theend if the stars fall in the earth it begins
begins
to the intelligent minorities can
engineer consent through the use of
manipulation propaganda and control and
we should do it people have got to know
whether or not their president is a
crook well I'm not a crook
we're in the midst of a serious
financial crisis and the federal
government is responding with decisive
action I know that the American people
share my deep belief that if a danger
exists in the world it is a danger
shared by
all we need to actually double down on
measures you can't look at that
television and say nothing happened on
the sixth I would like you to answer the
question okay it's very simple to answer
that's why I asked it it's very simple
you the
end most people have no awareness of how
easily our behavior and even our
identity can be completely taken
over but people are waking
up I spent 20 years in the US military
I'm a behavior expert I I've trained
Sops I'm the bestselling author in
behavioral psychology I want to show you
exactly how to identify what we call
engineered reality or what some people call
call [Music]
[Music]
scops at the end of this I'm going to
give you a tool that's literally going
to give you a score out of 100 that
shows you how likely something is to be
so the first thing you need to know is
following the Fate model Focus Authority
tribe and emotion this is what triggers
the mamalian part of our brain that
makes all of our real decisions the
first part is focus Sops always aim to
hijack your attention with repetition
shocking visuals of fear inducing
scenarios some examples are like 247
media coverage of a crisis or constant
repetition of terms like unprecedented
so with this pause and ask why is this
message being pushed so aggressively so
compare how much airtime different
stories are receiving and note any
disproportionate Focus the second part
here is Authority trusted figures might
shift their tone or positions
unnaturally to support the narrative so
watch very closely for expert panelists
or endorsements where authority figures
might speak outside of their expertise
pay close attention to that one then we
have Tri
so messages that polarize opinions or
create Stark ingroups versus out groups
or exploit our tribal instincts for
example labeling groups as Patriots
versus traitors or scientific versus
deniers be very careful when you hear
that language finally we have emotion so
be wary of any communication that
triggers strong emotions like fear hope
or outrage without any clear verifiable
evidence so emotional responses suppress
critical thinking emotional responses
suppress critical thinking so as a tip
here analyze the evidence that's
presented to you if facts are replaced
by appeals to emotion you need to be
very very cautious as an example this
think about like a news channel
repeatedly showing images of empty
grocery shells and panic Shoppers during
a food supply scare it dominates every
broadcast and it pushes people into
fear-driven Behavior next question
novelty our brains are wired to focus on
Sudden or unusual changes because they
signal potential threats or
opportunities and this is an
evolutionary survival mechanism Sops
exploit this by creating events that
break normal expectations like
unexpected crises or dramatic
Revelations so ask yourself why is this
new so consider if the event or
somebody's message has been artificially
manufactured or timed look for patterns
like sudden shifts in public opinion
trending hashtag that are unusual or
viral videos that seem very coincidental
so for this one just picture a new viral
video just claims to expose a government
cover up but it conveniently comes out
the exact same day that there's some
damaging eviden against some
high-ranking official the timing shifts
public Focus all of this is part of the
NCI system I developed for teaching
tradecraft and extreme psychological
operations and there's even a gigantic
textbook for all of this stuff in the
description definitely not for everybody
but it's definitely the most
comprehensive guide in the world on this
stuff so next item look for multiple
sources centralized narratives create an
echo chamber and they silence dissent
and they narrow perspectives for example
if all media Outlets present identical
talking points it is a humongous red
flag so actively seek out contrarian or
independent voices even if they
challenge something that's already in
your head so in reality an example
during a maybe breaking Health crisis
all the major news outlets report on the
exact same study but independent
researchers revealed the study was
funded by a company selling the solution
so watch for that group speak next is
identify cognitive dissonance weapons
let's talk about how this works so
cognitive dissonance comes up when new
information clashes with our Identity or
our beliefs so Sops exploit the hell out
of this by uh including micro agreements
micro Agreements are little small
seemingly harmless concessions to shape
your identity and over time you're going
to unconsciously align your behavior to
reduce that internal conflict and as a
weaponization example of this a scop
