1 00:00:00,450 --> 00:00:05,250 I'm in Psyop you're in Psyop heck even those who are running 2 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,050 the Psyop they're in a Psyop. 3 00:00:08,910 --> 00:00:10,650 Hey, it's Lucas Skrobot. 4 00:00:10,650 --> 00:00:14,010 And you're listening to Lucas Skrobot show where we uncover purpose, pursue 5 00:00:14,015 --> 00:00:17,760 truth and own the future episode 294. 6 00:00:18,060 --> 00:00:22,260 It is August 11th, 2022. 7 00:00:23,009 --> 00:00:26,610 And quite frankly, I'm beginning to believe more and more. 8 00:00:26,700 --> 00:00:30,090 That really all of reality is a Psyop. 9 00:00:30,090 --> 00:00:34,830 Now that, that does not mean that all of reality is an illusion like 10 00:00:34,860 --> 00:00:39,959 Eastern mysticism would like you to believe which it's, it's just not. 11 00:00:41,144 --> 00:00:43,305 The the, the real world is real. 12 00:00:43,305 --> 00:00:50,085 This is not an illusion that we are living in, but we are living within Psyop. 13 00:00:50,089 --> 00:00:58,875 We are living within a, a spiritual realm that wants to distract you. 14 00:00:58,935 --> 00:01:04,785 That wants to engage your negative emotions, your rage, your anger, 15 00:01:04,965 --> 00:01:09,585 your, your life source, and they wanted to you to spend it. 16 00:01:10,304 --> 00:01:16,035 On things that are actually going to just squander your life away. 17 00:01:16,035 --> 00:01:18,405 And one of, one of those things is the news. 18 00:01:18,914 --> 00:01:26,054 The, the, the news 24 7 media news cycle is the biggest Psyop of all. 19 00:01:27,164 --> 00:01:33,615 I think it's so big that I really do believe that all of those who are running 20 00:01:33,615 --> 00:01:39,015 media companies and organizations, not all, that's probably an exaggeration. 21 00:01:39,570 --> 00:01:41,700 But they're caught up in the Psyop as well. 22 00:01:42,089 --> 00:01:47,729 It's because you have to be, you have to be cuz you're 23 00:01:47,729 --> 00:01:51,060 incentivized to be pushing stories. 24 00:01:51,870 --> 00:01:55,830 That polarize and engage people to keep looking at their screens. 25 00:01:55,860 --> 00:01:56,220 Why? 26 00:01:56,220 --> 00:01:59,940 Cause if you're not looking at the screen, if you're not listening to it, 27 00:01:59,940 --> 00:02:04,410 if you're not scrolling, liking, tapping, subscribing, then all that will happen. 28 00:02:04,410 --> 00:02:06,540 If you're not doing that, they'll lose subscribers. 29 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,000 They'll lose advertisement and they'll go out of business while 30 00:02:09,005 --> 00:02:09,990 they can't go out of business. 31 00:02:09,990 --> 00:02:11,760 Cuz they are a business. 32 00:02:11,970 --> 00:02:16,200 I think they're in a Psyop for instance, the, the political 33 00:02:16,205 --> 00:02:18,700 real again, just another big C. 34 00:02:19,230 --> 00:02:23,520 You have to engage your base of constituents. 35 00:02:24,750 --> 00:02:30,600 You, you, the political theater this week, the only thing that people 36 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:34,680 are talking about the last couple days is the raid on Trump's estate. 37 00:02:35,580 --> 00:02:40,200 The FBI, which was weaponized under president Obama for 38 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:47,100 political gain, uh, rated former president Donald Trump's house. 39 00:02:48,150 --> 00:02:53,760 To see some documents that supposedly were illegally taken from the white house. 40 00:02:55,290 --> 00:03:00,450 The one of the judges who signed the warrant to rate his estate is connected 41 00:03:00,450 --> 00:03:02,760 with none other than Jeffrey Epstein. 42 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:08,490 The, the, this child sex trafficker, who was mysteriously, 43 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,370 mysteriously killed in jail Epstein. 44 00:03:12,990 --> 00:03:16,620 But ladies and gentlemen, of course, of course, this is important. 45 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:24,780 Of course, it is important that we, we are aware of the current events 46 00:03:24,785 --> 00:03:27,930 that we're aware of things that are going on, that we're aware that this 47 00:03:27,930 --> 00:03:34,140 is an extreme abuse of power, even, even Cuomo a, a Democrat as, as pro, 48 00:03:34,740 --> 00:03:36,690 who almost has progresses as you get. 49 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,740 As soon as it happened, posted on Twitter, there better be 50 00:03:40,950 --> 00:03:42,630 a legit search warrant there. 51 00:03:42,810 --> 00:03:48,660 This better be legit and not just a, a political weaponization of the FBI, 52 00:03:48,900 --> 00:03:55,020 because if it is all it will do is further fuel those on the right and will 53 00:03:55,020 --> 00:04:01,980 be seen as a total abuse of power by the administration, the Biden administration 54 00:04:01,980 --> 00:04:03,150 and the department of justice. 55 00:04:04,290 --> 00:04:05,550 So these things do matter. 56 00:04:06,630 --> 00:04:10,649 They do matter when it comes to the path that America is on. 57 00:04:10,649 --> 00:04:14,160 And we're gonna talk a little bit about the path that America is on today and the 58 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:21,269 way that the rest of the world is viewing America and the, the, the, the pros and 59 00:04:21,269 --> 00:04:28,710 the cons of that, the realities and the illusions, or the, the delusion of the way 60 00:04:28,715 --> 00:04:34,500 that America is being viewed right now, because it is being viewed in a way that. 61 00:04:35,235 --> 00:04:38,655 Being manufactured again by the media. 