Well, that’s pretty much it for 2023 … which I’m officially dubbing The Year of The Mindfuck.
I am doing that against the advice of my attorney, who is (a) trying to keep me out of German prison for as long as possible, and (b) trying to stop me from gratuitously alienating whatever remains of my former readership and going totally broke.
I’m not making that particularly easy for him.
The thing is, no one wants to hear that they have been mindfucked. People want to hear that other people have been mindfucked. Which … they have. Other people have been thoroughly mindfucked. But that doesn’t mean that other people — i.e., the people who want to hear that other people have been mindfucked, but not that they, themselves, have been mindfucked — haven’t also been mindfucked, which is what I’ve been mostly writing about in 2023, which, as Matt Taibbi put it in a blurb for one of my books, “probably this is not a profitable life choice.”
So it goes in the political satire racket. Sometimes you are hailed as a “prophet,” other times you’re scorned as a “dissension-sowing asshole,” censored into Internet oblivion by beloved billionaire free-speech defenders, and prosecuted for trumped-up “hate crimes.” It depends which way the wind is blowing.
It hasn’t been blowing my way this year.
On top of which, I’ve been pissing into it, the wind, at more or less every opportunity. I know it’s dumb, but I can’t seem to stop. Something about watching people being mindfucked over and over again “triggers” me, or punches my buttons, or something.
But enough about me … let’s get to the mindfucking. Due to the voluminosity of it, I won’t be able to review it all in detail but I’ll try to cover most of the mindfucking highlights.
Ready? OK, here we go.
The mindfucking started in January with the birth of the Musk Cult and the whitewashing of Twitter, and the trickle of “revelations” about “mistakes that were made” during the “Covid pandemic.” The Powers That Be needed to memory-hole the story of what actually happened (and didn’t actually happen) in 2020-2022 and enshrine the official Covid narrative in history. To achieve this they needed to mindfuck some people, not the Covidian cultists who they had already mindfucked, the other people, who they hadn’t been able to mindfuck. It was obvious that we were about to be subjected to The Mother of All Limited Hangouts.
If your memory of what actually happened (and didn’t actually happen) in 2020 is little hazy, here’s an excerpt from that column, which I published in January.
“In March and April of 2020, in the course of roughly five to six weeks, the majority of societies throughout the world were transformed into pathologized-totalitarian police states. A global ‘shock-and-awe’ campaign was conducted. Constitutional rights were suspended. The masses were locked down inside their homes, where they were subjected to the most massive official propaganda blitzkrieg in human history. Goon squads roamed the streets of Europe, the USA, the UK, Canada, Australia, Asia, the Americas, and elsewhere, beating and arresting people for being outdoors without permission and not wearing medical-looking masks. Corporate media around the world informed us that life as we knew it was over … a ‘New Normal’ was coming, and we needed to get used to it. The entire official pandemic narrative was rolled out during those first few weeks. Everything. Masks. Mandatory ‘vaccines.’ ‘Vaccination passports.’ The segregation of ‘the Unvaccinated.’ The censorship and demonization of dissent. Everything. The whole ‘New Normal’ package. It was rolled out all at once, globally.”
Now, over three years later, the facts are indisputably clear to everyone but the hopelessly brainwashed. There was no global epidemiological emergency … no legitimate justification whatsoever for that initial “shock-and-awe” campaign, or the totalitarian “New Normal” it ushered into being.
However, by January of 2023, that wasn’t a problem for The Powers That Be, as most of the masses had been hopelessly brainwashed, and they would break down and start spastically gibbering at you like frightened hyenas if you confronted them with facts.
No, the problem for The Powers That Be was us, i.e., those of us who had never bought the PSYOP. By the end of 2022, we comprised what you call a sizable minority … a problematic, pissed-off, sizable minority. So we needed to be promptly and extensively mindfucked. We needed to be managed, decoyed, distracted, buried in minutiae, partial revelations, limited hangouts, official inquiries, and so on. Above all, we needed to be made to feel like we were getting revenge on The Powers That Be. And we needed to be made to feel this way without actually endangering The Powers That Be, or inconveniencing them in any significant way.
