I am sure many here share the feeling with me that propaganda efforts have been massively ramped up in recent years and that more and more people are under control of manipulators who mainly work through mainstream media and social media. But I came to the conclusion that what is actually happening is that more people than ever before are waking up to propaganda tactics.
Society has always been mentally controlled by those in power. The times where evil people could get rid of an opponent by simply shouting 'she's a witch' and the mob would burn her alive are not that far in the past. But the numbers of this brainless mob are decreasing daily and once one has realized the lies and propaganda one's mind is free. So what seems to be manipulation getting intensified and more people being affected is actually us having more and more information about these cases. Which in the end means that these tactics work against less and less people.
Stay strong, keep your mind free, be resilient and patient when helping your friends and family escape the shackles of propaganda. Remember it is always darkest before the dawn. The global awakening is happening,
Nobody is walking up.
It's been tried since Soviet Russia and Nazi Germany. And if it worked for 300 straight years, what makes you think it will not work on the 500th?
And sure, there are upstanding civilians from each era which do realize something is wrong and shit will hit the fan, but they are so sparse that they will do no impact on the big picture.
I was born in the Soviet Union. Nobody bought the party bullshit, everyone privately laughed at them and stole as much as they could.
I meant before the Party took power and during the last ten years of Tsar rule.
