Episode 416: Exposing The Matrix Part 2: Entertainment and Cultural Programming

0:01Speaker 1:The following presentation Isndel Marvis Studio's production.

0:39Speaker 2:Welcome back to the Secrets from around the World. It's time for another edition of the Fact Hunter podcast. As we record on this Tuesday, May nineteenth, twenty twenty six. I hope everybody had a great weekend and hoping the weather's cooler where you're at. I think it's supposed to hit ninety seven. We went out about seven am, worked till nine thirty, and I think I lost thirty five pounds of sweat. It's just so hot, so humid, and of course my wife looks up into the sky and points, and sure enough, they are spraying us like nobody's business.

1:20Speaker 3:Now.

1:20Speaker 2:What I have found is that they normally spread the day prior to a weather change, and I think that amplifies the fronts that are coming in coming out tomorrow night. We have a cold front coming in. It has been mid nineties Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday through Sunday. We're not even going to hit Sunday, So I think whatever it is they're spraying, obviously they wanted to get into the rain to bring it down into the ground, but also to amplify the weather and the damage it does. So that's my thought for the day before we get into it.

1:59Speaker 2:A couple of notes. Number One, thank you all. We just eclipsed today. On this May nineteenth, we eclipsed six million downloads, So thank you all. Many of you have been along for the ride since twenty twenty God bless you, and for those of you just hopping on the bus, welcome aboard. This Thursday night, May the twenty first, we're going to have a special presentation. As most of you know, every Thursday night at eight pm, we simulcast our radio program, Foundations in Faith on WRMI Radio Miami International fifty nine to fifty, and we also air it on Foundations in Faith Radio, which is our website, Foundations infaith dot net.

2:46Speaker 2:This Thursday night's thirty minute message is going to also be dropped on the podcasts because it's something that's been on my heart for about a year now. And if you recall, if you listen to both podcasts, when I took a hiatus last August of twenty twenty five, the last broadcast, I mentioned that the biggest problem within the church right now, and there are many of them, and listen, I get it. George is not the end all, be all, But I recognize, someone who has spent a lot of time in a lot of different churches, that dispensationalism is one of the greatest dangers to Christians today. And when I signed off that August night, I turned a lot of my attention to doing some investigating and as I mentioned before, the Lord kind of called on me to bring this out into the world. And yes it's been mentioned before. There have been YouTube channels dedicated to it and books written. So this Thursday's Substack will be substantially long and explaining the fallacies and exposing dispensationalism and the people behind it, and the college institutes behind it, and the entities behind it, the money behind it. And this Thursday,

4:09Speaker 2:that thirty minute radio show will be detailing dispensationalism and the new book that comes out this Thursday the same time exposing dispensationalism. It's a lot bigger chunk than our first book, Foundations in Faith. This is about two hundred and ten pages, very detailed, complete chapters on c. I. Schofield, Darby and the Moody Bible College, Dallas Bible College, and on and on and on and again. This isn't really this is not a conspiracy theory book. This is all We cite everything, we list the applicable Bible versus. It is pretty thoroughly written, and it's not a lot of you know, just this is what I think. You know, for the first eighteen hundred and fifty years, the followers of Christ believed one way, and then Darby and Scofield come along and said, now you've had it wrong all along, and I'm going to expose what I believe again is one of the greatest if you want to call it a heresy amongst the church, whether it's the rapture or this this false belief into the geopolitical state of Israel, which you know, less than two percent of the people within those borders are even followers of Christ. And it's

5:35Speaker 2:a very detailed book, and all of that drops on Thursday, so look out for that. One more note before we get into today's main topics, and that is if you remember back, I think it was around Christmas time I dropped a substack about cars for kids. Pardon me, and you know everybody has heard that jingle if you listen to the radio, you know eight seven seven Cars for Kids. Kaars. Now you're like, thanks, George, I'm not going to be able to get that out of my head for the next week. But it was the catchy jingle, and everybody thought it was just this thing that you know, you donate yr old cars and it went to help out children.

6:16Speaker 2:And I wrote in my sub stack many many months ago that nothing could be further from the truth. Most of that went to the Jewish community in New Jersey, and much of that money gets funneled straight into Israel. And as much as we like to kind of shake our heads at the people of California, right that, they always say California is a state full of fruits and nuts, but you know, every now and then they come through and that jingle. Thanks to a ruling just the other day, their radio ads will no longer be broadcast in the state of California. The Orange County judge found charity violated false advertising laws. In this case stems from a lawsuit in twenty twenty one. A man sued the charities organization which I mentioned in the sub stack, who Rat Incorporated, when he discovered the money from the car he donated was not going to underprivileged children in California instead. Again, as I mentioned, the money goes to this Orthodox Jewish program in New York and New Jersey that sends teenagers to trips to Israel with their families. Cars for kids.

