They say if you cut the head off a snake the body will die. But what if the snake has multiple heads? Hence the fear surrounding the mythical creature of the hydra (well that and being giant and sprouting more heads and all of that). When we look at the modern world there are many ideas as to what gives it its power. What makes Babylon tick so to speak. There are many thoughts, ideas, and “conspiracies” (as the CIA would say) regarding the “elites”, New World Order, and things of that nature.
However I don’t think there’s much of a “conspiracy” going on and as a matter of fact most of the reasons that the modern world is the way it is comes from things that are in plain sight for those that have eyes to see. I would say that there are three major “heads” so to speak of the hydra of the modern world. I don’t point these out to give people the idea that they can slay them, this is a hydra that will collapse on its own in due time. Rather I point these out so one can be aware.
Also these heads are interconnected and the first head could be said to be the stem from which the other heads sprout and gain their power, the first head facilitates much of everything else and without it, the other heads would likely dry up and die. Again these aren’t “conspiracies” but rather truths that you can make what you will of. Money and power go hand and hand and those with both will use them to influence their vision of what the world should be. That’s not conspriacy that’s human nature but let’s get started.
The First Head Of The Hydra Of The Modern World – Central Banks
So there has been a lot of ink spilled about central banking and its practices. Now I don’t want to go too far out into conspiracy land but it’s a fact that most countries in the world are run by central banks and that the central banks control the money supply of those countries. And when you have control of a country’s money supply you have a lot of power in that country. That’s just common sense. Now whether they use this power for good or ill is up for debate. I would say ill but there are plenty that would say good.
But that’s not what’s important here, what’s important here is looking at a power structure. Central banks have tons of power. There is a reason that pretty much every religion and sane society declared the practice of usury a sin. Now defenders of usury will say that they didn’t really mean that but I’ll let you decide for yourself. Also I’ll note that the modern definition of usury may be different than the older one. Meaning what qualifies as “unreasonably high” may differ from age to age and belief system to belief system.
What central banking also does is concentrate money and power more than Capitalism and Communism ever could hope to. Both could be considered pawns of the scheme if anything. Again you can do the research for yourself there are plenty of resources out there on the subject (though some are getting banned). Regardless of which way you slice it, central banks have a lot of power. Could be a good thing, could be a bad but the fact remains. Central banks are tied to money and power.
The Second Head Of The Hydra Of The Modern World – Hollywood/Media
When you look at the United States President Trump people generally fall into two camps. They either love him with a intense fury or they hate him with a fiery passion. I fall into neither camp. I think he’s a good salesman (make of that what you will), understands persuasion, and frankly can be entertaining at times. But one thing I do like about him is that he has people questioning the media, something that is long overdue, but hey what you gonna do? After central banks the next most powerful head would be the media (not just news but music and such as well) and of course Hollywood.
More and more things are popping up about the corruption in the music industry and Hollywood from rings of sexual criminals to Satanic practices and more. It was once thought a joke that you had to sell your soul to the devil to get rich and famous but now seems like that’s a dead serious statement. I kid, but not that much. Regardless Hollywood, music, and the media can completely control the world and its opinions. It literally shapes the minds of mankind (just look at the Corona virus, think of it what you will but it had 80% of the population on the same page).
Story tellers have greater power and Hollywood is the most powerful concentration of power in this world. That might sound like a grand statement to make but its a true one. Hollywood almost single-handedly controls mankind’s mind. This isn’t a conspiracy but just the fact of how mass dissemination and story telling works. Maybe this a good thing…or maybe not. The point remains that the media is extremely powerful and a head of the hydra of the modern world.
The Third Head Of The Hydra Of The Modern World – National Governments
So like I said most of these really grow out of the first head which is the central banks. Without the central banks Hollywood wouldn’t have the iron grip it has nor would national governments be beholden to their interests. National governments acts as a sort of enforcement head for the hydra. Look at the central banks as the life giving head of the hydra, the media as the mesmerizing head of the hydra, and the national governments as the enforcement/attacking head of the hydra.
Go against the wishes of any of the heads of the hydra and before you know it you’ll have bombs dropped on your head until you’ve been sufficiently freedomized and democratized enough. Likewise exist within the state and go against the wishes hard enough and you’ll have your door kicked in and “served and protected” into the next life. This isn’t to be anti-government or anything like that just the nature of the thing. The hydra needs a head with teeth and this is it.
Those that stand against the hydra/Babylon/modern world or whatever you want to call it fall before it. Like Rome in its prime, it isn’t defeated with guns or swords but rather through its own hubris and arrogance. God and nature have their day but the dragon does have it time in the sun as well so to speak. Again none of this is necessarily to make value judgement (maybe the modern world is a great thing) or to talk about “conspiracies” (everything lain out is pretty logical and in plain sight). But rather to try to get an honest look at the current state of things.
So What Does One Do With This Information?
Well the same thing one does with any information, and that is make informed decisions. First off it’s foolish to go the whole “Imma fight the government route” the only people who talk about that are FBI agents and morons. Rather just make informed decisions. With as unstable as an economy run by central banks is and you’re retirement and savings in the hands of a couple of men who can do what they will with it then maybe it makes sense to grow some of your own vegetables, learn the basics of bushcraft, and not be so reliant.
With Hollywood the way it is maybe look for better sources of stories and entertainment. Maybe turn off the news and not get sucked into its propaganda and negative cycle. Maybe don’t buy modern music of any genre and rather listen to indie stuff and the classics. Maybe give unto the government which is theirs but not ardently defend people who look different than you getting bombed and shot. Or maybe none of the above, I don’t know.
Like I said it’s your decision to do what you will with. Maybe you think the modern world is great and maybe you’re right. I think there something rotten about the whole thing but I could be dead wrong. Maybe the woods and quiet life is for me but not for others. I don’t know. All I ask is that you be aware and take an honest look at things. Do your own research, maybe you think this is all nonsense. Well look into it and not just with official sources but look at both sides of the issue and see what you come away with. Maybe it’ll be different than me, maybe it’ll be better. Who knows, but always keep your eyes open because it is the truth that will set you free.
