energy converter!</p><p>All analyses of the operation of Tesla&#8217;s transformer done so far have been made by various authors based on a classical scientific approach, covering the calculations of a series of parameters&#8212;for instance: spiral inductance, self-capacitance, the mutual inductance coefficient, and so on. In a technical-mathematical sense, they are completely correct. Unfortunately, as a necessary consequence of this perspective, some conclusions are not in accordance with the ideas and experimental results Nikola Tesla actually attained. Certain limitations, classically explained by the theory of relativity (for instance, the speed of light postulate), prevent a &#8220;multidimensional&#8221; understanding of the &#8220;geometry&#8221; of Tesla&#8217;s device and, consequently, its higher-dimensional interaction &#8220;structures.&#8221; In our opinion, this is the decisive factor behind the misinterpretations and lack of understanding of real energetic transformations globally, especially in states of &#8220;spacetime&#8221; deformation (extremely strong fields, short-timed impulses, etc.). Because of this classical framework, the operation of Tesla&#8217;s transformer remains unclear, wireless energy conveyance is deemed inefficient (or impossible), and many of Tesla&#8217;s other ideas are simply dismissed as absurdity. The EDQ model, however, shows us entirely opposite possibilities.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

energy conveyance satisfy some sort of &#8220;mechanical&#8221; resonance in addition to the &#8220;ordinary&#8221; electrical resonance (inductance and capacitance relationships). Because of this, he paid a great deal of attention to the &#8220;geometry&#8221; and structural integrity of the construction.

But the real world isn&#8217;t that simple. There are many people out there who mistake your simplicity for weakness. They don&#8217;t appreciate your virtues; instead, they calculate how to use your good nature for their own selfish interests.</p><p>If you lay yourself out like an open book in front of people with a predatory mindset, you will get hurt time and time again.</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

If you don&#8217;t respect yourself, nobody else will. Therefore, to protect yourself, you need to understand the rules of this psychological game.</p><p>This isn&#8217;t about deceiving anyone, but rather saving yourself from becoming someone else&#8217;s puppet.</p><p>For those who want to make others dance to their tune, their biggest weapon is your reaction. They cleverly try to provoke you or strike at you under the guise of sweet words.</p><p>They want you to react, get emotional, or over-explain to prove your innocence. And that is exactly where they win.</p><p>Because the moment you become emotional, you fall right into their trap.</p><p>The most effective way out of this is to become completely unresponsive. If someone provokes you, show no reaction. No anger, no smile, no annoyance. Just look at them with a calm gaze. Your silence will act as a mirror, making them uncomfortable as they are forced to see their true reflection.</p><p>These kinds of people try to create a false sense of urgency or rush around you. They want you to agree with them or make a decision instantly. They know that if you take even a little time to think, you will figure out their true intentions. So, they don&#8217;t give you time to process. </p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=213335940&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=213335940"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><p>A great way to handle this situation is to deliberately take your time. If someone demands an answer right now, don&#8217;t respond immediately. Let a few hours or a whole day pass. The wall of silence you build will create massive anxiety within them. They will begin to realize that their control over you is slipping away.</p><p>Your time is strictly your personal property. It is crucial to shatter the misconception that anyone can just access you whenever it suits their convenience.

First, they inflate your ego with excessive flattery so that you feel a sense of obligation towards them. After that, they easily get you to do their bidding. At other times, they speak in a way that makes it seem like you are committing a massive crime by not helping them.</p><p>In both of these cases, you have to turn the tables.</p><p>If someone praises you too much, don&#8217;t melt; just casually say thank you and change the subject. Make it clear that you don&#8217;t need their validation to recognize your own worth.</p><p>And if someone tries to guilt-trip you, there is no need to give lengthy explanations. Calmly say no.</p><p>It is foolish to tell people everything about yourself.</p><p>When you talk about your future plans or weaknesses, you hand over the opportunity for others to control you. Make yourself a bit mysterious; there is no need to give a clear answer to everything. If someone asks about something you don&#8217;t want to share, give a very vague reply.</p><p>This ambiguity of yours will act as a wall against them. They won&#8217;t be able to figure you out, and it is impossible to control someone who cannot be fully understood. In any situation, the most powerful person is the one who has no fear of losing anything.</p><p>Opportunists always think that you are dependent on them.</p><p>They believe that you cannot do without them, and they exploit this fear to keep you under psychological pressure. But the moment you shatter this illusion of theirs, they will lose their power.</p><p>But if you can reach a mental state where you are willing to walk away from everything at any given moment, that will become your greatest strength. This doesn&#8217;t mean threatening to end relationships over every little thing. Rather, your demeanor should carry a calm confidence that proves you are with someone because you choose to be, not out of any obligation.</p><p>Sometimes, the smartest thing to do is to play the fool.</p><p>You might perfectly understand the game the other person is playing, yet you pretend to understand nothing. They will think they are making a fool out of you, but in reality, you are observing them. Once you reach this mental level, no one will ever be able to blackmail you again.</p><p>This freedom is the greatest victory of your life.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.

