The
Deep State: How They Got Their Power

- While many in the United States firmly believe
that the government just isn’t working, it is.
But it’s only working for the powerful and rich
elites in the government and the media who have
a desire to cling to their oppressive control of
others and the money many are willing to allow
them to steal.
The fight has never been between the republicans
and the democrats. As Americans choose sides,
their rights and freedoms are sold to the
highest bidder.
According to
Intellectual Takeout,
the fight is between “us” and the deep state;
not those on the right and those on the left.
More and more often we are seeing bureaucrats,
lobbyists, and elected officials of both parties
circle the wagons in an effort
to prevent any true reforms of the government.
They constantly
write laws they exclude themselves from,
come up with
inventive ways to tax us to our breaking point
and
destroy the healthcare system.
And this is all by design.
According to
Joost Meerloo in his seminal book The Rape of
the Mind,
the author discusses the
psychology of brainwashing that’s allowing every
American to
succumb to tyranny right before their eyes and
not only not realize it, but beg for more
oppression. “The burning psychological question
is whether man will eventually master his
institutions so that these will serve him and
not rule him,” said Meerloo in his discussion of
the Deep State or the “administrative machine”
published in 1956.
Meerlo describes
the rise of the deep state
as:
“… The
development of a kind of bureaucratic
absolutism is not limited, however, to
totalitarian countries. A mild form of
professional absolutism is evident in every
country in the mediating class of civil
servants who bridge the gap between man and
his rulers. Such a bureaucracy may be used
to help or to harm the citizens it should
serve.
It is important to realize
that a peculiar, silent form of battle goes
on in all of the countries of the world —
under every form of government — a battle
between the common man and the government
apparatus he himself has created. In
many places we can see that this governing
tool, which was originally meant to serve
and assist man, has gradually obtained more
power than it was intended to have.
…
Governmental techniques are no
different from any other psychological
strategy; the deadening hold of
regimentation can take mental possession of
those dedicated to it, if they are
not alert. And this is the intrinsic danger
of the various agencies that mediate between
the common man and his government. It
is a tragic aspect of life that man has to
place another fallible man between himself
and the attainment of his highest ideals.”
–The
Rape of the Mind
Meerlo
goes on to say that the power of simply being in
government will corrupt:
Being
a high civil servant subjects man to a
dangerous temptation, simply because he is a
part of the ruling apparatus. He finds
himself caught in the strategy complex. The
magic of becoming an executive and a
strategist provokes long-repressed feelings
of omnipotence. A strategist feels like a
chess player.
He
wants to manipulate the world by remote
control. Now he can keep others waiting, as
he was forced to wait himself in his salad
days, and thus he can feel himself
superior. –The
Rape of the Mind
But what we are
seeing now is not only the corruption of the
government. We are witnessing the deep state
pulling the strings of every politician and
fight to keep their power and money. The
members of the Deep State are fighting for not
only their jobs
and their power but their sense of being. It is
an ego boost to control entire populations. But
what meaning do they have in life if they were
shown that they are in fact dispensable, that
they and their departments can be eliminated? In
the end, their egos depend upon the maintenance
and growth of the power and prestige.

Over many decades,
the very government so many still trust to keep
them safe has put in place compulsive orders,
red tape, and regulations
while expanding exponentially to enforce what it
creates and
stealing more tax money
to cover the rising costs. All the while, its
roots drive deeper and deeper into the very
government many still fight to protect. Even the
politicians who we send to D.C. thinking that
they represent us are ensnared in the game. They
begin to play by the
rules set forth by the Deep State;
indeed, our elected officials even become
dependent upon the Deep State.
So the
question is, how do we combat the deep state and
get our freedom back?
