Identity, Possession and Harvest...

 Hi. Brian Joseph Johns here. 



First of all, I am NOT a Jehovah's Witness or a member of Prince Hall, and never have been and never will be. 


My saying this is significant, but at this point it won't entirely make sense. Suffice it to say that in Canada, its a hate crime to collectively replace a person's identity in order to replace their gender, their culture, their religion, or any other aspect of a person's right to identity, which is protected under a person's right to life which is part of both the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Human Rights Act.


Question: Why would a group of somebodies (collectively) want to replace a person's identity? 


Answer: To silence them, and to ensure that others ignore them and anything they expose about collective activities in a community that operate in spite of the law, and often in contravention to it, especially where the community, or members of predatory ideologies there within are acting in the interest to violate another member of the community in some way shape or form, either criminally, or in terms of their rights, and these ideologies want to ensure they aren't held responsible according to the law, but rather live under the rules of their religion, while forcing others in the community to do so as well, despite the fact that policy and law is and should be secular in nature, and enforced that way.


Jehovah's Witnesses have a second witness rule, which requires that any account or accusation of wrong doing, require a second witness to confirm (or deny) the first witness' accusation. Hence, if a person in a community is being subjected to criminal harassment by other members of the community, if the community wants to ensure that the victim's account is disregarded, the community collectively labels the victim as a Jehovah's Witness, as Jehovah's Witnesses don't deal with law enforcement. 


Issues between Jehovah's Witnesses are handled by a tribunal of "elders" (men who are "learned" in the Jehovah's Witness' teachings) who use the bible as their reference point to deem if a crime has been committed or not, and what the penalty should be. 


In communities with a Jehovah's Witness presence, local law enforcement tends not to get involved in their matters, hence those wrongly labeled as Jehovah's Witnesses who decry criminal harassment or any other crimes against their person, are often ignored on account of the Jehovah's Witness' second witness rule, and this includes law enforcement ignoring a person wrongly labeled as a Jehovah's Witness as well. 


Basically, a person in a community can be wrongly labeled a Jehovah's Witness and end up denied of all of their legal rights and in most cases, this is used as a method to cover up community crimes against said person, which can include stalking, harassment and illegal surveillance of their living space and communications devices, including their cable television (and shows they watch), their phone and their internet. The people conducting this activity are doing so criminally, and silencing their victim, though that method of silencing them is only one method of many that such ideologies employ against their victims.


Now you know why I often explain that I'm not a Jehovah's Witness.


If you take that same pattern, of there being rules behind specific ideologies and religions, you'll find that there are a number other ideologies whose rules also open the door to victimization of people in a community, when wielded by a community ideological group as a weapon to deny the rights of a person within the community.


This whole idea even goes a step further in terms of the identity crime aspect (replacing a person's identity in order to replace their gender, their culture, their religion or any other protected aspect of their identity), to include the community replacing their victim's identity in order to use them as a "lamb for the slaughter" ie a substitute for the social punishment of a crime committed by someone else. In communities that employ social punishment coopted by local religions or ideologies, the community will often harass or socially torture a person as a form of punishment, but not in the event that they break a law, but commit a sin according to the more prominent religions in the community. In many cases, there has evolved methods that groups within the community employ to alleviate themselves of the punishment by offering up a substitute who instead takes the brunt of the punishment themselves, and often this is an extremely horrifying and traumatizing experience whether you're the "lamb for the slaughter" or not. Regardless, its wrong, not to mention that many other crimes are often allowed to go on without any interference at all, simply because they don't fit the mold for a "sin".


These people that spy on your person, they're enforcing the rules of their religion upon you based upon your private activity, or they're using you as the "lamb for the slaughter" of someone else's sins about which they learned by spying on them. Either way, its a secretive community ideology that is spying on and punishing people according not to law, but sin. This seems to be the hidden paradigm operating in society in these days, and as I stated, its quite predatory and it is connected to a growing phenomenon of crimes that violate a person's identity.


After publishing the latest Grand Tapestry of Moments (Episode 3), I received a rather brutal social beating, and certainly one of which I was not deserving in the slightest, but I'm certain that most of you out there who've encountered predatory collective ideologies both at home and in street know exactly what I mean.


If you've ever wondered what is going on when you experience that sort of treatment, I'm going to reveal a bunch of stuff for you here that should explain most if not all of it, effectively exposing it once and for all. So lets get right down to business here at Shhhh! Digital Media, though if you read this, don't for a minute believe that I'm imploring you to keep it a secret (shhhh).


You could always share this exposé with others who might benefit from that knowledge, or share it with human rights activists and lawyers who upon finding out the nature of the devices behind this activity, might actually do something about it legally.

Identity And Predatory Groups


Identity is the link between a person, their history and their former actions. Those of any ilk or morality. Identity is the link between a person and their skills and abilities, those for which they're known by the people who know them/knew them, and those that weren't known or that they kept hidden.


It is a label of some form, a mostly unique identifier attributed to a specific person in order to distinguish them as being a specific person, of a specific historical record. Often, in the communities in which they grew up, it is the thing that links them with their (former) actions and history.


To predatory groups that operate in communities nowadays, this history of a person forms the basis of being their "soul". To such groups, the idea is that a person's soul is a combination of the good things and the bad things they've done over the course of their life, and everything in between those extremes. A person of a specific identity, cannot be that person, if they don't carry the weight for all of it. 

That is, according to these predatory groups. 


This belief is a rather convenient one, as it opens the door for predatory groups to make the weight of a person's history or past socially heavier than they can ever hope to carry. A form of social torture if you will, whenever they're at home, or in their workplace, or in between - out and about. Predatory groups whose goal it is to remove said history (their soul as stated earlier) from their victim and to transfer it to someone else, who most often is not put in a situation where that weight is heavier than they can handle.


