Hi folks I’m Alan Watt and this is Cutting
Through The Matrix on February 9, 2020. I hope you’re all doing okay and getting
through these incredible times that we’re living through. Because I’ve said, so
many generations, as far as I can remember, parents, grandparents and so on,
going back, have never had any peace for any length of time in this system in
which we live.
You’re always worried about finances or financial
crashes. As I’ve said before, they generally rob you, traditionally, the big,
big, big banks, or those who control them…
Because you’ve got… It’s even wrong to call them banks. The top
lenders at the top are really different, they lend to nations.
They traditionally have always plundered us at least twice, at least
twice a century. That’s generally traditional. But it’s sometimes three times
in a century.
Now they have more sophisticated ways of getting
money off the general public, through taxes and various things. And then the
cons of inflation and deflation, and what they like to call quantitative
easing, where they simply ease the cash out of your wallet, you know, by big
quantities. But they do it incrementally,
so you’re not supposed to notice it so much.
So we’re controlled all the time through fear.
I’ve always said, this is an abusive system.
And it truly is an abusive system. The technique is simple, keep the
people terrified. It's like cattle in
the field, if they're happily grazing you see, they'll ignore any guy that
comes along and tells them to move to the next field. You have
to get fear into them to get them all moving. And stampede them. If you want big
changes to happen you stampede them quickly, get the whole herd moving, and
during that period don't let them rest at all. Keep them frantically racing ahead with the
eyes wide and the whole thing, their tongues hanging out, terrified and you can
really get a lot done to control them by changing the entire system. And
they'll obey you see, because they're terrified.
Well, that's how they talk about the people, how
to keep them, how to manage the public.
It's awful for them to have a long period of not too much happening, you
see. So you get financial crashes.
You're always living in fear. You can't win in this system if you’re ordinary
people. You really can't, it's not meant that you win anything
actually. Maybe a scratch-n-win,
but you lose it again the next time you buy the tickets. It's all set up and a
big con.
Because, you know, if you won, you'd all be
happy. Happiness is the last thing they want the public to have. You're
supposed to always listen to experts, you see. And the experts always terrify
you of all the awful things that could happen in your life. And most folk now
can't even think without experts. Like Bertrand Russell says, we're training the public to be basically
inadequate without the advice of experts, on the basic things, basic
things. And he meant like changing diapers on babies. Now you need lessons on how to do it,
'eh? People can't think for themselves.
When they started The Weather Channel, they even
got a book out on it ages ago from some of the guys who worked on it. They were set up there to terrify the
public. So a little bit of drizzle could
be possible flooding coming your way. Everything became a crisis. Utter
nonsense, you know. But that's how you
do it, you terrify the public.
Through the data, it's information but it's data.
Information doesn't mean true or untrue, it's just data, you see. And very
often it is untrue. This whole thing about fake news is as old as the hills.
We've been getting it our whole lives. And your parents before you, you know,
were getting it their whole lives too.
Fake news.
Everything's fake, really, 'eh. People actually vote
for who's been selected by the top to be the front person that you're
going to believe in. And they all belong to the same Council on Foreign Relations
group. They're all selected regardless
of the party they're in, at the top they're all by them. Carol Quigley talked
about that and should certainly have known about it since he was the official
recorder of their histories. They have their own history archives for the Council
on Foreign Relation and professor Carol Quigley himself was given access to
them in the 1960s. Actually he worked with Zimmerman,
another guy who at one time was head of the British Communist Party. He wrote
their newspapers for them, he owned them.
And we don't care, Quigley said, we don't care if they're communist or fascist
dictators or whatever, it doesn't matter, as long as they're all working
together. That's what he said. We
don't mind, he says, what they are. And sure enough, if you read their
books, their very old books, when they had the world meetings and they
published some of them for their members mainly. You find they had communists
in there, they had all the labor leaders in their too
for different unions, and they had Prime Minister's, presidents, bankers for
the world, all attending these world meetings as they planned out the future.
It's in their books. It's not conspiracy stuff.
This is… I keep telling people, you're living through an agenda. It's
not hard to believe as far as I'm concerned when you read it every so often.
Like the World Economic Forum literally talk about the whole century, what they
want to implement. It's Agenda 21, the agenda for the whole 21st century, all
the changes that must be made, and the super cities and everyone getting
crowded into them, getting out of the rural areas. And eventually the abolition of private cars,
essential vehicles only. Right
down to what you work at, what you eat, etc. It's almost…
You see, it's a system, a system is awfully
important to understand, what a system is.
From birth to death, 'eh, you're numbered, you're a unit, and your
function is to produce and only consume what they want you to consume. But
produce, that's the definition at the United Nations of a good global citizen, a producer – consumer. If you're sick or you retire, you're no
longer a producer, you're a burden on their system. And I'm not making this up
at all.
Remember as well as I've said before, look back
to the big, big foundations that higher, and people live and work there their
whole lives long for these foundations in different capacities of employment
and they retire. And when they retire, the foundation doesn't close down. No, they've already trained people who continue.
They go on for centuries. And sure, they all have their functions, and
they have their tenants and they can tell you what
their goals are. They tell you what they want to accomplish. And they've all
the time in the world to do it.
And all the money of course. They hire and train and employ hundreds,
maybe even thousands of nongovernmental organizations to get the job done
across the whole planet. The richest
folk on the planet, you don't vote for them. I know Bloomberg's getting into
politics but even he is not the richest on the planet. But the ones who are the
richest on the planet decide what the future is to be. They have their
different proxies beneath them, their little worker bees that get more of the
jobs done. The ones at the top do very little work at all, they just make suggestions. The rest of them who owe to them basically,
everything at they have, jump into action, get the job done. That's how it is.
They even have councils of elders. I've mentioned
it before. It's a global system and these are the elders of the top global
system, Royal Institute of International Affairs and CFR, the inner groups of
course, inner party and outer party, and the ones who do the most work, and can
live long enough, get to be the elders. They're passed over through the United
Nations to the World Health Organization heads and so on.
