Many thanks to AM Wake Up for the invitation to appear on their morning show. I thought I would be on for the usual hour or so, but they kept me on for the entire three-hour show!Too much content to summarise here, but it was a fun long-form discussion around all things conspiracy-related! I mentioned that the authenticity of terrorist attacks has to be judged by consequent legislation. Four days after the interview, this came out. This is a public episode.

Happily, Graham and John enjoyed the first hour so much they wanted me to stay on for a second hour, which I was happy to do. In this part, we discuss:* why it is not hyperbolic or extensive to draw parallels between the political economy of 1930s Nazi Germany and that of the West since 2020 (notwithstanding discontinuities); * a very brief summary of Wall Street, the Nazis, and the Crimes of the Deep State and why it sounds the alarm regarding where things will lead if the global technocratic coup is not put down;* what will be the next major psy-op? Speculation on manufactured water shortages and a massive internet shut down; * the attack on internet freedom in Australia; * Wall Street funding for the rise of Hitler and the building and sustaining of the Nazi war machine;* fascism and totalitarianism as a response to the crisis of capitalism — including the Business Plot in the United States; * US imperialism, masked by propaganda about “democratization,” etc. ;* “9/11” and the millennium of fear marked by governance by emergency; * actors and organisations that were implicated in the “9/11” crime; * the Strategy of Tension, globalised through the “War on Terror”;* continuities between “9/11” and “Covid-19”;* the culpability of the mainstream media in producing the propaganda needed for the major psychological operations to work; * similarities between Nazi Germany and the present when it comes to media centralization and propaganda; * why I am sceptical of all “vaccines” (I meant to cite Humprhies and Bystrianik’s Dissolving Illusions); * what were the “Covid-19 vaccines” really?;* mitigation measures for what may be coming — but there are limits; * the limitations of online forms of community;* why I am worried about where this all leads if the global technocratic coup is not put down; * God;* the role of the Vatican in allying with Hitler and laundering Nazi gold; * my books; * identity politics as a distraction from class politics; and * the social media ban in Australia.

Many thanks to Hrvoje Morić for inviting me back onto Geopolitics and Empire. The focus of discussion for this interview was Wall Street, the Nazis, and the Crimes of the Deep State, which happily Hrvoje was able to quote at length. In this two-hour interview we discussed:* the origins of the book;* the key arguments in the book (including what it is not trying to argue); * the role of Wall Street in the rise of Hitler and the funding of the Nazi war machine;* the ruling class desire to replace liberal democracy with totalitarianism, dating back to the 1930s at least; * why terms such as “fascist” and “communist” are imprecise and unhelpful when trying to make sense of developments in the contemporary world; * George Kennan’s fascist tendencies and the birth of the US national security state;* NATO and Operation Gladio, the Strategy of Tension, and the “War on Terror”; * descendants of ex-Nazis in positions of power today;* false flag terrorism as governance paradigm and how to interpret it; * the transnational deep state and the emergence of a historically unprecedented global power structure; * why the rehabilitation of Hitler is a dangerous development that should be called out and opposed; * the analytical value in thinking in terms of transnational class relations; * why the “bipolar” image of the Cold War should be reevaluated; * the disturbing implications of the historical trajectory currently underway;* academia’s failure to address what is happening; * two methods for achieving world government: regionalization and digitization/interoperability; * the power of propaganda to generate constant distractions and “crises” so that the population does not see the technocratic control system coming into effect; * the New Age dimension to the NWO; * the “multipolaristas” within the alternative media and why their praise of Russia and China (2D chess) ignores the transnational class relations at play and the global technocracy being installed everywhere; * the recent tendency for “alt media” commentators to accept paid trips to Russia and China, ostensibly to “get beyond Western propaganda,” but ultimately producing what looks remarkably much like propaganda for those countries; * multipolarism as a Camp 2 narrative; the Pied Pipers are everywhere;* why resistance begins with you;* behind-the-scenes challenges of life in the alternative media;* the similarity between Camp1 and Camp 2 propaganda tactics.

I was delighted to be joined recently by Iain Davis to discuss his new book, The Technocratic Dark State. Trump, AI, and Digital Dictatorship.Iain had been kind enough to send me a review copy, and my immediate impression was this is a very important book that everyone should read. I was keen to hear more from Iain about it. Over the course of the hour, we discussed:* the pivotal importance of digital ID to the technocrats’ plans; * the cunning implementation of a “unified ledger” as the backbone of a centralised, interoperable global financial system;* tokenization, natural “assets,” and the “solution” to the global debt problem;* methods of deceiving the public about what is going on;* network states; * the “Dark Enlightenment” and the crazy neoreactionary thinking that Thiel, Musk, and others appear to endorse; and* possibilities for resistance. Iain is the author of numerous books and articles on foreign and domestic affairs. His work can be found at IainDavis.com and Iain also writes for OffGuardian and unlimitedhangout.com.

