Objective:Health - Mass Formation Psychosis

Tue, 11 Jan 2022 00:00 UTC

Mass Formation Psychosis has been allover social media of late, after it was explained by Dr. Robert Malone on his widely censored interview with Joe Rogan. It's made such a splash that the control system has gone into high gear trying to "debunk" the idea (see articles on Reuters and AP, for example); never mind that the "debunking" consists of "we talked to 3 'experts' and they say it doesn't exist".

But regular viewers of Objective:Health know that we've been talking about this phenomenon, although not under this current name, for the past 7 years. It's not new and not unique to the 'pandemic'. The mass control of the thought patterns of the population has a long history, although the science of mass hypnosis has become more exacting and refined.

Join us on this episode of Objective:Health as we look into the trance state the world is currently under, the means by which its achieved and maintained, and whether or not it's possible to break out of it.

THE PURE LOGIC OF PURE GREED

If we continue to exercise our current madness, which is to say, our totalitarian technological presence and -uhhh- 'awareness', it should continue to grow stronger and remain ever, in firm control. No matter what!

There is an old story about an obsessive strong man (a weight-lifter) who reasoned, 'If I buy a calf at a young age, and I lift him every day, even as he grows; my strength too will grow, and I will always have the advantage.'

This is exactly how things work. As we pair intellectuality/smartness and all the 'good things' in life with greed....it makes pure, perfect sense.

This is why greed lasts forever and it is eminently logical for us to pursue to its very end.

Follow the leader! Believe in chronic, 'developing', 'growing' technology-AS THE TRUTH.

And have a nice day....

A real good one!

ned,

nedlud That calf story reminds me of the book Holes in which someone gets a young pig and carries it up a mountain every day to build his strength.

I read that as an adolescent, liked it, and I'd probably still find the movie decent.

Funny how "mass formation psychosis" is suddenly big news as it's been painfully obvious that it's the real pandemic. It's nice and refreshing to finally have the concept go mainstream though (even if the mainstream media are trying to discredit it). Maybe it'll be the catalyst to get some people out of it.

I've been saying "mass hysteria" about the sheeple response from the beginning of the "pandemic" and I think I've described it as "mass psychosis" too (which I think most SOTTites also must have noticed early on was what was happening).

Sigmund Freud's nephew wrote:

"The State am I proclaimed Louis XIV at the time when kings held absolute power, and in essence he was right, but times have changed since then. The steam engine, the press and mass literacy - the trident of the industrial revolution - wrested power from the sovereigns to hand it over to the people who received it as a legacy. In fact, economic strength often translates into political authority and the history of the Industrial Revolution reveals how it passed from the throne and from the aristocracy to the bourgeoisie. Universal suffrage and the generalization of education subsequently strengthened this process, to the point that the bourgeoisie in turn began to fear the ordinary people, the masses who promise themselves to come to power. Today, however, a reaction is looming, the minority has discovered that they can influence the majority according to their interests, it is now possible to shape the opinion of the masses to persuade them to direct the strength they have recently acquired in the desired direction. An inevitable process, given the current structure of the company. Propaganda necessarily intervenes in all its relevant aspects, whether it is politics, finance, industry or agriculture, welfare activities or education "

You have just read the words of Edward Louis Bernays (1928), the father of modern "Propaganda", what has now effectively become the First Power: "the conscious and intelligent manipulation of the opinions and habits of the masses plays a role important in a democratic society, those who master this social device constitute an invisible power that truly runs the country "

The media power has surpassed the founding powers of the state and is entitled to impose governments, the birth and death of political parties. Create the conditions for a legislative intervention or to make it suffer, unleash panic by promoting finance, foment fear; it causes crises, wars to be accepted or unleashed; it opens up trade and consumption, picks up economies, destroys people's respectability and credibility. Invent consent, fuel dissent. Create good and bad, friends and enemies, gods and monsters: real or alleged.

It entertains the people: it baptizes fashions, trends and social networks, spreads sports, models of life and virtue. It manufactures culture, thought and common knowledge, now global.

“We are largely governed by men of whom we ignore everything, but who are able to shape our mentality, guide our tastes, suggest what to think. They govern us by virtue of their natural authority, their ability to formulate the ideas we need, and their position in the social structure.

The First Power: who decides what we have to think

It matters little how we individually react to this situation, since in all aspects of daily life, from politics to business, from our social behavior or our moral values, we are in fact dominated by a small number of people capable of understanding mental processes and social models of the masses. They are the ones who pull the strings, control public opinion, exploit the old existing social forces, invent other models to organize the world and guide it ".

Thus wrote Bernays, while in the United States and the United Kingdom the first television sets were beginning to appear.

Would you say different things in 2022? In an era of enormous media concentrations on a planetary level, when there is no boundary between news and entertainment, between facts and opinions, between what is substantial and what is banal.

And U.S? We can only be wary and investigate.

