It would be good if you amend the article because that quote is actually from Dr John Coleman's (he's former MI6) 1993 book about the Committee of 300 as someone already pointed out. It's not from Schwab. 100% confirmed because I've a PDF copy of the book. Better change it for the sake of credibility.

Oh, boy. I've had that already downloaded and frankly, I couldn't care less who is tracking me. Those people can build cases out of nothing and they have to, in order to justify their salaries. I am completely defenseless.

At this point, they're tracking everything and everyone anyway :). Who cares anymore... They're coming for all of us sooner or later. Might as well throw some caution to the winds... Better to speak up and share information than to live in fear at this point...

Staying silent only speeds up the process.

Mind-blowing Ray. While I've been learning and tracking this One World Trajectory since the early 70s you have done a great job putting the trajectory into a perspective that is up-to-date. Your analysis puts current events onto the big picture like a semi-transparent overlay on the original speculations brought forth by over thinkers I read beginning in 1974 and continued into the 80s, then the 90s and onward toward today.

I commend your determination. I also commend your 'casting cares to the wind' attitude. Truly, 'who cares if they are tracking us' (of course they are) as many have pointed out recently. The tracking is not as comprehensive as God's tracker. Ha ha at the globalists. Their arrogance is astounding. "I will be like the Most High" they say in their smoke filled rooms behind the 'curtain'.

We must keep sounding the alarm and peeling back the curtain at every possible opportunity to do so. Keep up the good work.

Who is "Agent" and where does 'it' come up with all those claims? Any insight would be helpful before I start down the rabbit trail he offers up.

Thanks and many blessings.

Thank you for your appreciation.

Their arrogance looks well-founded enough to deceive them. Those who can survive the next five years, will most likely prevail as organic humans, but only a select few can make it. Living off-grid in groups of 2-3 is not for most.

Please, be specific about your question(s) about "Agent." He usually focuses on minuscule details without even ever implementing it into a global perspective. Yet quite a few of his findings (about 55-65%) are applicable even in my interpretive frame.

Based on how many times my life could have ended in a dead end (lost count at 24 or so), I am a sucker for Providence. :)

The application of a coherent systematic methodology to Satanic Swabian incoherence with the illusion of order appears self-defeating. You present your 'explanations and predictions' as a consequence of deductive reasoning from 'laws and theories' themselves arrived at through inductive reasoning from facts acquired through observation.

Yes, they told us they were out to get us, their actions reveal the genuine nature of their intent, and the published aspirations of a deluded megalomaniac reveal the incoherent maniacal delusion and nightmare vision. What we actually see is growing incoherence masquerading as coherence.

The quiet exponential growth of unintended COHERENT consequence all the while continues. At some point not too far ahead the OverLords will run aground this massive shoal.

Agenda 21 preceded the rebadged 'Agenda 2030' aka 'Transformational SDGs Agenda' that was presented in draft form in 2015 to the 70th UN General Assembly that implemented it. nb. The 70th Assembly was opened by Jorge Bergoglio. The UNEP formed by Maurice Strong (Canadian communist and criminal) provided the necessary wide reaching environmental subversion of the UN. The WHO pursued medical and ethically sanctioned tyranny. The WEF went after the corporate and financial entities. These three pillars are welded together in common purpose, cemented most recently by BMGF, and sundry other corporate identities, together with perverted State elements (DOD, FBI et al) in public/private partnerships. Neo-Marxist rainbow poison has been the culturally and societally lethal injection.

If you truly believe that 7/8 of the global populace are so dull witted as to sit idly by and allow themselves to be erased there appears vanishing purpose in your pursuit of this substack output or of its remuneration. And to garner remuneration from an incipient apocalypse beggars belief.

Human qualities such as intelligence are subject to 'normal' or Gaussian distribution. Clearly, this does not possess the same distribution as the innate or acquired quality of skepticism. Mattias Desmet suggests some 5% of individuals (not correlated to intelligence) are default 'awake'. Awakening and demand for coherence become inevitable to a growing proportion as the democide and wider encroachments continue, while at the same time the elite remain visibly unaffected. Strains of the French Revolution anyone?

