In this episode of The Shift host, Doug McKenty discusses the idea of Agorism with Sal Mayweather, author of Anti-Politics and host of "The Agora" podcast. Agorism is the idea that the best way to dissolve authoritarian systems of government is simply to ignore them. By creating a "counter economy" separate from centralized means of production and unregulated by the state, these activists seek to bring down systems of oppression by simply circumventing them. In their view, political action only enables the very systems they are seeking to transmute through non-violent, civil disobedience.

In this episode, Doug interviews Dr. Julianne Romanello regarding a paper published by MIT entitled "Viral Visualizations: How Coronavirus skeptics Use Orthodox Data Practices to Promote Unorthodox Science Online". This study followed anti-lockdown activists on social media and discovered groups of highly scientifically literate individuals utilizing cutting-edge data collation practices to argue that lockdowns don't work. With no evidence, the paper concludes these groups must be racists who have weaponized critical thinking in order to radicalize others into "heterodox" beliefs, rather than simply admitting they make a good argument and advocating for public debate over this important issue.

In this episode, Doug McKenty talks wholistic health and tantra with sex and wellness coach Sureya Leonara. Though many raised in Western cultures have been conditioned to believe in a materialistic world devoid of energetic influences within biological systems, all other cultures throughout the history of the world explored internal systems of energy and believed their balance was fundamental to healthy living. Shamanistic systems including ancient Daoism and Hinduism all incorporate theories regarding the function and design of this energy system, and provide a variety of ways to influence it in order to provide physical and emotional health. In this interview, Sureya describes how tantra can be used as a powerful method for balancing energies while providing a path towards overall health and wellness. This modality can be especially helpful for the many traumatized through shame and guilt surrounding sex by patriarchal authorities. Find out more about Sureya Leonara at www.sureyaleonara.com.

Enjoy this episode as host Doug McKenty has author and podcaster Charlie Robinson back on the program to discuss his latest book, The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire, co-written with Jeff Berwick. This conversation explores how the American state has been targeted by corporate internationalists in order to replace US world hegemony with centralized global control of populations through the auspices of the United Nations. It covers a wide range of issues including media, education, and monetary policy. This controlled collapse will lead to the inevitable decline of the United States as a world power for the benefit of the billionaire class seeking to colonize the planet under a central control grid requiring dependence on the transnational corporate system for the necessities of life.

In this 16th episode of the Psychology of Lockdown Series, host Doug McKenty dives deeper into the Rules of Dysfunction with George Roche. These Rules cover the underlying causes of the phenomenon of Mystification described earlier in the series and really get to the heart of the types of abusive behavior that lead to dysfunctional relationships. This week's episode focuses on Perfectionism, which results in extreme denial and coping mechanisms such as projection and gaslighting that occur when the perfectionist is not capable of admitting to their own mistakes. Think about how this affects our community leaders when they believe the "consensus" of scientists has reached a "perfect" conclusion. Those at the top of the corporate/government hierarchy often suffer from this disability.

Welcome to the 79th episode of The Shift where host Doug McKenty discusses the topic of Communitarianism with author Niki Raapana. This conversation reveals the little known concept central to many of the political and economic changes now taking place all around the world as governments and organizations respond to the Covid-19 pandemic by implementing policies and procedures utilizing Communitarianism as a foundational principle. From the Great Reset to Agenda 21 to Impact Investing and Stakeholder Capitalism, and embedded in the very concept of Technocracy itself, Communitarianism is the glue that hold all these seemingly dispirit policy platforms together. Once understood, this umbrella concept reveals the philosophy behind Global Corporatism and its drive to circumvent individual rights and impose a new order on humanity.

In this 15th episode of the Psychology of Lockdown series, George and Doug begin to delve into the heart of the Rules of Dysfunction as described by psychoanalyst John Bradshaw. This discussion focuses on the idea of Control, a form of abuse characterized by overbearing and often passive-aggressive behavior designed to manipulate the victim into complete subservience. In patriarchal, hierarchical systems, control is often applied to suppress the authentic self in others by those driven through trauma to engage in this type of coping mechanism. Clearly, control is a common tactic elicited by family and community members Mystified into believing they are protecting those around them by oppressing them thus creating the cycle of violence so prevalent in society today.

In this episode host, Doug McKentty discusses Chaos magic with author, blogger, and host of the Rune Soup podcast Gordon White. While many of those colonized into the patriarchal system prevalent in the modern-day have difficulty believing in the existence of a multi-dimensional world populated with spirit beings that actively impact this 3D reality, every indigenous culture throughout the history of the world includes a belief in such forces existing behind the Veil. Gordon White has dedicated his life to understanding and participating in systems of magic designed to interact with "the other side" in order to provide divination and to martial the forces found therein to produce positive life changes including abundance, career opportunities as well as relationship advice. Though he is partial to the European-based lineage of Chaos magic, his podcast explores mystical and magical traditions from around the world. Stay tuned for this conversation which delves into the heart of what it means to be colonized, and describes the fundamental differences in epistemology between magical and mystical thinking as compared to the empiricism that dominates the mainstream scientific cosmogenesis.