Be wary of media bombings of unified networks: why do they insist so much on that news, on that particular issue? About that character? Give insistent media coverage to a political, economic, commercial event; giving resonance to that cultural, ideological or thought current hides an end. All time. And above all: HOW is that fact, that matter, that umpteenth "epochal event" dealt with? Critically evaluate individual messages before making them our own: true or false? Who's talking? Who is writing? Who finances them? Is it a good or bad message?

To deepen by probing multiple sources, in order to be forced to orient oneself among several ideas and theses in comparison, so as to be able to build one's own autonomous and adult thought.

Unless it is indifferent to us: to be forced again what to think, what to say, how to live, and finally, how we should act. Because, as Bernays also demonstrates: Knowledge is Power.

And the global media giants of the West are well aware of this: from Netflix to Walt Disney, from Comcast Corp to AT&T, from CHTR to Sony, from Reuters to Viacom. Without considering the GAFAMs of the web and IT, on whose channels our working and relationship life now depends: Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft.

Who owns them? Who controls them?

Edward Louis Bernays, who by today's standards would certainly be considered a "conspiracy theorist", had already made it clear to us in 1928.

Among the contemporaries who have dedicated their life as scholars tomanipulation of language and communication there is an American ofRussian origin (his father, also a scholar, had transmigrated to the United States in1913).

He is called Noam Chomsky, and the production of him relating tocommunication, especially applied to politics, is impressive, albeithis international fame is mainly linked to generative grammar- transformational that sews, for the first time, language to Human creativity. By reversing previous beliefs he discovered that all languagesthey apply to the same modules present in every human brain, sofollow the same rules. Modern neuroscience then addednew indications, which confirmed his theories. Linguist, professor emeritus at MIT (Massachuttes Institute of Technology) of Cambridge, having begun his teaching career at Harvard, is also a philosopher and one of the greatest communication theorists, from one American radical leftist position that began with opposition to Vietnam war. Very attached to Italy (he received an honorary degreefrom the universities of Florence and Bologna), he is one of the leading scholars of that"Consensus factory" we were talking about before, through themechanism of a propaganda that is most often hidden, it serves those who holdthe power to maintain control over public opinion. And from his ownbooks on the subject a sort of decalogue has been drawn on the strategies ofmanipulation that we can summarize with this scheme:

1- Distract the public by bombarding them with interesting news (fromgossip to the great facts of black and costume) but not important from the pointview of decision-making centers. It's called the Distraction Strategy.

2- Offer the solutions after creating the problem: if you wantimplement very tough security measures, the defense against thecrime, so that the measures you want to apply comerequested directly by citizens. It's called "problem, reaction,solution".

3- The strategy of gradualness. For example, Neoliberalism smeared ontwo decades has provoked an acceptance that otherwise would have beenvery difficult. A tax cleaver is more difficult to accept than onetax installments over the years.

4- The strategy of deferring. By dint of being postponed, a problemloses interest. And when the solution arrives, it no longer has43the critical attention needed, and there is already the willingness toresignation.

5- Address the audience as if it were made up of children, usingchildish simplifications. People who are treated as a child often reactlike a child. A famous spin doctor of some American presidentsrecently explained that to reach the widest audiencepossible you need to use language for teenagers, ages maximum 14 years.

6- Focus on the emotional aspect, which can be controlled much more than reflection.So put the limbic factor in front of everything, workingmediatically on emotions.

7- Keep the public in mediocrity by differentiating education.The "high" study left only to the upper classes, while for the classeslower are the trades.

8- Encourage the public to be complacent with mediocrity. Yupthink of the many television broadcasts extolling various models ofmediocrity, showing them as extremely attractive goals. OR use vulgar languages with the justification of comedy.

9- Use possibly true facts to reinforce self-guilt, inin order to exploit it. The classic example can be thatof the accusation of tax treason: if the nation falls apart, the fault lies withwho escapes and not who badly administers and allows this evasion forown ends. (For example, the capital resulting from illegal activitiesmafia that in any case enter the banking circuits and fuel activitieslegal). The feelings of guilt, amplified by the media pillory, lead todepression, which is the opposite of rebellion.

10- Know individuals better than they know themselves,ie use psychology, biology and neuropsychiatry eneuroscience in general to control the individual.