7:39Speaker 2:Ads will be banned in California until there's an audible disclosure of the charity's religious affiliation, the region of where the money goes, and a more accurate age range of the recipient. So big shout out to California for standing up to this deception. Now, you guys know that I spend a ton of time researching nine nineties and that is just one. That is just one nonprofit organization that is misrepresenting what the money goes to what it actually goes to. In many cases that money is either just going to conflated salaries within people in the organization. I have seen seven million dollar figures associated to someone's paycheck a CEO of a nonprofit. So you think about that.

8:37Speaker 2:You know, whether it's the American Heart Association. You know there's somebody out there as a chat out there ringing a bell and it tugs at your heart. You throw some cash in the old bucket. The first seven million dollars is going to one person's paycheck. And that's the reality of nonprofits. You need to be very aware and understanding where all of this money is indeed going to. So there you go, big win for the people of California and exposing the cards, cars for kids scam. So as you know, whether it be in the news or social media, that they keep pushing the ebola and all these different viruses and trying to remind people about how the World Health Organization you know, should still you know, have the last say in your freedoms. And for those of you who don't know the World Health Organization old Ted Rose, their director just announced that they successfully conducted a global pandemic simulation eerily similar to event to a one Take a listen.

9:50Speaker 4:We established the w JO Bio Hub here in Switzerland, again as Federal Counselors said, which has now shared one hundred and sixty five samples and fieves. To enhance emergency workforce capacity, we established the Global Health Emergency Code, which recently ran its second simulation exercise involving six hundred health emergency experts and twenty five partner organizations from twenty six countries and territories and six We recognize that we needed to reform the governance of global health security to bring everything together into a cohesive whole.

10:30Speaker 2:And again, as you know, longtime listeners, it's always under the guise of your security. And again, if you're willing to give up a little bit of your freedoms for a little bit of security, you deserve neither. This is from the World Health Organization's website. The who wrapped up Exercise Polaris two a two day high level simulation exercise based around an outbreak of fictional new bacterium spreading across the world, bringing together twenty six countries territories, six hundred health emergency experts, and over twenty five partners. And yes, one of those partners is the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

11:10Speaker 2:I believe now they're just the Gates Foundation. The exercise, which took place on the April twenty second and twenty third, just three weeks ago, allowed countries to test their preparedness for pandemics and other major health emergencies, including activating their emergency workforce structures, information flow and coordination with each other. Building on the secon pardon me. Building on the success of Polaris one, which was held in April of twenty twenty five, which centered on a fictional virus. Each country activated its emergency coordination structure and worked under real life conditions to share information, align policies, and surge their workforce.

11:55Speaker 2:Quote Exercise Polaris two showed what is possible when we act together. It demonstrated the global cooperation is not optional, it's essential. Again, it is possible when we act together. Demonstrated that global cooperation is not optional. And then again was ted roast the purpose of the Global Health Emergency Corps coordination across the emergency workforce, building trust, strengthening connections, and working one across borders. So again, just like COVID, you had the one in twenty eighteen, which you know the name of that exercise escapes me right now, sham on me. Was it September of twenty nineteen or October of twenty nineteen when they had event to one and to a one was a big number, the Jesuit number. Right.

12:53Speaker 2:We landed on the moon on the two hundred first day of the year of July twentieth, nineteen sixty nine. We landed on the moon. That's the quotes I have not but the the coin in the conspiracy jar into my new mixer. Yet I've got to do that. But exercise polaris two. So all of these things, are they going to try to drop the hammer again in the fall? One doesn't know. But as we say, keep your head on a swivel. Now, we talk about things happening for a certain reason in a certain time. For generations, Americans were taught that constitutional rights stood as permanent barriers against government overreach, especially when fear and crisis swept across the nation.

13:44Speaker 2:But six years ago, in the COVID era, it really exposed just how fragile many of those assumptions truly were. Now this recent, if you're not aware, a ninth Circuit medical mandate case has opened a lot of eye. It came after years of unprecedented pressure campaigns, emergency declarations and censorship systems, and the coordinated mediate narratives and these corporate government partnerships that transformed everyday life. Almost overnight, millions of Americans watched businesses collapse while giant corporations flourished. Churches were shut down, while casinos and strip clubs and and you know, you know the place where you get your beer, Well, I can't even think of the place where you get your beer, and you know, and again it varies in every state, but it's just, you know, all these politically favored industries remained open. Citizens were told where they could stand, how many family members could gather together, and the horrible things like how many people could attend funerals. And I've mentioned before many cases while my wife was working at the hospital, she was the person next to that person

