## Resource

Bill Cooper covers Michael A. Hoffman II’s Secret Societies and Psychological Warfare which outlines a grand thesis that a masonic cryptocracy operates behind the scenes of history and modern life, employing mind control through ritualistic acts and symbolic manipulation. The text explores key themes like the Hermetic Academy's goal to "perfect" divine creation, the use of flattery as a primary technique for mass control, and the deliberate induction of a "double-mind" in the populace through contradictory media messages. Hoffman connects sensational events, such as the Jack the Ripper and Son of Sam ritual murders and the Kennedy assassination , to alchemical operations intended to transform humanity and establish a new world order, culminating in the symbolic Re-Building of the Temple of Herod and the creation of a technological tyranny often referred to as the "Videodrome." The overall purpose is to expose this hidden occult influence, arguing that modern apathy and delusion are the intended results of this sophisticated psycho-spiritual warfare.