62 00:04:38,745 --> 00:04:42,665 And it's then turning into a self-fulfilling prophecy, a 63 00:04:42,705 --> 00:04:46,935 a self-fulfilling prophecy of the coming demise of America 64 00:04:46,940 --> 00:04:49,695 and of the current world order. 65 00:04:52,365 --> 00:04:56,835 So we can't get caught up in every single. 66 00:04:58,365 --> 00:05:04,034 Political theater act because if we do it will steal and suck our life for us. 67 00:05:04,034 --> 00:05:07,695 I, I, I probably have told this story here before on the show. 68 00:05:08,865 --> 00:05:17,055 My dad used to watch the news two, three hours a day and sit and would be 69 00:05:18,255 --> 00:05:21,555 daily by the insanity that is going. 70 00:05:22,605 --> 00:05:27,795 Now, maybe for our younger generation that isn't watching the news every day, we're 71 00:05:27,795 --> 00:05:32,715 scrolling on social media and Twitter and whatever news site and source every day. 72 00:05:32,715 --> 00:05:36,825 And, and doesn't matter what side of the aisle that you're on, but we 73 00:05:36,825 --> 00:05:45,225 can waste our life source scrolling, being enraged, being triggered and not 74 00:05:45,225 --> 00:05:50,865 realizing that we are wasting precious life source every day when we could. 75 00:05:51,180 --> 00:05:52,140 Be doing something else. 76 00:05:52,140 --> 00:05:54,240 When we ought to be doing something else. 77 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,960 And my dad, he got to a point where he realized either he needs 78 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:03,420 to become engaged in the political sphere in local government, or he 79 00:06:03,420 --> 00:06:06,300 needs to stop watching the news because it's a waste of his energy. 80 00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:07,530 It's a waste of his life. 81 00:06:07,530 --> 00:06:09,600 It's a waste of his emotions. 82 00:06:11,790 --> 00:06:16,140 As I said, I think, I think those who are running legitimate SYOP. 83 00:06:16,965 --> 00:06:23,685 Are in SYOP because we live in, we live in a physical realm, a natural realm, where 84 00:06:23,685 --> 00:06:30,914 there are bad actors, where there are evil men and women who intentionally are, 85 00:06:31,395 --> 00:06:34,215 are, are seeking to manipulate society. 86 00:06:34,215 --> 00:06:37,604 Maybe, maybe we should stop and say, what is a SYOP if you don't know what a CYOP 87 00:06:37,604 --> 00:06:42,044 is since I've used the term about 50 times so far in the first 10 minutes of the. 88 00:06:43,304 --> 00:06:48,494 A CYOP is a psychological operation or operations to convey selected 89 00:06:48,494 --> 00:06:54,044 information and indicators to audiences to influence their emotions, 90 00:06:54,104 --> 00:06:58,335 motives, objective reasoning, and ultimately the behaviors of government 91 00:06:58,515 --> 00:07:00,825 organizations, groups, and individuals. 92 00:07:01,335 --> 00:07:04,815 So a CYOP would be, it could be a government, it could be 93 00:07:05,025 --> 00:07:06,554 a, a private organization. 94 00:07:07,395 --> 00:07:14,355 Looking to manipulate and pull a group of people into a storyline, often a 95 00:07:14,355 --> 00:07:21,225 fabricated storyline to, to stir up emotions and rage to then activate that 96 00:07:21,225 --> 00:07:25,335 group, certain political or economic ends. 97 00:07:25,725 --> 00:07:26,745 This is a CYOP. 98 00:07:27,735 --> 00:07:33,854 And so when we look at the media industrial, We can see that there are 99 00:07:33,854 --> 00:07:38,534 incentives in the natural realm that are in place that would push people 100 00:07:38,655 --> 00:07:44,445 to continue to move to more and more polarizing positions to more and 101 00:07:44,445 --> 00:07:49,724 more polarizing click bait storyline, and that's you have to make money. 102 00:07:52,185 --> 00:07:53,054 So I understand that. 103 00:07:54,375 --> 00:07:57,945 And the, the incentive structure inherent. 104 00:07:59,295 --> 00:08:06,405 Leads to that, because if you post a, a, a story, a whole write up on how 105 00:08:06,645 --> 00:08:11,475 a, a small town in Europe is getting along together quite wonderfully, if 106 00:08:11,475 --> 00:08:18,825 you post a story of how a, a community in the inner city of Chicago or 107 00:08:18,825 --> 00:08:22,365 London or Tokyo is helping people. 108 00:08:22,980 --> 00:08:26,520 They're they're sitting down and they're crossing the political barriers and 109 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,470 lines and getting to know one another. 110 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:31,980 Who is that gonna sell? 111 00:08:32,310 --> 00:08:34,049 Is that are people going to share it? 112 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:38,730 Are people going to comment with enraged comments and, and 113 00:08:38,735 --> 00:08:40,020 tag all their friends in it? 114 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,150 See, this is what's wrong with the world. 115 00:08:42,630 --> 00:08:44,640 It's it's we're all gonna die. 116 00:08:45,330 --> 00:08:45,870 No. 117 00:08:45,930 --> 00:08:46,860 What gets the clicks? 118 00:08:46,860 --> 00:08:47,880 What gets the views? 119 00:08:50,090 --> 00:08:50,670 The SYOP. 120 00:08:53,850 --> 00:08:57,720 The stories that cause us to be enraged. 121 00:08:57,900 --> 00:09:00,510 And that comes from media politics. 122 00:09:01,090 --> 00:09:06,390 The, the new world order wants you to be enraged because it will create a 123 00:09:06,390 --> 00:09:09,090 self fulfilling prophecy of division. 