1) PROLOGUE: Elections Are Wars (without the poetry)
For many years, every time November 11th comes around — known in most countries as Remembrance Day or Armistice Day, to commemorate the official end of the First World War — I have written a war poem as my own contribution and memorial to the wealth of war poetry which blossomed through extraordinary poets such as Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon who wrote from the trenches in that terribly wasteful-of-lives war, which took “half the seed of Europe, one by one”, as Owen put it in his poem “The Parable of the Old Man and the Young”, which uses the Bible story of Abraham and the sacrifice of Isaac as an effective literary device to show the grim reality of that war: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Parable_of_the_Old_Man_and_the_Young . (Captain Wilfred Owen died at the age of 25 in a hail of machine-gun fire on a bridge over the Sambre-Oise Canal near Ors in France on November 7th 1918, one week before Armistice Day).
The reason I write a war poem each year for November 11th is because I always want to keep alive the necessary literary critique of conflict in this world which those poets (especially Owen) instigated from the trenches. However, at the time of the US election in November 2016, I offered an extended passage of prose instead of poetry, in order to deal with a world development which I believe is rooted in outright bellicosity and what could easily be termed as a kind of military strategy. So, I presented a whole eBook entitled “War is Who We Are”, showing how the entire concept of war is built into the general conduct of our civilisation and that it does not merely occur on an official weaponised battlefield but in many ordinary aspects of societal life and relationships. [You can find that book for free download here: https://diakrisis-project.com/2022/11/10/new-book-war-is-who-we-are/ ].
When I observe election campaigns spread out over so many months, I feel strongly that a major war itself is being played out before our eyes and ears as a theatre to mesmerise and distract us from what is actually essential in human affairs. Not only are the candidates warring with each other but the whole event is a battle for our minds on the part of the power-elite which secretly controls all goings-on in public life, about which I will have more to say below.
All political elections are ideological wars dressed up as “democracy in action” in which there is not a trace of poetry. But this present election campaign in particular openly carries a war status and contrived theatricality which is more than any I have seen before. They just seem to increase in bellicose insanity with each new election.
It is as if people are being hoodwinked into participating in a dramatic farce of epic proportions — especially when you examine the true character of the candidates involved. When I investigate the lives and philosophies of the two candidates my mind boggles at the sheer hollowness and barrenness of these people (one of whom pretends to be a “Christian”), which only goes to show that they are frontline window-dressing rather than serious statespeople. I will develop what I mean by this further below.
I will say this right at the outset: If you vote in this or any election, then you are part of its adversarial conflict-driven war machine and are therefore a warmonger contributing to a pugnacious society based on adversarial principles, as well as perpetuating the corruption and mendacity of governmental manipulation. Here, in this solemn article, I will explain why…
Before going any further (and this constitutes our first main heading), there is a very basic element which we need to understand:
2) Presidents have no Power to Go Beyond what is Mandated of them by the Power Elite which Really Rules the World
With much surprise, I have watched so many people around me during recent months debating who would make the best or worst president and often expressing horror at the possibility of one or the other candidates coming to office, or even threatening to leave the country if their preferred candidate is beaten! They seem to assume that their president alone will have the power to make or break their worlds. What an astonishing delusion this is!
I guess that last sentence will be hard to take if you’ve been raised on Hollywood fantasy movies which depict presidents bossing everyone around, with lackeys bowing and scraping before them and obsequiously calling them “Mr President” in hushed tones, waiting for whatever wisdom drops from the president’s mouth before any action is taken. That, my friends, is pure propaganda. Your president is just window-dressing for the masses, a figurehead to keep those masses distracted and in a state of what I call “celebrity mesmerism” — by which (as in Hollywood with its glamorous, spellbinding “stars”) one is almost hypnotised by the image of the president, who is projected as a huge celebrity. The White House Correspondents’ Annual Dinner is designed to foster that presidential celebrity idea, with a stand-up comedy routine from the president each year in front of the world’s media who behave as little more than obsequious courtesans who will bend over backwards in order to curry favour with his office.
However, the truth is that your president has not only been carefully chosen and groomed for the role but he is also merely the ratifier and public endorser of what has already been decided behind closed doors by the people who really run the show (by which I mean the military, intelligence and corporate entities who themselves serve as conduits for the wishes and policies of even more secretive power-players in this world, whose fuel is darkness and whose desire is not for us all to be in a state of enlightened unity but, rather, to be divided, confused, distracted and in a continual state of fear). Like most wars, it has been deliberately generated and manipulated in order to further the ends of the power elite. The outcome is not something which is going to be left to chance. It has already long ago been decided who will “win”. The media (which is controlled by the power elite) will gladly assist in that process (while also masquerading as a “free press”) — though it has to be said that whoever “wins”, it does not ultimately matter because presidents have no power other than what has been granted by the power-elite which controls them.
For the media is but one part of a kind of ‘Triumvirate’ of departments or divisions acting overtly on behalf of the power-elite (the secret, as yet unrevealed, global ‘government’) in this world. These three ‘departments’ are: 1) The Enforcement Division; 2) The Entertainment Division; and 3) The Propaganda Division. This is how they keep everything covered. The Enforcement Division involves law enforcement, military, contractors, intelligence agencies and security services. The Entertainment Division involves presidents, prime ministers, politicians, governments, parliaments, senates & congresses. The Propaganda Division involves newspapers, journals, TV and news corporations. For the real power in this world does not lie in the ‘elected people’ in your parliaments and senates. A general election is the regular ‘reality drama production’ designed by that entertainment division on behalf of the secret global government of the power-elite for the purposes of diversion, distraction and illusory participation. At present, that global ‘government’ (consisting of certain ancient family lines, powerful institutions, military and security services, secret societies, banking, corporate, and other entities, which I will expand on below) remains secret to avoid public scrutiny or objections. It only acts overtly through the abovementioned ‘Triumvirate’.
Have you ever wondered why elections bounce from one winning party to the other without any major promises being fulfilled and the world not being in a better state than before but worse? Occasionally, the power-elite will throw the public a bone so that it appears as if that public has the power to change the world. For example in the 2008 election, one of those occasional bones was thrown. It effectively involved these words: “You want a saviour — a Messiah even? Well here he comes. The answer to your hopes and dreams”. A cool-looking dude who is young and with a darker complexion. Barack Obama. Perfect strategy. Full of empty nonsense. He played his part. (But where is he now?!?).
What better way to make you think that you are on the brink of utopia in a ‘post-racial’ universe? Suddenly, all the damage done in the previous eight years is dissolved in their minds as they whoop with joy at the false hope paraded before them. But the power-elite was merely playing (preying) upon the hopes and dreams of desperate people. They have no intention whatsoever of giving up their positions of power. Not at all. But even though you are permitted the illusion of changing a crazy or warmongering President for one who appears to be more humane and liberal, the real work behind the scenes does not change at all. And any president who doesn’t play ball with them will be removed from office and even from this life just like John Fitzgerald Kennedy. JFK went way too far in attempting to ring in his pet changes. From the standpoint of the power-elite, he had to go.
A president’s only role, as far as the power-elite are concerned, is to maintain the status quo. The status quo is about keeping the corporations swimming in money, keeping the military and intelligence agencies involved in occupations and interventions (which also keeps the corporations swimming in money) and keeping the people in ignorance and darkness (which also keeps the corporations, one way or another, swimming in money). Anyone who tries to step beyond those demarcation lines will be “JFKed”. John Fitzgerald Kennedy — although he had his faults and foibles — was a president who sought to go beyond the status quo and interfere with the ‘toys for the boys’ and he paid for it with his life. He had already removed Allen Dulles from his role as head of the CIA (especially because of the Bay of Pigs fiasco, not to mention the fact that the CIA was found to be enlisting Mafia hitmen as assassins) and JFK was even threatening to dismantle the CIA altogether. It was said that he was going to “splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds” [See “CIA: Marker of Policy or Tool?”, New York Times. April 25, 1966]. Also, along with his Attorney-General brother, Robert F. Kennedy, he was devoted to bringing down the mafia and organised crime. You don’t last long in high office when you make naïve threats like that! Going it alone is not required of any president.