The weight is achieved by subjecting the victim to constant or near constant harassment at the hands of many people simultaneously, who continuously do so until their victim (target) responds in a way that contradicts their history or identity, enough so that the predatory group responsible then justifies associating that person's identity with someone else (usually someone who is a member of their predatory collective), while replacing the victim/target's identity with that of someone else, more consistent with their reaction to the social abuse and torture. This of course is all done very secretively, and often involves collaboration by all the different people who have access to the victim/target. In my experience, it involves corruption in the community. It involves the residents of the building of my home office/residence, and it involves the roving members of the same predatory groups who conduct such harassment while the victim/target is out and about in the community.


There is also an extraordinary effort placed upon keeping the victim/target under constant surveillance, including their cable, phone and internet activity. All of it is used to compile a record of responses to the predatory groups' harassment, and to deem if the person is behaving as themselves and their own history and consistent with their own historic behaviour, or more like someone else, in which case the predatory groups then attribute that person's identity to someone else, and replace their identity with that of another person, usually one who is of a more burdensome and criminal nature. Often involving narcotics. Often involving sex trafficking. Often involving other activities that are nothing like the lifestyle of the victim/target, which indicates that the predatory groups are simply using the victim/target as a dumping ground for their activity, and wearing the notoriety of their victim's identity.


In my case, their scam and ploy, has been to replace my identity with that of Tom Cruise, or Nicolas Cage, making me carry the weight for the characters they've played. 

Most specifically, Tom Cruise in American Made, about Barry Seal who worked for the Medellin Cartel flying thousands of tons of cocaine into the United States as part of a CIA sting operation. He was assassinated at a Salvation Army when the courts leaked where he'd required to stay until his court arrangements had completed. Also, his role in Risky Business, where he as a student applying for Harvard Business School, uses his parents' home as a brothel after befriending a prostitute. 

For Nicolas Cage, it was World Trade Center, about a Police Officer who is trapped while going in to save citizens immediately after the 911 attacks. In the movie, they replaced real life Marine Jason Thomas (who is African American) with a Caucasian actor, which apparently caused a fervor over the issue. In the case of this specific movie, the members of the predatory groups near me are making me pay for that, by giving the credit for my efforts on Shhhh! Digital Media, to members of the African and Caribbean community, and have been doing that for more than a decade now, while erasing my identity and association with my own company, projects and writing. In doing so, because I'm European Canadian, they assume that if I speak out against those actions, that it will make me appear racist or to be guilty of spreading hate speech, which in all truth is not the case. It is never hate speech to clarify the facts of a situation of unfair or unjust treatment by anyone, regardless of their gender, culture or religion, especially if it steps over the line towards criminal harassment.


Just to make it clear, I am not blaming Tom Cruise or Nicolas Cage or Oliver Stone (who directed World Trade Center) or any of the other cast and crew that made those movies. Its not their fault. They were telling a story, and of the people who had a chance to see those movies, there were a very small percentage who were obviously obsessive, and weaponized the issues connected to the characters, and the casting into a form that they could make someone else pay for those issues, that had nothing to do with making the films. A "lamb for the slaughter" or a substitute as it were. Its never the fault of the public figure for the very small percentage of their fans who act on their behalf in a socially destructive or harmful manner. Besides, when avoiding an angry wave of people, it is very easy to find oneself radicalized towards the ends of anger or reaction, in a way that betrays the best of them, and I'd bet that everyone who has ever contended with the social chaos present in fanfare or cacophony could attest to that.


The predatory groups I'm exposing are not of a single specific culture, though they definitely share a common ideological belief and justification for what they're doing that broaches racism (on their part) and violates the rights of their victims/targets in any given community they operate within, which from my experience thus far, indicates that they're pretty much in every community in the city. I'm Canadian by the way, though sometimes it is difficult to tell whether these issues originate from across the border to the south (United States), or whether they're related to issues here. From where it stands right now, it is definitely a bit of both, and there is a connection between these predatory groups here in Canada and the United States. The broken telephone that couriers the social weight back and forth to and from each end.


What I do know, is that for the last fourteen (sixteen) years, I've worked my ass off writing, creating and publishing what became Shhhh! Digital Media, taking it from words on a web page and little art, with no views, to nearly 566151 unique views as of this writing by adding 180,000 from the old sites that made up Shhhh! Digital Media (again, with little more than written words ie novellas and short stories), all the while advocating for charities I selected, supporting them myself when and if I could which was difficult seeing as I'm still struggling financially, and most probably thanks to the predatory groups responsible for stealing my identity and painting me as a very different person than I am. Ironically, the people whose rights I protected the most, became the ones who violated my rights the most. Also ironically, I calculated that if just five percent of the people who showed up to view the site donated $5 each by following the links I provide in each of the novellas and episodes, that it would add up to $140,000 raised for charity. If it was one percent, that would still be about $30,000. Not bad for starting with an idea, and a few words on a page. I believe that the impact of Shhhh! Digital Media has gone much farther than that support of charity alone. For the entire time, I've starved, living on a little under  $400 a month, so having people take my identity and my work from me like that, narcissistically, its very, very harmful and traumatizing and often brings out the worst in me, which these predatory groups then weaponize to imply that I'm nothing like the person who wrote the stories on my web site. They deny me of my own authorship.


As I write this, the members of these predatory groups are replacing my identity with that of someone African so that their culture gets the credit for what I do on Shhhh! Digital Media, while I am burdened with the weight of narcotics and sex trafficking related activity that occurs within the community, despite my never having taken part in neither.

The racist element of this currently (not all of the time), is that said predatory groups are trying to keep the impression of my skin colour being brown, when that is not the case at all. I have no African or Caribbean ancestry at all and I am not a Zionist of any form whatsoever. Replacing my identity to replace my culture or my religion is a hate crime, and if that replacement is enforced by my neighbours and people in the community, then it is a hate crime committed by all them who took part.


The people who harass me during my work day, do so from neighbouring apartments and I kid you not in saying that they do this twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. These are people who don't work. Don't take part in any other aspect of life, except to focus nearly one hundred percent of their attention and harassment upon my person from neighbouring apartments in the building. These are definitely the same people who are conducting the illegal surveillance as well, an aspect I'll get to very soon in this post.


