There is a war on for your mind, as behavioural scientists increasingly shape the narrative that you hear and see. This is especially true in regards to Covid-19. As a UK government document from March of last year stated, “many issues around the coronavirus response relate to behaviour.”
This is why the UK government has an entire team of behavioural scientists who work to improve public compliance with scientific dictates in relation to Covid-19. It is called the Independent Scientific Pandemic Insights Group on Behaviours (SPI-B), with a similar group formed during the co-called swine flu pandemic of 2009/10 and the Ebola crisis of 2014.
The behavioural team is a sub-group of the Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE), which advises the UK government on Covid-19. This sub-group is comprised of more than 40 scientists and academics, from such fields as health psychology, social psychology and anthropology. They provide “behavioural science advice aimed at anticipating and helping people adhere to interventions that are recommended by medical or epidemiological experts.”
The behavioural sub-group has suggested various measures. In order to increase public compliance with Covid dictates for instance, the sub-group suggested “increasing risk perceptions.” A UK government document also notes that the behavioural sub-group is “maintaining a log of COVID-19 specific behavioural science, including polling.” In other words, Covid-19 is the grandest live social experiment in human history, and we are the guinea pigs.

Behavioural Insights
Although it is a sub-group of SAGE, some participants of the behavioural team are also direct participants of SAGE, such as Professor Dame Theresa Marteau, who is the Director of the Behaviour and Health Research Unit at the University of Cambridge. Some participants of this behavioural sub-group on Covid are also part of the Behavioural Insights Team (BIT), such as Professor David Halpern. Also known as the Nudge Unit, the BIT generates and applies behavioural insights to inform policy.
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) defines behavioural insights as “an inductive approach to policy making that combines insights from psychology, cognitive science, and social science with empirically-tested results to discover how humans actually make choices.” The OECD notes that there are over 200 institutions around the world that are applying behavioural insights to public policy.
The British BIT was originally set up within the UK Cabinet Office a decade ago. Today, it is part owned by the UK Cabinet Office, NESTA and its employees. The BIT has worked with various UK government departments, in addition to the NHS, the World Bank, the United Nations Environment Program and the United Nations Development Program.
Take Your Shot
The BIT even has a podcast, called Inside the Nudge Unit. In their latest episode, Covid Vaccines and Tech Repairability, they talk about the behavioural work that is being conducted to increase vaccine adoption. The hosts interview Carolina Toth from the BIT’s New York office, who has been working on designing and testing behavioural “evidence-based messages that Mayors and local leaders can use to help encourage uptake of the Covid-19 vaccines.”
In addition to all this behavioural nudging that is taking place, it was also revealed last year that a psychological warfare unit of the Ministry of Defence (MOD), called the 77th brigade, was working to counter so-called Covid misinformation online, using social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter to do so. In the words of the MOD, “the 77th brigade uses non-lethal engagement and legitimate non-military levers as a means to adapt behaviours of the opposing forces and adversaries.”
“We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.” That was what Edward Bernays, the father of public relations (PR) and nephew of Sigmund Freud, wrote in his 1928 book, Propaganda. Bernays’ characterization of society still rings true today; the only difference is that there is a whole new technological layer of behavioural insights in play.

Tavistock Institute.
Psychiatry would be a great spiritual adventure if it were not in the hands of those who need it most, and an army of mercenary careerists who are not in the business of personal development but social advancement. Added to this, we got the phenomenon of psychological warfare being turned on the public by a small Class or religious interest. If, for Jews, Gentiles are the enemy, we can never have good government, and a similar enmity can arise from other places as well, since life’s dynamic involves dualities. The individual just needs to be aware. There is local peace to be cultivated.
Yes, ‘The Tavi’ is also part of this psyop, yet this is one of the best posts I’ve seen on the subject. It’s clear and concise, well sourced and referenced, and most critically it’s from the horses mouth aka Control System Central… Powers That Soon Will Not Be…
Cracking material!
Yes Anonymous, very likely Tavistock.
I can safely say that I have never, ever, ever in my life felt so withdrawn from people, as I have, the last year. I’ve done my utmost to try and wake people up, even more than what I’ve normally done. I’ve gone out of my way. I’ve sent video links, pdf files, articles from the internet to people’s phones, pleading with them to send it on to as many people as they can and did they? Did they hell! I really don’t care if they want to call me mad. I know that I know I’m right and they’re wrong, but more importantly, I’m doing my best to save lives here. I’m also converting people, dragging them from the matrix, into the harsh existence they’ve been oblivious to all their life.
