Disinformation Tactics: The Methods Used To Keep You In The Dark
Tags: COVER-UP/DECEPTIONS/PROPAGANDA
There was a time, not too long ago (relatively speaking), that governments and the groups of elites that controlled them did not find it necessary to conscript themselves into wars of disinformation. Propaganda was relatively straightforward.
The lies were much simpler. The control of information flow was easily directed. In fact, during the early Middle-Ages in most European countries commoners were not even allowed to own a Bible, nor was the Bible allowed to be interpreted from Latin to another language, let alone any other tome that might breed "dangerous ideas". This was due in large part to the established feudal system and its hierarchy of royals and clergy.
