I can relate to this. I am also an attorney, working on defending docs against targeting by the medical board during covid (and still ongoing) and other 1st Amendment/constitutional cases related to covid and employment. Once you dive into this, there is no denying how deep the corruption and evil goes. But I can barely get my husband, a physician, to acknowledge or talk about this. He just looks at me with a blank stare, with no curiosity to learn more or research the data. I made him watch The Great Taking and most of Chris’ multi-part series (that was fun). He’s starting to acknowledge the issue but doesn’t seem too bothered by the unfairness and darkness of it all. On the other hand, I have trouble sleeping some nights thinking about it. The only thing I’ve heard and read that comes close to answering this conundrum has been Michael Nehls and his theory in The Indoctrinated Brain. With the behavior I see in friends and family, I think he’s correct-their brains are literally changed.
I had to research and write a thesis my senior year of law school – I chose propaganda and its impact in the creation and enforcement of a certain legal issue – and did a deep dive into brain physiology (Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television) and the propaganda of the time. I also traveled to Moscow, Russia to view the Soviet Propaganda Art exhibit, and did a ton of research into WWI and WIII wartime propaganda, both from the Allied point of view, and also Japanese, German, and Italian fascist propaganda; as well as Maoist propaganda during the Chinese Cultural Revolution. But now with “Nudge” theory, Big Tech’s constant monitoring of what shiny bells and whistles keep us focused, and more recently Michael Nehls expose on the Indoctrinated Brain, this world is in for a world of hurt if people don’t start UNPLUGGING and protecting their brains from nonstop propaganda.
I’m largely retired now, but my current “thing” is I write fiction (epic fantasy – GOT sized doorstoppers). I used to churn out 5,000 words a day regularly, but after Trump was elected the nonstop political screeching caused my creative well to gradually dry up. I also noticed a “fossilization” in other areas of creative problem solving – as if I’d dropped 20 IQ points. But at some point, my previous propaganda research kicked in, and I began to shelter my brain from malign propaganda. I believe the left-right-up-down instability is DELIBERATE so people don’t sit down in person to compare notes, look at where this is all leading, and step out of the way.
Insofar as your husband, keep at him. At least you got him to go through Chris’ deep dive, so at some point, those facts will come gurgling up from his subconscious – especially if you keep reminding him that his entire life savings is about to evaporate – and at some point hopefully he will GET IT.
Wow! This is great. Say more, please, any time!
I agree - the deep-hacking of Big Tech and the Deep State is beyond anything you could have studied about the quaint propaganda of the 1940’s.
It would be like studying old Bakelite rotary phones for clues about the functioning and social impact of an iPhone 15 loaded up with 6 heavily used social media apps.
I write to make a couple of suggestion for the upcoming webinar on the Great Taking.
First, would fine it helpful if you could give a couple of examples of how the financial crises might unfold to result in the Great Taking.
Second, I am interested in how publicly traded debt, T Bills and CDs are impacted by the great taking.
Armstrong is the best known scammer on the planet. Regarding his conferences, read here:
The World Economic Conference WEC
It’s basically a sales event for his other scams, Socrates subscription and books.
Good heavens, what a diatribe blog post written by an unknown person. . And it’s owned by Google? Sorry, but I don’t accept writing like this.
You make an interesting point: You don’t accept the views of known parties such as google and you don’t accept the views of unknown parties such as that research site.
Perhaps you want to explore the assessments of dozens of third parties with direct experience regarding the subject:

We are all unknown here so I think these accounts should at least qualify from your point of view. Or did I miss anything?
Michael Nehls did a fantastic job of explaining how the constant “propaganda small emergencies” overfill our ability to put IMPORTANT information into our short-term memory, but he didn’t really go into how being lulled into a fugue state by television / social media / scrolling on our phones allows propaganda to bypass the executive function of our brain and go directly into our subconscious memory as “true fact”. Repetition via artwork (i.e., “Uncle Sam wants YOU”) or repetition of a lie in a newspaper/magazine article or even audibly via radio / podcasting can also bypass the executive function, but television / social media are SUPREME mediums for mind control.
The “flickering” of a video screen as it builds an image happens to be the same baud rate as “hypnosis” brainwave patterns, which is why you can lose so many hours surfing social media and have no memory of the lost time. It creates an open brainwave state where they can tell you almost ANY lie, and your brain will accept it as “true” — UNLESS — you have some past trauma regarding the information they are trying to signal which triggers a fear/revulsion response and rejects the programming. For example, if they try to tell you snakes are good, but you once got bitten by a snake, your brain will kick that information out and you’ll “wake up” and say to yourself “these people are nuts.”
Jerry Mander warned about the research into this in his 1970’s book “Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television.” He was more concerned with television advertisers tricking you into buying shampoo or a new car, but the research, paired with “Nudge theory” is absolutely terrifying.
Another great documentary to watch, if you can find it, is “The Social Dilemma.” It’s geared for high school students to warn them how excess social media usage was designed to keep them glued to their screens instead of real life, but the actual programmers who created Facebook / Twitter / Google warn about how they regret creating this beast to be deliberately ADDICTIVE and the harms it is causing in society.
I haven’t thought about this books in a very long time. I read it back in the day. May have to fish it out again now. Thanks for the reminder
Would reading that book constitute Gerrymandering?
@russcr5187 I had the same thought, and laughed to myself. Glad you shared it
This can be applied to so many things in life, not just investments.
Thank you. I have pretty well stopped reading Martin’s blog as I find some of his news old news or a little too hysterical. I now just read Chris’ blog for updated news and others when I want more info on the biological aspects of the shot.
CAF disagrees with ‘best friend’ David.
Once in a while, extraordinary people are placed in an extraordinary time and given an extraordinary task. This is David Rogers Webb.
Noah, Moses, Jonah. If you are Christian, you would add St. John the Baptist and the 12 Apostles. We might also add Gandhi, Germans who fought the Nazis and the American founders. Often these leaders are quite reluctant and consider themselves completely wrong for the task. They appeal to God to choose someone else. This is good, because humility should always be your starting point. This is part of the test. But God knows best and will even place someone in the belly of a whale to accomplish His work.
Courage, integrity and altruism still exist. It gives me hope. Webb is a true leader, worth emulating. May God bless him, we are all indebted to him.
Good interview, thanks for posting. CAF did say that she didn’t agree with Webbs analysis, but not for the reasons I was hoping. My understanding is that she agreed with his claim that they could take all of our stocks, however, her concern is how they are actively taking our hard assets. Her POV: the great taking is already underway with physical assets…why sweat the paper assets, or something to this degree. I’d love input from those that interpreted her differently.
These creeps have learned nothing from the French Revolution. Webb is right to say the minions are being saved for dessert. It’s a good strategy to try to inform them of this.
How many of the strategies to avoid the great taking will involve the assistance of a lawyer or other financial professionals? Can most of it be done on one’s own?
Just saw that the DTCC would no longer allow the use of cryptocurrency ETFs as collateral. I don’t know all the details, and of course, the devil is in the details. It does raise the question of whether the various Bitcoin ETFs are thus safe from The Great Taking.
You have my vote.
