Key words: Psychological-warfare, Politics, Performative politics, Media, Trauma-based mind control, Programming, Collective Trauma, Normalization, Sociological Imagination

Introduction

In my previous paper, The Greatest Magic Trick Played on Humanity, I explored the illusion that science, tech, and spirituality are separate domains. If systems are not merely material but symbolic and spiritual, then politics itself must also be examined as performance where governance operates not only through policy, but through narrative, spectacle, and psychological conditioning. If you’ve been feeling like life has been a psychological thriller and sci-fi film lately, you’re definitely not alone. I think a lot of people are finally realizing that the so-called conspiracy theorists have a leg to stand on in making sense of what is taking place globally. But it’s important to use critical thinking in critical times and not get swept away by sensationalism, the spread of misinformation or become desensitised by the inundation of negative media.

As a victim and survivor of an organized crime which has connections to human trafficking, these revelations couldn’t be more real, they hit close to home. I’ve been thinking about the phrase All the World is a Stage to explain how performative politics overlaps with entertainment and how personal patterns in my life help me make sense of events on the global stage. In As You Like It, Shakespeare alludes to life being a performance where we all play roles. This can be from being a child, student, worker, leader, elder to more complex roles as we go through different stages of our lives. Growing up a theatre kid myself and being exposed to both performance arts and political studies. I’ve always felt intuitively that there was always some kind of an unspoken script that we all follow based on who we are and what we know. When it comes to words and phrases like state vs. non-state actors, stages of our lives, roles, performative activism or performative politics, and narratives. I naturally begin to question how systems of power shape and design the script of our lives as well as ouroutcomes. I found it interesting that the word script is also used in technology coding, programming as well as entertainment.

Sociological Imagination: From Micro to Marco

Sociologist C. Wright Mills coined the term sociological imagination in his 1959 book The Sociological Imagination. This is a process of linking the individual biography or your individual experiences to broader societal patterns allowing individuals to understand how societal forces influence us. As an example, he emphasised that personal troubles, like unemployment or divorce, are often linked to public issues, such as economic downturns or changing social norms. However, to be neutral, we know correlation does not always equal causation, personal conflicts do not always reflect a broader interpretation and it’s important to acknowledge that nuance. This isn’t meant to be an extensive deep dive but meant to encourage critical thinking and curiosity around these ideas.

My experiences have served as a form of sociological imagination and a microcosm linking micro-to-macro events. What we can learn from media studies is that symbolisms (often used in movies and literature) point to themes in order to make sense of the story and understand the plot. This could look like the repetition of a certain colour, word, or sound pointing to something deeper at play. While I’m not in the machine of Hollywood geographically, for me micro to macro synchronicities revealed an interesting pattern. After realizing I spent most of my formative years raised in a place called Hollywood GlendonNorwood, a small area in the city of Montego Bay, Jamaica) I later moved to Canada at the age of 11, where I attended the Ursula Franklin Academy high school located at Glendonwyn Rd in Toronto and I was told that my grandparents named me after Britney Spears but with a twist, ironically, Britney was apart of the Mickey Mouse Club House and my father’s name is Mickey. During a sociology lecture at UFT I learned about the design of systems of social control, and how architecture is used to reinforce power and surveillance using the examples of DisneyLand and the Panopticon. These synchronicities, among others,sent me down a rabbit hole in connecting my personal experiences flooded with symbolism for a deeper spiritual understanding.

In What Ways Do Politics Overlap With Entertainment?

Politics and performance are inseparable practices that co-produce meaning in public life. In this way, politics can be understood as a kind of performance, and performance could be political in its effects. For example virtue signalling in political action can be compared to a form of PR (public relations) in the context of hollywood and media, since this is where someone cosplays as a good person to show or express their goodness or goodness of character while not actually taking any meaningful action towards the cause itself by genuinely supporting. To be clear, not all forms of performative politics are bad, it can be positive or negative in shaping public perceptions and social outcomes if done with integrity, moral grounding, and meaningful action.