As can be seen, the part common to all the individual heads of this decalogueis communication. And common is the fact that, through communication, yes seeks to influence cultural processes. If the communication machine did not, knowingly or unknowingly, become an accomplice to the manipulation operations would be impossible. Or at leastthey would make it the job of those who want to manipulate the citizen (both in his capacityof consumer than that of voter) much more difficult. With a risk.If the democratic system is not mature enough, or the appetites - economic and political, or simply of privileged nomenclature or notthey agree to share the privileges - they are too strong, the risk is that of onetotalitarian drift. All this means that, for those involved in communication,the truth tout court represents a very delicate problem, to be faced with keen eye on the realities of the society in which one lives and seeks to represent. Because, in addition to the totalitarian ones, they can be unleashed,from an imprudent use of communication, even populist drifts.Especially when the less affluent classes are interestedcan be pushed to express rebellion through an implosion,what is called the "war between the poor", and which arises when yesit restricts the living space and when access to benefits, albeit limited, is no longeradequate to grant the masses not even the minimum necessary for subsistence

" There are men who, without our realizing it, suggest what to think, tell us who to admire and whom to despise "

E. L. Bernays

After his first experiences as an advertiser, Bernays (1891-1995) understands that the manipulation of public opinion can be used equally for political reasons as for economic purposes. He experiences utility in the political sphere, in particular, while working at the Creel Committee, on behalf of the President of the United States Thomas Woodrow Wilson (1856-1924).

A more than convincing experiment, given the results, so why not go further?

In 1923 he published the essay Crystallizing Public Opinion, in which he expounds the main sales techniques, justifying them in a perspective of "democratic morality", in an attempt to legitimize the role of shady power groups, not always well identified, in manipulating and directing the public opinion with the aim of obtaining a presumed and vague common good, supported by "new values" with which to replace those already existing and responsible for making society impervious to manipulation.

Bernays is also clearly inspired by Walter Lippmann's (1889-1974) essay, Public Opinion (1922). Lippmann, however, in addition to exposing the techniques of manipulation, denounces the risk in terms of a possible counterfeiting of the truth and "the natural environment of society", with the consequent advantage of those who control the media at the expense of competition - and of the same free opinion. For Bernays, however, what matters is to feed the idea of a sort of absolute power placed in the hands of the "public relations consultant": the constructor of opinions.

In practice, he takes on the techniques for controlling ideas and opinions with an ethical purpose; techniques that must act on the crowd through the application of precise psycho-social strategies, exploiting the persuasive power of the media to modify the perception of reality, and taking into account the fact that "the message is more convincing when its broadcaster does not show interest in promote it "and, therefore, using third parties, or neutral entities and groups, already existing or created specifically, as" publishers of messages "to propagate ideas and make them acceptable to the crowd. So there is a need for spontaneity and "purity" of communication: everything must be obvious, natural, in some way a democratic sign of social justice. A voice of the people, an effective and urgent need.

"If we can identify the mechanisms and springs of the collective mentality, could we not control the masses and mobilize them at will without them realizing it?",

In the light of this consideration, for Bernays the need to govern from shadow the "flock", constituted by its nature by those who cannot grasp the value of new ideas, perhaps different, certainly not yet accepted in society. The "invisible government", of which he is an avid supporter, would represent that elitist circle of "intelligent men" appointed to maintain a "manipulated democratic order", especially through the media. To this end, the "systematic study of the psychology of crowds" is crucial to realize the potential of well-designed manipulation.

In Propaganda (1928), Barnays also proposes a distinction between the methods of the old propaganda and the methods of the new propaganda. The watershed between the two are the social and behavioral sciences, which analyze society and individuals in their attitude, anticipating their needs and creating new ones, and the standardization of opinions, especially using the channel of unconscious communication. Bernays brings together political and commercial propaganda, asserting that the basic mechanisms are the same, to the point that political and corporate leadership overlap. The political leader must not be a "servant of the electoral body", but forge his electorate, canceling the vox populi vox Dei, in favor of a leadership capable of transmuting "the poor paper of an electoral program into the gold of the votes".

Playing on the range of emotions according to the different social groups, soliciting not so much political opinions as those of feelings. The important thing is to forge one's voters with the right techniques and with the power of the media, because "you can convince a community to accept a good government, just as you can persuade it to accept any product".

Seems that Joseph Goebbels had read very very well all his books :lol:, a pupil of a Jew, a NAZI....................

One time more than a decade ago, I was in a poor state of mind, but I was minding my own business or at least I thought I was. What happened is some folks, dear to me, climbed up some steps to challenge my attitude, which I admit upfront was not favorable, but I didn't climb up the steps, they did . I love them dearly and I still do, but what happened after that (when they confronted me) I reckon will remain with me and them forever, but it wasn't perty. I maintain my innocence in this matter but I took the judgement for the sake of the family because I am a man. Here is the thing, this year for Christmas I got a T-shirt and it encapsulates this personal moment of my own, and I'm sure others can relate to similar family happenings and such. Anyhow the shirt, which I wore yesterday, it is red, says as follows:

~~

You can't scare me.

I have two daughters!

~

Ha, ha. Memories to treasure. I'm so glad they are out of the house now, both with college degrees, but maybe, just maybe there could be some grand-kids on the way and oh how I would treasure that. The beauty for me is after all of our travails we still love each other firmly and with resolve. Love is a mystery is it not - to be relished.