They have this global socialistic system which
they work for, which they really believe in. They're really... They're
dedicated to it in a strange fanatical sort of way. I was talking to someone
today in fact about that, because it really is difficult to get into the
mindset of people who are fixed for life from a very early age into this
strange duty that they feel that they have. And it fills their pockets too,
mind you, by serving their masters who are above them, the ones who are the
dominant minority who have all the cash and the systems of creating cash in the
world. But they serve them slavishly.
And fanatically. And truly believe they have the right to rule the
world.
It can only work when they train everybody else,
as I say, to be naïve. You're brought up to be naïve. You're
brought up to believe that you've got a system, and you're just stumbling down
through time, and your vote counts, and what you do, your votes really matter and
so on and so on. That's the big joke of it all really because when you have the
huge mass of organizations of foundations that fund the countless armies of
NGOs and countless think tanks that work, actually government
is almost a subsidiary of the think tanks today. In government they constantly
go to the different think tanks for expert advice as they call it for whatever
topic it happens to be. And of course, the think tanks are only too happy to
oblige them.
The CFR in America boasts about the fact that
they are advisors to governments. Well, you don't vote for these think tanks,
do you? Most folk don't even know they exist. Or if they know they exist they
don't delve in find out what they exist for, or what their history is or
anything else. And like the World Economic Forum, where they boast about
running the world for the next hundred years, and this and this and this and
this and this is going to get implemented, etc., and you're all going to have,
be, again, more surveilled by high-tech and all the rest of it. Did you vote
for that? No. You don't get to vote for the WEF. They don't ask your advice on anything, it's
just done. So, what are you talking about you're living in some kind of
democracy? Hm? What are you talking about?
And you get all hyped up when it comes to voting
time, you know. Because the same agenda
is going to continue regardless. And it is. People who thought in the past they
could buck the system by getting it off the course it was on, and who were
in-the-know to an extent of some of what was going on higher above them, I'm
talking about presidents and prime ministers.
When they started to believe that they really were in
charge of Nations, or a nation, they were reminded like Kennedy was, and
the world was reminded, and every other politician was reminded, hey, hey, you
know, you're not running the show here. Ronald
Reagan did the same thing. He started to make decisions and started to… He got
off his script basically. And he was shot, not killed, but shot to remind him…
that you're not the boss. That's how it really works.
The same with Julian Assange. What happened to Julian Assange getting
locked up and when he was basically a prisoner in an embassy for years, yeeears. But every newspaper company in the world pretty well was advised to attend when they went in to
arrest him. So that the world would see that this guy getting pulled out, with
these big strong burly guys, you see, and bundled off in a van, as a warning to
everybody else who might start, think they had the right of free speech and to
tell the public things that they thought the public should know. From then on the
journalists are just, the lips, their mouths are zipped, you know. They'll
give you the little safe topics to talk about, etc. but that's about it. Everything today is so in-your-face and
managed it's just that the people need an explanation of what they're actually seeing. And it really is that way, isn't it?
Yeah, Julian Assange, regardless of what damage
he did or didn't do, the fact is, that was a message to the world, to every
journalist, just do what you're told. After the Levinson Inquiry
in Britain, and its counterpart in Australia, did the same thing there, the
British Commonwealth all went into action at the same time to basically restrict
news and data to the public. As we are going into the next phase of
basically lockdown on free speech.
Which really started way back in 9/11. We're suddenly in this strange war mode
against, they told us immediately who the enemy was to be. It was no surprise
to me. We've been at war ever since basically.
For what? Big corporations have
been raking in the cash. The countries are getting poorer and poorer paying for
it all. Because we pay for it all. Incredible wars. And the devastation of the
wars, and the fallout in the countries that you know you have
to support, that you flattened and destroyed. And also, the mass
migration from them. I wouldn't stay in
those countries knowing it was going to happen, would you?
It's planned that way. It's a chessboard. One
move from this chess piece will cause this, this, this and this. This is all
thought out way waay ahead of the first shot being fired in any war. It takes
years to prepare this stuff. Every movement and strategy is
debated by many think tanks on many levels, and they go over it and over it and
over it, like drafts and redrafts and all the rest of it, could this happen,
what will it cause? So, whatever happens is planned that way. I
hope you understand that.
As Quigley said, you can get more done in five years of war for planned social
change, then you can in 50 years of peace using propaganda. In other
words, when the public are terrified and scared, you can ram through laws after
laws after laws. You can take free speech away. You could even chip everybody
but if they want to. That's where they're wanting to go actually
with it all.
But remember, you're in a strange system of
evolution. And I'm not terrifying people. You should never be terrified by news
of the truth. You can't deal with anything unless you
understand it. Denial doesn't stop it. I hope you understand that. Most folk can't handle the truth. It's true,
and I don't blame them. Most folk, again, accept the indoctrination they've
been given. They themselves in their own
lives in their own little circle will find decent people, and they'll be
decent people and they've got the little problems and all that but
they're decent people. They can't imagine there's people at the top that
are not so decent and who treat, and who see you as an inferior species, all
the eugenicists, etc. at the top, and who helped plan the future and they say,
well, do we really, really need these people down the road? Yeah, we're going to use you for a while yet
as human beings. Maybe not all of you, we don't need all of you anymore. But as
an efficient machine, a human body, is pretty, it's pretty
durable, you might get 60-70 years out of that body, maybe less if you
push it too hard in the fields or whatever you're going to use them for in hard
labor.
But the fact is, it's a pretty
cheap body to maintain compared to robots. Eventually down the road if
they can get cheaper energy for robots and so on, yeah, they'll add more cyborg
technologies to it. Then maybe eventually pure robots, if they can get
dependable long-lasting robots. But in
the meantime, they've got humans. The only problem with humans is you've got
this thing called a brain. So, you must cater to the fact this brain's going to
ask questions. And you've got to make sure that you always, you know, get them
off, off, off the road to seeking real truth. Because they might become objectionable to
things if they understand the truth. And keep them going in circles. Keep them
happy. In their little, little circles,
keep them happy.
