Neuro-Warfare: Engineering Consent for a Totalitarian Future
The global war on humanity's mental immune system
The Indoctrinated Brain unveils a previously unidentified neurobiological mechanism of indoctrination that significantly alters personality. Overwhelming evidence suggests that battles against perpetual pandemics (with COVID-19 just the beginning, as per the WEF Risk Report 2023), uncontrollable climate change, and national borders are merely aspects of a singular, covert war on the human brain. The real battlefield is our autobiographical memory, and thereby the mental immune system of our society. The sharp decline in mental health across all age groups is not mere collateral damage of a flawed anti-COVID-19 strategy, but the logical outcome of a stealthy and sophisticated neuropathological indoctrination process. This process aims for a Great Mental Reset, positioning humanity to "willingly" accept a new totalitarian system from the outset, despite its fundamental incompatibility with human nature.

“Welcome to 2030: I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better”1, predicts Danish politician Ida Auken. In her 2016 article for the World Economic Forum (WEF), she envisions a society born from the Great Reset advocated by the WEF. This 'reset,' however, aims to be far more than just a benign return to an imagined original state of our current economy. Instead, it proposes the imposition of a new totalitarian 'operating system' across humanity—a society without cash or property, overseen by artificial intelligence (AI) and governed by social credit systems.
Yet, for the majority to embrace, even celebrate, such a 'brave new world'—marked by pervasive surveillance and complete reliance on the agendas of technocratic elites, as Ida Auken suggests—a Great Mental Reset, a global-scale brainwashing, is necessary. As The Indoctrinated Brain illustrates, the seamless implementation and upkeep of such an operating system are achievable only by diminishing personal memory records beforehand (or concurrently), eradicating individual and consequently cultural identities. This strategy targets the hippocampus—the center for autobiographical memory in the human brain—clearly marking it for technocratic conquest. Erasing individualism and independent thinking clears the path for unquestioning conformity to prevailing technocratic narratives.
These narratives push the overstated claim that only a technocrat-led World Health Organization (WHO) can ensure our survival amidst endless pandemics and climate conflicts. A bill granting the WHO authority to interfere in national policies was approved by a majority in the German Bundestag on May 12, 2023.2 The widely accepted narrative that not the immune system but an increasing number of vaccinations (or even gene therapies) are our only protection against known and emerging pathogens has been particularly effective. For example, in an article in one of Germany's leading health journals, ÄrzteZeitung, of May 6, 2023, there is nothing to be found about the obvious failure of mRNA vaccines or unpleasant side effects. Instead, it quotes a questionable earlier statement by Anthony Fauci under the headline "Accelerating Vaccine Development with New Techniques”, which can be found in an article in the New England Journal of Medicine of December 1, 2022.3 In it, as head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, he claimed, ”The unprecedented speed with which safe and highly effective COVID-19 vaccines were developed, proven effective, and distributed resulted in millions of lives saved.”4 Omitted is a subsequent article from Jan. 11, 2023, co-authored b?y Fauci as the senior author, "Rethinking next-generation vaccines for coronaviruses, influenzaviruses, and other respiratory viruses”, in which he and his team state exactly the opposite: ”[...] it is not surprising that none of the predominantly mucosal respiratory viruses have ever been effectively controlled by vaccines. This observation raises a question of fundamental importance: if natural mucosal respiratory virus infections do not elicit complete and long-term protective immunity against reinfection, how can we expect vaccines, especially systemically administered non-replicating vaccines, to do so?”5 Likewise, the ÄrzteZeitung overlooks the fact that merely addressing a vitamin D deficiency could nearly eliminate the risk of fatal coronavirus infections to almost zero, or virtually no one would have died from COVID-19, a meta-study found.6 This lifesaving measure was well known prior to the injection program of genetically modified material encoding the brain-toxic spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 (hereafter referred to as "spiking"). However, it would have significantly damaged the narrative that only this new technique can save us (see my book Herd Health).7 However, the ÄrzteZeitung discusses the "success" of these "new techniques"—the broad acceptance of gene therapy interventions, despite significant side effects and lack of proven protection against infection—brought about by the spiking program during the COVID-19 pandemic. By ignoring the failure and the natural alternative, the range of such gene vaccines is now to be significantly expanded: ”Moderna, for example, is developing [mRNA] vaccines against HIV, Zika and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and has already presented promising Phase III data for an RSV vaccine.” In addition, BioNTech is already ”investigating [mRNA] vaccines against tuberculosis, malaria, HIV, herpes zoster and influenza”.