In this episode, host Doug McKenty takes a deep dive into the power of the subconscious mind with self-sabotage coach Jason Christoff. They discuss how often the subconscious mind is used by the corporate/government narrative as a tool for control. Through marketing, television programming and indoctrination, many are left susceptible to conditioned beliefs about health, abundance and politics that are not the product of personal critical thinking, but as a result of subconscious cues designed to manipulate thoughts and habit. In this interview, Jason describes how we as humans can take back our subconscious mind through the persistent, repetitive retraining of destructive thought patterns in order to take back our lives from those who would manipulate us for social control and personal gain. By transmuting these negative conditionings into positive, healthy thought process, we can retake our lives from the colonizing machine and gain personal sovereignty, abundance, health and vitality.

Enjoy this 74th episode of The Shift where host Doug McKenty discusses the rollout of the Fourth Industrial Revolution with Doctor of Philosophy Julianne Romanello. Dr. Romanello was teaching at the University of Tulsa when the administration announced big changes to the curriculum. The university was going to start promoting science and math at the expense of the classical liberal arts curriculum that prioritized a well-rounded education. Upon further inspection, Dr. Romanello discovered these changes were influenced by a web of public/private partnerships now exposed as the economic program known as the Great Reset. Enjoy this conversation that not only reveals how university education has been dramatically influenced by this plan but uses the philosophical writings of Eric Voglin to provide context for the philosophical shift away from education and towards indoctrination. If you want to dive deeper, you can find Voglin's "On Classical Studies" here: https://voegelinview.com/on-classical-studies/, and Dr. Romanello's essay concerning the work here: https://voegelinview.com/eric-voegelins-on-classical-studies/.

Enjoy this conversation between host Doug McKenty and Alexandria Russell of The Guardian Alliance. As we decolonize and separate from the corporate/government narratives of materialistic reductionism, it is often difficult to discover alternative belief systems to replace the worldview of empire. Often, those making the shift can become overwhelmed with feelings of anxiety and depression as they no longer trust the paradigm of their birth. Though alternatives are out there, it can take years to find teachers and pick from the many traditional and indigenous belief systems that may work for you, then blend those systems into an integrated, holistic perspective about the world that resonates and empowers. Add to that the modern concepts of quantum mechanics, chaos theory, and unified field theory and you may never find your way back to a worldview that is consistent and fully functional. For those seeking to understand the many layers of this esoteric worldview that provides a path to healing and personal strength, the Guardian Alliance is the place to go. The introductory process is very affordable and worth checking out for newcomers as well as those who have experience with esoteric traditions. Check out this conversation for an in-depth discussion of how the system works and what you can expect to get out of it, and go to www.guardian.is for more information and to sign up to learn the fundamentals of the wholistic integrated worldview that provides an alternative perspective to the dominant paradigm.

The Line interviews members of America’s Front Line Doctors and Global Front Line Nurses. Discussions about the reality of healthcare and other Covid related issues.

In this episode, host Doug McKenty takes a deep dive into the history of the American Revolution with author and activist Clyde Cleveland. Using the writings of political philosopher Alexis de Tocqueville as a foundation, Clyde and Doug discuss the fundamentally cooperative nature of American society from before the Revolution to the publishing of de Tocqueville's classic, Democracy in America, in 1835. The conversation focuses on the little-known history of The Assembly system, formed in the early 1770's, based on a completely decentralized power structure that prioritized the power of the township over any state or federal organization. Clyde goes on to describe how the creation of a standing army led to the Articles of Confederation and ultimately a Constitution that allowed power to centralize in the hands of a few. The conversation also includes a historical interpretation that recognizes how the atrocities of slavery and Native American genocide were perpetrated as a result of the centralization efforts that ultimately lead to a powerful standing army and the primacy of the corporate system over the cooperative spirit described by de Tocqueville as the primary characteristic of American culture in the early days of the Republic.

Welcome to this 11th episode in the Psychology of Lockdown series where host Doug McKenty discusses the characteristic of Mystification known as Time Distortion. Those with unhealed psychological trauma get triggered into a fight or flight state by often subtle sensations that remind the subconscious mind of a time when emotional or physical abuse or other trauma occurred. A smell, an environment or a behaviour, no matter how innocuous, can transport a former victim right back into a time when their lives may well have been in mortal danger. For those many who have been traumatized by growing up in a patriarchal hierarchy, defined by bullying authority figures that punished and shamed them for not following orders, consistent fear-based propaganda can be enough to trigger feelings and emotions that destroy critical thinking while demanding adherence to authoritarian dictates.

