External Quote:"The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values. Soon it will be possible to assert almost continuous surveillance over every citizen and maintain up-to-date complete files containing even the most personal information about the citizen. These files will be subject to instantaneous retrieval by the authorities. "
― Zbigniew Brzezinski, Between Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era
"In the technotronic society the trend would seem to be towards the aggregation of the individual support of millions of uncoordinated citizens, easily within the reach of magnetic and attractive personalities exploiting the latest communications techniques to manipulate emotions and control reason."
― Zbigniew Brzezinski, Between Two Ages: America's Role in the Technetronic Era
"This regionalization is in keeping with the Tri-Lateral Plan which calls for a gradual convergence of East and West, ultimately leading toward the goal of one world government. National sovereignty is no longer a viable concept."
― Zbigniew Brzezinski
"Another threat, less overt but no less basic, confronts liberal democracy. More directly linked to the impact of technology, it involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled and directed society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite whose claim to political power would rest on allegedly superior scientific knowhow. Unhindered by the restraints of traditional liberal values, this elite would not hesitate to achieve its political ends by using the latest modern techniques for influencing public behavior and keeping society under close surveillance and control. Under such circumstances, the scientific and technological momentum of the country would not be reversed but would actually feed on the situation it exploits.
… Persisting social crisis, the emergence of a charismatic personality, and the exploitation of mass media to obtain public confidence would be the steppingstones in the piecemeal transformation of the United States into a highly controlled society."
― Zbigniew Brzezinski
Zbigniew Brzezinski is far from just a visionary he is one of the most influential architects of the post WWII era . . .So really who knew!? Aliens working for the government since 1970?
The quotes remind me of the "world of the future" from the 1938 (?) world's fair. And the world of the future from the 1964 world's fair which I attended. Pipe dreams and imaginations that only partially resemble the real future.
Written in 1970

Did you ever think that is one of the uses of the whacko fringe . . . to disarm speculation into the gray areas of debate . . . an immunization as it were . . .I agree that this is prophetic, and a huge problem. What annoys me is that if I sign up against surveillance and GMOs, that I get associated with people who talk endlessly about chemtrails, fake moon landings, tornados as God's retribution, reptilian Royals, etc. They are diluting the important issues with mindless conspiracy claptrap.
Yes, there we have it... yet another conspiracy...Did you ever think that is one of the uses of the whacko fringe . . . to disarm speculation into the gray areas of debate . . . an immunization as it were . . .![]()

If one views the actions of centers of interest . . . ie . . . conservative vs liberal, Democrat vs Republican, US vs Russian foreign policy, Israel vs Muslim interests etc . . . I believe there is a level of military strategy being played out . . . that is straw-men, trial balloons, misinformation, disinformation, propoganda, camouflage etc., etc. these games for leverage in a chaotic world may well lead to rather strange manifestations . . . including the use of extreme fringe beliefs on the part of targeted groups to foment unrest, violence, or justify rational for military actions one may wish to blame on radical groups . . .So the conspiracies are a conspiracy to hide the conspiracies??
Makes a sort of insane sense!!![]()