Even more transformative in the long term, we're led to believe that the fight against climate change—which, according to a central technocratic narrative, is entirely human-caused—can only be won by abandoning private ownership, cash, and privacy, while simultaneously embracing surveillance and social scoring systems. On this topic, the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) released a study in August 2020 exploring the adoption of a climate social scoring system modeled after China's.8 Surprisingly, this system is anticipated to be implemented by 2030, the same year the WEF (WEF) projects for the Great Reset. However, this monitoring and evaluation system isn't just a tool for mobilizing society against climate change, which is claimed to be manageable despite substantial evidence to the contrary. It acts as a catalyst for accepting a fundamentally issue-agnostic social scoring system, amounting to a comprehensive technocratic surveillance of society—the ultimate instrument for reinforcing indoctrination. Similarly, the Smart City Charter, introduced by the German Federal Ministry of the Interior and Homeland Affairs (BMI) in 2017 as a strategic framework for the digital transformation of municipalities by 2030, follows this theme. It discusses "sustainably shaping digital transformation in municipalities" and starts by asserting that "long-term success of digitization in municipalities hinges on acceptance by users and, importantly, by the public."9 Interestingly, a distinction is made here between users of digitization and the general public. In such a smart city future, elections, ownership, and privacy will cease to exist; everything will be digitally monitored and controlled by AI according to technocratic directives.
Enduring acceptance of these deeply counter-cultural trends necessitates the erosion of the mental or psychological immune system of the human population at large. Rainer Mausfeld, a German professor emeritus of general psychology, described the function of this mental safeguard in an interview with Overton magazine: ”Opinions and attitudes cannot be so easily manipulated against facts or reason because we normally have a natural psychological immune system against manipulation. So we notice when we are being manipulated and turn away from the poisoned medium. But when our natural immune system against manipulation is undermined or impaired, we are at the mercy of manipulation without protection.”10
Our physical immune system becomes more adept at countering new viral threats when it encompasses a wider variety and functionality of immune cells. In a similar vein, the likelihood of uncovering innovative solutions to existential threats, such as the loss of freedom, increases with the presence of mentally healthy individuals who possess distinct individualities within a society. The complexity and diversity of our personal experiences, as indicators of individuality, enhance our ability to foresee and innovate. Therefore, the innovative capacity and resilience of a society are determined by the sum of its uniquely thinking individuals, each multiplied by their level of individuality—defined by their distinct experiences and creative potential. This doesn't yet account for the dynamic enhancing effects that arise from complex interpersonal interactions. Those who seek to dominate humanity have two fundamental strategies to degrade or permanently weaken its mental immune system: diminishing the number of independent thinkers or reducing their individuality. The coercive tactics deployed during the COVID crisis have achieved both, as evidenced by extensive studies in The Indoctrinated Brain. The resulting unprecedented mortality, not attributable to infections alone, and the significant loss of mental and psychological capacity across society due to targeted attacks on the center of autobiographical memory, reveal a strategy both cunning and scientifically sophisticated. The assault has severely compromised humanity's mental and psychological immune system, which would have otherwise shielded it from deep-seated manipulation and indoctrinated personality changes. Recovery and safeguarding against future assaults are contingent upon our understanding of the source and precise nature of these attacks.
