Yep exactly, thousands years, all the system we know, banks, money, interests, debts, taxes, psychology, socials / medias and almost anything else, btw, the references to the ' dark force ', was present and existed widely with Egyptians and civilizations before, it changes name, but not description, and every messiah/prophet/seer or whatever said it around scriptures, religious books, and much more, it's a battle going on since eons and we will win ultimately, but still, it was said that we HAVE to suffer in order to wake up people from THEIR reality so that finally humanity can break free

And btw, the main weapon of our enemy, is not magic, weapons, or anything similar, simply knowledge and wisdom, they apply heave psychological studies since the begin, they modelled the human mind to fall willingly in their system, and this happens on multiple layer, just think, every time you dig in search for truth and you think you finally got the picture, you end up finding that the picture was just another small piece of a bigger picture, like the Russian dolls
