10 Psyops that may be Manipulating You

by Steve Halbrook

Psyops are key for tyrants maintaining and increasing their power and — because tyranny requires a degree of popular consent — even getting the people to demand the chains of their enslavement.

It is important that we see through the narratives so we don’t become parties to the destruction of ourselves and others. We are constantly bombarded with one psyop after another — which is actually what we should suspect when we realize they (the Globalist oligarchs/bankers) are at war with us (know your enemy, as Sun Tzu says).

Here are 10 psyops to look out for as we are constantly bombarded with one manipulative deception after another:

The False Left/Right binary
Influential representatives for the Left and the Right — politicians, talking heads, etc. — present themselves as being for the rights of the people, and accuse the other side of opposing said rights. But in reality, those in both sides (whether wittingly or unwittingly) support tyranny and serve the same Globalist oligarchs.

In short, they are twins with different names. This is why no matter which side is in power, we get closer to Agenda 2030 (total totalitarian control).

The Left/Right Binary is very useful to the Oligarchs, as it divides and conquers the people into two manageable camps — each complete with their own propaganda narratives that keeps them supporting tyranny and blaming the other camp instead of looking above to the Oligarchs who control both camps.

Essentially, the Left/Right binary has people begging for the tyranny of their own candidates: “No tyrannical kings unless it is our tyrannical king!”

Lucy’s football
Sure — you’ve been betrayed again and again by our Globalist-controlled politicians, but next time — we promise you — it will be different!

Campaign promises get “unexpectedly” broken — or the other side blamed for your candidate’s failures or actions. Whatever the case, there is always an excuse as to why candidates inevitably foster more tyranny while in power.

This tactic plays on our tendency to blindly idolize man — that somehow, a human savior will come along and radically change things, even in cases where he clearly has no moral boundaries. “This one, I’m sure, will make our country great again!”

The False Flag
The False Flag pretends one nation or group of people is behind an attack when it is really someone else — most likely, the victims’ own government.

Frequently, it is used when one nation wants an excuse to attack another nation, and so those in the “victim” nation orchestrate an attack on their own people that makes another nation look guilty.

The idea, of course, is to gain something — another nation’s resources, an excuse for “emergency (tyrannical) powers,” etc.

In recent history, the “War on Terror” relies on false flags as an excuse for totalitarian powers. However, the false flag is not limited to military attacks and may be fabricated — the “war on disease,” for example, makes up viruses as an excuse to mass murder the population via vaccines (a most obvious example is COVID).

False flags are extremely easy to pull off, since most trust the media and those in authority. (To get an idea of how common they are, look at just the historically admitted false flag instances.)

If much of the population can’t trust the “mainstream” establishment for a false flag, then the oligarchs simply use a pretended “anti-establishment” candidate to deceive the people. This is why Trump was so important in the COVID scam — he got the freedom movement to buy into COVID, whereas if an overtly establishment politician like Hillary Clinton was in power, there would have been more skepticism.

The Sky is Falling
The Sky is Falling psyop takes advantage of our fearful dispositions (especially of death) to manipulate us into supporting tyranny and genocide.

“Urgent! Urgent! Give us emergency tyrannical powers, or all is lost! The sky is falling, and we’re all going to die!”

If a government wants you to back the massacre of those in another country — and/or wants to genocide its own people in the war — then the sky is falling: “This regime poses an imminent threat! We must destroy them before they destroy us! Enlist now! And then we will bring peace and prosperity to the galaxy!”

What if the oligarchs want mass surveillance? War will also do (especially the nebulous “War on Terror”) — but so will the orchestrated immigration crisis. What about mass depopulation of one’s own people? War, again will do, but so will mass vaccination, which has people eagerly running to their deaths to escape viruses.

As long as we outsource our thinking and/or morality to the establishment, we won’t stop to reconsider fear-based narratives. We’ll just blindly go along — mentally paralyzed by the fear they feed us.

Appeal to Popularity
Most want to fit in. And the oligrachs know this. Hence, the Appeal to Popularity psyop — where the oligarchs employ social pressure to manipulate your decisions.

The appeal may be to “experts” (“most experts say”) or the general population (“most people say”). Of course, the Appeal to Popularity might be fabricated — it could be that the majority actually hold to the opposite view.

In any case, the Appeal to Popularity is a logical fallacy. Truth is not determined by counting noses. Nevertheless, for many it is very psychologically compelling. The Asche Experiment shows the absurd lengths many will go to conform to obviously wrong information.

Consider how this pysop might be employed in different ways. It may be via blanket, unproven statements (“most believe”) or surveys (which could be fudged) — or it could be via boosting social media posts that support a narrative, and suppressing a large number of social media posts questioning the narrative (giving the impression that the suppressed view is unpopular). Or it could just be via derogatory comments (“they are on the fringe”).

How many false views of reality (such as regarding vaccination) does our society hold to because of Appeal to Popularity? Perception manipulation, however, loses its power when our priority is truth instead of popularity.

Controlled Opposition
Those who are Controlled Opposition ostensibly lead a particular movement, but really serve those who oppose it. It is a clever scheme to derail opposition.

