Many have assessed why people are asleep: mass psychosis as a result of Covid scare, trust in government, lack of interest… It’s okay to understand the past, but I wonder what we could do now. Which efficient processes might wake members of the public up?
As mentioned above, it would seem that many even refuse to think about it. At some point, we’re hitting a wall.
Until now I’ve been posting facts, analyses, videos. ‘Logical’ arguments don't work with everyone as they imply pausing and pondering over those facts.
And I can see that any new study, any new vaccine-induced death or side effect is met with genuine indifference.
Maybe we're using the wrong strategy here?
How could we hack that? Instead of making statements in our tweets, flyers or discussions, we could turn it around so as to access their brains.
For instance, by asking questions since statements are generally dismissed out of hand whenever they don't match belief systems.
Do you remember all the surveys in mainstream media in 2021 such as “Should we lock down again?” or “Should we introduce vaccine passport mandates?” All these questions were actually nudges—suggestions to gain acceptance of what's coming next.
Here we could use a similar process with direct questions to counter propaganda:
“Do Covid vaccines make us sick?”
“Did mainstream media lie about Covid treatments?”
The simple fact of seeing a question triggers thinking. Of course, we need to make them visible in the street, in the subway, on stickers or social media. Even if members of the public don't see them at first. The idea is to repeat these questions. What we're aiming at is to reactivate some kind of cognitive process.
I am not a psychotherapist, but if we are to get people out of mass psychosis, it may be worth exploring. I'm open to suggestions.
As promised, I have the honour and pleasure to proudly present the project
I've been working so hard to produce over the last few weeks.
This short documentary above is my vision and the condensed version of a
recent interview with Rudy, a young French author who lives in Quebec and has
just published his first novel on Amazon
(available both in paperback and Kindle formats in French language only).
A fast-paced fantasy thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat
throughout its 450+ pages.
Below is the translated transcript of the above documentary which may be
easier to read than the embedded English subtitles (which have been
made by me and not automatically produced by an algorithm).
However, the full transcript of the captivating one-hour conversation I had
with the author will only be available (in several instalments) on the main
blog in French as it was really more work than I could handle.
This is my first documentary. The result of countless hours of work and
research. Thank you for your forbearance and your time watching it.
For the record, one month ago I had no idea I would have this captivating
conversation with Rudy or even that I would make this video. Let alone how or
with what. The idea simply dawned on me, gently, inspired by my heart rather
than aspired by my mind.
I followed through because it triggered so much joy and excitement within, I
knew I would be guided through all the steps. This was the case indeed, down
to the smallest detail. I only provided the necessary efforts and patience as
I had to learn on the job.
To my credit, even after so many years and fundamentally different technical
means, I was still able to apply quite naturally the little bit about film
production I was taught on my audiovisual training at college before
quitting—as, until very recently, I had never believed strongly in
myself and in my dreams enough to fulfil them. Therefore, this
documentary was kind of getting my back on the past—a personal challenge, or
the materialisation of something I had always wanted to do for so long. Will I
keep the momentum? I don't know. I'll go where my inner joy carries me and no
longer where the fears and limitations of others will dictate me to.
Many thanks to Rudy for his huge concern, his great availability, his precious
collaboration on this project, and mostly for the inspired burst of creativity
he's revived in me.
“Slumped on the sofa, 27-year old Yvan had no idea that within less than a
year, he would be dead... twice. “
This is the story of Gauthier
and Yvan, two 30-something teenage friends, involuntary involved in a
mysterious adventure at the fringe of reality. After a chance encounter with
a friendly granny in a lift, Yvan's life gradually takes a bizarre,
disturbing—even downright absurd turn. A coin that always flips on the right
side; a charge for the murder of a world-famous figure in baffling
circumstances; or this blue annoying little furry creature who can speak,
smoke, and appears to be following Yvan's every single move. For Yvan,
Reality clearly doesn't make sense anymore.
First Novel
It's the first time I bring a literary project to completion!
I
found I had a taste for writing when I was 14. I fell in love with a girl
called Hélène. She was older than me. Nothing ever happened between us, but we
kept in touch for years. Even now we still exchange occasional emails.
So
we wrote to each other for some time – I mean traditional letters with stamps
and envelopes and stuff. And there you have a young teenage Rudy in love...