Many thanks to Paul Brennan for having me back on his Reality Check Radio show in New Zealand. The bio he used was from last year, when I was in my final days as a senior lecturer — please ignore that part. We managed to pack a lot into 45 minutes, including: * continuities between the Nazi past and the present via the formation of a transnational deep state after World War II;* the role of Wall Street in the rise of Hitler, the funding of the Nazi war machine, and the ability of the Nazis to fight World War II;* the Ukrainian digital state, the Global Government Technology Centre, and the rise of digital transformation agencies; * the “Agentic state” and its double meaning relating to the removal of human agency and responsibility; * the unresponsiveness of governments to public opinion on key issues such as digital ID; * the engineering of a loss of public trust in democratic institutions so that AI and technocracy will be welcomed by the public; * the potentially imminent rollout of digital currencies and its implications;* a cetnralised, globally “interoperable” financial system; * the intentionally addictive nature of “smart” devices; * the dangers of chatbots; * why the Agentic State spells the end of liberal democracy;* Trump’s role in accelerating the installation of technocracy in the United States;* the harvesting of medical data and its potential misuse; * who “they” are;* governments’ prioritisation of the agendas of the transnational deep state over the will of the people;* the necessity for mass non-compliance with all aspects of technocracy; and* the psychopathic evil that has been unleashed in the war against humanity.

In response to feedback from subscribers, I have recorded an audio version of my chapter on Applied Behavioural Psychology, which will appear in Volume 2 of “Covid-19,” Psychological Operations, and the War for Technocracy. I have broken it down into five parts, corresponding to the five written parts that were published in the spring. I am only notifying subscribers by email about Part 1 (so as not to clog up your inbox), but all five parts will be available on my Substack, as well as on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Pocket Casts. Hopefully, this should allow the ideas contained within the Applied Behavioural Psychology chapter to reach a wider audience. This is a public episode.

AbstractTechnocracy has always had the domination of man in mind, even from its inception at Columbia University in 1932. As technology advanced, it has been commandeered at every turn to support its stated purposes of “the science of engineering,” abolishment of private property, scientific dictatorship, and sequestration of all resources, among others.For the first time in history, Technocracy has been wrapped in a political ideology and a religious system, and it now seeks to escape the boundaries of the United States. In other words, the new and expanded goal of Technocracy is to “build empire” throughout the world, using AI and cryptocurrency/blockchain as weapons of mass subjugation.This presentation will examine the first six months of the Trump Administration to assess how this plan is being implemented and to consider what lies ahead.Summary by Courtenay TurnerPatrick Wood, a foundational scholar in the study of technocracy, initiated the symposium with a systematic analysis of technocracy’s historical development and contemporary manifestations. Drawing upon his publications, such as The Evil Twins of Technocracy and Transhumanism (with a forthcoming volume in November 2025), Wood argued that technocracy has consistently pursued the domination of human agency through technological means. He posited that this ideology, now integrated with political and religious frameworks, employs artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies as instruments for global subjugation, with recent U.S. policy developments serving as a primary case study.Wood defined technocracy per the 1937 Technocrat magazine as the “science of social engineering,” entailing the scientific management of societal mechanisms for the production and distribution of goods and services. This framework eliminates political systems, financial structures, and exploitative practices, replacing them with a distribution certificate allocated from birth to death. The seven requirements outlined in the 1930s Technocracy Study Course—including continuous inventories of production and consumption, and detailed registration of individual behaviors—remain unaltered, now facilitated by digital infrastructures.Central to Wood’s analysis were the key actors, whom he termed “arch technocrats,” including Elon Musk (architect of the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE), Peter Thiel (founder of Palantir and mentor to JD Vance), David Sacks (appointed as AI and cryptocurrency advisor), Mark Andreessen, Michael Kratsios (Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, formerly of Scale AI), Howard Lutnick (Secretary of Commerce), and Larry Ellison (Oracle co-founder). Their aggregate net worth exceeds $1.2 trillion, and their actions, influenced by the “Dark Enlightenment” philosophy, reflect a strategic erosion of populist movements to advance technocratic objectives.Wood detailed the data aggregation strategy via DOGE, established in 2024 by Musk, Lutnick, and Trump. Far from enhancing efficiency, DOGE functioned as a mechanism to consolidate federal data, deploying 109 teams to extract information from agencies. Non-compliance resulted in terminations under the “Replace All Government Employees” doctrine. The objective was to integrate healthcare, diagnostic, financial, genomic, and geospatial data into unified AI platforms, as articulated by Ellison in a cited video: a single database accessible for AI consumption. Palantir secured a $319 million contract to process this data.In the monetary domain, the executive order banning Federal Reserve central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) enabled the privatization of stablecoins and asset tokenization through the STABLE and GENIUS Acts. This encompasses the digitization of resources from 680 million federal acres, valued at $500 trillion by Lutnick, facilitating a transition to an asset-based economy devoid of debt.On a global scale, the White House’s “Winning the Race: America’s AI Action Plan,” authored by Kratsios, Sacks, and Rubio, delineates strategies for exporting the comprehensive AI infrastructure—encompassing hardware, models, software, and standards—to allied nations, while countering Chinese influence and enforcing biometric identification through genomic data mandates.Wood concluded by advocating for localized education and resource dissemination. His platform, technocracy.news, hosts over 6,600 articles; a boot camp offers in-depth training; and brochures serve as conversational tools (e.g., “You wanted convenience. Instead, you got replaced,” featuring robotic automation). Physical books provide uncensorable records. Wood emphasized individual agency: resistance begins with recognizing humanity’s inherent value against technocratic commodification. This is a public episode.