124 00:09:09,270 --> 00:09:13,560 And if a nation or a, a society is divided, it will fall and will 125 00:09:13,560 --> 00:09:15,120 undermine the current world order. 126 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:20,490 So all, all the, the new world order agenda people out there need to. 127 00:09:21,645 --> 00:09:27,285 All the socialists and communists need to do progressive need to do to see the, the 128 00:09:27,285 --> 00:09:35,985 downfall of the current world order is to get people to divide against themselves. 129 00:09:35,990 --> 00:09:40,335 And you can do that by enraging the population, polarizing the population. 130 00:09:40,814 --> 00:09:44,535 And then you can just sit back and let time take its role. 131 00:09:45,585 --> 00:09:50,204 And we will eventually undermine and self-destruct itself. 132 00:09:50,204 --> 00:09:50,475 Well. 133 00:09:51,825 --> 00:09:54,615 There is an article from the Atlantic this week. 134 00:09:54,945 --> 00:10:04,365 Uh, amazing by, uh, Tom NAAG and, uh, it's titled what America's great 135 00:10:04,365 --> 00:10:06,675 unwinding would mean for the world. 136 00:10:07,095 --> 00:10:10,245 It doesn't really quite answer that question of what it would mean for 137 00:10:10,245 --> 00:10:13,815 the world, but I'm gonna read a couple different segments from his. 138 00:10:15,300 --> 00:10:16,110 It starts off with this. 139 00:10:16,110 --> 00:10:20,490 A particular cognitive dissonance seems to have taken hold of the world. 140 00:10:20,790 --> 00:10:25,950 The Western's response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine led and propped 141 00:10:25,950 --> 00:10:31,230 up by the United States has reminded the world that international order is 142 00:10:31,260 --> 00:10:40,620 if anything more dependent on American military economic and financial might now. 143 00:10:42,750 --> 00:10:48,060 Then only a few years ago, if anything, that we are more dependent on America, 144 00:10:48,180 --> 00:10:52,920 excuse me, more dependent on America's military economic and financial support 145 00:10:52,980 --> 00:10:57,660 now than only a few years ago, yet everywhere you turn, there is a sense 146 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:03,510 that the us is in some sort of terminal decline that we are too divided, 147 00:11:03,810 --> 00:11:09,990 incoherent, violent, and dysfunctional to the saying to sustain the PS America. 148 00:11:10,785 --> 00:11:16,724 Moscow and Beijing seem to think that the great American unwinding has already 149 00:11:16,724 --> 00:11:22,395 begun while in Europe, officials worry about a sudden American collapse. 150 00:11:23,295 --> 00:11:24,255 Do we talk about it? 151 00:11:24,525 --> 00:11:31,635 Michael Delo, a former French ambassador to Syria who remains well connected 152 00:11:31,635 --> 00:11:33,525 within Europe's diplomatic network. 153 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:40,230 Me or him somewhat indigently after I asked whether an American implosion 154 00:11:40,230 --> 00:11:45,150 was ever discussed at the highest levels of government, he said we never 155 00:11:45,300 --> 00:11:49,290 stop talking about it again and again. 156 00:11:49,295 --> 00:11:52,830 When I spoke with officials, when Tom spoke with officials, diplomats, 157 00:11:52,860 --> 00:11:55,590 politicians, and aids in Britain and Europe, over the past few 158 00:11:55,590 --> 00:11:57,240 weeks, the same message came back. 159 00:11:57,300 --> 00:11:58,860 It's weighing on people's minds. 160 00:11:59,130 --> 00:11:59,490 Big. 161 00:12:03,285 --> 00:12:08,175 All this seems to add up to the collective imagination and impression that the 162 00:12:09,585 --> 00:12:17,625 country is on the brink meeting all the conditions for dissent into civil unrest. 163 00:12:18,555 --> 00:12:23,505 He details how officials are are seen from the outside. 164 00:12:23,505 --> 00:12:27,695 What all of us are seen when we look at media, which is the civil unre. 165 00:12:28,170 --> 00:12:35,160 We see the, the extreme pushes of the LGBTQ plus movement and 166 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,869 the extreme backlash from that. 167 00:12:36,930 --> 00:12:41,609 The, you see the, the, the division in America, when it comes to abortion, 168 00:12:43,439 --> 00:12:52,229 you see the, the seeming breakdown of all sense of decency in America, 169 00:12:53,250 --> 00:12:56,160 the political division, and unres. 170 00:12:57,089 --> 00:12:59,910 Its cause for concern, we talk about it here on the show all the 171 00:12:59,910 --> 00:13:06,689 time he goes on in this article, America's continuing dominance. 172 00:13:06,689 --> 00:13:12,000 In fact, that the world is fixated on and the world is fixated 173 00:13:12,005 --> 00:13:13,980 on the idea of its impending. 174 00:13:13,980 --> 00:13:14,910 Demise seems. 175 00:13:15,795 --> 00:13:20,925 Both a dramatic overreaction and a dramatic under reaction, the depth of 176 00:13:20,925 --> 00:13:25,964 America's military industrial complex and the scale of its Imperial bureaucracy 177 00:13:26,235 --> 00:13:30,015 means that they are simply too heavy for one single president or Congress 178 00:13:30,015 --> 00:13:32,655 to remove to an extraordinary degree. 179 00:13:32,685 --> 00:13:37,185 American power has been vaccinated against its own political dysfunction. 180 00:13:37,515 --> 00:13:40,425 What he's referring to here is that not one person that, 181 00:13:40,425 --> 00:13:42,225 that, that America is actually. 182 00:13:43,065 --> 00:13:48,255 Stable enough that not one person or political party can totally undermine 183 00:13:48,345 --> 00:13:50,415 America, but then he poses the question. 