Entertainment, Spectacle, & Governance

If all the world is a stage then that means politics, entertainment are more closely related than we think. After doing a bit of research into Presidents and Prime Ministers who’ve had exposure in film, tv, and entertainment I found interesting connections. Long before holding office, Ronald Reagan was a Hollywood film actor, Donald Trump built a mass audience as the reality-TV host of The Apprentice, and Volodymyr Zelenskyy rose to fame as a comedian and actor who literally played a president on screen before becoming one in real life. Justin Trudeau had early ties to media and acting before entering politics, while Joseph Estrada was a major movie star in the Philippines, Jimmy Morales was a television comedian in Guatemala, Marjan Šarec was a political satirist and actor in Slovenia, and Silvio Berlusconi shaped Italian politics after decades controlling tv and entertainment media.

Another topic that’s taken centre stage recently is Ericka Kirk’s involvement in film and TV prior to becoming Charlie Kirk’s wife and subsequent C.E.O and chairman of Turning Point USA. Ericka starred in Canadian group Emerson Drive’s 2012 music video “She’s my kind of crazy”, she also won Miss Arizona USA in 2012 and competed in Miss USA 2012.This isn’t to say presidents or political leaders can’t have a history in TV and film before occupying political
spaces but it does raise interesting conversations as it relates to the authenticity of those state actors on the global stage, leading many to question if it’s all just a performance.

Together, this reveals a recurring pattern, political power blurs the line between performance and leadership. Typically, when things share similar characteristics in structures and design, this is an indicator that it comes from similar roots or origins. That being said, I also find it interesting that the C.I.A and Department of Defence both historically and today, work within Holly-wood in shaping positive public perception in how they are portrayed to domestic and foreign audiences. They’ve funded movies like Animal Farm, Zero Dark Thirty and The Sum of all Fears to name a few if they agree to terms and conditions in the interest of “shaping foreign policy to win hearts and minds overseas” (Rath, 2013).

Pop Culture, Politics & Spirituality

I believe people missed something significant about the timing of Nicki’s commentary about Hollywood ritual practices. Some interpreted it as distraction; others saw it as confirmation of the overlap between politics and Hollywood from a spiritual lens. Is it a coincidence that her comments emerged around the same time as the release of the E Files and broader political spectacle at the time of being paraded on Trump’s platform and the E-files mentions Trump’s name over 38,000 times across more than 5,300 files according to the Department of Justice, and in those files there’s also mention of Satanic Rituals?
Whether intentional or not, this highlights spiritual undertones present in both worlds.

These issues transcend right or left; they are non-partisan and spiritual. There’s also the CIA’s historical interest in spirituality Project Stargate, the GATEway
program, MK Ultra. Project Stargate began in the 1970’s tested for remote viewing focussed on utilising psychic intelligence for Cold War-era military and intelligence operations. Remote viewing is the idea that someone can get information about a place, object, or event without using their normal
senses from distant locations, this is considered as extra-sensory perception outside of senses (like sight, hearing, or touch). It’s where they are able to describe something happening somewhere else just by using their mind.

The gifted and talented (GATE) program took place in the U.S and Canada, tested for remote viewing, psychic abilities, and high IQ for programmable minds.
The declassified, once secret MK Ultra conducted unethical experiments involving psychological manipulation and experimentation on unwitting and vulnerable subjects, including children, in both the U.S. and Canada. While officially terminated, many of its psychological and behavioral manipulation techniques are believed to have evolved into more covert and modern forms. In understanding how closely related the world of psychology and spirituality are it could be said that the creation of alter personalities was really a form of allowing demonic possession via torture and trauma. Since when you are in
a lower vibrational state like fear and trauma, demonic entities can attach themselves easier. It begs the question if these programs are intended to be for military purposes alone or is there something deeper at play? I’ve noticed that there’s always been an interest in the spiritual world meanwhile, in western societies and institutions, we’ve always been indoctrinated to deny the existence of spirituality, especially in the educational school system.