Give them lots of entertainment because we have
an insatiable desire for entertainment, don't we? We've
been so studied they know exactly what to do. Today with entertainment, and for my whole
life entertainment is going down the hill as far as indoctrination goes, or I
should say up the hill perhaps with it. Really down the hill. It's easier to
indoctrinate the public today with so much for them to see. There's not a
minute of the day that they couldn't pass delving into entertainment, if they
want to. And everything that you see now
is so politically correct as indoctrination. Because that's how you
get updated, is through fiction, you see.
It's quite simple.
But even at that though, there's a lot, a lot of
resources and money and so on is diverted to keeping the people technically,
it's like animals. You see, it's animal husbandry, you manage them. You manage the
public like a herd. Just like medicine, they call it herd immunity and they
give you inoculations and vaccinations and so on. But they use the same term
for managing us all. Not themselves of
course, but you. [Alan chuckles.] All of
you. And we accept that too.
So as long as you have, like
the Freudian aspect of it as they call it, you know, where he put everything
down to sex. Well, sex is a weapon, this is a primitive technique, a
primitive part of the brain is used for survival techniques, you see. And
if you don't procreate, there's no next generation. So, you hypersexualize everybody. You break the bond of marriage. Or even
long-term mating. In fact, they stated in their many articles from communism
and socialism, and their books for manuals for training, the
idea was to stop the bonding process happening between man and woman and just
having them come together for sex. You see, break the bond.
Because the family unit is a small tribe. A small
tribe might stand up together against government. When you're on your own individually, you're in fear of government,
because they can speak right down to you or come to your door and there's no
one there to stand up for you. HG Wells said this himself in his own
writings, with the Fabian Society. Which of course was funded by the Astor
family, one of the richest families of the era.
So, it's quite easy to keep the people happy they
say. Lots of sex, you see. Keep them in perpetual childhood until people won't
realize that they're getting old until they hit about 60. And even then,
they're still lapping up the stuff that's churned out for teenagers. Because
there's lots of it, you see. So, it's perpetual childhood. You're immature. You
never grow up. And you don't think of deeper things. Which, it's fantastic for
those who rule you. It was trouble, less trouble. And there's really less communication between people outside this
electronic box that we're all in. There's really less
communication because people are technically… that's not communication. Texting is not communication, folks. Meeting
people, looking in their eyes and speaking to them is communication. We don't
do that so much anymore.
These are all wanted changes by those at the top,
desired changes, when we stop communicating in reality with
people. All the studies have shown is teenagers
today can't even look at each other in the face, or anybody else in the face.
They look away. They're so used to looking at their cell phones and so on or
tablets or whatever. And they’re, they'll text away all day long, but they have
no communication abilities in real life. It's really sad
that. All planned that way.
I always think of Orwell's 1984 with a
scene in the canteen, the cafeteria, or the canteen where he worked. A few of them at the table are sitting and
one of them was working in the Department of Communication on the dictionary,
you see. And he says, do you realize the
dictionary used to be this thick, and he puts his fingers up to about 3
inches. And he says, then we got it down
year by year until it was this thick last year. It was pretty thin. And he says, this
year it's going to be even half as thick again. And one of them chips in and says, I see brother, he said.
When we don't have the
words to communicate with, to describe basically anything that's right wrong or
anything else, then you're no threat, you couldn't be a counterrevolutionary
basically. I'm kind of paraphrasing but that's what he was getting at. You won't have the vocabulary to express
anything, what you really mean. And we're getting there even with all the
different changes of vocabularies being forced upon the public. This is... This is no kidding,
this is an old plan and Orwell understood this. Because he belonged to the
International Socialist party at one time, and he went off and fought for it. Actually, did physical fighting for it in Spain. Until he caught on that that there's
something much bigger and above all this managing it all and where it was
supposed to go.
He also came back, and he was kind of shunned in
the social circuit, even though he was a great writer and all that at the time,
he was well known amongst the class of socialists and so on, because he
wouldn't speak out and stand up for the Communists. He said they're not the
same at all. And he realized that the whole idea of socialism was heading off
into the wrong direction and there was a much bigger game plan above it all managing it. So that's what he realized.
He said that one of the, and I put up the link
years ago on my website cuttingthroughthematrix.com where he talked
about a meeting of the authors, the socialist authors association, or some kind
of association he was in. He had arguments with them because they wanted to,
again, bring nothing but sex in and destroy any beauty in the world through the
disgusting techniques, and basically that you're seeing all today. Like S&M and all that, and cussing and
swearing, he didn't see the reason for it or the need for it at all. So, the
books they put out about Orwell, some of these socialists said that he was
inhibited as they called it, inhibited.
A term that was used by Freud again, used this term, oh inhibited,
etc.
Now, you can't have decent manners anymore. If
you have decent manners you're inhibited. I can remember years ago, and I do it
once in a blue moon myself, where you'll swear, you know. But it all came from
television years ago, when I used to watch TV, or movies. Now of course, some movies today, it's every
second word. It's unbelievable. And you wonder why the children pick it up.
Well it's the same way that you picked it up, you know. Because honestly, it's
all planned that way. You don't need that.
Not too long ago I watched, someone sent me, it's
a cheap kind of sci-fi horror type thing. And I'm not kidding you, male-female,
teenagers, or early 20s maybe, it didn't, every second word was just a swear
word. I mean what's the point. If you took that out of the very limited
vocabulary, there's nothing left. It was
that bad. But that's what they fill our heads full of.
Back in the 90s on a show I remember mentioning
the same thing. I says, you know, you pass little
children in the streets in Toronto and you hear them cussing and swearing and
copying the things that they heard from television. Until they grow up and it's
quite normal now for folk to cuss. I catch myself when I can. I only use it now
when you hurt yourself [Alan chuckles.] in some way or another and that's about
it. But it's so profuse today, that it's destructive. You understand it's
destructive. We all sense, when we hear
other people using it, we know it's wrong. We know it's bad for us. And if you
hear women saying it too, it's somehow it seems even worse, I don't know why
but it seems worse.