184 00:13:50,415 --> 00:13:53,205 What happens if that stops working? 185 00:13:53,505 --> 00:13:55,815 What would be the global consequences? 186 00:13:55,875 --> 00:14:03,705 Well, places like Poland, Japan, Taiwan, and Ukraine, they would all fall to 187 00:14:03,705 --> 00:14:07,425 the I impending powers that want their. 188 00:14:09,660 --> 00:14:13,350 He says it's the very basis that the American industrial complex is the 189 00:14:13,350 --> 00:14:17,370 very basis for the order of today. 190 00:14:20,910 --> 00:14:24,540 But besides talking about the fragility of these foundations, no 191 00:14:24,545 --> 00:14:27,540 one is doing anything to secure them. 192 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:34,150 What I find find interesting about his article is that he's detail. 193 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,310 How America, how the dollar is stronger than it's ever been. 194 00:14:38,310 --> 00:14:44,010 How the world Europe specifically is more reliant on American military 195 00:14:44,010 --> 00:14:45,300 in NATO than it's ever been. 196 00:14:45,300 --> 00:14:47,190 Countries are joining NATO now. 197 00:14:47,190 --> 00:14:54,030 And if it wasn't for America holding, uh, nations in check, we would see 198 00:14:54,540 --> 00:15:01,500 a vast changes in the, the, the social structure, the political 199 00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:02,850 structure, the trade structure. 200 00:15:04,290 --> 00:15:04,800 The world. 201 00:15:05,369 --> 00:15:10,199 And so more now than ever America is holding a power balance. 202 00:15:10,740 --> 00:15:16,350 But we all looking in from the outside, through the lens of media, through 203 00:15:16,350 --> 00:15:21,570 the lens of news, which cause us to be enraged, which are pushing stories that 204 00:15:21,570 --> 00:15:26,910 show the division and the separation and the bickering and the infighting 205 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:32,340 in American culture today, those things then create self-fulfilling prophecies 206 00:15:32,340 --> 00:15:35,010 for us to see America through that lens. 207 00:15:35,370 --> 00:15:39,810 When in reality, day by day on the ground, life is going. 208 00:15:41,430 --> 00:15:46,770 Communities are trucking forward, and many people are living their lives. 209 00:15:47,189 --> 00:15:55,319 Unaware of these, uh, massive geopolitical social implications of what would 210 00:15:55,319 --> 00:16:00,300 happen if America came crashing down, they're they're unaware and relatively 211 00:16:00,300 --> 00:16:07,170 untouched by these the issues, the social issues that are impending in America. 212 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,830 But when we become so hooked into 213 00:16:17,460 --> 00:16:24,210 the media complex, we then begin down a road of a self-fulfilling prophecy 214 00:16:25,260 --> 00:16:32,730 where populations in America become enraged political divides become broader 215 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:34,800 and broader, further and further. 216 00:16:36,470 --> 00:16:44,459 A, a study shows that only about 7% of the Republican and democratic 217 00:16:44,465 --> 00:16:46,890 party are really on the polar edges. 218 00:16:47,380 --> 00:16:51,390 Uh, and that's in America 7%. 219 00:16:51,689 --> 00:16:55,380 So you have 14% of the nation that is mostly PO polarized, 220 00:16:55,949 --> 00:16:57,750 which means you have 80. 221 00:16:58,740 --> 00:17:03,569 6% of a nation that is pretty much in the middle and United and, and can 222 00:17:03,569 --> 00:17:07,379 get along with one another, just 7% on each side, they can't get along 223 00:17:07,379 --> 00:17:12,060 with one another, but we see that 7% and then we create a perception 224 00:17:12,389 --> 00:17:14,400 of what will happen in the world. 225 00:17:14,700 --> 00:17:18,780 And then we act accordingly and that creates this self-fulfilling prophecy. 226 00:17:18,780 --> 00:17:24,280 And that really is in many ways, a sci. 227 00:17:25,170 --> 00:17:32,640 In many ways, the way that we view America, it can cause us to make decisions 228 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,410 that ultimately will harm us the way that we view where the world is going. 229 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:44,220 He ends this article by stating this America today is both mightier than it 230 00:17:44,220 --> 00:17:46,620 was a decade ago and more vulnerable. 231 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:47,340 This is true. 232 00:17:48,360 --> 00:17:50,220 The guarantee of world. 233 00:17:51,345 --> 00:17:54,945 And the greatest potential source for its disorder. 234 00:17:55,875 --> 00:18:01,635 And as long as it is the case, diplomats officials, politicians, and 235 00:18:01,845 --> 00:18:06,285 the general public outside America are going to both obsess about its 236 00:18:06,285 --> 00:18:13,695 collapse, whether out of gen genuine fear or Hallion adjacent hallucinatory 237 00:18:13,995 --> 00:18:18,105 projection, and be unable to do anything. 238 00:18:21,105 --> 00:18:21,975 And that is the point. 239 00:18:22,245 --> 00:18:27,585 We are UN completely unable to do anything about it. 240 00:18:29,535 --> 00:18:30,015 Yeah. 241 00:18:30,015 --> 00:18:30,825 That makes sense. 242 00:18:30,825 --> 00:18:33,975 In a post truth society, we have exchanged truth for lies and reason 243 00:18:33,975 --> 00:18:35,475 for postmodern irrationality. 244 00:18:35,475 --> 00:18:38,535 The observed finally makes sense. 