This is how they control all of us…

I saw this reel on Facebook, and realized I could share it directly to a blog post, so here ya go!

This very insightful reading will make you think more than twice about the world we live in!!

The best way to gain control over the most powerful, intelligent species on the planet is to completely divide them from the love within themselves.

• As soon as they are old enough to begin creating an understanding of who they are, force them into a system that teaches them that it is wrong to be yourself if yourself is different from what is accepted as normal.
• Confuse them about their own biological makeup so that they think that permanently altering their body is the answer to happiness.
• Require their daily attendance at an institution that makes them focus only on the information that is provided. Make them attend the institution from age 5 until an adult, and repeatedly test them on the information so that it becomes their truth.
• Give them an explanation to everything, so that they never have a chance to make their own assumptions of the world.
• Scold them and humiliate them if they suggest an opinion that opposes that of their authorities’.
• Keep reminding them of how cruel their ancestors were to each other in the past, and broadcast how cruel they are to each other in the present.
• Only show them tragedies on the news so that they live in fear and think the worst of one another.
• Convince them that their species used to be that of an incognizant wild animal, and make them think their existence is so incredibly random that they lack purpose and struggle to make sense of a creator.
• Tell them that they are as smart and kind as they’ve ever been, so that they don’t question the integrity of the system to which they subjected.
• Provide them with idols of artificial beauty and use them as examples of what it is to look perfect, so that they are never content with their own appearance and can’t help but to compare themselves amongst one another.
• Create addictive digital platforms that rank them by numbers so that their self-worth is derived from the number of followers they have, leaving them never satisfied.
• Construct a society around them in which those who have money benefit and those who don’t fail.
• Make money their main focus, but make it difficult enough to accumulate such that they remain in a state of constant struggle, forced to dedicate the majority of their time to the system that made it this way.
• Tax them in every way possible, but reassure them that it’s for their own benefit, so that they don’t think twice about paying it.
• Take so much of their time and energy during the week, but give them two days to themselves so that they feel a sense of reward and don’t fight back.
• Promote the consumption of poison in every social setting, so that even on those two days they remain disconnected from themselves and each other.
• Pump their food with excess sugars and addictive chemicals, but make it cheap, advertised, and easily accessible so that they never stop consuming.
• When their food makes them ill, prescribe them medication that only masks the symptoms so that they become dependent on it every day.
• Charge them so much money for healthcare to ensure they remain in a constant cycle of consuming, medicating, and working.
• Cause chaos amongst them and blame it on a group of their own so that they form judgemental stereotypes.
• Turn them against each other in so many ways so that even if they were to connect on one, they would still be divided by another.

The Inspiration

After a little digging, I believe what the woman in the video is reading is the original work of a Medium writer known as Taymo, called A Recipe for Fostering Compliance.

👏👏👏 Well done sir! You hit the nail on the head with this one!

Another Video

This reminds me of another video- solid black fills the screen and plain white letters scroll past, as you hear Paul Harvey reading his 1965 work “If I were the devil…”

Overcoming Systems of Control

If you’ve ever felt silenced, minimized, or quietly managed “for your own good,” it wasn’t an accident. Systems of control are designed to make you blame yourself instead of questioning the structure. Awareness is where freedom begins.

They don’t control us by power alone — they do it by isolating us, exhausting us, and teaching us to stay quiet. The moment you name the pattern, the spell breaks. What comes next is choice.

Awareness Is the First Break in the Chain

Control works best when you think the problem is you. I learned that the hard way — being talked over, excluded from decisions, and quietly discredited while being told I deserved it.

Once I named the tactics — silencing, gaslighting, double binds — the confusion lifted.

> If you can name the behavior, you stop internalizing the blame.

Awareness doesn’t solve everything, but it restores clarity. And clarity is power.

Reclaiming Agency (One Inch at a Time)

Agency isn’t dramatic. It’s subtle and stubborn.

For me, it was asking questions I wasn’t supposed to ask. Filing my own paperwork. Saying, “That’s not accurate,” even when my voice shook.

