Bright Brief - What in the Wuhan?!

Escalation, Acceleration ... And Extinction

Using the word, ‘extinction’ in the subhead of today’s Bright Brief may seem a wee bit dramatic, and, you know what? It is.

Of course, as is the case with many of the theories and analysis I advance around these parts, I usually try to be a little more nuanced than surface-level with my choice of words.

Thus, when I use the word ‘extinction’ in this context, I am not referring to the consummation of long-term, Deep State Globalist aims of depopulation, but rather of the extinction of [their] System of Systems itself.

And I believe there are Narrative data points everywhere you look in the current chaotic turnings of the Information War that map onto this reading of events, whether they be Actual or Potential in nature, that this is precisely what is occurring as the Media Industrial Complex is force to cede more ground with each Narrative Deployment, admission, exception and reaction as the War of Stories picks up steam.

When we first entered 2023, I claimed that, in a very broad sense, this year would come to be defined by two words: escalation and acceleration.

While it can be quite safe to make a prediction so vague, I have long tried to distill these thoughts in a way that is useful for those who engage with my writing. We are, after all, in a War of Stories, of Narratives and of weaponized psychological deployments by all sides on the Game Theory Game Board. Escalation of rhetoric, of threat and of tension—Actual or Psychological—is the name of the game, and ironically, it can and often is deployed by both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ actors, with the one side seeking to paralyze and therefore control the Collective Mind as the other seeks to shake it into the slow-blinking clarity of awakening.

I have asserted for quite some time that, whether a given deployment is advanced by ‘our’ side or [theirs,] those deployments are Escalating in terms of their inherent—and possibly earned—sensationalism at the same time as they are Accelerating in terms of frequency both between Deployments and of Macro ‘threats’ that have been mapped out on said Psychological Game Board for the Collective Mind.

Two of the prime threats—perhaps THE two prime threats—that have been positioned to the Collective Mind by the Media Industrial Complex in recent months include Russia and China, the two Super States who ostensibly stand opposed to Western Hegemony, the U.S. Dollar and even Democracy itself, and who have found themselves increasingly-unified by the continued deployments—be they economic sanctions, kinetic action or even, as we will discuss today, covert operations—of the Western bloc, of which the United States is the de facto leader.

That said, as many in this community know, reframing the ‘New Axis’ from standing opposed to U.S. and Western Hegemony to Globalist Hegemony, from the U.S. Dollar to the Petrodollar, and from ‘Democracy’ to Constitutional Republics, the whole ‘Axis & Allies’ of it all takes on new meaning and new context.

And context is the key.

I often write and comment that I am far less interested in the ‘Actual’ of ongoing events than the ‘Potential/Narrative.’ And this is not because the ‘Actual’ is meaningless; far from it. Nothing could BE more meaningful than the truth, which is itself inherent in the discovery of the Actual that underlies the Potential.

That said, the reason I have mostly abandoned the attempt to discern the Actual at the heart of a war named for the dissemination, obfuscation and corruption of Information itself is that it is, in a word … largely impossible to accomplish.

And so, when I see Media Deployments against China on the basis of a ‘Conspiracy Theory’ surrounding the Wuhan Institute of Virology that got many in this community deplatformed, censored and ridiculed just 2-3 short years ago, I don’t have an ‘aha’ or ‘gotcha’ moment in the same way others do—those who believe the media and their Deep State controllers have finally been forced to admit some long-buried, sinful truth.

Rather, I look at the whip and lash of the enemy’s words, and I look for the ‘Why’ that underlies it.

Thus, when I engage with the media ‘turn’ BACK on the Wuhan Institute of Virology—and by extension, on Xi Jinping and China—I map it onto an (incomplete) list of potential paradigms, accepting the following logical foundation:

1. The COVID-19 Scamdemic (whether it was an actual virus, biological weapon or simply a mass PsyOp that justified Orwellian and authoritarian lockdowns throughout most of the world) originated at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

To me, this logical foundation is relatively inarguable, as it covers all potential readings of the ‘origins’ of COVID-19, from a deadly virus, to an overblown virus, a deadly engineered pathogen to a chemical weapon, or a largely innocuous (Actually) PsyOp that was catastrophically damaging from a psychological, economic and societal perspective.