To speak more about the racism, the members of these predatory groups almost always attempt to attribute my writing to the credit of people with brown skin. I don't have brown skin, if you don't count my ever increasing age spots. I'm almost as pale as my goth days back in the 1980s. The members of these predatory groups have been replacing my identity in order to replace my culture with that of a Somalian fellow who regularly hires a transgender sex trade worker, and then to give me the weight of his activities as if it were mine. Now, his business is not my business, but when people make it your weight, it becomes your business, not to mention the fact that the people doing so are doing so purposefully with that intent. 


The people doing this even believe that I'm possessed by the fellow, which I am not by the way and never have been possessed by anyone. They make up a very small percentage of the overall predatory group, and some of these members compete with one another, either culturally, religiously or in other ways to steal a person's identity and to give up the worst weight of their burden to others, so they're used as substitutes for the social punishments of the members of these ideologies, which as I stated earlier, is illegal and this has its own micro-infrastructure enough so that it qualifies as organized crime. Not to mention, its coupled with an illegal surveillance network that in the case of new residents of apartments, include hidden cameras, as crimes related to camera surveillance were quite common from 2000 onward. Especially sextortion. I would recommend that anyone getting an apartment do a very thorough sweep for any possible hidden cameras or bugs. That's not to say that the custodians of the building would do something of that nature, but those apartments had previous residents, and those residents might have had guests, who were members of these predatory groups, and who could have hidden a camera that could then be accessed from a neighbouring apartment. Once again, to clarify my identity, I state that I am not a Zionist or Ziontologist (Zionism mixed with Scientology via Mormonism), and I never have been and certainly never will be. I am not paranoid about cameras in my own apartment, but I do not appreciate having my internet surveilled or my computer keylogged, especially as a content creator and writer.


Identity can also be denied of you by a number of ways. For example, I have multiple email addresses that I use for myself (and nobody else), and there are admins on some of the services that I use that seem to be aware of thing and who are part and parcel of same predatory groups (that actually have communication with those in my community, the two sometimes working together in a coordinated manner to deny me of my own identity). For example, fav.inbox@gmail.com is my email, but so is brian.joseph.johns@shhhhdigital.com. I use both emails and what I've found is that members of the predatory groups, some of whom are admins on my email service, try to divide my identity by implying that my emails are owned by two different people. This also applies to my different devices. My phone for instance is a Samsung Android 4 device (very old), while my tablet is Android 13, and my computer is Windows 11 Pro. The predatory groups coordinate in making it seem that each of those devices belongs to and is operated by a different person other than myself, and yet all three devices are right in front of me as I type this, not to mention I have access to both emails no all but the android 4 device. So the scam in this case would be to make it appear that my phone isn't in the possession of brian.joseph.johns@shhhhdigital.com, but rather fav.inbox@gmail.com and that the two emails are run by two different people. Hence, another proof of the connection between these predatory groups and  a new fangled form of organized crime that seeks to withhold a person's identity from them, so as to aware that identity to someone else.

I literally just tried to open my brian.joseph.johns@shhhhdigital.com email on my android 4 phone and found that I couldn't log in. A short time after rebooting the phone and I found that I couldn't even reach the google servers, meaning there's interference between my device and there and most likely this is conducted by the members of these predatory groups as a means to deny me of my own identity.

Now take that example and watch for things of that nature in your lives, and once you start to see the pattern, you'll know something further is going on behind the scenes and that it is criminal in nature. Not only that, but collectively speaking these groups are of a racist nature, attempting to steal and replace both my identity and culture with that of a culture I'm not. As I stated, I am neither of African or Caribbean descent and do not have brown skin (except a few age spots). These predatory groups seek to replace my identity and culture with that of someone who I am not, while awarding my identity to someone else other than myself. That to me sounds like organized crime, and they're coordinating this effort with groups inside of my building of residence, where the home office of Shhhh! Digital Media is, and even attempting to replace my identity with that of a security guard, despite the fact that I've never worked as a security guard in my life. 


Organized crime for certain, just not the traditional variety but definitely collective in nature and working towards the ends of denying a person of their own identity and for their benefit. That is the nature of what is going on under the hood and its not just affecting me. They're making identity into a commodity that can be stolen and traded between people and quite often is through corruption. Don't forget, in this building it seems to be connected to a sex trafficking ring that has ties with something of that nature in Mississauga. I'm not on the blue team and I'm not on the brown team. These seem to be the colour symbols associated with doing things that way. Of stealing a person's identity and replacing it with someone else's and in Canada, where I'm from and where the Butterfly Dragon Reimagined and the legacy version are both written. I was going to work on the new one today, but seeing as there are people attempting to deny me of my identity, I'll put that on hold. 


I'm not a star by the way. I live in 200 Sherbourne Street Suite 701 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I'm not biracial African or Caribbean and in fact, I'm not African or Caribbean at all. I've never lived in the United States, let alone worked there.


I am not a star by the way, or a part of any cult that swaps people's identity using the colour symbolism of blue or brown.



Predatory Groups and the Source of Mind


Something that drives these predatory groups and their ideas about how the world works is based upon their concept of where the mind of their victims/targets originates. So far, according to my investigation into these matters, the membership of these predatory groups vastly believe that the mind of their victims/targets originates from the homeless shelter population, and the prison system, and they believe this so much so that they actually attempt to audit the victim/target based upon their behaviour and reactions to harassment and abuse by the predatory groups, and if anything good comes from their reactions, the credit is then given to people in the homeless shelter system or the prison system, after the members of these predatory groups audit who they believe the most likely candidates were for the source of their victim/target's mind. 