I remember a time when people talked about celebrities who were under MK ultra and the one eye symbolism connections and many people thought it was a conspiracy.. Afterresearching monarch programming and trauma based mind control I started to wonder, what are the effects of collective trauma on the collective unconscious. Trauma based mind control isn’t within the confines of just Hollywood anymore. As we touched on in the last video, psychological research has always shown that we are susceptible to large scale conditioning and programming as well as the profound impact media has in shaping the collective unconscious and collective mind.

In the chapter Trauma-based Mind Control from “Covid-19,” Psychological Operations, and the War for Technocracy (pp. 79–114). Lacter states “A key theme of ritual abuse is that the human mind is most susceptible to programming when traumatised by the fear of imminent death: “Torture involving states of extreme pain and terror, to the point of near-death, is required to install mind control programming”, this also reminds me of Pavlov’s dog experiments with classical conditioning. He continues “In line with understanding the long-term impacts of C-19, the idea of lifelong scarring following a traumatic event is consistent with ritual abuse and trauma-based mind control, in which abuser groups seek lifetime control of their victims. Submission is not rewarded with freedom in a year or in a decade. To submit is to begin a life-sentence. The longer one submits, the longer one is abused” (Lacter, 2007). Fast-forward today, the causal release of the E-Files and the proliferation of negative news regarding ICE yet again shows how we are gradually being conditioned and systemically desensitized to accept crimes against humanity as the new normal.

It’s understandable that society is destabilised because repeated trauma has the ability to break down an individual’s psyche to be reprogrammed to be more obedient, complicit and passive especially in the face of injustice, so that your abuser can maintain a sense of control. This is why I believe in tandem with the release of the E-files we are also saw the weaponization and militarization of ICE. The gradual exposure to these crimes functions as both its own psyop and signaling of where we are as a collective. It functions in ways similar to psychological operations, whether intentionally or structurally. The repetition of these stories across social media and news platforms can have psychological conditioning effects similar to those studied in information warfare, being inundated with information with little to no accountability is also a form of virtue signalling and performance at the very least.

Energy Harvesting, Down to the Science.

With the release of “The E-Files” and the militarization of ICE, it confirms for me that the “scientific world” and structural systems of social control are inherently spiritual at their core. The E-files include allegations invoking spiritual and ritualistic language, they include public revelations and allegations involving elite misconduct. Yet to date, there has been no investigation to bring accountability to these victims, forcing many to question if governments and the legal systems are merely symbolic. In a Ted Talk by Bryan Stevenson, he mentioned:We have a criminal justice system that treats you better if you’re rich and
guilty than if you’re poor and innocent….wealth, not culpability shapes outcomes.” Highlighting that it’s not about morality, ethics or justice; it’s about who has the immunity of wealth. I’d have to agree with that but that doesn’t mean that’s a reality we should accept.

In the last video, I highlighted that scientific narratives matter in shaping outcomes, pointing to the fact that scientific philosophies are responsible for shaping our understanding of human life and welfare. It’s no surprise to me that eugenics came up in the E-Files, eugenics is the belief that society can be “improved” by controlling who is allowed to reproduce, typically operating through discriminatory policies such as forced sterilization, selective breeding, and restrictions on certain groups to shape the population’s traits. This was used both historically and currently to commit genocide and other crimes against humanity. I’d
add that insidious ideas like necropolitics are also at play here, necropolitics is the use of political power to decide whose lives are protected and whose are exposed to harm, operating through political, economic, and social systems that subject certain groups to danger, suffering, or premature death. Literally death by design.

In my view, what we are witnessing on the global stage in real time is a massive psychological operation using a mix of trauma-based mind control and desensitization techniques to create a new normal. Social theorist and philosopher Michel Foucault also talked about power through language and discourse; he asserts that language is used as a symbolic and functional tool in the production of power and outcomes. We use language to create and shape our realities. From a spiritual perspective, words are also spells, when wespeak we have the ability to cast spells and manipulate reality. In relating this to my thoughts on ICE, according to the second law of thermodynamics, cold is really the absence of heat, it’s a transfer from heat to cold. In the same way dark is the absence of light. In order to make sense of these concepts we need a name for it.