245 00:18:38,535 --> 00:18:41,715 Well, this one actually does make, make sense America. 246 00:18:42,525 --> 00:18:46,185 The American educational complex, which we've talked about a number of times 247 00:18:46,185 --> 00:18:55,095 on the show is, uh, also in decline, we have talked, uh, about how there was 248 00:18:55,125 --> 00:19:01,215 a, a mix and emerge of the education sphere and the government sphere and 249 00:19:01,215 --> 00:19:07,065 the, the economic financial sphere in upper education in how it has led 250 00:19:07,065 --> 00:19:11,325 to a, a vast ballooning of student. 251 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,990 Loans and the cost of higher education. 252 00:19:16,290 --> 00:19:17,370 How did this all happen? 253 00:19:18,660 --> 00:19:26,460 As schools began to say, Hey, and governments began to say, Hey, government. 254 00:19:26,895 --> 00:19:28,785 You give us loans. 255 00:19:28,790 --> 00:19:33,135 You provide loans to our students that they can't default on. 256 00:19:33,135 --> 00:19:35,475 So the government sees a, a place that they can make money. 257 00:19:35,505 --> 00:19:39,345 They decide to give the loans to students to 18 year old kids to go 258 00:19:39,345 --> 00:19:45,315 get, uh, degrees in underwater basket weaving and what it means for the, uh, 259 00:19:45,525 --> 00:19:49,425 you know, pending climate catastrophe. 260 00:19:51,345 --> 00:19:55,425 For four years and $120,000, the government says, Hey, we'll give you 261 00:19:55,425 --> 00:19:58,365 this loan, but you can't default on it. 262 00:19:58,635 --> 00:20:02,385 You default, there's no way you can file for bankruptcy, but you 263 00:20:02,385 --> 00:20:03,885 still owe the government money. 264 00:20:04,965 --> 00:20:08,835 And then students began to take this money, cuz you're you're 18. 265 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:09,855 You gotta go to college. 266 00:20:09,855 --> 00:20:11,955 That's what the, the messaging says. 267 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,794 So they go to college, they take this loan for $120,000 from the 268 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,115 government that they can't default. 269 00:20:18,990 --> 00:20:20,520 They don't realize what they're doing. 270 00:20:21,120 --> 00:20:25,440 They come out of school with a degree that really didn't 271 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,180 teach them much by and large. 272 00:20:27,940 --> 00:20:30,420 I, if you got a degree in underwater basket weaving, 273 00:20:33,750 --> 00:20:39,750 this then causes, causes a cycle to begin where universities can 274 00:20:39,750 --> 00:20:42,210 begin to charge more and more money. 275 00:20:44,175 --> 00:20:46,725 Essentially for the student, they view it as free. 276 00:20:46,725 --> 00:20:47,955 Well, I'm, I'm going to school. 277 00:20:48,315 --> 00:20:50,055 The government is giving me money to do this. 278 00:20:50,055 --> 00:20:54,915 I can pay them back later, so you can continue to raise the rates without 279 00:20:54,915 --> 00:21:00,915 there being any real kickback from students or from their customers. 280 00:21:02,445 --> 00:21:09,015 This then has, has led to soaring rates to go to college in incredible amount 281 00:21:09,105 --> 00:21:12,765 of student loans while at the same time. 282 00:21:13,500 --> 00:21:19,080 Upper education has been weaponized from, from the Frankfurt 283 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:20,700 school, the Frankfurt school. 284 00:21:22,065 --> 00:21:25,155 After the, the, the fall of communism. 285 00:21:25,155 --> 00:21:28,995 And it was clear that communism and socialism, Marxism, wasn't going 286 00:21:28,995 --> 00:21:33,555 to work all of Marxist philosophers gathered at the Frankfurt school 287 00:21:33,555 --> 00:21:34,725 and they decided, you know what? 288 00:21:34,845 --> 00:21:37,875 This is the way that we will overthrow capitalism. 289 00:21:37,875 --> 00:21:41,685 We will do just what we've been describing, causing 290 00:21:41,925 --> 00:21:44,025 divisions among societies. 291 00:21:44,175 --> 00:21:45,555 And one of the ways that we will. 292 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:51,510 The minds of the youth is by infiltrating the education systems. 293 00:21:51,510 --> 00:21:57,990 And if we can infiltrate the education systems, enforce education, and we can, we 294 00:21:57,990 --> 00:22:01,170 can mold the minds of an 18 year old kid. 295 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,780 Then when they're 40, we'll have them, we'll win them. 296 00:22:03,785 --> 00:22:05,370 We'll win the war. 297 00:22:05,670 --> 00:22:07,710 They'll win it over a long period of time. 298 00:22:07,710 --> 00:22:13,710 So then these education systems, instead of teaching things that are neat, there's, 299 00:22:13,710 --> 00:22:15,270 there's good reason to go to college. 300 00:22:15,270 --> 00:22:15,930 We talk to our. 301 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,949 And we say, if you're going into the stem field, if you're gonna 302 00:22:19,949 --> 00:22:26,429 be going into science, technology, engineering, mathematics, physics, 303 00:22:27,810 --> 00:22:32,580 if you're going into the stem field, then yeah, you should go to college. 304 00:22:32,580 --> 00:22:33,360 You should get a degree. 305 00:22:33,360 --> 00:22:37,050 If you're gonna be a doctor, a lawyer, you should go get a degree. 306 00:22:37,679 --> 00:22:40,530 You should spend that time if that's what you wanna do with your life. 307 00:22:41,219 --> 00:22:42,899 But if you are gonna go. 308 00:22:43,590 --> 00:22:46,800 And spend four years to try to figure out what you might enjoy. 