Every day we scroll and think about how modern the world is becoming, but in reality, some dark realities are being pushed right before our eyes that no one wants to talk about.</p><p>Today I am going to talk about something that, after hearing it, will completely change your perspective on the world around you. Recently, I watched an episode of <em>The Shawn Ryan Show</em> where an exorcist, or a specialist in driving away ghosts, appeared. At first, it might seem like just a discussion about some horror movie plot, but believe me, some psychological and sociological dark realities were discussed here that are connected to our daily lives. </p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

But the question spinning in my head was: are these cults or dark practices really just fairy tales, or is there a terrifying master plan behind them?</p><p>When I started analyzing the whole matter, a pattern became very clear to me. You must have seen the opening ceremony of the last Olympics. A massive pentagram and all kinds of strange symbolisms were displayed there. Even before that, at the Winter Olympics, there was a mockery of the Last Supper. And think about the opening of that famous tunnel in Switzerland as well&#8212;it was literally a dark ritual.</p><p>Now the question is, are the people who organize these events crazy, or are they doing it on purpose? That guest on the podcast made a brilliant point. He said that Satan or demons are showmen; they want people to look at them. They love to manifest their power and influence right before people&#8217;s eyes.</p><p>This dark symbolism displayed in opening ceremonies or major global events is called &#8216;revealing the method.&#8217; This means the people controlling these systems are openly showing us their beliefs. They want us to know that these things are real, but they present them in a way that leaves us confused.</p><p>The first time we see something bizarre like the Swiss tunnel opening, we just think it&#8217;s sick or weird. But if they keep doing it over and over, after a while, it becomes normalized for us. And that is their biggest psychological game.</p><p>The normalization process is working very rapidly in our society. First, a heinous thing is released into the market under the name of art or freedom of expression. Then a controversy is created around it, people talk about it, and gradually it becomes a part of pop culture.</p><p>A very serious topic was raised in that podcast: whether pedophilia will become normalized in the future. If you pay attention, when cases like Epstein or Diddy come to light, the involvement of many high-level people is revealed. These are projected in such a way that an idea is created in the human subconscious mind that doing such things is perhaps completely normal once you reach a high position or become powerful.</p><p>Let me give you a real example! When the Epstein files leaked last February, a friend of mine told me, &#8216;When you get to a position like theirs, you&#8217;ll do these things too! Everyone does these things! Even I would!&#8217; She was a female! Later, when I asked her&#8212;admitting that since I&#8217;m a guy, maybe it&#8217;s common to think like that, but how could <em>she</em> think that? She&#8217;s a woman!&#8212;she explained her perspective to me with her own reasoning. Hearing that, I was completely shocked!</p><p>Anyway, the most terrifying thing is that they are trying to defend these heinous crimes from a psychological angle. A movement is underway to try to remove pedophilia from the list of mental disorders or the DSM. Because once it can be removed as a disorder, it will be easier to take it off the list of crimes as well. They want people to eventually think that this is perhaps just another normal thing.</p><p>It is literally a flawless plan to break down our social structure.</p><p>The podcast talked about the concept of generational possession or carrying dark energy ancestrally. We have heard of generational trauma, where the psychological issues of parents are passed down to children.</p><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;4bc66be3-5760-42a6-a5fb-99ac1051add0&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;The Rothschilds have been in control of the world for a very long time, their tentacles reaching into many aspects of our daily lives, as is documented in the following timeline.&quot;,&quot;cta&quot;:null,&quot;showBylines&quot;:true,&quot;showDescription&quot;:true,&quot;showImage&quot;:true,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;md&quot;,&quot;isEditorNode&quot;:true,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;The History of the &#8216;House of Rothschild&#8217; &quot;,&quot;publishedBylines&quot;:[{&quot;id&quot;:96788321,&quot;name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;bio&quot;:&quot;Empowering you to question, learn, and take control | Email: (revealedeye@gmail.com)&quot;,&quot;photo_url&quot;:&quot;https://bucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/4ca260d4-8699-4037-a80e-838f224f9b5e_640x640.jpeg&quot;,&quot;is_guest&quot;:false,&quot;bestseller_tier&quot;:100}],&quot;post_date&quot;:&quot;2026-03-04T20:16:26.502Z&quot;,&quot;cover_image&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/7e959ae5-f4ad-436f-bcde-0ce6d703bd56_1200x630.png&quot;,&quot;cover_image_alt&quot;:null,&quot;canonical_url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/p/the-history-of-the-house-of-rothschild&quot;,&quot;section_name&quot;:&quot;Exposed&quot;,&quot;video_upload_id&quot;:null,&quot;id&quot;:189893145,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;newsletter&quot;,&quot;reaction_count&quot;:199,&quot;comment_count&quot;:4,&quot;publication_id&quot;:941403,&quot;publication_name&quot;:&quot;RevealedEye&quot;,&quot;publication_logo_url&quot;:&quot;https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!xq8z!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fbucketeer-e05bbc84-baa3-437e-9518-adb32be77984.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4c0731e9-c4c8-4eb4-bd8a-c0ce61e96bb2_640x640.png&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;youtube_url&quot;:null,&quot;show_links&quot;:null,&quot;feed_url&quot;:null}"></div><p>But here it was said that there are some families that have literally been connected to dark rituals for hundreds of years. They knowingly impose these things on their next generations. Such ritualistic abuse is inflicted on young children that anyone&#8217;s skin would crawl upon hearing it. As a result, a dark psychology is created within those children, and when they grow up, they do the exact same things to their succeeding generation. This is not a random occurrence, but rather a well-planned cycle that they have been continuing for ages.