The heart of the dirty tricks, black ops and grubby business in the USA is the CIA/Military/Mafia enclave. Tinker with that sort of power and you’ll be brought down big-time. JFK must have been spinning in his grave to see Allen Dulles on the 8-member Warren Commission investigating Kennedy’s assassination, after he begged LBJ to be a part of it! Lee Harvey Oswald a lone gunman? Don’t make me laugh. Thus, any president who imagines that he can totally reverse the bad stuff of a previous incumbent will be taken down before you can say the words “Dallas 1963”. Real, lasting, permanent change for a more peaceful and free world will not — cannot — happen through politicians or presidents (or any other human being , for that matter).
No doubt many people will be irate to read what has been written so far in this piece. Some will be incensed beyond belief. But not only will I not retract a word (unless it can be shown to be false according to facts and not the common rampant speculation of today) but I will go further than I have already gone by saying that the whole presidential election roadshow is a mere rehearsal for the events of the future, as I will develop below.
The power-elite love to experiment with our psyches to see how far they can go with their audacious mind-control projects. At one time such experiments (MK-Ultra) would be conducted by intelligence agencies on a comparatively small, unknown and (from their point of view) ‘expendable’ element of the population (e.g. prisoners, prostitutes, mental hospital inmates, or Californian hippies). [I have provided copious evidence of this, if you doubt it, in a little book, entitled “Discerning the Signs of the Times: The CIA & Subversion through Mind-Control, Satanism, Sorcery, & the Use of Religion & Cults as Tools of the New World Order”, which you can download freely from this link here: https://diakrisis-project.com/2022/09/14/new-book-discerning-the-signs-of-the-times/ ]. Today, they brazenly toy with the mass of people’s minds in election campaigns which are really psychological operations in themselves. Understanding this process is a vital part of our self-education. (And how crazy is it — and what an affront to world hunger — that the combined election campaigns of two candidates cost more than a staggering billion dollars? That fact alone should disgust us, particularly because it is all just an empty bit of theatre).
We are living in an age in which evil is coming to its necessary head, as I have written about elsewhere in depth. No human being is going to come forward who will be able to change that in any fundamentally significant manner. The darkness is too intrinsically embedded. They may present themselves as if they can. But it is all a theatre, and the build up to the finale is happening and will continue happening until it becomes ready for the supernatural intervention at the end of this present age, which (please God) may not be too far away.
This world is moving towards a scenario which will make Orwell’s masterpiece, “1984” (essential reading for all self-educators), seem like a girl scout’s garden party. All the elements are falling into place. We need to awaken from our slumber and see these nonsensical elections for what they really are: The stealing of people’s minds and the swaying of their hearts to turn them into obedient and deluded automatons who believe what they are told but are really being bought and sold.
Which brings us to our next heading…
3) The US President is Nothing More than a Rotating Graphical User Interface (GUI) for a Gullible Public
The power structure of this world is not at all what it appears to be to the unsuspecting and naïve members of the public. It operates on a number of different levels. Externally, one has governments (propped up by international bankers, corporations, police, military and intelligence services) manipulating and pulling some superficial strings, with the media ensuring that the right spin is always fed to the people who must be kept in a continual state of ignorance and sheer stupidity. But at the next level down, below the level of visibility, there are the military actions, black ops, sordid intelligence agencies and organised crime cartels such as the CIA, NSA, KGB/FSB, MI5/MI6, Mossad and the myriad Mafiosi, etc. (and which all cooperate with each other to maintain the corrupt status quo of this fallen world). Then, at the next level down, even further below the level of visibility, there are the power-cabals and secret societies such as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission, the Bilderbergers, the Freemasons (higher degrees), the Knights of Malta, the Skull & Bones, etc. At the back of all that, there are the elite dynasties (e.g. the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Warburgs and Harrimans, etc.) — aristocratic family lines of the world who clandestinely control the direction of world affairs through the banking system and major corporations (of which especially those involved in defence components/contracts, energy production, pharmaceuticals, major law firms), etc. It is these who are the real “Powers that Be” which make all decisions relating to your future and who will do all that they can to ensure that only the few truly curious and dogged (who can always safely be publicly derided as “kooks” and conspiracy theorists) will ever know much about them.
Please tell me how one little man can stand up to that vast network of corruption? Anyone who has dared to take it on has been liquidated. Although the existence of the network really goes back much further in antiquity, one of its first real blatant (i.e. public) intrusions into recent national politics was the killing of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, which was a clear warning to any other “meddlers” in world affairs.
The ‘Powers that Be’ feed on the ignorance and naïveté of the population. They stage an election campaign every few years just to give you the illusion that you have chosen your leader(s). This is the grand delusion. For they are simply getting you to endorse someone who they have earmarked for the job — someone who will do their bidding — someone who has already sold their soul to them for a position of power. When we play their game at election time, we are merely feeding their power-games.
This is why I say that the image of the President of the USA which is so often presented in Hollywood films (e.g. Pearl Harbor, Independence Day, etc.), depicting him as a powerful, dependable leader — a safe pair of hands — to whom everyone defers on every issue, is just so wide of the mark as to be laughable.
The President of the USA is merely a rotating public GUI (Graphical User Interface) to woo the gullible population while the tenebrous characters who really hold the reins of power remain unchanged. Once one realises that the President of the USA does not run the country but that the country is really run by powerful unelected people who run the President, then one also sees that there is a cleverly-devised scheme in place which ensures that they always get their way, no matter who is in office.
It is in this respect that the two-party adversarial system is so helpful to their objectives. It appears to the unsuspecting public as though there is a choice, but Republican and Democrat are merely two sides of the same bent coin. Thus, although democracy doesn’t really exist anywhere in the Western world, the ‘Powers that Be’ want to maintain the pretence of it until such time as even all appearances of it will be ready to be dissolved by them, as indeed will happen, for the world isn’t quite ready to acquiesce to global totalitarianism, though it will when the time is right, and the right ‘world leader’ comes forth. In the meantime, they work with the system as it is, milking it for all it’s worth.
4) The Clear Evidence for a “Double-Government”
So if and when you vote next month for a president, the choice you make will change absolutely nothing and is a complete waste of time and energy — despite all the glitziness over recent months on your TV screens and in the media. For the people who really (secretly) run the affairs of this world and your country will never be subjected to any vote. Neither will they be affected by any election or anything else that you can do, say or think. Your president is merely window-dressing — an artificial “saviour” whose role is to distract you and who has the power to save nothing. It is the height of ignorance and naivety to believe otherwise. This is the reality of political life.
All this is NOT conspiracy theory but reality fact, openly available as evidence to be checked and confirmed. In a mainstream book published in 2014 by Oxford University Press, of which 99.9% of the human race will most likely be completely unaware, written by a Professor of International Law and former Legal Counsel to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the author shows why nothing of any real importance changes from one US government to the next, regardless of the professed political ideology and intentions of all the parties and presidents involved. This 260-page book is entitled “National Security and Double Government” and was published exactly ten years ago. Although primarily addressing the situation in the USA, it is plainly applicable to any other nation’s political system.
In its pages, Michael J. Glennon shows that the roles of President, Congress and the courts are an illusion built up by propaganda in the minds of the mass of people. “Presidential control is nominal, congressional oversight is dysfunctional, and judicial review is negligible”. In this book, Prof. Glennon proves that “security” policy has nothing to do with elected leaders and governments but is really made by several hundred prime movers in the military, intelligence, diplomatic and law enforcement agencies — hence, the idea of “double” government in the title, which clearly implies a “shadow” or “secret” unelected government.
Those who have reviewed this book have been entirely convinced of its veracity. Reviewer Jordan Michael Smith, in his “Books of the Year 2014” in The Boston Globe, wrote: “Elected officials end up serving as mere cover for the real decisions made by the bureaucracy”. Another reviewer, Andrew J. Bacevich, Professor of History and International Relations in Boston University, states: “In our faux democracy, those we elect to govern serve largely ornamental purposes, while those who actually wield power, especially in the realm of national security, do so chiefly with an eye toward preserving their status and prerogatives”. Faux democracy! Exactly. Strong words. But if even staid mainstream academics can understand this, why can’t everyone else, without making accusations of “conspiracy theory”?
