8 Ways the Global Elite Manipulate Our Perception of Reality - Links and Comment


In a previous article, I made the comment that information is everything, and this is true, I believe. However, there is one factor to this proposition which adds an extra dimension to the equation. This dimension is that of our human perception.


Our world and the information we perceive within it can be interpreted in countless ways. Depending upon our upbringing, habits, opinions, and skill of observation, our life experience can be perceived accordingly. Virtually any norm can be set depending upon how we were raised and how willing we are to question that which we were first taught. Whether these lessons came from our parents or the corporate establishment, they can be difficult to see beyond. This is why it is extremely important for us to learn the variety of distortions we have been conditioned to operate upon.

This list and digest of various distortions from Collective Evolution offers key insights into this concept of perceptual distortion. Afterward, I will make a few statements on some additional thoughts to these concepts.

Corporate Media Admits to Publishing Viral Fake News After Independent Media Busted Them

We are all free-thinkers. We hold the ability to form our own opinions, daydream, overthink, critically think, and even conjure up tales of adventure and loss using our creative minds. Our minds are separate from the Self, so even though the mind is essentially an illusion, it can be thought to represent a portion of our individuality.

Have you ever thought about how much of your thoughts are truly and authentically your own? The fact of the matter is that we are subject to propaganda, false advertising, and other methods of manipulating our thoughts and perceptions every day. For a long time, the elite have used different tools to influence our thoughts and actions, a tactic often referred to as frequency control.

Here are 8 ways the elite manipulate our perception of reality:


1. Mass Marketing

It’s practically impossible to escape mass marketing advertisements in North America now. Even if you live in a rural area, you’re bound to come across a giant McDonald’s sign eventually. We’re told what to eat, what clothes to wear, and even what pharmaceutical drugs to take through advertisements!

Wisdom Teachings with David Wilcock: Out with the Old and In with the Floating Cities - Further Disclosures, Plus an In-Depth Investigation into the Concept of 4th Density

Even though it’s illegal for Big Pharma to advertise drugs in other countries, it’s completely legal in North America. The advertisements are often misleading, overstating the benefits and completely omitting the risks or potential side effects (or simply putting them in tiny, illegible letters). The FDA has stepped in multiple times, sending pharmaceutical companies warning letters or even forcing them to take down their ads because they are false, misleading, and/or exaggerate the effects of their drugs (source). Whether it’s an ad for cancer drugs, over-the-counter meds, or even an ad targeted at parents for ADHD pills for their children, they’re often a form of false advertising.


Why do you think everyone seems to own the same things? Everyone wants the newest iPhone, the latest pair of Nikes, and more. We live in a consumeristic world, a fact that has become so blatantly obvious that North American teenagers are starting to look like clones of one another. This begs the question: How much of what you like to wear or eat is actually because you like it, and how much because you’re being told to like it?


2. Defining Social Norms

Who Controls the World? - The True Story behind Money and Media Manipulation with TED X - Video, Links and Extended Commentary

After graduating from high school, society encourages us to go to university, get a steady 9-5 job, get married, buy a house, have children, and save a ton of money for retirement. If these societal goals aren’t met, we’re deemed unsuccessful. We decide we want to get married before we’ve organically met the right person and we claim we want to have kids when we don’t even know ourselves yet. People seem to be more concerned about accomplishing these goals than actually living in the moment and enjoying life. Who was it that created this social timeline and why do we feel the need to follow it?

Married or single, gay or straight, rich or poor — these norms have created labels that we use to differentiate one another. We begin to identify ourselves using them, tying them to “who we are” when the answer to that question cannot be explained by these physical illusions. The elite has essentially forced Stockholm Syndrome onto society; we are so caught up in these norms that we don’t even realize we’re trapped and imprisoned by them, and we start to love them. The moment someone else deviates from the norm, we consider them “crazy,” when in reality they’ve just woken up!