That is, if you're a victim/target of these cults, then they believe you don't have a mind, and that your mind originates from the homeless shelter population (including the workers) and the prison system ( both inmates and workers). Whatever you say and do that is beneficial in some way is given to their credit, but NEVER yours. You're not even considered to exist, and hence, can never get ahead in society in any fair way ever. Everything that you do, will reward very little if nothing to you, but the people who are assumed to be the source of your mind (the homeless shelter population and the prison system) will be rewarded for your good, and punished for your worst. That isn't to say that you're responsible for their crimes, but it is to say that from the time that these predatory groups decide to subject you to this treatment, that nothing you achieve will ever be given to your credit, and you'll most likely live at or very close to the poverty line, while other people benefit from, and even get wealthy from, your work. Identity replacement is how they hide this when you blow the whistle on them because they want the victims and whistleblowers to appear to be on the same team as the perpetrators, without the public knowing that they're the perpetrators.


Basically, its a bunch of predatory groups competing for the credit for your best efforts, while ensuring that you are never recognized or rewarded for your effort in the same way everyone else is rewarded for theirs (with a pay cheque or an honest wage) and quite often, some (not all) of the predatory groups will after having taken credit for your effort, dump the worst of their garbage onto you, and that's not a negative attitude at all. That's an observation of exactly the nature of what has been going on.


Most recently, the members of these predatory groups have tried replacing my identity with that of someone they refer to as Jake "N", whom I believe is the son or grandson or Donald Sebastien Des Rosiers (who I am not) with all due respect.


Possession


Possession is the belief that a person has become inhabited, for lack of a better term, by one or more disembodied essences, possibly originating from the bodies of other people, or by other entities of unknown origin who possess sentience and intelligence. I'll stick to the predatory groups main belief paradigm which is based upon the idea that they believe a person can become inhabited by other people, kind of like car jacking a person's body.


The idea is that a person can slowly push their way into a person, hence removing anyone else that was in there, which is often symbolized by colour symbolism by said predatory groups, and that the person newly inhabiting the body is responsible for whatever that person says or does. This activity is attempted, especially against creative and productive people as a means to steal their creative or intellectual work, and to wear it as their own. Most often the people who attempt to practice this are members of or associated with the predatory groups, and hence it benefits their groups if they are successful in their goal, which seems to be fooling the rest of the public in a community into believing that such a thing is occurring. So basically, they don't have to achieve it, they just have to fool people into believing that its happening and since most of the people who are part of these predatory groups are... predatory... and benefit from doing so, they tend to go along with it despite the evidence.


In my Era of the Spellbound episodic series, possession is an aspect of the story, as three of supporting characters are possessed, but the way I've employed it as a story telling vehicle is metaphorical more so than as a promotion of the idea of possession. The metaphor involves the idea that people you knew leave an imprint upon you, part of your memory or even your soul, that gives you access to their insights despite their absence. In the stories, these insights are direct and in the form of conversation the possessed has with their occupiers.


The other metaphor is based upon a scientific model of the human body and nervous system biofield as the means of being a WIFI of the human body. The means by which two or more people can connect to one another by their own body energy, which is the result of a naturally occurring magnetic field. Nervous systems, even of two different bodies are very physiologically similar, enough so that information from one body may be compatible with information from another, via Maxwell's laws of electromagnetism. In two connected bodies according to this model, a person would have access to the perceptual input of a person's sensory organs: their ears certainly, their eyes in some rare cases, and their mind's eye, the cognitive viewpoint through which a person recalls their memories. 


In Butterfly Dragon: The Two Butterflies series, I explored this idea thoroughly, even investigating the science behind it, enough to so create a working theory and model for such interconnection of human bodies. Not to mention, these predatory groups are and have been operating with these methods for far longer, which they refer to as technique or technology. The ability to connect to another person's body, and have it so they can verbally harass you, even at long distances away, and you'll still hear them clearly because they're directly connected to your nervous system and you theirs. You're hearing what their ears are hearing, and they can hear what your ears are hearing. If you talk, your ears hear it, which means they can hear it. If they talk, its the same thing. You can hear it. This is other aspect of the metaphor I wanted to represent in Era of the Spellbound, however, the characters are inhabited by two souls. The characters, and the soul of the displaced person, who is like a stowaway. I do not believe in possession per se, but I do believe that the body can be biohacked electromagnetically, by other people who practice and experience in focusing and directing their body energy. The predatory group in my building by way of my neighbours most likely attempt to do so regularly. They're quite invasive and constantly are trying to steal my identity or my work, and replace my identity with that of someone else, almost always that of someone with brown skin, despite my not having brown skin. This seems to be their constant goal and is likely a clue as to the identity of the ideology behind this and its racist nature.


Even close members of my own family have attempted to pull the wool over others' eyes, implying that I'm from Nova Scotia, or that I'm biracial African or Caribbean (which I'm not), or even that I'm a guitar player (which I'm not). Whomever is at the other end of this is getting all of the credit for my work on Shhhh! Digital Media and that is what makes this organized crime. Also, there is a sex trafficking network in the building, and they've been attempting to dump the garbage for that activity onto me as my burden, and this sex trafficking ring seems to be connected to Mississauga, and utilizes a network of delivery drivers as well. They've many times, tried to imply me as using sex workers (I've never hired a prostitute), and have constantly tried to paint me as being someone who has a brown fetish (which I've never had in my life). I'm actually attracted to European and Southeast Asian women, but not Filipino. So these predatory groups are trying to sell me as being a very different person, both in terms of my culture and appearance and my lifestyle and behaviour.

However, I am not possessed nor am I a member of any religion or ideology that would go along with that idea or enforce that upon a person and use it as a justification to steal their identity. I would do something like expose it, especially given the fact that there are a wide variety of people who read Shhhh! Digital Media. On both sides of the law, and both who don't appreciate the activities of said predatory groups, though I am not giving it directly to them, I am just making it available to whomever stumbles across the information in the hopes that they might benefit from it or be able to mobilize something more than have I in the bid to stop it.


Identity, Memory and Existential Experiences


Another aspect there is to possession, is that there are people who make up the membership of these predatory ideologies who believe that some of us don't have our own mind or memories. Kind of like we're the replicants from the movie Blade Runner. People whose impression of personal history was artificially created by inserting the memories of other people, or even the muscle and motor memory associated with their skill set and talents.


