Oh the Tangled Webs We Weave

Hitler and Trump ... why people are influenced by these beings

INTRODUCTIONS

Erik Jan Hanussen, (2 June 1889 – 25 March 1933), was an Austrian Jewish publicist, charlatan and clairvoyant performer. Acclaimed in his lifetime as a hypnotist, mentalist, occultist and astrologer, Hanussen was active in Weimar Republic Germany and also at the beginning of Nazi Germany. He is said to have had meetings with Hitler including an encounter shortly before the election of November 1932, during which Hanussen taught Hitler his crowd control techniques of using gestures and dramatic pauses. Basically it was Hanussen who fine tuned Adolf Hitler’s skills in performance and the achievement of dramatic effect. Although Hanussen claimed to be a Danish aristocrat, he was in fact a Moravian Jew, born as Hermann (Herschel Chaim) Steinschneide.

Hanussen was a clever individual who taught Hitler a great deal concerning the importance of staging meetings to obtain the greatest dramatic effect."Predicting the Reichstag fire, a decisive event that allowed recently appointed Chancellor of Germany Adolf Hitler to seize absolute power in 1933, was Hanussen's most famous feat of clairvoyance. It also was possibly a miscalculated use of inside information that led to his death shortly thereafter.

Hanussen was assassinated on 25 March 1933, probably by a group of SA men, and was hastily buried in a field on the outskirts of Berlin, near Stahnsdorf. He was potential competition to Hermann Göring and Joseph Goebbels for the attention of their Führer, which may also have led to his murder. Hanussen's body was discovered over a month later. There are unsubstantiated claims that he may have been involved in the Reichstag fire, hypnotizing and directing Marinus van der Lubbe, the convicted arsonist, to commit the act.[14][1]power

Alois Maria Ott was Hitler's Psychologist in 1924 at Landsburg Prison during the time Hitler was serving time for mounting a coup of the Bavarian government in what is know as the Munich Beerhall Putsch.

Hitler was at the time a right-wing activist and rabble-rouser arrested after mounting a coup against the Bavarian government, the so-called Munich Beerhall Putsch. Taken to the Landsburg Prison, he was described as “a lump of misery,” unshaven, miserable, distracted, and expecting to be shot for treason or deported to Austria.

During the interrogations that followed, Hitler demonstrated his usual histrionic behavior. He would either remain silent or break out into crying fits. His shouts and screams could be heard all over the building. He “howled like a madman,” raving about “liars and traitors,” went on a hunger strike, and became apathetic and increasingly weaker.

Moved to the hospital wing, he was visited by the prison psychologist Alois Maria Ott. A devout Catholic, Ott was a firm believer in the power of goodwill, having a non-judgemental, empathic approach to his patients.

His first impression of the future dictator was unprepossessing. Hitler was a “scowl-eyed stocky man,” a “middle-class man with mannered black hair combed into his forehead and the well-known trimmed beard fly,” “a wide, ordinary mouth and a broadly protruding, somewhat indented nose.”Ott made his assessment of the prisoner: a hysteric and pathological psychopath. This is unique: the only psychiatric diagnosis of Hitler by anyone who examined him. Ott concluded that his patient had a “penchant for magical-mysterious thinking,” an opinion that is difficult to disagree with. Hitler was filled with “vanity and brutal dogmatism.” His hatred for “those who think differently” could not be attenuated: “I could feel his demonic obsession with an ideology that unleashed the psychopath in him,” (Kaplan, Alois Maria Ott: I was Hitler’s Psychologist, 2020.)

Marinus van der Lubbe (13 January 1909 – 10 January 1934) was a Dutch communist who was tried, convicted, and executed by guillotine by the government of Nazi Germany for setting fire to the Reischstag Building—the national parliament of Germany—on 27 February 1933. The current belief is that this was a False Flag event constructed by the Nazi’s. And, it is conjectured that Hanussen hypnotized van Der Lubbe influencing him to start the fire. Hanussen loudly ‘predicted’ the Reichstag fire and shortly after the fire he was murdered.

After the war van Der Lubbe’s body was exhumed to test for drugs. The reason? It was noted at his trial that he was always groggy. No drugs were found. In 2007 van Der Lubbe was pardoned of his crimes posthumously.

Dr. Walter C. Langer (1899-1981), a psychoanalyst and Semantic Scholar, prepared a psychological profile of Hitler for the United States' Office of Strategic Services (OSS) in 1943. The profile included a reference to Hanussen: "...during the early 1920s Hitler took regular lessons in speaking and mass psychology.”

Milton Hyland Erickson (5 December 1901 – 25 March 1980) was an American psychiatrist specializing in medical hypnosis. He is noted for his approach to the unconscious mind as creative and solution-generating. Dr. Erickson utilized confusing and non-sensical stories and diatribes as an induction method for his many clients (Hypnotic Confusion). The word-salad actually was peppered with key words intended to influence the mind of the patient at an unconscious level.

Hypnotherapists will lie or exaggerate to achieve the aims of their clients. This is ethical if the aim is to help a person give up an addiction or achieve a sense of well-being. (Hitler and Trump recognize that the truth is less important than emotions if they want to convince someone.)

The book, Comply with Me, by Lisa Morgan (2020) solves the puzzle of how Donald Trump gains and keeps loyal support, a conundrum that has stumped professional commentators as well as all those who don't feel compelled to vote for him. It reveals the motive behind his weird handshakes, why he speaks in such a strange way and even what drives him to keep the area around his eyes so pale. Whether he was trained or is a natural, Trump uses hypnosis techniques to get his message deep into people's minds - and he is not the only professional persuader using such tricks either.

Trump's aim is to achieve unthinking compliance and he does that by using hypnotic confusion techniques which enable him to embed suggestions into his subjects' unconscious minds. He achieves this with individuals as well as with the crowds he addresses. A central part of hypnosis practice is artful suggestion. Donald Trump is a master of the craft. He can imply what he wants to happen without needing to make his commands clear.

As a child, like all of us, Trump absorbed suggestions from his grandfather and parents. The impact of repeatedly being told when young that he was a 'king' and a 'killer' is evident in his adult behaviour. Positive Thinking is a keystone of Trump's self-regard, learning it from the leading exponent, Norman Vincent Peale. who told him he would be 'America's greatest builder'. He also learnt hypnosis, probably when it was fashionable as NLP and he was keen to clinch real estate deals. are often afraid of hypnosis, but they must not remain ignorant of the power of hypnosis any longer. It's a natural part of being human; we all go into a trance regularly (alpha or theta state), when watching TV or doing repetitive tasks. Used well, hypnosis is a force for good. It is also a powerful tool to gain control over others.

Some politicians, including those on the far-right, are using hypnosis to sway public opinion. If an argument is going against them, they will use misdirection and exaggeration to divert attention from opposing views. Trump and others who imitate him are experts at using hypnotic confusion to cloud the truth.

I’ve stitched together these over-lapping people and histories in an effort to have you at least CONSIDER the possibility that we are being manipulated. I’m hoping this brief article will encourage the people of this United States to remain awake and aware of the subtle and not-so-subtle techniques utilized by all politicians, mega-church pastors and CEO’s as they attempt to control our lives. Hypnosis and NLP have been used since the beginning of time by leaders who only wish to control their citizens. I recommend you read the in-depth reports and books mentioned here. It is an eye opener.

Such manipulative techniques led to WW2 and all its horrors. Our current ‘leaders’ are taking us down paths of great danger. And too many Americans are asleep. Wake up. Please. We must act mindfully now not as automatons.