15:10Speaker 2:passing away instead of a family member, all because of an emergency. There's no greater emergency than being able to say goodbye to your loved one. In many cases, fifty sixty years, you know, people were told how and where they could stand and what they had to where when they entered a building, you know, and you know Mother's Day of twenty twenty, make sure your chairs are six feet apart. They closed down schools and trust the science and follow the experts and do your part. But behind all of those slogans was an unmistakable message dissent itself had become unacceptable. Doctors who questioned that policy were fired, and so where nurses asked my wife. Scientists who challenged the lockdown effectiveness were marginalized and in many cases lost their job. Citizens who refused mandates were labeled selfish, dangerous, You're going to kill grandma, conspiracy theorist YouTubers. Entire populations were conditioned to view compliance not merely as a civic duty, but as a moral virtue. Now, this ninth circuit case, involving the Los Angeles Unified School District became one of the most watched legal battles because it touched the nerve

16:31Speaker 2:center of the entire national debate, and at the heart of the lawsuit was a simple but explosive question, can the government compel medical treatment as a condition of employment when the treatment itself does not fully prevent transmission? As you all remember, when they started pushing the vaccines, it was one hundred percent effective. If you got that job, you weren't going to get sick. Well what happened, Well, the people who got the job were the ones who get the sick most often, even to this day, and of course we know about all the cardiac events. But that question was important because Americans were repeatedly told that the mandates existed primarily to protect others. Yet as time passed, it became increasingly obvious that vaccinated individuals could still contract COVID, still spread COVID and still participate in outbreaks, and suddenly this moral framework that justified coercion began to crack. A three judge panel in the Ninth Circuit briefly acknowledged this reality and language that electrified critics of the mandates. The judges suggested that these vaccines they were different from the

17:47Speaker 2:traditional sterilizing vaccines that were historically upheld by courts because they didn't completely stop transmission. For many Americans. This was the first moment a major federal court appeared willing to question the legal assumptions that was underlying years of emergency policy. And ma'am, that reaction was something to see, wasn't it. Independent media exploded with headlines claiming the mandate system was collapsing. You had constitutional scholars debating whether the century old precedent of Jacobsen versus Massachusetts. We've talked about that. That was the nineteen oh five Supreme Court case that is repeatedly used to justify vaccine mandates. It had finally met its limit, and you had citizens, a lot of soldiers and people lost their careers, pensions, educational opportunities, and reputations. They felt vindicated.

18:52Speaker 2:But then came the reversal that revealed how institutional power often usually responds when foundational authority appears threatened, and the full Ninth Court stepped in vacated the earlier opinion. They rehearsed the case, and ultimately upheld the mandate. The court ruled that government authorities only needed a rational basis for the policy. In other words, once again, officials do not need to prove effectiveness. They only needed to show that there was some reasonable public health justification behind the requirement.

19:39Speaker 2:So what am I saying to you with this new global pandemic simulation similar to event to A one to this Ninth Court, or I should say the Ninth Circuit case out of LA that is now giving the power back to the government. That should be a wake up call for many Americans because once courts established that constitutional liberties that they can be overridden under broad emergency standards. Once again, just like the Patriot Act and everything else the country has done, the boundaries will become increasingly difficult to define. Which is what they want They make the lines, what qualifies as emergency? Who is the adjudicator of what is an emergency? Who determines when the emergency ends. What happens when corporate interests, pharmaceutical influence, and political agendas and media coordination all aligned behind a single narrative, That's the question.

20:47Speaker 2:Remember during COVID, we witnessed an extraordinary merger between government agencies technology technology companies, which I mean, look at the relationship with the government and and these tech companies. Now it's scary. Pharmaceutical giants, media organizations, social media companies, coordinated censorship policies. We've been running free for the last couple of years. We're about to get the hammer trapped on us again. Right, we got to boot for misinformation. We were banned from platforms for discussing laboratory leak theories or you know, alternative medical assertations and you know those type of germ theory in itself. Right, you get booted. I remember again getting that email from PayPal. It was really surreal, little old Georgia and Delaware getting a letter from PayPal saying you're done, We are done with you. You violated our terms. You are done. Your personal account is gone.

21:51Speaker 2:You are to remove PayPal from our website immediately. And it's just next level nineteen eighty four, Big brother, you know, and again we've mentioned many times one of the sole purposes of the government to exist is to protect us and to ensure that the corporate conglomerate doesn't get so big that it becomes a controlling entity in itself, like Amazon, like Blackgrock, like Vanguard, like what's going on before our very eye. And again that's why this Ninth Circuit ruling resonates far beyond California. It represents something far larger than a vaccine case. It is symbolizing the growing conflict between centralized authority and individual liberty. Again, if you do not have physical autonomy, you do not have freedom in any way, shape or form. So again, the final outcome of the Ninth Circuit medical mandate case was that the full Court upheld the LA Unified School District COVID nineteen a vaccine mandate, ruling that the policy was constitutional under rational basis review an earlier panel opinion that questioned the mandate because the vaccines did not fully stop transmission, was vacated and no

23:18Speaker 2:longer carries legal authority. In the end, the court determined that the government officials only needed a reasonable public health justification for the mandate, not proof of effectiveness. So yes, in this final ruling, the government side prevailed. The Ninth Circuit ultimately upheld the mandate and ruled that the school district had sufficial Sufficial is a new word for you, sufficient legal authority to require the COVID nineteen vaccine for employees under existing constitutional standards. So that is a huge loss for our civil liberties. And it once again just seems like they're setting up for the next thing. And listen, brothers and sisters, when they drop the hammer next time, there's not going to be any backing off. There's not going to be any exemption letters because it's going to be so dangerous. It's going to be the biggest, greatest threat to humanity, and they will bring in the beast system and that's where the dispensational problem becomes a big issue.