</p><p>Another matter that made me think a lot is subjugation, or making a pact with the devil. Just like we see in movies where someone suddenly signs with blood, the reality is not that simple. It is a massive psychological process.</p><p>So why do people gravitate towards these dark things? Because they see that many people joining this cult are gaining power, fame, and wealth. But there is a massive loophole here. Satan or demons cannot actually guarantee or give anyone anything, because ultimate power is solely in the hands of the Creator.</p><p>Those who go toward these dark pacts are psychologically manipulated. They get trapped in an illusion where they think they are becoming powerful, but in reality, they are destroying their own souls. And those at the top level of society want to spread this darkness across the entire world. They want ordinary people to gradually get used to this dark vibe as well.</p><p>This is why the media and entertainment industry is being used so extensively. When you watch a movie or a music video, you might just feel entertained, but your subconscious mind is picking up on a lot. They use symbolism that manipulates your brain. They want you to forget the difference between right and wrong. When bad things are glamorized, the young generation gets attracted to them very easily.</p><p>From my perspective, this is a global mind-control project. They are reducing our attention spans and destroying our critical thinking abilities so that we accept whatever we see as the truth. They are bombarding us with so much information and dark news that we are no longer shocked by anything. We are turning into a traumatized society where even heinous crimes feel normal to us.</p><p>But this is where we need to stand back up. Those of us who can analyze, who can connect the dots, have the responsibility to break these illusions. Stop blindly believing what you see. Use your critical thinking. Question what is being fed into your brain in the name of pop culture. When you see a heinous subject being heavily glamorized in the media, understand that there is a dark agenda behind it.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tartarian Empire — The

as the sudden disappearance of <a href="https://blogs.loc.gov/maps/2025/06/tracking-tartary-on-western-maps/">Tartaria</a>, or Grand Tartary, as we may call it. Between the 1500s and the 1800s, many maps created by European cartographers labeled a large territory between Eastern Europe and the Pacific Ocean as Tartaria.</p><p>However, this was not a small land, but an empire that was so huge that it ruled Asia for centuries. And all in a flash it disappeared. The modern maps do not recognize its presence anymore, and its name is seldom uttered in the textbooks of history.</p><p>The question lingers: how is it possible to have so completely erased an entire empire? Was it just a mistaken idea, a designation of nomadic tribes abandoned? Or is there some higher motive, some cover-up to conceal a civilization of knowledge and power that would shake the keystones of our modern world?</p><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">This Substack is reader-supported.

The uniformity is impressive, be it called Independent Tartary, Chinese Tartary, or Russian Tartary, the territory was taking a central position in the European mind.</p><p>However, during the 19th century, the name disappeared virtually overnight. Tartaria was not disappearing slowly as empires tend to, but vanished as though wiped out by an invisible hand. This abrupt omission is disturbing.</p><p>Unless Tartaria is simply an esoteric allusion to tribes or territories, how is it that Tartaria took over maps centuries before it was so carefully expunged? To conspiracy theorists, it is clear that somebody has determined that the world should forget Tartaria.</p><h3><strong>The architecture that shouldn&#8217;t exist</strong></h3><p>Tartaria <a href="https://www.discovermagazine.com/what-is-the-lost-empire-of-tartaria-45702">was disappearing</a> just as there was an inquisitive burst of architecture in Europe and America. Monumental buildings were suddenly erected in large cities in the late 1800s and early 1900s.</p><p>Government halls, train stations, and exhibition centers, buildings so luxurious and persistent that they are still impressive to engineers today. Worse still, they were allegedly constructed with remarkable speed, sometimes in a few years.</p><p>Consider the <a href="https://www.architecture.org/online-resources/architecture-encyclopedia/worlds-columbian-exposition-of-1893">Columbian Exposition of Chicago</a> of 1893. Official estimates show that in two years, over 200 neoclassical buildings had been built on a size of over 600 acres. One of them was the Manufacturers and Liberal Arts Building, the biggest structure in the world at that time.</p><p>Officially, it explains that these were temporary structures that were composed of plaster and fiber. But on photographs, we can see huge, detailed buildings that do not appear to be temporary.

The windows are placed on the sidewalks. There are doorways leading to basements. There are whole first floors that are covered by modern streets.</p><p>Historians of the mainstream explain this by the gradual increase in street levels due to the repaving of streets and new infrastructure being installed on top of the old base. But Tartaria scholars are suggesting something more extreme. It is the <a href="https://www.storytel.com/tv/books/the-mud-flood-hypothesis-the-history-of-the-conspiracy-theory-about-the-global-empire-of-tartaria-2127827">Great Mud Flood</a>.</p><p>According to them, in the 1800s, there was a devastating geologic phenomenon that covered large parts of the earth with mud and debris, covering cities and civilizations.</p><p>The theory says that this catastrophe had swallowed a large part of Tartaria, and only the superior stories of their magnificent buildings stood in sight. The well-known Underground cities of Seattle, New York, and so on are given as evidence all over the world.</p><p>To believers, they are not the weird city characteristics or the product of long evolution, but testimony to a cataclysm that rebuilt the world and covered the Tartarian empire with heaps of soil.</p><div class="digest-post-embed" data-attrs="{&quot;nodeId&quot;:&quot;20ebc273-7118-47e0-916e-a250a24e2939&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;The &#8220;Illuminati&#8221; (sometimes referred to as &#8220;Globalists&#8221; or the &#8220;World Revolutionary Movement&#8221;) are an evil group of elite and powerful people, who are rarely seen in the public eye.