I
actually found these letters allowed me to express things I could not just
express with my phone or even speak out loud. And in fact, I started
developing a taste for the right words.
So how did it happen? A
taste for using the right words, the letters I wrote which enabled me to
develop my own style – but actually, all this doesn't write a story. And it
annoyed me. Because there was something missing.
And so circa 2017,
I decided to enrol on a writing class. I typed “writing class for adults” and
I stumbled upon this lady called Myriam who lectured us. She's a writer
herself and she gave us homework, notably exercises on characters. And I
realised that was what I was missing.
Rather than attempting to
write a story, invent characters and let them come to life, let them move
inside the story.
Stephen King
I once read an interview with Stephen King, who is one of my literary
references. He says he actually invents his characters, and then lets them
come to life...
And that's a bit how I felt. I'm not comparing,
okay because Stephen King… well. But he lets his characters come to life. He
doesn't know what's going to happen to them until he actually writes it.
Philosophical Interlude
“The other day, I got a phone call from my doctor. He left a message on my
answering machine saying: 'I have received your test results, everything's
fine!' Thereupon, I started to imagine the message I could have got instead.
'Morderai, I need you to call back my office as soon as possible. I would
like to discuss your test results with you'. Just imagine the joy I felt!
What better news in the world than 'I have received your test results,
everything's fine!' Well, my brother, at times like these, I need to pray
just to say thank you. For the gratitude you express stands like a beacon in
the night.”
When I started writing my story, I had this scene where Yvan, the main
character has a conversation with his brother, who happens to be a religious
Jew, and they have a discussion. It's a bit like an interlude in the story, a
reflective interlude...
It was inspired by 1984. At some point,
Winston, the hero, is given a book. It's a book about politics. And we get
50-80 pages describing the contents of the book. So we get a pause in the
story, a pause in the action, a pause in the narrative to create this
interlude of political explanation, which I found was very good, and we
understand a lot of things.
So I wanted to do something similar. It
was the idea I had when I started the book.
“When you forget to say thank you, you eventually fail to realise you're the
happiest man in the world... That's where the second part of the plan
begins: you start comparing.” “Comparing?” “Yes, you compare. Your
neighbour's house which is nicer than yours, your sister's kids who are
better-mannered, the waitress at the restaurant who has finer legs than your
wife, except that unlike your wife, she didn't give you two beautiful kids.
And so, you compare. Goyim have great sayings to illustrate that. One says,
'The grass is always greener on the other side'. And another one says: 'Love
ends where comparison begins'.“
Writing Process
Before I could write the original scene I had in mind, I had 235 pages to
write. That's literally two years of work. The first lesson I learnt from this
three-year writing process is that you need a great deal of patience.
If
you start writing what you want like I used to do, for me, it didn't work. I
tried designing a plan, it didn't really work! I read theoretical books on
writing, drawing diagrams... I picked up bits and pieces and kept the
interesting ones.
So there's certain elements of structure in the
pace of the story. At some point, it goes down, then up again until it reaches
the final climax. Though this book has no end. The last three words are: “End
of volume one”.
So no, I didn't really follow a script. I had this
scene I wanted to write in mind. I had my characters. There was Yvan, who is
the hero of the book, and Ginette, an old lady he meets in the lift by pure
chance. And from then on, increasingly bizarre things keep occurring in Yvan's
life and the life of his close friends.
So I had these two
characters, I would write a scene, then once it was written... I would write
approximately once a week. I had a couple of free hours on Thursday evenings
when I would take my laptop to the library and write a dozen or more pages.
Thereupon, during the whole week in between Thursdays, it was running in the
background.
What happens in the next scene? In the next 20 pages of
the book?
It's interesting for sometimes, there are scenes which
are really scary. I mean with some scenes, you get stuck for weeks before
actually writing them because it really scares you. You don't know how to
write it or how to tackle it. You're sitting in front of your computer, unable
to type the first word. Then, ultimately, you type the first word. It starts
flowing and the scene eventually writes itself.
Honestly, I had no
idea that kind of things would happen, and was part of the writing process.
