While a deep dive into the still-ongoing theater of kinetic and psychological war being waged both by and against Russia is what brought me out of my Anon shell and into the public dance of the Info War over a year ago in the ‘Righteous Russia’ series, those who’ve been following my writing and commentary know that I’ve since expanded into the analysis and coverage of all sorts of aspects of the Macro conflict between the forces of globalism and sovereignty the world over.
In fact, the reason I repeat that refrain in most of the features I pen is because I like to use it as a framing device both for myself and for you in order to tie in everything from kinetic conflicts between super powers to political deployments by all factions on the Game Theory Game Board and most importantly, to Narrative Deployments by all sides in this Fifth-Generation War as myriad and kaleidoscopic aspects of the same overarching and underlying conflict.
This is a real war. An Info War. A kinetic war. A clandestine war. A spiritual war.
But the front of the war that I tend to be most attracted to and guided by is the War of Stories that defines and codifies the Micro within the Macro, and connects the various theaters into more directed, congruent and understandable fronts.
As I have argued before, my obsession with stories is coded with the belief—the knowledge—that human beings are creatures—creations—inherently guided by, informed by, inspired by and ultimately defined by stories, both real and imagined, as both can have equal and sometimes opposite impacts on the realm of the real. That is the power of stories.
Narratives, whether true, false or some obfuscated mix of the two can and do have very real impacts on the world around us, just as they have very real impacts on each and every one of us, the would-be sovereign and free minds attempting to make sense of all this swirling, chaotic madness on a daily—almost an hourly—basis. Stories can be used to confuse, to influence, to reveal, to suppress … sometimes all at once. Stories are paradoxical and integral, impossible to capture fully and yet, able to be understood at a glance, as they speak to the depths of psyche.
We are in a war both FOR and AGAINST the Collective Mind of American society. We are in a war both FOR and AGAINST YOUR Mind. Your mind holds the key because your mind IS the key. From patriots and white hats to collectivists and black hats, each faction NEEDS the tacit or direct mandate of the disparate, decentralized and sovereign collective—that beautiful contradiction that is not a contradiction—in order to erect a paradigm stable enough to collapse into the real.
And if we can accept that everything we see is a story—both real and imagined, true and false—then we must consider and appreciate the power of the storytellers on display as this conflict escalates and accelerates into new theaters by the week.
I am a storyteller. You are storytellers. Each of us is a node in a vast, interconnected network of humanity. Of minds both discerning and unassuming, active and passive. We can each of us affect the Collective Mind through our directed will, thoughts and intention, and there’s nothing New Age or Hermetic about that; it’s simply the way human psychology works. We are creatures of haunt and habit. We define ourselves by our communications and communions with one another, for better and worse. We are each pebbles and stones cast into an eternal pond of consciousness, and the war between the ripples distorts and defines the shared image that makes up the vast mirror we project and reflect in our unified multitude.
But while we each play a role in the war of stories, there are those who do more than act as tossed pebbles or skipped stones, river rocks and disturbances along the shore. There are some in this grand play who have the power to hurl boulders and cause landslides, to break and redirect currents and flows, to cause cascades and even tidal waves.
In one of the most popular ongoing series at Burning Bright, I have spent months delving into the narrative techniques of the most impactful storyteller of our time, Donald Trump, as he works to guide and reshape the Collective Mind, to direct it without controlling it, to tease it without tricking it so that it might remember its own strength and sovereignty once more. Following this piece, and if you haven’t already, I suggest you give, ‘The Master,’ a try.
But Trump isn’t the only master storyteller on the game board, and he’s not always the most impactful. From Elon Musk to Joe Biden—I didn’t say all storytellers had to be skilled, just impactful—the Media Industrial Complex as a collective to the decentralized counter boiling up in the Anon world and the Truth Community, there are many voices and narrative-setters, some working for us and some against us, while others seem to act as disruptors—agents of chaos seeking to distort and destroy narratives being set by other players and factions in the shared, yet uncooperative game we’re either wittingly or unwittingly playing.
And the Media itself—that reductive, pejorative term used to describe the information, or rather, the narrative dissemination collective that attempts to cement and solidify paradigms with which to paralyze, and by extension, enslave us—seems to be at the heart of the War of Stories of late.
That may seem obvious, if taken in the wrong way. Of course the Media is at the heart of the War of Stories. They’re charged with setting Narratives, directing them or disrupting them, right?
While true, that description and definition of the Media’s collective and collectivist role in the War of Stories is not the intent of this piece. Rather, I want each of you to consider the Media not as directors of the stories and narratives we’re seeing play out on both a national and international stage at present, but rather the Media as SUBJECT of those very narratives.
