Murray Rothbard | The function of the statist ideologists

“The function of the statist ideologists is to weave the false set of Emperor’s clothes, to convince the public of a massive double standard: that when the State commits the gravest of high crimes it is really not doing so, but doing something else that is necessary, proper, vital, and even – in former ages – by divine command. The age-old success of the ideologists of the State is perhaps the most gigantic hoax in the history of mankind” Murray Rothbard, “The Ethics of Liberty | Die Ethik der Freiheit”…

Caitlin Johnstone | power-serving worldview

“The predominant reason mainstream news reporters say things that aren’t true is because in order to be hired by mainstream news outlets, you need to jack your mind into a power-serving worldview that is not based in truth.” Caitlin Johnstone “Der Hauptgrund dafür, dass die Mainstream-Nachrichtenreporter Dinge berichten, die nicht wahr sind, liegt darin, dass sie, um von den Mainstream-Nachrichtensendern angeworben zu werden, ihre Denkweise mit der herrschenden Weltanschauung gleichschalten müssen, welche nicht auf der Wahrheit beruht.” Nützliche und hilfreiche Links…

James H. Barry | Its news-gatherers, I sincerely believe, only obey orders

“You wish to know my “confidential opinion as to the honesty of the Associated Press.” My opinion, not confidential, is that it is the damndest, meanest monopoly on the face of the earth–the wet-nurse for all other monopolies. It lies by day, it lies by night, and it lies for the very lust of lying. Its news-gatherers, I sincerely believe, only obey orders.” James H. Barry | Herausgebers der Wochenzeitung San Francisco Star, zitiert von Upton Sinclair (The Brass Check, Kapitel 59, S. 381.) “Sie möchten meine “vertrauliche Meinung über…

Upton Sinclair | whereby industrial autocracy keeps its control over political democracy

„Journalism is one of the devices whereby industrial autocracy keeps its control over political democracy; it is the day-by-day, between-elections propaganda, whereby the minds of the people are kept in a state of acquiescence, so that when the crisis of an election comes, they go to the polls and cast their ballots for either one of the two candidates of their exploiters.“ Upton Sinclair „Der Journalismus ist eines der Mittel, durch die eine wirtschaftliche Autokratie die Demokratie kontrolliert; es ist die alltägliche Propaganda zwischen den Wahlen, durch die das Bewusstsein…

Joost A.M. Meerloo | Ready made opinions

“Ready made opinions can be distributed day by day through the press, radio, and so on, again and again, till they reach the nerve cell and implant a fixed pattern in the brain. Consequently, guided public opinion is the result, according to Pavlovian theoreticians, of good propaganda technique, and the polls [are] a verification of the temporary successful action of the Pavlovian machinations on the mind.” Joost A.M. Meerloo “Vorgefertigte Meinungen können Tag für Tag über die Presse, das Radio usw. verbreitet werden, immer und immer wieder, bis sie die…

Joost A.M. Meerloo | hammering noises of arguments and propaganda

“The continual intrusion into our minds of the hammering noises of arguments and propaganda can lead to two kinds of reactions. It may lead to apathy and indifference, the I-don’t-care reaction, or to a more intensified desire to study and to understand. Unfortunately, the first reaction is the more popular one.” Joost A.M. Meerloo “Das ständige Eindringen des hämmernden Lärms von Argumenten und Propaganda in unsere Köpfe kann zu zwei Arten von Reaktionen führen.

Manly P. Hall | when the state governs, he is ruled by fear.

“When the mob governs, man is ruled by ignorance; when the church governs, he is ruled by superstition; and when the state governs, he is ruled by fear. Before men can live together in harmony and understanding, ignorance must be transmuted into wisdom, superstition into an illuminated faith, and fear into love.” Manly P. Hall “Wenn der Pöbel regiert, wird der Mensch von Unwissenheit beherrscht; wenn die Kirche regiert, wird er vom Aberglauben beherrscht; und wenn der Staat regiert, wird er von Angst beherrscht.

Joost A.M. Meerloo | master of the mind

“He who dictates and formulates the words and phrases we use, he who is master of the press and radio, is master of the mind.

Karl Rove | We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality

“People like you are still living in what we call the reality-based community. You believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality. That’s not the way the world really works anymore. We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you are studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors, and you, all of you, will be left to just study what…

Yuval Noah Harari | flooding people with irrelevant information

“In the past, censorship worked by blocking the flow of information. In the twenty-first century, censorship works by flooding people with irrelevant information. […] In ancient times having power meant having access to data. Today having power means knowing what to ignore.” Yuval Noah Harari (Homo Deus: A History of Tomorrow) “In der Vergangenheit hat Zensur durch Abblocken des Informationsflusses gewirkt. Im 21.Jahrhundert wirkt Zensur durch die Flutung mit irrelevanten Informationen. So wissen die Leute nicht mehr, auf was sie sich eigentlich fokussieren sollen.

David McGowan | The Moon Landing is essentially the adult version of Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy.

“[The Moon Landing] is essentially the adult version of Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. What primarily motivates them is fear. But it is not the lie itself that scares people; it is what that lie says about the world around us and how it really functions. For if NASA was able to pull off such an outrageous hoax before the entire world, and then keep that lie in place for four decades, what does that say about the control of the information we receive? What does…