For instance, if I recall first playing the piano by sitting down at it and playing with it a bit every day over the course of a year from when I was eight years old (1975), and then having my real father (whose name begins with a D) sit down a few times with me and teach me the basics of music theory, enough to get me going, then there are people who would assume according to their beliefs, that I'm (conveniently?) remembering someone else's life other than my own, but claiming that memory was a part of my life. Lying in other words. A year and a half after learning to play piano on my own with my father's guidance, when my parents were confident that I'd stick with it, they enrolled me in conservatory lessons, which begat one of the many paths in life I've explored. Around the same time is when I studied Tai Kwon Do for about a year at a YMCA a couple blocks west of the piano conservatory despite my lack of coordination and athletic ability. I was horrible at anything athletic, hence the lessons themselves stuck, but the coordination didn't. I even recall the fact that in Tai Kwon Do, which is of Korean origin and develops endurance and quick strikes, that there are many terms that cross over from both Japan and China, that are used in actual Tai Kwon Do training, given the historical connections between these three empires. I was horrible at it and did not like the idea of fighting. A very fearful young person whose body at that time wasn't  designed for that sort of thing. I was young and missed the point, which is that its not about fighting other people, though it is about developing discipline and confidence to deal with conflict. Its about conquering yourself.


Regardless, those memories of mine, would be regarded by these predatory groups as not having come from me, and they would do everything that they could to depict it as being otherwise, even removing entire pieces of my own history from me, despite the fact that I have numerous people in my circle from those days who'd recall those times, despite the effort to alter the truth of history by these predatory groups.


So, the idea is that if someone like myself does not have a mind, or their own memories, that those who do and are of  "superior" stock and beliefs, must supply those aspects to the lives of such lesser persons as myself. That's the illusion that they attempt to craft, and for those of you who are slightly more literate, you'd realize that illusion is a synonym for the word lie, with a fancier presentation and ambiguity. Illusion is the word that you use, when you aren't outright lying for the purpose of altering history, but are creating something that doesn't intend to represent any aspect of what has been. Its more of an artistic approach, where as a lie, is an outright attempt to alter or obscure the truth of things that have transpired, to the benefit of one or more people, and the detriment of one or more people.


If a group erases a person's history or suppresses it, that person likely has a trove of experiences and skills that they've acquired during that time, that such predatory groups could imply to others foolish enough to believe so, that those aspects of that person originate from the membership of their predatory groups. For example, one predator of that nature might claim: they can't really play piano. they're just remembering someone else's memory, or they're wearing someone else's identity and history to make theirs look better. Of course, when you then demonstrate that you can in fact play the piano, and do it right in front of them, this is where things get really weird. They'll collectively remember that as having come from one of their predatory group members, but not from you. They'll gang up to enforce the lie, which is a form of organized crime by the way.


Rather than the truth of their ideology being broken, they'd collectively lie to conceal a person's truth and oppress them, and even wear that person's truth as their own. The exact thing about which they're accusing that person, and they're guilty of it.


So, with these predatory groups, they are collectively altering truth, by coordinating the power of their ability to alter their recollection of things, to remember things in a way that isn't accurate in order to preserve their beliefs and ideology, despite that ideology clearly not lining up with truth.


Even the stuff I'm writing in this post will be targeted in such a way. If I recall working in the film industry, then someone will come up with a way to make it seem like I'm remembering someone else's memories, rather than my own, but in speaking up and in protection of the creative people who often get targeted by such predatory groups, I'm proving that I am myself amongst them, rather than one of them. As much so as they are themselves amongst each other. The difference is that I don't deny anyone of the dignity of their individuality, while still protecting the group on the basis of our ideals.


I can do lots of different stuff. Some of it well. Some of it not so well. And some of it horribly. The point is that we are not confined to a solitary existence, pursuing on thing alone that limits us and our time and experiences in such a way that when we endeavor to learn and achieve something else, others frown upon us as if we're breaking reality. As if life is a train track, and that you can't go sideways. You can't go up or down. You can only go backward and forward. That is their limit, the limit of these predatory groups.


So, if I remember myself as being an Atheist that leans toward Buddhism and Taoism and Paganism, and with a very cautious allegiance to my former Catholic religion, there are people who'd say that I'm remembering someone else's life, or better yet, the lives of other people: an Atheist, a Buddhist, a Taoist, a Paganist and someone who has a very cautious allegiance with Catholics.


When Buddhists say of the observer and the observed, that there is no observer, that there is only the observed, they're trying to say that the observer and the observed are part of the same system.  The same experience. There is no separation or isolation from that which we observe. We're a part of it. We're the observed looking at itself, and this in no way says that we do away with the concept of I or Me. Anyone who believes otherwise, be sure to take your name off of your pay cheques before you choose to speak out against that idea or the concept of the self. 


There is an I, except when you're in love, then there's only a we. That's a very overt hint as to what I meant by my very, very short poem from many years ago: There is no I in us or we. I was talking about love, not collectivism. Of course, Nintendo explained that concept in a very creative way when they named their WII Video game system ;-) Ironically, the woman I was thinking about when I wrote that is Southeast Asian.


These memories and the skills attached to this body, are a part of it and the localized experiences it has had. That mind, body and essence are what is called I, and that is something uniquely different to each of us that we all have and it can't be taken from us, despite how predatory groups and ideologies might try to alter that idea and turn it around to become an idea that can be cannibalized by collectivism, selective memory and a weaponization of the golden rule by the same predatory groups.


Now comes to dealing with the aspect of my life, where I have chosen to pursue writing, after having pursued a few other ambitions in life, including a hobbyist martial artist (Tae Kwon Do), working as an ice cream scooper, working as a furniture mover, as a worker on a window and door production line, a computer programmer, an airborne trooper who never got his jump wings, a hobbyist martial artist (Goju Ryu), working as a computer technician, a hobbyist cyclist (riding several thousand kilometers in my life, 200 km per sitting), working as a keyboardist musician who has gigged numerous times in front of crowds as large as ten thousand (perhaps a hundred and fifty gigs in all over the course of five years), a computer technician (again), working as a computer programmer for CGI production, a hobbyist martial artist (Goju Jujitsu Ryu), working as a web developer (solo developing small web apps), a hobbyist martial artist (Chen style Tai Chi in Bridgepoint Park near Sun Yat-Sen Monument), working as an entrepreneur/web developer and writer (Shhhh! Digital Media), working as a landscaper (at 48 as a vehicle to get myself in hardcore good shape), a hobbyist martial artist (Aikido), still working as an  entrepreneur/business owner/writer/web developer.


