Welcome to the Present Day – You Are Being Controlled
Let’s not sugarcoat it: you are being controlled. Everything you think you’re freely choosing—what you eat, what you watch, where you work, and who you talk to—is all being manipulated by systems much larger than you.
These systems are designed to keep you docile, consuming, and distracted.
Systems thrive on compliance. You go to work because you need money, not because you love what you do. You come home exhausted, craving junk food and mindless TV because that’s what’s been fed to you as “normal.” Your binge-watching habit? Not a coincidence. It’s engineered to make sure you stay right where you are—on your couch, distracted, and permissive. Why do you think shows like Netflix’s “Squid Game,” a dark commentary on how humans are willing to do anything for money, become global phenomena?
Because these stories reflect your reality more than you realize.
The reality is, you’re addicted—to convenience, to distractions, and to the system itself. The food you eat is laced with chemicals designed to make you crave more. Fast food, once a cheap meal, has skyrocketed in price while providing less and less actual nutrition. You’re being fed empty calories—literally and figuratively.
But it’s not just food. Look at your entertainment. Algorithms have learned to predict your every move, showing you exactly what will keep you scrolling, what will trigger your emotions, and what will make you buy. Ever wonder why the quality of products has deteriorated while the prices have gone up? It’s because they don’t care about quality—they care about keeping you hungry, keeping you dissatisfied just enough to keep consuming.
And here’s a gut punch: you are raising your children to be even deeper in the system than you are.
You Are the Experiment – The Digital Age and Physiological Control
Everywhere you go, you are being tracked. Every device in your pocket is a listening tool. Your Alexa, your smartphone, your Oura Ring, your Fitbit—they are all data-gathering devices, mapping out your habits, your desires, your needs. You are constantly feeding information into a system designed to control your behavior.
Here’s the truth: You are part of a massive social experiment. Governments and corporations don’t just observe your actions—they engineer your environment to produce certain outcomes. Want proof? Look at the pandemic. It wasn’t just a health crisis; it was a global experiment in how far populations could be pushed, how compliant they would become. Did you ever question why digital work and remote learning became the norm so fast? Did you notice how quickly you adapted to constant surveillance—Zoom meetings, remote monitoring, tracking apps—after years of skepticism and refusal to get online?
But the surveillance doesn’t stop with your job. Cameras are everywhere. Machine voices in stores aren’t just there for convenience—just like merchandising, they’re tailored to specific demographics, designed to subtly influence shopper behavior. I’ve been to grocery stores where self-checkout machines talk with a childlike voice in areas rife with pedophilia and generational poverty. This isn’t random. It’s calculated manipulation, designed to work on the subconscious, grooming populations in ways most people don’t even see.
Take a look at the marketing in your community. What kind of ads do you see? Are you bombarded with fast food, liquor, and gambling ads? It’s not a coincidence that these ads target poorer neighborhoods more aggressively. The system knows who’s vulnerable, and it plays those vulnerabilities like a finely tuned instrument.
The Organizational System – From Warfare to Workplaces
The workplace as you know it is an extension of military strategy. After World War II, governments and corporations learned from the intelligence: How do we motivate soldiers to kill on command? How do we control large populations without them realizing they’re being controlled? The answers were incorporated into organizational psychology and human resource management. You may think your HR department is there to support you. It’s not. It’s there to protect the system, to ensure you stay productive and compliant.
Your job has been turned into a scientific experiment, or soon will be—tracking every email, every keystroke, every minute you’re away from your desk. In the gig economy, where Uber or DoorDash drivers are managed by algorithms, workers are monitored and controlled not by a boss, but by faceless technology that extracts every ounce of labor it can.
MKUltra, the CIA’s notorious mind-control experiment, might seem like ancient history, but its tactics are alive and well. They’ve just been refined. Instead of using LSD or electroshock therapy—though still actively used in lesser instances— psychological profiling, data algorithms, and behavioral engineering are commonplace and acceptable. The owners of data know what will motivate you, what will make you compliant, and how to push you to your breaking point—without you even realizing it.
And of course the lessons learned by governments have been effectively adopted by organized crime syndicates and terrorists. Radical organizations use the same methods—manipulating vulnerable populations into believing they must sacrifice their lives for a higher cause. The same psychological warfare tactics used in corporate offices are at play in the creation of zealous soldiers willing to die for ideology.
Governments, industries, and organizations today don’t want to crumble. They don’t want to lose control. That’s why they are perfectly comfortable with the rising suicide rates, the increase in depression, and the growing mental health epidemic. A sick, broken population is easier to manage, control, and profit from than a healthy, empowered one.
You Are Raising the Next Generation of Addicts
Here’s the truth no one wants to admit: Your children are not just inheriting your bad habits—they’re being programmed to be worse off than you. And it’s happening right in front of your eyes.
You hand them a tablet to keep them occupied. You put on cartoons to give yourself a moment of peace. But here’s the reality: those cartoons, those games, those YouTube videos—they’re all engineered to addict. Bright colors, high-pitched voices, and fast-paced edits are designed to keep your children glued to the screen. They’re being trained to crave constant stimulation and instant gratification, a never-ending loop of dopamine hits that will make them anxious, addicted, and disconnected.
They don’t know how to entertain themselves without a screen. They don’t know how to connect with others without social media. They are growing up in a world where self-worth is measured in likes and follows, where their relationships are filtered through apps, and their ideas are spoon-fed by algorithms. And when you get old and need their help? Don’t be surprised when they have no use for you. They’ve been trained to move on to the next thing, to discard what no longer serves them.