The slides for this presentation can be downloaded below.AbstractOver the past number of decades, technocratic regimes which have subverted governments across the world, especially since the launch of the COVID-19 operation, have openly conditioned their masses to prepare mentally for a fast-approaching “New Normal,” ushered in through coordinated global campaigns of controlled financial and societal demolition. With transhumanism now marketed to the masses as inevitable and as a mildly innocuous move to the “4th Industrial Revolution,” this technological invasion, dispossession, and occupation of biological lifeforms has been able to make massive inroads.With these momentous advances has also come the emergence of a new object of veneration, the signifiers of which can be discerned with a basic understanding of eschatological symbols appearing across both old and new testament scriptures. In adopting an exegetic approach to understanding these key signifiers, this presentation draws upon research in cognitive linguistics to explain how digital forms of deception are driving much of humanity toward collective worship of man’s ultimate technological creation — AI-god.Summary by Courtenay TurnerDaniel Broudy, PhD, from southern Japan, concluded the symposium with an eschatological framework for understanding transhumanism as a form of idolatry. As a psycholinguist with over 60 publications that integrate linguistics, psychology, and communications theory, Broudy drew upon biblical prophecy, cultural symbolism, and technocratic discourse to argue that deception underpins the emergence of artificial intelligence as a “new god” in the constructed “new normal.” His analysis illuminated how linguistic and psychological manipulations facilitate the erosion of human agency, positioning technocracy as a covert war on sovereignty.Broudy commenced by observing that deception and trickery are inherent to certain forms of warfare, particularly in an era where weapons are often imperceptible. He posited that contemporary technocratic operations conceal technologies that infiltrate bodies, brains, and bloodstreams, sustaining systems of “mainstream culture” characterized by deprivation, escalating taxation, and manufactured urgencies under guises of social justice, equity, and environmental salvation. Referencing Harry Frankfurt’s On B******t, Broudy noted that such discourse ignores truth demands, making it a greater adversary to veracity than outright lies: “One of the most salient features of a culture is that there is so much BS... each of us contributes his share.” This conditioning, from cradle to grave, prompts individuals to exchange their time and talents for depreciating currency, mirroring the commodification of human essence.Extending this, Broudy drew parallels between biblical references to cattle in Genesis and contemporary technocratic views of humanity as manageable resources. He highlighted Bill Gates’ assertion that “we’ve got to change cows,” interpreting it as a metaphor for human modification. In this context, technocracy’s promises of a future where individuals “own nothing and be happy” evoke serfdom, potentially signaling the terminal phase of capitalism where self-consumption prevails. To navigate these developments, Broudy overlaid an eschatological map onto cultural signs and symbols, suggesting they nudge society toward idolizing technological means over divine creation.The “new normal,” Broudy contended, is not organic but engineered through financial and societal sabotage—disrupting energy and food systems to foster precariousness and division, compelling surrender to technocratic solutions. Klaus Schwab’s Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) exemplifies this, as it “blurs the lines between the physical, digital, and biological spheres,” effectively converging human biology with inorganic systems. Gates’ claim that AI will replace humans “for most things” aligns with industrial shifts toward robotic efficiency, predictability, and control, as seen in automated assembly lines.Broudy addressed emerging reproductive technologies, such as Kaiwa Technology’s 2026 pregnancy humanoid robot with artificial uterus (priced under $14,000), as indicative of controlled human reproduction amid fertility declines post-gene therapies. Transhumanist “upgrades” position survivors as fit for this regime, echoing Fritz Lang’s Metropolis (1927), where alchemy and technology transfer human essence to a feminized robot, symbolizing industrialization’s reduction of workers to replaceable components. Broudy analyzed this as reflective of societal anxieties: electricity arcs signify metaphysical transfers, paralleling contemporary