David Icke

Overview

Four books: And the Truth Shall Set You Free, The Biggest Secret, Everything You Need to Know, Perceptions of a Renegade Mind, 1995–2021.

David Icke claims that a non-human force has controlled the Earth for thousands of years through a small human network, and that humanity's own fear, ignorance and acquiescence keep that control in place. Each book names the force differently, and the four names are kept apart here.

How it connects

The four books tell one history through four different apexes, and the chains keep each book's version. The later books add four new lineages below (the Archontic, Sabbatian-Frankist, Rockefeller medicine and transhumanist chains) and extend several older ones.

Read how it all connects →
Methods of control

The four books describe one toolkit, and the later books add the methods of the digital and "Covid" era (the last dozen methods below). The two earlier books already describe the same toolkit, but place it under different controllers.

Read the methods →
Goals and endgame

All four books name the same endgame, a global fascist state, first called the New World Order and in the 2021 book the Great Reset, and give it almost the same components. They differ on who ultimately wants it and on the timetable.