Frankly, Ray, What the 𝗙𝗨𝗖𝗞, am I supposed to do, about any of this? I see what's coming towards us like a megatsunami at Warp Factor Nine, but at this point having wreaked my life with a useless music performance degree and not being allowed to correct it thanks to meddlesome parents, 40 years later at 64 I find myself fat and out of shape; supporting a wife, a cat and our vaccine-injured step-daughter on a security guard's wages. 22% of my income is stolen by the government before I even see it. 64% of the remainder is sucked up for rent on our shabby mouse-infested 500 square-foot apartment.

And of course 95% at least of the population? Those fucktards are so god-damned stupid they'll swallow it all whole again and it will be lock-downs and vaccine passports and if I kick up any kind of a fuss about this orchestrated bullshit insanity?

Weirder and weirder...

jameswtravers24 June 2000

If one had to use just one word to sum up Alphaville¸that word would have to be weird. It is a film that constantly challenges our preconceptions, our expectations, and, as a result, manages to be both deeply disturbing and very funny at the same time.

The film begins as what appears to be a pastiche of the American detective movie of the 1950s, but then suddenly takes a dive into the Twilight Zone. What follows is a perplexing 100 minutes of cinema that manages to be classic film noir, imaginative science-fiction, an action-packed and suspenseful thriller and - most surprisingly of all - a very entertaining black comedy, in the mould of Dr Strangeglove. By trying to blend so many contrasting elements, the result could have easily been a disaster. That the films succeeds, and succeeds admirably, is down largely to two factors.

Firstly, Eddy Constantine plays the part of Lemmy Caution, the private detective, throughout with total conviction, seemingly oblivious to the fact that he is playing a complete parody (and a very funny one) of a character he had made his own in the preceding decade. In the 1950s, Constantine played the hard-nosed detective in a series of French films of the traditional American detective genre. It would have been very easy for a lesser actor to ham the part up or downplay the character, but Constantine does neither, and the result is utterly brilliant.

We have a familiar character transposed from a familiar milieu into a parallel universe, where everything appears to be superficially familiar but then is shown to be a distortion of what we see in our own world - a kind of Humphrey Bogart through the Looking Glass. Over and over again, we are surprised at how easily we are tripped up and misled by our own preconceptions. This would not have been possible without a strong central character who is firmly anchored in our world - and Eddy Constantine serves this purpose brilliantly. The fact that he works so well with his co-star, the superb and very stylish Anna Karina, is a bonus.

Secondly, Alphaville's creator, Godard, appears to be at the height of his powers as a director. He shows complete mastery of the revolutionary cinematographic techniques which he thrust onto an unsuspecting world in the early years of the New Wave (the late 1950s). Far more accessible than some of Godard's contemporary films (such as La Chinoise and Weekend), the style is nonetheless distinctive and fresh, somehow giving the film an extra dimension that constantly surprises and entertains.

Godard is also responsible for the script, an adaptation of a novel by Peter Cheyney, where he manages, quite cleverly, to draw parallels between the futuristic soulless society of Alphaville and contemporary France. (There are more than a few direct statements to suggest that Godard regards his own country as Alphaville - for example the infamous HLM joke. Godard appears to see France ending up as an isolationist state, seeming to have imperialistic ambitions, with its language under strict state control - not an uncommon caricature of the country in the latter years of the 20th century.)

Popular concerns about the impact of computer technology on society are also exploited by Godard who suggests that widespread dehumanisation and total state control will be the outcome. Paul Misraki's enigmatic background music adds to the eerie other-wordly atmosphere of the ensemble.Overall, an amazing film that never ceases to surprise and shock. A dark and very frightening thriller, a comic pastiche of detective films, a love story, a sci-fi movie with a power-mad (and asthmatic) computer... how Godard managed to pull this one off is probably one of the great mysteries of cinema history. Watch, listen, laugh and be amazed.

=======

“Professor von Braun (Howard Vernon) has invented the omniscient computer

that rules the lives of the Alphaville citizens...

The dominating computer, reducing life to ‘logic’...

replaces the individual’s will with a tranquilized submission...

In Alphaville, by computer decree, killing is a spectator sport.

At a swimming pool, illogical [disobedient] men...are blindfolded

and made to stand on diving boards.

They are shot

and fall into the water, whereupon girls with knives dive

into the pool and hack at the bodies.

All this is greeted with polite applause from the tranquilized onlookers.

The atmosphere is totally unemotional.”