Enter Elon Musk & Co.
Yes, that’s right, Elon Musk, the multi-billionaire military contractor! At last, a savior had arrived to deliver us from the Cabal of Wokeness, and Cultural Marxism, and Globalistism! Vanquished were the evil Wokian censors and shadowbanners of “old bad” Twitter! It was Morning in America Again!
An Elon’s-ass-kissing contest ensued. Internet hucksters, social media influencers, and all manner of money-worshiping toadies competed against each other to get their lips on the Muskian anal orifice! This salacious spectacle went on for months …
Meanwhile, the sleight-of-hand artists got to work, distracting folks with groundbreaking stories like how the Pfizer Corporation had engineered THE MUTANT COMMUNIST VIRUS BIOWEAPON that had caused the pandemic that never happened and triggered THE MASS FORMATION PSYCHOSIS that prompted The Powers That Be to go bonkers and launch the PSYOP that the sleight-of-hand artists were memory-holing right before our eyes …
… or something more or less along those lines.
And then, right on cue, came the Twitter Files story! Do you recall, way back in 2008, when Obama took office, admitted that we had “tortured some folks” in Iraq, and so on, and then decided against prosecuting Bush and his crew for launching a textbook war of aggression, murdering hundreds of thousands of people, and destabilizing and restructuring the Middle East, based on a lie about WMDs? Do you recall all the limited hangouts back then? The Abu Ghraib scandal? The mea culpas? Is your memory of all that a little “hazy”? Imagine what people’s memories of “Russiagate” and “Covid” will be like in twenty years.
People’s memories don’t get hazy just by accident. If they did, The Powers That Be wouldn’t need to distract us, redirect our attention, and otherwise relentlessly mindfuck us. Which is how Class-A limited hangouts work. You feed people a juicy part of the story, so they forget about the rest of the story. You redirect their attention away from the globally-coordinated simulation of “a worldwide epidemiological emergency” and the roll-out of new totalitarian “health measures” — “health measures” that become permanent features of society, like the post-9/11 “security measures” did — with a story about US “Red/Blue” politics, government overreach, “woke” bad apples, and the so-called “Censorship Industrial Complex.”
I don’t mean to denigrate the Twitter Files story. I really don’t, and I have made that clear to Matt and other Twitter Files journalists. Had I been in their positions, I would have done the same thing. I would have gladly taken whatever Musk gave me and reported on it, exactly as they did. And, no, the Twitter Files story is not at all a “nothingburger.” It is one of the most important stories about censorship in the 21st Century so far, despite the fact that it is also a limited hangout … like Abu Ghraib and most of those other “Iraq-post-mortem” stories were.
In real life — as opposed to the Hollywood version, or the social-media version, where people are conditioned to see everything in black-and-white terms and judge everyone as “good” or “bad,” as “truth-telling heroes” or “controlled opposition” — historical events have different aspects, and sometimes even contradictory aspects. One aspect doesn’t cancel out the others.
Some people absolutely hate it when I say this, but the kind of mindfucking I’ve been writing about is not intentionally perpetrated by “bad guys.” In fact, most of it is perpetrated by “the good guys.” In other words, yes, of course the Twitter Files are a limited hangout, and part of the mindfuck, but the Twitter Files journalists are not the mindfuckers. And Elon Musk is not Mindfucker-in-Chief. The kind of mindfucking I’m talking about is not a conspiracy; it’s built into the system. It’s how the system protects itself.
Ideological systems are not just sets of interconnected components and procedures. They are organic entities, self-sustaining organisms, with survival programming, just like you and me. They react when threatened, like any other organism, like our bodies react to mutating cells, invasive pathogens, and other internal threats. They perceive (or register) these threats, and take defensive action against them. The more totalitarian the ideological system is, the more aggressive its reaction to internal threats will be.
