TRANSCRIPT:

Dr. Andrea Nazarenko, PhD: The spread of information and how they use the information to propagate fear and use that as a control mechanism. My background, as Frank so nicely articulated, is in community psychology and quantitative psychology, and very specifically, the area of expertise that I work in is something called implementation science. Implementation science is the scientific study of the methods that we use to bring good ideas to action. It's not enough to just have a good idea. It takes a lot to actually create change and have an impact in the real world. And so, we could take that same idea of a good idea and use it for the concept of a bad idea, or for how most of us would describe the pandemic. And the question no longer becomes we know what they did to us. We know the actions they took. They we know what has happened in the implications that they've had on society. But if we zoom out, we could begin to say, so how did they accomplish it? Could we look back and understand the mechanisms and the tactics that they used to drive this message home, to get millions of people around the world, to take untested vaccines to social distance, to harm our children, and to create a societal impact that they did.

And so that is the basis of the presentation of going to overview today, and certainly one of the main mechanisms that they used for control, and they have been using for control. And they will continue to use for control, is that of fear. Uh, a fearful society is just like a fearful individual. An individual who is in a state of fear, does not have proper decision-making capacities, does not have self-efficacy, has learned helplessness, and so on and so forth. It is a controllable individual. An animal that's in fear is more controllable than not. And the same is true at a societal level. Fear embedded in societal systems weakens the fabric of collective resilience. When they create fear, they create the context through which they are able to control. And this idea of using fear as a mechanism of societal control has been the topic of study in public health since World War two, and even beforehand. I mean, we have our ancient philosophers talking about fear as a mechanism for control, and they have moved this scientific study of fear for societal control forward, ethically and unethically throughout history, to the point where we do indeed have propaganda techniques that are well articulated, well described, a recipe, if you will, on how to use fear to control us. Uh, we have a scientific study within COVID-19 about how to use fear to maximize and optimize compliance.

This looks very similar to that test anxiety. If you're familiar with the testing anxiety performance, the bell-shaped curve looks very similar. Those animals—and it was like too much sadness, and it inhibited action to sadness—you didn't do anything. But if you hit that sweet spot of sadness, you want to donate to the Humane Society. If you're following the PSA that I'm referring to. If you study, if you have this much test anxiety, you're not going to perform well, too much. You're going to be hindered in your performance. But that sweet spot, and they did the same sort of thing in COVID-19. They looked at how much fear they could push out to create this optimal zone where there was the highest level of vaccine compliance, the most degree of masking, social distancing, so on and so forth. They manipulated our behavior through our emotional response, using fear as a primal and basic emotion that is easily manipulated. And you could see here that they even looked at different situations of spread and how they described the virus to map onto our fear. This is a sophisticated approach they took to creating the type of behavior compliance that they wanted to see. And so, we know that they did this. This is not surprising. We know that fear has been the primary source, but how they were able to actually successfully infiltrate fear throughout the fabric of society on a global scale is one of sophistication and worth noting, because we know we all know better than anyone else that just putting a message out there is not enough to change the attitudes, beliefs, or perceptions of the masses.

It takes more than just screaming louder or having a media source say it. How exactly did the globalists in rapid speed create an environment where people were not afraid, didn't even know COVID-19 existed, and then were able to be so afraid that they rolled up their sleeves and allowed an untested drug to be injected into their bodies? The basic answer comes down to a very classic framework within the developmental psychology and public health literature from Bronfenbrenner, originally put out back in 1979. And this is a very classic and well-known understanding of how human behavior is shaped by our environment. The gray circle in the center represents the individual. Typically, when we think about fear, we think about things like your genetic predisposition, your sex, your age, your health status, neurobiology, and temperament. These are all things that come into whether or not someone is prone to anxiety, panic and fear. But what we also know is that that individual is embedded within concentric circles, which each represents the systems of influence.

The closest system towards the person in that lighter blue color is termed “the microsystem.” And this is the system that our movement has focused on most frequently. These are the people closest to the individual who have a direct influence on someone's behavior. We've intervened with the parents. We've woken the mama bears up. We've woken the warrior fathers up. We've intervened in schools. We've taken over school boards. We've worked towards teachers and wokeness. Right. We are intervening at the provider level, the health care level, trying to wake doctors up. This has been the focus of our movement in trying to push along our trajectory of creating a healthier society. The metro system I'm going to skip for depth and time. The exosystem is the system that our government works most strongly upon are the position within our government. I should say this is the system-level change. If they didn't just come out and go on the news, although mass media is part of it. The mass media was out there talking about the issues propagating fear. But then they also coordinated and aligned workplace policies. You can't work. You won't have financial resources if you do not comply. That is a very fear-based campaign, just as loud as mainstream media screaming about deaths. They worked within governmental systems and economic systems. Your small business will close if you do not comply. They worked at this exosystem level in order to create very authentic, real fear that affects the daily functioning of an individual's life, not just the fear of what may happen, but underscoring the fabric of our society and the way in which we live.

They threatened the way in which we live by aligning the fear of COVID with these very basic fundamental systems. And then you zoom out one more level and you look at the macro system, and this is how culture plays a role. They created technology to underscore what we're doing. They passed laws and social policy. And we even saw things just like in the Olympic opening ceremonies the other day starts [with] attacks of religious and philosophical beliefs to really underscore and attack the attitudes, perceptions, and beliefs of the general populace. Now, this all sounds good and fine and dandy, but where do the globalists play a role? Since that is the focus of today's discussion. And I argue that we are in uncharted territory because as we begin to look at systems, never before have we had a system where the globalists are in direct lines of influence over our outermost macro level system. We now have a group of individuals who have the power to influence, directly and indirectly, economic ideology, religious and philosophical beliefs, our environment, our laws, our culture, our technology and our social policy. And this is unchartered and very dangerous territory.