- Film historian Gordon Gow in Suspense in the Cinema (1968).

Thanks for the insights.

I have a slightly different take. It’s been my experience in educational settings and beyond that “deductive” thought has long been the norm and even amongst the “highly” credentialed the capacity to think inductively is uncommon and seldom taught. For example, we have disciplines and these subject areas, majors/degrees, intentionally create departments, silos and compartmentalization of thought, understanding and action. All by design so that instead of connecting dots/putting the puzzle together, we’re seemingly always starting with a part of the whole, in the middle and working backwards. Darwin’s dangerous idea, natural selection random mutation, chance, starting in the middle and working backwards gives us the theory of evolution, the premise that we evolved from lower to higher levels of complexity. And complexity, by its very nature is a series of whole-part-whole relationships.

I’ve been attempting to engage people for decades to present the big picture through induction to those who express varying degrees of interest and capacity about the world we live in and the mess we find ourselves in, and how one can respond. Importantly, although I’ve likely studied across disciplines more than most I do NOT ever assume I am the smartest person in the room or discussion. Nevertheless, for my elevator speeches I do work from several assumptions such as: there’s an “end game” and there’s strategies and goals that are part of their intended outcome or agenda; and key processes are employed by those entities in power to ensure defined results.

Stated differently, the parasitical power class use what’s called the Delphi Method which starts with an end goal or desired outcome and it’s the “new singularity” H+, transhumanism. No longer human. Augmented. Immortal. Like gods.

To set the stage for this the Nosferatu condition the non initiates through every means possible and their number one strategy is a Jesuit construct called “learning against learning,” which is creating a false reality and presenting it as truth across multi-domain platforms (eduction, media, religion, economics, science and technology).

Franz Boaz the founder of Anthropology argued the culture or context always reigns supreme, and because culture is an emergent behavioral phenomenon those in power will always work from the Delphi Method and the ends justify the means.

For simplicity sake and full disclosure I readily admit that I think we are spiritual beings who are housed in physical bodies and we are here to redeem ourselves, prove ourselves worthy to the creator God who is a HE because HE exists outside of time and space.

The Nosferatu may hold similar views in that they profess to believe in “soul recycling” that legitimizes their might is right, evil is desirable and necessary for their betterment (and that is the message their dark lords enforce upon them along with rituals such as human (blood) sacrifice because life is in the blood and that’s where the demonic realm gets it’s power.

Crazy? Perhaps but human suffering and misery is their plan and one can find it in all of their open source documents from Club of Rome: Limits to Growth to Report from Iron Mountain: Blue Print for Tyranny to Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars to Agendas 21 and 2030. In short, the Octopus says they are at war with “humanity” because humanity itself is the enemy that must be eliminated. Stated differently, same playbook, same plays.

The parasitical elite are all Malthusian. De-poppers. Vampires. They create no value and have lost all capacity for conscience and compassion and adding further to their demise they’ve attempted through blood oaths and occult rituals to seek the false promises of H+ and become irredeemable.

I’ve barely scratched the surface but will close with the observation that we’ve been severely dumbed down to their plans and we find our family and friends and neighbors In serious denial about how monstrous the Nosferatu plans are and how far along they are at imploding everything that’s good and virtuous about our creator and creation.

When the broadcast their constant agitprop: ordo ab chaos and declare war on humanity itself we should take their sorcery deadly serious. They employ spell casting and are undoubtedly serving the dark lords whom will turn in them in an instant when they’ve served their purpose. We’re their best hope yet we do not know and they’re so far gone they can’t fathom it. The most deceived are the deceivers!

Inductive is enforced, not taught.

It doesn't look like you and I differ in opinion: we are talking about different things. You focus on existential decisions, while I am engaged in mundane problem-solving.

In existential decisions, only the deductive approach can work, which is where Free Will can kick in:

https://rayhorvaththesource.substack.com/p/i-have-solved-the-question-of-free

Some criticize the method as "teleological argument," but there is no way around it.

There are many reasons why people tell lies, but as soon as they start pursuing a goal only because they have heavily invested in it (some people even fall for cheaper causes, too), they lose contact with their own selves and become unable to tell truth from lies or right from wrong. It usually takes a couple of years, but without an anchor, probably a lot less.