But anyway, that's the system in which we live. It's
a very fake system. It's artificially created. Again, I mentioned recently
to someone about the fake news again to do with how we're given so much fake
news. That Carol Quigley talked about fake news for World War II. That's why it's called propaganda, that's
fake news. Millions of dollars were spent giving the public's
in the West fake news and propaganda. He mentioned that the Royal Institute of
International Affairs which is the senior group for the CFR basically, they had
all the news moguls together, they had their meetings, they were all part of
the club, you see, and they decided to terrify the public.
Because the public weren't taking it seriously
enough. They had no interest in going to war with Germany again, you see. But
those that ruled them had a different idea.
So, they decided to threaten, they put in all their papers at the same
time a big blitz about gas masks, you're all going to get gassed from the
air. It's so beautiful too because
the taxpayers had to terrify themselves by you the taxpayer paying for the gas
masks. You the taxpayer paid for it
all. Of course, their private companies
all belong to the same group, are the manufacturers. It's quite astonishing,
you know. Anyway, everybody had to all, before the war started and then during
it, carry this gas mask in this little haversack around with them. Or you got a fine if you didn't. And
children had them too. This is all
before the war started.
Called the phony war initially because nothing
was happening. In Britain anyway. Then
they had them all tearing out trenches, trenches in London to again get it
through their thick heads as they say, that there's going to be a war coming,
war coming, you gotta be on board with this war, you've got to hate the enemy,
hate the enemy. Because you can't, it's hard to kill folk that you don't hate, you
know? So, you drum up hate and you debase them into inferior beings, nasty
beings. Dehumanize them. But you get everybody working out frantically, you put
in all the papers photographs of these gangs of guys digging up trenches in the
middle of the city. What good would they be if you're going to get bombed from
overhead? They're of no use at all. It
was an exercise in terror.
Quigley went through that, he admitted that.
Nothing's really changed. Nothing has really changed. We're always given, as I
say, we're kept in fear of financial crashes. We're kept in fear as your dollar
or pound or whatever currency you're on, you need more and more numbers to buy
the same things, and basics. But I read the articles years ago to do with
austerity, part of the Agenda 21 plan for the world,
and the United Nations plan.
It's to bring the Western world into austerity.
Meaning a form of poverty. Gradually, gradually, gradually. Until all your money is going to go energy
costs. The Technocracy Inc. deal, you see. You have some of the descendants of
the Technocracy Inc. group running the world today. In energy, 'eh? Because everything's an energy unit, and
everything you earn is basically energy units. Which are spent on buying energy
units, which is electricity, gas, or food or anything else. Everything is
energy. Old plan, we're living
through it.
But yeah, austerity is what they're going to
bring us into eventually. It's quite
fascinating, at this very time, isn't it, to understand all this. I gave the
talks back in the 90s on the whole plan of bringing China in full-time as the
most favored nation trading status partner for the West. That was what they
called it. And signed it. All your
leaders of politics signed for your factories to move to China under this
wonderful free trade deal, knowing there'd be no employment for all the folk
that worked in factories, when there's no factories there. It was an incredibly
horrific time for people. Especially those that were getting older and looking
forward to the retirement, and factory after factory closed
down.
We paid, our tax money paid to uproot them and
transfer them to China. And we paid for up to 15 years they said if those
corporations said that they hadn't got full production up and full profit
levels up, we paid the difference. Isn't that a beautiful deal, with our
wonderful, wonderful democracies as they call it? Hm?
And the States is a Democratic Republic they call that. [Alan chuckles.] I can remember when James Goldsmith came over
and talked to the Senate, what a great speech he gave telling them about free
trade and the NAFTA deal, which is all part of it. The NAFTA deal, which is now
the USMCA deal. It's the same thing only
it's the next stage towards it, for integration of the Americas. The same deal
that the European Union had, you see. That's what it is.
Aaargh.
I'm so sick going over the same stuff. To me it's just old, old hat, I
can run right through it. I knew what was happening at the time. But I
knew... Do you really think that all
these think tanks that ran it all, and the CFR that drafted up the treaties for
all these deals and handed it to governments to rubberstamp into your law, and
you don't vote for the CFR, folks. But these are super think tanks – they’re
called think tanks, 'eh, it's a joke – that draft up, they even drafted up the
EU union, they admitted that, and the NAFTA treaty, and handed it to government
to sign into law. And they draft up the
deals for China for free trade as well because they run the Asian-Pacific group
as well, of the CFR department as well.
Long-term planning by a private group going way
back at least to Lord Alfred Milner, Cecil Rhodes, etc., and all the ones who
came after it, you know. It's fantastic
to see it all happening. Yet most of the public didn't even seem to notice that
all the items that you use to buy, even the guys for tools and that, suddenly
everything's made in China, and they didn't think to question it.
But what a transition time that was, 'eh? For lots, how many people were laid off and
lost everything? And couldn’t get work
again? People… How could guys, and it's men and women
too, how could they get work in their 40s and 50s when that's all they knew was
working in factories? And there were lots of factories.
But getting back to what I'm saying here,, you really really think
that these big think tanks didn't take it far enough that say, wait a minute
here, supposing things change and the model state for the world... Which is China, that's what we're all
supposed to copy according to the United Nations, and I'm not kidding you, I
got all the old articles here and documentaries that they churned out like you
wouldn't believe on keeping repeating that, China was the model state for
the world. [Alan chuckles.] This communist country, when it's obedience
to the leaders and that's it.
That was to be what we are supposed to emulate.