Buffalo_Ken Outlined, albeit schematically, the panorama that contextualizes thepresent, the brain at this point is free to search for situations in the pastsimilar. And he finds them in the Athens of ancient Greece, about half a century beforebirth of Christ. Just as today the arrival of the Internet in a widespread manner abillions of people change the current perception of reality, thus, 25 centuries ago, the provision of writing to the people and the birth of schools academies open to those who have the quality to participate, without anydifference of birth or class, constituted a real revolution. While before writing available to (almost) everyone, the attention oflisteners was focused on memorizing the poetic tale, ofsuddenly finding the written poem freed the listener from this debt, e19he left his mind free to speculate on contents and meanings. Yup gave up a part of memory capacity, one grew in the capacity of processing. And in the number of people who could access it. Certain,education was not about slaves, but not unlike it todaydoes not concern a still huge and ever increasing number of total poor,and therefore free of rights. The new slaves. Today, with the Internet, memory is given up even more, but it is boughtenormously, through incredibly faster access and onea wealth that was absolutely unimaginable until a few decades agoability to connect which, on the basis of recent studies on the brain and onneural centers scattered throughout the body, ours should quickly developintelligence and our ability to adapt to a reality in motiondizzying.The other striking similarity between these two 25-century-wide shores is thelanguage, therefore communication. Just as today mystification dominatesof language, the world of appearance, the use of emotions instead ofconscience and critical spirit, the loss of meaning of terms such as ethics, truth,awareness, justice, the prevalence of selfishness and corruption,on the other side of these 25 centuries the terms were almost identical. Aunfinished but apparently functioning democracy, the degradation of onephilosophy of science, that of the Sophists of the school of Miletus (Thales,Heraclitus, Anaximenes, Anaximander) and the Eleatic one (Parmenides,Zeno), who for the first time looked with attention to man, tonature and the cosmos, which thought in terms of justice and not of simple good,who saw women with equal rights as men, whom she considered allequal human beings therefore she did not admit slavery, with transformation of sophism in a trading of ever more elastic and devoid of concepts meaning, in which the important thing was not to get close (or at least groped) to the truth,but simply to win and beat the opponent in a degraded dialectic a pure exploitation. A new sophistical school, contextualized to that present Athenian, the school of Protagoras, Gorgias and Prodicus. The first stepstowards nihilism and relativism, which will then be so successful in Europein the first half of the last century. The problem, yesterday as today, was that it is the sophism of yesterday, full of concepts new and extraordinary, but difficult to grasp by common minds,exactly like nihilism and its substitutes of the second course, insertedin times when the democratic system was and is strongly linked tocommunication, made and facilitate access to trivialization,with all its derivatives of simplification that lead to a sort of degradation cultural by subtraction. Able, and we will see this in the course of oursmeetings, to change perceptions and therefore the majority culture.

alexal60 Naturally now, in our approach to the ancient world, we will only give some essential features that serve to highlight some consonances between these two eras, past and present. Some "functional" brushstrokes, which are sufficient to give us an idea, without delving into figures that are gigantic, and which are still gutted and discussed today, since they continue to affect our Western culture and we have not yet finished learning from them.

It is the dilemma that continually arises before usto information operators. At least to those who do information onmedia, because those involved in corporate communication or press offices,but often also those who frequent gossip, having the primary interestdefense of the company or the spectacularization of the news to obtain themaximum sales does not pose ethical problems. But how many times,especially in the political debate, does the need to win at any cost prevail?And how many times the information of the media, in the reports of these debates, thereit simply reports without addressing them critically, thereby providing onefalse interpretation? And even if not necessarily for malice, how muchless by omission?

In reality, if we go back to ancient Greece, we realize that it is the eternal struggle between Homer's Iliad, handed down orally from the 9th century BC (secondHerodotus, but we must consider that Homer's Lives have been written about itseven, all with different details and origins) and written in the sixth century, and the Anabasis of Xenophon, a contemporary Athenian historian and mercenary of Socrates. Both, Homer and Xenophon, narrate a war of conquest with imperialistic and commercial purposes brought by the Greeks to ancient Persia. But what a huge difference. Homer is certainly the forerunner of the modern ones fiction ..

The Iliad contains all the rules, which have remained unchanged over the centuries. Therewar of conquest, so bloody that Troy was destroyedforcing the survivors to exodus, it turns into a war over issuesof honor, brought by a king whose wife had been kidnapped against the princekidnapper and the people of him. A bloody war in which however the two greats enemy heroes, Hector and Achilles, are both great warriors and positive heroes andladies. A war from which Virgil drew inspiration to tellin the Aeneid the story of Aeneas, a Trojan refugee, son of Anchises, who landed on Latium shores and ancestor, with the survivors of Troy, of the Roman people,considering this highly noble origin and thus inventing one second, extraordinary fiction.