The Flatmates
The first chapter introduces the main characters. They're two flatmates. They
don't have very meaningful lives. They play video games, smoke weed and eat
pizza. But they are mates and they're happy this way. They are nice guys. They
are in their thirties, enjoying their money and everything's fine.
Then
we get to the next scene and it's a totally different atmosphere. There's an
old man. We don't know who he is. We can see that he's someone wealthy,
mystical, who reads weird books. And that he's anxious. He's expecting a
visitor. The visitor finally arrives. We know nothing about him except his
name: Siegfried. And the old man, Jebediah, who is an important character in
the book, gives him a tooth. We read that it is his own tooth which he's
extracted himself with a hand tool.
So with that, I vaguely knew
where I was heading to. Otherwise most of the clues I dropped were more
let's-type-and-see-how-it-goes-further-on-in-the-story.
And
frankly, sometimes you go back in time and you find you can't make anything
converge, so you alter the past a bit. Thus it's non-linear in
the sense that I write linearly and then go back to what I initially wrote to
fix it and ensure the future matches the past.
Another Montreal
So the story is set in Montreal where I started writing the book (now I live
in a village, in the woods, in Quebec), but it's actually MY version of
Montreal.
Incidentally, the geography is quite strange as in fact,
there aren't any hills in Montreal. I deliberately wanted to show this
somewhat bizarre structure so that those who know the place get a bit
confused.
If you look very closely, there are strange things on the
timeline too. Sometimes you go to some place, you're in the middle of winter
and you find yourself in this sort of spring botany.
I also wanted
to add this surrealistic rather unrealistic touch so that you get immersed
into some kind of mysterious atmosphere to disconnect from the mundane
reality.
I also discovered that it's hard to construct a timeline
in a book. For the next instalment, I shall establish a timeline right away
featuring the various events and where they occur. For if you don't do that,
you can get lost and it can get very tricky.
Clearly, the most
difficult part in writing this book was the correcting stage, NOT the writing
process. Once you have written the whole book, correcting inconsistencies and
even spelling mistakes... And yet, I had someone to help me.
He always uses the same structure. You get a normal situation
with normal people and all of a sudden, something unusual occurs that breaks
the sense of normalcy. It's not an alien invasion nor anything like that,
rather something very odd happening and the oddity builds up to a crescendo in
the characters' lives.
This is the kind of pace I wanted to create
in the book, featuring themes I'm attached to such as...no spoiler here, so
let's say some political or philosophical themes.
Subliminal Influences
Clearly Terry Pratchett
and Neil Gaiman
may also be unconscious influences, though less than Hakami or Stephen King.
Now that you point it out… yes, definitely.
And yes, the pace of
Dan Brown's books... I've tried to write a page-turner, that is a book you can't put
down. Clearly, I've tried to do that.
MK-Ultra
“Actually, now that you mention it,” said Wendy, “I think I saw a
documentary on this. It's a Mind Kontrol programme–to control minds–hence
the 'MK' in MK-Ultra, and force people to do all kinds of things they would
not or might not even be able to do in other circumstances.” Lana
nodded in agreement. “I'm impressed.” “Well,” admitted Wendy,
blushing, ”I've always had an interest in that kind of morbid stuff.” “Sound
like a big conspiracy theory! Right between Flat Earth, dinosaurs, and the
Reptilians of the Hollow Moon!” Wendy stared at him. She couldn't help
replying: “Dinosaurs, Yvan? Really?” Yvan ignored the question.
Lana went on. “As mentioned by Jebediah, it's very official. There has
been lawsuits and millions awarded in compensation to victims. Most of them
orphans, homeless, mentally disabled, children in public care. And Bill
Clinton really made a statement about that. These programmes, however, have
been officially terminated.” “Okay, but not unofficially?” “Let's
say the CIA arranged to eliminate most of the evidence, medical records and
test reports. But it's no secret that this kind of things continue today in
various circles including some very... elitist groups.” “Such as?” “Fashion,
movies, music, show business, sports.” “Hold on, what sort of
experiments are we talking about?” asked Yvan, looking rather confused. “Mental
experimentation,” Lana pursued. "Experiments on corporal dissociation,
psychic powers, fragmentation of personality, mind programming.” “Mind
programming?” “Mind programming, yes. A perfectly normal person who has
been programmed has no memory of having been programmed. They live a normal
life with normal interactions and the ordinary problems of ordinary people.