You see, while the Media Industrial Complex is a pillar of [their] dark and subversive empire, and while it has historically held immense sway in the turning of public opinion and the directing and influencing of national social and political sentiment, the Media does not want to BE the story; they want to WRITE the story.
Lately … the Media IS the story. One among many.
This has, in my view reduced their effectiveness on a subconscious level in the Collective Mind, as human beings—Americans in particular—are naturally wary of those who seek to guide when partisanship, legality and argument rest at the heart of would-be institutions. Of course, those reading these words have long seen the Media Industrial Complex for the illusory and damaging house of horrors that it is, and our disdain for them is at least proportional to the damage we believe they’ve inflicted on the world through the setting and endorsement of catastrophically damaging paradigms, from the War on Terror in the aftermath of the 9/11 False Flag event, to the War on Common Sense witnessed over the course of the last decade on everything from real science—not the intellectual abomination that was COVID-19—and reason to objective, observable reality as these cretins and crows attempt to rewire our very definitions of gender, love and morality before our waking eyes.
And yet, in order to have true power to subvert and influence the Collective Mind in a direction that is antithetical to its own cognitive, emotional and even spiritual well-being, said Mind CANNOT see the strings being run down from on high in order to jerk and pull them. When the Media BECOMES the story rather than guiding it along, a key vector in the enemy’s collectivist control matrix has itself been distorted and subverted … disrupted.
Donald Trump was the first major public figure in the United States to begin this disruption campaign. Soon after he came down that golden escalator, Trump declared war on the Fake News media. While many of us—including myself—found this endearing and entertaining at the time, we also believed the attempt to ‘expose’ and educate the public on the role of the Media Industrial Complex was somewhat futile, so tight and complete was their entrenchment in the Collective Mind, like a psychological tick too embedded to dislodge, or a metastasized tumor grown too bulbous and callused to remove without destroying the mind of its host.
And yet, when we reframe Trump’s opening salvo—and the information war he has acted as the vanguard and general of ever since—from an attempt to defeat the Media Industrial Complex, and even if we graduate beyond the slightly more plausible attempt to expose said collective, I believe that, by settling on the true brilliance of Trump’s plan—that being, to PROVOKE said Media Industrial Complex—we can sit back and marvel at the entire tapestry, now that the War of Stories has matured and stretched out long enough to form a fuller picture.
You see, I believe Trump wanted to force the Media Industrial Complex to attack him, and by extension to attack all of US … that growing movement of sovereign-minded, freedom-loving, America First patriots, from Anons and digital soldiers to the less engaged, but no less important working class Americans throughout this land who’ve been forgotten, abused and desecrated for far too long.
In forcing the Media to direct all of its narrative ammunition at him, Trump cast them in his own play, painting himself as both protagonist and antagonist, and doing the same for the supposedly separate, supposedly objective and decentralized Media that closed ranks and directed all of its Hydra heads his way, along with enough slings and arrows to blot out the sun during a first presidential term that rendered them stark, naked and exposed for the world to see … and unified in their attempts to sow disunity.
While I have argued for some time that the exposure of the ‘Left,’ Marxist and openly Globalist media rags—from CNN to the Washington Post—was necessary, and while we have all exulted in the schadenfreude of seeing the ‘New Media,’ same as the old media represented by Vice News, BuzzFeed, Vox and others join the Silicon Valley scrap heap of dying and decayed propaganda funnels, there has been one institution, one gnawing, scraping and admittedly, quite cunning beast still in the fold—one still wearing the America First movement, Trumpism itself—as a sheepskin suit, lurching and twitching in its desperation to appear as one of us even as it inevitably and invariably seeks to lead us astray, whipping us up into alternating bouts of anger and despair that it might seek to cannibalize, to stoke and to tend into a fiery frenzy that ultimately consumes its host, or else renders it weak enough to devour.
I am talking about a wolf named FOX.
It can sometimes seem strange to some within the America First movement that people like me consider FOX to be representative of the very worst of the Media Industrial Complex, until I remind them that they were the main Trojan Horse through which the post 9/11 wave of U.S. Patriotism was provoked, collected and misguided into a Forever War in the Middle East that claimed the lives of far too many American soldiers … and countless more innocent civilians in lands whose strife has largely been engineered and encouraged by western Globalists since time immemorial.
I often refer to this period in recent American history as the Patriot Pendulum, and I see it as being responsible for coding a generation of Americans—including myself, at a not so distant point in my journey—with a revulsion of American patriotism, having seen it conflated with jingoism, imperialism and violent, greedy dominance over those deemed lesser.