Why do so many believe that a president is of any relevance whatsoever, other than as window-dressing — serving “largely ornamental purposes”, as Prof. Bacevich stated above? The president as “Commander-in-Chief” of the United States of America is a clever illusion fostered in the minds of the people in order to lull them into a passive mindset so that they will leave him to get on with the job which they imagine he will do while seeing only a romanticised character every time he appears on television.
The stark reality is that if a president starts to act above his station and gets silly ideas about reforming or changing the world, he will get a terrible shock. This was demonstrated in the presidency of John Fitzgerald Kennedy. The Kennedy brothers were punching way above their pay-grade in their ambitions to dismantle the CIA and face down organised crime! Presidents are not placed in office by the power elite to reform society or change the status quo. They are there to prop up the status quo and maintain it in the ways that they are instructed to do! If they try to step outside those limitations, they will soon wake up next to a hooker in a motel with a photographer conveniently present, or they will have a tyre blow out on a freeway over a bridge with a mistress in the car, or they will be shot in the head by a patsy in broad daylight in a motorcade on a street in Dallas! Job done.
In 2008, I compiled an investigative article, entitled “The Truth About the Connections of Barack Obama”, to show that he was as corrupt as any other politician. He was a big part of the Chicago scene of political corruption. If you ask me, I can send you that article. It has never been published. I could easily compile a similar article about a corrupt man like Trump, a false “Christian” and master-manipulator. They are all up to their eyes in dirt. These days, I just can’t be bothered putting it all together. Few are interested anyway. Like little robots, mannikins and puppets, they will still go on voting and believing the lie (and supporting the darkness).
This is the great failure of “democracy”. It is also one of the coups de grace of the ‘Powers that Be’ in their deception of the people. They get people to put a cross on a piece of paper every four years or so and then tell them that they have partaken in a wonderful thing called Democracy which is even worth killing for. They say that many people already gave their lives in order to achieve the vote for us so we must feel super-guilty if we don’t vote ourselves. But, as can be seen in the election of Barack Obama — public opinion is easier to manipulate than a broomstick in a tub of molten lard! To put a cross on a piece of paper every four years and think that we’ve somehow participated meaningfully in the making of a leader and the political process and the beneficial development of the world is so woefully inadequate in terms of true democracy as to be utterly laughable.
We imagine we can attain freedom and rid the world of evil by giving high office to some guy who simply has the best PR machine! How ridiculous! Freedom can never be attained by absolving ourselves of responsibility for the world by handing power over to a clever PR manipulator. But the Power-Elite wants us to believe that this is possible. Even though we’ve been let down over and over again we still continue to believe it, like the punch-drunk boxer who foolishly keeps staggering across the ring into the path of his opponent’s punishing glove!
5) The Only ‘Winner’ in any National Election is Public Relations Chicanery
Here is a reality check for you: It is PR which determines the outcome of presidential elections rather than any innate statesmanlike ability on the part of the candidates. Barack Obama spent $750 million USD on his election campaign. The opposition, John McCain, spent $480 million USD on his campaign — a combined cost of more than $1.2 billion USD. The 2016 election campaign between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton involved spending of almost $1 billion USD. The 2020 election campaign between Donald Trump and Joe Biden involved spending of $1.85 billion USD. The 2024 election campaign between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is projected to be the most expensive ever with an expenditure way exceeding any previous election. As far as the office of president is concerned, only big-money people can apply. Money talks — especially in the world of PR and spin via the media.
One of the “founding fathers” of Public Relations as we know it today was the Viennese-born Edward L. Bernays (1891-1995) who emigrated to the USA with his parents in 1892. Bernays was the nephew of the founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud. His mother, Anna, was Freud’s sister. Bernays described his uncle as his mentor whose theories of the “unconscious” influenced his ideas concerning the manipulation of the thinking of the masses. It is widely recognised today that Bernays laid the ground for all the spin-doctoring of today. In late 1991, Life Magazine named Bernays as one of the most influential men in the history of the USA, yet most people have never even heard of him! He was a prolific writer on PR techniques and served as personal PR advisor (spin-doctor) to many of the famous and influential — including US Presidents and other leaders, from Eleanor Roosevelt and Dwight D. Eisenhower to Golda Meir (Prime Minister of Israel, 1969-1974).
It was more than ironic that Bernays, who was Jewish, should have been one of the key influences (especially through his book “Crystallizing Public Opinion”) on the life and thought of Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s Minister of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda! Bernays’ books lived on Goebbels’ library shelves and shaped the thinking of this Nazi social engineer in his selling of Hitler and his policies to the gullible public. Any portentous bells ringing here?
Bernays’ many books have shaped the manipulative policies of the governments of the Western world throughout the past eighty years. One of these was entitled “Propaganda”, written in 1927. Here are a couple of quotes:
“If we understand the mechanisms and motives of the group mind, it is now possible to control and regiment the masses according to our will without their knowing it”. [“Propaganda”, Edward L. Bernays, p.71. Emphasis added].
And again:
“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate the unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of”. [Ibid. Emphasis added].
Bear in mind that Bernays was not at all disapproving of these manipulations but encouraging of them. Note especially how the phrase “democratic society” has been used here. To read the works of Bernays is to discover the Big Lie which lurks behind all government propaganda — especially concerning their alleged fostering of democracy. All democracy is a form of incipient totalitarianism in disguise. For the people who are elected “by the people” are not the people who rule their country. As Bernays says, there is “an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country”. Invisible government. Double government. These unelected entities are the true ruling powers.
In 1955, Bernays edited a book about how democracy should work, entitled “The Engineering of Consent”, a phrase which he actually used as a definition of public relations. Think about that phrase carefully: The engineering of consent. Is that not what so-called democracy today is really all about? The manipulation of the people into making a choice which they think of as their own but which has really been dictated for them is the engineering of their consent. Is it any wonder that Bernays’ techniques have been so much in use by allegedly “democratic” politicians as well as Nazi manipulators? Truly, the legacy of Bernays in political and governmental circles has been massive. Yet most people in the world have never even heard of this man who has shaped their world.
Government propaganda based on PR models of manipulation now moulds and controls people’s minds in ways never before imagined. [See details of this in “What Orwell Didn’t Know: Propaganda & the New Face of American Politics”, by Andras Szanto, Public Affairs, 2007]. This was especially so with the PR-manipulated UK election of Tony Blair at the helm of the “New Labour” Party in 1997, which was merely ‘Stalinism Lite’ disguised as democratic socialism. The election campaign and subsequent victory of Obama in 2008 was also a triumph of PR and marketing, mingled with naïve people’s desperation for what they imagined to be a true statesman. As one observer of public relations states:
“A single public relations professional with access to media, a basic understanding of mass psychology, and a fistful of dollars can unleash in society forces that make permanent winners out of otherwise-evident losers — whether they be products, politicians, corporations or ideas”. [“Toxic Sludge is Good for You: Lies, Damn Lies, and the Public Relations Industry”, John C. Stauber and Sheldon Rampton, Common Courage Press, 1995].
Exactly. Point made. As stated above “The President is just a rotating GUI (Graphical User Interface) to woo the gullible public while the tenebrous characters who really hold the reins (reigns?) of power remain unchanged”. All he has to do is go along with the status quo and smooth the pathway for the plans of the ‘Powers that Be’. Let’s face it, Presidents have come and gone over the years but no matter who has been in that role the USA has continued to carry out its programme of subversion by stealth of all those countries which can be useful to their cause or which have proved an irritant to it. All the wars and coups d’etats have continued unabated no matter who has been in power. The Democratic party is just as corrupt as the Republican, yet each thinks they hold the high moral ground. It is all just laughable. Illusions. The world lives in illusions and lives the Lie. Yet, they will ridicule what I am writing here and dismiss me as a “conspiracy theorist” who is “ungrateful for all that so many have died for” just as surely as a sociopath or narcissist dismisses those who see through him or her as being “delusional”.
No matter who is in the presidential office, there will be no undoing of any of the great evil that has been done by any previous administrations. On the contrary, through the Pentagon and the CIA, the US will carry on its policy of subversion and terrorism across the world. The military will carry on waging the illegal wars that the power cabals and corporations want them to wage. Wall Street will continue to embezzle, and the media will continue to muzzle and bedazzle with trivia and disinformation.
