In A World Ruled By Propaganda

We just discussed this dynamic with regard to U.S. aggressions against Russia and China; the Overton window is being narrowed to a debate between which U.S. enemy should be the target of the most imperial aggressions, with voices who advocate detente with both countries finding no platform in mainstream politics or media.

This is what Noam Chomsky was talking about when he said “the smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum.”

People assume there must be truth in the mainstream worldview because so many others are invested in the mainstream worldview, when really the only reason that worldview is mainstream in the first place is because so much wealth and influence has gone into making it mainstream.

In reality the assumption that the truth exists anywhere in either of the two mainstream political viewpoints promoted by the managers of the western empire is an example of the bandwagon effect, which describes the cognitive bias in which humans tend to take on beliefs, behaviors, styles and attitudes solely because that’s what the people around them are doing.

This bias would have had evolutionary advantages early on in our development as a species. Back when our evolutionary ancestors were prey for prehistoric carnivores, it was a survival advantage to start running for your life if you saw other members of your tribe running, even if you personally didn’t see what they were running from.

As primates whose survival depended on social cohesion, being rejected by the tribe would mean almost certain death by predation or starvation, so it was necessary to conform in whatever ways prevented that rejection from happening.

But we don’t live in prehistoric times anymore. We live in a civilization with a highly complex information environment that is being continually manipulated away from truth and accuracy and toward the advantage of powerful people who rule over us. If you go along with the herd, you’ll be deceived.

The essential problem within the US, we have a controlled citizenship made up of only 2 primary herds on the political scale. And they're both being deceived and gaslighted into a confrontational division within a delusional reality. The information that is being suppressed to unite these herds is easily available if one only seeks it. The same deceptions have been in use for over a hundred years. In regards to the US wars. It's bewildering how most in the US, with the ability to use this vast information net work called the Internet that reaches around the world, imprisons themselves only within the controlled information environment that constantly deceives them time after time. We deserve a hell of a lot better! And those we've lost in the name of their delusional reality deserve to have justice in their names, finally! And those who took them from us within their deceptions deserve to be punished! The ruling class, politicians, and medias!

As I state in one of the pinned pages of the group, and occasionally in post, think of the term propaganda as another term for information. Propaganda is a term often used as a negative derogatory. It has been essentially weaponized to use against manufactured enemies. It's to purposely install a sense of which you can't trust information from that targeted enemy. As though they don't deserve an opinion. It's to suppress you from even wanting to observe the enemies side of the issue to compare to all available information and reaching your own conclusion. The fact that it's suppressed to the degree information is controlled today, alone, should make you want to seek it. That's what they fear! That you will actual learn that you're being deceived. How deep the deceptions are. What price we've been paying for their deceptions. They're soaked in the blood of our families. Off our hard labor.

I want to add to this post 2 recent segments from Rick Sanchez's show, Direct Impact. The first one correlates to the above article. Rick was once a MSCM host at CNN. He was fired for wanting to do a particular story that went against the grain of the controlled narrative of MSMs. The same story so many have ended up on RT. People who are not allowed in our MSMs because they expose the difference between good and bad propaganda. He use to do another nightly news show for RT before RT was sanctioned and all the shows went down. He was recently given another platform on RT for his own show. Direct Impact. This Dan Kovalik is someone who I have used articles and information in the past. It's quite a telling discussion.

Dumb Americans

The American author Mark Twain famously said: "God created war so Americans would learn geography." While Twain was known for his humor, this quip appears to hold some truth. Since the start of the Cold War, the US has been involved militarily in several foreign countries, often leading to long conflicts and thousands of deaths. Direct Impact's host Rick Sanchez delves into the US history of war and the public's view of these conflicts. Rick speaks with human rights lawyer and professor Dan Kovalik about the public's failure to question their country's participation in foreign conflicts. Dan paraphrases the same statement I often make on these pages in regards to camps. In other words, party lines. If you don't observe the other sides opinion, you can miss how your side is deceiving you.

Why aren't you skeptical of US conflicts? Is it due to an ignorance of history? Pop your bubble!

Zelensky’s schemes

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky and his regime had some gargantuan plans that even shocked their US counterparts, the Washington Post has revealed, based on classified documents it viewed. The Zelensky government wanted to occupy Russian territories in an attempt to gain the upper hand in negotiations with Moscow. Direct Impact’s Rick Sanchez takes a deep dive into this topic. Rick speaks to political analyst Dennis Small on Zelensky’s plans and what this means in Ukraine, going forward.

Just what is Ukraine? Who is Ukraine? How dangerous is Ukraine. Dangerous for whom? If you've been paying attention, the Ukraine war has effected basically every country with a rather negative result. Dennis pretty much paraphrases most of what I've been stating for some time. He even mentions the role of the city of London. In other words, the Little City of London. Which I have occasionally suggested in the past, all matters go through the Little City of London. Ukraine is the new toy store of the international elite. Now owned by London and the US.

Before the 10:30 mark--Dennis makes a statement that suggest my conjecture of the top power structure being in London, then afterwards leads towards how they are pulling us along, would indicate what I've been saying all along as being correct. This is against our Constitution! We, the US, are merely a tool to the international power structure. We're a mass incorporated society meant only to serve the benefits of what is now a capitalist power structure. Which is falling apart and being highly challenged in which the ultimate means to resurrect it is more war, even if it means going nuclear against manufactured enemies of Russia and China.
