Bernie Landoz - How We Control A World Of 6b People

The imperative of Plausibility Deniability (getting credit when things go well, and diverting liability when things go wrong) is absolutely critical to being competitive in today’s environment. This behavior is being DEMANDED of us by the owners of Corporate America – the average American through their mutual funds. Ways to achieve this with both those who are willingly taking on this liability, and those who are not aware of the liability they are taking on are discussed. In order to understand the value of legal constructs like corporate responsibility / accountability, contracts, etc, you have to understand the nature of civil law, business relationships, power, and the difficulties of actually winning a lawsuit. The true purpose of a Board of Directors is reviewed.

Our strategy is to first drive people to low energy levels like fear and shame which makes them easier to control with classic tactics, and makes them less likely to perceive what’s happening around them. We need to stay in an enlightened state so we don’t get infected, and so we can easily manipulate people at these low energy levels. Different types of intelligence are discussed as well as the need for low emotional intelligence, and how to neutralize the threat from people who are too smart and difficult to control. Once we drive people to low energy levels, we can then most effectively use classic tactics such as: not setting clear objectives, focusing on the crisis of the day, focusing on perception, understanding what motivates people, setting up scapegoats as an insurance policy, bonding with people, finding their weaknesses, weakening them by frustrating them, transfering low energy states to others, using reorganizations.

The number one rule of business is discussed and put in perspective with addiction and Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs. The nature of the Fat Dumb and Happy Model illustrates how important addiction and selfishness is to our society, and how people are often in denial about how their behavior is exactly the opposite of what they claim it to be. This rule is then applied to important marketing rules of deception in order to compete and make money. Two types of people are discussed: Looters and Producers – which represents the 2 major fundamental philosophies of conducting business. The nature of the market you are doing business in will drive your ability to exaggerate and/or lie. To make a lot of money you need to create a winning formula often by brainwashing a lot of people into similar behavior. The personalities needed to manage a small vs. a large company are significantly different. Markets driven by perception have a tremendous opportunity for making money through employing powerful and ignorant looters.

The nature of the ownership (the stock market) in the US allows the population and markets to be psychopathic and complain about the very problems they cause, yet financially benefit from. The orchestrator must be aware of this and tune and control the system so it doesn’t break down. Psychopathic (the populace) and Machiavellian (the governing leaders) behavior is described as they go hand in hand. Bernie discusses his knowledge of the meltdown and why he didn’t do anything about it. “Life is like River”, always bet on water flowing downhill.

Bernie introduces concepts that will be addressed in more detail throughout the series. Our society is kept from falling apart by keeping people fulfilled so they don’t ask questions of their leaders. The mechanism by which this is done is discussed – entertainment, religion, the military, the media, sports, etc. We essentially turn people into dogs and sheep so we can ensure they are efficient workers and so we can control their purchasing and voting patterns. Our society is built on a wall of confusion and denial so most of these dogs and sheep don’t recognize that they are a very active part of the very same problems that they complain about.

Bernie explains why he created this video/podcast series. The most significant event of the Clinton Presidency has been obscured by us and the American people have chosen to ignore it. The Adam and Eve story is used to illustrate an important point about how knowledge and information comes in multiple layers, and how this information and the required skills to survive in a new global environment is the privilege and responsibility of us few.
