    Moral impetus of the project
    Cognitive-Liberty.Online was created in 2016 to counteract the perfidious and utterly unethical psycho-physiological manipulation (viz., cybernetic propaganda) which is currently systematically utilised by the psychopathic financial power “elité” and its associated co-opted myrmidónesExplicationIn classical Greek mythology (i.e., Homer’s Iliad) myrmidónes were commanded by Achilles during the Trojan War. According to the legend Zeus created them from a colony of ants (myrmex). Cf. Sir Francis Bacon's metaphor on ants, spiders, and bees (Novum Organum Scientiarum, 1620). Per analogiam, ants are scientists who are rule conformist followers who lack the capacity to reflect (i.e., metacognitively/epistemologically) on what they actually do. They work myopically within a given Kuhnian paradigm without asking quintessential overarching questions and, ergo, without any awareness of the bigger picture. to control and exploit the largely naïve populace (behind a superficial Orwellian façade of humanitarian benevolence and scientific progress). As the propagandist Joseph Goebbels already noted in the age of the 3rd Reich: Effective propaganda is invisibleQuotationEven entertainment can be politically of special value, because the moment a person is conscious of propaganda, propaganda becomes ineffective. However, as soon as propaganda as a tendency, as a characteristic, as an attitude, remains in the background and becomes apparent through human beings, the propaganda becomes effective in every respect.
    Joseph Goebbels, Facism and the Female Form, 1942, p.170-71     — conscious awareness of the influence would automatically elicit psychological reactance/resistance, or, in Prof. Noam Chomsky’s terms, “the natural human instinct for freedom”. In other terms, human beings generally do not like to be manipulated… Unbiased information and historical context are crucial components for a realistic understanding of the prevailing highly manipulative socio-political situation. Cognitive-Liberty.Online was created to make a contribution towards this critical objective. Based on a multi-criteria metalevel analysis one is forced to conclude that the current capitalistic system (aka. the “capitalocene”) is antagonistic towards the unfoldment of human potential and nature/life as a whole, i.e., the current modus operandi is fundamentally corrupt and promotes nescience, neuronal atrophy, and moral decay. The empirical evidence for this statement is de facto overwhelming (if one dares to look at it in an unbiased manner). Per analogiam, the situation is very reminiscent of Plato’s “Allegory of the Cave” which he introduced in his Socratic dialogue “The Republic” (Greek: Πολιτεία/Politeia, ≈380 BC), a text concerned with the character of the just state and the just man. The text definitely ranks among the most influential philosophical text in world and it has deeply influenced modern political theory. The timeless cave-allegory profoundly demonstrates Plato’s status as a deep philosopher who was initiated into the occult knowledge traditions (etymological root meaning: that which is hidden/concealed from the eye, Latin: occultus), but see: https://christopher-germann.de/platos-hohlengleichnis/
    “To ask the ‘right’ question is far more important than to receive the answer. The solution of a problem lies in the understanding of the problem; the answer is not outside the problem, it is in the problem.” — Sri Jiddu Krishnamurti

    Niemand ist mehr Sklave, als der sich für frei hält, ohne es zu sein. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
    (Transl.: None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.)
    Man muß das Wahre immer wiederholen, weil auch der Irrtum um uns her immer wieder gepredigt wird, und zwar nicht von einzelnen, sondern von der Masse. In Zeitungen und Enzyklopädien, auf Schulen und Universitäten, überall ist der Irrtum oben auf, und es ist ihm wohl und behaglich, im Gefühl der Majorität, die auf seiner Seite ist. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
    (Transl.: Truth has to be repeated constantly, because Error also is being preached all the time, and not just by a few, but by the multitude. In the Press and Encyclopaedias, in Schools and Universities, everywhere Error holds sway, feeling happy and comfortable in the knowledge of having Majority on its side.)
