A recent msn.com article originating from Business Insider was, I thought, such a wonderful example of domination by communication I am posting it here thinking it might make an interesting study in authoritarian abuse.
http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/i-really-dont-care-do-u-how-the-act-of-refusing-to-wear-a-mask-became-the-new-symbol-of-american-fear
The basic premise of the article, fear and frustration being felt by Americans, started off with a reference to William Shakespeare. The internationally recognized mitigator of high class behavior himself was used to weigh in on the subject with the opening line reference “to wear a mask or not to wear a mask”; which suggests to me the technocrats are feeling more than a little uppity; for pointy-headed social scientists to lead off with Shakespeare is a message in itself. To follow it up with multiple‘cognitive distortions’ indicates how deep and dark they believe they can go on Microsoft News or are willing to go on the darkened streets.
The controlled fallacy (cognitive distortion #12) being referred to reads as “the coronavirus pandemic continues to sweep through the nation”. While the authors provided no credible substantiation of their claim the explanation from the CDC report stated otherwise three months ago. Two weeks ago WBALTV reported major discrepancies while cavalierly explaining them as a difference in accounting. If you still think counting the dead is pretty cut and dried, LOL, scroll down that wbaltv page to the map and read the bold, small print below it.
The clarifications did not end at Johns Hopkins. Word on the latest CDC update from my respected source:
The latest CDC weekly mortality update provided new Covid19 mortality information that single-handedly removes any justification for continuing home quarantining, mask edicts, social distancing, and all the other demeaning and useless orders that are ruining our country and our humanity… All under the pretense that we can’t get back to normal until we are all “vaccinated.” No thanks to any of it as it is all based on Lies, not objective science or proven clinical evidence.
This country was shut down nearly 7 months ago on the word of CDC/WHO, Fauci, Gates and their minions that 2.2 million would die from this “new virus” from Wuhan –Now, 7 months later, Fauci et.al., are wrong … again. Only 164,000 deaths attributed to SARS/Covid19 deaths with no clinical proof needed—94% of these deaths were mainly elderly people with 2-3 serious co-morbidities. So, less than 10,000 covid19 deaths (6%) with no co-morbidities. Wondering how many of these people died because they were quickly put on a ventilator, aka exterminator.
IN light of this new information, Operation Warp Speed must be halted, and a full investigation take place. If it is not stopped, everyone will know this was never about a pandemic but the very real destruction of our country as a free and sovereign nation. There is a cure for SARS/covid19 pneumonia, but why is it still being forbidden in many states? It’s because if there is a known cure, “vaccines” cannot be forced on us.
There is an accompanying dark conspiracy afoot, dear reader; nay, it abounds barely hidden.
Evil is hiding within an evil hoax and like a tree frog croaking atop an amanita mushroom believing its placement is its authority, MSN repeats the Business Insider banal claims that wearing a mask has become a partisan issue with Democrats complying and Republicans resisting; and then this bit of propganda…
A psychiatrist told Business Insider that the mask has become a symbol of the fear and frustrations Americans are feeling, but perhaps it’s also a window into the depths of American fear…
…was left hanging. Like a left behind side of beef in a butcher’s freezer.
I paid little attention to the goings on about the scamdemic; I said all I needed to say back in March.
UNbeknownst to me, however, the NWO propaganda machine was pumping out all the reasons required to fear the coronavirus on a 24/7 basis, if you count the TV/radio coverage. The scare came spilling out of the media and onto the world before the virus was even officially announced.
It was a tactical execution of a mass manipulation of the results of the social science experiments the ‘mandarins of the future’ had made available to themselves.
After reducing the Nation’s cumulative IQ with a dismantling of an education system proven to provide self-reliant, socially functioning citizen(s) whose contributions to the community enabled progress and supported harmony with and trust in God, the softening up of modern America, using weaponized psychological programs, commenced in earnest after WW II.
The next three pages were devoted to political attacks on President Trump and praise for all things democrat.
