➝ Weaponizing Narratives: Psychological Warfare

We live during a time where there is a weaponization of narratives, and no one is immune to this type of false information targeting. To weaponize a narrative is to gain control over how people think and what they believe to be true, and to control their perception in the process of delivering them disinformation that is designed to weaken them and their defenses. Why do the controllers want you weakened? Reflect on that. What really weakens you emotionally and mentally and your ability to discern the truth and make informed decisions for yourself that empower and support your spiritual strength, which is needed to actualize your purpose in the world?

The number one weakening tactic used by those leaders controlled by those who hijack thought and generate propaganda is to get you to believe a lie as a truth. If you believe lies, you are being told that your perception, your beliefs, and your behavior's will be fully controlled, and your spiritual guidance will be distorted. You’ll think north is south and south is east, and this keeps you lost in the sea of confusion. If lies confuse your inner compass, you will not know in what direction you are traveling. That is what it means to weaponize narratives. Believing in lies weakens people. You cannot know in what direction you are travelling if your spiritual guidance system is messed up and you are moving in the wrong direction and are not aware that you need course correction.

This is an important part of psychological warfare, and mostly it is designed to confuse people into webs of disinformation and then get people to spread the disinformation as facts or make it into a belief system. For a moment, let us break that down. Weaponizing Narratives are how intelligentsia works to undermine a community of people, in which the attackers want to derail the truth and spin people off into false and made-up narratives that are pure deceptions, manipulations, and gaslighting tactics. Then they hire unscrupulous people to spread disinformation stories, spread them all over the internet, and get gullible and unaware people in the group or movement to believe it and spread these deceptions in their own communities, so that more of the public believe that the deception narrative is a real and true fact, when it is actually a made-up lie designed to derail the group of people who believe it.

Weaponized narratives are targeted attacks made against a group of people, and this extends to nations and countries, where the attacking group seeks to undermine an opponent’s civilization and identity and superimpose and subvert their will. In the global arena, this is commonly used and purposely designed to destroy a person’s culture and way of life. By generating confusion, complexity, and political and social schisms that generate polarization and conflict in many groups of people, usually people that identify with some kind of classification system (black, white, male, female, gay, transgender, etc.), it confounds the response on the part of those who are trying to defend themselves from the public onslaught of negatively skewed propaganda. Everyone knows that in controlling narratives, the truth does not matter; it is only what people believe to be true, so they say anything that they think they can get the population to believe in order to control the narratives in 3D reality. Sadly, this happens in the new age, when leaders tell the audience what they want to hear so they can gain a following because no one really wants to face unpleasant truths. It is really challenging to tell the truth in this environment of deception and lies; this is why so many people just follow the easier path and tell people what they want to hear.

➝ How does weaponized narrative work?

Today, thanks to the Internet and social media, the manipulation of our perception of the world is taking place on previously unimaginable scales of time, space, and intentionality. That, precisely, is the source of one of the greatest vulnerabilities we as individuals and as a society must learn to deal with. Today, many actors are exploiting these vulnerabilities. The situation is complicated by the increasingly rapid evolution of technology for producing and disseminating information. The core element of the weaponization of narratives is the manipulators' correct assessment of their intended audiences’ cognitive vulnerability—the premise that the audience they are targeting is already predisposed to accept it because it appeals to existing fears or anxieties that remain in the human subconscious.

So they look to manipulate subconscious fears in those groups as much as possible to control people. If you have no idea about your subconscious programmes and fears, you can become a puppet in their hands. For many of us that are awake and aware, this can appear like dark portal puppets. When you are awake, people around you can be used to attack you quite viciously, and this is a casualty on the earth, as many people are not aware, and thus their physical vessel is used to hurl energetic weaponry or other methods to attack you. Many of us as awakened starseeds have had the experience when a person just hates your guts for no apparent reason, decides to defame your character for their own amusement, and spreads a bunch of lies about you.