In our global-capitalist ideological system, mindfucking is one of the primary means of dealing with internal threats. Global capitalism cannot afford to do the Orwellian boot-stomping-your-face thing, not for extended periods, anyway. It needs to maintain a simulation of “freedom,” and some semblance of “the rule of law,” so consumers will continue shopping, and not … you know, launch an armed rebellion.
Anyway, that’s the kind of mindfucking I’m talking about. It’s how the system knows exactly when to release a certain limited hangout, or when to launch an anti-Semitism panic, or an attempted Wokester coup at Free-Speech-Twitter HQ, or a Literal Russian-Agent-Hitler sequel, or when to shut down the aforementioned limited hangout for no actual reason whatsoever, or manipulate a belligerent political satirist into obsessively writing about exactly what it wants him to be writing about.
Yes, you read that last part right. If you thought I think I am immune to the mindfuckery … I don’t. I’m not. I get mindfucked too. For example, I got mindfucked into travelling to London and taking part in The Michael Shellenberger Show in June, and wasting months afterward helping to draft and gather VIP-signatories for the “Westminster Declaration,” which turned out to be the weakest popcorn fart in the history of popcorn farts.
My foray into pretentious NGO-activism did not end well …
And then I spent most of the remainder of the year obsessing over my prosecution for “Nazi hate Tweets” here in Germany and raising money for my “legal defense fund,” and so on, which, OK, there’s another example of something that is both an important matter and, at the same time, a colossal mindfuck (i.e., for me, personally, but also for people who will be bullied into censoring themselves by the example the authorities are making of me).
But that wasn’t it for the mindfucking. Oh, no, the mindfucking coup de grâce was still to come!
If The Powers That Be had consciously set out to come up with something that would hammer the final nail into the coffin of the “anti-New Normal resistance,” they couldn’t have done any better than October 7, also known as “Israel’s 9/11.” Two and a half months of 24/7 balls-out mindfuckery have broken the brains of everyone whose brains hadn’t already been broken. It started with “the 40 beheaded babies” story and “the super-suicide Hamas rocket” story, and rapidly devolved into this …
I tried to comment on the story dispassionately, and was instantly set upon by both shrieking pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian fanatics. It seems I’m both a genocidal, atrocity-denying Israel apologist and a genocidal, atrocity-denying, anti-Semitic Hamas apologist!
The neo-Roman orgy of hatred and projectile spewing of propagandistic vomitus is ongoing, as I’m sure you are aware, so I’ll spare you the gory details on that one.
My point is, the October 7 attack and Israel’s ongoing liquidation of Gaza have obliterated any remaining shred of clarity about what’s actually happening, globally, and has re-polarized the “populist” resistance to it.
The Red Team has become the new “cancel culture” mob …
And the Blue Team is “shocked and horrified” that the new totalitarianism they helped usher into being during 2020-2022 is suddenly being turned against them …
So it goes in the bug-eyed, stark raving Schizotocracy that is The New Normal Reich. One by one, opposing demographics are being mindfucked into aligning with The Powers That Be and going full-fascist, almost as if the whole global-ideological system were going totalitarian, and what it needed to do was whip the masses into a mindless, hate-drunk, frenzy of zealotry, and pit us all against each other, and then switch the sides and do it again, over and over, until we don’t trust anyone or anything, and we literally can’t even think.
But I wouldn’t worry too much about that … I’m pretty sure The Powers That Be will be happy to do our thinking for us. They are getting rather good at that, and we are getting rather good at letting them.
OK, that’s it for me for 2023 … merry mindfucked Christmas and happy mindfucked New Year!

Because, mindfuckery ain’t at all a 2023 phenomenon, the institution dealing in the grandest lies & deceit for over a millennium just made everyone believe so. Like politicians, religious people like to pretend they invented & lead everything.
(Which is not surprising, given that politicians and religious leaders were kinda the same thing up until the 1700’s with the enlightenment period and the radical idea of secular governments and so on.)
Mindfuckery is just the way of the world, so it seems. And humans are not really fixable, unfortunately. So, the key to the game I guess is, to remain in hell without despair.

