Zombies of the Algorithm: A Soul in Prison
"First, they came for the unvaccinated..."
The weekend after Thanksgiving, attorney Kelly Conlon and her daughter came to New York City as part of a girl scout field trip. They planned to see the Christmas Spectacular show at the Radio City Music Hall, owned by MSG Entertainment. They all had purchased tickets. However, Kelly was singled out and not allowed to see the show despite holding a ticket.
Kelly was identified by the facial recognition software as an attorney working for a firm that was litigating against another venue also owned by MSG Entertainment. She was stopped by the security and asked to leave, which she did—while the entire crew, the kids and the other moms, went in and “enjoyed the show.”
“First, they came for the unvaccinated, and now…” We’ll talk about that in a second—but first, can you imagine how powerful it would have been if their entire girl scout crew—the kids and the moms and everyone—refused to go in and made a big deal out of their refusal?
How powerful it would have been if, instead of “checking” a passive and trivial consumerist activity—“spectacular” as it may be—they practiced camaraderie, rebelled against abuse, and spent their time together elsewhere, exploring reality, bonding, and supporting each other? Wouldn’t it have been the most brilliant, brave, educational girl scout activity ever—way better than seeing a generic show? And wouldn’t it have been useful to use the opportunity to teach the girls how not to bend over in the face of bullying?
But they left Kelly outside and went in. They didn’t rebel because they didn’t know how. They didn’t rebel because they were caught up in the moment and had their minds on the “program.” They didn’t rebel because for years prior, they had been conditioned to comply as the path of the least resistance. They weren’t thinking with their souls. They were on autopilot. They were like wet cabbage leaves on the algorithm’s buttocks (a modified Russian saying), as opposed to free people.
And if you want to know how tyrants eat people, this is how. One by one, group by group, while others are watching, assuming they’ll be spared (but they are rarely spared).
Which brings us to the most important point:
It is not hard to fight fascism—but the trick is to actually fight it.
We, human beings, have the power to protect each other. We have the power to heal each other. We really have that power, and it’s not a small matter. But, see, in order for it to work, we have to use it!! It will only have an effect if we use it.
Hence, the favorite trick of any tyrant—a trick that tyrants have been using for thousands of years—is to scare as many people as possible away from their souls, to use both sticks and carrots and to drag the people so far away from their souls that the very thought of honoring their souls would make them anxious as a completely unfamiliar endeavor.
And this is how tyrants eat people. It is much harder to eat people who stick together and don’t betray each other.
And now about the unvaccinated.
(You can also read it on Organic Consumer Association’s website.)
See, in 2020 and after, the tyrants in high chairs spent billions of dollars to make people feel secure and protected under the bad magic of Fauci’s “science” —while making the same people feel very anxious around the “vermin”—anxious to the extent of celebrating the humiliation of the “unclean” human beings, on moral grounds.
And this, again, is how tyrants eat people.
It is my belief that the world is in such a disarray right now less so because of the tyrants—who are none the less horrible people doing horrible things—but because so many good people have forgotten how to act from their souls.
Really, all is needed to start a good chemical reaction is to decisively act from the soul, unfamiliar or scary as it may be. And just do it, and do it, and do it.
That is what we need to start doing more of— act from our souls, in the raw, with no reliance on talking points.
Do it, no matter how foolish it may feel to do it for the first time. Do it, no matter what the algorithm tells us.
We all have the power, our power is in respecting our own souls and in standing up for our right to be dignified and loving toward others. This is a long-term plan that requires courage and patience—and this is how we defeat abusers. For real.
If you are in the position to do so, I encourage you to become a paid subscriber or donate. I love you in any case, but it helps. Thank you from my heart for your support!
I read about that woman getting "disallowed" from coming into the show, but you put it into a new light! And OF COURSE they should have refused to go in without her -- who leaves a fellow man/woman behind? Instead, everybody's too afraid to be "embarrassed".
Great article!!!
Thanks for a great piece, Tessa!
Think of all the anti-bullying campaign funding that's been in school budgets, grants, supported by nonprofits dedicated to fight bullying over the past two-three decades. All of those resources and efforts teaching the next generation to stand up to bullies by joining together in solidarity with the victims of bullies, strength in numbers.
Then think about how many of those same anti-bullying campaign teachers, nonprofit leaders, trainers, students who have become the bullies or stood silently on the sidelines while government and the powerful bully the non-compliant, the disobedient, the vermin.
It was that easy to turn many of these same people who should have known better that they were siding with the bullies or enabling bullying just because the authorities told them they are justified bullying. Believing they are performing a virtuous act. A fascinating study of how strong the psychological manipulations are and how powerless against them that most people are.
I no longer hold the German people of the 1930's-1940's in special contempt. I no longer see ordinary Germans of that era as being uniquely evil. I no longer judge them harshly for their cruelty, the blind eye they turned to so much evil and hatred they witnessed, enabled, stepped over and around going about their lives. Sgt. Shultz's, "I see nothing. Nothing." Because I see the same exact people around me today, since 2020. The same people. Possessing the same weakness against psychological manipulations that they are powerless over that the Germans were. Even equipped with the knowledge of history, resources and training about bullying, in an allegedly constitutional republic that protects civil liberties, individual rights, even when a majority mob is demanding they be deprived of them. Same. People.
Manipulating people to do what you want them to do, entire populations is actually a science. It is The Science (TM) of the pandemic. Behavioral Science is the name its been given. It's the science of the efficacy of propaganda, symbolism, messaging, etc on changing perspectives of a target populations that result in a desired behavior change. There's actual plug-and-play behavioral science templates on how its done. With scientific precision, knowing nearly exact percentages that a particular lever pulled or button pushed will respond as desired. With different levers and buttons to sweep up the others.

