Another tour de force from Alison McDowell. If you watch nothing else this week watch this.Another four hour video but highly recommended. It will allow you to get a handle on how they will socially engineer us using technology and language.
Snow Crash is a science fiction novel by the American writer Neal Stephenson, published in 1992. In his 1999 essay “In the Beginning… Was the Command Line”, Stephenson explained the title of the novel as his term for a particular software failure mode (Snow crash) on the early Macintosh computer.
The most famous Nam-shub is the Nam-šub of Enki– a Sumerian spell to corrupt language. Once upon a time all mortals spoke the same language. But as soon as this Nam-shub was uttered, speech was confused, tongues twisted and nobody could understand their neighbor.
To summarize, Enki’s Nam-Shub in “Snow Crash” is a strong virus that uses language to alter the human brain. The modern analog of Enki’s Nam-Shub is algorithmic prejudice, which has the potential to perpetuate discrimination and injustice in society.It’s also related to the Leibnizian idea of a language of nature in which any distinction can be modelled purely as a number. Rather than look a word up in a dictionary, as you must with any human language, in the Leibnizian vision you’d know what the word meant just by parsing it lexically – as you understand any arithmetic number. This short clip will show you what they are doing with the linguistic data that they are collecting:

Conclusion
And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. (KJV Genesis 11:6)
For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. (RSV 2 Thessalonians 2:7 )
The Beast is now emerging from the abyss and many of the players are starting to show their true colors. The enemy hates Christianity and wants to destroy it. The enemy holds the ancient beliefs of the Gnostics (those who claim secret knowledge) who were thrown out of the church two millinnea ago and who trace their origins back to the Hermetic founder known as Hermes Trismegistus a Greek bastardization of the Egyptian god Thoth. This is the “religion” of transhumanism, a cult that uses science to transcend what it means to be human and become “gods” (Elohim). For this reason they elevate the serpent in Eden as the “light-bringer” (illumination) and YHWH as the demiurge.
So far, Randall Carlson, Joe Rogan, Alex Jones, Graham Hancock and now the Ethical Skeptic have shown themselves as adherents of the ancient cult but there are many more and there is a drive in the alt media space to push this worldview.
Coming together
If you watched any of the Alison McDowell videos that I posted (particularly the last one) then you will see that in the new paradigm will be impact financing with the commoditization of human behavior using ledger technology (the blockchain) and tokenism. In other words you will “earn” tokens (social credits) by doing (or not doing) certain things and “investors” will make money by betting on your behavior (buying shares, trading etc on the outcomes). The idea is that they can micro-manage you and change how you think and who you are to “save the world” this is what ESG is about:
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing is used to screen investments based on corporate policies and to encourage companies to act responsibly. Many mutual funds, brokerage firms, and robo-advisors now offer investment products that employ ESG principles.
Alison has demonstrated links between Scientology, Nation of Islam and JFK Jr. Moreover, she has previously demonstrated links between LDS (Mormons). These cults are all involved in this space. Scientology used its applied scholastic program schools in 72 countries (lolz). Scientology promotes group mind consciousness and ego death. We are witnessing the convergence of all these cults (and many main stream religious denominations) like the Moonies (Trump spoke at their conference). We also see the rise of “prophetic” movements and supposedly “revivalist” Christian movements which are promoting Christ consciousness or Christian nationalism (or both). These are all false. I believe the key words in this new doctrine is unity and together because they need to create the hive mind. They need to completely dispel the idea of sovereignty and agency (freewill) and reduce humanity to learned helplessness with their psyops and jabs. Just look at the maps that Alison made and the myriad of connections (I have highlighted Hubbard the founder of Scientology). Look at the connection to Jack Parsons the occultist rocket scientist (I made the connection with Madonna after watching Alison’s video…click on the tweet and look at the pictures of the whore of Babylon).
Then there is this even more extensive map by Alison (which also includes Hubbard) concentrating on impact financing but my point is that it will all be mediated to us as a one world New Age Religion.

I discovered the sub-stack by Matthew Ehret(Canadian Patriot) which led me to the following interesting video. Although my view on China is more nuanced, I know the Jews were instrumental in the rise of Chinese communism and before that opioid enslavement by the British East India Company via the Jewish-Iranian Sassoon family, so any critique of China must be balanced against a century of shame and colonial imperialism. In this video Ehret refers to the promotion of the use of psychedelics (something Alison McDowell also mentions regarding the death of ego).
