How to Brainwash a Nation

Lets start with the leader of modern liberal minded propaganda: Edward Bernays.

In 2002, Adam Curtis and the BBC released a four-part series called "The Century of the Self."

The series tracks how American elites have aggressively used the modern behavioral sciences to persuade, coerce and manipulate the American public into accepting the corporate-government world's version of events as their own.

This seven-minute video which I call "The Assassin of Democracy" focuses on one of the most skillful and amoral expert of all the experts in mass manipulation, Edward Bernays. Bernays got his first taste of the power of propaganda during World War I. He advised US presidents from Woodrow Wilson to Einsehower and served numerous corporations and business associations. One of his biggest fans was Hitler's propaganda chief, Joseph Goebbels, a fact about which Bernays bragged proudly.

In this clip, we see a pattern that Bernays used over and over again: turn a harmless entity into a fearsome enemy through lies and manufactured news items. Then use the "threat" to justify attack. The subject of this video is Bernays campaign against the democratically elected government of Guatemala in 1953, but you'll have no trouble seeing that this very same method is being used today.

Now this is the most interesting things I have seen in a while.

While I reserve judgement, I will say right from the start if not the death, the rest of the event was a western MSM spin psyop. One of the conspirators was in the west days later spouting on to the press as if he had concluded an investigation into the affair, and how a man on a motorbike (the shooter) was trumpeted all over the MSM that Iran as a murdering government agent even though this event did not take place near any demonstration or police forces.

I actually really like Seth's shows.

Perhaps it is 'OK' as an over the top revelation of the method or sarcasm, perhaps it matters not because many don't see it this way, or perhaps it makes no difference what I think, and the pertinent parts of my being are being brainwashed into nihilistic moldability just the same.