This does not mean that the two works do notcontain, at the same time, the high ethical and moral teachings of the respectiveeras. Indeed, they are masterful bearers. At the same time, however,the Iliad, half-true story (the ruins of Troy discovered in modern timesthey testify) half manipulated and adapted, sweetening it and in theat the same time using fictional mechanisms to ensure itssale over the centuries, is the beginning of a great compromise. History, or thenews, intended for the people, do not need to follow the rules oftruth. The narrative, as seen at the beginning, has more elascic rules. Enoughchange some contexts, introduce elements of romance, and you canobtain a better consensus result by avoiding appearing unwelcome andreveal its true intent. The Anabasis of Xenophon are quite different. First of all, the latter tellsa true story, of a war in which he personally participated, and thathe reports with an extraordinary realism, making Homer understand much betterthe motivations that pushed their contemporaries, without softening eithersweeten reality.

And the war of Cyrus the Younger against his brother Artaxerxes IIit remains what it was: ugly, dirty and bad, with appetites clearly in evidenceand the deceptions of the powerful. I think it is superfluous, in modern times, to explain the reasons why the Iliad, andthen the Odyssey, they had the extraordinary success they had (aThe Odyssey is also very modern fiction, with a heroic protagonist anddeceitful, prudent and reckless, determined but often on the verge ofabyss and the loss of hope, with a faithful and indomitable wife, whoshe also resists the suitors using deception). And it is equally superfluous explain why Xenophon, while keeping his testimony in the schools, never had popular success.

Homer and Xenophon represent (but here we must add “albetter ", to distance ourselves from the current era, in which this clashhappens "at worst") the two faces of communication, the same as how who uses Schopenhauer to use tricks in the communication for their own profit and who instead uses it to discover themanipulations of the truth, even if relative.

Who is used to attending media different may realize the difference between the two choices.

If one takes the trouble to check, as I have, one finds that those promoting the use of mass psychosis program's and technique's to the U.S. Government are both Jew's; This comment is not Antisemitism , but straight forward reporting of the "Facts". It is a "Fact" that Jewish/Zionist individuals occupy the commanding heights of U.S. Governmental department's from Congressional bribes/donations, the Federal Reserve, and everywhere else. This is not coincidence; it is organised and purposeful. The organisation of American? Jew's actually advertises for people, for them to fund and sponsor for election to Congress; they seek ever greater Government control, yet U.S. citizens dare not object, or even comment, for fear of being charged with antisemitism. The U.S. has not been a Democracy for a very long time, It is being destroyed from within; yet, the U.S. Constitution expressly forbids those with foreign citizenship and allegiances from holding Government office. I know this, why, I wonder, do not they? Amen It Is Written.

Let's speak about Edward Bernays again:

"We are governed by men of whom we ignore everything, but who are able to shape our mentality, guide our tastes, suggest what to think".

Edward Bernays

Thus wrote, in the 1920s, Edward L. Bernays (1891-1995), an American advertiser and publicist, born in Vienna and grandson of the father of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud (1856-1939). Of Jewish origin, he came from the rich Viennese bourgeoisie (not from a poor Polish or Ukrainian shtetl), and his family boasted, in fact, blood ties with Freud, a close relationship that Bernays always made present to all his interlocutors, exploiting him in socially advantageous way.Moreover, like his famous psychoanalyst uncle, he was also the father of a science in some way behavioral and analytical: the engineering of consent, theorized in particular in the essay The Engineering of Consent (The Engineering of Consent, 1947), in which he explains that “Freedom of speech and the free press […] have in fact expanded the Charter of Rights, among which there is also the right of persuasion. Anyone therefore, through these means of communication has the possibility of influencing the attitudes and actions of his fellow citizens […] ».

Thanks to his knowledge in the psychological field (uncle Freud is constantly at the center of his work as a consultant), Bernays devotes himself to the study of a series of techniques that make it possible to concretize the hypothesis of persuasive mass communication. It is what he defines as a "system of amplification of ideas", through which anyone with a position of government (or in any case a reason for interest) can make citizens, considered as "public", change their minds, simply by circulating the right ideas with the due media emphasis.In this way, ideas are transformed into actions and then into political, religious or commercial choices. Obviously, the ideas that are put into circulation, and which generally represent the interests of a kind of minority that guides - often occultly - the countries, must be accentuated in the appropriate way and must respond to the conscious and unconscious wishes of the people of whom one is concerned. it wants to condition opinions and, therefore, final choices.

The amplification of ideas

The best weapon of "amplification of ideas" that our individual identifies are the media. Referring to America, he writes that the: "Country is covered with billboards, flyers, and advertisements that arrive in the mail. In the round tables, panels, forums, classrooms and legislative assemblies and public places every means of mass communication, day after day, spreads words, someone's words ", and this is a first level of propagation and diffusion, but "at the second level there are the means of communication that belong to and are managed by the many organized groups of this country".Who does Bernays refer to when he speaks of "organized groups" or even "secrets"?

An answer can be traced to its best customers: Procter & Gamble, American General Electric, General Motors, President Eisenhower, the CIA ...

