How to Deprogram Yourself

The context for this post is advice tailored to people living under late-stage Fiat rot.

If you’re not currently living under late-stage Fiat rot, for example, you’re Venusian or Martian, you can safely ignore this video. But the bad news, at least for the current inhabitants of Earth, is:

  • You’re the product of a really fake, unhealthy, and stupid culture.

  • Your mind is the victim of years of government education and endless coordinated government-corporate media psyop’s.

  • Your body is probably the victim of Fiat food and medical malpractice.

  • Your identity is the victim of Fiat culture, and you’ve grown up trusting institutions that you may now realize should no longer be trusted.

Now, you can pretend it’s otherwise, but at some point, it’s probably a good idea to begin to face reality like an adult. So, the question is, how can you escape from this Fiat Matrix?

Here’s a non-exhaustive list, but first, be forewarned that this video will trigger some of you, maybe many of you.

Possible signs that you may be experiencing cognitive dissonance

  • You call me “buddy” and leave a condescending comment.

  • Extreme anger followed by a quick unsubscribe.

  • Accusing me of being a shill for either Biden or Trump or someone else.

  • Telling me I should stick to economics and Bitcoin since those are my areas of expertise.

… However, I’m not really qualified to talk about Bitcoin and economics either. 

I’m an English major, so if you are a devout credentialist who needs to see University degrees before someone’s allowed to talk about something. I’m really only qualified to talk about Anglo-American literary modernism and poststructuralism, which we could talk about at some point.

So, let’s go through a series of lessons here that may or may not help you deprogram yourself.

Lesson #1: Understand that incentives drive everything. Not truth, not science, not compassion for the people. I think it was Munger who said, “Show me the incentives, and I’ll show you the outcome.”

Here’s an example: An incentive program where if you get 75% of Anthem members to do something, you get a $125 bonus per vaccinated member. 

Many of you are probably not aware that this is behind a lot of what we have seen over the past few years. It may also explain certain surgeries which are extremely expensive, $100,000 to $150,000. I’ve heard estimates of up to a million.

Anthem

This may explain some why people in the medical establishment may be behind movements like this. It’s also quite enlightening to consider the incentives when you realize all these corporate sponsors behind the American Diabetes Association, the American Cancer Society, the American Heart Association, etc. 

These don’t look like the kind of sponsors you would want if you’re trying to help people’s health.

Lesson #2: Don’t be mesmerized by white lab coats, suits, or other trappings of authority.

This is very easy to see when we look at past times, but it’s a little bit more difficult to see when it’s present. If we look at the past, we can see how ridiculous this medical advice was.

  • “As your dentist, I would recommend a certain kind of cigarette. Not one single case of throat irritation due to smoking Camels.”

The guy in the white lab coat, another guy in the white lab coat, said, “More doctors smoke Camels than any other cigarette.”

These were clearly people who understood how the human body worked. "Just sort of appeared that six feet is going to be the distance.”

Sometimes it’s a little more difficult to see it when it occurs contemporaneously. 

Lesson #3: Nine out of ten dentists agree that Crest or Colgate or whatever it was is the best toothpaste. 97% of publishing climate scientists agree that humans are causing global warming and climate change.

And 97% of priests agree that child sacrifice is necessary for a good harvest.

  • “What makes you think you know better? What should we do with your child? You’re not even a priest, so you should stop being selfish and hand over your kid. Nobody enjoys child sacrifice, but it’s important to be pragmatic. Until we can transition to fully renewable child technology, we have to sacrifice your child. So you should stop being an extremist and hand over your child.”

Eye roll. “So you’re saying all the priests are wrong, or they’re all part of some evil grand conspiracy?”

Smirk. “And you, just another peasant, are the only one who knows what should be done with your child?”

Lesson #4: Most government officials are clueless muppets. 

We have Bernanke saying that the subprime contagion is contained. We have Janet Yellen saying in 2017 that we would never see a new financial crisis in our lifetimes. We saw one just three years later.

And then we have this muppet, Jared Bernstein, who is the chair of the Council of Economic Advisors under the Biden Administration and can’t seem to figure out basic economics about how they do money printing. 

Just to clarify, this is definitely not a deep fake. This is a real clip, and this is someone who’s advising your president on economic policy today.

Lesson #5: There are very few awake adult Homo sapiens in the world. Very, very few. Most people are this new species that’s been created by modern governments called the sheeple, the ultimate government creation.

Lesson #6: The stated official reason is never the real reason. We have Colin Powell talking about WMDs in Iraq, which were never found.

Though these WMDs were indeed found by the U.S. Army.

Lesson #7: When the government tells you that something will last two weeks, it will actually last for many years instead. We had the Iraq War, “Mission Accomplished,” about 15 years before it was actually accomplished. 

And with lockdowns, “Two weeks to flatten the curve,” three months later, 2023, etc.

Lesson #8: The global economy is completely rotten from the foundation up. Fiat money is a gigantic scam. It’s printed up by central banksters for free and used to fund the government while you have to sit trapped in a cubicle to earn it. Instead, they can just print it up for free.

To add insult to injury, you are taxed when you earn, spend, and breathe. And when you stop breathing and die, you are taxed one final time. 

How to deprogram yourself

In summary:

  • Always pay attention to the incentives.

  • Never take financial advice from poor people.

  • Never take medical or nutritional advice from unhealthy people.

  • Stop listening to the “experts.”

    • Most of them have no idea what they’re talking about and just represent a very narrow sliver of consensus that exists at the present moment, that may not have ever existed before or after.

  • Stop listening to the experts.

  • Stop following “the news.”

  • Learn to actually think for yourself instead of just repeating something that you read online this morning.

It’s a really good idea to stop scrolling. Read more things that were written 50, 100, 150 years ago, or even a thousand years ago. You can learn a lot from that. Also, hang out with more Bitcoiners and other insane conspiracy theorists who somehow manage to be right about almost everything.

This is the most important thing: If you’re an American, be sure to eat six to eleven servings of grains every day.

The government knows what’s best for you!

The one exception would be if you’re from the UK. You’re going to have to use this pyramid with the beans and toast and the figgy puddings.