All of the advertisements and systems in place encourage us to follow this path and idolize it. Don’t get me wrong — there’s nothing wrong with going to school, getting married, having kids, and working a lot. If you’re happy and fully connected to yourself and your surroundings, then clearly this works for you. But the increasing divorce and suicide rates suggest that perhaps these societal pressures aren’t working for everyone.


3. Classifying Information and Keeping Secrets

Keeping us in the dark is something that the elite is very skilled at, especially since many people don’t even know who “the elite” are (or the shadow government). Documents upon documents are kept classified, particularly UFO files and black budget programs.


A few years ago, Edward Snowden, a former intelligence contractor, leaked the very first documentation proving the existence of clandestine black budget operations (1) (programs that are extremely classified regarding technology, information, and more). In fiscal year 2013, a staggering $52.6 billion was set aside for black budget operations. Keep in mind that this is just the reported number; some evidence suggests this number is much higher. For example, Canada’s former Minister of National Defence, Paul Hellyer, said in 2008:

American Mind Control: The Cost of Secrecy Part 1 – Examining the Effects of Secrecy, Propaganda, and Organized, White-Collar Crime

It is ironic that the U.S. would begin a devastating war, allegedly in search of weapons of mass destruction when the most worrisome developments in this field are occurring in your own backyard. It is ironic that the U.S. should be fighting monstrously expensive wars allegedly to bring democracy to those countries, when it itself can no longer claim to be called a democracy when trillions, and I mean thousands of billions of dollars have been spent on projects which both congress and the commander in chief no nothing about. (2)

These projects are those that are carried out through the black budget. There are other government programs designed to keep inventions and information in the dark, such as the Invention Secrecy Act (you can read more about that in our CE article here).

The Pitfalls of Partial Disclosure - Examining the Process of Disclosure and the Reasons why a String of Half-Truths Just Won't Cut It

Even science cannot always be trusted when it comes to withholding and falsifying information, as a whopping 50% of scientific literature is estimated to be false. And this isn’t just random scientific studies; this includes peer-reviewed articles and government studies. For example, CDC whistleblower Dr. William Thompson publicly apologized for falsifying research, much of which was considered “pro-vaccine.” Years later, he came out admitting what he’d done, and confirming that the vaccine-autism link is very real (learn more in our CE article here).


4. Education

The modern education system is filled with propaganda that only benefits the elite. For example, many people grow up thinking that North America was founded by the British. In reality, when the Europeans took over America, it represented perhaps the greatest genocide in history. American anthropologist and ethnohistorian Henry F. Dobyns estimated that more than 100 million people inhabited the Americas prior to Europe’s arrival (source). Other scholars have estimated the number to be as low as 10 million, and everything in between. For example, William M. Denovan, Professor Emeritus of Geography at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, believes there were approximately 54 million inhabitants (source).

It’s no wonder that so many people feel the need to pursue further education past high school, since they don’t actually learn valuable skills otherwise. Children are taught to follow authority, conform, and memorize information as opposed to actually thinking and leading. The following video outlines the issue with modern day education:

Another example is the education provided in medical school. Doctors aren’t taught any sort of preventative measures and they’re barely informed on proper nutrition. The Rockefellers, who dominate pharmaceutical markets, have actually helped design medical school curriculum, not to better it, but rather to push the usage of more pharmaceuticals in order to raise their profits.


Pharmaceutical companies, rather than qualified and unbiased doctors, define a lot of the information that MDs are taught, and Big Pharma often influences medical professors and funds university programs. For example, 1,600 Harvard professors stated that they or a family member have ties to drug companies that could bias their teachings or research. The pharmaceutical industry donated more than $11.5 million to Harvard in 2008 for “research and continuing education classes.” Many Harvard students have expressed concern over this and it even made mainstream news when a student was belittled by his professor for asking about the side effects of a drug his professor was unlawfully promoting in class.

This has also been a prevalent issue within psychiatry. As Dr. Irwin Savodnik of UCLA explains, “The very vocabulary of psychiatry is now defined at all levels by the pharmaceutical industry.” This is partially because the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), the text most psychiatrists in the U.S. refer to to diagnose and treat their patients, is heavily biased toward using pharmaceutical drugs instead of therapy. Read more about this in our CE article here.