309 00:22:47,370 --> 00:22:51,840 Do that another way, get a job and change jobs every four years to 310 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:53,220 figure out what you might enjoy. 311 00:22:53,220 --> 00:22:58,890 Go to a trade school, go find an apprenticeship where 312 00:22:58,890 --> 00:23:00,510 you make money as you learn. 313 00:23:01,590 --> 00:23:03,540 So we are not against our kids going to college. 314 00:23:04,770 --> 00:23:10,140 I went to college, but we don't want our kids going to college for purposes. 315 00:23:10,514 --> 00:23:15,554 That they won't end up using for some liberal arts degree that will only 316 00:23:16,095 --> 00:23:22,455 indoctrinate them to progressive leftist ideolog ideologies and not actually 317 00:23:22,455 --> 00:23:33,014 give them hard skills and assets to be fruitful in the world and America and 318 00:23:33,014 --> 00:23:36,794 students across the globe are waking up to this fact, they're waking up 319 00:23:36,794 --> 00:23:39,735 to the fact that you leave college. 320 00:23:40,620 --> 00:23:41,850 You don't have a lot to show for it. 321 00:23:41,850 --> 00:23:45,570 You have a sheet of paper, which is becoming more and more irrelevant 322 00:23:45,870 --> 00:23:48,180 as we can learn skills online. 323 00:23:48,390 --> 00:23:53,130 And as companies are looking for experience, not just a four year degree, 324 00:23:54,570 --> 00:23:59,430 well, a study came out, says, why are Americans increasingly dubious about going 325 00:23:59,435 --> 00:24:02,370 to college with the exception of war time? 326 00:24:02,370 --> 00:24:07,320 The United States has never been through a period of declining educational attainment 327 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,090 like this at Michael Hicks, the. 328 00:24:10,215 --> 00:24:13,455 Of the center of business and economic research at ball state 329 00:24:13,455 --> 00:24:15,495 university Miller college of business. 330 00:24:17,535 --> 00:24:22,275 There are 4 million fewer students in college now in America 331 00:24:22,425 --> 00:24:27,105 than they were 10 years ago, a fall off, many observed blame. 332 00:24:27,135 --> 00:24:33,705 COVID 19 a dip in the number of Americans under 18 and a strong labor 333 00:24:33,705 --> 00:24:37,185 market that is sucking young people straight back into the workforce. 334 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:38,670 So there's the excuse. 335 00:24:38,670 --> 00:24:42,030 People are like, oh, it's COVID people are just going straight to the workforce. 336 00:24:42,030 --> 00:24:47,160 They're it's because of COVID and this is, this is just, uh, you know, a little blip. 337 00:24:47,165 --> 00:24:49,800 It's not a significant data point in the trend. 338 00:24:50,190 --> 00:24:56,430 However, while the pandemic certainly made things worse, the downturn took hold 339 00:24:56,490 --> 00:25:03,600 well, before it started, demographics alone cannot explain the scale of this. 340 00:25:05,790 --> 00:25:09,240 This was a trend before COVID even hit. 341 00:25:10,020 --> 00:25:15,149 This was a trend before COVID even hit there's in this article. 342 00:25:16,050 --> 00:25:23,610 There's statistics about numbers of states in America and how they've dropped 343 00:25:23,639 --> 00:25:28,260 in 10, 11, 12 percentage points from. 344 00:25:30,179 --> 00:25:39,179 From 53% down 11% in just a number of five years or dropped 12%, five years in 345 00:25:39,179 --> 00:25:46,590 West Virginia, only 46% of high school graduates went to college in 2011, 10% 346 00:25:46,919 --> 00:25:50,520 below the state's high of 56% in 2010. 347 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:53,879 And, and the numbers go on Arizona. 348 00:25:53,879 --> 00:25:57,720 46% of high school graduates graduates in 2020, went to college. 349 00:25:58,740 --> 00:26:05,939 The following fall, a drop from more than 55% in 2017, the, the number 350 00:26:05,939 --> 00:26:07,500 goes on just across the board. 351 00:26:08,850 --> 00:26:16,199 College attendance is down, down down, students are asking quote, is it worth it? 352 00:26:16,830 --> 00:26:17,850 Is college worth it? 353 00:26:17,854 --> 00:26:24,000 Will I come out of college with something that is worth it? 354 00:26:24,629 --> 00:26:26,820 Parents are saying to their kids. 355 00:26:27,195 --> 00:26:28,725 No, you're not going to college. 356 00:26:28,725 --> 00:26:32,055 You're not getting that four year degree, cuz you're gonna come out late in with 357 00:26:32,055 --> 00:26:33,705 debt and you're not gonna learn anything. 358 00:26:33,705 --> 00:26:36,195 And all that it will do is brainwash you. 359 00:26:39,495 --> 00:26:46,095 One teacher said that her students' parents quote, just don't value education, 360 00:26:46,100 --> 00:26:47,475 the way that they did in the past. 361 00:26:48,345 --> 00:26:54,705 I think that this is said, Amanda Debor who is a advisor? 362 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,380 In the statewide program in Tennessee called advised Tennessee. 363 00:26:58,710 --> 00:27:00,540 I feel like it's been slipping for years. 364 00:27:02,130 --> 00:27:02,940 Maybe that's true. 365 00:27:03,120 --> 00:27:05,190 Maybe they don't value education. 366 00:27:06,255 --> 00:27:11,205 Or maybe the education isn't valuable, maybe the things that are are being 367 00:27:11,265 --> 00:27:15,915 educated in upper education aren't actually valuable anymore in the real 368 00:27:15,915 --> 00:27:20,805 world, because it was, it was a tool that trained people to go into the 369 00:27:20,810 --> 00:27:24,765 industrial revolution and were past the industrial revolution that has moved on. 370 00:27:24,765 --> 00:27:25,875 We're in a new season, 371 00:27:29,805 --> 00:27:33,335 one advised Tennessee student who's headed to college. 