The mask became the center of focus again when a Newport Beach psychiatrist declared it a symbol of American fear and frustration, neither of which, I, nor those that I know, exhibit. She connects the economic recovery as dependent on the virus. She must be a democrat because only a democrat will ignore the negative impact that resulted from their criminal actions.
The psychiatrist is recorded as believing the mask has transformed into a symbol that represents the autonomy that has been taken away from so many people. People asserting their choice over whether to wear a mask is an attempt to try to regain control over their lives, she said.
Take note of those italicized sentences and recognize the lack of quotation marks. You’re most likely aware that lack of quotation marks indicates a lack of exactness in what is reported she said. That’s why the link to the story is at the top of the page. Check it yourself. Somebody downstream is paltering.
The psychiatrist’s remarks are used again in vague accusations involving American conservatives, excuse me, American white conservatives, the Tea Party, Trump’s 2016 victory, whites again with a racist, xenophobe slant, unhappy Christians, and whites (again) because our numbers are dwindling while minorities population is rising. To top it all off, Trump emerged (somewhere) and spoke with some force about these issues and that proved worrisome to his voters.
I have some news for MSN, Business Insider and that psychiatrist right here.
The article then moved on to football players and radical troublemakers. The football players take a knee and the NFL appears to be addressing that subject by eliminating fan interest in a capable fashion.
The radical troublemakers are the four congresswomen who call themselves the squad. They have exhibited disrespect for the Nation and the Constitution enough times they should change their group identity name to the pod. Click to learn what Orca pods do to Great Whites.
Tlaib, Omar, Ocasio-Cortez, Pressley.
This moldy oldie is as a lead-in for the conspiracy theories section.
We will proceed then to conspiracy theories but before diving head first into the ankle deep expert opinion in this article you have to understand there will not be an effort to dissuade anyone of the existence of conspiracy theories.
They are real, they are usually effective and they are frequently the end product of a government’s propaganda effort or a foundation’s greater control effort or a corporation’s financial gain effort. Sometimes they are used by communication experts to shape, shade or sharpen public opinion. A few times they are used by publications in an attempt to disrespect the subject or the reader of the article being commented on. There is no question they exist; it doesn’t mean they don’t backfire.
Conspiracy theories are often, as reported in the BI/MSN article, associated with the term ‘anecdotal’ as in anecdotal evidence, which is defined as evidence collected in a casual/informal manner and relying on personal testimony. It is thought of as UNcorroborated by objective, independent evidence such as notarized documents so let’s start there, with the many uses of anecdotal information.
What I want to do first, then, is model how anecdotal evidence is used by, for and against mankind every day in every way. The amount of anecdotal information shared by humanity is immeasurable and that realization should be considered proof enough that Life itself is a conspiracy! So why are people who question the use of masks, covid-19 and the use of vaccines accused of being conspiracy theorists and mocked as if they’re UNbalanced dangers to society or worse?
https://www.bucksafa11.org/2019/04/14/all-i-can-say-is/ published here last year is a fine example of anecdotal evidence connected to the mostly looked upon by the public with favor, the space program.
The intent of the original story’s content about the ISS is only clearly stated in the last line of the https://www.independent.co.uk/ article where it states, “the study can be used to help improve safety measures that meet NASA requirements for deep space human habitation” but so much more is suggested throughout.
The first sentence delivers the motherlode … brimming with bacteria and fungi that can cause diseases and form biofilms that promote antibiotic resistance, and can even corrode the spacecraft, a new study has found… but my favorite line is … NASA scientists discovered microbes mainly came from humans and were similar to those found in public buildings and offices here on Earth… notice the crafty use of the UNdefined ‘mainly’ and the UNnamed ‘new study’. That information could be identified as anecdotal evidence not accepted in a court of law but believe me those vagaries will be accepted by congress when NASA goes to the well one more time, if they haven’t already.
