An unusual topic for this blog but one that actually fits many movements we see in these times. Sociopathic behavior? No empathy, how about Psychopathic behavior? The dark triad - a blend of Machiavellism thrown in with a knack for good acting? LOL, lots of examples of people that are very real and are indeed "out there" for you to bump into and be exploited by. Think critically.
Here Malone tries to explain. Very well I might add. Just add in the reality of other factors like depleting global energy reserves and too many consumers afoot and here then is another take on this very popular and ubiquitous influence mechanism. Noam Chomsky wrote "Manufacturing Consent" many years ago, it's the same idea only augmented with advanced media and lazy if not deceitful scholarship. Integrity in scholarship used to matter, now it only does if someone dares to disagree. Then Katy bar the door.
The concept of 5th generation warfare (state of the art propaganda with all of the social media and concerted censorship available to a state or person these days) as a means of manufacturing public and individual opinions can be seen in the expression of our popular media every day. Its examples are often related to a whole host of machinations we now see and hear about every day. This kabuki theater is active in how events are carefully scripted to present a desired result. The omission or editing of truth and the abject promotion of lies without care or consequence fits the definition of evil in my opinion. We often lack words for it which was Malone's quandary but I think he gets to the point. The only way to win as Malone puts it, is not to play this game. Think for yourself, question everything, unplug from the matrix!
