10. Control of Media and Dissenting Voices

a.  Control of Media

1)  Same Script?

Does it sometimes sound like the mainstream news media all use the same script? Well, they do! They all get most of their lead stories from a non-profit organization called Project Syndicate. Project Syndicate is an international media organization that publishes and syndicates commentary and analysis on a variety of global topics for a network of 506 media outlets in 156 countries.

2)  Same Ownership?

Of course, all these networks have different people running them though, right? Well, yes, but if you keep peeling back the levels of managers, ownership, stockholders, investors, etc., guess what you find? It all points back to two of the biggest investment management companies, BlackRock and Vanguard, and both are members of the World Economic Forum.

3) What Else Do They Own?

BlackRock and Vanguard also own controlling interests in all of the major pharmaceutical companies, like Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, and Abbott. (Is there any wonder that all mainstream news gave us the same lies about Covid and the vaccine?)

The stock of the world’s largest corporations is owned by the same institutional investors. They all own each other. The smaller investors are owned by larger investors. Those are owned by even bigger investors. The visible top of this pyramid shows only two companies: Vanguard and BlackRock. In all, they have ownership in 1,600 American firms, which in 2015 had combined revenues of $9.1 trillion. When you add in the third-largest global owner, State Street, their combined ownership encompasses nearly 90% of all S&P 500 firms.

Who controls almost all Big Pharma + Big Media? You’ll never guess   (This article and the first video it contains has the best presentation that I have found for understanding all these interconnections.)

b.  Control of Dissent

1)  Censorship & Deplatforming by Social Media

  • The First Amendment recognizes that no person or entity has a monopoly on the truth.
  • Labeling speech “misinformation” or “disinformation” does not strip it of its First Amendment protection.
  • Under the Constitution, the federal government is strictly prohibited from censoring Americans’ political speech.
  • Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
  • – an upstart agency within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
  • – Founded in 2018, CISA was originally intended to be an ancillary agency designed to protect “critical infrastructure” and guard against cybersecurity threats.
  • – However, CISA metastasized into the nerve center of the federal government’s domestic surveillance and censorship operations on social media.
  • – By 2020, CISA routinely reported social media posts that allegedly spread “disinformation” to social media platforms.
  • Now they have redefined democracy from being about the will of the voters to being about the sanctity of democratic institutions.
  • – the military, NATO, the IMF and the World Bank;
  • – it’s the mainstream media, the NGOs that are State Department funded.
  • – it’s essentially all of the elite establishments that were under threat from the rise of domestic populism that declared their own consensus to be the new definition of democracy.
  • – if you define democracy as being the strength of democratic institutions rather than a focus on the will of the voters, then what you’re left with is just the consensus building architecture within the democratic institutions themselves.
  • – and this is why they can look straight into the camera and say with a straight face, “Donald Trump is the greatest threat to democracy.” They’re using a different definition of democracy.

  • Social media platforms, operating on their own, do not come under the 1st Amendment and have been allowed to ban users.
  • As of March 20, 2023, eight elected officials had been suspended and/or banned from Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube while in office—most notably, Pres. Trump. (They were reinstated since then.)
  • Three had to do with 2020 Election ‘misinformation’; and three had to do with Covid-19 ‘misinformation’ (which later proved to be true).
  • All of these represented conservative views.

2)  Suppression and Use of Algorithms

  • Social media uses key words and algorithms to identify and either label or remove posts which it deems as ‘misinformation.’
  • Search engines use algorithms to bury or promote sites in their list of results presented to the viewer based on political leaning or such factors.

3)  Financial Cancellation or Freezing

  • Increasing numbers of people are finding themselves cut off from their bank accounts and banking services. Examples include:
  • Bank of America terminated the account of a Christian charity that supports orphaned Ugandans,
  • – A Christian group alleged religious discrimination by Bank of America,
  • – A religious nonprofit group led by former US Ambassador Sam Brownback says Chase closed its accounts.
  • Religious Freedom, a nonprofit organization, claimed that Chase Bank ignored requests to explain why their account was shutdown.
  • Stripe (the internet credit card processing company, disabled accounts and froze funds with no warning and little explanation.
  • SWIFT, an organization that establishes common processes and creates standards for financial transactions, is planning to launch a new central bank digital currency platform in 12-24 months. (A number of large banks have already come on board—including 2 banks in China.)

4)  Other Types of Cancellation or Suppression

  • During the pandemic, there were numerous controls of where you could go or what you could do related to Covid vaccination status or such.
  • Many events have either been canceled or not even booked because of the religious or political views of the group.
  • Government prompted data mining of transactions by financial services, looking for key words to use as a basis for taking actions, can be another form of control or suppression.
  • A system of social credits to control or limit actions an individual can take is used in China. Might that also be headed our way?