Well, supposing you fell out with them. Or supposing there was a change in
plan. Or supposing the con men at the very top who planned it all says well
maybe, maybe we'll give them 25 years in China, 30 years and then we'll become
their enemies again. Well, since they are about the only producers left, who's
going to make up the shortfall if you ever fell out with them? Who is going to
make the shortfall if they have this tremendous disease rampaging through their
nation?
You think they didn't think of these things? Of
course, they think of these things, folks.
So, what's happening today has many purposes, many agendas to get
fulfilled. Including if they keep it going for as long as they hope they can
keep it going, in the West that is, a whole new change and way of living, maybe
even down to rationing, so they can get their agenda on to the next level. The
first level, the first big change was 9/11 and Homeland Security and the war on
terror. Which I call the war of terror
really on the public. When literally you can't, you can't speak or even text
anything or whatever without them wanting, demanding to what know what you're
saying or doing.
And everybody happily complies. Because if they
bring down the economy, which again, economic warfare is a form of warfare. A
very effective form of warfare. As I
say, you have to understand, it's how you view things
that really make the difference. China has already declared to their own
citizens, it's a wartime scenario. And
they warned them to obey, or they'll be nailed to the tree or wall or whatever
it is, they'll be nailed to the tree as basically letting down the nation if
they don't obey and pull their weight and so on. You can get more done, again,
in five years of war then you can do in 50 years of propaganda.
In 50 years of propaganda, that's a lot of
attempted persuasion and incremental indoctrination. As you work through the schools, waiting for
that indoctrinated group to grow up and then start doing what they're told and
changing what you want them to change. Stalin did the same thing. They had 50-year plans, 100-year plans. We're doing the same thing today; the United
Nations has them too. So, you gotta stop having this short-term projection into
the future. The big boys themselves are waaay ahead,
sometimes centuries, not just one century.
So here we are going through a crisis with
disease and so on. Now, if you truly followed the laws of plague, or you know,
viral disease, pandemics, epidemics and so on, the first law is complete
quarantine. Hhhch. Farmers do it. I mean, you've all seen
probably All Creatures Great and Small, the old TV series in Britain, or
something similar to that where they had, they called
it hoof and mouth, in Britain I think they called it foot and mouth disease for
cattle and cloven-hoofed animals. They would burn, they would literally be like aaaaaa,
they would be out with law and enforce, and no one could even walk in a field
into another field that was uncontaminated, it was imprisonment if you did
that. Total quarantine for humans. Animals
were immediately, whole mountains of cattle and all kinds of animals were
heaped up and burned. There was no exception. A suspicion alone was enough,
before even the tests were in and that was it.
And farmers lost everything, that's the saying, you lost the farm. They lost everything.
But the first thing is quarantine. Signs go up around the infected area, no one
can go in or out without going through literally troughs of disinfectant, with
their boots and everything. Well, with humans it's the same thing. But one thing you wouldn't do with the hoof
and mouth or foot-and-mouth disease is bring an
infected cow, and knowing infected cow or possibly even infected, into a field
of healthy cows. That's breaking quarantine. That's insane.
So, you can't have a bit of quarantine,
you understand. It's all or nothing. That's how you do it. That's the same with
any major quarantine for humans. So, when you’re bringing in lots and lots of
people from areas, the area, the very areas they say that it's rampaging
through in China, it makes no sense. Especially again when it's a supposedly a new
type coronavirus, novel. And you've got all these conflicting
theories, so far, theories about it, about many people don't even show the
symptoms until maybe two weeks have passed, some of them have no symptoms at
all, others will be carriers that are asymptomatic.
Canada reports fourth case, a patient who tested negative at first - scmp.com / 1 Feb 2020
We had them coming to Canada already who tested
negative, and then the next day or day after that they were found to be
contaminated, positive. It's insane
unless you want problems to spread. Or, or we are not being told much of
the truth. I do suspect that's one of the things about it too. It seems to be
very much like the SARS. There are
studies comparing it all the time to the SARS that affected pretty
well mainly Asians, Chinese.
You see, it's a lack of information that makes
people... So why would you not tell the
public that most of you may not, if they know this, this is speculation, if
they know this, who it really is going to effect, why aren't they telling the
public that? The same thing did happen
was SARS. It wasn't until about a year or two later they admitted that to the
general public, in Canada when it happened. So why would you hide the vital
information that might make people ease up a bit on their fear. Unless you want
to promote fear. And if you want fear, what do you really want to get out of
this whole fearful episode here? That's
the dangerous thing of course, is what they want out of it. More authority over
what? For future what? Etc.
I can remember previous times too, and I used to
do it on the air, when there's with outbreaks of the H1N1 and so on, it even
came out that the German politicians would not take the vaccines that
were given to the general public. That was in the newspapers, the general
newspapers at the time. Not conspiracy sites or anything, the general
newspapers. I remember doing the talks
on it too and reading from them. They
demanded a special type right away, and they did bring in a special type in for
them.
Also in pandemic/epidemic situations too, they
already have the gene sequences, they've sequenced the gene, the genetic makeup
of this particular coronavirus, and we also know what
type it is. And yes, there is actually, there is, they keep hammering anybody who says
this, but there's a patent there for this particular type of virus. Maybe not
the exact match of it, I don't even know, but there's a patent in there. We know this, it's been across in the big
newspapers now, after blacklisting anybody who mentioned it before but now it's
okay for, hhmph, the media to mention.
With any patent they've got to have a vaccine for
it, you know. That's just it. And whoever has a vaccine is going to make
billions on this. Billions. I always
remember the book about the Rothschilds and how they made money and so on. One
of the first Rothschilds in London was asked what was the
best time, because the speculators are always into following them like
greyhounds trying to jump in the markets and so on. But they said, when is
the best time to make money? He says, when
blood is running in the streets. Because people are terrified, you
see. That's the key to that. When folk are terrified, you can make a
fortune.
