Send your kid to college: support the Surveillance State

Jon Rappoport

What are college students focusing on these days—apart from sex, booze, and drugs? Well, moral values, if you can call a deep desire for “free everything” a value. And maybe “feeling triggered” and “needing a safe space” is also, somehow, a value. As is demanding that many words be excised from the English language, because they might offend someone who is a member of a designated victim-class. College is quite a scene these days.

Once upon a time, college students were aware of the maxim: follow the money. They did research and discovered what kind of money was keeping their schools afloat. It was an instructive exercise, and it made professors and administrators very nervous, for the right reasons.  

Therefore, a different kind of propaganda had to be sprayed on students; the most shallow kind of “social justice” possible—in order to divert these boys and girls from revealing the underlying corruption of their adult minders. Hence, China-style political correctness.

These days, students are, for the most part, oblivious to how their colleges and universities are funded.

I’m not talking about donations from graduates and boosters, or revenue generated from televised football games. I’m talking, for example, about secretive government agencies.

CIA, NSA, DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency).

At WikiLeaks, Julian Assange posted an overview (10/7/2007), “On the take and loving it—academic recipients of the US intelligence budget.”

Consider Assange’s stunning conclusion: “Over the last decade, U.S intelligence funding of academic research has taken on cavalier, even brazen qualities. This article reveals over 3,000 National Security Agency and over 100 Defense Intelligence Agency funded papers [written by professors] and draws attention to recent unreported revelations of CIA funding for torture research.”

Torture research. If people need evidence that the CIA’s MKULTRA is still alive, there it is.

Assange: “The NSA has pushed tens or hundreds of millions into the academy [colleges] through research grants using one particular grant code. NSA funding sources are often nakedly, even proudly, declared in research papers (‘I may be nothing, but look, a big gang threw me a sovereign’). Some researchers try to conceal or otherwise downplay the source using accepted covers, weasel words and acronyms, yet commonality in the NSA grant code prefix makes all these attempts transparent. The primary NSA grant-code prefix is MDA904.”

“An examination of academic papers referencing the code gives the impression that most or all research grantees know the true source of their funding. These are not academics who have been fooled. These are willing, even eager, participants.”

The NSA uses a number of “contracting and grant making light covers,” Assange writes. Among them: Maryland Procurement Office, Department of Defense, DOD, ARDA.”

Naturally, all the NSA grants to academics are for research on how to spy. Don’t be fooled by the numerous NSA awards for work in abstract mathematics. The NSA’s interest in math per se is zero. The Agency seeks to apply the research to universal snooping.

College students who claim to be activists can dig into records and discover what grants the NSA is making to their professors.

The students can name names. They can make the facts public on campus and stage protests. They can demand de-funding and cutting NSA relationships. They can refuse to enroll in those professors’ classes.

A quick search led me to two high-ranked American colleges, Bard and Claremont McKenna. Bard openly offers its faculty assistance in applying for grants. Among the funding sources listed: NSA.

An article at the Claremont McKenna site celebrates a $40,000 NSA grant to Professor Lenny Fukshansky, a mathematician, to further his work in “Analytic techniques and algebraic constructions in geometric lattice theory.”

Nothing to see there, students. It’s just lattices. How could NSA use them, other than to hang plants in their offices to brighten the environment?

“Hi, I’m Professor Genius-IQ Doofus. I work for the Surveillance State. Don’t bother turning off your cell phones while you’re in class. The NSA is spying on you through them, and I’m helping the NSA. Now let’s learn some kick-ass math.”

If college students followed these trails, they would eventually discover something far more shocking. The Surveillance State itself is part of a technocratic agenda of control. Patrick Wood alludes to this in his brilliant 2015 book, Technocracy Rising. The “scientific” transformation of political power involves engineering society from top to bottom, and fitting every citizen into a detailed plan of permitted energy consumption.

Instead of worrying about whether holiday cookies shaped like evergreen trees or personal pronouns or bathrooms align with politically correct standards, students could turn their attention to how the world is being stolen out from under seven billion people.

Of course, students would prefer to think that theft is actually a signal of a coming utopia. The State is mommy, daddy, and a messiah. The State is good. “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.”

Memo to parents: Yes, send your kids to college. It’ll only cost you tens of thousands a year. Or your kid could take out a student loan and owe a couple of hundred thousand after he graduates and can’t find a job because he has no skills. It’s a great deal.

    Our country needs a very DEEP cleaning with an ammonia and bleach mixture.

  2. “Of course, students would prefer to think that theft is actually a signal of a coming utopia.”

    Therein lies the problem… they’ve been ‘programmed’ to ‘think’ that way.

    Most of them will be (to use a term I despise considering it’s source, but it applies here, imo) ‘useless eaters’ after the SHTF. No marketable/barterable skills whatsoever.

    And deathly afraid of… GUNS.