The truth was that I tried writing as a hobby from the age of nine years old, when I was attending Kingslake Public School. I was a very shy kid, and wrote quite a bit and not just for the school projects, but for my own personal ambitions, but I seldom showed anyone my written work, but I can remember every single time that I did. I had friends who were very ardent about showing off their work, and between us, there was some overlap of ambitions, and hence some people I knew from back then became known as having the skills that I seldom showed to others. So when I finally chose to try those things out, there were people naturally who assumed that I was trying to steal someone else's history, but the irony of it all is that it seems that every one of those people were members of these predatory groups. Writing was one of the things that was first attacked about my person. I knew other people who'd written, and of course when in 2010 at the age of forty-two I returned to writing after having tried it when I was nine years old up until I was twelve, and then again when I was nineteen up until I was twenty-one, there were people who accused me of stealing other people's history. People who also had tried writing, and the way that these predatory groups handle things is that if you exhibit a skill that one of their members has, they attack you socially in such a way to imply that you stole their history, or their skill from them, and then proceed to erase you collectively, as a form of social organized crime.


Once they get their teeth in on you on one thing (for me it was writing), they continue on and "audit" all of your demonstrated life skills, and one by one they imply that everything you can do came from the membership of their predatory group, and one by one they remove that aspect of reputation from your life, or at least try to.


The truth is that there are many creative people out there who spend their time and effort trying many different things, and often getting quite good at many different things, and they are often attacked for their ambitions and lack of fear. If they don't team up with groups that will protect them, then they often fall victim to these predatory groups that are the common place in society nowadays. I'm an independent content creator (Shhhh! Digital Media), and have been going through this ever since I started, with members of these predatory groups assuming that the characters of my books are siphoned from people, rather than based upon my experiences with different people. For instance, you'll find many different qualities within the characters (Mila, Helayne, Shaela, Monique, Nelony, Alicia for example), with each of those qualities being consistent within the specific character, though they are probably inspired by more than one person or entirely invented qualities that fit with the character. The characters are in most cases a collection of aspects that I've observed and admired or despised in my experiences with people, occasionally being qualities that I created that fit with the character.


There are people whom I admire, who inspire exploring story ideas with my characters, and I'm grateful to those people because a lot of what I do as a writer is about admiration for both people, and the idea of their qualities being so overwhelming in some way shape or form that often misses the awareness of others. That's what good story tellers do. So there is no single person that drive these characters. There are people who inspired their creation, and from there, the characters became their own thing, occasionally finding inspiration from real life people, whom I often integrate into a story as a way let them know that I see them as they are and admire them. But the characters aren't me absorbing and becoming someone else while I write them. It just doesn't work that way. I can sit down and write Nelony, and then jump to a different story and write Stanton, without there being any significant change in myself. 

There's a change in the mood and the way I have to think, but that change isn't something that necessarily comes from the outside. I know the characters so well that I can write any of them any time I choose. But inspiring moments put forth by those I admire certainly drive a lot of what I find to be so amicable about people, and character writing. I don't wear other people's lives though, and no matter how hard someone tries to manipulate me, they'll never twist my writing in a way that I didn't already intend it to go. Especially with the characters. I'll never back down over the identities of the characters, and never change their culture for anyone. Helayne is Chinese (Canadian) and a talented artist and fashion designer who spent her early life divided between one of two paths (an aspect that will become prominent in Butterfly Dragon Reimagined). Alicia is Canadian (with British/German heritage) who started out as an introverted genius, who slowly opens up to the world like a flower (maybe a Lily?). Mila is Japanese (with mixed Japanese/Austrian ancestry) who finds peace and solace in her creativity and art, also observing that she has an innate ability to alter reality through it. Shaela is as spicy Welsh as they come, with a cold edge to balance the symbolism of her eye colour and the definitive red headed goth whose path one should never cross. Mianamor Selembrosi is a Roman/Italian woman whose story arc took her from the side of darkness of the soul, to the light of knowledge and inspiration, and she is now a learned teacher and helping to rebuild what was lost. Nelony is definitely German/Baltic though living in Shepperton off the Thames, UK, and a lover and protector of nature. Athandra Rithyani is from India, and a Sorceress of Ganesha, and like Nelony, a lover of nature. I know these characters inside and out, and I'll never alter their ancestry for anyone, no matter the money or opportunity. The same goes for all of the characters I didn't mention.


The best way that I can put it, with regard to the idea of preserving one's own being, identity and sense of self, is that no matter how much we pretend, there are people out there who are similar to us in their obsession, and their love of trying different things in their creativity, who aren't going to be held down by predatory groups. When I speak up, and it sounds like I'm only speaking up for myself, in truth I'm saying what thousands, perhaps millions if not billions want to say, but can't say it out of the risk imposed by doing so. It might seem that I'm only speaking for myself, but in all truth, I'm giving a voice to everyone who feels the same way and probably is subject to the same sort of thing. It takes a LOT of strength and courage to stick to one's own path, when everyone else around them is trying to force them down a path that is not theirs. If there is nothing destructive outwardly that arises from one's own life path of that nature, then one should stick up for it and stick to it, because you'll only have yourself to blame if you don't, and living regret of knowledge of having turned away simply because they're roads less traveled, is not the kind of regret I want to be present as I approach the close of my life. 