During the great plagues in London in England there
were people selling rose scented handkerchiefs to the people saying that the
fragrance of the rose literally killed this strange mist or whatever, they
didn't have a name for this bacteria. They knew it was something in the air,
they knew that, or something, they just knew that,
they knew that much. They didn't have the microscope to see exactly what it was
back then. But they call it like a foul, a foulness in the air, a miasma type
of thing, or even the fog rolling in from the Thames. The people were making a fortune selling
these handkerchiefs with rose scents in them saying it would cure them, you see,
it would repel this disease, this terrible disease that was this plague upon
the people. So yeah, you'll always have the con man making a fortune.
One story I've got to mention too is one
preacher, he's dead now but he used to be on television yeears
ago. He had a big, big church down
California I think it was. He used to come on the air every day and he'd smoke
a cigar and chat away. Some good talks he gave too, mind you. But his thing was
money, money, money, he had lots of money.
As many of the strange followers of God do in America, strange that,
isn't it? But these are the authorized
ones. The ones who are not authorized
and just preach basic Christianity don't seem to get a leg up. The
ones who get money are pushing a different agenda, it's political agendas for
different people and areas outside of the religion.
However, he used to go on and he mentioned that
the guy that came in to do a lot of the work for public relations for his
organization used to work in Israel, on tours of Israel, you know, the old
places and so on. That he made a fortune, this guy, by selling, he used to take
bits of the stones from walls along some of the paths and so on near Bethlehem
and say that these were actually part of the paving
stones that the donkey carrying Jesus walked over. He made a fortune off it Because
folk lap, they lap up that kind of stuff, you know.
It's not good enough to know that someone lived
in the planet, they have to have something tangible,
like a talisman you can see, you can touch. It’s a human thing obviously, very
human thing. There's the guys who are very sharp who
make a fortune on it. It's the same thing when it comes to terror and fear. You
get all kinds of people out there making fortunes. I can remember the Y2K when
folk even in the patriot movement were selling everything but the kitchen sink,
including generators. Because the world was going to stop, you Know. Oh yeah,
what hype. And folk, you know today who
have done awfully well out of it are still on, talking about the same thing
again. [Alan chuckles.] Yeah.
Fortunes off fear and terror, 'eh.
Then of course it was, they had the Mayan thing
down pat. And that never happened either. The same thing, oh my God, you know.
Fortunes, fortunes, fortunes. Rothschild, when do you make the money, your biggest killing is when the blood is
running in the streets. Meaning, when folk are petrified and
terrified, that's when you make money. Whatever you need or it's claimed that
you need is going to be, it's going to cost thousands of percent more than it
ever did before. That's how it is. Anyway, I'm off the topic here.
Be careful out there what you're looking at
because as I say, if this is basically going to affect the same groupings that
the SARS affected, it's not going to be horrific to most people across the
world, obviously.
But what they want to get at the top by not
explaining all this… it's the secrecy of those in charge that creates
conspiracy, you understand that? There's
no reason why they can't tell the public what I'm just saying. So, if
they're keeping it back, they want you to be terrified and they have other
objectives. The World Health Organization is in its element. It's never had
so much power since the last SARS outbreak in Canada, you see. It's the West they want to be petrified and
terrified about it. Suddenly they're swaggering around again, we're an
authority here, you see, we're an authority. All your organizations truly loved
to swagger with authority. Even if they've got nothing to tell you that's
helpful. [Alan laughing.]
So if they could really use this to get into the
next phase of, again, ID cards, if they want to bring out rationing down the
road, get you all used to this new austerity program, they might just use
this. I don't know, I really don't know. I really just don't
know. But I'll put plenty of links up tonight of your general news
organizations saying the very things that were condemned the week before by THE
authorities calling it fake news. But it's okay when the big
authorized ones say the same things, 'eh?
And talking about fake news, again, a little off
topic as well. Not really, it comes in I suppose. Today I was talking to
someone again on fake news and I just mention the fact, because I'd read it on
the air a few years ago that MIT came out, it was in the newspapers, the
general newspapers that an MIT professor, because you see, MIT, certain
departments are given basically NSA clearance into a lot of the real-time data
transfers of folks chit chat and social media and so on so and they can do
real-time studies. And they're constantly putting out stuff there and watching
you all chat and copy and complain or give you views in real time. It's all
monitored through algorithms and so on. But an MIT department had a professor
who told his class to start putting out fake history, and in real-time, with it
being spread across the world as folk grabbed it, parroted it off, without
checking themselves, or simply adopted it thinking, well these people must
know what they're talking about, I'm just little ole me, and they start
parroting the lies, you see.
Well, when you've got authorizations from
professors at MIT to put out fake news, how dare anybody complain about anybody
else putting out their opinions on stuff that they've research themselves. How dare they. They’re training us all to be
children. No, we're not children. We're
adults and we are allowed opinions. In a supposedly free society. But a free
society is the last thing the authoritarian personalities want. I hope you
understand that.
But don't panic about things is what I'm saying.
Don't panic about things. Understand them but don't panic. The control
factor is a very old, they've been used through centuries and centuries with
the same techniques by those in authority. It's always the same techniques that
are used. But fear is at the top of it. And there's many ways to bring fear
about, from basic needs to survival, food, shelter, clothing, heat, etc.
Now, one thing I want to mention here too, is yes,
there were people from China who worked in a lab in Canada, Winnipeg, a big Biolab,
who certainly were kicked out of their positions in Canada and escorted out of
the labs by the RCMP in 2019. This stuff is mainstream media now so I guess you
can mention it. But what's interesting too, is the Harvard researcher too that
was charged for dealing with the same Biolab that the woman who was working in
the Canadian Biolab from China, apparently she was
also involved in a Biolab where this thing broke out in China. So, you definitely have, there's plenty of evidence of what's going
on for those at the top. Which they won't share with the public.
You're supposed to just be dumb and silly and
leave everything to the ones who manage us. That's not, that is not being an
adult when you allow that to happen, folks. It really isn't. And how dare they take on the responsibility
of thinking for us, hm. How can you
possibly believe in democracies, 'eh?