The oligarchs realize that there will inevitably be opposition to them anyway, and so with this being the case, they figure it is best to lead the opposition (via infiltration or creating it) so that it can be derailed by misdirection. Better to sanction opposition (even if it makes temporary inroads) that is regularly sabotaged by roadblocks than to deal with opposition with 100% legit, determined leadership.

Motives may vary in those who are controlled opposition. Someone who is controlled could be a politician, a thought leader, an entertainer, an entrepreneur, a “former” intelligence agent, a blogger — really, anyone of influence. While the mainstream media being very obviously controlled by the elites, the alternative media is also heavily influenced by controlled opposition.

Controlled opposition can be better discerned when we don’t emotionally attach to, or idolize, particular personalities, and instead, objectively consider their fruits.

Problem/reaction/solution
The oligarchs create a problem. We react — crying out for a solution. They are happy to accommodate.

“Just give us the ring of power, and we’ll end the problem!”

The manufactured problem could be a false flag attack, an economic crisis, a “contagious” disease, etc. Anything to suite the agenda.

The problem is that most don’t think to — or don’t want to — look behind the curtain to see who created the problem to begin with. Inevitably, it is always our government working in concert with other Globalist puppet institutions such as the media, medical industry, etc.

No matter how real the problem is, the goal of the solution is not necessarily to fix the problem, but to have an excuse for tyrannical powers. Largely, this psyop is like the Sky is Falling psyop, just framed a little differently. Again, our judgement should not be clouded by fear or anything else — which gives the reaction that the oligarchs want — but should be informed by impartiality.

The 2-1 Dance
“Two steps forward, one step back.”

The 2-1 Dance assaults your freedoms — then backtracks amidst public outcries. But the backtracking of tyranny doesn’t go back far enough — while some freedoms are returned to appease the public, some tyranny also remains in place. At the very least, precedents are set and the public is desensitized for future tyrannies.

In short, the 2-1 Dance makes the public happy by restoring some freedoms, but keeps the totalitarian tip toe moving forward. It often starts in the guise of “emergency powers.”

Since 9-11, the expanded surveillance state remains in place. (They had us begging for it — “Because of terrorism, we must be willing to surrender some freedoms!”) And surely the severe impact on social life after the COVID scam seems to a degree to remain to this day. Both of these set the stage for technocratic control.

Understanding that government has a limited jurisdiction (pretty much to punish certain evildoers, e.g., Romans 13) is the antidote to the 2-1 Dance. Once limited jurisdiction is jettisoned, then the limits to government powers become vague and ultimately the state has a blank check to do whatever it wants — achievable by the 2-1 Dance, or put differently, by boiling the frog slowly.

The Dragnet
The Dragnet draws out and entraps opponents of the oligarchs. It could be employed in everything from public criticism to a public protest.

For instance, in Communist China, there was the “Hundred Flowers Campaign,” allowing people to freely speak against the regime. However, it would become a trap — dissidents were eventually targeted for speaking out; for the Communist leader Mao Zedong, the campaign had successfully “enticed the snakes out of their caves.”

Fast forward to more recently history with Donald Trump’s “Stop the Steal” campaign. Here, too, dissidents were invited to protest the election results, only for many to find themselves entrapped and arrested.

Then there are the agent provocateurs, who are always ready to turn a peaceful protest or movement into a dangerous, chaotic situation that paints all involved as evil criminals who must be suppressed.

And so even if you are invited to protest or speak freely, it may not be out of the kindness of the hearts of the oligarchs — but it could be a dragnet meant to draw you in and target you. This doesn’t mean that we should never speak out against evil since we might be targeted — it just means that we must be wise as serpents as to when and where.

Good Cop/Bad Cop
The oligarchs use Good Cop/Bad Cop psychology with politicians (especially Republicans and Democrats) to manipulate support for their agenda.

It often goes like this: one political party supports a position that someone opposes. That party is seen as the “Bad Cop.” The person then supports the other party which either claims to agree with that person’s position, or at least doesn’t seem to support the position to the level that the other party does: the “Good Cop.”

It’s a powerful kind of reverse psychology: simply support one political group in response to what another political group says.

While those in both parties either wittingly or unwittingly serve the same Globalist oligarchs, their supporters are none the wiser. They are so distraught and fearful of the more extreme party that they feel they must support the other party — or all is lost.

Even if it means doing evil that good may come — and even though both parties (like real good cop/bad cop entrapment) are designed to work together by playing off of the Good Cop/Bad Copy psychology to bring the same tyranny.

Some, if not most people, are so tribalistic that they aren’t manipulated into Good Cop/Bad Cop based on what is right or wrong, but what is Right or Left. Democrat: “The Republicans support something? It’s wrong, so I’ll automatically oppose it!” Republican: “The Democrats support something? It’s wrong, so I’ll automatically oppose it!” And when their own party then supports what the other party did, then suddenly it’s okay — they are the Good Cop.

This makes people amazingly easy to manipulate — all one party has to do is behave kindly (like a Mr. Rogers) or supportive amidst the positions of the rival party (or bad cops), and they can, like a pied piper, get their followers to follow them into hell.