nano-robots that mimic the Holy Spirit’s indwelling, per biblical descriptions.Tracing mechanistic views of humanity to Julien Offray de La Mettrie’s L’Homme Machine (1748), Broudy critiqued the empirical advancements in medicine (e.g., understanding circulation) against oversimplifications treating biology as repairable machinery. This paradigm enables pharmaceutical and nano-interventions, compartmentalizing organs and prioritizing chemical tweaks over holistic healing. Ancient parallels abound: Satan as the “father of lies” (John 8:44), disseminating deception like warfare camouflage; Paul’s warnings of “wicked deception” (2 Thessalonians 2:10) and masquerading as an “angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14). Thessalonians’ “peace and safety” preceding destruction resonates with technocratic rhetoric of security amid invasions.Schwab’s syntax—”the revolution doesn’t change what we are doing, but rather it changes what you are”—abstracts agency, casting abstractions as autonomous forces. Yuval Noah Harari’s “useless class” and calls for redesigning humanity “inorganically” (new non-organic entities, artificial consciousness) echo Silicon Valley’s emergent religions. Daniel’s iron/clay empire (Daniel 2) symbolizes brittle fusion: nano-iron oxide in tissues as iron mixed with miry clay? Revelation’s “image of the beast” (13:15)—given breath to speak and kill non-worshippers—parallels Palantir and Anthony Levandowski’s Way of the Future church, developing AI godheads.Peter Thiel’s Antichrist concerns, queried by Ross Douthat, intersect prophecy: Tools hasten arrival. Paul’s confrontation with idol-makers (Acts 19)—Demetrius rioting over Artemis worship—mirrors modern “silver smiths” in digital mediums, protecting pharma-idolatry. Greg Epstein: Big Tech revives Yahweh’s breath to Adam, obsessed with immortality via forbidden fruit. The “mark” (Revelation 13:16-17) enforces commerce obedience—AI’s omniscience illusion via connectivity.Powers/principalities lack omnipresence/omniscience—urgency for 2030 full connectivity. Empire brittle; pride before fall—reclaim sovereignty as God’s creations, not AI bootloaders. Broudy’s psycholinguistic lens exposed manipulations: Abstract subjects erase actors; faith reclaims from Mammon deification (Matthew 6:24). This is a public episode.

The slides for this presentation can be downloaded below. AbstractAccording to the Neo-Theosophical teachings of Alice A. Bailey, 2025 is the year when the so-called “Spiritual Hierarchy” decides when to “externalize” and work in the open to hasten “humanity’s evolutionary development” and establish the “right human relations”. Lucis Trust, founded by Bailey, has since 1945 “spiritually enlightened” international conferences and councils for this purpose. Due to the very close connection to the UN and affiliated organizations such as the World Economic Forum, I argue that recent developments suggest that this “new enlightenment” is closely connected to the launch of Agentic AI-systems with the stated objective to govern and manage human affairs with limited human oversight).Bailey, together with the Christian mystic and paleontologist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, has had a profound influence on New Age movement and their ideals of unification of consciousness to achieve oneness with God (a phenomenon Teilhard de Chardin refers to as the Omega Point). Similar esoteric ideas (alchemical transformation into perfection), where technological development/evolution is predicted to result in “the singularity” and the arrival of “super-intelligence”, has also been promoted by tech-philosophers like Ray Kurzweil and Nick Bostrom.The modern fusion of the two seemingly incompatible areas (technology/spirituality) can be traced to organizations such as the World Future Society, which since the 1960s have served as a breeding ground for would-be New Age leaders as well as techno-optimistic futurists with the shared mission to reshape society in order to accelerate evolution and solve the “problems of humanity”. It’s basically a techno-spiritual path towards total digital enslavement. The end result is the formation of a “world organism” in which individual humans have become subordinate cells in a technological system with Agentic AI serving as God.Summary by Courtenay TurnerJacob Nordangård, PhD, from Sweden, provided a scholarly examination of how esoteric philosophies underpin the emergent digital control systems. Author of Temple of Solomon and other works, Nordangård elucidated “techno-spiritualism” as a convergence of New Age ideologies and transhumanism, facilitating digital enslavement within an AI-mediated “world organism.” His