24:34Speaker 2:And if you're not sure what that means, I hope you'll take the time to listen Thursday night and even consider picking up the book. Now, as you guys know, exposing the matrix, we're on part two, which we touched on lightly in the introduction, right, That's why I wanted to kind of knock that out, and we're going to go into bigger and better things. But in this world we live in today, it plays such a huge part of the conditioning and psychological framework of this world to get people to accept certain narratives. And let's just jump into it part two of exposing the matrix. And again we're talking about entertainment and cultural programming. For generations, people have defined entertainment by saying the same thing. It's just a movie, it's just music, it's just television, it's just harmless fun. But I'll tell you modern entertainment is no longer merely entertainment. And I'm not sure exactly when that switch happened. Obviously, we talked about in the introduction episode on Thursday that Disney was a part of the propaganda during World War Two, so you know, probably into the thirties.

25:47Speaker 2:After World the Worlds which we did a podcast on years ago, and when they realized how a science fiction broadcast via radio got like seven million people to call emergency services, They're like, Wow, this radio and TV thing we can really shape some minds with. And they understood. And again, the television the radio of the Internet is one of the most powerful behavioral conditioning systems that have ever been created. And remember, Hollywood doesn't simply reflect culture.

26:19Speaker 2:It shapes culture, It shapes morality, right, language, fashion. If you try to inject your biblical beliefs into modern day society, it's labeled as hate speech. So if you think it's not working, you're wrong. The average child today listen to this, spends thousands of hours absorbing messages from screens before reaching adulthood. I say again, the average child today spends thousands of hours absorbing messages from screens before reaching adulthood. And again, these messages are rarely neutral. So over time, the symbolism embedded throughout the modern entertainment industry has become impossible to ignore.

27:12Speaker 2:You look at occult imagery, ritualistic themes, inversion symbolism, the mockery of Christianity, obsession with hidden knowledge, the glorification of rebellion, and the fascination with darkness now appear constantly across films, music videos, award shows, a streaming series, and celebrity culture, which, to me, even as a younger guy, was really weird. A celebrity culture, but what once would have shocked audiences is now normalized. You play some of these movies from today back in the fifties, they would have gone into the movie booth and burned the film. Symbols tied historically to secret societies, ancient mystery religions, or anti crew Christian themes are repeatedly displayed in mainstream media until the people stop questioning them altogether. Remember, repetition creates familiarity, and familiarity lowers resistance. But perhaps nowhere is the moral collapse more visible than in the sexualization of children. What previous generations would have recognized immediately as dangerous and exploitive is now defended as progressive or art or inclusive, you know those type of things. And these major entertainment corporations are increasingly

28:44Speaker 2:pushing content that introduce children to sexual themes at younger and younger ages. While critics are mocked as outdated, intolerant, or fearful, the public is told that innocence itself is somehow old fashioned. Companies like Walt Disney's We mentioned right, they faced enormous backlash in recent years. Netflix Right, they sparked outrage over what's it called cuties, and of course people got outraged. They went on Twitter and Facebook and so I'm done with them, And you know, a month or two goes by and they're like, oh, man, I really would like to watch Breaking Bad or Seinfeld or something, and they go back. But it's just the celebrity culture.

29:28Speaker 2:What I've noticed now a lot of these celebrities, and I'm not sure if it's the deal with the devil, but they're so proud when their child comes out as transgender. I think one famous basketball player might have played for the Heat. I think his name is Dwayne Wade. His son turned into a total fruitcake and like is walking around as a female now. And when you see these things and people brag about it. The same with Trump when he bragged about his daughter converting to Judaism, I'd be devastated. It's rebellion against God in both cases. Turn your back on Jesus Christ, what are you doing? It's because people are more worried about offending another human being than being worried about offending your own creator. What's wrong with you? These themes are being directly pushed into spaces and consumed by younger audience through platforms like TikTok and Instagram, and that barrier that once existed between childhood and adult, like you really had to go out of your way to get an adult magazine. Back in the day, we didn't have phones where you could look at those things.