A fast-moving information deluge that saturates people with a lot of data coming from all directions is the ideal battleground for this kind of psychological warfare. A firehose of narrative attacks coming from every direction gives the targeted person, population, or organized community of people little time to process and evaluate the information as truthful because it's being flooded into the community in several directions. Let’s say a narrative accusing a group or person of something arises and is heavily promoted on social media platforms, but no one really knows if the information or accusation is true or false. This media saturation is cognitively disorienting and confusing, especially if the targeted opponents barely realize that an organized attack of character assignation or disinformation is actually what’s hitting them. Opportunities are then created for gaslighting and emotional manipulation of the community, which, when under attack in this way, undermines the person being targeted for finding a way to respond to or resist the accusations or information being saturated into the community via people that spread the disinformation by jumping on the bandwagon. This can destroy organizations, movements, and even a person’s reputation. It can get people arguing in circular debates over things that never even happened in the first place.

Distorted perception of reality

➝ Propaganda can be used to distort perceptions of reality.

➝ People are generally poor judges of true versus false information, and they do not necessarily remember that particular information that was actually verified later as being false.

➝ Information overload leads people to take shortcuts in determining the credibility and trustworthiness of messages.

➝ Familiar themes or messages can be appealing to people, even if they are false.

➝ Statements are more likely to be accepted if they are backed by evidence, even if that evidence is false.

➝ Using Peripheral cues to propagate the disinformation. This happens when a listener is persuaded into believing a lie because he or she notices that a message has many arguments within it but lacks the ability or motivation to think about each of these arguments individually. In other words, the various arguments are purposefully conflated into a single message, much like a mash-up of cliff notes, and when combined with an appearance of objectivity, this tactic can increase the perceived credibility of spreading propaganda and disinformation.

Essentially, what this means is we have to use common sense and critical thinking to see if the information passes our BS meter, and if we stop long enough to get quiet and then deeply feel into the information, many times we can get many intuitive impressions about it that help us discern if this is a weaponized narrative or manipulation-deception signature.

Weaponizing Narratives are used to destroy communities and trust between people; they are used to create conflict, controversy, and divide and conquer scenarios that break apart the organization's or community's goals for unity and working together for a common purpose.

Weaponized narratives can also be half-truths or outright lies that provide the illusion of emotional certainty at the expense of rational comprehension and critical thinking.The emotionally satisfying decision to accept a weaponized narrative is to believe and have faith in partial truths or lies, which prevents the opening of intelligent debates and discussions. Thus, it inoculates cultures, institutions, and individuals against counterarguments and inconvenient facts. If we don’t want to look at the truth because it's unpleasant, we let people get away with murder because it's more convenient to us. Then we are complicit in feeding the monster; we’re helping to co-create the ego monsters in the New Age, Ascension, and Disclosure movements. Therefore, the truth can be overwhelmed by constantly repeated statements that represent falsehoods, and soon the truth has been replaced with lies and no one even notices.

Keep this in mind as we continue to understand the infiltration and hijacking of the general narrative, because, as I’ve just explained, this is the major component of the psychological warfare used to weaponize the New Age, Ascension, and Disclosure communities. It is up to us to actually see and understand how they are accomplishing this infiltration so that we can refuse to be controlled by it. As conscious and spiritual people, we should make a commitment to truth and truth-telling and not fall into deception narratives by jumping on the bandwagon of consensus and controlled opposition. Be the person who sees it as it is happening and refuses to participate in it. Many times, weaponized narratives are being directed by paid online trolls that are designed to ensnare groups in circular debates. They do not want to find a solution to the problem that is outside of their own end result agendas, in which they spin the narrative in the direction they want the public to self-enforce.

Circular Debate

an argument that goes nowhere. Though a person believes he or she is arguing a point, the argument does not progress because the individual has a fixed and immovable belief that is considered a fact, and this is the core point of the argument, which in their belief system is actually not debatable. The negative ego has a tendency to exhibit mental rigidity, focusing on polarizing belief systems on right and wrong, black and white, resulting in splitting behaviours that compartmentalize thinking into circular reasoning and linear reasoning.