The sheer naivety (or is it wilful ignorance) of people today is what is most astonishing about the US presidential election. So much do people want to be controlled and herded about by corrupt proxy governments like docile sheep that they would rather believe the lies issued by those governments than know the truth about them. Once, when I was speaking to someone about this matter of presidents, he said “I know what you’re saying is true but I refuse to take it on board”. He deliberately opted not to deal with it in his mind or in his life. I have had this said to me in many other situations too, when, for example, I have proffered some theological truth-bomb which is then doggedly resisted, even though acknowledged to be true. Wilful ignorance.
More than twenty years ago, I became acquainted with a guy who had served as a cop (rising to appointment as a detective) in Cleveland, Ohio. He was a very affable, intelligent man. When he read some of my writings (especially those which implicated the role of the USA in international skulduggery and conspiracies) he became deeply disturbed. He wrote to me saying that he was going to investigate it all with his skills as a policeman to prove me wrong and I would be hearing from him. I was happy with that. I love real investigators. A few months later, I received an email which said, “I am a broken man. You have pulled the rug out from under everything which I have been taught and believed in all my life”. Obviously, one has to counsel such an honest person of integrity with care. But this just shows what is at stake when one is truth-telling and why it is that people of less honesty and integrity are so desperate to prove it ‘wrong’. In a world such as the one in which we live, truth is more explosive than nitroglycerin, and free spirits who will not conform to lies become anathematised!
These are strange times in which we are living. A refusal to open one’s eyes to what is happening in a spiritually-insightful manner will eventually mean that one will be swept away on a tide of chaos and martial law with nothing but confusion and betrayal in one’s heart. How did we come to this vacuous state of affairs? In order to understand this better, let us go into it a little more.
6) The Deep Spiritual Significance of These Matters
First, in order to demonstrate the relevance and substance of these thoughts, I want to show that this is not merely a political matter; it is also primarily of deep spiritual significance. To be a truly spiritual person does not merely mean being able to practise hundreds of yoga positions, or meditate using a certain technique, or sleep with the right essential oil under your pillow, or owning a bagful of crystals, or getting “blissed-out” in a ‘soundbath’, or knowing how to travel on the astral plane, or being a Reiki master, or posting lots of quotes from Rumi, Wayne Dyer, Eckhart Tolle or Deepak Chopra on Facebook. None of those things are definitive signs of being spiritually awake — although such fashionable “virtue-signalling” on social media is often mistaken for being so.
However, the reality is that truly waking up spiritually has a huge “knock-on effect” on one’s perceptions in everyday life, which has far-reaching consequences for one’s activities (though it can also be the cause of some discomfort and surprise). For waking up spiritually will naturally involve becoming acutely aware of all the deception and skulduggery in the world. It doesn’t matter how “spiritually-correct” one appears to be in one’s projected image on social media; the facts are as follows:
- A genuinely spiritually-awake soul is one who refuses to be “taken for a ride” in ANY sense — whether by politicians, mainstream media pundits, doorstep confidence tricksters, phony gurus or evil spirits. Put simply, a genuinely spiritually-awake person will not fall for propaganda of ANY kind.
- A genuinely spiritually-awake person will not hold out false hopes for the world to be “saved” by some politician, party or president pushing an agenda within the same old set-up of greed, consumerism, corruption and hypocrisy.
- A genuinely spiritually-awake person will not settle for perpetuating the myths, lies, and delusions of the present world-system through voting in a fraudulent political process. On the contrary…
- A genuinely spiritually-awake person will stand up for truth in every situation, regardless of the impact it could have on his or her life.
- A genuinely spiritually-awake person has completely washed his or her hands of passive participation in all national political systems and structures.
- A genuinely spiritually-awake person has, as his or her desire, the complete renewing of the self from its current enslavement to darkness to a liberation into the light through a personal inner revolution (known theologically as metanoia) leading to a wholly revised perception of the outer world.
- A genuinely spiritually-awake person knows that all the inner santificational work which s/he does has an effect not only in his or her life but also on the way he or she relates to the whole world of planetary matter.
- A genuinely spiritual human being knows that a fundamental part of being spiritual is seeing through (and having no part in) deception of any kind. In fact, to be spiritual means awakening from deception of every type. One doesn’t just wake up spiritually and then continue to believe in and endorse a dark culture through participating unquestioningly in that culture. That would be impossible as it would be a manifestation of the very cognitive dissonance from which one has escaped! For cognitive dissonance completely contradicts the integrated mind of the truly spiritually-awakened human.
- A genuinely spiritual human being is decidedly counterculture to the satanically-influenced culture of the world.
- A genuinely spiritually-awake person could not spend an evening gawping at a television screen, being contaminated by its corrupting programming, or watching most of the movies which come out of Hollywood (which serve to programme the unawakened mind and initiate it into glamour and amorality).
Becoming genuinely spiritual means waking up from the slumber of illusion — coming out of a state of sleepwalking through the wilderness of this world — not just in hypercosmic terms but also in an earthly context. For if we cannot penetrate illusion and deception on a simple physical level, how will we ever persevere with insight on the spiritual plane (where there is also much deception and distraction for the unwary soul)? That is a basic logical concept, arguing from the lesser to the greater. Thus, without becoming obsessed with (or morbidly interested in) deception, the spiritually-advancing person fascinatedly seeks to develop an awareness of how subterfuge works, where it exists, and how to discard it from his or her life, inwardly and outwardly. In fact, it becomes a kind of game: Spot the illusion! You grow to love playing that serious game. If I can put it like this… if we are truly spiritual, we dis-illusion ourselves — we strip off all illusions, intentionally and willingly, with a cool sense of detachment from their snares. Those who wish to bury their heads in the sand or who only ever think about “positive” things will not only be deceived bigtime in their lives but they will also remain in an extremely immature spiritual and emotional state while perpetuating a corrupt and largely defunct political system. In other words, the genuinely spiritually-aware person has what I call a built-in “Bullshitometer” (pronounced like thermometer) within his or her being. It is simply not spiritually savvy to be taken in by bullshit on ANY level, whether spiritual or worldly. In fact, it is downright foolish and irresponsible and plays straight into the hands of the demonic realm!
Yes, that’s right! I said, “demonic realm”. Does that surprise you? We are living in a world which is the “theatre of war” for a vast spiritual battle stretching back over aeons. That vast spiritual battle is what lies at the heart of the Bible from start to finish. Laying my cards on the table concerning the backcloth to my above statements about genuine spirituality, I am an unashamed disciple of the Christ, who is God manifested in the flesh a couple of thousand years ago with the expressed intention of overturning the hold of the demonic realm over human hearts which is what He did, though that will not be wholly visibly ratified until the end of this age. Although souls will continue to be saved out of this world, the demonic realm, under its leader, Satan, does everything it can to establish its usurper kingdom on earth which, as is prophesied, will culminate in a global government under a single leader, known in the Bible as the “man of lawlessness” (Second Letter to the Thessalonians, chapter 2, verse 3), who the apostle John called the Antichrist (First Letter of John, chapter 2, verse 18). The world of politics provides the perfect playground for the demonic realm to do its thing in relation to its kingdom building leading up to these prophesied events. This accounts for why there is so much conniving, skullduggery, mendacity, posturing and false virtue in the world of politics.
Religious people in the Christian scene will often naively teach that one should get really involved in politics in order to infuse a Christian presence there. They often imagine that Christians should get involved in this in order to “Christianise” the world. They teach that one should always support the government, whatever it does (unless it specifically makes laws against Christian teaching). I remember when the vast majority of Christians in the USA supported the illegal invasion of Iraq in April 2003 in ‘Operation Shock and Awe’, even though it was based on utter lies. They are taught that because one of the writers in the Bible, the Apostle Paul, advised the Roman Christians to “submit to the authorities”, it must therefore be applicable to all Christians of all time to go along submissively with absolutely everything the government says and does. This is nonsense. There were a number of violent revolutionary groups at the time when the Christ appeared. Many expected him to head up such a group and overthrow the Romans by force (Judas Iscariot was an example of those who were expecting a political Messiah, which was why he betrayed Christ after he realised his expectations would not be met). Thus, it was important to keep sight of the fact that the Light of Christ did not offer political salvation but promised spiritual liberation from the powers of darkness, death and lawlessness. Advising followers of the Christ at the time to submit to the authorities simply meant, in effect, “do not pick fights with the government by pointless civil disobedience, being rude and disrespectful, or refusing to obey the benign laws of the land”. It did not mean agreeing with absolutely everything the government said or did and it certainly did not mean vocally supporting barbaric governmental actions. Many disciples of Christ in the early church refused governmental edicts to worship idols and they died for it. They did not submit to the authorities in all aspects and certainly did not do so if their consciences before Christ could not be squared with it. Many disciples of Christ in the early church were actually conscientious objectors refusing to fight in the Roman army. In this way, too, they did not submit to the authorities. And neither should we, if our Christian conscience dictates against it.
