I wonder how long Disinformation Studiers will be able to stay at it, if the petrodollar system collapses thanks to the recent Chinese and Russian initiatives? When America is no longer a rich country - more accurately, when Americans finally realize they aren't really a rich country anymore - such luxuries as Caroline Orr Bueno, PhD might not be something people are eager to pay for.

Journalists, reporters, PR hacks, politicians and bureaucrats were conspicuously omitted from PhD ("Peckerhead") Buenos' list of misinformation experts, yet they are the world's leading authorities on public deception and deliberate omission is their principle means of deceit. (It's the Pfizer/CDC method.)

"McDonald's and "public health" don't even belong in the same sentence, but this didn't stop the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) from enlisting the fast food giant to promote its COVID-19 public health education campaign."

Wow! It's really hard to believe that people are so lacking in humility as to think their opinion on matters is truth. And that they will use the power of the state to crush opposing opinions, for now...they will eventually start imprisoning wrong-thinkers. I've seen this show before.

Meanwhile, damage to the planet for mining the minerals to make batteries, later toxic dead batteries, and crashing of the electric grid shall be deemed misinformation. The destruction of a natural life because of this dirty business shall be considered malformation. Disagree, and you get on an FBI terrorist watch list.

When the revolution comes, anyone who has that smug look as a profile picture gets twenty lashes.

Ignorance is more dangerous than evil, because it's unpredictable.

"... psychologists, computer scientists, sociologists, engineers, philosophers, mathematicians, behavioral scientists, military scholars, historians, political scientists, linguists, and more"? Compartmentalization leads to ignorance. I possess a pretty steady background in all these disciplines, and when I take them together, it is clear that "fighting disinformation" is a psyop. Once "experts" gain control, they are entitled to use power against everyone. Well, as the article is also stating, it's happening...

I have a thought that I cannot express well.

Isn't all this evidence that it is impossible that Darwinian natural selection explains anything about the so called "human psychology"?

Let me explain: they are telling us that they have developed very refined techniques of both individual and mass manipulation of thoughts.

They also pretend that they are exploiting the pre-existing traits and tendencies that evolution determined us to have in our minds.

They also tell us that these traits are impossible to change, because they are "hardwired" in our DNA.

And they are trying to change human behavior deeply, long term.

Which means that if they really believe in evolution, they also believe that they are capable of undoing it. But if they could then it is not "hardwired" anywhere. Heredity is another thing, not immutable. Which means the assumptions of their experiments are false. And their techniques have no scientific explanation, even if they work (are they really working, or part of the global fraud is to create the illusion that they work, that these guys really know what they are doing?)

And if their techniques don't work or are not as realiable as they seem now... well, maybe a real black swan event is coming at them and they can't protect from it.

I would like to compress this thought in one or two sentences, without conditionals.

I sometimes think about the intellectuals of the mid 18th century, the guys who created our current disaster, like Rousseau, Helvetius, D'Holbach, D'Alembert, Montesquieu, Kant, Lavoisier, Condorcet, and many others. Did any of these men ever imagine all the stupidities and cultural erosion that their ideas would have

I don't ask about the theft and loss of life suffered by everyone in the last 250 years, because it seems clear that most of the intellectuals do not care at all about people suffering violence.

The past cannot be changed. But why do the intellectuals of today think their new ideas will have a happier result? Pathological optimism?
