"To many in politics and business, the triumph of the self is the ultimate expression of democracy, where power has finally moved to the people. Certainly, the people may feel they are in charge, but are they really? The Century of the Self tells the untold and sometimes controversial story of the growth of the mass-consumer society. How was the all-consuming self created, by whom, and in whose interests?"

Cambridge Analytica and Surkov Russia mind-fuck are trained into these large language models! #LLM #LargeLanguageModels

Plus 100 years of #EdwardBernays manipulation trained into these large language model machines.

@clintruin @Barbramon1 @dangillmor @TheAtlantic

And The Atlantic has published stories from Peter Pomerantsev in 2014 that are IMPORTANT and not being given constant front-page repeat on The Atlantic in 2024.

RE: "I would argue programmed. It's not like any of this just appeared out of the woodwork. Killing a democracy takes time, takes effort, takes a bit of genius and a bit of research."

That person is named #Surkov in year 2011 - who has gone FAR BEYOND 1995 death of #EdwardBernays

1 "One does not choose to be an #atheist. It isn’t a choice."

2. "everything you heard on Sunday was a lie with no evidence to back it up"

Yes, it is a choice. Because you still believe #EdwardBernays advertising and marketing techniques don't manipulate you.

You made the choice to classify the Bible as a real book in the fiction category. But you do not stand up against ALL mis-classified non-fiction. That is your choice to believe falsehoods.

The Bible is 2000 years old

"Gen Z is drowning in debt as buy-now-pay-later services skyrocket: 'They're continuing to bury their heads in the sand and spend'"

Advertising and marketing by millions of minds are too much for people to resist over-consuming. people are under siege to "grow the economy" and "follow Russia's path to self-destruction" with meme / message manipulation.

"Propaganda, a book written by Edward Bernays in 1928, incorporated the literature from social science and psychological manipulation into an examination of the techniques of public communication."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propaganda_(book)

Today in Labor History November 22, 1891: Dr. Edward L. Bernays was born in Vienna, Austria. Bernays, a nephew of Freud, is considered by many to be father of public relations. He is also credited with getting millions of women to start smoking with his cigarette ads, and helping legitimizing the CIA/United Fruit overthrow of the Guatemalan government. He described the masses as irrational and subject to herd instinct and wrote books on how to harness this to maximize profits.

Another KEY difference between myself, Stephen Gutknecht, and Peter Pomerantsev and the 2024 collaboration with Anne Applebaum is my emphasis on Howard Bloom's experience working with big time music industry stars.

Howard Bloom has New York City #EdwardBernays level experience with the music industry / music cartels. Howard Bloom worked with Billy Joel, Michael Jackson, etc. That's hands on #MonoMyth manipulation experience. Relevant to #SurkovAndPutin / #CambridgeAnalytica mind-fucking.

Donald Trump TRUSTED #CambridgeAnalytica and #SteveBannon - In the same way #EdwardBernays trusted psychology doctor Abraham Brill in NYC 1920's!

Trump is starting to come to terms now that he is out of office, and Putin is no longer winning the #SurkovSiege against the #MassMind - that in the #SurkovSiegeAftermath - we are all facing up to the Edward Bernays aftermath of cancer caused by cigarettes!

@celesteh YES! Another story, in the 1920s the suffragette movement was used by propagandist #edwardbernays. commissioned by what we would call today, Big tobacco he was able to manupulate women into taking up smoking and doubling the market to include women, by making smoking a symbol of the movement.

Because it was generally taboo for women to smoke, he covertly setup a photoshoot of a small group of marching #suffrogettes, who would stop for a smoke on his command, the headline he planned was "Sticks for freedom".

By featuring this meme on frontpages #bigtobacco doubled the number of smokers... the victims didn't even know they were being sold something. #memewarfare #pr #corporatemedia #indoctrination

And the billionaires bombard everyone from #CloudComputing stratosphere with motivational memes and messages ( #TrickleDownMemes ) to over-spend on over-decorated everything, then blame the individual for not outspending the billionaire in public service messages about #EdwardBernays and #Surkov marketing techniques!

Advertising #TrickleDownMessages are scientifically proven to alter human behavior. Hard core statistics on profits generated by fiction falsehoods bombarding #WeThePeople

#SelfUnderSiege #USASickNation

The skill of #EdwardBernays and #SurkovSiege style psychological manipulation has reached a point where the established wealthy hire advertising/marketing/ #InternetResearchAgency / #CambridgeAnalytica companies to sell their goods to the 1 to 30 year old... and they compulsively purchase at Grocery Stores that have Restaurant prices, etc.

"'Everything is PR' has become the favorite phrase"

The long-term lessons of #Scientology #HeavensGate #Jonestown #FoxNews #CambridgeAnalytica and the #InternetResearchAgency #AlexJones is that there is very little watching your back once someone unlocks a story pattern to #MindFuck you into believing lies and deception.

Very few Media Practitioners will stand up for your mental health, they will play along to their #EdwardBernays advertising income sources.

#MonoMythWarfare

The real leap forward of "I AM LOVING IT!" sandwich worship messaging was Surkov sometime before 2012. The book "Almost Zero" demonstrates to me that this is a practical man, with Tupac photograph on his office desk. Surkov demonstrates #PublicRelations / #EdwardBernays #TorchesOfFreedom in "Almost Zero", and Surkov subtext shows the fault-lines of the Joyce-defined #MonoMyth - "I'm LOVING IT" applied not to a factory sandwich, but to Putin. Surkov + #CambridgeAnalytica - we never stood a chance

#EdwardBernays bragging about how he convinced #Women to smoke toxic cigarettes on #EasterSunday in #NYC. Bernays is the cousin of #SigmundFreud and hired Dr. #AABrill in NYC to learn how to manipulate crowds of women to behave like men for the profits of the cigarette industry. How to get free newspaper "go viral" coverage all over the USA.

A medical doctorate of psychology / psychiatry endorsed mass manipulation of women to profit male factory owners.

A key split in the divorce of #SigmundFreud and #CarlJung is organized #Religion / #Mythology #PublicDream interpretation call-out.

Of course, it's also noteworthy that Sigmund Freud's #NYC cousin #EdwardBernays centralized power and wealth by exploiting the #PublicDream / #MassMan (#McLuhan term) / Mass Mind (#HowardBloom term)...

Freud took on HALF the work of Jung and Freud did not have any problems with Dr. #AABrill helping Bernays exploit entire populations! Mind-fucking crowds.