Some 73 years ago Albert Hofmann (not Jewish lolz) discovered LSD-25. Isolating, naming and synthesizing psilocybin and psilocin, as well as synthesizing various analogs thereof but it took Timothy Leary (October 22, 1920 – May 31, 1996) to popularize it which led to the free love hippie era. Leary was an American psychologist and author known for his strong advocacy of psychedelic drugs.He remained in the non-commissioned officer track while enrolled in the psychology subsection of the Army Specialized Training Program, including three months of study at Georgetown University which is a top Jesuit University in the US and a CIA finishing school.
The idea is that a psychedelic drug culture coupled with a simulacrum (VR) will replace Christianity. How else will you distract and entertain and pacify an increasingly neurologically disabled and injured population of mouth breathers that are not allowed to travel or eat real food? Christianity will be replaced with the hive mind. We are all in this together (lolz).

Ehert has a number of very interesting things to say one of them being the mention of the book The Immortality Key: Uncovering the Secret History of the Religion with No Name by Brian C. Muraresku.
The book has a Forward by Graham Hancock who I have dubbed Hermetic Hancock as they purged my comment under the video on the YT channel Future Unity. No thanks. I don’t want your future unity. This is the spiel for selling the book:
A groundbreaking, controversial dive into the role psychedelics have played in the human experience of the Divine throughout Western history, and the answer to a 2,000 year old mystery that could shake the Church to its foundations.The Immortality Key connects the lost, psychedelic sacrament of Greek religion to early Christianity—exposing the true origins of Western Civilization. In the tradition of unsolved historical mysteries like David Grann's Killers of the Flower Moon and Douglas Preston's The Lost City of the Monkey God, Brian Muraresku’s 10-year investigation takes the reader through Greece, Germany, Spain, France and Italy, offering unprecedented access to the hidden archives of the Louvre and the Vatican along the way.
In The Immortality Key, Muraresku explores a little-known connection between the best-kept secret in Ancient Greece and Christianity. This is the real story of the most famous human being who ever lived (Jesus) and the biggest religion the world has ever known. Today, 2.4 billion people are Christian. That's one third of the planet. But do any of them really know how it all started?
Before Jerusalem, before Rome, before Mecca—there was Eleusis: the spiritual capital of the ancient world. It promised immortality to Plato and the rest of Athens's greatest minds with a very simple formula: drink this potion, see God. Shrouded in secrecy for millennia, the Ancient Greek sacrament was buried when the newly Christianized Roman Empire obliterated Eleusis in the fourth century AD.
Renegade scholars in the 1970s claimed the Greek potion was psychedelic, just like the original Christian Eucharist that replaced it. In recent years, vindication for the disgraced theory has been quietly mounting in the laboratory. The rapidly growing field of archaeological chemistry has proven the ancient use of visionary drugs. And with a single dose of psilocybin, the psycho-pharmacologists at Johns Hopkins and NYU are now turning self-proclaimed atheists into instant believers. No one has ever found hard, scientific evidence of drugs connected to Eleusis, let alone early Christianity. Until now.
Armed with key documents never before translated into English, convincing analysis, and a captivating spirit of quest, Muraresku mines science, classical literature, biblical scholarship and art to deliver the hidden key to eternal life, bringing us to what clinical psychologist William Richards calls "the edge of an awesomely vast frontier."
Featuring a Foreword by Graham Hancock, the New York Times bestselling author of America Before: The Key to Earth's Lost Civilization.
The Multipolar Reality: Synthetic Virtual Reality Drug Cults vs Natural Law
Matt Ehert is also on Rumbleand I intend to explore his historical videos on the USA. So much that we have been told about history is a lie. We must keep pulling at the threads till we reveal the truth. For example, I was intrigued by the suggestion that Hitler may have been treated for his WWI injuries by a Tavistock agent/clinic. Much of history is planned. Wars don’t just happen.They are not random events.
Exposure
In the end they will all expose themselves. Very disappointed to find out that the Ethical Skeptic who did such sterling work on the statistics is posing as a Christian. He (or she?) is a Gnostic and controlled opposition laying breadcrumbs to lead you into dystopia. Naval intelligence? I should have guessed.
Gnostic heretics. That ancient serpent the devil. False brethren crept in unawares.https://t.co/WXSouadXzU
Even history is being given a Gnostic “spin” and scripture is being discredited:
“It’s important to remember that the Sumerian authors didn’t believe they were the earliest human civilization. They claimed to have received all this from an earlier civilization that had, by their time, become extinct”.https://t.co/AkGjO6OVGA
We are in the matrix. They have prepared the architecture for their New Age and all the institutes are ready to launch their trap on the sheep population. They believe that they can hide away and reemerge as gods after the uroboros eats its tail. They may well be “gods” but they will die like men (Psalm 82:7).