Anyway, this article it says…
U.S. charges three, including Harvard
researcher, with lying about China ties
reuters.com / 28 Jan 2020
(Alan: I mentioned it before
but I didn't go into any depth with it.)
(Reuters) - A Harvard University department chair and two Chinese nationals who were researchers at Boston University and a Boston hospital were charged on Tuesday with lying about their alleged links to the Chinese government.
(A: Now, this is an odd article, it's an odd
story. But it says…)
The charges are part of an aggressive effort by U.S. authorities to block what they say are Chinese attempts to steal American scientific and technological advances.
(A: And China
does this, it's true, they're famous for it, all kinds of technology, but
including biochemical industry and all the rest of it too.)
“Prosecutors charged Charles Lieber,
(A: Now,
Charles Lieber is a big shot in the science world, in the bio science world.
Because he's into biology and nanotechnology, it's quite fascinating
really. Charles Lieber…)
chair of Harvard University’s Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, (A: He was charged with…) with lying about participating in China’s Thousand Talents Plan, which aims to attract research specialists working overseas.
When you really dig into it too, this professor
also was working with the Pentagon. You're looking at… You can start to sniff
where it's all going, you know what I'm saying?
But when I read it, I thought, this guy, his big field is
nanotechnology, including incredibly fine threads. Now, you tie that in with
the articles just come out a couple of days ago on Elon Musk's brain chips basically,
his nanotechnology for the brain, using this incredibly fine nano wires
basically. Well, this is what this guy works with, obviously. This was this
guy's area.
He also has lots of awards for things, including
the kind of, almost the tubular type particles when you delve into it. Which I would think would be connected to
that Morgellons’s disease [Alan chuckles.] that broke out quite a few years back. And the
folk were called paranoid, nuts and all the rest of it. But the fact is, these
things under the microscope show up. Definitely nanoparticles,
long tubes, little tubes, literally like threads but nanoparticle sized. Well
this is this guy's area of expertise.
Charles M. Lieber - en.wikipedia.org
And then when I saw the one with Elon Musk that
talked about…
The terrifying 'Neuralink'
machine that Elon Musk will use to turn humans into cyborgs by putting a chip
in their BRAIN gets an 'awesome' upgrade, the tech billionaire claims
dailymail.co.uk / 7 Feb 2020
(A: And that's from the Daily Mail online. So, it's not a conspiracy paper, if they say
it then, you see. It's only if it's
little ole you says it, then it's conspiracy. But there you go, he
talks about the…)
...tiny and flexible 'threads' which are ten times thinner than a human hair and can be inserted directly into the brain.
Back to what I was just talking about again,
there's this one with a fella who's a scientist and that's his specialty, who
also was working with the Chinese. And maybe even passing all the data he was
getting from Harvard and all the different research that's going on there and
elsewhere, over to the Chinese. Quite amazing. Anyway, he got arrested.
And let's be honest, this went on for yeears with this fella. How can you possibly allow all that
for years, without knowing? Who's
kidding...? They knew all about it. He's
had awards galore from China, and awards from America, all the
different... [Alan chuckles.] So this is no... Why now? Why would you bring it up
now, 'eh? Interesting. Awfully interesting. At least I find it
interesting.
It's only when you see how things tie together
and where the future is supposed to go. And d'you realize how many movies they
churned out about the zombies. Remember the police, the military exercises a
few years ago, they called it the zombie exercise or zombie? Which is really
the con name for, oh, folk who get contaminated with a big breakout. You see it in movie after movie. I don't know
why but suddenly you turn into a zombie supposedly. You're subhuman. And then
your governments and your troops start killing them all. What kind of message
is that?
What kind of message is that too young guys who
are in the military, who are brought up playing the games that are churned out
with these movies, alongside the movies, to see how many zombies you can
kill? No one seems to connect these things,
but everyone's influenced by them. You're no longer a person now, you see,
you're burden on society, you're infected. You're dangerous, you're infected.
The natural human condition in the Western world
was always to help people. Right to the end. You do all you could. So why are
the movie producers, why have they been painting this other thing, that
suddenly when folk get infected they're out to kill
you or eat you or whatever it happens to be? Incredible dehumanization. Incredible.
That doesn't bode well for where things are meant to go.
I'll put these articles up as I say. I wasn't
sure exactly what to talk about tonight again either. But I don't want to go on and on about plague
or whatever or disease or what's happening on the planet. But I do like to see
what the governments want out of it since they break the rules. You
don't bring in people from infected areas to uninfected areas, unless you want
it to spread. If it's true that there's no symptoms with many of them until at
least two weeks, sometimes longer... Not
everyone is the same in clockwork fashion when it comes to biology, folks.
The other thing is too, there's no doubt about
it, there's already a massive slow down in trade from China, the
manufacturer of the world. The West gave
communist China the financing and the business, for years and years the
governments of the West have wooed all the students in with special deals,
train them to be engineers. I can remember living through it. I thought, why
are they bringing thousands of people in from China, train them to be
engineers, when they don't have jobs to go back to? And then bingo, they signed
the trade deals, off went your factories to China. It's all planned in advance.
All planned, folks.
So now they're surprised that, what are they
going to do when you can't get this that or the other? when no one's making the same articles
anymore, all the factories are over there?
That's all planned, folks. What we're taught when we are taught to be
naïve, naturally to believe everything is real and your government's really there to look after you, your government should never
ever give its main and stable supplies of necessary goods, businesses to make
these things, over to another country outside of the country. You have to be able to support yourselves in any kind of crisis
time.
Another thing too, even with free trade, with all
the food coming in from another country, Britain almost collapsed with World
War I, then World War II definitely, because of the submarines sinking shipping
and so on. But there wasn't enough farmers left. In
fact, there was lots of farms left from World War I where there might have been
an old, a grandfather still trying to run it himself. The government took it
off them. Because all the young guys had been killed in the first world war. So,
the second world war comes along, the government commandeers them all to make
sure, to try to get food growing. Because you couldn't get food. Britain
imported way too much food. Still does. The US is doing the same thing. Canada
does too. Free trade. You must accept
the stuff from other countries. Which means your own folk can’t compete. This
is all managed this way. Think about it.
