MSM PROPAGANDA- Psychological Warfare and Psychological Operations-
WATCHING THE MSM PROPAGANDA RESULTS IN BRAINWASHING, MIND CONTROL AND MENTAL ILLNESS The American taxpayer needs to start a Class Action Civil Lawsuit against the entire MSM propaganda systems
As Psychologists it is our profession, work and responsibility to treat mental illnesses, prevent further mental illnesses and harm and educate on healthy ways for people live, work and play. In my 35 years of practice and especially in the last 10 years I have seen the MSM propaganda do more mental damage to people including suicide than I ever want to remember. I have seen hundred’s of people in my offices coming in for anxiety, depression, and substance abuse directly from following the deceptive information they watch on their “trusted” news channels.
Calling the MSM “Fake News” is like calling a 10 car crash collusion that kills 15 people a “fender bender.” The American people have been more than just “betrayed” by the MSM, they have been lied to, deceived, distorted and mentally damage by psychological warfare. From 9/11, to the 2008 housing market crash, to deception on Cryptocurrency to Covid19, the “Crime of the Century”corrupt presidential election of 2020 and now the Russia/Ukraine debacle and everything in-between the MSM has played a front and center role in the distortion of the human psyche.
Now with Truth Social able to relay real information and TRUTH and a lot more declassified information to come, the masses will truly become “woke.”
When they do the largest class action lawsuit in the history of the world needs to be laid on the doorstep of the world MSM. Nick Sandmann and soon to be Kyle Rittenhouse will have led then way to what is the culpability of damage not only directly inflicted upon these two young Americans but what has been directly inflicted on the citizens of the USA as a whole. The American taxpayer needs to start a Class Action Civil Lawsuit against the entire MSM propaganda systems and the entire entertainment industry.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:
A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF HOW PROPAGANDA WORKS ON THE HUMAN PSYCHE
Americans and people of the world have been slaughtered by propaganda for at least a century. Propaganda’s history is lengthy and worthy of 10 large volumes, more than I have time to write, so here is a concise clinical breakdown. Edward Bernay was Sigmund’s Freud’s nephew by his wife (maiden name Martha Bernay) came to America early in the 20th century armed with full knowledge of powerful psychoanalysis and applied it to advertisement to incredible success and alas, the fuse was lit. This is covered brilliantly in Dan Curtis’s documentary “Century of the Self.” One hundred years later we are still using the same mechanics to sell everything from drugs you don’t need to food you don’t need to eat to things you “think” you have to have. The same science slowly seeped into every other facet of flourishing American life of the 20th century and of course into politics and news media.
Today “Propaganda” and “Fake News” is actually a massive Psychological Operation and Psychological Warfare aimed at Brainwashing and Mind-Control.
So how does propaganda work? It is incredibly complex science that has had a century of critical work done on it to turn it into the foul nefarious evil sin that it has become today. First, mechanistically, propaganda lowers the individuals analytically defensive mental functioning. Literally it uses various techniques to sway emotions such as fear, excitement, self esteem, ego many other defenses and so on. Then it delivers the “message” which is mixed sometimes in real truth and with untruths, deceptions, or promoting desires for wish fulfillment, gain or pleasure, or the opposite, avoidance of pain or loss. This powerfully renders the person emotionally driven to want or accept the information that is given.
As a construct Propaganda is an intricate composite comprised of many elements aimed a domination of the psyche. Propaganda is both verbal and non-verbal. It is conscious, subconscious and unconscious. It can simply be visual or auditory or a combination of both. It can be symbolic, numeric, physical, cognitive, feeling based, emotional. It is ALWAYS Projective. Propaganda then uses dozens of delivery mechanisms, either “offensive” or “defensive,” approaches to “download” and sway the message into the person, group or target.
When the tactics used by Propagandists fall into “Offensive” techniques the objective is “Offensive or Attack.,” and gain “Brainwashing,” of the individual, group, target or masses. When the Propagandists uses “Defensive or Evade” techniques the objective is “Mind Control or Elimination.” These delivery approaches manipulate humans defensive functioning, actually reduce or go around it in order to brainwash and mind control. There are 100’s of delivery mechanisms that attack human sensate, intuitive and cognitive psyche.
In my articles when I “Quote” a term it is actually one of the hundreds and mechanics and techniques used to sway human emotions and thought. Just a few include “Gaslighting” “Ad Hominem” “Big Lie” “Appeal to Fear” “Appeal to Authority” “Beautiful People” “Bandwagon” “Cult of Personality” “Demonizing the Enemy” “Dictat” “Classical Conditioning” “Obfuscation” “Pensee Unique” “Red Herring” “Repetition” “Operant Conditioning” “Gish Gallop” “Cherry Picking” “Common Man’ “Cognitive Dissonance” “Cult of Personality” “Demonizing the Enemy” “Divide and Rule” “Euphemism” “Dysphemism” “Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt” aka “FUD” “Firehose of Falsehoods” “Half Truths” “Latitudes of Acceptance,” and on and on and on. These are used alone or in creative combination. Here are three examples.
Currently the “aggression” or war that Vlad Putin is inflicting on the people of the Ukraine is being labelled a “Crime Against Humanity” but the MSM propaganda is both defensively and offensively “reporting on it. First they are using a a multitude of offensive tactics including showing “Crises actors” covered in blood as the current victims of Putin’s aggression and taking photos of bombings, fires and war torn cities from as far back as Syria and desert storm and playing them off as what is happening today. Since people have short or no memories at all thanks to the digital age they buy into this form of brain washing. The other tactic is defensive which results in Mind Control. The MSM Propagandists are not reporting the real truth that Ukraine is a despot of corruption, money laundering, bioweapons, human trafficking, drugs and pedophilia, all of which it is believed Putin is there uncovering and stopping and hopefully exposing. The MSM propaganda won’t go near that truth and this is a defensive tactic that leads to mind control of the narrative they choose to push.
When Kayleigh McEneany endured that last 3 months of the Trump Administration in front of the garbage that call themselves “journalists” if you remember when she walked from the podium the press stood up hurled and screamed questions at her like petulant, insolent children that were as illogical as they were stupid and then hurled illogical, sometimes obscene tragic “answers” to the ridiculous questions they had asked. This is known as a “Gish Gallop” which is usually used in one on one debates to throw the opponent off their train of logical thought. The science and technique of propaganda has evolved and this was a new methodology used to make the viewer believe McEneany was incompetent, running from questions and in general avoiding. Gish Gallop is only one of the combined techniques used against McEneany in that instance.
I could give literally 1000’s examples but here is one more I recently deconstructed and analyzed for a law firm including some members of the Armed Forces. Three former “presidents” did a “infomercial” on how all Americans need to do their part to stop the spread of Covid19 and get the jab. The “Propamericial” as I like to call it used “Appeal to Authority” “Beautiful or Famous People” “Bandwagon” “Virtue Words” “Thought Terminating Cliche’” “Unstated Assumption” “Common Man” “Pensee Unique” and about a dozen others. I will give you one other clue to the power of this “Propamercial” had on a visual, unconscious and symbolic level. It was filmed in “Black and White.” Pretty amazing since it came from 3 “presidents” whom many Americans have called and see as nothing more than a war criminal, a rapist/pedophile, and a communist pretending to be an American.