Power groups in a manipulated democracy

In fact, it is not possible to be mistaken about the identity of the control groups to which he refers, since he gives a precise definition of them in his essay Propaganda (1928), identifying them as those who are able to manipulate "the hidden mechanism of society" by arriving at constitute an "invisible government which is the real power that controls".Bernays, one of the hundred most influential men of the twentieth century, the one who has joined some of the most powerful men in the world in the management of information and in the manipulation of public opinion seems almost to issue a strange warning with a statement that seems an admission: "We we are governed, our minds are shaped, our tastes are shaped, our ideas are almost totally influenced by men we have never even heard of. This is the logical result of the way our democratic society is organized ».

Manipulated democracy

Is a democracy that manipulates ideas and substitutes opinion through the use of the media really democratic?

The sociologist Vance Packard (The occult persuaders, 1957) confirms that there are occult characters, behind the public ones, characters who "secretly study our intimate weaknesses and shame in order to influence our behavior more effectively", and refers precisely to Edward Bernays as a perfector of this mechanism, later merged into the so-called public relations.

To arrive at a complete theorization of the engineering of consensus, and sharpen the weapons of manipulation of public opinion, Bernays starts from Freud's considerations on the masses (in turn linked to the Psychology of Crowds by Gustave Le Bon, 1895).

The concept that the publicist puts at the center of his analysis is that being inside the crowd the individual changes his psychic activity: emotions and feelings are excited, his intellectual capacity is reduced to minimal levels of reasoning and identification. with each other in the crowd increases. Those who act within the crowd sacrifice autonomy, control and balance in exchange for group, protection and anonymity.

Thus, Bernays identifies techniques of "scientific manipulation" of public opinion, according to him to control social chaos and give full decision-making power to precisely those groups capable of governing ideas in the right direction, converging towards positive choices for the society, a constructive process that would constitute the heart of a kind of involuntary democracy: people collaborate positively in it without even realizing it, simply because someone imposes the right direction through manipulation: "a flock that needs to be guided," says Bernays, repeating what Freud already said, but he must be guided without realizing it...............

I'm absolutly convinced, that Joseph Goebbels read all his books with extreme simpathy, specially " PROPAGANDA ", a NAZI that Learn from an Hebrew.....

In 1920 at John Hopkins University psychiatrist Dr. J.B. Watson performs some experiments on small children aged from 3 months to 1 year. The experiments are extraordinary in their simplicity. In one of these he presents a lighted candle to a child to see if he is afraid of fire. In another he introduces animals into the environment to see if the child is frightened.

One of these experiments is called the “Little Albert Experiment” where a rabbit is placed next to a 3 month old baby named Albert. After a while the child becomes attached to the animal and also begins to stroke it. Then Dr. Watson decides to change the environment by making a loud pounding noise each time Albert touches the rabbit, resulting in frightening the baby. Eventually, Albert is repulsed by the rabbit, screaming in terror every time he is placed near him.

By changing the environment Watson discovers that the child's undeveloped mind can be controlled, teaching her how to behave from time to time with infinite possibilities and combinations. From his experiments Watson reaches a radical conclusion that will lay the foundations of the political and social engineering of the 20th century.From his research he concludes that the dominant force in society is not love but fear.

Then billions and billions of dollars of multinationals are injected over time into the fields of education, scientific and political research for a pre-established plan of social and human engineering.

"Give me a baby and I can turn him into any kind of man."

These are the words of psychiatrist Dr. J.B. Watson, the founder of behaviorism.

According to this world view, the behavior of organisms, including humans, is easily predictable and predictable and therefore controllable, and since then governments and scientists with massive corporate funding have worked fervently in conditioning the human being to be that perfect. gear of that machine now called "the market".

The love of power is the driving force of the global economy and the installation of fear in people's minds is the tool used to manipulate society, using the mainstream media to keep the game going. People are afraid of their jobs, their livelihoods, family commitments, financial status and social position. He is afraid for his community, public resources, crime, national security and health care.

Many citizens today have become compliant and compliant slaves, tolerant of gradual obedience, ready to trade a physical slavery for a psychological one. The thing that worries me most is not so much the limitations they will impose on us but the submissiveness and complacency that a nation of smiling depressed people is producing.

The only thing that is fast disappearing in society today is the ability to be human, the ability to discern, reason, think critically and use intuition. People these days rely on their peers, government institutions and wink at their idols giving them purpose, desperately looking for a handrail to hold on to, meaning and understanding out of their own minds. They have delegated their thinking to others, throwing open the door for any psychopath who will gleefully assume the role of leader, playing the Pied Piper for the mandri.