I will not fear the failure of the magnetic shield nor will I put my trust in the shield of man (Adam/Edom or Red Shield=Rothschild), for God is my shield and very great reward (Gen 15:1). Though I walk through the valley of death (Ps 23:4) and though I be in perils among false brethren (2 Cor 11:26) I will fear no evil.
And if you can reincarnate as the Whore of Babylon then I and my brethren can reincarnate in the Spirit of Moses and Elijah the Tishbite the two witness of the Apocalypse out of whose mouths proceeds fire (Rev 11:5) as we burn you with words of truth. Jesus Christ the King of Kings is returning and his reward is with him. We reject you lies and the future that you want to impose with the SOMA of your brave new world. You have already lost and are dead men walking.
I have created a tag for Alison McDowell because her work is so important. She is digging into tokenism and impact finance and web 3.0 a simulacra (such as described by Sci-Fi writer Vernor Vinge) and ledger technology (block chain). This is the threat. This is the future they want for everyone.This episode will discuss connections between the California chapter of Children’s Health Defense and Scientology. She recommends the channel ArgusFest that I will also be exploring.
Scientology, Snow White, and SSRIs – Camelot Corner (2:17)
Heal the World? (Tikkun Olam). First they make the world “sick” then they offer the “cure”. It is called the Hegelian Dialectic.Problem, reaction…solution. Lucky for us they have had the solution on the shelf ready to go for at least 30 years (actually, longer than that but they had to wait for the technology to catch up with their mad schemes). And they are mad. I am not using hyperbole and neither was Jesus when he said that they will take seven unclean spirits into themselves and the last state of that man was worse than the first (Luke 11:26). Stark raving, loony, rubber room, mad scientist, Nutty Mac Nut and psychopathic. Did I tell you they were insane?
A captured medical system, a corrupted education system etc. They have got you from the cradle to the grave. You are owned. You have owners. Listen to this Jewish Guy tell you the truth….interview by Alison McDowell. Also look at the slide presentation.
It is bad enough that they want to vaccinate us and change our diet but they want your kids on the blockchain. They will be assessed at an early age and “invested” in if they are deemed worthy. It is called social bonds and they aim to trade in the outcomes. You can establish a whole derivative market on this which will work great with carbon trading etc. Do you see how it works? everything digitized and on the blockchain. It is all linked. Not for nothing does it say in the Apocalypse that the Great Harlot traded in the bodies and souls of men. Imagine the course of a young child’s life already set and controlled at the age of four. Assigned to the “useless” class for the rest of their life. It is disgusting. Two more interviews by Alison which I still have to view. She is an expert on how the blockchain is being used in the education system and how it will be monetized. If people do not wake up fast we are done for. They won’t be able to do much with the older generations (except kill them) but they are coming for the kids now.
In this stunning Ice Age Farmer broadcast, Christian is joined by Alison McDowell, a mother and researcher studying the World Economic Forum’s “4th Industrial Revolution”: the global takeover of industries and public policies by central banks, multinational corporations, big tech technocrats, and billionaire-funded foundations. Alison is uniquely capable of distilling the agendas at play, the actors involved, and the language they use into real-world terms. Today we do exactly that: digital twinning, human capital bonds, impact investing — these are terms we must understand to appreciate the world the technocrats are constructing, and how digital systems are being constructed using blockchain and AI that will surveil and control everything from your food, your health, your children, and our future.

Don’t just dismiss this article as to do with “finance” or economics. It goes to the heart of what the NWO wants for the world which is global enslavement. I try to bring the latest trends and thinking and I believe that this is of the utmost importance. There is a debate raging about crypto currencies and blockchain. Some say it should be used as a tool to escape the banking system but others say that it is a deliberate trap using FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) and greed to suck people in. Some say that the reason it is called “Blockchain” is because it is the building blocks of an even greater chain of enslavement of all mankind, just like the “web” is designed to ensnare you. We know the web and social media were originally military projects and suddenly crypto and blockchain appears out of nowhere and nobody really knows who designed it? Yeah, sure. Every advance in technology has been used against the people to gain more control over them. There is no reason to expect this to be any different. Nothing digital is secure. Blockchain will never free us as it is trackable. Even Monero can now be decrypted by d-wave computers which are only owned by governments and possibly ultra rich people.