Now, let’s map the intent behind the media ‘turn’ on this Narrative, which is the rare case of a ‘turn’ BACK to a previous denial. A Narrative Whiplash, if you will.

Let’s try to map the ‘WHY’ of said turn, if we can map nothing else about it.

1. The Media Industrial Complex is REACTING to the increasing proximity of Chinese and Russian interests, as a visit by top Chinese diplomat Wang Yi to Moscow last week is being mirrored by the projected visit of Xi Jinping, as the Western Matrix loses more and more control over both the Actual and the Narrative in their Prussian Proxy State of Ukraine.

2. The Media Industrial Complex is DISTRACTING in an attempt to head off coming disclosures regarding the TRUE origins of the ‘COVID-19’ Scamdemic—origins that, whether they occurred inside the Sovereign territory of China or not, were funded, approved and coordinated by the United States, namely the NIH under Dr. Anthony Fauci—further positioning the U.S. Administrative State as a collection of collectivists seemingly bent on the fomentation of large-scale international strife and chaos in order to push forward Globalist agendas in service of dark masters.

3. The BEAST represented by the Globalist Deep State is lashing out at the Sovereign power structures that threaten it most immediately, fixing its eye on China in an attempt to whip up the fervor of a traumatized Western population into the tacit approval of kinetic action against the rising powers in the East.

Of course, this is hardly an exhaustive list, and as with most explorations at Burning Bright, I think a combination of the three—with additional factors not distilled here today—is the most likely.

But what I want to leave you with isn’t merely a thought experiment of mapping a Cognitive Constellation regarding the Media’s Turn on Wuhan—a concept I have been defining and exploring in the ongoing Layer Cake series—but rather a boost of encouragement regarding what it all means, in the most reductive and Macro sense imaginable.

Quite simply, the Globalist Establishment’s allowance—no, their full-throated endorsement—of a paradigm they wouldn’t touch just two months ago is as clear a sign as any we have yet seen in this War of Stories that they occupy the Finite side of the Game Theory Game Board, and that they are running out of ammunition.

Taken in congruence with the ongoing—even playful—seeding by Donald Trump himself as to the building rhetoric surrounding World War 3, and if you do not yet have the tantalizing impression that the planning on display is an utter marvel to behold, and that it will ultimately be to the benefit of all sovereign minds, spirits and nations the world over … I believe you need to zoom out, and consider the following, oft-repeated truism I advance in these writings:

Winning—much like awakening—happens very slowly … and then all at once.

A promising prospect for us. Quite an unhappy one, I think, for [them.]

Until next time, stay Positive, stay Based and most importantly … stay Bright.

Click on the following header images in order to check out this week’s Burning Bright appearances on Badlands Media and beyond.

On Badlands Story Hour, Chris Paul and I had a great discussion on the 2006 film Children of Men, which spun out into a discussion of the ‘Liberal Gaze’ and a treatise on why engaging with ‘enemy’ storytelling is a worthwhile endeavor.

On the Devolution Power Hour, Jon Herold, Patrick Gunnels and myself had a fun, funny and encouraging conversation about blackpilling in the Info War, and how to develop a ‘winning’ perspective.

On Game Theory, Sean Morgan and I discussed much of what was featured in this Brief, examining the Media turn on Wuhan and Ukraine through the lens of Fifth-Gen Warfare.

And finally, if you’re looking for a more personal Burning Bright appearance, check out my interview on Patriots: Behind the Mic, where we discussed my martial arts background and my upbringing, and how it formed the mind SOME of you like listening to, for some crazy reason!
