Blueprints of Control

The 5 Greatest Schemes That Shaped Humanity – And Still Do

History, when stripped of its heroic narratives and sanitized textbooks, reveals a chilling pattern – a series of brilliant schemes that have allowed a small elite to control the many. These mechanisms of control didn’t just appear once; they evolved, changed costumes, and continue to operate to this day. Let’s break down five of the greatest manipulations in human history – and how they still shape our reality.

1. Conquest Through Religion

Before nuclear weapons, tanks, or drones, there was a simpler way to dominate entire civilizations: spiritual submission. You didn’t need to conquer with swords – you only had to say, “See this piece of wood? It’s holy. Obey us.”
From the mass baptisms of indigenous peoples to the bloody Crusades and the colonization of the Americas under the banner of “bringing the light of Jesus,” religion was the first great tool of submission.
The result? Land seized, cultures dismantled, and people morally subdued and funnelled toward enriching distant empires.

2. Money Out of Thin Air

When brute force proved inefficient, a more elegant scam emerged: invent money. Just print paper – and watch people hand over their homes, food, and labour in exchange for it.
From the first banks of Venice to the Rothschild banking dynasty and the U.S. dollar’s departure from the gold standard, it became clear: control the currency, control the world.
The result? You trade your hard work = a sack of grain – for a few pieces of paper, and you’re even thankful for the deal.

3. Global Wars with Hidden Agendas

War has always been the great reset button. Justify it with noble causes, line people up for the meat grinder, and when the dust settles – rebuild the system on your terms.
World War I? A colonial land grab.
World War II? A complete restructuring of the global financial system and power hierarchy.
The result? Old debts erased, new rulers installed, economies redesigned = all under the pretense of liberation and peace.

4. Profitable Enemies

What’s the best way to keep people scared, obedient, and spending? Invent enemies.
The Cold War painted the USSR and the USA as mortal foes while both fed their military industries and controlled internal dissent.
Then came terrorism. Then endless wars in the Middle East, conveniently near oil fields.
The result? Fear became an industry. Instead of buying new shoes, people stocked bunkers and bullets – and the defence sector cashed in.

5. Scheduled Crises

Suddenly – boom! A financial collapse. “Don’t worry,” they say, “we’ll fix it.” But somehow, the rich get richer while the poor lose everything.
The Great Depression, the 2008 financial crisis, the economic side effects of the 2020 pandemic – all played the same role.
The result? The middle class shrinks, the elite buy everything at bargain prices, and we’re told this is just the cycle of life.

Same Schemes, New Packaging

And here’s the scary part: these schemes never actually ended – they just evolved.
Instead of crosses, they wave flags. Instead of swords, they hold peace talks. Instead of battleships, they send investment funds.
But the goal remains the same: extract as much as possible from you – your labour, your loyalty, your soul – and make you celebrate it like it’s a gift.
