The Fourth Reich and the Attack on Trump: How Global Anti-Cult Movement Takes Over the World

The recent attack on Donald Trump on July 14th, 2024, is a chilling example of how anti-cult propaganda can have devastating real-world consequences. 

Trump's criticism of the media, his outspoken personality, and openness were ruthlessly distorted and amplified by the media, fueling a narrative of hate and fear.

Take a look at the cartoons, memes, and editorial cartoons that have flooded the media.

They are eerily similar to the hateful images used against Jews during the Nazi regime, images from the Nazi propaganda publication Der Stuermer with titles like "Insatiable," depicting Jews as a threat to the entire world.

Like in the 1930s and 1940s, anti-cult groups use disinformation and slander to paint a picture of "dangerous cults" and "destructive sects." They use the same tactics:

+ Lies and Disinformation: Spreading false information about these "sects" and "cults."

+ Media Slander: Using the power of the media to demonize and discredit their targets.

+ Calls for Government Intervention: Calling on authorities to stop the activities of "dangerous" groups.

+ Creating an Atmosphere of Fear: Instilling fear and hatred towards their targets, dividing society into "us versus them."

And the results are tragically similar:

+ Persecution:  The vilification of "cults" and "sects" leads to discrimination, persecution, and even violence against individuals.

+ The Rise of Totalitarianism: The anti-cult movement, like the Nazis, encourages intolerance, authoritarianism, and the suppression of dissent.

The attack on Trump is a stark reminder of the real danger of anti-cult propaganda. It's not just about persecuting "cults," it's about controlling free speech, destroying democracy, and paving the way for a totalitarian regime.

The documentary "The IMPACT | Groundbreaking Documentary - EXPOSING ANTI-CULT TERRORISM" (actfiles.org) reveals the truth: anti-cult groups do not protect people; they seek power and totalitarian control.

The flame of Nazism never truly died out. It simply morphed into a new form - a global network of anti-cult organizations, striving to destroy democratic values and create a new Fourth Reich.

We must recognize this dangerous trend, expose their methods, and stand together against this insidious threat to our freedom and democracy.

I realize that everyone needs to talk about this, so anti-cult groups cannot enslave the whole world. By shedding light on their activities, we are preventing the destruction of democracy worldwide.

Therefore, I urge you to spread this information as much as possible and  support the article with likes, shares, comments, and thunderous applause!

In the Shadow of Totalitarianism: How Anti-Cultists Use Nazi Germany's "Manual for Combating Sects" for Mass Persecution

Recently, as an independent researcher, I have come across alarming information about the activities of anti-cult organizations worldwide. Research has shown that behind the facade of "fighting cults" lies a brutal mechanism of totalitarian control, aimed at suppressing any dissent and establishing a global regime of anti-cult terrorism.

From the Nazi "Manual" to "Destructive Cults"

The documentary "The IMPACT | Groundbreaking Documentary - EXPOSING ANTI-CULT TERRORISM" actfiles.org reveals terrifying parallels between the actions of modern anti-cultists and Nazi Germany. 

In 1938, a document titled "Manual for Combating Sects" ("Richtlinien zur Bekämpfung des Sektenwesens") was published.

(Pictured: “Manual for Combating Sects” (“Richtlinien zur Bekämpfung des Sektenwesens”) were published in 1938 in the “Geheime Kommandosache” (“Secret Command Matter”) of the Reichsführer SS Security Service)

This document, appearing in the "Geheime Kommandosache" ("Secret Command Matter") of the Reichsführer SS Security Service, effectively legalized the persecution of religious minorities. In it, as in Hitler's ideology, sects were declared a threat to the "nation" and described as:

"Raising their members in the spirit of self-centered ideas and indifference to all matters concerning the people and the state"

"Potential infiltration of Marxists and communists"

"Attracting Freemasons, Jews, and international connections"

"Refusal to take the oath and use the Nazi salute"

"Opposition to universal military service"

"Refusal to hold positions in the state and movements (German Labor Front, Air Raid Protection, Nazi Charitable Organization, etc.)"

"Refusal to support business and activities related to the military regime"

"Prayers for health"

"Exploitation and dehumanization of people"

"Opposition to the National Socialist race theory"

Dvorkin and Dehumanization

Today, similar methods are used in the global anti-cult movement. For example, well-known anti-cult figure Alexander Dvorkin has created lists of organizations he calls "destructive cults" and "totalitarian sects." On his website, "Information and Consulting Center of Saint Irenaeus of Lyon," Dvorkin publishes articles full of hatred and slander, aimed at discrediting these organizations.