In this interview (it does have bad sound quality) Ryan and Derrick hold that blockchain is a “tool” and that it can be used for good or for evil. That is true for almost every tool but what concerns me is that crypto has been used to drive speculation and a “money for nothing” attitude to suck people in. My gut instinct is that it is very suspicious and that it is all controlled. I believe that it has been game planned from the start and they are using fear and greed to get people invested in the new system.
Some go so far as to see Ryan and Derrick as controlled opposition shilling for blockchain and crypto technology. I do not think that is the case but I do think that they are wrong. Derrick mentions Alison McDowell who refuses to debate him on the subject. She understands blockchain technology as very dangerous. I tend to agree with her and have posted her material before but believe that now is the time for a more extensive treatment.
Alison McDowell is a sort of a socialist democrat, involved with the American Indian movement, with a little anarchist, but also (unfortunately) with some of that garbage racial woke nonsense thrown in about how evil whitey is. But her criticisms, descriptions of the crypto-gamification market, especially how it is being implemented along the lines of ‘impact investing’ are extremely important, because it shows where all of that is actually headed, regardless of whether so-and-so wants to do something with it. Crypto is electronic, so it does take devices, an energy grid, resources- it isn’t completely independent. It is a tech currency. Anyhow- Derrick is an American Indian, who falls on the almost exact opposite end of the spectrum as Alison, if I’m not mistaken. Derrick is more a right anarchist, like an-cap agorist, who thinks crypto can be used positively? Find the interview between Ryan and Derrick below but more importantly (and if you are time poor) skip the interview and go straight to the section with Alison M’cDowell.
Derrick Broze Interview – Blockchain Technology Can Be Our Liberation Or Our Enslavement
Alison McDowell
I suggest watching her four part video series. It is extremely important that people understand what is planned. Basically, everything will go on the blockchain – all data and it will enable the commoditization of people. In the Internet Of Things (IoT) the ultimate THING is you. Here follow two of Alison’s tweet comments:
Medical passports combined with electronic health records tracking "impacts" on individuals and communities. People no longer sovereign beings, but data nodes - medicalized wards of the state. Digital health data harvested to meet demands of burgeoning human capital bond markets.
Biosensor data linked to medical passports; automated data transmission usurping a person’s rights to mobility; an extra-legal judicial system where algorithms and geo-fencing determine the degrees of freedom to which a person is entitled based on their electronic health record.
Below is a link to the videos…I urge you to watch them. This link should take you to the Google search page result and the reason that I have done that is because it has a handy key moments feature underneath.
I suggest adding Alison to you Twitter follow list. Click the link below to go to the archived version of the diagram.
It’s not enough to talk vaguely about digital slavery. There’s an apparatus in place advancing the project – specific people and organizations – human capital as a service. My Anthropos Capital map shines a light on some. Ronald Cohen in a supporting role. https://t.co/K98AMktWQrpic.twitter.com/sJ5RZxLCf3
School closures are harmful to children and the continued closure of schools is not just harmful to education but will have a long term social and emotional consequences. Some children will be damaged for life. The government knows this. It also knows that the closures are unnecessary. School closures will do little stop the spread of infections (whether you believe that covid is a pandemic or not). If that is all true then why is the government continuing with the school shutdown policy?
Why are they continuing with school shutdowns?
There are in my view a number of reasons. Firstly, they know that it will force at least one parent to stay home. This helps with the destruction of the economy and increases the stress levels in the home, which in turn increases the sickness levels. Secondly, they know that the Fourth Industrial revolution involving AI and robotics will mean that many jobs will no longer be needed. What is the point of educating children for jobs that will not exist?
Professor Yuval Noah Harari from Haifa speaks of man becoming God (Homo Deus) – there will be two classes of people, the trans-human upper class and the useless lower class. The useless lower class (many of your kids) will spend their lives online in a virtue reality.
At the moment they are assessing us and all and our children (are we a keeper or not?). They are collecting all of our online data and even (especially) our DNA. They are experimenting on us with different “vaccines” that modify our genome. They are practicing eugenics on the elderly. Children younger than five are already been consigned to the “useless” class based on the data they collect. It is shocking to think that lifetime outcomes can be decided at such a young age.