While such wording appears interested in only one thing, money for ISS expansion, it broadens the possibilities into deep space exploration, independent biological experimentation and, that easily exploited pit of bureaucratic quicksand, safety.
Years ago such a study was called ‘engineering of consent’.
During the early cold war years the definition the U.S. Army used to describe the U.S. government’s view of psychological warfare was classified top secret. During the 1980’s a collection of early psychological warfare planning records were obtained through a FOIA request (Science of Coercion – Christopher Simpson) that shed some light on the effort and purpose behind the propaganda programs.
Psychological warfare employs all moral and physical means, other than orthodox military operations, which tend to:
a. destroy the will and the ability of the enemy to fight.
b. deprive him of the support of his allies and neutrals.
c. increase in our own troops and allies the will to victory.
Psychological warfare employs any weapon to influence the mind of the enemy. The weapons are psychological only in the effect they produce and not because of the nature of the weapon themselves. In this light, overt (white), covert (black), and gray propaganda; subversion; sabotage; special operations; guerrilla warfare; espionage; political, cultural, economic, and racial pressures are all effective weapons. They are effective because they produce dissension, distrust, fear and hopelessness in the minds of the enemy, not because they originate in the psyche of propaganda or psychological warfare agencies.
There’s an eyeful wouldn’t you say? Well, here’s more from Christopher Simpson’s “Science of Coercion” – .
…As war approached, the Rockefeller Foundation clearly favored efforts designed to find a “democratic prophylaxis” that could immunize (there’s that word again) the United States’ large immigrant population from the effects of Soviet and Axis propaganda. In 1939, the foundation organized series of secret seminars with men it regarded as leading communication scholars to enlist them in an effort to consolidate public opinion in the United States in favor of war against Nazi Germany– a controversial proposition opposed by many conservatives, religious leaders, and liberals at the time– and to articulate a reasonably clear-cut set of ideological and methodological preconceptions for the emerging field of communication research29.
Harold Lasswell, who had the ear of foundation administrator John Marshall at these gatherings, over the next two years won support for a theory that seemed to resolve the conflict between the democratic values that are said to guide U.S. society, on the one hand, and the manipulation and deceit that often lay at the heart of projects intended to engineer mass content, on the other. Briefly, the elite of U.S. society (“those who have money to support research,” as Lasswell bluntly put it) should systematically manipulate mass sentiment in order to preserve democracy from threats posed by authoritarian societies such as Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union.
One Reckefeller seminar participant, Donald Slesinger (former dean of the social science at the University of Chicago), blasted Lasswell’s claims as using a democratic guise to tacitly accept the objectives and methods of a new form of authoritarianism. We [the Rockefeller seminar] have been willing, without thought, to sacrifice both truth and human individuality in order to bring about given mass responses to war stimuli,” Slessinger contended. “We have thought in terms of fighting dictatorships-by-force through the establishment of dictatorship-by-manipulation”. Slessinger’s view enjoyed some support from other participants and from Rockefeller Foundation officers such as Joseph Willets, who criticized what he described as authoritarian or even fascist aspects of Lasswell’s arguments. Despite this resistance, the social polarization created by the approaching war strongly favored Lasswell, and in the end he enjoyed substantial new funding and an expanded staff courtesy of the foundation. Slessinger, on the other hand, drifted away from the Rockefeller seminars and appears to have rapidly lost influence within the community of academic communication specialists…
I’ve long accepted, as most people surely have, the existence of the ‘hidden hand’ responsible for controlling the direction and speed the world travels down life’s path. Lately, I’ve been putting more focus on the chain-of-command above and beyond the usual political suspects who manage to absorb, ignore or deflect even the worst accusations. Often I rest under the cover of my belief in the Final Outcome.
Exploring that chain-of-command is daunting. New oligarchs are being added in a timely fashion it seems and their corresponding contributions to the ongoing reset has caused many to draw new conclusions. There are a few constant’s in the history of political change and one of them is the persistent, easily organized and rarely prosecuted Left that conquered Russia.
