The United States today bears almost no resemblance to what it was back when the founders first established it. The Constitution has essentially been nullified as the government illegally targets and surveils citizens as part of a society-wide assault on free speech and the First Amendment.
For at least the past 60 years since the time when Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous “I Have a Dream” speech during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on Aug. 28, 1963, America’s shadow government has been hard at work creating a prison-like society in which nothing ever really changes for the better, and everyone lives in constant and growing fear about what comes next.
As of late, the premier divide-and-conquer tactic seems to be stoking a race war between whites and non-whites, as well as a political war between the right and the left. The military industrial complex profits by playing both sides of the war while the uni-party calls all the shots from their cozy enclaves in Washington, D.C.
“[T]he oligarchy is still calling the shots in the seats of government power,” wrote John W. Whitehead in a guest post for The Burning Platform. “[A]nd the government is still weaponizing surveillance in order to muzzle anti-government sentiment, harass activists, and terrorize Americans into compliance.”

Since the 1950s, the U.S. government has been using COINTELPRO to domestically surveil and neutralize citizen targets across America
MLK Jr. is one of many prominent figures who has been targeted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under its COINTELPRO domestic intelligence program, which has been in operation since the 1950s.
In order to neutralize domestic political dissidents, the FBI targeted and intimidated not just MLK Jr. but also Malcolm X, the Black Panther Party, John Lennon, Billie Holiday, Emma Goldman, Aretha Franklin, Charlie Chaplin, Ernest Hemingway, Felix Frankfurter, and hundreds of others over the years.
It used to be that mostly famous people like these were COINTELPRO targets, but now anyone can find himself on the hitlist if the FBI decides that he is saying or thinking too much truth for the deepstate’s liking.
The world has come a long way technologically since the 1950s, too. Now, the FBI and other three-letter government agencies can spy on and surveil people through social media platforms like Facebook and X (formerly known as Twitter), which are two of the biggest honeypot platforms in operation.
Then there are all the surveillance cameras the government has slapped up on utility poles, traffic lights, buildings, and even people’s homes. Whitehead lists the following as other surveillance apparatuses utilized by the government deepstate to keep an all-seeing eye on the public:
“License plate readers. Ring doorbells. GPS devices. Dash cameras. Drones. Store security cameras. Geofencing and geotracking. FitBits. Alexa. Internet-connected devices. Geofencing dragnets. Fusion centers. Smart devices. Behavioral threat assessments. Terror watch lists. Facial recognition. Snitch tip lines. Biometric scanners. Pre-crime. DNA databases. Data mining. Precognitive technology. Contact tracing apps.”
On any given day, the average person in America is being spied on by not just one, two, or three different mechanisms, but more than 20. In nearly every possible way, Big Brother is watching people go about their lives and using the data collected to determine who is a threat.
“Weaponized surveillance is re-engineering a society structured around the aesthetic of fear,” Whitehead warns.
