| Planners of deep events, who establish deep state milieux and direct deep state operations. |
Not to be confused with deep state operatives, deep state actors or deep state functionaries, who may appear to have superior positions in the public power structure, but who all operate lower in the real decision making hierarchy.
Deep politicians (a.k.a. Éminences grises) are the hidden decision-makers whose machinations generally evade scrutiny by the commercially-controlled media. Although the distinction between the two is somewhat fluid, deep politicians treat politicians as puppet masters treat puppets. The contention of this website is that many "leaders" focused on by commercially-controlled media are in fact just puppet leaders. As citizens are regulated by the decisions arrived at by politicians, so politicians themselves are regulated by deep politicians, often choosing from the easily available options given to them.
Official narrative
Officially, there is no deep state, no deep politics and therefore no deep politicians. Most Western nations are democracies, which reflect the will of the people - so malign influences are limited to the occasional "bad apple" - who can never gain a foothold over, or subvert, such well-established power structures.
The shadowy world of organised crime is full of bad guys, the polar opposite of the good guys who populate legitimate governments of nation states. Self evidently, these two sides would not work together.
Etymology
Google Trends features a spike in March 2005, and a gradual interest in the phrase since about 2012. User:Robin introduced this phrase on Wikispooks in 2014, by extension from "deep politics". John Taylor Gatto used to refer to them as "political architects".[1] The phrase "man behind the man" describes a more general but related idea.[2]
Plausible deniability
Deep politicians often work through other people, deep state functionaries, in order to shield themselves from public view and/or as cut-outs to establish plausible deniability of their actions.
Exposure
Most citizens understand that the above official narrative is an idealised state of affairs only and that large scale corruption does occur in national governments. They are informed by the increasing frequency of deep events in public sight (most notably the 1996 Susurluk scandal). Many are learning about their methods such as deep state milieux and false flag attacks. However, as of 2016, most can probably still not imagine the extent of the culture of criminality at the high levels of the state.
Cultural depictions
The smoke filled room of white male deciders is something of a cliche, although not necessarily an inaccurate one.[3]
