If the American people elect a conservative president, his administration will have to eradicate climate change references from absolutely everywhere." — former deputy chief of staff of USAID under Trump
everyone should read that book Propaganda by Eddie Bernays
it goes deeper than just one-sided stories–there’s a specific reason, even back in 2015, one of the first things trump started doing was demonizing the press, with “fake news” and “enemy of the people” etc. if GOP takes over (whether by election or otherwise), there will be no more news outlet that isn’t run by the state
edit: i feel like it’s worth adding-- bernays’s book was pretty much a guidebook for goebbels’s nazi propaganda machine
In the 1920s, Joseph Goebbels became an avid admirer of Bernays and his writings – despite the fact that Bernays was a Jew. When Goebbels became the minister of propaganda for the Third Reich, he sought to exploit Bernays’ ideas to the fullest extent possible. For example, he created a “Fuhrer cult” around Adolph Hitler.
here is a profile of hitler “as his associates knew him”
His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.
sound familiar? i sure hope so
If you want to spend a weekend looking at the entire set of videos ProPublica received from Project2025, see here.
looks like some scientology-tier batshitinsanity
No, no the republiQans are a cult
. . . Wait . . .
Trump has tried to distance himself from Project 2025, falsely saying that he knew nothing about it and had “no idea who is behind it.” In fact, he flew on a private jet with Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, which leads Project 2025. And in a 2022 speech at a Heritage Foundation event, Trump said, “This is a great group and they’re going to lay the groundwork and detail plans for exactly what our movement will do and what your movement will do when the American people give us a colossal mandate to save America.”
So either he lied, or is suffering cognitive decline such that he can’t remember two years ago.
No more of this “falsely claimed” garbage.