Your reification of `vocabulary propaganda’ sent me back to a thin volume,
“The Question of German War Guilt,” produced by Karl Jaspers not long after
his liberation from a concentration camp. In it he says over and over:
“We Germans must learn how to speak to one another again.”
Years ago in rural Maine I met a remarkable writer and thinker, a woman named Carolyn Chute. She referred to our divisiveness this way:
It’s not left and right,
It’s up and down.
All us people down here struggling,
while those at the top are having a good time.
Our divisiveness is largely manufactured, by elites using the age-old control strategy of divide and rule. We are conditioned to think that having the correct beliefs, about things over which we have no control, is of primary importance. We don’t even want to converse with people who disagree with us about climate, or vaccines, even though what we believe about those things has no influence on reality or on policy. The idea of ‘reaching agreement’ with the wrong-believers seems absurd to us, whichever side we are on.

Certainly! Here’s the information you requested about the keyword:
C.J. Hopkins: The New Normal and the Third Reich according to monica
C.J. Hopkins is an American writer and political commentator who has written extensively about the COVID-19 pandemic and its implications for society. In his writings, Hopkins has drawn parallels between the current situation and the rise of the Third Reich in Nazi Germany.
Hopkins argues that the measures taken by governments around the world to control the pandemic, such as lockdowns, mask mandates, and vaccine passports, are similar to the tactics used by the Nazis to control the German population. He also argues that the media and the scientific establishment have been complicit in promoting a narrative of fear and panic that has led to the erosion of civil liberties and the rise of authoritarianism.
Hopkins’ views have been met with criticism from some, who argue that he is exaggerating the similarities between the current situation and the Third Reich. However, his writings have also resonated with many people who feel that their freedoms are being threatened by the pandemic response.
Hopkins’ work is a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about the COVID-19 pandemic and its implications for society. His writings offer a unique perspective on the current situation and provide a warning about the dangers of authoritarianism.

Great article CJ. For a while now I’ve had the premonition that the problem is actually a lot worse than just “corporate fascism” or greedy banksters and all that. There is a kind of deep disconnect between the mass worldview and what the elite or billionaire class, especially the old money occultist plutocracy (and their carefully cultivated intel agency propaganda and mindfuck assets) are willing to say and do in order to achieve various long term goals like “Agenda 2030” and such. It looks on some levels like there is some kind of “breakaway civilization” in possession of tightly held ultimate technology, who then push the deployment of more mundane but still scary “public” technology for surveillance and mass MK implementations, which came to a new level of sophistication and malevolence with the CV19 psy-op.
There is a wealth of information on the subject of “Exopolitics” published by people like Dr. Michael Salla, also the three books by late William Mills Tompkins (MIIC employee), and to a lesser extent guys writers like Joseph P. Farrell (some hits and some misses, but pretty observant researcher). But of all of them, the information you can get from a “regular guy” named Tony Rodrigues, who has done many video interviews over the last half decade or so, seems to my sensibilities and “gut intuition” to be well correlated with the vast scope of arcane and difficult information in the “conspiracy” oeuvre I have read and absorbed for the last 30 years or more.
Read the free Amazon “Sample” of his book below and see how it strikes you. Again, context is probably critical and if you don’t have any, it will probably come off like some fancy LARPing… but if you do more homework for a few months, you might begin to see the connections and relevance.

Glad to hear it, looking forward to your next anthology.
I imagine you’ve already considered this, but I’ll throw it out there in case you haven’t: have you thought of audio publishing your books, like on Amazon or other book selling platforms?
My girlfriend and I used to self-publish crappy mini-romance novellas on Amazon (2016-2018ish), back when it used to be easily profitable, before the Amazon caught on to the scam. My girlfriend’s brother (who first introduced us to it) grossed over $1 million one year (maybe 2017, can’t remember). We don’t do it anymore, but he still does, and he says his audio division is 60%-70% of his revenue.