5. Fake News

It’s no secret that the elite control mainstream media (MSM). They orchestrated 9/11 to be reported as a “terrorist attack,” for election data to be falsified, and for us to be fed propaganda at all levels, especially when it comes to war. If you’re only watching MSM, you likely have no idea what’s actually going on in Syria, with Russia, or in regards to any foreign conflict or wars.

The CIA’s Operation MOCKINGBIRD is the government program referring to its interest and relations with MSM. MOCKINGBIRD stemmed from the CIA’s forerunner, the Office for Strategic Services (OSS, 1942-47), which, during World War II, created a working relationship with journalists and psychological warfare experts operating primarily in the European theatre.

This banned Saturday Night Live segment perfectly sums up how MSM is controlled and operated by the elite:


6. Entertainment Industry

A lot of what we buy, how we feel, and what we value is determined by the entertainment industry. Society tends to idolize celebrities, watching their every move on reality TV shows and in magazines and allowing them to inspire our choices, especially our buying habits. There’s a lot of strange elite and occult symbolism found in music videos and movies, which, if you’re interested in, you can read about on Vigilant Citizen. It’s even been speculated that Monarch Mind Control, an extension of the governmental program MK Ultra, has been used in Hollywood (read our CE article here).

Wisdom Teachings with David Wilcock - NASA’s Flying Saucer - From Scientific Breakthroughs to Entertainment Media Stunts


Not many people know this, but the CIA has an entire department dedicated to the entertainment industry. It’s run through the CIA’s Entertainment Industry Liaison Office, which collaborates in an advisory capacity with filmmakers. The CIA doesn’t just offer guidance to filmmakers, it even offers money. In 1950, the agency bought the rights to George Orwell’s Animal Farm and then funded the 1954 British animated version of the film. Its involvement had long been rumoured, but only in the past decade have those rumours been substantiated. The link between Hollywood and the CIA isn’t something new (you can read more about that in our CE article on whistleblower Roseanne Barr here).


7. Food

Tons of people over-eat, indulging in foods that are terrible for our bodies and are extremely low frequency. Food is designed to energize us; it should be benefiting our health, not cutting years off our lives. This begs the question: Are we eating foods that are unhealthy because we like the taste or because we’ve been manipulated into doing so? We are surrounded by advertisements for food (most of which is terrible for us), and food has shifted from being a means of sustenance to a global industry.

Wisdom Teachings with David Wilcock: Out with the Old and In with the Floating Cities - Further Disclosures, Plus an In-Depth Investigation into the Concept of 4th Density

Corporations play a significant role in defining what’s healthy and what should be considered legal or illegal in regards to the food industry. For example, the USDA Food Guide Pyramid states you should eat 2-3 servings of milk, yogurt, and cheese, despite the fact that only 75% of people can actually digest milk properly, as well as 2-3 servings of meat, poultry, fish, dry beans, eggs, and nuts per day. Walter Willett of the Department of Nutrition at Harvard University states that “individuals can be very healthy with no dairy consumption at all,” and numerous studies have proven that meat consumption can cause cancer, heart disease, obesity, and many more health complications. However, according to the USDA guidelines, that’s incorrect. So, where did the disconnect occur between the government and science?

Well, the government has heavy ties to the dairy industry, as the government has helped food providers become more dairy-based, and implemented milk education into school programs. Check out this video that elaborates on the government’s ties to the dairy industry here.

The USDA has heavy ties to many advertisements and campaigns encouraging consumers to purchase meat. The U.S. government spends $38 billion annually to subsidize the meat and dairy industries, in comparison to only 0.04% of that on fruits and vegetables. If the government didn’t benefit from meat and dairy sales, our recommended intake of animal products would look significantly different.

