It's good to get knowledge about all the conspiracies going on and the history of it. The problem however, is that there is a risk of getting stuck at that level.
To prevent that from happening we can start looking at some key aspects, common attributes of how the power elite operate. On such key aspect is manipulation.
Manipulation doesn't necessarily involve outright lies. The only thing the manipulators need is to hide their true intents. If people would know the true intent, the game would be over for the manipulators.
So saturated has our civilization become, that even we ourselves use manipulation in our everyday lives. The difference between the masses and the elite is that while we ordinary people use manipulation in small matters, the power elite use monumental and monstrous manipulations, such as funding, planning and starting both sides of wars.
The big manipulation technique is divide and conquer. That's what most people fail to see. We are being tricked into falling into opposing sides. Again and again.
One way of rising above all that mess is to step out of one's own manipulation schemes. I have caught myself being manipulative, and been thinking: "Holy smoke, I am myself being manipulative." We have been programmed that way. Much of our mental patterns operate with manipulative strategies and tactics.
The power elite use a two-tier manipulation scheme. In the first tier the masses are tricked into being manipulative themselves, and in the second tier the masses are busy manipulating each other and fail to recognize that they themselves are being manipulated from above.
