Alan Watt "Cutting Through The Matrix" LIVE on RBN:
Poem Copyright Alan Watt March 2, 2011:
Benevolent Dictator:
He Who Regulates Consumption
Is Heady with Corruption:
"Capitalism, Socialism, Communism, and all
Other "Isms",
Tend to Turn the Nations into Paupers' Prisons,
Politicians and Promises, Each Unconvincing Actor,
Bring in Personal Ambition, the True Corrupting Factor,
Caring Not What the Party is Called as Long as it has Power,
For Psychopathic Types Obsess to Live Atop the Tower,
In Charge of Nations' Wealth, Distribution, Consumption,
An Elite Class Always Emerges, Bloated with Corruption"

"Code of Silence" by Bruce Springsteen
There's a code of silence
that we don't dare speak
There's a wall between us and a river so deep
And we keep pretending that there's nothing wrong
But there's a code of silence and it can't go on
Is the truth so elusive, so elusive as you can see
that it ain't enough baby
To bridge the distance between you and me
There's a list of grievance 100 miles long
There's a code of silence and it can't go on
Hi folks. I am Alan Watt and this is Cutting Through The Matrix on the 2nd of March 2011. For newcomers, you should look into cuttingthroughthematrix.com web site and help yourself to the massive audios that are up there for download. I think there’s over a thousand of them now. Hopefully you’ll find that the big system in which you’re born into, this bewildering system of authority and layers and layers and layers of authorities of all kinds really is one big gigantic system that knows exactly where it’s going and where it’s taking us, and how we’re basically kept in the dark at the bottom level. We’re mushrooms; you’re kept in the dark and you’re fed lots of bovine fecal matter. And that’s good enough for the general public not to cause any troubles for those who rule the world. And people do, certainly do rule the world and have for long time in fact.
So while you are in the web site, remember that you are the audience that bring me to you. I don’t bring on advertisers as guests and when they do come on most shows they pay to get on and they also pay the host as well. That’s how most folk make their cash on Patriot Radio stations – but I don’t do it that way – and it’s okay for those who do, who have families and all the rest of it. But this is not a business. It’s more educational too. It’s not show business either, I should say. Hopefully you’ll get a lot out of it. So please support me. It’s up to you if you want to hear this stuff or not and you can do so by buying the books and the disks that I have for sale at cuttingthroughthematrix.com. Remember, the ads you hear on the show are paid by advertisers directly to RBN to broadcast the station. That pays for their staff and their equipment and their bills so help me out with mine. [Order and donation options listed above.] Remember, straight donations too are certainly welcome because they trickle in once in a while and there’s never anywhere near enough.
That’s the age we live in. People have been taught through the internet that everything is for free. It’s so free that they give all their data out to everyone who then sells it. So it’s certainly very profitable, all this free information, for those who own the net systems. It helps the NSA of course and basically the world government to monitor every single person to see who’s going to be a problem down the road. Most folk are not a problem, never will be; they’re very predictable. They’re already predictable in fact. I’ve gone through the Pentagon articles where they have a virtual you updated daily with all the information that you willingly, happily give out to all your supposed friends, most of whom are probably robots or at least computers or software. However, you cannot help those who are classified as ‘the dead.’ And really, in all ages you’ll find that even in old religious books, there’s a classification of people called ‘the dead’ and you cannot help the dead. You find it in Masonry too; they talk about ‘the dead.’ Pike said, they’re nothing but steak on the table and beasts of burden by choice and consent. They will not use their own initiative, their own mentality, their own brain power; they prefer to be led and guided quite happily as sheep. And they’re always used by those who are more aggressive, and there’s lots of them, believe you me, at the top. Unfortunately in a monetary system, it’s the ideal system for the psychopaths to get up and achieve power. They’re addicted to power and they get up through the collar and tie route. They get up on top and then of course they lord it over you like all tyrants always do. Back with more after this break.
Hi folks, I’m back and this is Cutting Through The Matrix. I’ve talked many times about basically eugenics and the so-called characters behind the eugenics societies that really took off after Darwin came out and talked about evolution. Evolution itself was a necessity for the Royal Society to get out too. They backed Darwin. In fact they really, even though they knew he stole most of Wallace’s material, they pushed Darwin to the fore because he was a higher Freemason than the rest of them. So he got the credit for pushing out this new religion, that everything simply evolved by itself and therefore if things evolved then they would keep evolving. They talked about The Great Leap Forward and things would just jump and all the rest of it. And different schools of thought came out and opposed each other and combined sometimes and split up again into different factions. However, it’s never died away. And for those in power who are obsessed with evolution... See, evolution to them is a way of trying to create a perfect kind of human beings for a species of plantation workers. That’s really what it is. They’ll give them less trouble.