Professor Heckman and colleagues finds 13% ROI (Return on Investment)for comprehensive, high-quality, birth-to-five early education. This research analyzes a wide variety of life outcomes, such as health, crime, income, IQ, schooling, and the increase in a mother’s income after returning to work due to childcare. https://heckmanequation.org/resource/13-roi-toolbox/
All this analysis is already being performed by AI. It sounds like science fiction nonsense but it is not. These systems are data hungry and because they use quantum computing they can calculate an enormous range of probabilities. If fed with enough data they can become predictive (to an extent) and manipulate reality.
They will treat humans like commodities which is a form of slavery. Microsoft has a patent application with the numbers 060606 in it, but it’s for a system which rewards physical activity with cryptocurrency. In other words you become a money making machine for them. It is the social credit score system on steroids. They are going to employ social impact bonds (SIB), which is a contract with the public sector or governing authority, whereby it pays for better social outcomes in certain areas and passes on the part of the savings achieved to investors.
Steve Rothschild says;
"The concept of the “new normal” has infiltrated the thinking of policymakers, employers, and service providers. Brought about by demographic and technological changes, the new normal demands change: business as usual will no longer work.For human service providers, the new normal poses some big challenges. Faced with tighter budgets, federal, state, and local governments are cutting back on discretionary programs, often human services". https://www.frbsf.org/community-development/files/human-capital-performance-bonds.pdf
He goes on to explain that,
"There are a variety of models of social impact investing, including variations on the social impact bond (SIB) and the human capital performance (HUCAP) bond. The HUCAP bond has two key design features that distinguish it from SIBs: (1) payment to social enterprises is based on their performance, and (2) it uses bond funds for capital".
This is the complete control and subjection of mankind. Full spectrum dominance. The creation of an upper technocratic class and a small manageable useless class that will live in a virtual reality world and will be mined for their data and farmed for the pleasure of the elite. We will be traded and hypothecatized. Now please watch this video:
This is part 1 of an interview conducted by Jason Bosch in Philadelphia, PA on May 17, 2020.
Alison McDowell is a mother and dedicated researcher studying the working parts of the World Economic Forum’s declared “Fourth Industrial Revolution” and the global takeover of industries and public policies by the central banks, multinational corporations, big tech technocrats and billionaire funded foundations.
Part 1: The Fourth Industrial Revolution and the Global Technocratic Takeover w/ Alison McDowell
This is transcribed from the video below;
"The people who are running these systems are not benevolent actors the money they give away for certain ends is to accomplish to reinforce their own power and influence not generative and re-distributive its dominating".
It all seems very innocent until you realize they are sucking up all the data and analyzing your children so that they can decide whether they will be a worthwhile investment or not.
Augmented Reality for Enteprise Alliance
Of course it all sounds like so much science fiction nonsense and then you come across something like this (skip the intro and watch the first 5 minutes or so…the virtual office).
The Future Interfaces Group is an interdisciplinary research lab within the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. Researchers at the FIG are developing new concepts that may provide value to users of enterprise AR systems.
In this webinar, two projects will be presented: ● BodySLAM addresses the need for body, hand or mouth tracking without special worn sensors or external infrastructure in co-located, multi-user experiences. It uses disparate camera views from users to digitize the body, hands and mouth of other people. ● MeCap provides real-time estimates of a wearer’s 3D body pose, hand pose, facial expression, physical appearance and surrounding environment by adding low-cost motion capture and user-sensing capabilities to off-the-shelf head mounted displays.
They believe that the real world is a virtual reality (there is growing evidence to support that) and they think that given enough data they can create their own virtual reality (matrix). In effect they are creating a virtual reality within a virtual reality. Of course, that is nonsense because a game cannot be hacked from within (that would be like a Sims gaming character taking over) – all the programmer/player (outside consciousness) has to do is unplug the computer. Game over. Now watch this video in full and tell me if you still think it is all fantasy.
The New World Order 2020: A Cybernetic Hive Mind Matrix controlled by Avatar Gods in the Cloud
God wins
These people are evil psychopaths and they have blood on their hands. A New world that is based on deception and lies cannot stand. The end does not justify the means….it never does. Their father was a liar and a murder from the beginning. The synagogue of Satan will not prevail. What they fail to understand is that this is not just about power and knowledge but about righteousness. Even if they were as smart as God (which they are not) they would still be moral imbeciles. The Great Whore has enslaved the whole world but she is destined to be burnt. She did not prevail against Jesus and neither will she prevail against his Church.
9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning, 10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. 11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more: 12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, {thyine: or, sweet} 13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. {slaves: or, bodies} 14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all. 15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, 16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! 17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, (Rev 18)
