**THE DATA**

Psychotic episodes were **34% greater** among individuals who reported greater digital media use.

Higher computer use is associated with **a 28.8% increase** in psychotic episodes.

In his study in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, First Author Vincent Paquin called it a “_ **modest association** _”.

Video gaming is associated with **an 11.8% increase** in psychotic episodes.

Higher television viewing is associated with **a 10.4% increase** in psychotic episodes.

In his study in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, First Author Vincent Paquin said that the huge increases in psychosis had occurred because of "shared risk _ **factors"** _.

Where the general “shared risk _ **factors** _” does not identify what those risk factors actually are.

That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “stonewalling”.

I have exposed the duplicity of JAMA and Vincent Paquin by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.

On September 10, 2020, [rageinsidethemachine.com](http://rageinsidethemachine.com) questioned “_ **Are** _ Smartphones Causing Psychosis _ **?** _”

On August 30, 2023, mcgill.ca questioned “_ **Is** _ digital media use a risk factor for psychosis in young adults _ **?** _”

When, in fact, the article featured a study proving that psychotic experiences were 34% greater among individuals who reported greater digital media use.

I have exposed the duplicity of mcgill.ca and author Claire Loewen by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.

In April 2024, Oxford University’s Dr. Simona Skripkauskaite said that high digital technology use in adolescence was _ **“an early marker, rather than a cause”** _ of later psychosis, and that the association between increased technology use and psychosis was the result of "_ **pre-existing personal circumstances** _.

**AUGUST 2023**

On August 30, 2023, mcgill.ca questioned “_ **Is** _ digital media use a risk factor for psychosis in young adults _ **?** _”

When, in fact, the article featured a study proving that psychotic experiences were 34% greater among individuals who reported greater digital media use.

Author Claire Loewen went on to say “A recent McGill University study\* of 425 Quebecers between the ages of 18 and 25 has found that young adults who have more frequent psychotic experiences also tend to spend more time using digital media.”

Using a time-honored propaganda technique, Claire “buried” the study in a separate link, indicted by the asterisk above.

That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.

The study says “On average, individuals who reported greater digital media use also reported higher levels of psychotic experiences (r = 0.34, 95% CI 0.15, 0.53).”

Psychotic experiences were 34% greater among individuals who reported greater digital media use.

Here’s Claire Loewen’s picture, in a Satanic purple and green shirt, and where the image is constructed to focus attention on her left eye:

(Claire Loewen, who headlined an article documenting that psychotic experiences were 34% greater among individuals who reported greater digital media use with the question “_ **Is** _ digital media use a risk factor for psychosis in young adults\*\*\*?\*\*\*”)

The image is constructed to focus attention on her left eye because, to generational Satanist Freemasons like McGill University’s Claire Loewen, the left eye is the “eye of Will” or the “eye of Horus”.

But don’t take my word for it:

‘The right eye is the Eye of Ra and **the left is the Eye of Horus** ’.”

-

I have included her picture so that you could get a better idea of what a generational Satanist Freemason in a position of marginal influence looks like.

She figured that the rubes would never notice the coded visual imagery.

It’s not like these people aren’t right up front about what they’re doing, and what they’re into.

We’ve just been conditioned, over literally Millennia, not to “notice” it.

Generational Satanists are all related to one another through the maternal bloodline. They comprise between twenty and thirty percent of the populace, and are hiding in plain sight in every city, town and village on Earth.

It’s how the few have controlled the many all the way back to Babylon, and before.

But they say that the hardest part of solving a problem is recognizing that you have one.

Don Croft used to say “Parasites fear exposure above all else”.

How long do you think that these people have left in power, now?

Please consider doing what you can to help speed the transition.

**APRIL 2024**

On April 10, 2024, [dailymail.co.uk](http://dailymail.co.uk) said “Children addicted to tech _ **including** _ smartphones are _ **more** _ at risk of psychosis, study _ **suggests** _.”

Where author Chris Pollard said “_ **more** _ at risk of psychosis” because it is general.

As a propagandist, Chris knows that 70% of readers only read the headlines, and that his technique goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the speed and scope of the decrease increase in technology-driven psychosis which he is attempting to obfuscate.

That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “compartmentalization”.

Chris walked “children addicted to smartphones” back to “addicted to tech _ **including** _ smartphones”, to do what little he could to hedge.