A true disciple and follower of Christ, although generally obeying the laws of the land which keep order in society, will not glorify the godless government of that land or unquestioningly support all its activities. I will gladly submit to a street search by a cop. They are just doing their job keeping an orderly society and I would have nothing to hide. I appreciate order. I don’t need to make a song and dance about “my rights” (especially as I am more concerned about “my duties”). A minute or two of minor inconvenience doesn’t bother me.
But there are several aspects of governmental legislation to which I would not submit. I will not fight in their proxy wars to milk or manipulate a region. I will not submit to silly political correctness and phoney “hatecrimes” (which are simply ways of suppressing Truth and gagging rational opinions). I will not obey any human law which goes against natural law, the law of God or spiritual freedom. Neither will I bow and scrape before some monarch, president or prime minister, for I have yet to come across one that I would even regard as sane, nevermind being a role model! I will always show respect where it is due, but I will never engage in toadying obedience for its own sake.
Those who allegedly rule are servants too. They are servants of the people and also God’s servants; though the vast majority imagine they rule in their own right and they have only achieved rank because they have money and exercise ruthlessness (the majority being at least godless sociopaths, if not full-blown psychopaths). Frankly, if the rulers of the nations of the earth would “kiss the Son” (a prophetic symbol of paying homage and giving allegiance to the Christ in the mighty Psalm 2), then the world would be developing along very different lines to what it is today. But they do not and they will not, and so the world staggers on to its cataclysmic denouement of Divine judgement.
To summarise, one needs to be spiritually transformed before one could be truly useful in the social arena, because one would then have no vested interest politically. The wise spiritually transformed soul knows very well that the whole world lies under the power of the fallen archangel, Satan (First Letter of John, chapter 5, verse 19) and the business of the Christian soul is not to waste time trying to turn the world into a utopia — which would mean being ‘on a hiding to nothing’, wasting time — but, rather, to pluck souls for Christ out of this present dystopia.
7) The Darkness of this Aeon
We have to always bear in mind that this is a very dark world in which we currently live. As the apostle Paul called it, “the present evil age” (Letter to the Galatians, chapter 1, verse 4). I know you may want to believe otherwise and your positive thinking guru will have misleadingly told you that you shouldn’t ever think about all this because it creates “negative energy”. But exposing the negative is actually positive — whether it is revealing the negative elements in ourselves or in the world! This is the spiritually-mature view. For it shows us what we are really dealing with in the world, how to live in a right and authentic way while it is happening, as well as filling us with encouragement. Now you may say: “What! How could thinking about a dark world possibly fill us with encouragement?” It will do that because I will ensure that it is put in a beautiful context that will show you where the light is in all of this. So… please walk with me for a while…
I said above that it is a very dark world in which we live. Progressively so. I could have said “in which we live today”. But really it is no darker in relative terms today than it was in the so-called “Dark Ages” more than 1000 years ago or even 2000 or 3000 years ago or more. It’s just that there are many more ignorant people now to be manipulated and used and the power elite, both human and otherwise (yes, I said “otherwise”!) has had a lot longer to perfect its hegemony over the masses (generations upon generations), as well as to create the technology and mass communications in order to make that possible.
The aeon through which we have been passing since the coming of the Christ — and which will one day come to an end — is especially characterised by conflict, brutality, acquisition, vanity, narcissism, self-centredness, manipulation, deception, idolatry, wilful ignorance, domination, fear, authoritarianism, the ruthless accrual of power, competition, dependency, dread, materialism and, more latterly, compensatory consumerism. I say “compensatory” because we feel the urge to consume materially in such a voracious manner in order to compensate for the spiritual, existential emptiness which dwells within. With so many reduced to a mere shell and living in a state of alienation from an awareness of the stupendous, miraculous power of God, it is hardly surprising that society in the more “developed”, supposedly “civilised” (but empty) world has become so rabidly consumerist. Emptiness in the immature soul always craves to be filled with trifles.
Of course, there is also much to marvel at within the confines of this world. Sunsets have not disappeared yet. Fireflies still cavort luminously in the twilight. Baby elephants are still outrageously cute. Laughter (in between the tears) is still possible. The Moon, Venus, Saturn, Mars and Jupiter look ravishing right now in the clear night sky. One can still be struck by the arrows of love (and fire them too!). Acts of kindness can still be found in the most unlikely places. And so much more! But none of that negates the burgeoning reality of an overwhelming darkness as the power-elite increasingly strengthens its hold on the world (clinging onto what it knows it can ultimately only lose) as the old aeon marches towards the new, while wickedness multiplies, consciences are increasingly cauterized, and the love of most grows cold on this planet, just as has been prophesied (e.g. Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verses 10-14).
It is no coincidence that there are no great works of symphonic music being written anymore, while most of what passes as “art” in the public realm today is superficial, pretentious and meaningless — a true expression of the collective consciousness of corrupted old aeon humanity. When great symphonies and other wonderful works were being written and played and great masterpieces of art were being created, they were like shafts of light bursting through the darkness. But now we are in the midst of a downward spiral of increasing velocity and madness — a maelstrom of burgeoning but necessary chaos. “Necessary” because from out of the ashes of this present age will spring the new heaven and new earth where government in the conventional sense will be completely unnecessary and anachronistic, for the curse will have been removed and all will have been made new (Book of Revelation, chapter 21, verse 5; chapter 22, verse 3). The dystopian elements of this present aeon are both its death-throes and the birth-pains of the new aeon to come. There is a sense in which that new aeon society has already started subjectively in the minds, spirits and lives of those who have submitted themselves to its Creator. Though there are tough times ahead before the new aeon comes to pass and manifests in objective full-dimensional reality.
Our purpose on earth is not to hide in fear and ignorance from darkness (whether in ourselves or “out there”) but to be aware enough of it to avoid being bamboozled by it and even unwittingly overtaken by it (as is happening hugely today). For darkness most often disguises itself as light. This masquerade is the essence of this ageing aeon of deception and dehumanisation. This is what the power-players on this earth are engaged in right now: presenting darkness disguised as light. Thus, when they promise security they mean slavery. When they promise protection they mean subjection. When they promise prosperity they mean increased consumption and injustice. When they promise “full disclosure” they mean a whitewash and obfuscation. When they promise victory they mean genocide. When they promise a “New World Order” they mean godless global hegemony and totalitarianism.
Any seemingly major event in the world — such as, for example, a presidential election — has therefore to be seen against this backdrop of burgeoning mendacity and darkness. We must exercise the most extreme caution here. For one of the leading features of this darkness is deception. Behind all the front-of-house activities and even behind the theatre stage itself, there is a backstage where all the scriptwriting and casting takes place. A classic example of this at work can be seen in the field of politics. So accustomed have we become to being told “we live in a democracy”, we cannot see the trick which is being worked on us. There is no democracy. Anywhere. Period. A backstage elite of family lines, bankers, intelligence networks, corporate powerbrokers, armaments and pharmacological manufacturers and other movers and shakers hold the real reins of power in this world (though there is another, deeper, darker, discarnate layer even behind that). However, in order to mask the darkness, a whole system of politics has been developed in which voting is a little theatrical front-of-house sideshow they have set up for people so that they imagine there is some kind of democratic process in which to be involved in order to change things. But it doesn’t change anything. Ever. Haven’t you yet noticed that your vote changes nothing? Mostly, political activity is about as effective as moving the deckchairs around on the Titanic. You vote for some ham actors who are full of promises and ideals. A few years later it is shown to be a pack of lies and hot air. So you vote for a new lot, which is then shown to be another pack of lies and hot air a few years after that. And so the merry show goes on… and on… and on.