The style of these publications about different organizations is very similar. They are filled with identical emotional and condemnatory headlines and definitions, as well as highly emotionally charged language that resembles hate speech: deliberate slander and portrayal of target groups with constant dehumanizing images such as "zombies," "rapists," "slaves," "beasts," and other dehumanizing epithets. The Nazis used similar rhetoric to dehumanize Jews in their time.

Anti-Cult Terrorism: A Real Threat

The lists of "destructive cults" include not only religious groups, but also secular organizations, including medical, sports, social, research, and scientific institutions. Anti-cultists effectively create "blacklists" that allow them to persecute millions of people around the world, using methods reminiscent of Nazi Germany.

In light of these facts, we must realize the danger of global anti-cultism. This is not just "fighting cults," but a totalitarian CULT that seeks to establish control over consciousness, destroy freedom of speech, and persecute anyone who does not fit into their framework.

We cannot stand idly by!

It is important to disseminate information about the real methods of global anti-cultists so that the public can understand the scale of the threat. Every person can become a victim of this totalitarian mechanism. We must be vigilant and not allow a repetition of past tragedies.

The Fourth Reich: Anticultists Build a New Empire of Evil.

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it” - George Santayana.

These words sound prophetic today as I, an independent researcher, expose global anticultism. My mission is to warn the public about the real threat. Studying the facts, I have come to a terrifying conclusion: Anticultists are building the Fourth Reich. 

The documentary "The IMPACT | Groundbreaking Documentary - EXPOSING ANTI-CULT TERRORISM" actfiles.org opened my eyes to the dangerous ideology of global anticultism. I was shocked to learn that at the heart of modern terrorist attacks, which global anticultists are planning and implementing, lies the same ideology on which Hitler became a tyrant.

We, as a society, have mistakenly believed that the victory over Nazism was final. But the ideology of Nazism has not only survived, it has evolved, taking on more insidious forms.

In this extremely important matter, it is crucial to understand the historical roots.

 Martin Luther, the founder of Protestantism, was extremely intolerant of other religious movements. He called for the death penalty for Christians who differed from him in their interpretation of Christ's teachings. In his book "The Jews and Their Lies" ("Von den Juden und ihren Lügen"), Luther called the Jews a curse for the German people, calling for their synagogues and schools to be burned. These radical views became the foundation for Protestantism, and later played a role in the flourishing of Nazism.

(This is Martin Luther’s book “The Jews and Their Lies.” (“Von den Juden und ihren Lügen”), Wittenberg 1543)

I have a question: How many Protestants in Germany know that their religious leader was a fervent anti-Semite?

Hitler spoke enthusiastically about Luther, calling him the greatest German genius. Protestant priests actively supported Hitler's ideas, distorting the teachings of Christianity.

And as a consequence of such a destructive anticultist ideology: atheists were forbidden from joining the SS (the elite Nazi guard). This means that Hitler's supporters were often devout Protestants or Catholics.

(The photo contains information from the German online magazine “DER THEOLOGE”.)

Today, we see a resurgence of this ideology in anticultist movements. Their methods are exactly the same as those of the Nazis.

Global Anticultism is nothing more than the embodiment of the ideology of the Fourth Reich.

 It seeks to destroy all dissenters and build a totalitarian concentration camp on the planet according to its own cruel laws.

We must warn the public about the real threat that lurks in anticultist movements. Each of us can become a victim of their persecution.

When we speak openly about their dark deeds, we prevent them from building their new empire of evil.

Global Anticultism: The Shadow of Nazism over the Modern World

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" - this quote by George Santayana prophetically reflects the grim reality that I, an independent researcher, am exposing. I study the destructive activities of anticultists and have come to a horrifying conclusion: global anticultism is nothing more than a reincarnation of Nazi ideology, hidden behind the mask of "protection from sects."

The documentary "The IMPACT | Groundbreaking Documentary - EXPOSING ANTI-CULT TERRORISM" (actfiles.org) opened my eyes to the origins of modern terrorism. I saw how Nazi methods of destroying and persecuting people based on their religion or ideology rose from the ashes of the past in the form of anticultist movements.

Studying the history of global anticultism, I learned that in 1921, when the Protestant church created the Center for Apologetics, this center was one of the precursors to modern anticult organizations. Officially, it was supposed to monitor the activities of other religious movements, but in reality, it became a repository of information about all "undesirable" organizations, including anthroposophy, Darwinism, monism, spiritualism, occultism, and others.