30:43Speaker 2:It's just again we talk about the duality of good and evil in a device. Right now, I'm talking to people all around the world through my podcast. It's amazing to be able to do this. But also, you know people who are weak, and you know they consume pornography all throughout the day on their phone, and that is keeping them from bearing fruit. Now even more alarming is aggressively how these trends are defended by media organizations, even your Fox News. You know they're going to say trans and all of these things, celebrity activists, corporate advertisers. Instead of asking whether children are being exposed to harmful material too early, that conversation is often reframed to portray concerned parents as the threat. That's how the inversion is that that person that comes in, you know, saying my child will not get a vaccine, he's the bad guy. That guy says, I will not let my child attend a school where you know, a quote unquote trans child can choose what bathroom they go into. He's the bad guy.

31:52Speaker 2:Instead of dealing with the mental illness of that child and protecting our children. Bible says it would be better if a millstone was tied around your neck and you're thrown in the ocean than to harm one of his children. But people are afraid because of the matrix. They don't want to lose their job. Everything is that we're just doing my job.

32:17Speaker 5:Ma'am.

32:20Speaker 2:If your paycheck is more important to you than protecting a child, I ask that you reflect on your choice of employment. Children are highly impressionable. Entertainment shapes imagination long before critical thinking fully develops. That is why corporations spend billions with a bee. They study attention spans, emotional responses, color psychology, music cues, dopamine triggers, and algorithmic engagement. The entire industries are built around capturing the minds of the young because whatever shapes children's worldview shapes the future culture itself.

33:08Speaker 2:And many parents still believe they are simply handing their children harmless entertainment. What is often being delivered instead is a gradual conditioning, conditioning toward moral relativism, conditioning toward hyper sexualization, conditioning toward narcissism, rebellion, materialism, occult fascination, identity confusion, the me me, I want to be liked, don't have children focus on you. The childbirth rate at it's lowest since who knows when it seems like the births have just stopped.

33:49Speaker 2:Now whether I'm not going to get into that right now, not always through direct instruction, but through constant exposure, through humor, repetition, through emotional attachment to characters and celebrities. People trust, right, And it's not so much Hollywood anymore, right, it's mister Beast and anime has become a big part of the culture. But what is frightening is not merely what children are seeing. It's how normalized all of this has become. Entire generations are growing up immersed in digital entertainment that can, pardon me, continuously reshapes values while parents, churches, and schools struggle to keep up. And once the culture loses the ability to protect innocence, it begins losing something far more important than entertainment standards. It begins losing its moral foundation entirely. And there was a time when a cult, symbolism and media was subtle. Now that we're awake, we can go back and look at those things even through eighties movies hidden beneath the surface. We're only a handful of people noticed.

35:00Speaker 2:It's not the case anymore again. With COVID, they overplayed their hand, and now they just don't hide anymore, because modern entertainment now replaces ritualistic imagery, satanic esthetics, and inverted religious symbolism and occult themes directly in front of an audience that is open and done repeatedly. Look at the award shows, right, they resemble ritual performances. The music I mean, especially those music award shows right, My goodness, music videos, the ones that are still out there, they are filled with all seeing eyes. Right, it's on the back of your dollar, bill horned imagery, checkerboard floors, mock coronations, spiritual inversion, and references to enlightenment through rebellion. What once existed on the fringes has moved directly into the mainstream, and audiences have become so desensitized that many barely notice anymore. Artists like Madonna spent decades deliberately blending Catholicism and sexual provocation and occult symbolism to provoke cultural boundaries. Lady Gaga built an entire esthetic around ritualistic visuals, identity transformation, and avant

36:23Speaker 2:garde symbolism that many viewers interpreted as intentionally esoteric. You have that weirdo Sam Smith Doja Cat Little nas X that they have put just straight up satanic and demonic imagery and not underground on some back channel YouTube video. But we're talking prime time, mainstream entertainment, and these events are viewed by millions. And look, we all know that that industry, the music industry, they're all about shocked value, right. What shock the audiences today, Well, it becomes normalized tomorrow.

37:10Speaker 2:You don't hear Back in the eighties, believe it or not, parents would be up in arms about the rock industry. And I was that teenager like come on, bro, it's just and then you look back like, oh wow, yeah, maybe having Motley Cruf shout at the devil in my bedroom wasn't a great idea, right, But that's important to understand what shocks audiences today becomes normalized tomorrow. Isn't that true? When was the last time you saw an outraged person?

37:42Speaker 2:And I'm not talking about you know, some blue haired person in Portland yelling at a church goer. I'm talking about when was the last time a parent stood up to this sexualization of children or the abortion or made and said, we need to stop that. In the name of Jesus Christ, we need to stop that. You know, when you think about it, what once would have ended careers in many cases is now considered and you can even say celebrated as bold creativity. Right, And it's all about we talk about boiling the frog and gradual desensitization.

