I will highlight one riff...
It is has not proved necessary to waterboard the secrets out of us. Or to search the secret mark with witches pricker, stress position, sleep deprivation. Such theatre is the necessary ritual performance of power, not the retrieval of raw data. Abrogate are the masonic threats of sawing open brain pans and exposing us to the scorching sun. The closed books are scanned and read by pricks on the internet. The secret fled without grip or word, charter or garter being exchanged. The images we revere are endlessly shared until the meaning and holy awe is as washed from them. The rites we celebrate are uploaded and stumbled through by youtube goons. We have pilfered, scanned and torrented the mysteries – creating not a leap in consciousness, but a culture of entitlement.
It was MKULTRA, the Esalen and New Age black-op, Star Gate, First Earth Battalion and their ilk who field stripped and double-blind tested our occult tech. They didn’t come knocking on our doors, we handed it over with our sloppy protocols and desire for kudos. The fraternal societies that manifestly work are Skull and Bones, Bohemian Grove, Propaganda Due (P.2), et al; not the magical post-war offcuts of Wicca, OTO or IOT. While we squabble, they rule. In the game of thrones, we are manifestly absent, replaced by ad execs and algorithms, drones and cointelpro. We need to take secrecy back, and we need to remember what the secret is.
I am assuming that some of you know the secret?
