Paperback edition of Masters of Illusion: The Rise of Corporate Social Control
The purpose of book two is to explore how the arts of “selling,” —having metastasized into scientifically engineered manipulation of public opinion—were used to nullify growing resentment festering at the turn of the 20th century and create the illusion of a thriving democracy resurrected through pseudo-reform, legislative sleight-of-hand, non-stop corporate public relations, the veneer of political choice, a never ending right and left dichotomy, controlled political “debate,” the successive manufacturing of Enemies and the introduction of mythology to replace history.
It was Corporate America, rising power brokers behind the scenes who were at the vanguard of this new “artistry,” who used it to hide the eclipse of democracy itself—one of the greatest deceptions of all time.
PLUS
Paperback Edition of One Idea to Rule them All: Reverse Engineering American Propaganda
What if there are identifiable shortcuts your brain utilizes to create settled beliefs in small local communities, and what if those shortcuts could be “hacked” in a technological society to influence you in ways you can’t easily perceive?
Learn how the roots of stagecraft and story narrative have displaced an objective search for truth and why this abuse of language is always the first sign of tyranny.
While many are prone to think of propaganda as lies or distortions, there are techniques crafted and refined since the early 1900’s that make that simplistic notion laughable.
Your ignorance of these techniques and the Idea Bullies use them give them vast power over your future, your finances and your children.
Idea bullying is one group’s ability to win consistently in the marketplace of ideas. With enough money, well-connected friends and the techniques just mentioned no other ideas can compete.
Democracy becomes calcified in orthodoxy --one idea to rule them all. Historically this has been called manufacturing of consent, crystallizing public opinion, public relations, and just plain old “propaganda.”
Learn how the roots of stagecraft and story narrative have displaced an objective search for truth and why this abuse of language is always the first sign of tyranny.