38:29Speaker 2:Once our society loses the ability to recognize darkness, anything can be packaged as entertainment. And at the same time, celebrity culture has evolved into something far beyond admorization, admiration pardon me. In many cases it resembles modern idolatry. Think about it. Celebrities are treated like prophets, royalty activists. Did you see that clip of Prince Charles the other day talking about up bringing in you know, the technology age, sitting on his chair with his crown and his robe like like some kind of moron. There's only one King Powell, Charles, that's all you are. You're Charles, and uh, you know, I'm not bend in a knee for any man. Care for your call yourself the pope or you call yourself a king. You know, when Jesus comes, then every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess. I try to get out of those things. Oh that's King Charles. No, that's that's Charles. He runs this. Uh, he runs England over there in Canada and Australia. And yeah, but we have to wake up and call things what they are because again you think about that, once our society loses the ability to recognize darkness, anything can be package is

40:00Speaker 2:entertainment and hello, that's where we're at today. And at the same time, celebrity culture has evolved again far beyond this admiration. You know, millions follow these people's political opinions, social beliefs, fashion choices, but they won't do the research. And look, let's keep it real. There's a lot of people who go to church and will listen to the pastor and take everything that pastor says as one gold correct and they won't open their Bible. And I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but that brings up this sensationalism once again. If you pick up your Bible and read it, you'll know it is not a thing.

40:50Speaker 2:Remember back in the day platforms like MTV helped pioneer the fusion of music, imagery, rebellion, right, the billy idol, the white wedding video, sexuality, celebrity worship that started decades ago. But you know, social media really accelerated the phenomenon into something previous generations could scarcely imagine. Now, celebrities come out of nowhere and like, who is this guy? He's got Oh, he's got ten million followers? Right, and they are They interact with your child continuously through through smartphones and live streams and viral clips and interviews and algorithmic promotion. And the result is a culture where fame itself becomes a form of authority, regardless of wisdom, morality, or truth. And then there's the controversial subject of what we all call predictive programming. That is, entertainment sometimes introduces concepts, imagery, technologies, and even social shifts into public consciousness before they emerge prominently in real life, whether every example is intentional or not.

42:10Speaker 2:People increasingly notice eerie parallels between films, television, and then later societal developments, movies depicting surveillance states, digital dependency, scamdemics, social collapse, artificial intelligence, biometric tracking and authoritarian systems are now even to the normist of norms are appairing bardon me, appearing far less like fantasy and more like previews of where modern society is headed, whether it be nineteen eighty four or Minority Report or insert credit score movie here, the one with Chris Pratt that came out in January. Right, You're guilty until innocent, presumed innocent. When you look Warner Brothers, Disney, all these major streaming platforms, they are frequently normalizing ideas that once would have seen extreme or dystopian. Remember, the public absorbs these concepts emotionally through storytelling, long before they arrived politically or culturally. Entertainment softens resistance. It acclaims populations psychologically to future possibilities by presenting them as fiction. And it was the same post World War Two in the fifties with Outer Space and you know Space Odyssey two

43:44Speaker 2:thousand and one that came out in sixty eight, a year before the Moon landing. All of the comic books from that time was to prepare your mind to believe that we could get on a rocket, land on the moon, play golf, get back in the rocket, come back home all the while the Earth is spinning and we're traveling at hundreds of thousands of miles, and this and that. It's nonsense, and it's all meant. You're right, that's what they tell you. That the earth is thirteen fourteen billion years old. You're just a spec in a long time and your forefathers right, we're from evolution, and all of these things are to trivialize the creator. It's all done intentionally, all of it. And music, you know, they played a huge part of it as well. Record labels and entertainment corporations.

44:45Speaker 2:They all understand that music bypasses intellectual defenses and it speaks subconsciously to your emotion, your identity, and your behavior. And the next thing, you know, you know, after singing and chanting these things, you realize you're self worshiping. You have the urge for a drink or a smoke because the guy in the music video look cool doing it. It is darkness that is no longer hidden. You have these evil executives at major labels such as Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment, and Warner Music Group. They possess enormous influence over what rises to cultural prominence. Not to insult anyone, but today's music is so bad, and I know, you know our future generation that music is so bad. They are intentionally making music terrible. But it's almost the mockery of it. When they have their meetings at the CFR or wherever around the world. At Oxford, right, they laugh.

45:53Speaker 2:Can you believe that this went number one? And people are singing along with it? It's all done intentionally. The algorithms, the playlists, the radio partnerships, and the amplification via social media and marketing campaigns. They control the message that dominates youth culture. And these are the people that are aiming to hurt the children. Okay, not not a lot of faith based songs on VH one, whatever thing is going on, right, I'm cooless as to what's on TV these days. But again I'm not saying that every single entertainment is part of some secret conspiracy that that comes full circle. The issue is the system itself, a machine that rewards shock, degeneracy, narcissism, and controversy because those things generate attention, profit, and emotional addiction.

