Topic: Externalized Power

The movement of occultism from the public sphere to underground groups like the Freemasons is attributed to a societal fear of the unknown. Modern society is described as returning to a hierarchical mindset where individuals must defer to academic and religious "high priests." This loss of self-sufficiency is linked to trauma-based externalization of power, leading citizens to look for saviors in political figures.

Lennon Honor defines "government" as literally translating to "mind control," deriving from the words "govern" (to rule) and "menti" (mind). He argues that political leaders like Barack Obama are merely actors reading scripts on a "global motion picture stage." According to Honor, people only believe in the necessity of government because they have been traumatized into a state of fear where they feel the need to externalize their power to a savior figure.