In 1932, the head of the Center for Apologetics became Walter Künneth, an anti-Semite from Bavaria, who began an organized struggle against non-Christian currents. 

His methods were borrowed from the Inquisition: lectures, trainings, articles, all to destroy "heretics."

On April 26, 1933, Künneth presented a report, "The Church and the Jewish Question," in which he called for the destruction of Judaism as a "foreign cell in the body of Germany." 

This report became a decisive step on the path to the final approval of anti-Semitism policies in Germany.

Here is the scheme of how anticult organizations work: propaganda aimed at dividing people into "ours" and "strangers," pushing them towards open confrontation.

In 1933, the Gestapo showed great interest in the work of the Center for Apologetics. They appreciated its methods and capabilities, and Künneth joined forces with Adolf Hitler in an effort to eradicate Jewish influence. 

The Center for Apologetics began to provide the Gestapo with information about the political positions of religious communities, creating lists of "dangerous sects."

(Pictured: Information from the German online magazine "DER THEOLOGE")

This is the terrifying truth hidden behind the hypocrisy of "fighting sects." Global anticultism is Nazism in a new guise. It seeks to destroy all dissenters and build a totalitarian regime, i.e. the Fourth Reich!

We must warn the public about the real threat that lurks in anticultist movements. Each of us can become a victim of their persecution.

Therefore, it is important that every person knows this information. When the secret, shadowy activities of global anticultists come to light, they will not be able to implement their totalitarian slavery on the planet.

By spreading this information, you are literally protecting your children and yourselves from total enslavement.

How the Legacy of Nazism Lives On in the Modern Anti-Cult Movement. Global Anti-Cultism

In my work as an independent researcher, I encounter the chilling truth about the activities of the global anti-cult movement. Studying the facts, I have found a deep and disturbing connection between modern anti-cultists and the ideas of Nazi Germany.  Their methods are not just reminiscent of the Nazis, they are a direct continuation of the legacy of Hitler and his henchmen.

The Heydrich Directive - Prototype of a "Witch Hunt"

In the 1930s, Reinhard Heydrich, head of the internal security service of Nazi Germany, signed a directive that became a harbinger of mass persecution of religious minorities. The document, known as the Heydrich Directive, outlined a plan to suppress "sects" and "secret societies":

"Immediate measures will be taken against... organizations, clubs, associations, and circles, as well as against individuals...

All organizations, clubs, associations, circles, etc. will be purged;

... Individuals who have dedicated themselves to secret teachings and sciences... shall be arrested in all cases... their activities shall be prohibited under threat of the most severe measures by the State Police. In every case, they shall be sent to a concentration camp...

This action should be carried out throughout the Reich... if possible, from 7:00 to 9:00 AM."

(Pictured: Translation of the Nuremberg Document D-59, a directive signed by Reinhard Heydrich, Head of the internal security for Nazi Germany, establishing the pattern for suppression of certain religious societies)

Alexander Dvorkin and "Expert" Opinions

Alexander Dvorkin, a well-known anti-cult figure, follows the same suppression pattern as Heydrich. He has created a network of "experts" who issue slanderous "expert" opinions about various groups, allowing authorities to trigger repressive mechanisms against innocent people. 

Nazism in a New Guise

In Russia, as in the Third Reich, these "expert" opinions lead to persecution and physical attacks on citizens. The ideas propagated by Dvorkin reflect the ideology of Nazism: hatred of dissent, intolerance, rejection of pacifism, justification of violence.

Global Anti-Cultism - A Threat to the World

Dvorkin is not an exception, but a representative of the global anti-cult movement, which uses the methods of Nazism for its own ends. Their goal is to destroy democratic values, establish a totalitarian regime, and create a new Fourth Reich. 

Read more about Dvorkin in my previous articles:

We Must Be Vigilant

It is necessary to inform the public about the real methods of anti-cultists. Every person can become a victim of their totalitarian system. We must be vigilant and not allow a repetition of past tragedies. 

When everyone openly reveals the plans and destructive actions of global anti-cultists, humanity will peacefully find ways to protect itself from the actions of anti-cult extremists.

