David Icke slams Spielberg's Disclosure Day as a 'psychological operation'

David Icke has released a video responding to Steven Spielberg’s latest film, Disclosure Day. The controversial figure shared his reaction on 10 June 2026, calling the movie a psychological operation designed to mislead audiences. In the film, government whistleblowers reveal hidden alien contact and advanced technology. Mainstream critics have largely praised the narrative and its bold claims.

Icke, however, argues that Disclosure Day inverts reality. He claims the film portrays non-human entities as empathetic while ignoring his long-standing theory that such beings lack empathy entirely. According to him, this reversal serves as a core psyop technique, which he calls 'empathy inversion'.

He warns that the movie manipulates human emotions to reinforce control and division. Icke also believes it distracts viewers from what he describes as a simulation-based system of control. His conclusion is blunt: the film leaves people further from the truth, not closer. Icke’s video presents a stark contrast to the film’s positive reception. He insists the narrative conceals rather than reveals, using emotional manipulation to shape public perception. His critique centres on the idea that the movie’s portrayal of empathy is both false and dangerous.