World Expos, the solution, as the theorists believed, was straightforward, i.e., World fairs.</p><p>The major exhibitions of the late 19th century and the early 20th century were a two-fold end. Their outward appearance was a glorification of industrial advancement. However, secretly they served to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2021-04-27/inside-architecture-s-wildest-conspiracy-theory">recycle Tartarian architecture</a>, make it look like new wonders, and demolish it at a convenient later date.</p><p>Suspicion is stimulated by the absence of construction photographs. Whereas there are numerous records of completed constructions along with their demolition, there is evidently little reference to the process of building itself.</p><p>This to the skeptic indicates that there was but little to be built to photograph, but only restorations of old Tartarian buildings, which were hastily knocked down at the dissolution of the fairs.</p><p>The cycle of construction, exhibition, and destruction goes well with the history of the disappearance of a civilization. Tartaria had to be covered with mud, but its visible residues had to be discredited and dismantled.</p><h3><strong>The star forts and resonance chambers</strong></h3><p>These star-shaped fortifications can be seen all over Europe, Asia, and the Americas. <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/photo/2023/11/photos-star-forts/675936/">Mainstream historians</a> refer to them as military designs, geometrical patterns that were intended to resist cannon fire.</p><p>But this is not what Tartaria scientists observe. The mathematical accuracy of star forts, they say, indicates not defense but manipulation of energy. Along with the acoustic wonder of cathedrals and government buildings, the places where the voice echoes in hearing the strange things, the image becomes even more bizarre.</p><p>These were not the cursory sprouts of taste or military demands. <mark data-color="#ecfeff" style="background-color: rgb(236, 254, 255); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">They were resonance chambers and nodes of energy, an element of a worldwide network of free energy which the Tartarians had command over long before industrial society.</mark></p><p>In the event that this were so, it would be understandable how Tartarians were able to build such large buildings in such a fast and uniform manner. Brute force could be supplanted by sound waves, frequency resonance, and electromagnetic manipulation to define what can be achieved by engineering to date, which is still a mystery.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=212383261&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=212383261"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><h3><strong>Giants of Tartaria</strong></h3><p>Among the most disputable arguments of the Tartarian mystery is that their <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/exploration-mysteries-tartarian-empire-151605975.html">inhabitants were giants</a>. The percentage of the most ancient buildings looks odd to normal human beings. The doorways rise to inconceivable heights.</p><p>Staircases appear to be made to suit legs that are longer than ours. The late 1800s furniture, beds, and chairs are comically oversized. Giant skeletons were discovered in North America and other places, <a href="https://www.ancient-origins.net/unexplained-phenomena/giants-north-america-005196">commonly reported</a> in the newspapers of the 1800s and early 1900s.</p><p>Giants appear in the legends of all peoples all over the world, such as the Titans of Greek mythology, the Nephilim of the Bible, the Norse sagas, and the folklore of Native Americans. Are these myths the remains of the real Tartarian people, wiped out with their empire?</p><h3><strong>Final thoughts</strong></h3><p>The mystery of Tartaria persists since it lies at the border between what actually happened and what might have happened. Maps prove that it existed centuries before, and it was not until overnight that it disappeared.</p><p>Architecture is a source of frustration concerning the time frame of construction and lost technology. The mud flood, star forts, resonance chambers, and giants are theories explaining the strangely compelling explanations to the anomalies left behind in a speculative manner.</p><p>It is not yet clear whether Tartaria was a forgotten confederation of tribes, a misinterpreted geographical term, or a highly developed empire wiped out by intentional obliteration, but the thing is that something of importance has been concealed.</p><p>Each covered floor, each destroyed exposition house, each killed skeleton contributes to the feeling that history is not what it appears. Finally, Tartaria is an invitation to doubt the narratives that we are being told. Were they both a misapprehension or the biggest cover-up in human history?</p><p>Until the signs of Tartaria reappear, as represented in the remains of earlier ages seated beneath our cities and archives, the mystery of Tartaria will perpetually hover at the fringes of our maps and of our imaginations.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>This article was written by <a href="https://medium.com/@talukdar_azanta">Azanta</a>, who is a Medium writer, also a mother, wife, and daughter.

Put simply, the more heavy metals you have inside you, the more susceptible you are to oxidation and damage from electromagnetic radiation. Basically through certain frequencies (5G, 6G and the emergency alert systems they&#8217;re rolling out across the globe), the metals in your body become like foil in a microwave. Think about that for a moment...</p><p>Sounds like something you&#8217;d like to avoid right?</p><p>And when it comes to the covid jabs, the vaccines (mrna varieties) contained lipid nanoparticles disguised under the term &#8216;hydrogel&#8217;. These nanoparticles contained pathogens with things like ecoli marburg, ebola staphylococcus and brewers disease just to name a few. And they were not only injected by the jabs, but the PCR swab tests also.</p><p>We know that an 18 gigahertz signal, when pulsed for 60 seconds, 3 different times, activates the lipid nanoparticles. This would mean those harmful pathogens will be released into peoples bodies.</p><p>EBS alerts are imminent (emergency broadcasting system), and it&#8217;s my guess that these alerts will come in the form of 18 gigahertz signals - 1 minute long, three different times. I&#8217;m not an expert, this is just my guess so take it with a grain of salt, but remember that you cannot trust what they tell you! They also said (and still claim online) that the covid vaccine was safe for pregnancy, and it has since been revealed in court that they knew all along it would increase the risk of miscarriage.