The disaster of manufacturing consent in the Matrix
by Jon Rappoport
March 15, 2013
This article may seem to be about abstract theory, but it isn’t. It’s about how populations are viewed by psychological-operations specialists.
More importantly, it’s about how people are led to accept substitutes for their own highest ideals. The substitutes look like the real thing, but they’re actually very well drawn cartoons.
The most successful long-terms psyops are aimed at getting people to accept “good things, wonderful things.” Except, it turns out that these things magically evaporate and leave populations in the lurch.
Imagine for a moment that every crisis we now find ourselves in, every form of pollution and poisoning and every war and every mass destruction of life…was preceded and precipitated by…a psyop that looked like a golden destiny of fulfillment.
Okay. Let’s begin.
At some point, every intelligent human develops their own reality.
This reality isn’t usually a clear, articulated, and overall position. It tends to be a hodge-podge of linked ideas, preferences, feelings, principles, and morals.
Nevertheless, consciously and unconsciously, the person refers to it often, and uses it as a tool with which to navigate through life.
In the Matrix, there is pressure to have people connect their realities to each other. Why? Because groups can thus be created. Groups are easier to compromise than individuals.
We get the concept of hooked ideas. A hooked idea is one which will entice people to merge their realities into One. The hooked idea can be expressed as a slogan, a so-called meme, a principle. It is introduced by people who work psyops.
A psyop is a campaign to herd people into a place where their individual realities overlap.
For the propagandist, there is the eternal search for the good, better, and best hooking idea, the one that will collect the greatest possible number of people under one roof.