The hippocampus, our center for autobiographical memory, is the focal point of this assault. Unlike short-term memory, which relies on brain waves in the prefrontal cortex and is easily disrupted, only the long-term memory stored in the hippocampus has the ability to instantly and permanently catalog new thoughts and experiences. The hippocampus tracks the when, where, what, and how we felt about our experiences and thoughts. This autobiographical memory is essential for forging an independent individuality, allowing us to compare new experiences with past ones, to reflect and learn, and also to plan and execute actions. A healthy hippocampus is crucial for the development of human individuality and creativity, serving as the foundation for both independent thought and forward planning. Simply put, without the hippocampus, we are without a past and devoid of any concept of the future.11
Hippocampal place and time neurons are pivotal in remembering the where and when of new memories. These neurons are lifelong residents of the hippocampus, essential for piecing together memories when needed and for pinpointing where and when we encountered or contemplated something significant. The significance is marked by the emotions associated with the experience or thought. I refer to them as 'index neurons' because they organize our memories, and without them, recalling past memories and thoughts would be impossible. Creating a new thought necessitates the generation of new index neurons. A lack of fresh neurons leads to a state known as ego depletion, characterized by mental fatigue. In this state, we shy away from entertaining new thoughts due to a sheer lack of mental storage capacity. An extraordinary process called adult hippocampal neurogenesis, involving the creation of new neurons (neurogenesis) in the adult hippocampus, ensures the daily regeneration of new place and time neurons, or index neurons, during deep sleep. This regeneration makes us receptive and open to new experiences each morning, a capacity that could extend into old age. ”Could,” because this neurobiological mechanism became a prime target for personality-changing indoctrination. since it is elemental to human individuality and creativity, as well as to the maintenance of the many other functions of autobiographical memory (such as psychological resilience, natural curiosity, self-esteem, and critical thinking skills). Attacking this process has dramatic consequences for both the individual and society as a whole, as the following diagram illustrates.
Before the onset of COVID-19 in 2019, adult hippocampal neurogenesis had hit a record low, a consequence of the increasingly unnatural lifestyles led in our modern society, as I elaborate in my book The Exhausted Brain.12 Chronic fatigue, depression, and Alzheimer's disease were simultaneously at unprecedented highs—a predictable outcome when recognizing these conditions as neuropathological effects of this deviation in our cultural evolution (refer to “Unified Theory of Alzheimer's Disease'”13. It's plausible that the technocratic actors pinpointed the end of 2019 to initiate their assault on autobiographical memory, leveraging the already diminished individualization due to pre-existing hippocampal damage, thus capitalizing on the significantly weakened mental immune system of society. This backdrop likely facilitated the unchallenged acceptance of illogical and detrimental policies by a vast segment of the population, including the uptake of an experimental gene therapy despite glaring risks. The mental fortitude to resist such measures was overwhelmingly insufficient among the masses. As detailed in The Indoctrinated Brain, this resistance was further eroded. For instance, the incidence of depression, already at a zenith in 2019, tripled in the first year of the COVID program alone.14 The collective and individual mental immune systems were further compromised and enduringly impaired by COVID-related interventions, evidenced by a diminished natural curiosity, eroded psychological resilience, lowered self-esteem, and an escalating incapacity for critical thought.
Specifically, “spiking,” now recommended as a regular annual vaccination by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), inhibits the formation of new index neurons. This effect was known from the outset and cannot be dismissed as an unintended oversight; rather, it indicates a calculated strategy. For the spike protein of SARS-CoV-1, cited as the basis for declaring a pandemic in 2002, research by 2007 had already shown that it disrupts autobiographical memory by triggering a cascade of neuroinflammatory agents, all of which hinder neurogenesis and can even lead to hippocampal shrinkage.15 This neurotoxic impact was intensified through specific molecular alterations in SARS-CoV-2. Its spike protein includes a furin cleavage site, the precise genetic sequence of which was patented by Moderna in 2016.16 Furin, a naturally occurring enzyme that functions like molecular scissors, pre-activates the virus by cutting at this site, a feature wholly atypical for coronaviruses, thus enhancing its infectiousness.17 More critically, the S1 subunit of the spike protein, released after this cleavage, can penetrate the blood-brain barrier, directly impairing autobiographical memory. This mechanism underlies many principal symptoms observed in long-COVID or post-vaccination syndrome, which, taken together, might more accurately be termed “post-spike syndrome”.
