A list of words and phrases that appear on WikiSpooks together with the often less orthodox meanings they are usually intended to convey:


Term Definition
Authority, Authoritative In addition to standard dictionary definitions, both words are often used pejoratively to imply distrust. In particular, political argument based on implied or alleged "authority" - usually connected with rank - that we are thus expected to take on trust because, after all, what interests could "Authority" possibly be serving other than the best interests of the Sheeple? (for example a General making statements about a political aspect of a war - or anything else for that matter - is expected to be accorded special authority, whereas the special interests and the agenda he is serving are usually transparent to anyone not dazzled by the medals)
Consensus trance Analagous to "Ruling Group Mind" (See below). The term was coined by Richard Heinberg in his writings about 9/11 and Peak oil. It refers to the psychology that requires either tacit acceptance of "The official Narrative" or the sub-concious blocking out of unpleasant and unpalatable truths about the world, ones country, society etc., in order to get through the day and concentrate on ones job and the necessary routines of life.

The Establishment

See this Wikipedia article which is a reasonable exposition of its meaning where used on WikiSpooks.

False Flag 'False flag' operations are covert operations designed to deceive the public such that they appear to have been carried out by other entities. The name is derived from the military concept of flying false colors; that is, flying the flag of a country other than one's own. False flag operations are not limited to war and counter-insurgency operations, and, as a matter of record, can be and often are used in peace-time. This Wikipedia article expands on the origins of the term.
LIHOP "Let it happen on purpose" - an acronym used to explain the nature of possible official complicity in a terrorist attack
MIHOP "Made it happen on purpose" - an acronym used to explain the nature of possible official complicity in a terrorist attack
Official Narrative Usage of the term on WikiSpooks is confined to the so-called 'Western Democracies'. It is the how-what-when-where-why of an event, issue or history, that is generally accepted and promoted by political establishments and their alliances. The detail of such narratives may vary considerably between the ruling and opposition wings of establishments and thus define the respective positions and rivallries of established political parties, their programmes and manifestos. But opinions held outside of clearly defined (though unwritten and unspoken) boundaries, CANNOT be expressed without serious risk of ostracism by 'The Establishment' - even where there is ample evidence to support them.

Ruling Group mind A term coined by Dr John McMurtry in his paper "Understanding 9-11 and the 9-11 wars". It refers to the psychology of the mass of a population when dealing with "The Official Narrative" - however absurd that narrative may in fact be to analysis that is unencumbered by the trappings of patriotism and other national/political loyalties.
Sheeple A euphemism for "the people" - in the sense of an obedient, docile population with either a blind or fearful trust in authority