might present you as a part of moral or
intelligent Enlightenment like only good
citizens do XYZ if you disagree with
that you risk some identity conflict
there so reflect on your identity and
ask am I being nudged to identify with
some other group so be very careful of
any campaigns that are asking for
seemingly minor commitments there like
signing petitions changing your profile
picture that evolves into some bigger
compliance or demand later as an example
of this let's say a company launches an
ad campaign and they claim real Patriots
by local if you disagree with their
product it feels like rejecting your
identity as a patriot so this pushes you
to conform be very very skeptical about
those identity statements next is
looking for those emotional scripts and
what I mean by this is the scripts that
were written in our brains by our
ancestors so manipulated narratives
trigger instincts like the fear of loss
or scarcity social rejection or danger
for example a a media story about food
shortages might activate survival
scripts that cause Panic buying and
stuff like that and we have scarcity
fear this is sudden warnings about
limited resources like water or medicine
also Sparks that kind of behavior and
then we have Tribal rejection these are
threats of being socially outcast fast
like you're selfish if you don't comply
and those things override logic every
time and as a tip for this break the
script by focusing on the facts like
what's the likelihood of this scenario
so compare the claims with other sources
for this just picture where a politician
says something like if we don't act now
our children will not have a future this
Taps into survival instincts those
ancestor scripts in our head and it's
tied to protecting offspring creates
urgency without any facts next is follow
the money so there's a trail of
beneficiaries here so identifying who
benefits always is going to reveal the
motive so look for funding sources like
sponsorships or political connections
that are tied to the narrative so use
tools like ops.org or public Financial
records to see who profits from this so
for policies or campaigns identify the
industries like Pharmaceuticals tech
companies Etc that stand to gain the
most so to illustrate this in your mind
right now picture a charity that's
promoting clean energy awareness and
they seem Noble until an investigations
are showing that it's funded by a solar
panel Corporation that's lobbying for
subsidies or something like that next
and this one is very important is
analyze the context boundary the
mechanism here is context and context
defines what is permissible so
manipulative people shift cont texts to
normalize extreme Behavior as an example
this in emergencies people accept
surveillance or martial law that they
normally would completely resist so ask
what is the context compare some similar
events in different settings to see if
the rules or responses seem
disproportionate look for contradictions
so for lots of the students who are
brand new to NCI University this right
here is the most massive realization
when they realize that the ability to
weaponize cognitive dissonance and then
shift the context can get anyone to do
almost anything as a hypothetical
example of this let's say there's a
major Cyber attack the governments are
now justifying some sweeping
surveillance laws to protect the
citizens this changes the context to
make previously unacceptable actions
seem absolutely necessary next spot the
use of archetypes because they're woven
into our brains Sops simplify narratives
by using Arch types like heroes and
villains and saviors some examples are
like portraying one leader as the sole
solution or demonizing denters as the
enemy deconstruct the story ask who are
the characters and what roles are they
playing simplistic like good versus evil
stories usually signal manipulation just
about every time so always seek Nuance
there in the real world you're going to
see something like maybe a leader is
repeatedly portrayed as a savior
fighting something that's pure evil and
the narrative ignores their mistakes and
oversimplifies the conflict to prevent a
lot of scrutiny next evaluate the frame
so let's do a stepbystep evaluation here
first one is expectation what are you
expected to believe or do based on this
thing that you're exposed to in the
media next is belief what assumptions
are being made about you like your value
views or your fears then we have
perception so how is reality being
shaped like selective facts or missing
contexts and definition is the final
step here when it comes to a frame what
truth is being asserted as something
that's completely unchallengeable this
comes up with information suppression so
really look for topics that are being
avoided critics that are being silenced
if somebody needs to be silenced in
order for an idea to make it then the
idea is not not good so alternative
viewpoints being discredited that's a
big one to look out for so cross check
timelines of events and notice if
critics are labeled conspiracists or if
algorithms are suppressing some kind of
specific search and this is a big one
