Review
The Vigilant Citizen is a controversial new book by a Canadian blogger. The book highlights the role of individual responsibility in security, and demonstrates how this legitimizes the injustices that persist in our society. This book has important implications for the fight against institutionalized racism in the justice system and politics. Rather than demonizing those who are in the minority, vigilant citizenry should be used as a platform to confront and change existing inequalities.
Analysis
This new book, Analysis of Vigilant Citizen, is a collection of the best articles I’ve written since 2008. They are all fully illustrated and easy to read, and each article includes a detailed symbolism analysis and interpretation. It’s the perfect read for anyone interested in understanding the psychology behind music and movies. In addition to the many examples, the e-book also contains useful resources and information on police brutality and the occult.

Analysis of hidden “symbolism”
This analysis is based on the observations of one anonymous blogger, The Vigilant Citizen. It decodes common pop tropes as part of an occult music industry plot. For example, Rihanna’s “Disturbia” lyrics are decoded as a “good-for-nothing idiotic person”, who should stop thinking and let herself be hypnotised by the music.
Symbolism in the song
Unlike other pop-punk songs, Vigilant Citizen does not have political or religious overtones. Instead, it is a reincarnation of off-piste 60s pop critics such as Reverend David A Noebel, who wrote Communism, Hypnotism, and the Beatles. These Leftwing thinkers regarded pop as a form of mind control. In contrast, Vigilant Citizen decodes Rihanna’s Disturbia lyrics as meaningless advice to “stop thinking” and “let yourself be hypnotised”.
Lady Gaga’s video for Bad Romance contains the densest symbolism of all. This video represents the music industry as a machine owned by a secretive elite. The masks on bidders’ faces are symbolic representations of the corporate power that controls pop culture. Symbolism in the song of vigilant citizen encompasses elements of occultism as well as modern decadence.
Suggestions for further analysis
The Vigilant Citizen is a book that addresses a wide variety of social issues. In an age when the state is increasingly focused on security, vigilant citizens are vital to the functioning of democracy. Informed citizens raise their voices to address problems faced by the common people. In addition to raising awareness about human rights, vigilant citizens are crucial to the successful functioning of a democracy. By protesting against policies that threaten the human well-being, vigilant citizens force governments to create and implement policies that promote human rights.