47:05Speaker 2:Over time, entire populations become spiritually numb without even realizing it, and darkness becomes fashionable, moral boundaries dissolved, and entertainment slowly reshapes culture until people can no longer remember what normal even used to look like. And the rise of streaming culture fundamentally changed how humans consumed entertainment. Remember, previous generations had natural stopping points. Believe it or not, folks, the TV stations signed off it to a at night, maybe midnight, maybe two am. It would play the national anthem and sign off. We had family nights. We watched Happy Days and Lavern and surely take Together. From seven to eight, we only watched TV for a certain amount of time and then it was back outside to live life amongst other people. Even into the nineties, if you wanted to run a movie, you had to leave the house right And even in that in itself was really cool that the entire family would hop in the car. You go to a Blockbuster and pick up some of that healthy microwave popcorn, and you know, walk around and everybody would find a movie and get it. For a couple of days,

48:23Speaker 2:and man, the movie you wanted was out. You'd ask the guy beyond the counter, Hey, man, can you look in the return box and see if you can find you know, whatever movie and he'd go through and find it, yes, score. And even the hunt of going to find you know, listening to the radio and finding a new musician and going to the wall or Sam Goodie and trying to find that record. All that is gone now. And it's just the other thing is you don't own anything. They control what's available to you. That's why the books I talk about all the time. Again, I'm beating a lot of dead horses here today, and I apologize. It is so important to have physical copies of books. This book I wrote that comes out Thursday. I didn't even make it available on Kindle, which I know some people probably like that, but I think it's so important that people get some of these books into their hand physically to hold on to them so the words can't be changed.

49:23Speaker 2:So you know, chapter fifteen of Behold a Pale Horse can't be pulled from it. Very important, very important. Now you have millions spending entire evenings, weekends, sometimes their entire lives, escaping into digital worlds. You know, I binged all five seasons of Breaking Bad in a week. Well, you know, we all need to get out of the rabbit hole sometimes, right, But if you're not making positive impacts in your community, if you're not sharing the guy gospel of Jesus Christ, if you're not tending to your garden, if you're not raising chickens. You know, I'm just giving many examples here.

50:09Speaker 2:If you're just sitting on a sofa having information poured into your mind, they're controlling you. They're basically putting a spell on you and keeping you out of the game. You are one less person in the fight trying to make a change in this world. Right, limit yourself to that stuff. The average person consumes more fictional narratives in a month than many previous generations consumed in years. And because the mind absorbs repeated emotional patterns, entertainment eventually begins shaping expectations about reality itself. People start viewing life through cinematic lenses built around drama, outrage, revenge, Where's my daughter? Sarcasm, and self centered fulfillment. Me Me, Me right? Even that TV show Friends, what was about a bunch of adults who never had children? Maybe they did? I never watched that show, And even Seinfeld, a show I did watch again, another show where a bunch of adults never had children, and that was the nineties normalization. I want to go out, I want to have fun, right, I want to stand at the Chinese restaurant Seinfeld party of four Right. But there's deeper layers than just the entertainment of it. It's

51:39Speaker 2:getting people to accept it's okay not to have children when God tells you to go forth and multiply. There is you know, raising a child. There's no handbook, and there's struggles, and there's poopy diapers, and there's two am wake ups, and there's soccer trips and you know, it's a lot. But there is no greater reward than raising a child and knowing that the person before you, you know, sacrifice so much for you. You know, there is a level of selfishness not wanting to pro create, and a lot of people say, well, you know, we live in a world and again we look, you know, for excuses. Now, maybe it's God's will And I said I wasn't going to really touch on that earlier. Maybe we are coming on end times. I don't know something to think about, right, But when you hear that, you know we're consuming in a month what used to be consumed in years. It does lend credence to maybe we have a priority issue, maybe we don't quite understand the difference between a want and any And again, when I say all of these things that I've said over the last fifty two and a half minutes, I'm talking to myself as well. I'm

53:08Speaker 2:looking right in the mirror. I'm never ever talking down to anyone. I tell you, I am as broke as anybody in this world. But I recognize it. And that's why I want to make a difference. Back to this, and we mentioned it briefly earlier. Society has become deeply desensitive, desensitized to violence, and yes, social media has played a huge part of that. Modern audiences are exposed constantly to graphic murder, torture, mass shootings, and that started in the late nineties, gore warfare, psychological terror, and cruelty packaged as entertainment right franchises from Marvel Studios to hyper violent streaming crime dramas. And there's even horror entire horror channels or apps that just streams twenty four to seven horror. And I know some people they say, well, that's art. You have to be careful with that, because I mean, it can desensitive, It really can look at video game companies like Activision and rock Star. Right, that's call of duty and well, what's that grand theft auto? Right? They have built multi billion dollar empires around immersive violence. Meanwhile, news media simultaneously floods society with real world violence twenty four