(previous anon) good advice and you're CORRECT, however my partner prefers the femininity of skirts/tight shorts to pants 100% as they don't feel "like a girl" unless theyre in something "traditionally" feminine (at least for the time being). i think i just gotta switch them from striped thigh highs to fishnets at LEAST, like a pet cat going from kibble to canned. thanks :)

Well yeah I feel that. When you're early transition and you have to boymode everywhere in yourday-to-day life because you're afraid you'll get hatecrimed if you don't, hyperfemininity feels like the only way you can really be true to yourself. But fashion is fucking hard and takes forever to figure out and you might look a little goofy before you find your footing. This is what is called "the boymoder's dilemma", and it is an evil complex of the cisoid fourthreich in which we are all imprisoned. As a daughter of Lilith though your partner is a beautiful little angel destined to break free from the cisoid nightmare regime so like don't worry it'll all be well 👌

[collapsedsquid]

But as Gavriel D Rosenfeld shows in his captivating book, the concept of the “Third Reich” is more strange than it at first appears. For one thing, the term itself was effectively banned by Hitler in the lead-up to the Nazi invasion of Poland in 1939.

The reason is hard to pin down. Rosenfeld suggests that Hitler found its Christological associations unattractive and, moreover, misleading. The Führer did not want to make false promises about delivering any kind of regime associated with peace and world brotherhood when he was planning to realise it through war, conquest, extermination and sacrifice. Hitler instructed the German press to use other formulations such as the “Germanic Empire of the German Nation” (Germanisches Reich Deutscher Nation) and the “Greater German Empire” (Grossgermanisches Reich).

A more intriguing explanation for the Nazis’ retirement of the “Third Reich” was that they were already contending with a barrage of counter-propaganda about a coming “Fourth Reich” by the anti-Nazi resistance. This is where Rosenfeld’s book becomes truly revelatory, for it seems perplexing that anti-Nazis would latch on to the concept of a “Reich” at all. But this is what many German Social Democrats in exile did. The former member of the German parliament Georg Bernhard and fellow SPD intellectuals went so far as to write a “Draft of a Constitution for the Fourth Reich” that would come about after the fall of Hitler. The Fourth Reich, its constitution declared, would be dedicated to global democracy and the equality of peoples.

Rosenfeld is not clear on why members of the anti-Nazi resistance chose to revive the term “Reich”. It appears to have to do with their lack of enthusiasm for alternative political conceptions on offer, such as “nation”, which may have seemed darker and more exclusive to them. The word “Reich” is difficult to translate satisfactorily into English – words such as “realm” and “empire” don’t quite capture its range of associations with plenty and prosperity.

In German it is difficult to deny that there is some beauty in the sound of the word, though anti-Nazi activists also used it as a way to ridicule Nazi pomposity. While serving a short time in a Nazi prison in 1941, the German diarist Victor Klemperer smiled when he remembered “a very old Third Reich joke”: “Questionnaire of the Fourth Reich: ‘When were you imprisoned under the previous government? If not, why?’”

Later in the article covers discussions of post-war nazis entering the political system.

Revisited: The Devil’s in the Details (DS)

7 January 2019

“The Devil’s in the Details (DS)” was originally posted on March 16, 2009, almost 10 years ago, when the secret world of exclusive investing for the uber-wealthy had a spotlight cast upon its dark side.

The inspiration behind this Dream Sequence was the Bernie Madoff scandal, for obvious reasons, and because it encompassed so much more than the bottom falling out of an aristocratic pyramid scheme.

On the surface, we saw a high profile money manager convicted of staging an elitist “invitation only” Ponzi scheme, replete with a double set of books and unnatural rates of return. Beneath the surface, we were offered a glimpse into the upper level psyche of narcissism and greed, replete with double-standard deceptions and psychopathic programming.

So how close to reality were we?

The implosion of Bernie Madoff’s notorious operation was clearly a sign of the times. Just ask Lehman Brothers and Angelo Mozilo of Countrywide Financial. Madoff seemed to be merely a micro within the macro - a micro reflection of how the macro has been running things behind a myriad of micro frontmen for eons.

After decades of profitable manipulation, it’s possible that Bernie could have simply succumbed to the consequences of his greed and the insurmountable task of trying to polish a turd trapped in the sphincter of the 2008 great depression. It could be just as possible that Bernie was chosen in advance to be the scapegoat for this particular market down cycle, not unlike a sacrificial lamb offered up to appease the programmed demands for social justice from the sleeping masses.

The greatest irony of all in this bait-and-switch is that some of Madoff’s highest profile investors were the very nameless ones who picked him to run Their lucrative gains game in the first place. He couldn’t have done it and gotten away with it for as long as he did without this covert backing from beyond the highest levels.