In those final moments, the reconciliation of your life, your loves, your pursuits and your conduct are between you and yourself and nobody else. Live life well, and remember that those final moments will leave you alone with your most harsh of judges: yourself. Don't miss out as a result of predatory groups trying to tame your spirit and ambition, but remember not to let them radicalize you towards egotism and narcissism to discredit what you're about. If you're a real charmer, you'll find a way so that everyone can enjoy a few moments without being ultimately divided, keeping in mind that you should never sacrifice your sincerity or integrity to appease the other side.


What I say is definitely coming from me, but who I say it for is definitely every inspired artist, content creator, influencer, story teller (both truth and fiction) and creative out there.


Harvest


Harvest refers to the time of the month (the last week of the month), when the predatory groups make a concerted effort to take their victim/target's identity and the work they've accomplished over the previous month, and credit it to members, while often replacing the identity of their target with very heavy burden of some form (like a Somalian man who hires a transgender sex worker for frequent service). I wouldn't say anything normally, but when people purposely make it your weight, and purposely make it very heavy, I am in the right to expose that, not to mention the connection internally with a sex trafficking ring that has ties with Mississauga.


The idea is that what they take from me, is what goes to their girls and girlfriends or romantic partners (most of whom appear to be part of the sex trafficking network), when what they leave me with is their garbage. So they get the best stuff of Shhhh! Digital Media (its like taking a person's soul remember and they take the best parts), and they dump their worst onto the very person from whom they're taking it. So if I have fond thoughts of a woman I love, that's essentially what she's going to get. A Somalian man and a transgender sex worker, rather than the heroic aspects of the female characters I write. So they're taking the best of me, and leaving the worst of them, and this is an organized part of their predatory group's and organized crime.


Ego and Humility


One of the things I rarely discuss is how these predatory groups attempt to cultivate the worst qualities in their victim/target. When I started the journey of publishing my novellas and episodic stories, and the accompanying content, I pretty much left every post as it was with a small signature at the bottom. No photo, or anything else to associate my content with an identity. Just my name, and usually just my first name.


The first time that you encounter these predatory groups, you begin from that moment forward to develop a form of hypervigilance, especially where it concerns your identity and the association of your content with that identity. If there's a pay cheque at the end of a day, that arises as a result of your hard work and dedication, you definitely want to make certain that its your name on it.


People who talk about doing away with one's name and identity, not to criticize them, but there's a consistent aspect that you'll notice about everyone who attacks identity as a form of ego they're trying to do away with in others, and that's those same people, always have an identifiable brand name and registered business under that name. It most likely appears on their residual cheques or their payments from sponsorship, advertising and adsense. Their identity is already very much secured and part of their income pipeline, while the people they attack are in the young process of building those aspects of their brand. The time when its most important to secure those ideas and protect them, perhaps not so much obsessively and with hubris, but more so responsibly.


When you begin to have predatory groups constantly harassing you, and in the process, attempting to take your identity from you and replace it with someone else's, you tend to become what appears to others as egotistical. Vigilant about being certain that your content, name and brand is protected and associated with your person. To others, this can and slowly will start to resemble egotism and perhaps hubris, and for that matter it might be an aspect that these predatory groups are attempting to cultivate in you. Often, their goal is to setup a duality (possibly Gnostic) between yourself and someone else, where you're the hate side, and the other person is the love side, and quite often that other person is someone that you don't know or have any association with.


In this sense, it is very parasitic and intended as that, because the predatory groups are actively cultivating the worst qualities in you in order to setup and maintain this paradigm, which in essence feeds another person, at your expense, and while that is occurring, at the same time, the flaws of your hypervigilant character are harming the impression of you on the part of those who enjoy your content. 

Often, if your content has a positive message or promotes aspects important to you as a content creator, the predatory groups attempting to cultivate the worst of you create a contradiction between you and the very nature of your content, and give them another avenue to make it seem like someone else is producing it other than you, which once again feeds the cycle, rather than a healthy business sense where you responsibly protect your identity and content and have done with it. I find that after these harassment and stalking sessions, that I'm hypervigilant for an hour or two afterwards, and that my personality is very confrontational, as I'm experiencing the trauma of the anticipation of reliving more trauma, and again, that feeds the entire cycle and can harm your well being. It can also cultivate a me versus them aspect that the moment you realize it, you'll understand that its very unhealthy. Balancing between protecting those aspects that seem vulnerable. Those aspects of you, your identity and your output and the potential that someone else might be wearing all of those things as their own. Its a bumpy road finding the right approach and balance to handle those challenges.


So again, am I egotistical? No. Not generally. Egotism is a lack of belief in oneself, whose symptoms include an impression and the expression of grandeur far exceeding one's capabilities, as a means to shore up the difference between that lack of belief a person has in themself, and where they need to be, in a centered state of calm and productivity. I am confident in what I can achieve, but that isn't a competition between anyone but me and myself. A healthy one.


There's a big difference between the solo, isolated content creator, and those whose livelihood depends upon working with hundreds of other creatives whose egos are equally fragile and who each want to have their creativity as part of the end product of what they're trying to achieve. 


This is definitely the paradigm of production work, as in streaming or film production (I've worked in film). Everyone is super friendly and easy to get along with before the pressure starts. During the course of a production, the pressure singles out different people, or different groups of people and all at different times and rates of pressure. Some of them are good, perhaps experienced and comfortable in dealing with those challenges, while others can have a difficult time and neither are better or worse. 


That's just the way it is, and unfortunately, if you fall into the category of the latter group, those who have a difficult time dealing with pressure, that might harm your future marketability for work in production and with other people, or you'll take notice of that, and invest in courses or workshops that help you to deal with that as indicated in this ChatGPT prompt.


Its the same with being an isolated content creator and then being targeted by a predatory group who are parasitic in nature and working towards cultivating the worst of your qualities as a form of character assassination, or as I stated, because to some of these groups, the concept of identity is reinforced in certain communities as an agreement between the community and the person whose identity it is. When such predatory groups become involved, the ownership of one's own identity quickly becomes vulnerable to those in the community who bend to the pressure of predatory groups in the same community. In such a case, you can live amongst thousands, who will effectively regard you as someone else other than yourself, while they regard one of their own as you, mostly in order to take the credit for your work. The challenge is not letting them destroy you. Retrospect is always a thousand times more effective hours after an experience of that kind, but rarely during. Commit yourself to decisions to deal with such activity hours after having experienced it, not minutes after.