Through the vaccines and mask wearing (with the graphene oxide) they’ve infected millions, whom in turn will infect even more, most likely with blood transfusions and passing of bodily fluids. So the government’s agenda has worked to the ‘t’.
All they have to do now is just sit back, relax and watching millions die. And of course, they’ll continue to blame the non vaccinated, the new covid strain, named after another food takeaway and promote more vaccine top ups.
And what’s really sad is the sheep will believe them. SMH……
Their practises will never capture those of us who know this is all bunkum so they’ve lost that part of the population and will never take it. The best they can hope for is a majority of the numbnuts, but if they must resort to mind games to capture even them instead of using simple misdirections known to work for thousands of years – cons – then maybe they’re not as good at capturing minds as some think they are.
How many of these f….rs have been “vaccinated” and I mean with the real injections not saline solution?
How many of these people are mad scientists and how many believe they are doing good?
I find it hard to believe they are all psychos though that may well be.
one has to remember : there are two diferent schools of
psychology : JEWISH + ARIAN (fashist) both are diferent
ways but anyway fashist + communist because they inflict force
against their victims (gulagpsychiatry, MKultra) . MODERN
PSYCHIATRY never understands that there is never a cure
over the brain + thinking. cure is only the indian gurus way
over the heart with meditation ! therefore the west will be
never cured over the brains way as it is the seat of satan !
one sees this specialy with USA military spendings + inventions .
Hypnotists have been telling us for decades that there’s no such thing as really deep, unbreakable hypnosis.
THEY’RE WRONG!
During the first shutdown, people were (unlawfully) ORDERED to remain indoors.
With nothing left to do, most parked themselves in front of the idiot box, exactly as zog intended.
After just a few minutes of tel-aviv-zion, the mind slips into a semi-hynotised state.
The tv is the most powerful brainwashing tool ever invented. Add hypnosis and subliminal messages, and what chance did people have?
The brainwashing from repeated, long-term indoctrination-by-tv goes so deep that people are INCAPABLE of breaking the hypnotic spell.
“If you meet someone, you’ll catch the government’s imaginary plague and DIE, even if the other person hasn’t got it”. They actually believe that crap because they’re fully hypnotised and no official source is permitted to challenge the lies.
The commands include
“Stay up-to-date with the latest propaganda. Switch the brainwashing box on as soon as you get up in the morning”.
“Truth comes from official sources. Politicians and broadcasters tell the truth. Only lies and liars are to be found on the internet, so keep away from the internet”.
“The virus is real and deadly”.
“Covering your face protects you and others”.
“There’s never been a virus like this one before, so even after all this time, we’re still having to learn to deal with it”.
“Stay away from others. Everyone’s got it, even you, and if you get too close to another person, you’ll both die”.
These people aren’t stupid. Not normally anyway (though some are). What they are is so deeply hypnotised that they CAN’T break out of it. Truth and logic mean nothing to them. All that matters is what they’re TOLD to believe by the liars on the idiot box. They can’t hear you if what you say conflicts with what they believe. They’re unreachable.
To White Elephant–if you find people unreachable it might be because you came in with the intent of winning a competition/argument and they insisted on not losing, when you need to come in at a 0 degree angle, not 180. You take their direction first.
got to be tavistock; i agree. this is good ole witchcraft at work. even the beatles were a product of tavistock. it wasn’t called the british invasion for nothing.
The government is a gigantic scam, so are most psychologist theories.
The (public authorities) scammers hire (mind control advocates) psychologist scammers to help them run the government scam.
The government scammers take public funds to pay the lesser scammers, and that keeps the scam going.
This is also done with police, who are the hired thugs to “keep order”.
Money well spent from their point of view.
You are not to know any of this that your money is stolen via taxes and used to mind control you into obedience.
They do it for your own good, so quit belly aching.
God runs the world, so if you don’t like how God does it then maybe you are an atheist, and we all know that doubters are on the road to atheism.
So get on your knees and believe in God with all your heart and soul.
Pay your taxes, after all it is their money.
indian gurus already did know that the brain worshiping west with
his greed is on the wrong way . how can spiritual sick people like
psychiatrists cure open lunatic humans . never ! in USA a whole
jewish psychiatric industry (like the holocaustindustry) makes big
busines and they first should all be send to some indian gurus .
first they should be cured by their jewish money greed !
Speaking of Jewish money greed (antiseptic), Max Keiser gave an incredible talk to Alex Jones, who sat at his feet while a money mysticism was expounded and the true money worship of Jews was revealed (and bitcoin was the Holy Grail, finally discovered} and all this in the metal and robotic voice of Keiser. Jones will soon recover but it was certainly revealing.
