Climate change activists took private jets to (all) their ‘conferences’.

Limousine Liberals have been around almost as long as Limousines.

Nice video, but I’m not sure those Right-Wing-Death-Squads were really all bad.

I mean what the fuck, was Latin America just supposed to bend over and take it in the butt from the collectivist COMMIES?

Hard to believe, but Butler was a fraud and War is a Racket was a form of LIMITED HANGOUT.

The Protocols of Zion is also a real doozy.

Bernays’ ability to use his uncle Sigmund Freud’s theories to both promote those theories with the masses and to develop the pseudoscience industry itself through public relations campaigns to make people aware of their inner feelings and start paying attention to their wants and desires, not just their needs.

If you know nothing else about Edward Bernays, know he grasped enough of the truth in his uncle’s psychobabble to manipulate a lot of opinions in a lot of ways. He dabbled in everything.

“[No less a judge than Ernest Hemingway famously declared that the book marked the beginning of American literature: “There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since.”]”

I’m only a gardener now, but someone who knows about words and meanings might ask how a guy named Hemingway planted the seeds for changes in the culture which he chose to portray through his really powerful writings. Who gave him that power?

Was society primed for the themes Hemingway introduced and promoted by the Edward Bernays method of giving him special status for being noticed by Nobel?

Edward Bernays belief you could control the minds of the masses if you could just capture their attention and hold it. What was it about Huckleberry that continues to perturb us?
