RE: The Bewildered Herd - Mass Shootings and Propaganda

in #propaganda7 years ago (edited)

Great work as always @v4vapid I see propaganda creeping into every facet of our lives. That said, when I see the insidious subliminal mind viruses of thought control begin to spread through our populations like a pandemic I realise just how nuanced and indeed cutting-edge propaganda has become. Each event seems to feed the next, and they use every opportunity to splinter further and further divisions. A popular one in recent years seems to be the attempt to open chasms of division between the generations and this shooting has (I believe) been used to further capitalise upon this process.

They have spent the last few years carefully crafting a perception in the minds of the youth that everyone over a certain age (apart from a few key voices) is a bumbling idiot and that the younger generations know best and it's their responsibilty to change the world. Alas the denigration of age deliberately sidesteps the associated wisdom of elders. This is a wisdom that's still revered throughout many cultures and socities and I feel our disconnection from it to be entirely deliberate. Unfortunately many of these university educated young people have also been programmed with kneejerk emotional responses and indeed idealism is far easier controlled than fact. The problem is as utopian as many of these idealistic ideas sound they're also beginning to read like a NWO ticklist.

In relation to gun violence (not speciically this shooting as I haven't had time to fully look into it yet) who doesn't want a world with no violence? Equallyn perhaps some people would do well to look into the architects of this brave new utopia/dystopia .. because one things for sure their reasons will not align with those practicing prayer vigils. There are no easy answers my friend and as time moves on those that are able to see what is happening will become increasingly villified. As with all our societal splinters, the attempt to box the truth seeker in (and equally hold them within the let/right paradigm) and attach negative labels to them has well and truly begun .. will they stick? I guess we shall have to wait and see.

Excellent points here! You're touching upon something very important in these comments, the notion that propaganda is reaching new levels of sophistication, subliminal mind viruses/nuanced/cutting-edge are apt descriptions of what we are surrounded by today.

The advertisement industry and PR think tanks employ some of the greatest minds in psychology pushing the upper limits of mind manipulation.

I have no doubt that the social engineers are constantly on the look out for ways to divide truth seekers and the population as a whole. We're weak when we're boxed into our differentiating categories/labels.
