Orwellian “Two Minutes Hate” Collides With “Overton Window” Fracture

“We've arranged a global civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.”

(Above cited quote is by Carl Sagan (1934-1996), the late American astronomer, planetary scientist and science communicator best known for his scientific research on the possibility of extraterrestrial life.)

Special Report from Sister Ciara 

My Dearest Friends:

On 25 June, you received my letter “Rebel Alliance Leader With “All Seeing Eye” Unleashed By Trump To Find Antichrist”, wherein I documented how President Donald Trump unleashed powerful and mysterious tech mogul Peter Thiel to find the Antichrist in order to defeat the demonic plan to establish a one world government.

On 26 June, the New York Time published its article “Peter Thiel and the Antichrist”, about which was revealed:

In a wide-ranging interview on the future and global existential risks, billionaire technology investor Peter Thiel raised alarms not only about familiar threats like nuclear war, climate change, and artificial intelligence but also about what he sees as a more insidious danger: the rise of a one-world totalitarian state.

Speaking to the New York Times’ Ross Douthat, Thiel argued that the default political response to global crises—centralized, supranational governance—could plunge humanity into authoritarianism.

Thiel, co-founder of PayPal and Palantir, shared his worries using examples from dystopian sci-fi stories. “There’s a risk of nuclear war, environmental disaster, bioweapons, and certain types of risks with AI”, Thiel explained to Douthat, suggesting that the push for global governance as a solution to these threats could culminate in a “bad singularity” - a one-world state that stifles freedom under the guise of safety.

Drawing on historical and philosophical analogies, Thiel referenced a 1940s Federation of American Scientists film, One World or None, which argued that only global governance could prevent nuclear annihilation. Thiel juxtaposed this with a Christian theological framing: “Antichrist or Armageddon?”. In both, the billionaire said he sees a binary choice between centralized control and catastrophic collapse.

“The way the Antichrist would take over the world is you talk about Armageddon nonstop”, Thiel explained.

Critical to notice about my letter you received on 25 June, that was followed a day later, on 26 June, by the New York Times publishing its article touching on the exact same Antichrist subject, was that they collided in the “Overton Window”, which is the range of subjects and arguments politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time.

As to what caused the “Overton Window” collision making politically acceptable to the mainstream population on an equal basis my Sisters of Sorcha Faal letter and a New York Times article, the Washington Post observed today: “In a survey last year by Statista, only 59 percent of Americans said they had watched “linear television” (read: broadcast, cable or satellite shows) in the past 12 months, down from 79 percent five years ago...Ensconced in our homes, watching our custom-tailored streaming feeds, we simply have fewer and fewer things in common...America needs a shared national story, a common understanding of something, to hold together as a nation”.

Among those knowing that the “Overton Window” would fracture from unforeseen collisions was world-renowned American astronomer Carl Sagan, who, in his book “The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark” published the year after his death in 1996, warned:

"I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness.

The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance".

 

For those of you wondering about the irrational bordering on psychotic hate and rage displayed against those like President Donald Trump and Russia, to just name a couple of examples, you should know that embedded within the “Overton Window” for decades has been the “Two Minutes Hate” mainstream media propaganda brainwashing, and as warned about by George Orwell in his dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four:

The political purpose of the Two Minutes Hate is to allow citizens to vent their existential anguish and personal hatred towards politically expedient enemies.

The horrible thing about the Two Minutes Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but, on the contrary, that it was impossible to avoid joining in.

Within thirty seconds any pretence was always unnecessary. A hideous ecstasy of fear and vindictiveness, a desire to kill, to torture, to smash faces in with a sledge-hammer, seemed to flow through the whole group of people like an electric current, turning one even against one's will into a grimacing, screaming lunatic.

And yet the rage that one felt was an abstract, undirected emotion which could be switched from one object to another like the flame of a blowlamp.

The “celebration of ignorance” and “lowest common denominator programming” warned about by Carl Sagan to perpetuate the “Two Minutes Hate” brainwashing embedded in the “Overton Window” is now fracturing, as evidenced by the news: “Church attendance has quadrupled amongst Gen Zers in recent years” and revelation: “Throughout the entire first half of 2025, 50-year-old reruns of Gunsmoke earned more streaming minutes than any of the super-expensive woke crap pumped out by the Disney Grooming Syndicate on Disney+”.

With God,