8) Governmental Window Dressing
The reason for this is because the people for whom you vote do not actually run your country. Congresses, Parliaments, Senates, Bundestags, etc. are just window-dressing. Your vote is what is known in their trade as “engineered consent” — a phrase first coined as an essay/book title in 1947 by (as mentioned earlier) the “father” of Public Relations (and nephew of Sigmund Freud), Edward Bernays. In that work, he argued that the consent of the people had to be socially-engineered in order for society to function properly. We can see the “engineered consent” taking place each election time, when people are made to think that they are deciding their future but the power-elite-owned media primes people on who to vote for. It looks like a serious business with all the commentary and razzmatazz surrounding elections but it is just one big show specially put on to drag you into the illusion that you have a choice in your social future. The power-elite fosters this illusion because it serves their purpose, for the time being, as they drip-feed their way to their planned future totalitarian world government — all the while hiding behind this pretended “democracy” so as to conceal their hegemonic intentions as well as to prevent the all-out popular rebellion which could possibly happen if they revealed their long-term plans too soon.
In the meantime, the aim of the power-elite through their government lackeys is to make you feel that security from mayhem and chaos can ONLY be found in their protective shelter. They intensify that feeling each time they deliberately create an atrocity to shock the world (e.g. 9/11, 7/7, Paris attacks, pandemic, etc.). When the time comes for them to reveal their true intentions, the world will — apart from any insightful dissidents and disciples of Christ remaining alive at that time — be so shell-shocked from the chaos which the power-elite will have induced that they will accept anything as being good for them — even a global totalitarian regime.
I know this is very hard for left-wing people especially to take in. Right-wing types vote to preserve a conservative status quo. Left-wing types vote to bring about social change. (So they think). The latter must therefore desperately hold on to the idea that by voting they can bring about social justice and the redistribution of wealth. But this is just an illusion, because the people they are voting into office have no real power and never will be allowed to have that power by those who really run the world (plus most left-wing politicians are well-heeled millionaires who can easily be manipulated). Thus, politics is a kind of stage where the illusions fostered by the power-elite are acted out. For the real decisions are made out of sight, backstage, by a power-elite which is ruled by the principles of darkness, obfuscation, disinformation, mendacity and deception. I cannot emphasise that word “darkness” enough in this context of the power-elite and what empowers them. It is a darkness which lies way beyond any horror/zombie/vampire movie you could see (and it is no coincidence that there are so many of those around today).
Thus, we can say that, whereas the law enforcement, military and security services are responsible for implementing and enforcing the plans of secret government, the politicians and senates or parliaments provide the entertainment to the masses for it, so that through diversion and distraction people imagine they are participating in some kind of “democratic” choice of government. Alongside of this, the mainstream media is the propaganda division of the secret government. As mentioned earlier, this is that “triumvirate” of departments or divisions acting outwardly in the physical realm on behalf of the secret government power-elite in this world: 1. Enforcement (law enforcement, military & intelligence/security services); 2. Entertainment (politicians, government, parliaments, senates & congresses) and 3. Propaganda (newspapers, journals, TV & news corporations). For the real power in this world does not lie in the elected people in your parliaments and senates. Elections and the subsequent workings of those parliaments and senates are merely one huge charade, acted out in order to anaesthetize the mass of people into a crippling mindset of ignorance, illusion and passivity. Thus, it is fair to say that true democracy is entirely non-existent on this planet.
But this is not merely about the work carried out by the law enforcement, military and security services. For the people and institutions which control the direction of this world as it is presently constituted are the banks and corporate conglomerates which control finance and production. For the evil fiscal system (and its many tentacles) which has been globally installed is how the power-elite controls the world and every single one of us in this present age, through wages/salaries, consumption of products, credit and, most importantly, through debt. Thus, the law enforcement, military and security services do not exist in a vacuum to promote only their own affairs. For their affairs are derivative of the plans and policies of the banks and corporate conglomerates and thus their work is primarily to enforce those plans and policies. This is what government is really all about: Promoting and maintaining the secret agenda of the banks and corporations which are the flagship institutions of the dark power-elite which lies behind them. Anyone of influence who gets in the way or who tries to expose what is really happening will be exterminated as quickly and efficiently as you may swat a fly. For death is the regular business of these organisations in their relentless and heartless accrual of wealth and power in the furtherance of their masterplan.
This is why neither a conservative nor socialist ideology can be of any significance whatsoever to world affairs. They are both used by the power-elite in the service of the charade by which governmental window-dressing is maintained. Communism was begun and used by them in Russia for nearly a century. The power-elite doesn’t care what colour a government is, so long as it is in their service — which it always is. Right wing, left wing, liberal, independent — they are all of no consequence whatsoever to the plans of the power elite. Republican/Conservative, Labour/Liberal/Democrat. It’s all the same to the power-elite. They simply provide the actors for the stage production in the entertainment division of the secret government. The more colourful this is, the better it is to mesmerise the people. Diversity is the name of the game.
9) But Won’t it Be a Wonderful Thing if a Woman is Elected to Office?
Many women today believe that if a woman is in the White House then it is a huge “victory” for women everywhere and paves the way for the “collapse of the patriarchy”. This view represents the very height of naivety and absurdity. Firstly, there have been women presidents and prime ministers before elsewhere in the world and they behaved no differently to any other politician (i.e. corrupt, self-seeking, egocentric, ruthless, competitive, mendacious, etc.). The assumption seems to be that women are infinitely more just, peace-loving, caring, nurturing, open, empathetic and honest than any man. This is patent nonsense. I have known plenty of women who called themselves liberated but who are bitchy, aggressive, entitled, pushy, ruthless, mean, scheming, underhand and can bend the truth at the drop of a hat. The real issue is not about gender but about power.
I once had a conversation with a woman which went like this:
SHE: “But won’t it pave the way for women to change the world if Hillary Clinton is elected to be President?”
ME: “No, I don’t believe it will. Firstly, she doesn’t represent to me the epitome of what it is to be a genuine woman, the sacred feminine. It takes more than the possession of a vagina to make a woman. Secondly, there isn’t a scrap of evidence that a woman would behave any differently to a man if elected to the office of president. Apart from the fact that presidents have no power to change anything, all the female presidents I have known about have been ineffective, corrupt and as manipulative as any male.
SHE: “Well maybe Hillary isn’t a great example of a woman but won’t her election mean that in the future women will at least be able to take power?”
ME: “Why should anyone want to “take power”. The problem isn’t about whether men or women are in power but the fact that government exists in the way that it does — exercising corrupt power and dominance rather than wisdom, God-given authority, and integrity.
A “woman in the White House” will still just be a lackey to the power-elite and have no authority other than what is granted to her by that power-elite. [If you want to read more of what I have written about the liberation of women, please see my article, “The Myth of the Patriarchy: An Analysis of Women’s Liberation”, which you can freely read here: https://diakrisis-project.com/2024/02/25/the-myth-of-the-patriarchy-matriarchy-an-analysis-of-womens-liberation/ ].
10) The Forgotten Element of Public Office
However, there is one primary element which is missing in all this which I need to address: The sacredness of public office. Civic or public service should be based on sacred principles. It is a sacred and holy thing to serve the people and by that to be serving God. Government always tends to become self-serving and hegemonist. Government in this world is an excuse for domination and control by mainly psychopathic people with a narcissistic personality. It is not government which one needs but sacredly appointed administrative bodies dedicated to the welfare of the people in order to deal with public services for those people. The current world-system of governance and administration is profoundly corrupt, designed to oppress and exploit and to protect itself in the furtherance of a very dark agenda propagated by an evil power-elite of satanic proportions — the very opposite of the sacred principles to which I am referring here. I would venture to say that public service is so sacred that it should either be performed on a voluntary basis or else its public servants should be paid a minimum stipend. Thus, only those who recognise the sacredness of public office and who are truly dedicated to that service without any personal ambitions or ego-desires would be interested and eligible.