</p><p>It sounds scary, but there is nothing that they have done to you that cannot be undone! And you can take action to protect yourself moving forward.</p><h3>Heavy Metal Exposure</h3><p>You can&#8217;t realistically eliminate exposure to heavy metals completely, but you can limit it.</p><h4>Water:</h4><p>Your tap water has lead in it that leaches from old pipes and arsenic can be present in groundwater. Industrial runoff can also pollute natural water bodies.</p><p><strong>What can you do about it</strong></p><p>Having tank water will decrease your exposure, but not completely. Filtering your water is the best option for both tap and tank water. Use water filters that are certified to remove lead, arsenic, and other contaminants.</p><h4>Food:</h4><p>Predatory fish like tuna and shark contain high levels of mercury, rice can contain arsenic, some canned foods are lined with materials containing lead or BPA, and even produce like fruit and veg can contain heavy metals due to the pesticides they are sprayed with.</p><p><strong>What can you do about it</strong></p><ul><li><p>Limit your consumption of foods that contain high amounts of metal, especially predatory fish. </p></li><li><p>When you do cook with rice, rinse it first. </p></li><li><p>Always rinse your fruit and vegetables before consuming, and buy organic where you can.</p></li></ul><h4>Air:</h4><p>We are literally sprayed with these metals from the sky, but factories and power plants also release heavy metals into the atmosphere, as does traffic pollution.</p><p><strong>What can you do about it</strong></p><p>Move away from populated areas. Unfortunately there are no two ways about this one. More densely populated areas like cities and busy suburbs are going to harbour more risk than rural areas where there are less people, less cars, less industrial activity and less chemtrails.</p><h4>Products:</h4><p>Many everyday things that we use contain high levels of heavy metals. Deodorant is one of the worst! Make-up, dental fillings, wine, certain creams, aluminium cookware, phones, fluorescent lightbulbs and if your home was built before the 1970&#8217;s even the paint on your walls is harmful.</p><p><strong>What can you do about it</strong></p><ul><li><p>Ensure your deodorant doesn&#8217;t contain aluminium. Most deodorants that simply mask odour are ok, but &#8216;antiperspirants&#8217; which prevent sweating contain aluminium. Read the ingredients! </p></li><li><p>Throw away any aluminium cookware and replace with cast iron and stainless steel pots and pans. </p></li><li><p>Opt for BPA free plastics and natural alternatives. </p></li><li><p>Try to limit your phone/device use, the more you touch it the more metals you are absorbing. You could also opt to use a touch screen pen. </p></li><li><p>If your home was painted with lead based paint, have it re-painted (the process is called encapsulation)</p></li></ul><h3>How To Detox Heavy Metals &amp; Nanoparticles</h3><p>Your body has natural detoxification pathways, the kidneys, liver and spleen do a great job of filtering harmful chemicals (which is why it&#8217;s vital to take good care of them by not drinking excessively and eating healthily). But certain strategies can support your bodies ability to eliminate toxins, removing any overload that your organs can&#8217;t handle alone.</p><h4>Diet:</h4><p><strong>Antioxidants:</strong> Foods high in Vitamin C, E, selenium and other antioxidants help combat oxidative stress. </p><p><strong>Fiber Rich Foods: </strong>Fruits, vegetables and whole grains aid in bowel regularity, helping to eliminate toxins. </p><p><strong>Specific Foods: </strong></p><ul><li><p>Coriander: A powerful natural chelator, it specifically helps mobilize and remove mercury, lead and aluminium from tissues. </p></li><li><p>Garlic &amp; Onion: Rich in sulfur, they bind to poisons, pathogens &amp; heavy metals and assist in eliminating them from the body. </p></li><li><p>Tomato: Rich in powerful antioxidants like vitamin C and lycophane, they support the livers ability to process and excrete toxins. </p></li><li><p>Brazil nuts: Incredibly high in selenium which has been shown to reduce and combat metal toxicity. </p></li><li><p>Berries: Packed with antioxidants. </p></li><li><p>Cruciferous Vegetables: Broccoli, cauliflower, kale &amp; brussels sprouts contain sulforaphane, a compound that enhances the boy&#8217;s natural liver detoxification enzymes. </p></li><li><p>Chlorella &amp; Spirulina: Nutrient dense algae that contain metallothionein like proteins that bind to poisons, heavy metals and pathogens and support their excretion.</p></li><li><p>Dandelion: Rich in polyphenols &amp; betacarotene, it helps protect cells from oxidation, reduce inflammation and balance hormones. The flower, leaves and root are all edible.</p></li></ul><h4><strong>Hydration:</strong></h4><p><strong>Water: </strong>Essential for flushing toxins from the body through urine and sweat. Filtered water is best.</p><h4>Lifestyle:</h4><p><strong>Fasting: </strong>They don&#8217;t want you to know this, and many influential people online have had videos on the topic removed, but fasting your body is the single best thing you can do for detoxification of the poisons they have put in our systems. See below for more information.</p><p><strong>Proper Ventilation:</strong> Ensure good airflow in your home, especially if you live in an area with high pollution or have older painted surfaces. </p><p><strong>Regular Exercise: </strong>Promotes circulation and sweating, aiding in toxin elimination.</p><p><strong>Saunas: </strong>Sweating helps your body to eliminate toxins, including nanoparticles &amp; heavy metals. </p><p><strong>Heavy Metal Detox Baths: </strong>Once a month take a detox bath. Make a soak using baking soda, epsom salts, bentonite clay, sea salt and citrus oils. </p><p><strong>Sunshine: </strong>The sun has healing and cleansing abilities. Your kidneys and liver need vitamin D to support their purifying function, melanin production acts as a natural chelator (binder), and sweating is a major cleansing tool. </p><p><strong>Leave populated areas:</strong> If you can, leave cities and busy suburban areas. If you can&#8217;t yet, make a plan to do so.</p><h4>Other tips:</h4><p><strong>SWEAT!