I'm going to republish a piece from 12-30-22 titled Normalizing the New Normal. The point of the original essay was my theory on how whistleblowers are used to introduce governmental overreaches so as to normalize whatever it is that they want us to accept. Case in point: Where we are with regards to government censorship and the Twitter revelations from a few years ago.

My point about Snowden wasn't meant that he was in on the revelations, but his disclosures were used to normalize governmental spying.

When a new whistleblower comes on the scene it raises my eyebrows, what are they trying to normalize now. Whistleblowers are not what they used to be, in my humble opinion anyway.

This is an opinion piece. I have no proof other than my lying eyes. And my intuitive gut. I'll throw this out there as speculative fodder for the un-indoctrinated and open mind.

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." ---- William Casey, CIA Director, 1981

I've been thinking for a while now that both sides of any given narrative are controlled.

Full Spectrum Dominance - Are we there yet?

Sure does seem like it to me. Please consider this:

Suppose you are a propagandist. Would it not be optimum to control both sides of a narrative? Both sides of an issue, pro and con. That would be total control, full spectrum dominance if you will. Could it be possible that our realities are so controlled that the idea of oppositional perception is but a facade? In today's world who knows what is real, right? With all the gaslighting and lying is it any wonder that folks are confused? Is that not the tenet of Full Spectrum Dominance?

I think that if you look you can see it in many issues nowadays, it may be subtle as is all good propaganda. The yin and yang may be manipulated into a soup of disinformation and obfuscation. Think about how you form your opinions, what you read, what you see, what you think about. If one could control that input then one could formulate your reality.

Examples:

Elon Musk: Something just hasn't sit well with me about this Elon Musk and Twitter deal. It all seems contrived. I certainly don't consider him a hero as some have made him out to be. Could there be more to his Twitter acquisition than just his self proclaimed altruistic motivation. I'll put a theory out there and let you be the judge.

Let's suppose that freedom of speech may not be Musk's ultimate goal in buying Twitter. Let's suppose that normalizing the new normal is actually the goal. What do I mean by that?

Musk is bringing front and center the alphabet agencies hand in censoring Twitter users. He is exposing that which many of us have suspected for a long time, that is, the government is colluding with big tech to catapult their narrative and to shut down oppositional view points. Exposing that is a good thing, right? My immediate reaction was, "Sure is". But, wait a minute.

Since I've been going on about normalizing the new normal, let me try to explain. The behind the scenes collusion of big tech and the state is being exposed with the intent to normalize that unholy marriage. To put it out there for all to see. It's shocking, right? But after a while the shock wears off and people begin to accept it. There's nothing that can be done about it, so we have to live with it, right? There's no hope citizen, accept your medicine and let Big Daddy Government handle this. Accept this fact and prepare yourself for CBDCs and digital slavery. Go back to sleep.

People are and will be outraged. "My Constitution" is crying out across the land. Folks will ululate, throw up their hands, shake their heads, call out for reform. But slowly, over time, the short attention span majority will move on to the next big thing and the tech/state collusion will be normalized and we the people have lost another right. Perhaps the most important right of all. And it's out there for all to see.

The new normal has been normalized.

Is there a precedent for this new normalization process? Yes, I think there is.

Edward Snowden: The revelations he made astounded the world. I've always had an uneasy feeling about his revelations. Things just didn't sit right with me. Now I think I can verbalize that uneasy feeling.

How and why would Snowden's revelations be considered controlled narrative to catapult the new normal? It was about exposing the clandestine operations of the alphabet agencies to normalize the fact that we are being spied on. To get you to accept the fact that nothing can be done about it. To get you to accept it and shut up about it. In short, to normalize spying and the loss of rights. You have to admit, it worked. It's out there now and there hasn't been a thing done to thwart it. In fact, it's gotten worse.

You may surmise, "But Snowden's life was ruined over his revelations". Was it? Do you really think that he couldn't be snatched up if the alphabets really wanted to get him?

Conclusion: Trust nothing. Question everything. Fear and despair are the medium, your mind is the target.
