Thanks for another gem BB!!!

Your writings and video appearances have helped focus my mind in a way that I find extremely beneficial. You and Chris Paul have helped me gather my many rambling thoughts from over the many years of seeing/feeling them into a useful/more organized fashion that helps me discern things much better in recent times.

The DS Rat Bastards control over the MSM has been very frustrating. Tuning in to it is like looking at Medusa, you'd turn to stone (heads). But I can see in the Briefs that the Overton Goal Posts are moving.

The long & short of it is that with this "improved" mindset (and lots of prayer) I am feeling ComfyAF!

Keep up the great work!

God Wins!

God Bless!!!

Background on the Overton Window, from the place where it originated:

https://www.mackinac.org/OvertonWindow

I find the concept of Overton's Goalpost conceptually similar to Arthur C. Clarke's "Law of Revolutionary Ideas" which goes like this:

Every revolutionary idea — in science, politics, art, or whatever — seems to evoke three stages of reaction. They may be summed up by the phrases:

(1) "It's completely impossible — don't waste my time";

(2) "It's possible, but it's not worth doing";

(3) "I said it was a good idea all along."

https://libquotes.com/arthur-c-clarke/quote/lbx9k8w

Denial, acceptance, endorsement. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Thanks for pointing this out. It's always interesting to me when people come to similar ideas/cyphers via different pathways.

BB- Great article. As a former teacher who used to plagerise 95% of my material - 5% difference being required before reprographics would bulk print - I'm thinking of moulding this concept into a template to be applicable to any scenario where a 'narradigm' - see Clif High - shift is both warranted and desirable. Four years of a degree in Systems Analysis helps to understand how to make the theoritical into the practical. Lifecycles are common place within every industry and interpreting the key parts of OW as the milestones, and your 'goalposts' as the process by which to migrate from milestone to milestone may work. Rules for Radicals and the 5GW describe the operational level, or process, but without TRUTH as ammunition. With TRUTH as ammunition, and also attacking the defender as fraudulent - yes I agree Satanic too* - can only accelarate the process. I may change the 'goalposts' to 'latches' however, both to maintain the theme, but also to faciliate the idea of opening the window to move onto the next milestone.

I already have a scenario involving my local MP as defender, that I will game theory and model before implementing. Hopefully to be documented on this new Substack account. To be continued....

Yes, indeed, how each new (whatever) is greeted by the powers that be! My Dad loved the early writers like him and my brother and I now have his books.... So many of these guys were so visionary!

Good point - there are numerous similar analogies - the boiling frog - and there is a scene in The Sound of Freedom where the three steps occur in real time. The Colombian copper says the girl is lost to the Cartel, but the former trafficker mentions the idea of a 'health visit' to check for a pandemic. Initailly the copper is doubtful but then agrees. How often does that happen in real life? Maybe an equivalent to the idea of 'system of systems' would be an Overton Window of Overton Panes...

Use of the Overton Window by the dark forces implies that 1) they have the ability to know the boundaries of the window at any given time; 2) they have the means and ability to use that known window to deploy narratives to move it in the desired direction; and 3) they can accurately measure the results of their deployment by remapping the boundaries of the window. To see how this is done, I refer to something Jordan Peterson said. If you are a tyrant who is trying to moved the boundaries of public sentiment (Overton's window) you push the boundaries until you encounter resistance, then retreat and wait. But you never retreat to the prior boundary. In this way, gradually over time you advance your agenda, or in your terms, map the changing boundaries of the Overton Window. We have many recent examples of this: Bud Light, the transgender movement, parental rights, Drag Queen Story hours, etc. They accomplish the manipulation by testing the waters with deployments from which they retreat, believing they have made a net gain. But perhaps they don't realize that the Truth movement is rolling over their perceived gains.

Very well said, Rob. I believe this is part of the reverse engineering that patriots have prompted. We've got the truth on our side, but we've sort of had to be re-trained and re-prompted into defending it/asserting it.

Yes, I'm still trying to decide if the threat of masking is yet another test and/or distraction. 99% of the comments in a local article are, "Hell NO, not falling for that again." So, knowing this, can they really be serious or is this something else? At the very least, a test balloon but I suspect designed to keep folks busy."

Expand full comment

Rob, I recommend following Clif High who has indicated he believes the DS have been forced to accelerate their agenda and can no longer back off until we all go quiet, and then make another push years later. Something is telling the DS to get a move on. Clif does speculate as to what. Hence why we are seeing it, or to use the boiling frog analogy, the water has been heated up too fast, and we are jumping out of the pan.

Silver lining is that since most food supplies are toxic, borderline slow-poisoning us into endless chronic conditions and abject physical degradation, it is rather good news. Room for decent non-corporatist food production, room for local markets and farmers markets. To the extent I wonder if some of those events are not some white hats operations. Bye-bye pink glue steaks and bleached chicken and impossible burgers and lab meats.

Please, do not forget the cricket and worm flour factories guys!