</strong> I already mentioned it above, but i&#8217;ll say it again as it&#8217;s one of the most powerful ways to detox your body. Exercise, sunshine &amp; saunas are all amazing ways to get your body sweating out the poison.</p><p><strong>Fasting is the single most effective way to heal your body.</strong> Not only will it detox your system from heavy metals, nanoparticles and harmful pathogens, but it aids in healing sickness &amp; disease, including cancer (which is why they don&#8217;t want us to know about it). Fasting triggers &#8216;autophagy&#8217;, which is a cellular cleanup process where cells degrade and recycle damaged components. Your body literally regenerates itself. Do your own research because there are all different ways you can fast, but a simple and effective way to begin is to simply not eat anything for 16 hours. For me, that looked like eating dinner at 7pm, and then not eating again until 11am the next day. The first few days will be challenging, but your body adjusts and you will stop feeling hungry in the morning.</p><p><strong>My favourite product for aiding in detoxification is Barley Grass Juice Powder.</strong> It&#8217;s a powder that you mix with water and it&#8217;s full of super greens and antioxidants. Buy an organic one if you can.</p><p><strong>My favourite meal to cook for detoxing is a curry!</strong> I pack it with garlic, onion, tomato and ginger. Curry leaves themselves are also a fantastic binder for removing metals from the body. Best to have it with naan bread instead of rice.</p><h4>Other things to avoid:</h4><p>Drinking too much alcohol. Wine contains metals which are ok in trace amounts, but if you drink it excessively you are likely consuming a large amount of heavy metals. It&#8217;s not just wine either, your liver &amp; kidneys are your best defence and you need to look after them! Overloading them with any type of alcohol decreases their ability to filter metals from your system. </p><p>Make-up contains metals like lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury. These may not even be listed in the ingredients because they enter through contaminants. Trace amounts are ok, but if you&#8217;re wearing things like lipstick, eye shadow, blush, foundation, concealers and using skin lightening creams every single day, you could be unknowingly adding a toxic amount of metal to your system.</p><h3>Summary</h3><p>The time to start taking action on this was yesterday. I don&#8217;t share this information lightly and I&#8217;m not going to skirt around the reality - If you don&#8217;t make these changes, your life is at risk. </p><p>It&#8217;s so important to be actively detoxing these heavy metals from your system. It&#8217;s not just about removing toxins from your body, it&#8217;s about protecting yourself against frequencies that can interact with the metals and cause you harm. Don&#8217;t wait until it&#8217;s too late.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=211973844&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;button-wrapper&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary button-wrapper" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=211973844"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><h3>Limit exposure to harmful frequencies.</h3><p>Detoxing heavy metals from your body is one step, but in order to protect yourself further you need to limit your exposure to harmful frequencies that are not only intended to harm you via the metals in your system, but also to keep you scrambled, disconnected from yourself and vibrating in a low energy.</p><h4>What are they and where do they come from?</h4><p>Different frequencies impact your body in different ways. Your body, mind and even your emotions operate on specific bioelectrical frequencies. Using frequency is not a new concept, the old world used an etheric energy system. In the Tartarian days they had a blueprint for placement of resonators, cathedrals and power nodes to distribute free energy and consciousness, enhancing frequencies. Now, they&#8217;re using the same blueprint but instead of amplifying life force, they&#8217;re hijacking it. They are mimicking the blueprint using 5G towers/repeaters.</p><p>Real etheric energy doesn&#8217;t need repeaters. If you set up true resonant architecture like cathedrals and pyramids, the energy flows naturally across vast distances. 5G is a synthetic system, so it constantly loses power. That&#8217;s why they need so many towers, because they&#8217;re forcing an un-natural signal to box us in. The more towers there are, the harder it is to escape the artificial signal field.</p><p>5G, 6G and the roll out of emergency broadcasting systems is not just a radiation concern, it&#8217;s frequency manipulation. Just like the right frequency can enhance and heal you, the wrong one can harm and weaken you. It interferes with your tuning, keeping you locked in a low vibrational state. It affects your nervous system, your blood and your DNA. It makes you more programmable and it&#8217;s no coincidence that brain fog, anxiety and sleep disruption are at all time highs. People are literally being hit with an artificial non-stop frequency that scrambles their natural rhythm.</p><h4>What can you do?</h4><ul><li><p>Firstly, the most important thing you need to do is switch 5G off on all of your devices. It takes 1 minute and is one of your greatest defences. Go to Settings, Mobile, Mobile data options, Voice &amp; data and switch the toggle to 4G/LTE. </p></li><li><p>Limit your physical contact with devices as much as possible. When you&#8217;re not using it, don&#8217;t keep it in your pocket, put it in a different room. </p></li><li><p>Leave cities and busy suburban areas. If you can move away from busy areas now, do so. If you can&#8217;t yet, make a plan to do so. </p></li><li><p>Turn your Wifi off at night. If this isn&#8217;t viable, shield yourself from harmful electromagnetic frequencies by leaving devices out of your bedroom. It is particularly harmful to charge your devices close to your body. </p></li><li><p>There are many different products on the market with EMF shielding capability that are worth looking into. Things like bed-sheets, fabric and even paint. </p></li><li><p>Copper is your best friend! It is a highly conductive metal that reflects and absorbs electromagnetic energy. It creates a continuous barrier that interrupts and re-directs highfrequency electromagnetic waves &amp; achieves significant signal reduction. It also also highly purifying destroys bacteria, viruses and other dangerous pathogens (why do you think they took it out of pools and plumbing systems!) I wear a copper bracelet, ring and necklace most of the time, and I even put a chunk of copper pipe in each of our water tanks. Make sure that it&#8217;s pure copper and not plated.