Of course, the true, dark genius of such a move was the forward-thinking, Hegelian seeding of the Obama era ‘Hope and Change’ movement that rode in like a pale horse to sweep up those Americans disillusioned with the blood-red ‘New Patriotism’ of the FOX and Bush Jr. paradigm, those of us who’d fallen into cynicism and faux intellectualism in order to expose the wolves among us, while falling prey to those brought in to chase them off.
And yet, despite the lessons that SHOULD have been learned over the course of the last generation in the United States, MAGA and America First patriots have, by and large been all too eager to leap right back into the spider’s web, to admit the FOX back into their midst, and the midst of their children and their flock, all because they said the right things at the right time.
This is the same FOX that not only ushered us into an era of American expansionism that poisoned our standing on the world stage to such a degree that it will take another generation to recover, but that also acted as a sacrificial lamb for the Globalist Establishment by being the first of the carrion crows in the Media Industrial Complex to ‘call’ Arizona for Joe Biden on November 3, 2020, thereby giving direct approval to openly Leftist minds and Media to declare victory, and tacit approval for captured minds in the America First zeitgeist to doom and despair.
Add to this the recent decision to ‘settle’ with Dominion Voting Systems for nearly $800 Million in a defamation suit that will set legal and psychological precedent that will make it infinitely harder to push forward with the disclosure and exposure of true election fraud systems in this nation ahead of the 2024 election cycle, and you begin to see why my use of Narrative Shielding terminology can be applied to many theaters in the Information War, and why the wolves among us are often far, far more dangerous and deadly to our movement than those howling and loping on the horizon.
And yet … this piece, again, is not meant to fall prey to that very doom and despair I spend many of my waking hours attempting to dispel and to chase away from this movement. Because I see signs of hope in the splintering of the Media Industrial Complex, and those splinters have formed cracks that are beginning to yawn and shift into fissures.
I believe that, with the recent ‘firing’ of Tucker Carlson, the FOX may have finally twitched and stumbled at the spread of those fissures in the narrative bedrock around it, and in so doing, I believe they have given up the game. Not to us. Not to those in this community who’ve long recognized their fangs beneath the gums, the black fur beneath the wool, but to those ideologically, socially, culturally and politically aligned with us who’ve been caught in a liar’s sleep they have been largely blind to while lashing out against obvious and ultimately inert ghosts of leftism dangled before them like ghoulish specters of the enemy’s true designs.
In revealing the sorts of ideas—the sorts of questions—they can no longer abide providing a platform to, I believe the enemy’s most powerful and subversive propaganda arm has just revealed itself to the largest plurality of the American public than ever before, and in so doing, that they have doomed themselves to follow the very same Crisis Cascade afflicting the rest of the Media Industrial Complex they have spent the better part of the Trump era gleefully mocking and cheering on as their false empire grew on the backs of our movement’s naivety.
Tucker Carlson is one man, not a movement. He’s a mind and a storyteller, and a highly influential one, and I plan to delve deeper into what he could represent and what effects he might visit upon the Collective Mind and the Info War as it continues to ramp up in future pieces, but for now, I want you to consider what his firing represents and the Net Effects it is already visiting upon the last solid pillar of [their] Media Empire.
Don’t shrink back from the wolves at the door. Stand before them, meet their eyes, and move forward with the light you carry, knowing that to drive them back is to drive them over the hills, where a new sun renders their indistinct forms corporeal and mortal, exposed and vulnerable.
We have many more blinking minds coming into the valley of the Great Awakening in the coming days. While many of these minds voted for Trump and endorse the America First movement, they were held sway in a worse sort of prison that has just been broken and dashed, caught in an endless loop of partial awareness, doom and despair.
Now, let’s show them what hope looks like, and watch our power grow in the presence of their awakening.
Truth, like water, seeks its own level. But truth, unlike water has the power to ascend.
And we are ascending.

FOX management is the enemy. Many of their paid shills are very skilled and wonderfully deceptive at forming an enticing conservative narrative but leaving out 'the meat'. The two grifters that took Rush's time slot on the radio are quite clever and, one of them is former CIA. I don't trust Hannity anymore and gave up watching their channel on TV. Maria Bartiromo will be next to leave. I haven't forgiven these crooks since they called AZ on election night 2020. Waiting patiently for Tucker to burn the whole house down now that he's free...
I would like to see you and Just Human dive into the details of the Fox vs Dominion case. It is so clear that the settlement was a way to shift the narrative, to legitimize Dominion against the clear evidence. I believe you and Just Human can expose the fraud in the narrative roll-out. There was a behind the scenes deal between Fox and Dominion to attempt to destroy the narrative that Dominion is stealing elections. I hope you guys can find and expose it.
