For those of you old enough to remember back to 1978, Hollywood released a disturbing movie called ‘The Invasion of the Body Snatchers’ starring Donald Sutherland. It provides a scary parallel to what’s happening in the Western world today.
In the movie “a San Francisco health inspector and his colleague … discover that humans are being replaced by alien duplicates; each is a perfect biological clone of the person replaced, but devoid of empathy and humanity.”1
As the plot develops it becomes clear that “an amorphous parasitic alien race” has abandoned its dying planet and travelled to Earth, “taking the form of small seed pods with pink flowers upon germination”, then “needing the victims to fall asleep to be fully replaced.” The intent of the aliens is to “replace humanity with serene, emotionless duplicates, whose only goal is survival.”1 Once all the humans have been replaced, the earth will have been conquered and the alien’s rule will be complete. The film does not have a happy ending – spoiler alert – in contrast to most Hollywood movies, the aliens win!
One could be forgiven for thinking that’s exactly what’s happening to planet Earth right now. We are seeing the invasion of our institutions, taken over by woke neo-Marxist-socialist ideologies of rampant anti-male feminism, white privilege, intersectionality, ‘climate change’, transgenderism, Aboriginal revisionist history and a host other mind-numbing irrational ideas. This infection, this disease, is taking over the minds of so many otherwise sensible individuals, especially our youth. Australians in their droves are ‘falling asleep’ and their minds are being replaced!
Symptoms of this malaise are primarily an absence of any real knowledge of history, or any understanding of how the world actually works, a reduction of rational thought and common sense, but most of all, the failure of people to speak out and say ‘No’, clearly stating ‘This is rubbish; we do not agree with it, we do not want it!’
The most disturbing element of this invasion is the now widespread ‘conformity behaviour’ where even though people know something is wrong and not true, and within themselves they completely disagree with it, they still will not speak up.
Conformity behaviour occurs when a person or group change their actions, attitudes, or opinions to match those of others, especially authority figures. Conformity behaviour can be driven in many ways. It may be a (often misplaced) belief that someone else knows more about a topic than they do, or to gain approval, or avoid criticism from others, that is, to be liked and not be excluded from the group, or to cooperate with and be obedient to authority figures, or to avoid ‘punishment’ however inflicted or, sadly, that most Australians are just ‘too polite’ and ‘too tolerant’ to say anything. This is a big mistake; it’s long overdue time to speak up!
The best example of conformity behaviour is the now ubiquitous ‘Welcome to Country’, with the below mandated from the 2018 Taungurung Recognition and Settlement Agreement:
3.3 Protocol on acknowledgements and welcomes to country:
The Parties will follow the Protocol on Acknowledgements and Welcomes to Country in Schedule 4.
Acknowledgements, Welcomes to Country and other Taungurung cultural services provide an opportunity to educate and enrich the lives of visitors to Taungurung country. Continuing to build understanding and respect for Taungurung cultures and traditions, which are part of the collective heritage of Victoria, strengthens the relationship between Taungurung and other Victorians and contributes to better outcomes for all Victorians.
A Welcome to Country generally consists of a speech by a representative of the Taungurung, but may include other cultural practices such as traditional song, music, dance and smoking ceremonies.
Under their traditional laws and customs, the Taungurung have a right to welcome visitors to their country.
A Welcome to Country may be appropriate at all events on Taungurung country. Welcomes to Country are expected for major official events sponsored by the State and occurring within the Agreement area, where members of the public, representatives of government and/or the media are present.
Note that the text refers to “their country”; it’s no longer ‘our country’. And yet it’s almost universally known that the ‘Welcome to Country’ was invented in 1976 by Ernie Dingo and Richard Walley.
Dingo rose to fame when he controversially collaborated with Richard Walley to create a public performance of the ‘Welcome to Country’ ceremony in Perth in 1976, after dancers from the Pacific islands would not perform without one.3
The Welcome to Country as we know it today is not an Aboriginal ‘welcome’ at all, it’s a political statement to drive home the point to ‘non-Aboriginal’ people that this is NOT your land – it’s ours! Yet nobody says a word. This indoctrination process plays on normal human behaviour and emotions, and is therefore highly manipulative. Eventually, people may even change their thoughts and believe it – the indoctrination is then complete. This is what’s happening across the country today, and especially in our schools at all kinder, primary, secondary and tertiary levels.
Australia, and Victoria in particular, is in the midst of a massive alien indoctrination campaign (and I say ‘alien’ because it is alien to our Australian culture and heritage) where even children in primary schools are now being taught songs to celebrate the ‘Frontier Wars’ and given a ‘poppy’ (in this case, an Australian Desert Pea) to pin on their shirts in remembrance of the fallen Aboriginal ‘soldiers’. This indoctrination is, of course, all based on a lie – there were no ‘frontier wars’. It’s time to wake up!
Why are people too afraid to speak out? Fear! Fear of peer censure, of punishment, of exclusion, of ostracism, of loss of career advancement or loss of employment, and as increasingly seen in (not so) Great Britain, even imprisonment! History is replete with examples of what happens to those who stand up for what they believe in and speak out, whether it be Sir Thomas More in the Middle Ages, the Tolpuddle Martyrs in the 19th century, or Dietrich Bonhoeffer in the Nazi era. The most horrendous recent examples occurred during the 2020-22 Covid crisis, with protestors in Melbourne being shot with rubber bullets and Canadian truck drivers having their bank accounts frozen! If you disagree with big Government, punishment is assured.
Today’s indoctrinators and manipulators make good use of the carrot and the big stick. If you meekly acquiesce and go along with what you’re told, all will be well (except within your soul). If you don’t, then heaven help you. This is not how a free and democratic society is supposed to work. The centuries-old robust discussion of ideas is being stifled, replaced with ‘do as you’re told’. This cannot end well.
Western society is being assailed by the Invasion of the Mind Snatchers, although the body snatchers also continue their evil work through ‘gender reassignment surgery’. Unless more and more Australians start to speak out against what is being done to us, I fear that we too will meet the same fate as those in the Hollywood movie.
The ‘Invasion of the Body Snatchers’ was truly a horror movie. What we are witnessing with the demise of Western society and culture today is also a horror movie of huge proportions, but it’s real! We should all be very scared. Today’s victims of the mind and body snatchers may not be ‘devoid of empathy and humanity’ but they are certainly devoid of intellect, of knowledge, of facts, of common sense, or an ability to think for themselves, or to see through the blatant lies, or an ability to stand up for what they believe in.
Whilst a victory was won with the 2023 ‘Voice’ referendum, it has not stopped the invaders at all, and before too long it will be too late. The alien mind snatchers, who certainly commenced their invasion through the halls of academia, and latterly through the walls of the ABC, may end up devouring us all. Who knows – has anyone seen any mysterious seed pods lately?