</p></li></ul><p>Retune yourself with real frequencies. Anything that counteracts the synthetic signal.</p><ul><li><p>Sound baths </p></li><li><p>Schumann resonance. The Schumann resonance is a naturally occuring low frequency that hums at approximately 7.83hz. It&#8217;s trapped in the cavity between earth&#8217;s surface and the ionosphere and functions like a musical instrument. It has been termed the &#8216;heartbeat of the earth&#8217;. </p></li><li><p>Binaural beats </p></li><li><p>Listen to healing frequencies (428hz, 528z + 174hz) </p></li><li><p>Meditation </p></li><li><p>Spend time in places where the real ether still flows (old world architecture, the ocean, deep nature, anywhere they haven&#8217;t blanketed) </p></li><li><p>Get in alignment. Remember that we are in a war of frequency and the best way you can fight in it is to maintain your own frequency. Keep it high, keep it focused on light and love.</p></li></ul><h3>Summary</h3><p>It&#8217;s important to be informed and take action, but it&#8217;s equally important to not let fear pull you into a low vibrational space. Your frequency matters! Trust that the war is already won, we are just in the awkward in-between and your only role is to help alchemise the dark, evil energy on earth into light. So vibrate high and stay aware, because once you know the game it&#8217;s harder for them to manipulate you.</p><div><hr></div><h3>Detach from reliance as much as possible</h3><p>Most people have zero survival skills. We rely on the system for everything. Without supermarkets, where would we get food? Without town water, where would we get water from? Without a house, how would we build a roof over our heads? Without doctors and pharmacies, how would we heal ourselves? </p><p>This detachment from the knowledge and skills of our ancestors is intentional. If we are completely reliant on the system, they have total control of us. Without them we would perish, so we have no choice but to do as they tell us to.</p><h4><strong>Ways you can become independent of the control system</strong></h4><p><strong>Educate yourself on natural medicines<br></strong>For almost every pharmaceutical medicine, there is a natural one that is just as effective. This knowledge has been lost over the decades but you can re-teach it to yourself. There are hundreds of books, websites and social media/youtube accounts teaching these things. Educate yourself!</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://rebrand.ly/medicinal-garden-substack-re" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 1456w" sizes="auto, 100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg" width="700" height="494" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/f357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:494,&quot;width&quot;:700,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://rebrand.ly/medicinal-garden-substack-re&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!YQuK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Ff357928e-62bd-4761-a644-9ba118b39a37_700x494.jpeg 1456w" sizes="auto, 100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;In an era where we are increasingly dependent on fragile supply chains for even the most basic needs, building local resilience is no longer a hobby&#8212;it&#8217;s a necessity. I&#8217;ve been looking into the &#8216;Medicinal Garden Kit&#8217; as a practical step toward creating a backyard pharmacy. It&#8217;s a straightforward, seed-based approach to reclaiming a bit of our autonomy from centralized health systems.

If you have the space, get a breeding pair of goats or even cattle. Most people don&#8217;t have the space for this though so it&#8217;s a good idea to have connections in the meat game. Your local butcher is a good place to start</p><p><strong>Start composting</strong></p><p>Compost is a great way to make your own soil and help grow your garden. It doesn&#8217;t need to be anything crazy, my compost is a spare wheelie bin. I just drilled holes in the bottom of it (for the worms to get in and also for any excess liquid to seep out) and started throwing my food scraps in it. Ensure you don&#8217;t put meat products in there, only fruit &amp; veg waste. It&#8217;s also important to throw in dry materials like paper, cardboard, old leaves, grass clippings, hay etc to balance it, otherwise it will rot.</p><p><strong>Teach yourself to fish</strong></p><p>Although a rod is ideal, you can fish with nothing more than some fishing line, a hook and either bait or a lure. Worms make fantastic bait. The main thing with fishing is patience!</p><p><strong>Grow your own food</strong></p><p>It is easier than you think to grow your own produce. My first veggie patch was only about 5m x 3m and I grew herbs, corn, capsicum, carrot, beetroot, chilli, tomatoes, potatoes and even an avocado tree! Instead of throwing away seeds, chuck them in your garden and see what happens. You&#8217;ll be surprised what pops up. </p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank" href="https://rebrand.ly/self-sufficient-e4c5e7" data-component-name="Image2ToDOM"><div class="image2-inset"><picture><source type="image/webp" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_424,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_848,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 1456w" sizes="auto, 100vw"><img src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png" width="418" height="615" data-attrs="{&quot;src&quot;:&quot;https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/b7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png&quot;,&quot;srcNoWatermark&quot;:null,&quot;fullscreen&quot;:null,&quot;imageSize&quot;:null,&quot;height&quot;:615,&quot;width&quot;:418,&quot;resizeWidth&quot;:null,&quot;bytes&quot;:null,&quot;alt&quot;:null,&quot;title&quot;:null,&quot;type&quot;:null,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https://rebrand.ly/self-sufficient-e4c5e7&quot;,&quot;belowTheFold&quot;:true,&quot;topImage&quot;:false,&quot;internalRedirect&quot;:null,&quot;isProcessing&quot;:false,&quot;align&quot;:null,&quot;offset&quot;:false}" class="sizing-normal" alt="" srcset="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_424,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 424w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_848,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 848w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_1272,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 1272w, https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9fpz!