I just learned this a few months ago after reading a section of Zone 23 to my girlfriend; she’s more of an audiobook/podcast listener, and mentioned she wished your Zone 23 was in audiobook format. I was shocked to learn the percentage her brother made just from audio.
Yes, I realize your genre isn’t soft-porn romance (although you could put Zone 23 into the romance category on Amazon and see how it flies), and yes, maybe audio doesn’t do that well for you, but still, an uptick in revenue is an uptick in revenue, and if you read/recorded/published the books yourself the additional cost for equipment probably isn’t much. Maybe try a couple and see how it goes?
I know you’re in judicial hell right now and probably strapped for time, but thought it can’t hurt to throw it out there. Your writing is superb, audiobooking could open up a whole new market and customer type and bring in additional money. I learned about you from Catherine Austin Fitts Solari Report. Your humor and writing got me through some really really tough dark times during covid nonsense, so thank you. For 13 years I worked as a clinical laboratory scientist (U.S. hospital laboratory tech), and when the authorities first announced covid lockdowns, I knew immediately it was a terribly anti-scientific way of managing an infectious disease (if it even was an infectious agent). But I didn’t understand how to makes sense or make my way in this New Normal Global Nonsense, I was just terrified. Everybody had lost their minds overnight; I figured if the president wanted to call out a national “Kill The Unvaccinated Day” I’d be dead, and for awhile there it seemed that’s where it was going (I was fired last year for refusing to wear a mask any longer at a Bay Area hospital, haven’t done hospital work since). But thanks to people like you, the Solari Report, RFK Jr., and so many others, I was able to somewhat sort of wrap my mind around the global power apparatus that dictates world events. It’s bad enough to slowly wake up to how you’ve been mindfucked your whole life, but it’s even worse when you learn you’ve played a role in the mindfucking of others. Oh well, what do you do…
Anyway, just wanted to say this. Thanks again for sharing your keen intellect and unique perspective with the world.

Title: The Impending Economic Crisis: A Closer Look at the Fundamental Problems. Its the accounting system not the economy stupid.
In recent times, concerns about the state of the global economy have been mounting, with experts warning about the severity of the challenges we face. One such expert, Tim Morgan, has highlighted some critical issues that demand our attention. It is imperative to delve into these concerns and explore the underlying problems that may be driving our economy towards a precarious precipice.
Morgan’s assertion that for every dollar of “growth” we are taking on several dollars of new liabilities raises a red flag about the sustainability of our economic model. This phenomenon points to a fundamental imbalance between growth and financial responsibility. It prompts us to question the quality and authenticity of the so-called growth that is being pursued.
Furthermore, the reliance on borrowing or money-printing as the proposed fixes for our economic woes is cause for serious reflection. These measures may provide temporary relief, but they do not address the root causes of our economic challenges. Instead, they can potentially exacerbate the existing problems, leading to a deeper crisis in the future.
The issue of unmanageable commitments adds another layer of complexity to the predicament. As a society, we have made promises and commitments that may not be feasible given the current economic realities. This mismatch between commitments and resources has the potential to create widespread instability and disillusionment.
One of the fundamental aspects that Morgan’s statement brings to light is the concept of “everything bubble” in asset prices. This refers to the pervasive inflation of asset values across various sectors, which is unsustainable in the long run. The inevitable bursting of this bubble could have far-reaching consequences, affecting not only financial markets but also the real economy.
Delving deeper into these concerns, it becomes evident that the underlying problem may stem from the very system through which we measure and account for economic activity. The mention of double-entry bookkeeping alludes to a systemic issue in the way we quantify and record financial transactions. This prompts us to consider the accuracy and relevance of our current accounting practices in capturing the true essence of economic value.
Moreover, the notion of a measurement problem related to the abstract nature of monetary units raises profound questions about the foundation of our economic framework. The fact that a monetary unit is an abstract unit of account implies that our entire economic system is built upon intangible representations of value. This abstraction may lead to distortions in our understanding of real economic dynamics, potentially contributing to misaligned policies and decisions.