Anyway, don't panic as I say. Because unless this
has been truly, truly hyped up beyond recognition, a
coronavirus, and remember, all colds and flus are types in the same category, and they
have different characteristics of course naturally too. That's how they give
them, depending on the protein coatings and so on they'll give them a different
names, H1 whatever it happens to be. You
have to remember that generally viruses are called the
great, well, they're robbers. They go
in, they take DNA from victims, that you get infected, it leaves some of that
DNA behind in you, as it clears itself up it will steal some of yours as well,
your DNA. So, it's constantly mutating. And generally, they mutate into a
harmless type of virus. So, we'll have to wait and see what happens with this
one.
Even though I say that,
it's also true that I read the articles years ago from Porton Down in England
where they've got a tremendous arsenal of bio weaponry. A reporter from one of
the newspapers, maybe the Telegraph, I can't remember off the bat, but I do
have the article still. He was allowed
in for a day in the biowarfare department, where he said he couldn't believe
it, in the morning they were sipping having coffee before work began and
they're quick casually talking about ethnic
specific viruses and so on, which they already had, and how they could release them and that
these would sweep across the nation within two or three weeks, kill X amount of
people. They were programmed literally to then stop reproducing
themselves, just like clockwork. I mean, that's how advanced the biowarfare
departments are.
And these guys rake in the cash because they're
psychopaths. Recruited by those who rule you who are also psychopaths. If you
met them, you'd probably like them. They'd be smiling and very likable. But
they have no conscience as you or I would have conscience. Or fear, they have a
complete lack of fear too. Awfully
well-paid to find ways to destroy. That's their job.
So anyway, as I say, we'll have to wait and see
what happens with this one. And to see
what the governments and the world system of government wants out of it.
Because they will definitely make hay while the sun shines
you might say. But don't panic about things. Don't get hyped up about the fear
and terror.
But you should really have a few folk that you
know, hopefully, well enough to help each other out if times get tough with
embargoes on food or whatever it happens to be. You just don't know, you see.
You should have enough to last you over a bad, really bad,
even a few weeks would help you out of tough times. It depends, as I say, what
the big governmental global system wants out of this over the general public
with how they want to rule us all for the next step. 9/11 was one step, and the
antiterrorism bill, which is a terrorism bill, terror upon the public where
you've got no freedom at all. The next
step is into austerity, etc. We’ll wait and see what happens.
But no doubt about it, we're living in a time
when the economy is stagnant, it's been stagnant for years. We know that it's a
job, you talk about recoveries, it's a jobless recovery, as they fudge numbers
and figures, it's all a joke, that's a joke.
We know that. There's more and more automation going on too so there's
less and less work anyway. But the financial system is awful because the
currency literally is so inflated that you need more and more and more to get
the same basic foodstuffs, etc. It's out of sight here in Canada.
So yeah, they've also got a plan in mind to
make something happen. Because they've got something planned for the next
step, sure. We'll have to just wait and see.
But don't worry. We're kept in
fear, every generation is kept in fear of wars, rumors of wars, financial
crisis, etc., plagues, pestilences, all the usual stuff. And you shouldn't live
in terror about it either.
The abusers, those who rule you are
abusers. Those who use fear to rule are abusers. They
know that those who are abused and brought up with the abuse, and encourage
this, they encourage the abused to turn to the abuser for help. We're
here to help you, hm, but here's the conditions. That's the simple technique of
managing the public on behalf of the authoritarian society in which we live.
Last night it was down to about 15 below on the
Fahrenheit scale here in Canada. Because
of global warming, you see. But at least the nights are getting, the evenings
are getting a bit lighter, or light is staying longer before it gets dark. So
hopefully there is a new day coming where eventually we’ll have longer days
with some sunshine, etc., and things won't be so unpleasant, and the gloom and
doom of winter time.
It's… you have to remember that folk really
have to look upon, again it's a positive side, of just getting by day-to-day.
That's what it's about, isn't it?
Because we certainly live in a very, very,
really, it's a tremendously arrogant and arrogantly abusive system of
authoritarians with lots of letters behind their names and fancy titles, etc.
etc. etc. So, take care everybody out there of yourselves. Have a little group
hopefully that will help each other out in tough times. And you should have a
few friends. Hopefully. Hopefully you have a few friends anyway.
Most folk, like Plato said, are lucky to have
four or five friends in their lifetime. That's the reality. All this fake
friend stuff on chat rooms and that, it's all nonsense. Real friends are hard
to even find. So, if you do find them, even regardless of your squabbles or
differences and all the rest of it, try to keep in with each other. Because
yeah, you do need folk now and then. You certainly do.
Now remember too, you can also help me tick along
here by buying the books and discs @cuttingthroughthematrix.com or
donating, for using my shows and so on. Or my talks. I hate to call them shows, they're talks.
Everybody wants entertainment and show business today, but I give talks, with
information that can be verified at least, or you can check it out and find out
for yourselves what you want to really think, believe, or even contemplate in
life. So, buy the books and discs or
donate to me @cuttingthroughthematrix.com. Go into the site, you'll find out how to do
it. Also make a list of all the sites
you see listed on the .com site, all the other official sites in case any of
them go down you can always get the talks I do from the other sites as well.
Remember, you can send cash or check. In some
countries you can send international postal money orders. You can't send them from the States anymore
apparently, or Canada. But you can use PayPal and you can, as I say, send cash
or check and you're fine. Or Money Gram too I think that works as well. That
will help me tick along because I don't sell anything to make money off, with
lots of claims of efficacy and saving your lives or anything else. I just give
you information. I think hopefully if you can keep a strong mind you'd be
surprised at what you can endure in this world especially under the system I've
been talking about tonight.
So for myself, Alan Watt from Ontario Canada,
it's good night and may your God or your gods go with you.
