Super-Entity: Proof of Conspiracy

Post by davedan »

Ex-director of the CIA, John Brennan, was speaking to Congress about Russian interference with the 2016 election and gave one of the most amazing description of conspiracy. All this, Brennan attributed to Russia. But what if there was a super-national organization with the power, connections, and motivation to do exactly what Brennan attributes to Putin?

"it runs the gamut from targeted assassinations of dissidents, of members of the media, of the -- inside of Russia, as well as outside of Russia -- to getting people on their payroll in foreign governments to carry out their -- their actions, to the -- their efforts in Ukraine, as not just the military takeover of Crimea, but their basic intervention into eastern Ukraine with their intelligence and paramilitary services, to the active propagation of propaganda and disinformation as they try to besmirch and tarnish individuals, as well as the use of blackmail, Kompromat, that they would be able to then leverage for their own purposes. So it -- it really does run the gamut from the -- the most heinous and -- and violent to that which is much more subtle and insidious."

Well it turns out that there is such an entity. According to a scientific paper published by the Zurich Institute of Technology, studying 43,000 multinational corporations. It turns out that 147 rule them all. The way the 147 mega-companies were identified was because the same people (elite) were controlling stockholders in these companies.

CEO's come and go, but the controlling stock-holders who sit on the boards of these companies drive policy decision. When mistakes are made and these companies get caught up in corruption, money laundering, ect; the CEO takes the fall, but the stockholders stay the same.

"all of their ownership was held by other members of the super-entity" - New Scientist

Good post. People may wonder why this information is not more generally known. The limited number of companies that own most of the media outlets could be part of the answer. Poor education is also a factor.

6 Giant Corporations Control The Media, And Americans Consume 10 Hours Of "Programming" A Day

Submitted by Michael Snyder via The Economic Collapse blog,

If you allow someone to pump hours of “programming” into your mind every single day, it is inevitable that it is eventually going to have a major impact on how you view the world. In America today, the average person consumes approximately 10 hours of information, news and entertainment a day, and there are 6 giant media corporations that overwhelmingly dominate that market. In fact, it has been estimated that somewhere around 90 percent of the “programming” that we constantly feed our minds comes from them, and of course they are ultimately controlled by the elite of the world. So is there any hope for our country as long as the vast majority of the population is continually plugging themselves into this enormous “propaganda matrix”?

Just think about your own behavior. Even as you are reading this article the television might be playing in the background or you may have some music on. Many of us have gotten to the point where we are literally addicted to media. In fact, there are people out there that become physically uncomfortable if everything is turned off and they have to deal with complete silence.

It has been said that if you put garbage in, you are going to get garbage out. It is the things that we do consistently that define who we are, and so if you are feeding your mind with hours of “programming” from the big media corporations each day, that is going to have a dramatic affect on who you eventually become.

These monolithic corporations really do set the agenda for what society focuses on. For example, when you engage in conversation with your family, friends or co-workers, what do you talk about? If you are like most people, you might talk about something currently in the news, a television show that you watched last night or some major sporting event that is taking place.

Virtually all of that news and entertainment is controlled by the elite by virtue of their ownership of these giant media corporations.

I want to share some numbers with you that may be hard to believe. They come directly out of Nielsen’s “Total Audience Report“, and they show how much news and entertainment the average American consumes through various methods each day…

Watching live television: 4 hours, 32 minutes

Watching time-shifted television: 30 minutes

Listening to the radio: 2 hours, 44 minutes

Using a smartphone: 1 hour, 33 minutes

Using Internet on a computer: 1 hour, 6 minutes

When you add all of those numbers together, it comes to a grand total of more than 10 hours.

And keep in mind that going to movie theaters, playing video games and reading books are behaviors that are not even on this list.

What in the world are we doing to ourselves?

The combination of watching live television and watching time-shifted television alone comes to a total of more than five hours.

If you feed five hours of something into your mind day after day, it is going to change you. There is no way around that. You may think that you are strong enough to resist the programming, but the truth is that it affects all of us in very subtle ways that we do not even understand.

And as I mentioned above, there are just six giant corporations that account for almost all of the programming that we receive through our televisions. Below is a list of these six corporations along with a sampling of the various media properties that they own…

Fortunately, those enormous media conglomerates do not have quite the same monopoly over the Internet, but we are starting to see a tremendous amount of consolidation in the online world as well. Just check out these numbers…

Overall, the top 10 publishers — together owning around 60 news sites — account for 47% of total online traffic to news content last year, with the next-biggest 140 publishers accounting for most of the other half, SimilarWeb found.

The biggest online news publisher for the U.S. audience was MSN, owner of MSN.com, with just over 27 billion combined page views across mobile and desktop, followed by Disney Media Networks, owner of ESPN and ABC News, with 25.9 billion.
The battle for the future of this nation is a battle for the hearts and minds of individuals.

And it is hard to see how things will be turned in a dramatically different direction as long as most of us are willingly feeding our hearts and minds with hours of “programming” that is controlled by the elite each day.

The good news is that there are signs of an awakening. More Americans than ever are becoming disenchanted with the mainstream media, and this is showing up in recent survey numbers. Here is one example…

Trust in the news media is being eroded by perceptions of inaccuracy and bias, fueled in part by Americans’ skepticism about what they read on social media.

Just 6 percent of people say they have a lot of confidence in the media, putting the news industry about equal to Congress and well below the public’s view of other institutions.
As Americans (and people all over the world) have lost confidence in the mainstream media, they have been seeking out other sources of news and entertainment. This has greatly fueled the rise of the alternative media, and the dozens of websites all over the Internet where this article will ultimately be published are examples of this explosion.

You can only enslave people for so long. Ultimately, they will want to break free of the chains that are holding them back and they will want to find the truth.

In this day and age, it is absolutely imperative that we all learn to think for ourselves. If you find that you are still addicted to the “programming” that the giant media corporations are feeding you, I would encourage you to start unplugging from the matrix more frequently.

In the end, you will be glad that you did.

Well this explains a bit, I suppose. I wouldn't say that they are necessarily Gadiantons... but they could be.

The companies themselves, not necessarily. But the controlling stock-holders, very likely are Gadiantons.

Public figures attend global conferences like Bohemian Grove and Bilderberg. But this list of elite this scientific paper is pointing to are likely the group that bankrolls these conferences and sets their agenda.

The US was built on the principle of separation of powers. The consolidation of economic power tends to corruption just as much as political power, even more so. These are the "special interests" that control many global policy and national policies. We need to stop supporting it.

List of Top 50. Most are banks. But, there are likely important companies excluded from this list.

https://arxiv.org/PS_cache/arxiv/pdf/11 ... 5728v1.pdf

The significant point of this paper is that it doesn't measure wealth, but degree of control. An key economic factor is access to credit, and these multi-national companies determine who gets access to credit.