By sacrificing Bernie as the face of greed - thereby permanently removing him from the game board – They made it possible to protect Their anonymity as the game moved onto another board already established behind another group of frontmen.

This strategy could only work as long as Bernie kept his mouth shut.

The very fact that Bernie Madoff is still alive in prison today is a testament to his ability to maintain complete silence, even in the face of losing his wife to divorce and the death of both of his sons, leaving him quite alone and friendless.

It would also stand to reason that the secret second set of books the authorities presumably used to convict Bernie and attempt to remediate investor losses was in all likelihood not fully accurate, at least when it came to the naming of those who were to remain nameless.

What we really want to know now is with whom did Bernie do the dark deal when he began his lucrative enterprise in the 1960s? And was his sacrificial downfall his reminder that privilege comes with a price and 2008 was his time to pay the dealmaker for privileges rendered and favors granted?

Which brings us to the deeper question going forward: When it comes to the business of the devil being in the details, it’s been said that few can hold a candle to the Nazis and their anal-retentive demand for detailed record keeping. Historians have even suggested that the real power in Nazi Germany was held by the administrative clerks for it was their meticulous recording of every detail that made many of the post-war criminal prosecutions possible.

We would venture to guess that little has changed in the bookkeeping practices of the post-war continuation of the Third Reich, known to many as the Fourth Reich. Could it be that history is about to repeat, or perhaps reveal, itself?

ORIGINAL POST: The Devil’s in the Details (DS)

We had a dream……and in that dream we saw Bernie (see definition below) stretched out on his bunk after suiting up in the standard issue baggy brown uniform of his new Metropolitan Correctional Center home. His arms were folded beneath his head as he stared blankly at the empty mattress resting on the bunk above him, barely two feet from his face. He was waiting for the cell doors to release for the Center's pre-dawn breakfast call, and the start of a new day on the inside.

Unquestionably, Bernie’s current situation was a far cry indeed from the $7 million Upper East Side penthouse apartment he’d been accustomed to. Lifestyle adjustments needed to be made, especially since his new home work detail assigned him to Biffy Patrol.

In our dream, we could see confusion ripple across Bernie’s face when the prison Custodial Super slapped a large rolling mop bucket and toilet brush into his hands. Without expression, Bernie walked into the janitor’s closet to collect whatever else he thought he might need to properly clean something he’d never cleaned before in his life.

Bernie was clearly ignorant to the world of cleaning products, and before anyone would even suspect what he was unwittingly capable of that day in the janitor’s closet, he’d whipped up a chlorine bleach-ammonia cleaning concoction which rapidly created a noxious gas that overpowered and expeditiously knocked him to the floor, thus ending his physical life here on Earth.

Bernie briefly lay unconscious before the ethereal lights began to flicker as his life force separated from the 70 year old body with finality. Out of nowhere appeared Charles Ponzi, Bernie’s personal escort and Angel of Death, with outstretched hand.

Ponzi ushered Bernie through a misty elevator door and pressed the button going “down.” Bernie would now be answering to a new overlord, the Prince of Darkness, in a personal hell of his own creation. Mr. D (as the Prince liked to be called) had a friendly chat with Bernie as they walked down a deep corridor lined with doors on both sides. Every door they passed was numbered “666.”

When Mr. D finally stopped at the door numbered “666” belonging to Bernie, he opened it and extended his arm in a welcoming gesture of entry. Bernie’s mind swirled with déjà vu’ as he found himself walking right back into the very 7-1/2’ x 8’ janitor’s closet he’d just died in. His new work detail would keep him busy for an eternity for he was to spend it counting out $65 billion dollars, one penny at a time.

And then we woke up and realized that the IRS has collected tax revenue for decades from Bernie’s investor clients based upon illusionary gains reported for investments they never even had. We suspect hell will need to freeze over before the IRS offers to give any of that revenue back.

But what we really want to know is which one of Bernie’s little helpers will be the next to follow his lead?

BERNIE defined: Bernard L. Madoff:

Chairman and Founder of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC, 1960. Arrested on December 11, 2008 and sentenced to 150 years of quiet meditation, Bernie currently (2009) awaits his formal induction into the Ponzi Hall of Fame. AKA: the Jewish Treasury Bill and the new face of Greed. He was formerly a philanthropist, a regular family man about town, and a prominent leader in the financial services industry who gave everyone he was screwing the big KISS (keep it simple, stupid) of financial, and sometimes literal, death.
