Propaganda by Edward Bernays Chapter 11: The Mechanics of Propaganda

 "The newspaper, of course, remains always the primary medium for the transmission of opinions and ideas-in other words, for propaganda." Edward Bernays 


Remember this book was written in 1924. When you look at today's most popular forum for 'opinions and ideas' we have to look at the internet. Newspapers, radios, and televisions were used for years to share a story. 


Now we have endless news shows that have zero actual news and more opinions than anything. Morning Joe for example. They are the essential hub for propaganda brainwashing from six am to nine am. The brainless dribble coming out of that bunch of arrogant loons can make you wonder how they even stay on the airwaves. The flip side was RT America. They had talk shows and actual news shows. They had talk shows as well. Something for everyone. I enjoyed The World According to Jesse with Jesse Ventura and Redacted Tonight with Lee Camp. He was able to write his material and choose staff that he'd work well with. No other networks would or could be so bold. Lee didn't hold back or pull punches. 


We are currently seeing propaganda gone postal. The Anti-Russian propaganda hysteria has caused hypocrisies to surface. Almost two weeks ago Russian Blue and Siberian Forest cats were barred from competing in an international show. This month we saw the Youtube demonetization of Russia-based Content Creators. This is stupid. If it were just YouTube doing this based on propaganda, that would be one thing. However, Russia was cut off from Swift, the international banking cartel. The world's most used credit cards have moved away from Russia. These knee-jerk judgment calls were made based on propaganda and nothing more.


Folks, this is the end of this book. I hope you will consider purchasing or renting this book. It's been very informative. The next book will be The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man by John Perkins. This gentleman was exactly that, An Economic Hit Man. He explains how sanctions actually work and why they are straight-up evil.

UN Legitimate and Two Illegitimate Speakers

This was a freakshow of a week…. I actually did a whole layout here and accidentally deleted it. OMG. I realize this week was crazy, but holy shit! This is what it did. So here’s a quick recap before I have a completely psychotic break.  Trump entered the UN building with the same level of disaster he entered the world with. The safety feature that will prevent someone carrying a ‘nasty surprise’ from entering the top level of the escalator. That still leaves the elevators. The teleprompter stopped working. That was it, there’s a conspiracy. He did what any brain-dead American would do: whine and bitch. His almost hour-long tirade ended by telling other nations they will go to hell. I guess there will be a family reunion.  Netanyahu went to speak, and it’s a good thing that there were influencers paid to be there; otherwise, why on earth would anybody subject themselves to Netanyahu’s incoherent nonsense after Trump is beyond me. Netenhahu finished last week by threatening Chi...

Who is Ahmed al-Sharaa?

  Ahmed was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Wait! What was that???? Born in Saudi Arabia…. How the hell did he get to be president of Syria? A country that he isn’t even a citizen of? That is as insane as Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov announcing he is going to be the president of America. Actually, I would welcome that. Since he is obviously smarter than any American Political puppet. At least we would be able to have our Christian values protected. There wouldn’t be an abortion clinic on every city block. And the sexualization of children would come to a dead stop. Veterans would be better cared for under Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. However, that will never happen, but I think you get how insane that is. I found that you have to be a natural-born citizen of Syria to be president of Syria.  Ahmed al-Sharaa was a member of Al Qaeda. You remember the pack of terrorists who attacked us on 9/11/. My question is, why is Al-Qaeda allowed to exist if they were involved in 9/11? ...

America: How Does She Change?

The last few days, I have seen numerous videos regarding the trafficking of humans getting worse than ever in this cesspool called America. This has got to stop. NOW! No more waiting.  September 5, 1985! The day when Johnny Gosch went missing. Nooren Gosch has done multiple interviews about what her family went through after Johnny Gosch went missing. Mrs. Gosch was told Johnny would come home after he calmed down. They let her know he was ‘a runaway”. Sound familiar? The FBI was of NO help. So, the idea that the FBI 'recovered’ children in Florida is a joke. How did they come in and find these children out of the blue? Seriously! Approximately 73 million children since 2023. Why aren't these numbers updated?  I just find it strange that Trump's attempts to cover up his involvement with Epstein AND Maxwell, BPFs to the super elite, was a disaster, now the FBI find over 60 children in Florida, home of Mar Lago, are instantly found. Then there were children rescued in Louisia...