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fb7a12a09-7270-4f29-bc47-aab3d6b18334_418x615.png 1456w" sizes="auto, 100vw" loading="lazy"></picture><div class="image-link-expand"><div class="pencraft pc-display-flex pc-gap-8 pc-reset"><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container restack-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg aria-hidden="true" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 20 20" fill="none" stroke-width="1.5" stroke="var(--color-fg-primary)" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon-noB79L"><g><path d="M2.53001 7.81595C3.49179 4.73911 6.43281 2.5 9.91173 2.5C13.1684 2.5 15.9537 4.46214 17.0852 7.23684L17.6179 8.67647M17.6179 8.67647L18.5002 4.26471M17.6179 8.67647L13.6473 6.91176M17.4995 12.1841C16.5378 15.2609 13.5967 17.5 10.1178 17.5C6.86118 17.5 4.07589 15.5379 2.94432 12.7632L2.41165 11.3235M2.41165 11.3235L1.5293 15.7353M2.41165 11.3235L6.38224 13.0882"></path></g></svg></button><button tabindex="0" type="button" class="pencraft pc-reset pencraft icon-container view-image buttonBase-GK1x3M"><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="20" height="20" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" class="lucide lucide-maximize2 lucide-maximize-2 icon-noB79L"><polyline points="15 3 21 3 21 9"></polyline><polyline points="9 21 3 21 3 15"></polyline><line x1="21" x2="14" y1="3" y2="10"></line><line x1="3" x2="10" y1="21" y2="14"></line></svg></button></div></div></div></a></figure></div><p>"I&#8217;ve often talked about the necessity of local self-reliance. This book, <em>The Self-Sufficient Backyard</em>, is arguably one of the most comprehensive guides I&#8217;ve seen for the independent homesteader. It details over 100 DIY projects that allow you to produce your own food, water, and energy on a surprisingly small amount of land. Whether you're in a city or the countryside, the principles here are designed to make you less vulnerable to supply chain shocks. <a href="https://rebrand.ly/self-sufficient-e4c5e7">Take a look at the project list here.</a>"</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://rebrand.ly/self-sufficient-e4c5e7&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;The Self-Sufficient Backyard&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="https://rebrand.ly/self-sufficient-e4c5e7"><span>The Self-Sufficient Backyard</span></a></p><p><strong>Move to a rural area</strong></p><p>One of the best ways to detach from the control system is to leave cities and suburban areas. You&#8217;ll never completely escape (unless you go live in a cave), but moving somewhere rural lessens the level of surveillance, harmful frequencies, poisoning and control. These things are only going to get worse as 2030 nears and I urge everyone to make a plan to move out of densely populated areas.</p><p><strong>Accumulate a stash of cash</strong></p><p>This one speaks for itself. If all of your money is in a bank account, your access to it can be switched off. If there are power blackouts and no internet you have no money. If you don&#8217;t comply with the &#8216;rules&#8217; one day when they implement a social credit system, they can switch off access to your money. Buy a good quality safe, bolt it to the wall and floor and start filling it with cash. Even if it&#8217;s only $50 a week, it&#8217;s a start and could be your lifeline one day</p><p><strong>Free yourself from debt</strong></p><p>One of the most successful traps they lay out for us is debt. They condition you from a very young age to attain &#8216;the dream&#8217; (which is a giant house, flash car and all the latest fashion, gadgets etc) and if you don&#8217;t have it, you&#8217;re not worthy... you are &#8216;less than&#8217;. This leads people to put themselves in crippling debt for the best part of their lives and in order to pay it back, you have to work like a slave. This is exactly where they want you because it means you generate free money for them in interest, and because you have to work more to stay afloat, they get more tax out of you too.</p><p>To escape this trap, don&#8217;t buy new cars unless you can afford to buy them finance free. There is nothing wrong with a second hand car! Stop falling for consumerism. Buy second hand furniture and your clothes from op shops. Your worth is not reflected in material things. For the love of god, do not get a credit card. And when buying a house, don&#8217;t buy at your full borrowing capacity. If you can&#8217;t afford to buy outright and avoid the mortgage trap, get the smallest mortgage you possibly can and hustle to pay extra off it so that you escape it as quickly as possible.</p><p style="text-align: center;">I&#8217;m running a special for $40/year or $5/month.</p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=211973844&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Get 20% off for 1 year&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;button-wrapper&quot;}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary button-wrapper" href="https://www.revealedeye.com/subscribe?coupon=55d4aba6&amp;utm_content=211973844"><span>Get 20% off for 1 year</span></a></p><p><strong>Learn useful skills</strong></p><p>It may not happen in our lifetime (or maybe it will, who knows at this point!) But eventually those of us who choose to opt out of digital ID, 15 minute cities and all other 2030 agenda control, will be cast out. We won&#8217;t have access to anything online (which means no banking), we may not even be able to access grocery stores as surveillance &amp; control will be so high that they will know the moment you walk into a store.</p><p>This means we will be left to our own devices. To survive we will build communities in rural and remote areas away from busy suburban areas. Such communities will share skills as currency, so you need to have something you can offer to others in exchange for what they can offer you. For example, if you have carpentry skills, you can build for someone in exchange for clothing and blankets which that person has the skill to make. Someone who farms cattle will exchange beef with someone who farms vegetables etc.</p><p>This sounds scary but honestly, I think it will be beautiful.</p><div><hr></div><p><em>Revealed Eye is my full-time, independent work.