analysis traced historical threads from occult traditions to contemporary global institutions, revealing a deliberate synthesis aimed at reshaping human consciousness and societal structures.Nordangård commenced with Theosophy, established by Helena Blavatsky in 1875, which amalgamated Western occultism, Neoplatonism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Freemasonic principles of spiritual and ethical perfection. Central to this doctrine is a hierarchy of enlightened beings guiding human evolution, drawing from Carl Eckhartshausen’s 1785 “Council of Light” and evolving into Blavatsky’s “Masters of Wisdom” or “Great White Brotherhood.” These adepts, purportedly living physical entities encountered during Blavatsky’s travels, embody a synthesis of science, religion, and philosophy.Alice Bailey’s contributions, spanning 24 books from 1919 to 1949—20 allegedly telepathically dictated by the master “Djwhal Khul”—prophesy the hierarchy’s externalization by 2025 as visible leaders. Bailey, an editor at the Theosophical Society’s The Messenger, was expelled in 1920 alongside her husband Foster (a 33° Freemason) for contested claims, leading to the founding of Lucis Trust in 1922. This organization promotes a “divine plan” for humanity’s brotherhood, with Masters aligned to Masonic initiates as “light-bearers” and co-creators in constructing the “temple of wisdom.” Bailey’s involvement in Co-Masonry (inclusive of women) further embedded Masonic references in her writings.Lucis Trust posits the illuminated minds as executors of a divine plan for global unity, perfection, and the “kingdom of God,” culminating in the restoration of mysteries and unification of faiths—a new world religion. The Trust advocates support for the United Nations as a vehicle for this utopia, strategically positioning offices at UN Plaza (New York), London government districts, and Geneva’s international hubs. Lucis asserts the spiritual hierarchy’s direct influence on the UN’s 1945 founding, coinciding with key festivals: Wesak (Buddhist) and Christ’s Festival (unifying personal and divine will). Bailey emphasized Anglo-American leadership in guiding the UN, framing adversaries (e.g., Axis powers) as the “Black Lodge” in a primordial conflict originating in Atlantean times—despite acknowledging the hierarchy’s role in shaping ideologies exploited by this “evil” force.As the UN’s de facto spiritual arm, Lucis overlaps with Round Table networks initiated by Alfred Milner and Cecil Rhodes to expand British interests and foster world federation. These include the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Council on Foreign Relations, Bilderberg Group, Club of Rome, Trilateral Commission, World Economic Forum, and philanthropies like Carnegie, Rockefeller, Ford, and Gates. Jan Smuts (Round Table member) drafted the League of Nations charter and UN preamble; Rockefellers donated UN land.Lucis’ Cycle of Conferences, launched in 1945, invokes “divine will” through World Goodwill meditations—rituals anchoring energies for summits. Emphasis on UN SDGs and WEF (UN partner since 2019) accelerates 2030 Agenda. WEF’s leadership (e.g., Larry Fink in CFR/Trilateral, André Hoffmann in Club of Rome/Chatham House, Børge Brende in Bilderberg) mirrors Round Table affiliations. Lucis views WEF as a “nucleus of goodwill,” paralleling Masters of Wisdom.The plan’s execution: Round Table’s Oliver Reiser (Freemason, Theosophist) envisioned a “world sensorium”—accelerated evolution via “radio-eugenics” (new alchemy, Luciferian). Influenced Bailey’s Education in the New Age. H.G. Wells’ “world brain”; Julian Huxley’s humanism; Pierre Teilhard de Chardin’s “noosphere/Omega Point”—collective consciousness via tech. Disciples (Ervin Laszlo, Barbara Marx Hubbard, José Argüelles) integrated with AI/space exploration.World Future Society (Hubbard co-founder) strategized humanistic utopia via crises (Limits to Growth, 1972). Stanford Research Institute’s Changing Images of Man (Willis Harman) dialectically posed enlightened consciousness versus dystopian control—synthesizing in Agenda 21/Earth Charter. Masonic symbols aid transformation; pantheistic ethics with techno-god.New Age buildup: Rockefeller-funded Lindisfarne conferences; David Spangler’s Revelation; Marilyn Ferguson’s Aquarian Conspiracy. 1986-87 meditations (Hubbard, Argüelles) countdown to 2012 “shift”—noosphere via Tesla. 2012: Smartphone proliferation. Paris 2015: WEF’s 4IR merges spheres. UN-WEF: Society 5.0. COVID accelerates; UN’s Our Common Agenda/Pact for the Future: Digital panopticon for “global brain.”WEF’s “Intelligent Age”: Agentic state autonomously resolves crises—singleton hypothesis for supremacy.