Another critical point raised is the concept of the Accounting identity, which highlights a crucial discrepancy in our approach to measuring economic activity. The emphasis on measuring based on debt rather than tangible units of energy or real resources underscores a fundamental flaw in our assessment of economic wealth. By prioritizing debt-based metrics over tangible assets, we may be perpetuating a distorted view of prosperity and sustainability.
In light of these profound insights, it is evident that we are facing a paradigmatic challenge that goes beyond superficial economic indicators. The very foundation of our economic system, including how we measure value and account for resources, warrants a comprehensive reevaluation.
To address these pressing concerns, it is imperative to consider alternative frameworks for measuring economic activity and wealth. This may involve exploring concepts such as energy accounting, which seeks to quantify economic value based on tangible energy resources rather than abstract monetary units. By incorporating a more tangible and fundamental basis for measuring value, we can potentially gain a clearer understanding of genuine economic prosperity and sustainability.
Furthermore, reexamining our approach to financial management and accountability is paramount. Relying solely on debt-based metrics may lead to a skewed perception of economic health. Embracing a more holistic measurement approach that encompasses real resources and productive capacity can provide a more accurate depiction of our economic reality.
In conclusion, the concerns raised by Tim Morgan shed light on deep-seated issues within our economic system that demand urgent attention. By critically evaluating the underlying problems related to measurement, accounting, and systemic imbalances, we can pave the way for a more resilient and sustainable economic framework. It is imperative for policymakers, economists, and society as a whole to engage in meaningful discourse and action towards addressing these fundamental challenges before they escalate into an unprecedented crisis.
To the victor then the spoils and as well as writing the history so shall the victor perpetuate the debt based accounting system and accounting unit.
Angola leaving Opec, African Oil reserves the current conflicts in Ukraine , Gaza and the Sohal region all point to a myth written into history revolving around scarcity and wickedness in the human condition.

Hi CJ,
I was just wondering if the German public knows that the USA destroyed the nordstream pipeline? Here in the USA it seems to me that many are just pretending to avoid realizing that they have been played by their Government for decades now. No matter what the issue, girls are boys, boys are girls or if you want to be a zebra, that’s OK too. I mean Ukraine good guys, Russia bad guys, Ukraine nazi’s now good guys, Russia always bad guys. As soon as I saw the babies on bayonets spiel after Oct 7 I had to laugh thinking that “are they that stupid to try this again?” Of course the answer was yes. 9700 civilians killed in 2 years of war in Ukraine but 10,000 civilians killed in Gaza in a month but Putin bad guy, Israel good guy. And we all know that Israel never interferes in our USA elections, right? Some ass hat politician here named dick durban just put forth a bill that would give citizenship to illegal aliens if they join the military as not any of the branches have met their recruiting goals. (maybe people waking up?) But my thought would be it is far easier to get people who have no semblance of what is left of the culture to open fire on US citizens than it would be for people born and raised here. My guess on whats next will be a giant financial crisis to make the last one in 07 to look like a walk in the park. We all remember how all those bad bankers went to jail right? If you don’t remember that you probably will soon, or any other thing they want you to think or do. These people are satanic and my best example is that they named a building after Madeleine Albright who thought that 500,000 dead Iraqi babies were “worth it”.

C.J. says the Twitter Files story is one of the most important stories about censorship in the 21st Century. He then calls it mind fuck, a “limited hang out”. The left is successful because they are not picky about their allies. When the trumpet sounds all the various intersectional left fetishes band together and attack their perceived emeries. Not C.J. Hopkins.
Unless someone signs on to C.J.’s “Globocap©” or whatever his precise definition of the problem is at the moment, C.J. is ready to shake their dust off his feet. Elon Musk hasn’t done enough. He should dump his entire $44 Billion for C.J.’s “truth”. Matt Taibbi and Michael Shellenberger their thousands of hours work pro bono and testimony before Congress, that’s a limited hangout.
When everyone except yourself is “mind fucked” Matt Taibbi is right, “this probably this is not a profitable life choice.”
