Yep. I've known this since I was a child. My parents were spiritually aware in a good way and have passed this perception and discernment on to their children and I hope to pass it on to mine as well. I would thus add spiritual discernment to critical thinking as an important tool to avoid the onslauht of manipulation. I am not even certain that they are very different things, actually. Spiritual people have said the same things you have noticed for centuries, millenia even.

Switch of TV, no newspaper, no youtube, no Netflix etc..

I never walk to help/visit people untill tv is off…

I have noticed that a lot of people get stressed when TV is switced off. Like drug adicts…

You're 100% right. It’s crazy how busy people get with those screens—it really is like an addiction they just can't shake. Turning off all that mainstream noise is definitely the first step.

And honestly, if we're already cutting out things like TV and Netflix, it’s the perfect time to rethink where our money actually goes. Instead of funding big tech and massive media companies, people could take those same subscription dollars and support independent writers and journalists. There are thousands of small creators like me, right here on Substack, who actually need and value that support to keep doing the real work.

This piece names something that most people feel but cannot articulate. The normalization of the abnormal. The desensitization to the grotesque. The slow, incremental erosion of the moral and cognitive faculties that allow a population to distinguish truth from manipulation.

The mechanism described here is not just psychological. It is biophysical. The constant bombardment of low-frequency information, the glamorization of violence, the desensitization to atrocity, all of it operates on the nervous system. It collapses the cellular voltage. It locks the fascia. It fragments the field. The result is a population that is not just confused but physiologically incapable of coherence.

Critical thinking is essential. But it is not enough. The mind can be trained to see through the manipulation, but if the body is still braced at -20 millivolts, if the nervous system is still operating from a baseline of threat, the critical thinking will not translate into action. It will remain an intellectual exercise. The body must be restored to coherence for the mind to operate from sovereignty.

The spiritual discernment mentioned in the comments is also essential. But discernment without embodiment is just another form of dissociation. The dark rituals, the symbolism, the normalization of pedophilia, these are not just moral issues. They are field issues. They are attacks on the coherence of the human aperture. And they must be met with both critical thinking and somatic restoration.

Thank you for writing this. It is a necessary contribution to the conversation. The matrix is not just a political system. It is a biological and energetic one. And it must be dismantled on all levels simultaneously.

It characterizes the days we are living in - where we are calling good evil and evil, good. Just as the Bible says. It’s mind blowing what we accept as “normal “ these days.

I stopped watching the news, movies, reading novels.... Very careful online. The Bible says "by beholding...." 2 Cor3:18 changed to be like Christ or changed negatively. The principle applies.

Yes you are correct. Revelation of the method to avoid ‘karma’ and make us ‘complicit.’ And they are indeed trying to normalise mental health disorders. These people sell their souls and it is quite blatant.