The right questions are rarely asked about public servants. Are they self-aware? Are they narcissists? Are they spiritually-awake, recognising that God has come in the flesh in the person of the Christ? Are they sociopaths/psychopaths? Are they dedicated to sacred principles? Etc. Only people who have said goodbye to their ego-based selves (denied themselves and followed the Christ), who are utterly and completely dedicated to truth, who are not aligned with any party, ideology or other sectarian outside interest, are eligible for public service in a public office. This could not happen today in the adversarial national governmental system as it currently stands. One cannot put new wine into old wineskins. They are not compatible. It would be naïve to think otherwise. One cannot reform the current system because that system is maintained by a thoroughly evil power-elite which will stop at nothing to prevent that reform. This has been shown over and over again.
11) The Real and Only Revolution
It is a huge step to take to admit that almost everything about the world which one has been brought up to believe, within the family, in school, in college, in university, or in the media, is a lie. But that is how it is. The power-elite depends for its control on the mass of people being exceedingly emotionally and spiritually immature, which indeed they are. That is what they require, in order to accrue their power and maintain the ignorance of the people. Therefore, the most revolutionary act which one can commit is to develop oneself emotionally and spiritually in the power of the Holy Spirit. People often say to me: “But if voting is a waste of time, what can I do instead to change anything?” Here is the answer: Be transformed through the renewing of your mind by submitting to the Christ. But that is only the beginning. For you must then work unceasingly on yourself in an inner sense. Increasingly dissolve your emotional and spiritual immaturity. Become consciously self-aware. See yourself for what you really are… This is the real revolution — the only revolution — the only way of and to change.
Here we come to the heart of the matter: What I have generally found is that it is first important to develop oneself inwardly before one can handle or willingly discover what is really going on in the world outwardly. Therefore, after the necessary metanoia in the soul which is initiated by the Christ through His Spirit in those who submit to being His disciples, the most revolutionary act which one can commit as a result of that is to develop oneself emotionally and spiritually. If an emotionally or spiritually immature person who has no relationship with the Christ starts to open their eyes about the world, they can be totally destabilised, terrified, or become obsessed unhealthily with world events and conspiracies. One needs the inner development to be able to handle it.
In order to hold onto their power, the power-elite counts on people being either utterly afraid of the truth or becoming so wackily obsessed with (mostly controlled-opposition-fuelled) conspiracy theories that people will regard them as nutjobs. That is mostly how they maintain their control — through people’s fears, obsessions and other elements of immaturity. What we’ve been witnessing on social media recently in relation to the US election is simply a manifestation of the mass of people’s extreme emotional and spiritual immaturity. Once one has been spiritually transformed and then stabilises and develops one’s inner growth at a deeply spiritual level, then one will soon see the world for what it is without being thrown in all directions with anger and confusion and getting “terrified” (as I have seen people say many times on social media recently).
Chaos and fear are in the power-elite’s best interests because this is how people can be controlled. This is what they love to generate. The more chaos and fear, the greater their level of control. It is a psychological operation (psyop) on the part of the power-elite to generate chaos and fear. They are accomplished masters of it. They have been experimenting with such mind-control techniques for a very long time and especially using their vast resources in the so-called “intelligence community”. (Only very little research is needed to discover this, by the way. It is not “conspiracy” but proven fact, though most people don’t want to hear it).
When I say that I will never participate in any elections by voting (for to vote for parties which have blood on their hands is to corrupt oneself and partake in their evil), people often say to me: “But if voting is a waste of time, what can I do instead to change anything?” Here is the answer: After you have devoted yourself to becoming a servant of the Christ, work unceasingly on yourself in an inner sense. Increasingly dissolve your emotional and spiritual immaturity. Become consciously self-aware. See yourself for who and what you really are. Humble yourself and remove every last vestige of narcissistic egocentricity. Decades of social engineering and self-conditioning will have to be overcome. This path is not without its rocks and ravines. It will be a painful process. But you will rejoice to be on it, for it is the way of love and truth and it will all be happening in the power of the Spirit of God who will respond to your prayers to that effect. For then you will not be blown about like a lost leaf on the wind filled with fear and hopelessness. You will see everything with new eyes. This is the real and only revolution.
Finally, I have to say that one cannot topple the power-elite through politics or legislation or revolutions, for they control all those things too. It is actually extremely childish to wait around for someone else to change the world like some political sugar daddy. It is also extremely lazy and shows a complete lack of personal responsibility. This is why the most powerful revolutionary act in this world is for a person to commit to emotional and spiritual growth in the power of the Holy Spirit. Insight upon insight will awaken the heart and how one perceives the world, if one is open to it and not governed by fear or human control. This is the essence of freedom. One will then become an invincible warrior for the Light against the darkness arrayed against humanity on the earth today, both internally and externally. Please don’t just take my word for it! Find out for yourself, if you have not already done so. For this is the REAL adventure and the moment when you exit the stage erected by the forces of darkness and act independently of it.
12) EPILOGUE: Only Inner Transformation (Metanoia) Can Lead to Any Kind of Change (but that is going to be mostly only personal and local)
There is no justice anywhere in this world-system, nor democracy; neither are either of those things possible in this world as it is presently constituted. These things cannot be changed at a macrocosmic level on this planet by outward revolution or political reform. A complete transformation is needed at every level. This whole rotten show will play itself out until it disappears up its own backside in a welter of Divine judgement, as it surely will. For we are fast approaching the climax of the old aeon, an order which is the result of a fragmented irrational human consciousness, an ego-driven mentality and a separation from our Creator. These are the conditions of this fallen world’s pathway to its highest realization in the new heaven and new earth to come, when those who have truly followed God and His Christ will take their places among the population of that new perfected creation.
The faces that you see on your TV screens right now and on election platforms and in senates and parliaments are a manifestation of all that fallenness. This projection of fragmented, alienated human consciousness is the real reason behind the overtly adversarial nature of party politics. The hustings, the heckling, the backbiting, the propaganda, the divisiveness, parties locked in confrontation, the media circus, the backroom deals, the sectarian scramble for power — these are all the natural outworking of a corrupted human heart and messed-up consciousness which is dysfunctional, broken and cut off from the Source of all being. Above all, it is a satanic world-system which cannot be mended or overthrown other than supernaturally by Christ at the end of this age.
Thus, what is happening this year in the US elections is of no consequence whatsoever to the direction in which the country or the world will be heading (other than to mask the reality). An election is the ultimate in Bathos — the literary and artistic device which simply denotes ‘much ado about nothing’. All the snobbery, greed for big wages and pensions, class hatred, tactical manoeuvres, propaganda, vitriol, partisanship and euphoria or disappointment (depending on whether your party wins or loses) are merely indicators of that fragmented, alienated consciousness and the ego-driven mentality which comes out of it, lost in the clouds of myth and disinformation.
One needs to pull back and see the big picture in all this political commotion. For as far as the evil institutions and their servants are concerned, one can say that currently “this is their hour and the power of darkness” under Divine permission, and has been for some while now. They are being Divinely permitted temporarily to fulfil their dark deeds. But it will not always be so. For darkness must always come to a head in order for it to be exposed as a sham, revealed for what it is and then toppled. Then, when this world and aeon has been wound up as easily as rolling up a scroll of parchment — having served its purpose in the movement from darkness to light — then a new world, aeon and order can properly begin. If you truly wish to be part of that, then you must first submit to the Christ in penitence and with the acute desire to change and He will welcome you into His open arms. If this is to be you, then my words will resonate deep within you and already will have done while you have been reading.
In the meantime, even if we shun the corrupt and illusory system of voting devised to fool us into imagining that we participate, we do not have to be passive observers of the charade, as that would be as fruitless as being a duped participant. For running alongside the ongoing havoc of darkness, there exists in this world a global network of souls who are engaged in the very necessary gracious education, revelation and understanding, if the inheritors of tomorrow are to become a viable force of the future. This is the true Ekklesia — the real Church as opposed to the false church which the world sees. This Ekklesia has been charged by the Christ to use His authority to bring souls into it.