Looking at this more spiritually, If cold is the absence of thermal energy, we need to check in with our individual energies to ensure it’s not being harvested and used to fuel more ICE as constant public outrage can serve as a form of energy harvesting, especially if we continue to be flooded with information without any actual accountability. It’s no coincidence that ICE is being spread in our collective field, in the collective mind through repetition and in connection with crimes against humanity, terror, and fear and at the same time as graphic and disturbing news regarding the release of the heavily redacted.

We have a natural neurological response to protect our psyche by adapting to the environment and when the shocking becomes common, our nervous system allows things to be filtered and normalized to protect ourselves psychologically. With mass trauma following the events of C-19, E-files and militarization of ICE this can lead to an overwhelming cognitive load, which then leads to diminished responses like freeze or fawn responses. This is where the individual checks out and becomes disengaged, especially if they perceive that nothing’s changing or improving (Ruggeri, 2024). My concern is that what we are witnessing between state and non-state actors is not only a confirmation that science, spirituality and systems of control are more connected than we
assumed, but through gradual exposure with a gap in accountability, we are being systemically conditioned and desensitized to accept these behaviours as the “new normal”.

By using trauma-informed psychological frameworks that examine how shock and instability influence perception and compliance, we can analyze the impact on the collective unconscious. We talk about traumatic experiences creating c-PTSD as a form of complex post traumatic stress response, but what if we re-direct to post traumatic growth as a way to recover, regain a sense of autonomy, and heal where possible. Post-traumatic growth is a personal and transformative process that can coexist with ongoing distress or PTSD. It emphasizes that while trauma is painful, individuals can emerge with greater resilience, insight, and appreciation for life, often discovering strengths and perspectives they did not know they have. This is not to say we need trauma to be great but it’s a way to transmute the negative experiences into more positive outcomes.

Everyone’s tolerance is different so It’s important to navigate overwhelming information carefully, cut through the noise and be a critical thinker especially in critical times. Research has found that taking action on something distressing makes “burnout” on that topic less likely. Taking action looks different for each person; taking action could be equipping yourself with knowledge and understanding, knowing the truth and sharing the truth or it could be
donating to a cause that fights against trafficking and organized crime. God reminds us in Romans 12:2 to not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our minds, showing us that the battle is for the mind not in the mind. What we see taking place is real and it’s important not to lose touch of reality at a time when we need each other the most. Protecting your mind becomes a necessity before any action.

Conclusion: Change in Direction

We are seeing documented failures of accountability. Media cycles repeatedly expose misconduct without systemic reform. And we know repeated exposure without structural change can create desensitization. This resembles patterns studied and confirmed in psychological conditioning. I know what it’s like to be in the shadows, as someone who’s experienced targeting, repeated sabotage, threats to my stability, safety and sanity, I feel the weight of what is
happening deeply. But an even greater sense of urgency for a collective awakening. It doesn’t take a sociologist to recognize that society is sick. Disease is the absence of health in any state and bad ideas spread like a virus. We cannot allow the mass spread of mal information to become habituated without a resolve, we are at the point where you either give in, and accept things as the new normal or wake up and realize most of us are like frogs in boiling water, being subtly brainwashed into what will eventually become mass psychosis, delusions, and possibly menticide.

In 2nd Timothy 1:7 it states “For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind” Fear takes over when you do not recognize your individual power. We have the choice to use this information as a catalyst for enlightenment and deeper understanding of the world and systems around us or we can allow them to continue to harvest our energies to create more negative outcomes. In times like these, we must be reminded of a simple truth, a threat to justice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere and If all the world is a stage, where directors/scriptwriters are the entities or elite groups that set the narratives, here’s the twist: you are not merely an actor you are also the audience. You influence the narrative through response.