372 00:27:34,335 --> 00:27:38,385 Said to his classmates said his classmates' parents in Nashville, 373 00:27:38,865 --> 00:27:44,145 tennis in Nashville used to tell them, quote, if you don't go to college, 374 00:27:44,205 --> 00:27:46,305 you're a bum that has changed. 375 00:27:46,305 --> 00:27:48,345 However, they don't think that anymore. 376 00:27:48,405 --> 00:27:49,275 Now they say, Nope. 377 00:27:49,305 --> 00:27:51,975 Actually I think college is a bad play. 378 00:27:52,365 --> 00:27:57,165 The, the minds of parents and the minds of students are changing 379 00:27:57,615 --> 00:28:00,975 and rightly so, rightly so. 380 00:28:02,300 --> 00:28:04,590 The economic rivals to America. 381 00:28:06,660 --> 00:28:09,990 Many of them, this is the end of the article say, could wish 382 00:28:10,050 --> 00:28:11,590 nothing better than the dece. 383 00:28:11,595 --> 00:28:14,850 The share of American adults who go to college drop by 12 points. 384 00:28:15,090 --> 00:28:20,610 It's literally cataclysmic said Hicks, and this is in one sense. 385 00:28:20,610 --> 00:28:20,970 True. 386 00:28:21,210 --> 00:28:28,740 It is cataclysmic that, that America and the students in the population of America. 387 00:28:30,315 --> 00:28:33,585 Are not pursuing the stem fields. 388 00:28:34,005 --> 00:28:36,405 They're not pursuing upper education. 389 00:28:37,265 --> 00:28:42,285 In fact, that will have the vast impact on America in decades to come. 390 00:28:43,005 --> 00:28:49,635 However, is it cataclysmic when the education that you're getting 391 00:28:49,725 --> 00:28:52,995 in a school is indoctrination and you're coming out of school with 392 00:28:53,205 --> 00:28:56,685 liberal arts degree that of, of. 393 00:28:57,764 --> 00:29:04,695 You know, gender studies, dance and how it intersects with, you know, 394 00:29:05,685 --> 00:29:12,135 the penguins and Antarctica, is that, is that a valuable degree that 395 00:29:12,135 --> 00:29:18,225 will cause them to do better in the world and be educated along a field? 396 00:29:18,705 --> 00:29:19,875 No, it won't. 397 00:29:20,565 --> 00:29:24,524 So I think it is good that people are waking up to the fact that 398 00:29:25,304 --> 00:29:26,835 the way that college is it's. 399 00:29:27,990 --> 00:29:31,740 It's not what it was 10, 20, 30 years ago. 400 00:29:31,740 --> 00:29:34,649 It's not, doesn't have its place in society anymore. 401 00:29:35,100 --> 00:29:41,370 So college education needs to pivot and change away from indoctrinating 402 00:29:41,370 --> 00:29:45,960 students and back to educating students along metrics that are 403 00:29:45,965 --> 00:29:48,419 actually relevant to the world. 404 00:29:48,810 --> 00:29:55,340 And we need to do away with these, these government loans. 405 00:29:55,980 --> 00:29:59,490 That you can't default on because essentially what it then becomes these, 406 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:04,230 all these schools become government schools, not public schools, government 407 00:30:04,230 --> 00:30:11,880 schools, which have been weaponized to brainwash, uh, to brainwash a generation 408 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:20,460 into whatever political ideologies, uh, the ruling powers in the education. 409 00:30:22,350 --> 00:30:23,370 Want to push. 410 00:30:23,370 --> 00:30:25,110 And right now it really is. 411 00:30:25,199 --> 00:30:28,080 The trans agenda is the LGBTQ plus agenda. 412 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:33,959 It is a progressive socialism anti-capitalism it is atheism. 413 00:30:34,379 --> 00:30:36,780 It is, uh, this idea of. 414 00:30:37,365 --> 00:30:42,465 Multiculturalism, not multiculturalism in, in a way of loving other cultures, 415 00:30:42,705 --> 00:30:47,355 but of saying that the ethics of every culture are equal when the ethics of 416 00:30:47,355 --> 00:30:52,185 every culture are not equal, there are ethics, and there are many cultural acts 417 00:30:52,425 --> 00:30:57,035 across the world and every culture that are unethical and there are cultures. 418 00:30:58,125 --> 00:31:00,405 Which are superior than others. 419 00:31:00,405 --> 00:31:04,335 And when I say superior, I mean, have better results within the community 420 00:31:04,335 --> 00:31:09,915 than people's lives and livelihood and social wellbeing and emotional stability. 421 00:31:10,725 --> 00:31:12,675 Health is better. 422 00:31:12,945 --> 00:31:17,235 Some cultures are better than others, but right now, what is being taught 423 00:31:18,915 --> 00:31:23,775 in upper education is that if you make any sort of statements like that, 424 00:31:24,075