Every so often these scientists that live on massive grants of your tax money and foundation money and so on, put out their papers. They must publish or perish – that’s what they call it in these scientific research facilities because if they don’t publish something every year the funding stops coming in. So they’ve got to keep churning out material and often it’s rehashed material with a new spin or a possibility in a new theory, and a theory is really somebody’s guess. That’s what a theory is, it’s a guess. So really, anybody’s guess is as good as anybody else’s unless someone in higher authority okays it, in science; then it’s a better guess, or it’s the authorized guess. But they’re determined through what they’re now calling neuroscience – and they’ve got neuroethics and bioethicists and all the rest of it – all these people combined to do with psychology and the physiology of the brain coming together – to try to predict people’s behavior, very important to run a society, because every tyrant under the sun has had to employ henchmen basically, armies and henchmen and torturers to keep everybody living in a fearful state. So this article here is one of the latest ones and it’s about neuroscience. It says...
Nobel Intent
(Alan: Not noble as in nobility, but Nobel Peace Prize and all that kind of stuff, because they cut brains into pieces I guess.)
Thoughtcrime? The ethics of neuroscience and criminality
(A: And this is a fan obviously, who probably gives handouts to all the papers on this kind of stuff.)
By Jonathan M. Gitlin | February 28, 2011 / arstechnica.com
One of the most thought-provoking sessions I attended at AAAS (A: I guess that’s alcoholics of science or something.) was "Nature, Nurture, and Antisocial Behavior: Biological and Biosocial Research on Crime." The three talks encompassed neurocognition, psychobiology, and a range of ethical issues that would make your brain spin if you thought about them hard enough. The topic has great potential for controversy, and it would be easy to interpret some of the data presented as an argument against free will. (A: Because you see, what they’re trying to do is, and one of the big theories out there, it’s been out there for quite a while, is that whatever comes out of your mouth or your head is really simply the end product of all these millions of cells comprising of your body battling each other for supremacy. No kidding. Yeah. So you’re really a whole universe within yourself all battling with each other, all these little planets, these little cells, and so whatever comes out really is just an end product of all this battling going on.) In some ways, however, I think it illustrates the mistake of thinking of nature and nurture as separate, when in reality the interplay between genetics and environment are inseparable, especially when it comes to criminal activity. (A: So he’s all gung-ho for the belief that it’s an hereditary type thing and can be explained by chopping up brains and stuff like that.)
Antisocial behavior on the brain
The University of Pennsylvania's Adrian Raine gave an excellent overview of neurocriminology, which I'll attempt to do justice. Several areas of the brain have been shown to be implicated with antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), commonly known as psychopathy or sociopathy. The frontal cortex is the large part of your brain that is responsible for higher reasoning and behavioral traits, and is one of the areas that has been looked at. It's smaller than normal in individuals with ASPD. Although there is a difference in crime rates between men and women, 77 percent of that difference goes away once you control for frontal cortex volume. (A: They love percentages, again, statistics and stuff like that because they help to rationalize nonsense.)
Dysfunction or abnormalities in other brain regions have also been associated with higher rates of crime and ASPD. The septum pellucidum is a region of brain tissue that separates the brain's fluid-filled spaces, called ventricles. (A: Are you impressed already; it sounds very scientific, eh. That’s supposed to impress you.) During fetal development, there is an opening inside this tissue that usually closes up within the first few months after birth. Individuals for whom this doesn't happen have higher rates of arrest and conviction, and score higher for ASPD. (A: See they’ve got to get a physical cause, you understand, in this scientific dictatorship we’re living under for everything that happens, that’s got to be reasoned in through SCIENCE, again, very Darwinistic and that’s all there is to it. A person really is a compilation of your genetic, hereditary condition and your environment that you’re brought up in and so on and so on. And everything must be explained to them, explainable I should say.)
A key center of emotion activity in the brain, the amygdala, is another important region, and a study comparing ASPD and normal brains found deformations and a significant reduction in volume in the ASPD cohort. These were centered on the basolateral nucleus, which is responsible for fear conditioning. (A: Right...) This suggests that one possible source of differences (or one of several interweaving mechanisms) is that ASPD-affected individuals don't form the same sort of response to fear as normal people.
(A: Now, you can really go over this and really cut it apart into a thousand pieces, even more than they’ll chop up brains. But really, when you look at that last part there, what are they looking for? That means that good people are living in fear. Do you understand that? Good people who don’t cause trouble, who don’t cause any crime, who are no problems to governments or authorities or whatever, are living in a state of fear, right? Obviously. So the ones who are not living in a state of fear, they’re saying, cause the crime. Which makes no sense again because you see, if, again, you get a whole bunch of guys, young guys, put them into the military, taught them to kill people, sent them abroad for a paycheck to slaughter folk, they will do it, they’ll get medals and all the rest of it, but they’ll still say they have normal brains. Do you see what I’m saying? Utter rubbish. Anyway...)
One study that showed this assessed autonomic fear conditioning in 3-year-olds (this is don