These areas of perceptual distortion were actually the topic of a conversation I had not too long ago. The subject of discussion was the ways in which the global Cabal has largely taken over various institutions in world society and has largely contorted these to their own advantage. These institutions have affected our lives since birth and have largely shaped our perceptions of what life is and should be.

There are many lists of these distortive effects, but I have seen very few of these lists digest one particular area which I believe should be considered. This is the area of orthodox religion.



We may realize that the various religions of the world have their own source of history and wisdom upon which we might expand our knowledge base. We can even gain greater understanding of how we ourselves interact with the people around us, the planet, and the cosmos on a macroscopic level. There is much to learn from the collection of religious texts from past millennia. However, to take any one of these texts for face value has been found to be very unwise.

The major snare of religious belief systems is that they can easily be taken as absolute, unquestionable fact. Practitioners and groups of these faiths can become so ensnared by their beliefs that these beliefs trump every other inclination any healthy being might have. Even areas of common sensible action can be neglected in the face of religious dogma.


In various faiths, it is absolutely necessary to kill those of one's own family if they do not adhere to set religious standards. This practice of honor killings is just one of countless acts of religious extremism which have been practiced over the centuries. This has been practiced in ancient Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and various sects of these major world religions.

It seems that overall, religious faiths have a way of combining reliable wisdom with grossly unreliable distortion and unhealthy social control mechanisms. Those who practice these religious faiths may consider it heresy to view their respective texts as anything but divinely inspired and perfect. However, when we consider the origin of these various texts outside of religious belief systems, we may gain a different perspective on the matter.

Consider for a moment, the distribution of religious texts over the centuries. We have seen the distribution of the Bible, the Quran, the Tanach, and the various sects thereof. All of these are heralded as sacred to their various faiths. However, there is one important aspect of these texts we must consider.

Illuminating the Templars and the Maltese Cross – Surprising Correlations between the Photon and Numerous Historical Symbols

These texts have a few concerning elements to them. Let's consider the economic climate of society during which these texts were first mass-produced. We have the invention of the printing press between 1440 and 1450 A.D., after many of these religious texts were composed (under questionable circumstances). Just as in our current society, at that time, an established printer was seen as a hot commodity by the wealthy elite. Naturally, various financial interests coveted the press as a vital resource for advertising and promoting their own societal ideals.


As printers became more and more efficient the cost of operations decreased. We may note that the Christian Bible was the first book ever printed and mass-produced, translated into multiple different languages and distributed throughout the world. So what we wind up with is a large, effluent economic entity overseeing the mass production of this and various other religious texts throughout the entire economic world. Does this situation sound familiar? It should.

The Succession of the Templars – Ancient Wisdom, Myth, and Distortion – Navigating the Journey from History to Modern Times

The above situation is virtually identical to the one we have today. We have questionable economic interests controlling the distribution of virtually all information to a large portion of the economic world. These interests are effluent and care little about much more than their own profit and prosperity. What we begin to realize is that our current situation and that of the history of the above example is that corporate media is not only a modern phenomenon. In fact, for a large part, the Bible, the Quran, and many other religious texts are in their own way, corporate media. They are compromised sources of distorted information distributed with a purpose of maintaining control over large populations of followers. 

Just as in modern corporate media, there is valuable information hidden within these religious texts. However, this value is combined with the distortion of social control mechanisms designed to keep populations subservient to corporate interests while providing them attractive nuggets of valuable truth. Consequently, any truth must be sifted out, and separated from the distortions we find within the texts. (This principle as actually hidden within many religious texts in plane sight.)

The NDAA Legalizes the Use of Propaganda on United States Citizens - Commentary and Links, Plus an Interview with Dr. Udo Ulfkotte

Any avenue of studywhether religious or any of the other institutions discussed above—can offer a valuable starting point for the average seeker of truth. However, if any of these institutions are taken as absolute, solitary sources of unquestionable fact, we can end up being ensnared by them and create the exact societal condition which the global elite desire most from us: complacency and apathetic unconsciousness. We can do much better than this, I think.
