In
the book ’22
Steps to Global Tyranny’ (p.79), I quote Frederico Mayer,
Director-General of the United Nations Educational Scientific and
Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as saying that one of the aims of
globalism and UNESCO is to bring about “the intellectual and moral
solidarity of mankind.” Translating the globo-speak, that means
everybody in the world must be conditioned to think the same things
and hold the same set of values.
This
goal is
to be achieved through mass social conditioning and behavior
modification programmes with on-going monitoring and correction,
along the lines suggested by behavioral psychologist B.F.Skinner in
his book ‘Beyond Freedom and Dignity’. It is to take place under
the banner of promoting and maintaining ‘mental health’, where
the meaning of ‘mental health’ has been expanded to include
“how a person thinks, feels, and acts when faced with life’s
situations....how people look at themselves, their lives, and the
other people in their lives ...and explore choices,” (quoting
UNESCO).
Psychological
assessments are planned for young and old, which will identify who
might be ‘at risk’ of not meeting the required mental health
standards. Says UNESCO, “Mental health policies should enable all
individuals whose mental health is disturbed, or whose psychological
balance may be compromised, to obtain services adapted to their
needs, and to promote the optimal development of the mental health
of the population.” In other words, this is mass social
conditioning under the guise of ‘optimising the mental health of
populations’.
Implementing
these grossly totalitarian measures was never going to be easy.
UNESCO started out by promoting voluntary programmes with friendly
names like Healthy Start, Healthy People, Healthy Communities and
Healthy Cities. Canberra, where many of Australia’s global
totalitarians operate on the national payroll, has had a Healthy
Cities programme since 1987. But progress was slow. Since 9-11,
however, the globalists have become much bolder, and have figured
out a way to slip these measures into the Australian community
without raising too many eyebrows: by targeting a group that is in
no position to object because it is dependent upon the state for
assistance – the unemployed.
Job
seekers are now to be screened for mental disorders by staff
psychologists at Centrelink (unemployment) offices [Mental
test for jobless, Sunday Telegraph, 28 April 2002]. According to
Centrelink’s national
manager, “The initiative will provide Centrelink customers with
much greater access to a professional service to assist them reach
their potential and enhance their participation in the community.”
These words are almost identical to those used by UNESCO.
Translated, they mean that the unemployed will now have to submit to
compulsory psychological testing, and those deemed to have
‘problems’ will be obliged to undergo taxpayer-funded treatment
with follow-up counseling.
According
to Centrelink’s national manager, this will create “exciting new
employment opportunities for both recently graduated and experienced
psychologists.” You bet it will, which is precisely why nobody
will object to this gross infringement of individual rights.
According to the corporatist mindset, now part of the culture, if it
creates jobs who cares about rights?
The
mastermind behind this is Australia’s Family and Community
Services Minister, Amanda Vanstone. The victims, whom Vanstone and
Centrelink management insist on calling ‘customers’, will
include not only dole bludgers but innocents thrown out of work
through global corporate downsizing – which could include anybody.
Those unfortunate enough to find themselves in that situation will
now be subjected to the indignity of obligatory psychological
testing, and to having their profile entered, along with the rest of
their private information, into the central government data bank.
It
gets worse: they will then be assigned their very own government
parasite – a personal adviser who will plan and coordinate their
ongoing monitoring and correction programme. According to Ms.
Vanstone, “Personal advisors will work with specialists, both
internal and external, in order to select the most appropriate
pathway and services for the customer.”
But
these people are not ‘customers’; the word ‘customer’
implies voluntarism. The target group in this case has no choice,
and the ‘pathway’ being sign-posted by Vanstone is the pathway
to global tyranny.