Epiphany blooms today already in the dark forest! There is nothing more lovely that seeing the light shining in the midst of the darkness. Better still, we can actually BE the light of the Ekklesia shining through the darkness. If we do all that we can to ensure the growth of our self-awareness, insight, learning, intuition, discernment and unique understanding of the circumstances of this era — while educating others about the truth that God came in the flesh to gather His people to Himself to populate the new creation to come — then we will have done our duty as watchmen on the wall. Then — whether we physically survive the holocaust to come on this earth or not — we will be able to take our place in the completely new aeon and order which will emerge from the ashes and debris of the old.
Today they brazenly toy with the mass of people’s minds through gaslighting in psyops-based election campaigns, which are always merely programmes of mind-control. Understanding this process is a vital part of our self-education. People are being gaslighted and primed to accept a Trojan Horse into their lives. That Trojan Horse is the vain belief that our hope and future lies in our salvation by politicians, prime ministers and presidents. It does not, cannot, and never will. For there is a script which has already been written which will determine the outcome of the human experiment. The outcome of that script cannot be rewritten; but the part each of us plays in it can. We can choose to be part of the wilfully ignorant veil of darkness by which this planet is inveigled, or we can dedicate ourselves to the true Light of the Christ, by turning around our lives in penitence and humility and by following Him, which is the only way that darkness will be overcome, beginning with the inward manifestation of that. True change in this world can only ever be personal and local; for in those spheres we can make changes if we persevere.
How can a political party hope to change this world when it has to be subservient to the forces of darkness which lie behind the lace-net curtains of this pseudo-civilisation — a ‘civilisation’ which in the main vehemently denies that the Christ has come in the flesh (which is the “spirit of the Antichrist”, First Letter of John, chapter 4, verse 3) and which celebrates its corrupted ego? We can have some small effects on our locality through our witness and educative impetus, but we cannot hope to ‘undarknify’ this world as a whole. Things have gone way too far for that. But we can be personally transformed through the Christological metamorphosis of our hearts and thereby through osmosis have a knock-on effect on the circumstances immediately around us.
All this was prophesied long ago in Bible texts which, due to even more propaganda and disinformation, most of the human race now dismisses as nonsensical fantasy. But there really IS a spiritual battle and we are right in the thick of it now — moving towards the climax of it, in fact. This has nothing to do with religion, for what people call “Christianity” today in the mainstream world-religion sense is mostly just a joke in the world and part of the corrupt system which Christ came to expose. For He never came to start a religion but to build a body of people, His Ekklesia, and He spoke of how that Ekklesia would be opposed by the forces of darkness in this world.
Do you think that all Christ said was “Do unto others as you would have them do to you”, or “Blessed are the peacemakers”, etc? He also spoke boldly about the way that the world would go in the future, as did His immediate disciples of the time who also spelled out the chaos and degeneracy which would come upon this earth. But most people know nothing of this side of the teaching of the Christ, and the many churches which are false representatives of His will never tell it to you. However, if you are intrigued and want to know more, I will gladly share more, much more! Just contact me by personal message or email and I will respond. [You could also read my article, “Knowledge Which has Deliberately Been Kept from You”, by going here: https://diakrisis-project.com/2021/09/22/knowledge-which-has-deliberately-been-kept-from-you/ ].
Now is the time to proclaim all this as the climax of this pseudo-civilisation looms into view via globalisation and the establishing of an evil autocracy. Do not be mesmerised by the foolish smokescreen of politics as I see so many are on social media, squabbling about who to vote for, having a sardonic dig at the opponent, extolling the virtues of one’s chosen candidate, which must surely be the height of ignorance and stupidity. All that is just a chimera to draw you away from authentic investigation as to why the world is the way it is and where it is inevitably heading and, above all, what part we can play in educating others about that as a mighty form of genuine evangelism.
Once we begin to understand what lies behind all that we see around us (and I’m not merely referring to the human power-elite, but something far deeper and darker than that), then an exciting spiritual adventure will open up in our lives and a new pathway will be forged before us.
We need to be aware of the fact that the coming years are going to be mind-blowing in their development. There will be much turmoil and uncertainty outwardly but also much epiphany and visionary insight for those who are open to it. There will be terror and there will be glory. Two streams running alongside each other — the “spirit of the Antichrist” / “mystery of lawlessness” on the one hand and the Church of the Christ on the other hand — as one aeon gives way to another. What we are going through now is the birth-pains of the aeon to come as it emerges through the womb of the old. May we be open to understanding all that will come to pass and have the necessary courage, love and shining passion for truth and wisdom!

So, to gather all the above material into some summary bullet-points:
- Presidents have no power to change the system. It is most important to grasp this first and foremost. Presidents are mere celebrity figureheads, agreeable Graphical User Interfaces to present before the masses as a form of entertainment and diversion (as many academics in the field of political studies will confirm). Any president who tries to tinker with the system will be assassinated in character or completely “taken out”. This is what happened to J.F. Kennedy when he threatened to dismantle the CIA and, with his brother, resolved to confront organized crime in the USA.
- The people for whom you vote do not actually run your country. Congresses, Parliaments, Senates, Bundestags, etc. are just window-dressing. The world is really run by a power-elite of military, intelligence, banking and corporate entities whose aims must be unswervingly met by visible governments and their public officials.
- True democracy is entirely non-existent on this planet. Because elected officials have no power beyond the permission of the power-elite, there can be no such thing as democracy. There is only “engineered consent”, whereby people are fooled into thinking that they are participating in elections, which are nothing more than a theatrical scam.
- A woman in the white house will not be a “victory for women”. To believe so is the height of naivety and absurdity. The mere possession of a vagina is plainly not an infallible sign of uncorrupted womanhood as there have been women presidents and prime ministers before in the world and they behaved no differently to any other politician (i.e. corrupt, self-seeking, egocentric, ruthless, competitive, mendacious, etc.).
- The real election issue concerns the spiritual transformation of souls. Only complete inward transformation (a theological metanoia through Jesus the Christ) can lead to any kind of change. Even if there was no secret power-elite, a human being who has not awakened spiritually, not confronted his or her own ego and not been delivered from the power of darkness is not really fit for public office of any kind.
- Only if the sacredness of public office is recognised can a public servant be a force for change. In a system where power is gained through lies and duplicity and exercised through corrupt authority, there can never be transparency and societal change. Public office must be regarded as sacred, to be carried out with grace, love & wisdom if real change is to occur. The current presence of a secret power-elite negates that possibility. However, some amelioration is possible at a local level if one perseveres in a prayerful and courageous manner.
- If you vote in this election, then you are part of its war machine and are therefore perpetuating the corruption and mendacity of governmental manipulation. Not only are the candidates at war with each other but there is a battle for the mind on the part of the power-elite. However, if we refuse to participate in the corrupt and illusory system of voting, we do not have to be passive observers of the charade. For running alongside the ongoing havoc of corruption and darkness, there exists in this world a global network of transformed souls — disciples of the true Christ, the Ekklesia — who are engaged in the necessary education for change, preparing the world for the time when the present corrupted order will be destroyed and a new aeon can begin. Therefore, we must do all we can to be part of that or, if we already are part of it, we can be educators and counsellors for those who would become part of it.

Amen! Thank you for sharing all of this information, Alan! I made a decision months ago to not participate in the US pres. election but then was starting to doubt this decision when other Christians were making points that seemed valid, etc. I have been praying on this daily, and after reading everything here, I believe the Holy Spirit has swayed me in the most Christ-like direction. I appreciate the knowledge and wisdom that God gives you and that you make the time to spell it all out to those that are truly seeking the Truth! I will be sharing this ❤ You are a blessed messenger!

Thank you for this powerful and meticulously written article, Alan. Your wisdom and insight always shine through, and I deeply appreciate how you bring such clarity and common sense to complex topics. Having read all your eBooks on this subject, I can truly say your compassionate heart and sensitivity are inspiring. The story about supporting the former police officer, who, despite feeling broken, held onto his honesty and integrity, moved me deeply. It’s a testament to your character—always there for others in their time of need, much like you have been for me during some challenging moments.
I’ve also recently developed a love for classical music and have been exploring Mahler, finding solace and reflection in it, much like I find in your writings. Please feel free to share with me more of your insights—I’m eager to keep learning from you. I’m truly looking forward to the release of The Essential Apocalypse and am so grateful for everything you do. May the grace and sovereignty of our God through our Lord Jesus Christ continue to guide and strengthen us. 💖