However, when they get "triggered", they may suddenly turn into an assassin
who will murder the President or something like that. Rumours have it that
John Lennon would have been murdered by someone like that.” “What do
you mean by 'when they get triggered'?” asked Yvan. “Just like in the
movies? You say a key phrase or read a specific poem and there you go?” “Just
like in Zoolander,” Wendy added. “Yes, that's it,” Lana nodded at the
mention of this classic movie of the early 2000's. “Yes, but why
celebrities and athletes?” “When you control minds, you can condition
them to achieve various things. The possibilities are endless. Sex is often
one of the first things that comes to mind.”
I'm introducing some conspiracy theories and there's one in particular which
is still rather prevalent in Montreal because it partly originated in there.
It's what's called Project MK-Ultra, a mind control programme using methods
quite uncool to describe. I've tried to leave out the dirtiest and most sordid
aspects, though.
I wanted this book to address this particular
issue. There's lots to say about MK-Ultra – lots of disturbing things. Those
who wish to dig further may do so, but I wanted to say that such things do
exist and I've tried to provide research evidence, notably one video I had
sent you where you can see quite troubling stuff that leads one to question
afterwards.
So if you feel like digging further, you just do it.
I'm talking a lot about conspiracies in my life, the idea was NOT to write a
political book to point people in a particular political direction. The choice
is theirs. If you wish to take it as nothing more than a fantasy book, I'm
perfectly okay with that.
Clearly, MK-Ultra is not a conspiracy
theory, but it actually is in the sense that it hasn't made it yet to the
brain of Mr. Normal watching mainstream news. Not only they don't know about
it, but even if you inform them, even if you show them evidence, their
response will be one of rejection.
“No, it doesn't match my view of
reality, therefore it's a conspiracy theory; therefore only fools talk about
it; and so I don't care about this issue. I'm staying in my confort zone, in
my mainstream-cocooned view.”
I leave it up to people if they've
never heard of that. I mentioned that Bill Clinton talked about it at some
point. He made a statement about it when he was president, which, in my
opinion, is a strong argument – a sitting US president talking about it and
making public apologies. Then if you don't wish to dig further...
But
yes, Reality versus the fake reality we are presented with as Truth is
certainly central to my daily concerns. Definitely more so over the last two
and a half years.
“These mind control programmes happen to be the 'medical' continuation under
'scientific' supervision of secrets rituals practised for centuries and
probably millennia.” “Secret rituals?” “Yes, the principle is
essentially the same. The brain has a sort of emergency disconnect system.
If you push someone's boundaries far enough, this system goes off and the
brain then enters in a dissociative state to escape a reality which is too
extreme. During the dissociative phase, the mind becomes very malleable.
Thus anyone proficient in the art of mind programming–a programmer–may take
advantage of this dissociative state and use it for their own purposes.” “Okay,
but hold on. What do you mean by 'if you push someone's boundaries far
enough'?” “Oh, that's the really uncool part. Essentially, it consists
of causing as much trauma as possible to the subject. Abuse, humiliation,
rape, torture… anything goes.” “I get the picture,” said Yvan who,
under the guise of feigned toughness, actually seemed to have trouble coping
with the information. “What's the point of doing all this? What's the
purpose?” “Well, you can create multiple personalities that you may use
to your advantage. For instance, some great sporting champions have admitted
having one of their personas, let's call it an alter, who is the athlete.
It's that alter who suffers, sweats, bleeds and improves their performance
again and again until it's perfect. This persona has been created with the
appropriate mindset, this incredible desire to win and crush everything on
their path. Such psychological construct would be highly dysfunctional in
society, but it doesn't matter because, in society, it's another alter who
is in control; and at work, another; and in the bedroom, another again. I
can tell you don't believe me, so take a close look at these videos.” And
she showed them interviews on YouTube of very famous athletes or actors who
personally admitted having multiple personalities and that the person in
front of the camera was not the same that the one in situation. She showed
them a video of this great tennis champion who, right in the middle of a
tournament, in the glare of the world's media, cannot remember how to use a
racket and literally doesn't know how to play tennis anymore. The game was
cancelled and the player had to withdraw.