Join host Doug McKenty as he once again discusses the characteristics of Mystification with George Roche, Executive Director of The Line International. This series gets to the heart of the psychological trauma inflicted on all those indoctrinated into a patriarchal culture, which trains victims to follow orders based on trauma-based behavioral conditioning, rather than utilizing critical thinking to express their authentic selves. This tenth episode focuses on how many are triggered through fear into acting out, like shaming those who refuse to follow authoritarian dictates or acting in, which results in self-harming behavior such as addiction, depression, or suicide. This episode is a must for those wondering why many people have a knee-jerk reaction to support Covid lockdowns, despite overwhelming evidence that they are causing more harm than good.

In this episode of The Shift, host Doug McKenty speaks all things Voluntaryism with Etienne de la Boetie2, author of Government: The Greatest Scam in History Exposed. Stay tuned for this discussion which describes a political philosophy based on freedom of choice and the Non-Aggression Principle. Rather than viewing political evolution through the lens of the left/right paradigm, which posits predetermined historical revolutions occurring as a result of materialist dialectics, Etienne instead describes the monopoly of violence attributed to the state as simply a criminal enterprise engaging in a mafia-like protection racket. In reality, a handful of elites at the top of the corporate pyramid use government as a front organization designed to protect and perpetuate a criminal cartel that has now been responsible for the colonization of much of the planet. This multi-generational organized crime syndicate uses the idea of government to convince the mass of the population that aggression is legitimate, as long as it is backed by the authority of the state. Ultimately, many are brainwashed into a cult-like subservience wherein the working classes will literally build their own prisons while accepting theft through taxation, wars for cheap resources, and laws targeting non-violent behaviors that compete with the cartel.

In this episode of the Psychology of Lockdown, George Roche and Doug McKenty discuss the eighth characteristic of Mystification as described by psychoanalyst John Bradshaw, cognitive closure. This precursor to cognitive dissonance represents the closing of the mystified mind to thoughts, feelings, and ideas that disavow the psychological paradigm constructed as a coping mechanism for dealing with emotional abuse. In this conversation, George and Doug delve into the correlations between those indoctrinated into this need to follow authority and those victimized through assimilation into a cult.

In this installment of the Psychology of Lockdown Series, Doug and George discuss the seventh characteristic of the state of Mystification as described by psychoanalyst John Bradshaw through the lens of Family Systems Therapy. In this episode, they discuss the notions of self-identity, trance, and confusion and dive deep into how these states of mind often make it difficult for many to apply critical thinking to political discussions. So many in our culture identify with the "left" or the "right" of the political spectrum and simply cannot break free from established narratives that conform to this pre-determined perspective. As a result, political conversations based on logic and rational capacity are discarded in favor of ideological bias. They also discuss Episode 69 of The Shift where Doug discusses the "Bullyocracy" with author Donald Jeffries. Find out how ubiquitous bullying and enforced social hierarchies contribute to the emotional abuse that causes Mystification.

In this episode, host Doug McKenty goes deep with movement influencer and activist Sacha Stone. Sacha has been working for decades to spread truth and awaken humanity through a variety of projects designed to provide a platform for all those seeking a sustainable living and natural justice independent of the corporate/government systems of control. His unique ability to access those in positions of power at the United Nations and other world leaders interested in making the shift away from the colonizing forces of empire and into autonomous and individual sovereignty affords him the ability to organize the freedom movement from a global perspective. Stay tuned for this conversation showcasing Sacha's powerful worldview which explains the spiritual foundations of both the cult-like power of those who weave the Dreamspell, as well as the consciousness of the coming Ascension.

Stay tuned for this informative episode as host Doug McKenty explores the idea of Bullyocracy with author Donald Jefferies. This much-needed conversation dives into the notion that a toxic emotional environment ubiquitous throughout the education system, may well be characteristic of an almost subconscious social hierarchy that begins early on in the educational process and goes on to define a subtle, yet powerful, culture-wide psychological system that favors the strong over the weak. In his book, Bullyocracy, Jefferies describes how popular kids in school are often allowed to torment and bully "outsiders" with impunity, while authority figures often allow such behaviour, even blaming the victim when the bullying escalates into serious violence. He goes on to depict how these bullies go onto success in life, while their victims often suffer from years, even decades of PTSD. Could this subtle social hierarchy, cultivated throughout the educational experience of many, be the foundation of a society that often allows the 1% to get away with all manner of abuse against the lower classes? Have many of us been socialized from an early age to accept that the "survival of the richest" at any cost, is an acceptable form of social organization? Find out as Doug and Donald take a deep dive into the foundations of this Bullyocracy and how it defines our social and political relationships well after high school.