especially in today's time so to get a
good example of this during maybe a
corporate Scandal the company's PR team
frames these critics as disgruntled
employees with a grudge so this shifts
the focus away from the legitimate
concerns to the motives of the critics
and it does it almost without us
realizing that that's happening in our
brain so next be alert to Rapid
compliance shifts this one is scary and
it's happening every day scops create
urgency to drive rapid compliance and
these tactics are stuff like emotional
appeals staged group behaviors or False
Consensus for this it's really important
to slow down down and resist the
pressure to act to question the
Conformity as much as possible and test
the message engaging the Skeptics there
so in the real world this might look
like maybe a viral social media
challenge urges all these users to adopt
this brand new symbol or profile picture
or hashtag kind of overnight and it
creates a wave of compliance so later
this is kind of like a foot in the door
technique it's tied to some device
divisive political agenda next study the
timing of the events and this one's huge
especially right now timing is
everything ask yourself why is this
happening now so what other events or
scandals might this thing be distracting
everybody from so look for very
coincidental timing with unrelated major
news stories or political movements
scops can very often be uh smoke screens
and real life you might see stuff like
uh a a huge celebrity breakup floods all
of the headlines exactly as some major
investigative report about government
corruption is about to be released
coincidence probably not the next thing
I want you to do is to sharpen your
brain to start hearing and understanding
these manipulation tactics and one of
the biggest things that you can do the
most effective way that I could train
you right now just you and me is to
teach your brain to recognize logical
fallacies so let's go through these
because scops very often use these
flawed arguments to convince people and
if you know how to spot them it makes
you a lot harder to manipulate let me
give you 10 of these so that your brain
gets hardwired to start seeing
everything a whole lot differently so
the first one that you're going to see
all the time appeal to emotion so this
uses fear and anger and hope to bypass
logic so like if you don't support
support this children are going to
suffer next is the straw man argument
this misrepresents somebody's argument
so they can attack it better so somebody
might say they oppose the lockdowns
because they don't care about lives
think about that one number three is the
bandwagon policy so this claims that
something is true because everyone
supports it and this is you hear this
all the time millions of people agree
with X Y and Z you should agree with it
too number four is the false dilemma
this presents only two extreme options
and it ignores Alternatives so it's the
either you're with us or you're against
us fallacy there number five is the ad
homonym attacks this is the attack of
the person and not the argument be very
observant for this so this is when you
hear you can't trust her she's not a
scientist you can't do X because they're
not qualified based on X ad homonym is
very common and I want your brain to be
able to spot it number six is appeal to
Authority and this is a claim that
something is true because an authority
figure said so so like Dr X supports it
so it's absolutely right you have to
trust the science number seven is the
slippery slope these are claims that one
action is going to lead to some extreme
negative outcome so you've heard this
before somebody says something like if
we allow this we're going to lose all of
our freedoms all of our freedom freedoms
are Gone the country is gone all of that
kind of talk like that be very attuned
to when you hear that and very cautious
when you hear that number eight Hasty
generalizations and these are broad
claims that are made with very little
evidence so the example is two
politicians lied so all of them must be
corrupt so giant claim tiny bit of
evidence two politicians might have lied
so they're all corrupt number nine is
huge it's the red herring so this
distract people with irrelevant
information you've heard this maybe as
an example when somebody says why are we
worrying about climate change when we
have so much crime going on right now
it's an argument of distraction number
10 is false equivalence this Compares
two things as equals when they're
absolutely not equal so you'll hear
somebody say something in the news
that's both sides have extremists so
they're exactly the same that's a very
I know there's a lot of information here
so I want to give you access to the
actual tool that we use to identify Sops
that even rates the likelihood on a 1 to
100 scale I'm going to add that into the
description right below this video but
keep this in mind throughout history the
people who stood tallest in the storm
were not the ones who knew all the
answers they were the ones who asked the
right questions they weren't the loudest
voices they were the calmest they were
the people that had composure thanks for