They gave me the Anthrax Vax while serving as a Nurse during Operation Desert Storm and then willingly took the COV2 BS 24/7 because I wanted to die, if only then my family would see the poison and not drink. FORTITUDE REGARDLESS OF OUTCOME. I was washed in sin.

The chessboard, the game has been won (we won) but the losers are hoping the last moves change the game, the winner gets distracted with...oh I don’t know, fires, hurricanes, Americans dying. What tears at the heart of the winner? Destruction and death of Americans, 1000 missing children in the Maui fire. Punches are being thrown, the winners heart is bleeding. As the chess game narrows down to just a few moves, people will die. It is war, I hope for a short chess game. Good work BB. You have a brilliant mind!!

It will take me quite awhile to read all the way through this thoughtfully…just leaving a comment before I continue:

I LOVE the Overton Window concept.

And when you write: “ I suppose it’s possible I’m paying way too much attention to the effect these Narratives are having on the Collective Point that rests as both the heart and the fulcrum of both sovereignty and mandate within the Republic.” No…in fact that level of attention is absolutely necessary. We the People are at the helm and it will be up to us what kind of world we create. We are the masters of our universe and the higher thoughts, the spiritual and psychological realm, is a powerful frequency. The law of attraction is at work in our world. The more we share our mind energy (thoughts, beliefs) the more it will come to pass. We often talk about exposure, disclosure, justice…but that is certainly not an end in itself; it is a means to an end which becomes a new beginning. The Overton Window involves persuasion to instill a deep honoring and respect for sovereignty …which the enemy is trying desperately to thwart.

Our collective-mind ship on these days of intensifying stormy seas has a deep strong keel impossible to capsize. It is our Will to reach the New Harbor. The world is changing, a paradigm shift of the Ages is upon us. Has humanity ever even been here before? ❤️🇺🇸🌎

“the most powerful Mind-Movers will lose psychological steam if not bolstered by the Truth“ What a great statement!!

I love your mind, BB ❤️

back to reading…

I have finished reading now. A true Masterpiece of thought, of insight, BB.

“Truth is ALWAYS the Infinite Player on the Game Board”

Well done! Most definitely “a useful cypher”!! Thank you, BB ❤️🇺🇸❤️🌎❤️

Oh, Fearless Tiger! Once again you have exceeded your previous level of educating your readers! There are so many gems in this article that it’s impossible to pick a favorite. Using the two examples of the Overton Goalpost just solidified the steps in my mind and I will be able to better understand where ‘they’ are in their retreat and to effectively use it. THANK YOU! At the risk of repeating myself again, God has truly gifted you with an exceptional mind that we all benefit from greatly, as your positions in this post demonstrate. Reading your article brought a saying to my mind several times: what goes around comes around. We are accelerating AND escalating so much that the timeframe for the enemy to reach the ‘coming around’ point is measurably shorter.

Your point about what we are fighting for trumping fighting against the enemy is the important step for all patriots. Now, the most common statement I hear from normie friends is regarding the double standard of justice. They are getting closer to realizing the truth.

I’d venture to say more and more daily understand the ‘system of systems’ must be defeated and that likewise more are finally realizing the most important work is to rebuild our Constitutional Republic!

God bless you for sharing this gift with us and me my He keep you safe in His hands.🙏

Excellent piece that yields for me a nice visual of the Deep State's diminishing defenses. Each narrative they deploy is a hill with five redoubts, labeled Deny, Diminish, Qualify, Distract and Admit. As the Truth breaches each and then the last, they must teleport to a new hill and expend more ammunition. As you said, eventually they run out of hills and they find themselves defenseless against "those puny little ants." And we win. All at once.

Will see you soon at GART and will be listening for more gems.

I am glad you are finally capitalizing Truth, not necessarily admitting that the Light of Truth is casting shadows on the cave wall of human actions guided by the “prince of the power of air”, who is absolutely subject to the Infinite Power also known as a “strong tower” or goalpost in your vernacular. Nevertheless, keep casting “reductive”seed because it is understood that when received by good soil, it will bear fruit in due time. God bless you and yours.

I sort of capitalize terms like this when I feel it's important. I won't pretend there's a specific pattern I follow, but Truth should be capitalized when used as the spiritual tenet that it is. Thank you.

I had a point where I could not read or understand BB’s writing. Too many words.

Until it wasn’t. Until all the words started to come together to help paint the bigger picture.

Such a beautiful article with so many takeaways.

I just spent 4 days with my normie family and got increasingly agitated each day until anger boiled up inside me at the denial and outright refusal to recognize anything happening outside their own lives.

This article helped me see they have retreated to their comfy place b/c to start recognizing TRUTH they begin to participate in taking down the system they rely on. I will apply this method and hopefully start to recognize small changes quietly with a smile instead of the I-told-you-so moment I not-so-secretly crave. Thanks for rescuing my weekend!

Thanks so much, Lisa. That was certainly my intention when attempting to explain Overton's Goalpost, so I hope it helps others in similarly frustrating situations.