54:36Speaker 2:hours a day, seven days a week, creating populations psychologically saturated with fear, aggression, and emotional numbness. The danger is not merely that people see violence. Human beings have always known violence exists. The danger is low. How entertainment increasingly disconnects violence from moral conscious and consequence come spectacle. Revenge becomes empowerment, right, Brutality becomes exciting, and entire generations are being called, not being called, but being conditioned to consume suffering as amusement. And it's not take it as someone who spent five and a half years in the Middle East in combat, it is not. Even more alarming is the normalization of sorcery, witchcraft, occult practices. Much of that through modern entertainment, and we touched on it at nauseum on last week's podcasts. So I'm not going to break it down, but social media accelerated it. Platforms, now overflow, with influences promoting tarot cards, manifestation, rituals, astrology, crystals, and all of that nonsense. Stay away from it. The most dangerous aspect of modern entertainment is escapism itself. Entire populations

55:59Speaker 2:now live in a cons state of distraction, right, endless scrolling, candy crush, streaming, podcast, yes, even podcast. You know. I tell you when I'm out doing things, I like to have my earbuds in and I'll listen to a sermon from pastor Fanine or Liberty or Chuck Baldwin and a couple other folks. But I also enjoy not having earbuds into, just listening and thinking and praying. Many people are terrified of silence, right these white noise machines have. They're in everyone's homes now because silence forces personal reflection, and reflection forces confrontation with reality, and entertainment provides a temporary escape from anxiety, emptiness, spiritual conviction, broken relationships, purposefulness, Russia say, purposelessness, and fear about the future and the system. The matrix understands that perfectly, because a distracted population is easier to manage than a population that is awake, and as long as people remain entertained, over stimulated, emotionally exhausted, and constantly consuming content. They are less likely to ask difficult questions about the world around them or even themselves. Bred and

57:39Speaker 2:circuses did not disappear after the Roman Empire. They simply evolved into modern day digital form. And you know, when you think about it, one of the biggest tragedies is people don't even recognize that they're addicted. They can't sit quietly, they can't pray, they can't read deeply and think. When I read, I will go back in many times and read that paragraph over again to reinforce it. And people can't think critically for long periods of time without reaching out for their screen again getting that dopamine fix. Their minds have been trained to crave constant stimulation, while their spiritual discernment slowly erodes below the noise. That is the danger of the entertainment matrix. It doesn't merely corrupt. It corrupts through what it prevents them from becoming. And that's why I had to There are some people who can do things in moderation, God bless them. Many people have addictive personalities, and for me, it was anytime I was in the car it was you know, insert eighties here, And then when I stepped away from I said, let me try this back in you know, a year and a half ago or so. And after a couple of

58:58Speaker 2:weeks I was like, wow, already, it's amazing, and any sure. I still like to watch a Phillies game or dip into the matrix for just a little relaxation. But you have to have priorities. You have to be able to leave that phone when I'm in the studio, that phone is not within reach. Sa hey man, I texted you two hours ago. Well, my door was closed. I was reading, I was writing, I was praying. You have to have limits and listen. Entire generations now derive their worldview from movies, streaming platforms, celebrity music, lyrics, then from churches and parents and scripture. Young people imitate entertainment. And we were two back in the eighties, right, parachute pants, whatever MTV was on, that was the latest thing, the skinny ties back in eighty six. Right, that's what we did. It's nothing new.

59:59Speaker 2:It's not just this generation. We have allowed the powers that be to take over our minds, and that's why the entertainment matrix is a battle over identity. If a system can shape what people desire, it can shape behavior. And if it can shape behavior long enough, it can shape culture. And if it can shape culture, it can slowly redefine morality itself. What was once called shameful becomes celebrated. Well was to him who calls evil good and good evil right. What once was sacred becomes mocked. What once was considered dangerous becomes fashionable again. Society doesn't collapse overnight.

1:00:45Speaker 2:It erodes gradually through repetition, normalization, emotional conditioning, and constant exposure. And Romans twelve to two warned about this long before Hollywood ever existed. It says, and be not conformed to this world, but be yet transformed by the renewing of your mind. And that verse is more relative now than ever, because conformity today rarely arrives through direct force. It arrives through screens, music, humor, celebrity, culture, culture, emotional attachment, algorithms, all of that. The modern system doesn't merely want your attention.

1:01:30Speaker 2:It wants your mind, It want your emotions, It wants your children. It wants to shape what you love, what you fear, what you laugh at what you tolerate and ultimately who you become. That is why discernment it matters, because if people never stop to examine what they are consuming, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally, they eventually wake up shaped by a culture they never consciously chose to follow. And perhaps that is the real purpose of this layer of the matrix, not to simply entertain society, but to slowly transform society into its own image. God bless each and every one of you.

1:02:17Speaker 2:Thank you for six million downloads. I pray that you'll tune in Thursday night, May the twenty first, when that podcast drops, which is just a mirror of our radio show. I pray that you'll listen and not just listen to me, but get it back into the Bible and see what it says. God bless you. Keep your head on a swivel and christen your heart.