The logical inference that the brain damage is deliberate gains support from the use of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) in the spiking process. This choice of a brain-penetrating vehicle for a vaccine targeting a respiratory infection (which effectively turns every brain cell into a potential immune system target) appears counterintuitive. Furthermore, it employs systemic administration, which, according to Fauci's very recent acknowledgments (as previously mentioned), is ineffective against infections—at least regarding the targeted pathogens, but evidently not the brain. Viewed through this lens, what might seem like the failure of the gene therapy intervention could actually be deemed a success, given it fosters the perception that ongoing re-spiking is necessary. This approach might also explain why groups traditionally considered at low risk, such as pregnant women, children, and adolescents, were encouraged to undergo repeated spiking. Such a strategy, involving the long-term cerebral presence of the neurotoxic S1 subunits for over a year, results in lasting neurological harm, notably disrupting hippocampal neurogenesis across all demographics and throughout the lifespan.18
The significant impairment of the hippocampus's various functions (refer to graphic) has left humanity more susceptible to additional assaults, elevating the risk that even a distinctly anti-freedom “operating system” might be imposed on people's minds without objection—a prospect Prince Charles labeled as a “golden opportunity” for a Great Reset as early as June 2020.19. As illustrated in the diagram and elaborated in The Indoctrinated Brain, the process of overwriting index neurons stems from an evolutionary emergency mechanism. This survival program activates during acute ego depletion (which has become chronic for many in today's society) due to frequently disrupted hippocampal neurogenesis. It ensures that even in states of mental exhaustion, individuals can navigate perilous situations. By repurposing previously utilized index neurons, the brain permanently loses access to certain past memories in perceived dangerous contexts, effectively resulting in their deletion. However, the critical survival function is to encode the precise details of an acute crisis in the hippocampus. This encoding allows for comparison with past events or experiences, enabling appropriate responses based on the principle that losing some memories is preferable to losing one's life.
Fear propaganda exploits this emergency override mechanism to implant a new paradigm for coexistence. This dual-phase strategy—first, halting the generation of index neurons and then replacing the remaining index neurons with technocratic narratives—poses a real risk that in the ongoing state of perma-pandemics20 and perma-crises, as forecasted in the WEF's Risk Report 2023, there will be a systematic and complete replacement of the individuality-shaping index neurons with technocratic ideologies. Such a shift forebodes the total breakdown of society's mental or psychological immune system. As genuine individuality dwindles, eroding the foundation of proactive, innovative creativity, humanity's capacity to effectively resist such assaults on its liberty diminishes. Anyone challenging these prevailing narratives in the presence of individuals thus indoctrinated may find their skepticism perceived not just as a dispute of the narrative but as a personal attack, making the consequences of the process acutely felt on an individual level. The enduring challenge for humanity is twofold: individuals lacking in autonomous individuality contribute minimally to resisting ominous changes; furthermore, their actions become far more predictable to AI and more easily monitored through social scoring systems (BMBF), as proposed in the BMI's Smart City Charter. Consequently, the trajectory of human civilization—disconnected from any notion of human culture—will be directed by a handful of technocrats wielding significant power.
While it's disheartening to acknowledge the vast loss of individual experiences—and with them, portions of lived life—due to COVID-19 interventions, it's not too late to halt this process. We must come to terms with these losses and start thinking independently to prevent others from thinking on our behalf. Thus, The Indoctrinated Brain is essential reading for anyone eager to maintain their critical thinking and intellectual autonomy. It not only illuminates the subtle mechanisms that eroded our mental capacities, largely unnoticed, even before COVID-19 emerged. By making the connections clear, The Indoctrinated Brain also outlines actionable steps anyone can take. There's still a chance to stop and reverse this dire process, enabling people of our time and future generations to fully realize their mental capabilities in a wholly natural manner. Therefore, delving into this book shines a light and offers hope in a crucial moment of human history: The decision of whether our species will retain or irreversibly lose its humanity and creative essence is being made in our era.