It is The Science (TM) that informs authorities of what specific psychological manipulations that propaganda should contain. Like masks on faces acting as symbols that evoke a fear response. The Science (TM) informed by psychological studies that show seeing a masked face is processed by the brain in the same way seeing snakes are, the amygdala - fight, flight or freeze response. Fear amplification button. Symbols emblazoned across faces that evoke the desired behavior of scaring people apart. Follow The Science (TM).

It's the science of climate fear-caused food shortages, mental illness-induced genital mutilations, you name it. All of that which doesn't make sense happening around us that we're being told The Science has changed in whiplash fashion to justify absurdities our rational mind would never otherwise accept, like men in makeup and pigtails winning Olympic Gold in women's weightlifting are exercises in Behavioral Science, aka The Science (TM). It is the science of totalitarianism.

It is The Science (TM) of owning nothing and being happy eating bugs.

The past three years are evidence that most people don't stand a chance against this type of sophisticated nearly universal Behavioral Science campaign. But The Science (TM) has an Achilles heal: Sunlight. Exposure. Just as The Wizard was revealed to be a weak, pathetic man pushing levers and buttons on a scientific machine when Toto pulled the curtain back in Oz, those who have deployed The Science (TM) against free people are weak, pathetic men and women.
And the terms "backfire" and "blowback" in Behavioral Science are known hazards of abusive applications of The Science (TM). Cautioned against by practitioners pre-pandemic. Because once the target population comes to realize they've been subjected to abusive coercion and manipulation that's resulted in great loss and sacrifices they don't react very kindly. The known hazards of blowback, backfire to authorities include destabilization of government, an overthrow. The pitchforks come out.
Which is why the massive censorship and intimidation campaigns are being amped up. They say it's for national security. When in fact it's for the security of the weak, pathetic men and women who've been pushing the levers and buttons of the people they control resulting in great loss and misery. The censorship and intimidation campaigns are confessions of their guilt. And their fear of being caught by angry mobs with pitchforks pointed at them.
We already know how this ends: We win. But we don't know how much more loss and misery these weak, pathetic men and women will inflict upon us before we win. I do know that the faster we're able to wake up more people to get to that critical mass the less loss and misery lies ahead. Every night we put our head down we should ask ourselves how many people did we help wake up that day. And every morning we wake up we should inspire ourselves to be that sunlight that exposes The Science (TM) to as many people as we can in the course of our day. And we can draw upon the anti-bullying campaign materials, programs and training tools to apply to our circles we influence. They work. Showing solidarity with victims. Standing with them.
And above all we must give glory to God that he has given those of us already awake the gift of great discernment, making it our duty to be his light in this world to save mankind from the unholy deceivers who lurk in darkness.