Excellent erudite discourse Ray, thank you - you are over the target as are many of us critical thinkers. Certainly the globalist plans will pass over the heads of at least 80% of the educated and most of the third world who will not even notice! Interesting that the final target is 500,000 (G-Stones) which I have mused over for many years equating to approx. 6% of the current populace.

It is estimated that at least 4bn have had a minimum one Vaxx shot so that fits with the SS-Oberst-Gruppenführer Schwab's target of 2050. That's an average of 160bn deaths a year after 2025 but it would likely be exponential. You may have seen this projection: https://expose-news.com/2023/04/17/deagels-2025-population-forecast-in-images/

"There were 67.1 million deaths in 2022. The world population, therefore, increased by 65.81 million in 2022(that is a net increase of 0.84%)." This graph is normal projected depletion: https://bigthink.com/the-present/births-and-deaths-per-year/

We know that they are targeting babies and children for this very reason. I know we are under multiple attack from toxins to food and water, and have been since it intensified after WW2. I don't believe there is any certainty that their plans will mature. However, in the event that they do, this is my alternative Plan B:

Thank you for inserting helpful links from your site with the introductions they deserve.

As much as I don't care for Kingston (she is following the delayed release of partial truths), she is correct about saying that this is an extinction-level event and the injections were poisons and sterilizing chemicals. Of course, focusing on the injections at this point is already too little, too late, when even the air, drinking water, and food contain all the nasties that the injections also did.

After all, the globalists (Kissinger?) announced it already around 1981, "First, we kill the elderly; after that, the stupid."

Well Ray, if we float in the same boat we will have to start rowing or sailing and if we are to get away from the poisons extant on our planet then there is a big world out there. My path of course is South to Cape Town and when/if it gets too bad, then bug out in the Karoo where we already have friends and fellow travellers.

The Bible and my faith has been my most important asset in discernment. Knowing right from wrong is necessary to correctly ascertain the truth.

That said, frameworks are crucial for every day life, but they can exist in a hierarchy of sorts. I would posit that your presuppositions, with which i happen to agree, were derived from a more universal one, even several or at varying levels within the hierarchy. While i understand that JBP is not the role model many had hoped (myself included), i did learn A LOT about psychology watching his videos. An important point he drives home is that we ALL operate on presuppositions. The world is far too complex and has far too many variables. Without presuppositions the human mind becomes paralyzed in analysis and one simply refuses to leave the house or even get out of bed in the morning.

The existential frame must be built on a rock, indeed. I am only talking about problem-solving frames.

Systematic thinking without fundamental premise(s) is impossible even in isolated closed system like Euclidean geometry.

Agree, but also doctors tend to use "Abductive reasoning, or abduction, is making a probable conclusion from what you know. If you see an abandoned bowl of hot soup on the table, you can use abduction to conclude the owner of the soup is likely returning soon." (or not like the Mary Celeste!)

Thank you for your continuing efforts to elucidate all this for us. I wrote my thesis in seminary 20+ years ago based on Bernard Lonergan’s theory of self-transcendence, ‘the willingness and malleability to change one’s mind when confronted with new things/information about the world.’ He explained how a person’s dramatic biases shut down their ability to process new information and ask further questions in order to reach a more coherent conclusion. I have attempted to live in a way that I am always seeking, asking, judging, deciding and hopefully changing my actions based on this process. It is a rather lonely journey without much face to face interaction with like-minded folks. Your writing provokes me to ask important questions, not exactly the same as a direct and thoughtful conversation with someone-but it helps. Thanks from a fellow sojourner of this crazy moment in time.

This article fills me with gratitude. Being able to see the big picture while also being able to understand the specific details is clearly a gift. I would like to claim that this was intentional but I feel it came naturally to me. Is it because my curiosity remains alive and well in my adulthood? Is it because I don’t trust anyone so have no choice but to put the puzzle together myself?

This article also fills me with grief. It is sad that the majority aren’t accessing or even aware of their potential.

If I want to live my own life, I cannot do it without taking responsibility for my decisions, which seems to describe your approach, too.

The majority is unable or unwilling to do that: they are playing the game of following someone else, which is fine for them as long as it works, and if it doesn't, they can blame someone else. This time, they won't have time to blame others or even to feel any remorse, because they are following the enemy's instructions in a zero-sum game.