Think about it: Who will take care of you when the system no longer sees you as productive? You will be left in the care of underfunded, understaffed systems, where the people charged with your well-being may not care for you at all—often just showing up as warm bodies to occupy a line on someone’s spreadsheet. Look at the rising reports of abuse in elderly care homes, and tell me this isn’t the future we’re creating. I saw it firsthand with elderly relatives who’d been committed to facilities by their children, and having worked the front line for many years in social service fields, then falling ill myself. Trust me, you do not want to rely on today’s workforce for your welfare. Not one bit.
The Spiritual Crisis – Breaking Free Starts Within
Now, let’s get real: This is more than just a physical or mental crisis. What we are facing is a spiritual crisis—a complete disconnection from our true nature as human beings. The system doesn’t just want to control your mind and body; it wants to sever your connection to your soul, to God, to your purpose.
Think about it. When was the last time you felt truly connected—to yourself, to the people around you, to something greater? The system keeps you busy, keeps you reacting, keeps you consuming, so you don’t have time to stop and ask: Is this all there is?
The truth is, you have been disconnected from yourself for so long, you’ve forgotten what it feels like to be truly alive. That emptiness you feel? That sense of anxiety and stress that follows you around, no matter what you buy, no matter how many distractions you surround yourself with? It’s because the system is designed to sever you from your spiritual core—from that part of you that knows you are here for something more than just paying bills, working a job you can barely tolerate, and consuming endlessly.
This is the spiritual crisis of our age.
You were born into a world where the value of your life is measured by how productive you are—by how much you consume, by how much you produce. You’re judged upon societal acceptance—edification and expensive symbols. But that isn’t who you are. You are not a commodity, you are not a number, and you are not here to be part of a system that treats you like a cog in a machine.
The system keeps you reacting, keeps you numb. It’s easier that way. It wants you to feel powerless, because as long as you feel that way, you won’t question it. You’ll continue to live on autopilot, just like your parents did, just like your children are now learning to do. But the truth is, you are not powerless. You were born with the ability to reclaim your spirit, to reconnect to something bigger than the noise and distraction that fills your life.
Here’s the real gut punch: They don’t want you to wake up. The system thrives on you being disconnected from your true nature because an awakened soul is dangerous. A soul connected to its true purpose has the power to see beyond the distractions, beyond the material world, and into the higher reality that we are all meant to live in.
The Tools of the System – Breaking Down the Layers of Control
Let’s not beat around the bush: You are living in a world where everything is designed to keep you distracted, dependent, and disconnected. It’s not just one thing—it’s every layer of your existence. Like an abused spouse, you’ve been conditioned to bear the weight of these burdens without guilt, to accept the pain as if it’s yours to carry, when in fact, it never should have been. You deserve to know.
Your food: The processed junk that fills your grocery store shelves is engineered to keep you addicted. Fast food and convenience snacks are full of sugar, preservatives, and artificial ingredients that alter your brain chemistry, making you crave more and more. Food is no longer about nourishment; it’s about control.
Your healthcare: The pharmaceutical industry doesn’t make money from healing you—it makes money from keeping you sick and dependent. Every year, the number of diagnoses for mental health disorders rises, and with it, the number of prescriptions. But ask yourself this: Are people getting better, or are they getting sicker?
Your technology: Every device you own is not just a tool; it’s a surveillance device. Your phone, your smart TV, your Alexa—they’re all watching, listening, and gathering data on you. And this data isn’t just being used to sell you products. It’s being used to keep you predictable. When you’re predictable, you’re controllable.
Your education: The very foundation of how we learn has been corrupted. Our schools are designed to produce compliant workers, not free thinkers. Children are not taught to question—they’re taught to obey. And when they struggle to fit into this rigid system, they are diagnosed with learning disabilities, medicated, and forced into narrow boxes that limit their potential.
The system controls every aspect of your life. It’s in the music you listen to, the movies you watch, the news you consume, and the places you shop. It’s so deeply embedded into your daily existence that you don’t even realize it’s there. But once you see it—once you see the matrix for what it is—you can’t unsee it.
And this is where the awakening begins.
The Awakening – What Comes Next?
Now that you’re starting to see it—the layers of control, the ways in which every aspect of your life is shaped by systems designed to keep you in line—what will you do? This isn’t just about getting angry or frustrated. This is about stepping away from the system altogether to gain perspective, not only for yourself but for your children's future.
Here’s where it gets real: You cannot change this system. It’s too big, too powerful, and too ingrained in the very fabric of our society. But you can choose to step back. You can choose to opt-out. And this isn’t about taking back power—because, as we’ve established, you were never meant to have any power in the first place.
This is about retreating from the system and finding your own way forward. It’s about cooperation, with awareness—awakening to the truth of your existence and reconnecting with something far greater than what the system has conditioned you to believe. And it's about breaking the cycle for your kids, who are watching you live a life dictated by the machine.
But how?
You must start by questioning everything. Look at your life—your job, your relationships, your daily habits—and ask yourself: Is this really serving me and my family? Or is this just another part of the system’s plan to keep me compliant?
It’s about stepping out of the noise and finding the silence where you can hear the voice of your soul again. It’s about reconnecting with your higher purpose—something that has nothing to do with how much money you make or how many likes you get on social media.
This isn’t about a quick fix. This is about a lifestyle change, a spiritual shift, one that will reshape your children’s world.
