An impending disaster or state of emergency - real or imagined - has been used as manipulation and scare tactic.

An impending disaster or state of emergency - real or imagined - has been used as manipulation and scare tactic at least since the Apocalypse of St. John has driven people to pay for their "resurrection" (after death) by the Catholic Church.

Significance for Deep State politics

Political scientist Carl Schmitt (1888-1985) postulated that real power in a state exercises who decides when a state of emergency is declared and when it ends. Declaration of a state of emergency often includes suspension or ending of civil rights and democracy and a shift to martial law. Property rights, however, are preserved according to Schmitt.

Preparation

Full article: Disaster/Preparation

Preparation for Disasters is used to introduce new policies, often by powerful lobbies and foundations proposing a fusion of trans-national corporations and government which - according to Mussolini - is the very definition of fascism.

Continuity of Government

Planning for disasters of various kinds has driven the Continuity of Government efforts, a cabal using actual disasters as catalyzing events to further a non-democratic, business dominated control structure built on permanently rolled over emergency legislation. CoG planning was (partially) activated on 9-11.

The new "normal"?

The conditions to declare a state of emergency were gradually relaxed; i.e. a pandemic does not require a disease to be dangerous by the WHO any more. On Mai, 15 2019 the US declared a national "state of emergency" concerning "telecommunications", as part of its economic war against China.

Types of emergencies

An incomplete list of real or perceived threats leading to preparation for or reaction to regional, national, international or worldwide states of emergency may include the following examples. The scenarios include social control measures at the core: propaganda, psyops, censorship, police state and increasingly sophisticated soft power (aversive conditioning) techniques.

• In the 2008 financial disaster political leaders were threatened with a global state of emergency (i.e. riots, meltdown of the economy) - to introduce "bailouts" and "Quantitative Easing" (for those who caused or at least new in advance about the impending crash)
• Due to its moral implications and the "air of urgency" preparations and reaction to disasters are prone to becoming part of an ideology where dissent is colored as "evil", "ill" or a similar "enemy image".

 

Examples

Page name	Description
"Biological weapon/Terrorism"
"Climate change"	the dogma that rise in CO2 levels correspond to a (as of yet non-significant) rise in temperature and that the world is ahead of an apocalyptic disaster
"Climate change/Flood"	"Climate change" supposedly increases the risk of floods.
"Climate change/Hurricane"	"Climate change" supposedly increases the frequency of hurricanes.
"Cyberattack"	Cyberattacks are a new form of large scale security holes, which suspiciously emerge from an (unknown) central point in government software all over the world
"Cyberterrorism"	The use of computers by "terrorists" to cause disruption. This is an arena in which the determination of responsibility is particularly difficult, and therefore false flag attacks are that much more easy.
"Overpopulation"	A less obviously racist replacement for eugenics, designed to shift focus away from over consumption.
"Pandemic"	The WHO relaxed standards to a point where neither the number of cases nor the danger of a disease informs about the actual health risk formerly associated with the term.
"Terrorism"	Those atrocities which are not committed by governments - except for state terrorism.
"War on Drugs"	A social control strategy that provides a lot of off-the-books funding for the US Deep state in particular. As a strategy of tension, it has served to scapegoat minorities and is used as a pretext for social militarization and the removal of civil liberties.
9-11	A complex and spectacular set of events in New York and Washington. The US government was quick to blame Al Qaeda, though no evidence of guilt was presented and there is much suspicion about what Al Qaeda really is. In the USA 9-11 assisted the Patriot Act's roll back of civil liberties, the stepping up of domestic surveillance and the financial advancement of the military industrial complex. Abroad 9-11 helped launched wars on Iraq and Afghanistan that had been planned long before.
Chemical warfare	Subject to more restrictions than ordinary war, some of which have proved effective, some times.
Civil unrest
Earthquake	Can certainly be caused by human activity - and maybe weaponized?
Epidemic
Fire
Hurricane Katrina	Hurricane which caused over 1,800 deaths and $125 billion in damage in late August 2005. The most damage was suffered in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Mass shooting	When a massive or large quantity of people get shot with a handgun. Its psychological effect caused it to become a tool for statecraft.
Money/Creation	The money creation process is not only a Third rail topic, off limits to commercially-controlled media. It is also subject to a wide ranging and extensive misdirection campaign.
Money/Fractional-reserve banking	a legal pyramid scheme
Moral hazard	The "too big to fail" meme, giving an unfair advantage to entities which already have more power and assets than the "others who are NOT too big".
Nuclear disaster
Stock market crash	A stock market crash is a type of financial disaster
Strep A
War	War is the organised and large scale use of armed forces, in the modern era, generally directed by national governments. It has gone on since the beginning of recorded history, though the numbers killed have increased with larger populations and the proportion of civilian victims has increased with more efficient weapons.

"Overpopulation"	“Overpopulation and the overreliance on irrigation was a major factor in making the Maya vulnerable to failure: the trigger event of their collapse appears to have been a long drought beginning about 840 A.D. (communication of V. Scarborough, an archaelogist (sic!) from the University of Cincinnati [90]). Among many factors, such as war and plagues, that contributed to many of the collapses of ancient societies, there seem to be two main causes: too many people and too little fresh water. As a consequence, the civilization became vulnerable to environmental stress, for instance, a prolonged drought or a change in climate [90]. The societies themselves appear to have contributed to their own demise by encouraging growth of their population to levels that carried the seeds of their own decline through overexploitation of the land (communication of C. Scarre, an archaelogist (sic!) from the Cambridge University in England [90]). Similarly, the Akkadian empire in Mesopotamia, the Old Kingdom of Egypt, the Indus Valley civilization in India, and early societies in Palestine, Greece, and Crete all collapsed in a catastrophic drought and cooling of the atmosphere between 2300 and 2200 B.C.”	Didier Sornette	2003

Anthony Fauci	“No matter what phase you're in there are certain fundamental things that we've done that are not like it was in September or October [2019], you want to call it the "new normal," you can call it whatever you want.”	Anthony Fauci	16 April 2020