Buffalo_Ken Giovanni Bernardone Morosini (Moriconi) (alias Francesco d’Assisi/Francis of Assisi and alias Marino Morosini) was born in Paris and was one of the sons of the powerful Venetian Sephardic Jewish family of merchants / bankers formed by Pietro Bernardone Moriconi and Pica de Bourlemont from France. ??????????

alexal60 · 2022-01-13T16:36:43Z

The TALE of this Francis of Assisi, is just another FAKE story in the History:

The name "Francesco" (Francis) is simply a nickname - which means "French" - as he was born in Paris. Likewise, "Assisi" is an intentional corruption of the ancient word that was used to indicate the location of Ascesi. Therefore the nickname "Francis of Assisi" would more correctly translate into "The French ascended". Contrary to historical retelling, the Venetians had no reason to convert to Christianity up to this time, so John was almost certainly of the Jewish religion. By the end of the 12th century, the banking sector and the commercial empire of the Morosini family (wool, precious fabrics, metals, salt and wheat) extended from England to Constantinople. However, the events that led to the Treaty of Venice and the expulsion of the Venetians from France in 1182 and from Byzantium in the same year ruined the family's fortunes. His father, Pietro Bernandone Morosini then placed his son and his entire family under protection in Pisa, while he returned to Venice to confront the results of the disastrous reign of Doge Vitale II Michiel. For unknown reasons, the family was later forced to leave Pisa and move to the locality known as Ascesi (today Assisi), where they lived for a few years. In 1187, the Beneventan Antipope Gregory VIII was expelled from power and exiled, and the Morosini family moved to the newly commissioned Palazzo Moriconi in Lucca, destined to remain a powerful stronghold of the family for the next two hundred years. There, Giovanni and his brothers were instructed in languages, financial matters and the laws deriving from the Venice treaties (the basis of today's maritime and commercial law). However, from an early age, it is told of the young Giovanni's great desire to become a "troubadour", a military knight rather than following in the footsteps of his Jewish Sephardic Venetian ancestors as a trader and financier. The so-called "Longhi" Venetians, in fact, were proud of their status "above" the war and of the miseries attributable to these that they themselves had constantly financed, and for one of the sons of a Morosini to seek his own success in such a position "Inferior" would have been met with great disappointment by his father Pietro Bernandone. When a descendant of the Pierleoni - one of the oldest families of Venice (among the so-called "Longhi", therefore) - the Antipope Innocent III came to power in 1198, Giovanni decided to follow the call to arms of Innocent III and to undertake the military career - which involved his conversion, at least in appearance, to Christianity. This event is certainly the historical basis of the context linked to the fact that he was disinherited by his father Pietro Bernardone. Giovanni left Lucca no later than 1201, moving north-east towards the lands of the famous general Bonifacio I, Marquis of Monferrato. Although it is not clear whether he actually reached Monferrato, it is certain that his noble and powerful lineage was recognized and that he was captured, imprisoned (probably awaiting ransom) and released within a year, probably contracting some form of disease. Once he returned to Lucca, and recovered, he embarked on a new journey, this time south with an escort, to Rome. There he met Antipope Innocent III for the first time: a descendant of the Jewish lineage of the Pierleoni / Urseoli of Venice who met a descendant of his bitter enemies of the Morosini family. Although nothing concrete emerged from this first meeting, it is clear that, since John was not immediately executed, Innocent believed in the strong motivations of this ancient enemy of his ancestors and it was probably Innocent himself who baptized him as a Christian. John then took leave of Innocent with the belief that he would become a great general and be able to avenge the wounded honor of his family by the French and the Byzantines.........