loom segment. 447 00:32:47,220 --> 00:32:50,190 Welcome back to Weaver and Luma part of the show where we take ancient 448 00:32:50,195 --> 00:32:52,770 wisdom and we weave it in with our everyday lives so that we can own 449 00:32:52,770 --> 00:32:56,429 our future and weave our destiny. 450 00:32:56,429 --> 00:33:00,570 Well, today we've been talking about how we're all in a Sy. 451 00:33:02,790 --> 00:33:11,429 And the way to get out of the SYOP is to listen to a different voice, to not be 452 00:33:11,429 --> 00:33:19,560 party to the polarization and the rage that is produced by social media that is 453 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:28,260 produced by the, the political theater that is produced by activism, an activist, 454 00:33:28,409 --> 00:33:30,000 whether it's corporate or private. 455 00:33:30,585 --> 00:33:41,505 Or, uh, organizations that are looking for you to be enraged and fearful so 456 00:33:41,505 --> 00:33:47,385 that you act out of that fear so that you react against your neighbor rather 457 00:33:47,390 --> 00:33:51,615 than being a peacemaker, rather than being someone that reconciles people 458 00:33:51,615 --> 00:33:58,065 to one another, the, the CYOP that we're in the, the entire globe is. 459 00:33:58,830 --> 00:34:03,150 Is a one of divide, divide, divide, not reconcile, reconcile, 460 00:34:03,150 --> 00:34:08,370 reconcile, not, not bless your neighbor, not befriend your enemy. 461 00:34:09,449 --> 00:34:10,230 It is divide. 462 00:34:11,850 --> 00:34:16,500 And in that there is financial gain and there are incentives 463 00:34:16,500 --> 00:34:17,429 that are in place to do that. 464 00:34:17,429 --> 00:34:20,159 So how do we get out? 465 00:34:20,159 --> 00:34:23,429 What is the, the ancient wisdom that we can pull on? 466 00:34:23,429 --> 00:34:31,830 Well, in the, in the scriptures, There is a, a tribe called the 467 00:34:31,830 --> 00:34:33,600 sons of Issachar or Issachar. 468 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:41,909 So Abraham had his son, Isaac and Ishmail and Isaac had his son, Jacob, 469 00:34:41,915 --> 00:34:46,080 who later was named, uh, Israel, Jacob. 470 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:47,500 He had. 471 00:34:48,150 --> 00:34:48,870 12 sons. 472 00:34:49,230 --> 00:34:54,600 One of them was Iscar and Iscar then goes on to become a, a tribe. 473 00:34:55,409 --> 00:35:03,240 And that tribe is described as men who have understanding of the times 474 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:10,140 and know what the nation ought to do, because they had understanding of the 475 00:35:10,140 --> 00:35:16,230 times that they lived in the answer for us is to have understanding. 476 00:35:17,174 --> 00:35:22,365 Of the times and the seasons that we live in and know how to act appropriately 477 00:35:22,694 --> 00:35:25,634 and know how to respond appropriately. 478 00:35:26,535 --> 00:35:32,384 There's a famous story of David and Goliath in the story of David and Goliath. 479 00:35:34,305 --> 00:35:38,384 Goliath was telling everyone what they should think of him. 480 00:35:40,185 --> 00:35:41,714 They, he was telling everyone I'm. 481 00:35:42,510 --> 00:35:43,830 I'm gonna destroy everyone. 482 00:35:43,830 --> 00:35:45,000 I'm a big, bad giant. 483 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:45,930 You can't beat me. 484 00:35:45,930 --> 00:35:48,000 You guys are all weak little shrimps. 485 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:49,620 I'm laughing at you. 486 00:35:49,620 --> 00:35:50,970 You guys are ridiculous. 487 00:35:51,690 --> 00:35:52,470 Everyone else. 488 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,420 They, they talked about the giant. 489 00:35:54,420 --> 00:35:55,980 Well, look at look how big the giant is. 490 00:35:56,490 --> 00:35:58,080 We're never, we're never gonna beat this giant. 491 00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:58,740 It's so big. 492 00:36:00,180 --> 00:36:01,350 We're just all doomed. 493 00:36:02,100 --> 00:36:02,760 We might as well. 494 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,380 We might as well just give up now. 495 00:36:04,770 --> 00:36:05,730 What are we gonna do? 496 00:36:08,070 --> 00:36:11,730 But David who defeated the giant decided I'm not gonna listen to the 497 00:36:11,730 --> 00:36:15,090 giant and I'm not gonna listen to what other people say about the giant. 498 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,330 I'm going to be a son of Iscar. 499 00:36:18,335 --> 00:36:26,160 I'm going to be one who listens to a different voice, a voice of 500 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,970 hope, a voice of faith of seeing things that you can't see with your 501 00:36:29,970 --> 00:36:33,000 natural eye and say in the midst of. 502 00:36:35,025 --> 00:36:40,005 Catastrophe in the midst of this hardship in the midst of facing this giant. 503 00:36:41,654 --> 00:36:44,445 I know that I can overcome. 504 00:36:44,805 --> 00:36:48,045 I know that God is with me, that God is with us, that we 505 00:36:48,045 --> 00:36:50,565 can overcome this right now. 506 00:36:52,065 --> 00:36:53,345 We're all looking at the giant. 507 00:36:54,165 --> 00:36:59,565 The giants in the world and in the land, whether it be China or Russia or the 508 00:36:59,774 --> 00:37:06,495 demise of America or the LGBTQ plus, or, or the climate catastrophe, what, whatever 509 00:37:06,495 --> 00:37:12,435 it is, it is easy to focus on the giant. 510 00:37:12,825 --> 00:37:20,325 It is easy to focus on the fear rather than tuning in to faith, 511 00:37:20,685 --> 00:37:23,355 to hope, to love, to reconcili. 512 00:37:24,615 --> 00:37:33,225 So go out this week and be a person in your community that listens 513 00:37:33,555 --> 00:37:35,535 and tunes into the spirit of God. 514 00:37:36,195 --> 00:37:40,815 And what the spirit of God says about circumstances with the spirit of God 515 00:37:41,025 --> 00:37:45,075 says about the giants in the land about the hardships in your life, 516 00:37:45,075 --> 00:37:50,595 whether it's in your personal life, focus on that believe in that, hold 517 00:37:50,595 --> 00:37:53,265 fast to that in hope and in faith. 518 00:37:53,910 --> 00:37:57,480 And you will be someone who indeed owns the future. 519 00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:58,680 Well,
