Filmmaker Adam Curtis released a six-hour documentary titled "Can't Get You Out of My Mind," which explores global power systems and the rise of Mao Zedong. The prevalence of "phony" systems is cited as a primary driver for millennial interest in Bitcoin.

A discussion on the Sam Harris podcast regarding the "Climategate" email scandal is criticized as an attempt to rewrite history. Harris suggested that Russia may have been the source of the hack, while the hosts argue that the content of the emails—which suggested data manipulation—was proven true despite subsequent investigations. The segment frames this as a broader trend of media figures dismissing past scandals as foreign propaganda.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/727-win-by-losing/chapter/climate-science-as-a-mind-control-experiment.md

The debate over climate change is characterized as a government-led experiment in mind control, utilizing psychological tricks and the "97% consensus" meme to influence public opinion. Critics argue that climate science fails the scientific method because it relies on non-repeatable computer models rather than empirical observation. The discussion references the "Climategate" email scandal as evidence of a coordinated effort to manipulate data behind the scenes.

ABC News, led by Diane Sawyer, reports that 2012 was the hottest year on record in the U.S., using "apocalyptic" imagery from Australian wildfires. The hosts deconstruct the report's alarmist language and contrast it with leaked emails from the Climategate scandal, which they claim show scientists conspiring to hide data and silence dissenting views.

The *Huffington Post* reports that U.S. scientists have been exonerated of wrongdoing in the "Climategate" controversy. The hosts remain skeptical, arguing that the investigation was a formality to protect the "phony baloney" carbon credit scheme. They mention Senator James Inhofe's role in requesting the probe into the Climate Research Unit emails.

IPCC Chairman Rajendra Pachauri has issued a memo to scientists working on the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) advising them to maintain a distance from the media. Following the "Climategate" email scandal, the organization is emphasizing extreme rigor and centralized communication through co-chairs. Critics argue this lack of transparency is inappropriate for a scientific body tasked with informing global climate policy and carbon taxation.

A 160-page PDF report investigating the "Climategate" scandal has officially cleared scientists at the Climate Research Unit (CRU) of all dishonesty. The analysis argues that the leaked emails were taken out of context and are open to interpretation. The findings are dismissed by the speakers as a "bullcrap" attempt to move past the controversy and re-establish the narrative of man-made climate change.

Two clips from the television series Law and Order depict characters debating the validity of human-caused climate change and the ethics of cap and trade. One segment explicitly references "stolen emails" and scientists "cooking their numbers," which mirrors the real-world Climategate controversy. The hosts suggest producer Dick Wolf may be using the show to turn actual news events into fiction to manage public perception.