> Agency isn’t the absence of fear. It’s choosing to act anyway.

You don’t take power back all at once. You reclaim it decision by decision.

Think Critically or Be Managed

Systems of control rely on unchallenged narratives. I was told repeatedly that decisions were being made in the “best interest” of others — even when evidence said otherwise.

Critical thinking forced new questions: Who benefits? Who decides? Who’s missing from this conversation?

> Systems hate critical thinkers because they don’t obey stories — they test them.

Discernment isn’t cynicism. It’s self‑respect.

Boundaries: Where Control Stops

I used to over‑explain, thinking clarity would earn fairness. It didn’t — it just drained me.

Boundaries changed that. I stopped debating my reality. I stopped engaging with people committed to misunderstanding me.

> Boundaries aren’t walls. They’re doors — and you control the lock.

Expect pushback. That’s often the sound of a power imbalance correcting itself.

From Helplessness to Self‑Trust

Helplessness isn’t a personal failure — it’s often a conditioned response.

The shift came through small follow‑throughs. Keeping promises to myself. Doing the next right thing even when outcomes were uncertain.

> You don’t wait to feel powerful. You act — and power follows.

Self‑trust is rebuilt through experience, not affirmation.

Community Breaks the Spell

Control isolates. Community reveals patterns.

The moment someone else tells your story back to you — the spell breaks.

> They taught us to whisper so we wouldn’t realize how many of us there are.

Connection doesn’t require agreement. It requires honesty.

From Control to Conscious Choice

Control feeds on silence, confusion, and compliance.

Freedom grows through clarity, courage, and connection.

This isn’t about rebellion for its own sake. It’s about choosing truth over comfort, agency over approval, and community over isolation.

Once you see the system clearly, you can’t unsee it.

That’s not a problem.

That’s the beginning.

We've reached a threshold. No more tolerance for what doesn't serve humanity's highest good. The voices long silenced are rising, demanding to be heard. This is our moment to stand together in integrity and birth the world we know is possible. Every one of us carries that Light. ✨

In his 2007 speech at the National Press Club, Dr. Alfredo Sfeir-Younis challenged the conventional peace-building methods of the early 21st century—marked by the height of the Iraq War and global military expansion—by asserting that traditional protests and diplomacy fail without the foundational pillar of inner peace. Amidst a geopolitical landscape defined by escalating military expenditures and the tragic reality of child soldiers and refugees, Sfeir-Younis argued for a "fundamental platform" of meditation, prayer, and self-awareness as the only sustainable path to world peace. He critiqued the era's pervasive individualism and materialism, calling for a radical shift toward collective responsibility and a "humanization of economics" where wealth is managed for the group welfare. Ultimately, he positioned inner transformation and collective silence not as passive acts, but as the most powerful instruments for dismantling the systemic violence and inequality that characterized the global state of affairs in 2007.

En la sesión en vivo "Un Camino Hacia la Paz" en el canal Aquarius en Línea, junto al anfitrión Luis González, Alfredo Sfeir-Younis, desde el marco de su obra sobre la consciencia y los derechos humanos, expone los principios esenciales para alcanzar la paz colectiva. La clave reside en la transformación individual, la cual puede manifestarse externamente a través del "Efecto Raíz Cuadrada del 1%", una prueba de que la práctica meditativa de una porción mínima de la población puede reducir significativamente la violencia global. El Maestro identifica que la paz es obstaculizada por tres tipos de ignorancia (la inconsciencia, las hipótesis erróneas y el desconocimiento de las leyes estructurales de la vida) y propone un camino práctico que incluye el trabajo interno (auto-consciencia y perdón), la evaluación del trato a la naturaleza, el diálogo, el desarrollo de la autoestima y la práctica del Servicio Desinteresado (Seva) junto con las cuatro actitudes sublimes (Brahma Viharas): la bondad amorosa, la compasión, la alegría apreciativa y la ecuanimidad.