He tacked the snide “study suggests” on the end of the headline to give the subconscious of the Coincidence theorist reader the green light to say “oh, but that was just a _suggestion_”, or, "oh, but they can make those studies suggest _anything_!

As a propagandist, the Daily Mail’s Chris Pollard knows that many or most readers will grasp virtually any straw, no matter how thin, to remain off the hook of personal responsibility.

The article goes on to say “Children addicted to smartphones, iPads and video games are _ **more** _ likely to suffer psychotic episodes later in life, _ **a** _ study has _ **indicated** _.”

Anytime an introductory line mirrors the headline, it is a violent command to the subconscious of the Coincidence theorist reader to stop reading immediately.

Chris said “_ **more** _ likely” because it is general.

As a propagandist, Chris knows that his hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the speed and scope of the decrease increase in technology-driven psychosis which he is attempting to obfuscate.

He said “_ **a** _ study” to prompt “oh, but that was just one study!”

He said “indicated” to prompt “oh, but that was just an _indication!_”

The article goes on to say "The study looked at the media habits and psychotic experiences of 2,120 Canadians born in 1997 and 1998. It found that those who drastically reduced their computer use still had more frequent psychotic experiences in adulthood, even after other personal experiences were considered.

It also said internet use is _ **more strongly** _ associated with depression than video gaming or television viewing."

The first paragraph deviously and falsely implies that computer use was not the driver of psychotic experiences in adulthood.

The Daily Mail’s Chris Pollard said “more strongly” because it is general.

As a propagandist, Chris knows that his hedging generality goes a long way toward “compartmentalizing” awareness of the speed and scope of the greater increase in internet-driven psychosis which he is attempting to obfuscate.

The article goes on to say "Dr Simona Skripkauskaite, of Oxford University, said: ‘High digital technology use in adolescence can be an early marker, rather than a cause, of later mental health problems.’

He added _ **experts** _ are ‘_ **moving away** _’ from _ **seeing** _ digital technology as _ **a** _ ‘root cause of all _ **contemporary** _ troubles’: ‘_ **Pre-existing personal circumstances** _ often underlie both elevated media use and mental health difficulties.’"

**APRIL 2024**

On April 10, 2024, JAMA Psychiatry published “_ **Trajectories** _ of Adolescent Media Use and Their _ **Associations** _ With Psychotic _ **Experiences** _”.

Where first author Vincent Paquin used the Millennial “psychotic _ **experiences** _”, to walk technology-driven psychotics back a step from actually experiencing “psychotic episodes”.

The study goes on to say:

Results A total of 1226 participants were included in the analyses (713 [58.2%] female, 513 [41.8%] male). For each media type, latent class mixed modeling identified 3 group-based trajectories, with subgroups following trajectories of higher use: television viewing, 128 (10.4%); video gaming, 145 (11.8%); computer use, 353 (28.8%); and reading, 140 (11.4%). Relative to lower video gaming, higher video gaming was preceded by higher levels of mental health and interpersonal problems at age 12 years. Adjusting for these risk factors mitigated the association between higher video gaming and PEs at age 23 years. The curved trajectory of computer use (189 [15.4%] participants), characterized by increasing levels of use until age 15 years followed by a decrease, was associated with higher PEs (estimated difference, +5.3%; 95% CI, +1.5% to +9.3%) relative to lower use (684 [55.8%] participants). This association remained statistically significant after covariable adjustment.

Conclusions and Relevance This study found that longitudinal trajectories of media use during adolescence _ **were modestly associated** _ with PEs at age 23 years, likely reflecting _ **the influence of shared risk factors** _. Understanding the environmental determinants and psychosocial functions of media use during adolescence may help better integrate digital technologies in the prevention and management of PEs."

Higher computer use is associated with **a 28.8% increase** in psychotic episodes.

In the journal JAMA Psychiatry, First Author Vincent Paquin called it a “_ **modest association** _”.

Video gaming is associated with **an 11.8% increase** in psychotic episodes.

Higher television viewing is associated with **a 10.4% increase** in psychotic episodes.

In the journal JAMA Psychiatry, First Author Vincent Paquin said that the increases in psychosis had occurred because of “shared risk factors”.

Where the general “shared risk factors” does not identify what those risk factors actually are.

That’s an example of the propaganda technique known as “stonewalling”.

I have exposed the duplicity of JAMA and Vincent Paquin by using what was known in the old days as “fact checking”.