On a last note, I ran into a woman earlier in the day who appeared lost, and needed a safe place to go. I know a few of the local services in the community, those geared towards helping one get on their feet as part of the social safety net, but when I encountered this person, it was half-way into a stalking attack, though thankfully I wasn't rude, and spent as much time as I could afford to help her find her way, before I finally had to turn and make my way to my destination, which had time constraints. There are certain things I value, but if in a situation where I'm stressed or hypervigilant, I'm not making the best decisions. Like, I could have pulled my phone and despite it being very old (android 4?), I probably could have found the specific location of the kind of place she was seeking in the form of a social program, and given her exact directions. Instead, I had to direct her in a general direction and hope that she got to where she needed to be. Of course, I thought about it later, and wondered about how I could have done more. I was stressed as a result of the day's first stalking already being underway, but I handled that situation with calm, but not as effectively as I could have. On one hand, I have this rage against these predatory groups, for undermining my effectiveness in that regard, and on the other, I'm thinking that it would be a good idea to become more aware of those aspects of the community, despite my having plans to relocate when I can.


My point is that this activity takes a toll on you in ways that much like working in film, you need an effective solution dealing with such issues and unfortunately in communities with these predatory groups, if you end up in a course, you can literally be stalked out of it. You're pretty much on your own when it comes to such matters (hence my suggestion of online courses which allow you to use content at your own leisure and pace and in the relative safety of your own environment). Predatory groups are most often attempting to replace your history with someone else's while taking the best of your history from you to give to someone else. They also mostly believe that you aren't operating under your own mind, if you're a victim/target of such activity. When you're good, you are possessed by the identity of one of theirs. When you're bad, you're possessed by one of those whose garbage they're trying to get rid of. You quite literally are not yourself, ever. That describes predatory very accurately and their modus operandi is isolate, and prey upon a person's identity, ego and emotional state and it is definitely a new fangled form of organized crime.


I hope that I was able to explain a bit more with regard to ego, and how this sort of thing effects a person. I have no problems with the best of me or the worst of me, but I do have a problem with anyone trying to take my identity and history from me and will defend those aspects of my life and being.


One thing that I've noticed about these predatory groups that is related to a person's history, is that any attitude or behaviour about yourself with which they disagree you having, they attempt to claim that you took it from someone else. For instance, I've always for as long as I can remember, been attracted to European and Southeast Asian women, though the early parts of these predatory groups often made certain that if and when I stated dating, that I only date those of my own blood (which gives another clue as to their identity) and the members of these predatory groups seem to be very adamant about enforcing that, and if you actually have blood that links you to Southeast Asia, they'll do everything they can to cut that off, and force you over to their racist side of the fence, which requires you to step away from Southeast Asia and that is most often their goal. Especially with me being the writer of the Butterfly Dragon, which is very strongly tied to Southeast Asia.


The first girlfriends I had in life, were arranged by the cult behind these predatory groups, who wanted to make sure that I was on one side of the cultural fence, but not the other. As I stated, they'd deny it left right and center, but they're in fact a racist group. They're against someone like myself, who is European Canadian having any sort of relationship with someone who is Southeast Asian, except for someone Filipino. So, they're a racist group.


Any relationships I've had with Southeast Asian women, they've attempted to erase. Either by stalking those women (if they weren't Filipino), or by replacing my identity with someone else's, or by claiming to other people that I was trying to steal someone else's identity, for instance, that of John Penny, who dated at one time a Japanese woman. The members of these predatory groups would basically claim that I'm stealing someone else's history, but they'd do everything they could to make sure that such a relationship did not happen, and if one did, they'd erase it by stalking the women, and by stalking me and spreading lies and rumours about me in that regard.


So, basically, they're a criminal group who attempt to control every aspect of their victim/target's life, and from what I've seen, they have help from some members of infrastructure who are members of their ideology. Corruption in other words, that favours their ideology and enforces the rules of their ideology in the communities they inhabit. Once again, I am not a Jehovah's Witness or a member of Prince Hall. I'm an Atheist that leans toward Buddhism and Taoism and Paganism.

Blue and Polarity Reversal


For these groups, their secret weapon is blue. If you speak out against them, the colour blue saves them, because they often attempt to force their victim/target onto the blue team, and what this does is that everything the victim/target expresses is interpreted as the exact opposite as what was expressed.


So, if I state that I'm not attracted to African and Caribbean women, that would be interpreted as the opposite. If I state that I'm attracted to European and Southeast Asian women, that would be interpreted as the exact opposite. Every criticism I leveled against them legally would then be reverted to the opposite, which would not help the situation at all.


Their defense mechanism in that way is like the rape defense of no means yes


Fortunately, though, through the years, I've come to know a few Justices of the Peace over the years, and have found that when they encounter people of that ilk in the courtroom, they have a way to deal with it:


If no means yes, then an innocent plea must mean a guilty plea.


I am not on the blue team at all. I'm not a Jehovah's Witness or a member of Prince Hall. I say what I mean and mean what I say. I don't polarity reverse my expression and never have, according to any colour symbolism, and I'm not being sarcastic right now. Hate isn't love and love isn't hate.


Now, if that fails, and these predatory groups, the people who protect them and their sex trafficking ring ever end up having to contend with the law, at least I know that their innocent plea will be interpreted as a guilty plea by the kind of Justices of the Peace that I call friends.


Insofar as consensual adult online content goes, its far safer for everyone, it treats women far better and healthier, and its perfectly natural.


I'll be back to writing at some time in the near future, I just need to recover from the most recent harassment and identity attack. The next two episodes (Era and Butterfly) are going to be pretty big and in depth stories within themselves. The wait will be worth it.


Until then, check out the updated Tales of the SanctumButterfly Dragon and Grand Tapestry of Moments pages. They now include links to the growing library of audiobooks.