alexal60 · 2022-01-13T16:38:20Z

alexal60 In the same year, Venice cooperated with the Roman cult and the English to transport their troops safely by sea and prepare the naval assault on Constantinople in April 1204, giving a hand to Innocent's troops stationed there. Four years later, in 1209, the twenty-eight year old Giovanni Bernardone Morosini (Moriconi) returned to Innocent III with some collaborators and a plan. He - John - would have done what no one had ever done before: convert Venice to Christianity and forge its loyal alliance with Rome and the Roman cult. Although Innocent probably did not believe in the chances of success of such a plan, he nevertheless gave John his blessing. Giovanni then went to Venice the following year to visit Doge Pietro Ziani (1205 - 1229). Being a Morosini, Giovanni probably resided in the Palazzo of the Morosini family, meeting there with Pietro Ziani himself. The proposals he brought to Venice were basically quite simple: as long as Venice had acted as a neutral power in the wars between Christians and Christians and between Christians and Muslims, it would continue to face imminent risks concerning the very foundations of its own commercial, maritime power. and financial. But if Venice had supported the descendants of the Pierleoni / Urseoli and their Roman cult, granting them power in Rome, their future would have been assured, at least as long as the Roman cult had held the fate of the Catholic Church in hand. Giovanni then proposed that the Doge and the dominant Venetian families of the "Longhi" guarantee him the possibility of founding a Christian academy of priest-navigators loyal both to Venice and to Rome which would be strengthened over time by an edict specially drawn up by the cult. Roman and challenging for all Christian nations. Consequently, the Church itself would have helped to reinforce Venice's monopoly in controlling sea trade in exchange for Venice's loyalty, as well as part of the proceeds from the trade itself. Although Pietro Ziani probably did not believe it possible to implement such a plan, he nevertheless agreed to guarantee him the future site of the Basilica of San Marco near the Doge's Palace, as well as the future site of San Francesco della Vigna, near Piazza San Marco, as the first Franciscan Monastery and School of Finance and Navigation. Using the assets of the reconstituted family fortune, also thanks to the attacks carried out on Constantinople, the construction of the future Basilica destined to house the remains of San Marco - of which Giovanni (Francesco) had appropriated himself in Alexandria - began immediately. Giovanni then left Venice to head to Spain and England and recruit the best navigators of the time for the establishment of his new school and his new monastic order in Venice. In 1215, John returned to Rome to attend the Fourth Lateran Council. In 1216, Innocent III died and he was succeeded by Honorius III who took John's plans very much to heart, and, not later than 1219, he assigned his first advisers the task of supervising the progress of the Order of Friars Minor. In the same direction, the Venetians consolidated their joint-venture with the Roman cult through the creation of the Holy See ("Holy See") - a commercial monopoly encompassing the entire known world, based on the control of means of transport for commerce, on the knowledge of navigation techniques, on mapping and cartography as well as on the technology concerning the construction of naval means. The first partnership of the Order of Friars Minor was with England: and this is how the Roman cult and the Venetians allowed for the first time English access to all the most advanced knowledge regarding the most modern technologies applied to ship building. , to metallurgical techniques, military subjects and education, thanks precisely to the role of "Francis of Assisi". Such was the success of Giovanni's (Francesco) action that in 1249 he became the first Christian Doge of Venice (1249 - 1253). It is also for this reason that historians of the Roman cult have over time eliminated all the possibilities of reconnecting St. Francis - of the Morosini / Moriconi family - to the Doge "Marino" (sailor, of the seas) Morosini who reigned in Venice, between 1249 and 1253. In the first year of his reign, the works on the Basilica of San Marco were extended and the first Bucintoro - as a state galley - was built. Then John invoked the papal ring from the Antipope Innocent IV (1243 - 1254) in recognition of his newly established new authority....

alexal60 · 2022-01-13T16:39:16Z

alexal60 In 1250, on the Bucintoro, Doge Giovanni and Innocenzo IV went to the sea in front of Piazza di San Marco, and Doge Marino ritually threw the papal ring into the sea during a formal ceremony of the Roman cult, pronouncing the historic words "Desponsamus te, mare, in signum vero perpetique domini "or" We marry you, o sea, in the name of the one almighty Lord ": a ceremony that sanctioned Venice and the sea as an indissoluble unity (Monad) - and this is how the Holy See (in English "Holy See": Sacro - "Holy"; "See" Mare), as the first completely Christian "joint-venture" in history between the Roman cult, Venice and the Crown of England. With the help of the Franciscans trained by the Venetians, Pope Innocent IV then promoted new teaching centers in Rome, attracting the best and most talented scholars, such as, among others, Thomas Aquinas. It was under the supervision and guidance of Thomas Aquinas that the Roman cult developed its most powerful weapons to fight in the world and dominate it, through legal terms and tricks and the essential terms themselves constituting today's terms of "law" and "justice. ". The Venetians were in fact in possession of the most sophisticated system of maritime edicts, passed from Doge to Doge and formalized in a code as early as the end of the 10th century. The latter was eventually consolidated into the so-called Admiralty Law ("Admiralty Law"), or the law of property and debt - the law that governs money, land, sea and property. Consequently, using the Venetian maritime law as a basic infrastructure, Thomas Aquinas developed a new set of laws which was also granted by right to the Corporation of the Crown of England and called the law of the Admiralty: the latter considered all men and women born without noble titles like animals, or as "human beings" and not "men", represented by a fictitious legal person that provided the possibility for the Crown itself, at that point recognized as their "owner", their treatment in the same way as vessels, banners, or rather "objects". On the death of Giovanni Bernardone Morosini (Moriconi), in 1253, he had fulfilled his initially very ambitious promise. The Holy See was born - that is the joint venture between the Roman cult, Venice and the English Crown. The name of his family and the fortune of the same was restored to the maximum possible honors and he was from that point forward remembered as the greatest general of Venice and as the greatest saint of the Roman cult. To protect the memory of the most important and revered of the servants of both Venice and the Roman cult, John was renamed Francesco (the French) and promoted as a saint immediately after his death. Thus, during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the Roman cult claimed that he had met the same miraculous signs of Jesus Christ in the specific form of the Stigmata. Despite the acquired knowledge and the intellect that lead us to historically frame the nature of these myths, the fables created two hundred years after his death about John (aka St. Francis of Assisi) still persist today.
