These five rules of propaganda have been known for a long time, and they are certainly not original with myself. They can be found on the inetrnet through searches. Please send them around so that more people will be aware of them. Thank You.
The Five Rules of Propaganda
1. The rule of simplification - reducing all data to a simple confrontation between 'Good and Bad', 'Friend and Foe'.
2. The rule of disfiguration - discrediting the opposition by crude smears and parodies.
3. The rule of transfusion - manipulating the consensus values of the target audience for one's own ends.
4. The rule of unanimity - presenting one's viewpoint as if it were unanimous opinion of all right-thinking people: draining the doubting individual into agreement by the appeal of star-performers, by social pressure , and by 'psychological contagion'.
5. The rule of orchestration - endlessly repeating the same messages in different variations and combinations.
I’m not sure we can even believe half of what we see. There now exists technology that makes even visual experiences questionable. I turn to God for biblical truth and pray for discernment. God has given us reason and the ability to use logic. Common sense seems to be a thing of the past, but it’s still out there if one looks for it.
Once again, Erik, a post we needed to see, and we needed to see it today! I’ve always had as one of my life mantras, I don’t believe anything I read/hear and only half of what I see. This has magnitudes more impact now than in my youth with bots, AI, etc., and I talked about this with my husband last week. As in, watch any movie and tell me it doesn’t feel as if you are right there within the scene? What is real? What’s unreal? News could definitely be a movie. Remember Wag the Dog? Now, at this point in life, I might have a bit more trust in some reads...but, who definitively knows for sure? God tells us He is the one to trust. It’s a truth I’m relying upon more each day. 2024 will be a kaleidoscope of chaos in all the realms. God bless you.🙏🙏
I came from a substack where they not only don't believe in God, they show you why God cannot exist 'he's not an extraterrestrial, therefore one of those inferior creatures.' That one had me howling with laughter. Oh they are convinced that they are lemurians and a couple of other kinds. If you've ever seen a transhumanist (I have, it's why I can't find a horror movie that will scare me) they are a new kind of monster. Lizard-like. reptilian pedophiles.
I have read this previously, but have never experienced it. I believe truly that we all will have to choose how much we want to know, however, the God I believe in created the entirety with a word.🙏 and saved His people. Like the prophets of the Old Testament who tried to describe what they saw…and really couldn’t….that very well may be us at a future point….. I look forward to your inputs on posts! Makes me expand my thinking, too. Hmmm….God at work there, too? God bless.🙏🙏
Too much news overload. I don't believe a word of it. Wait a few days for things to calm down and then see what might be going on. Try to do normal things in your life and be with people you love. Don't jump to conclusions. Easier said than done.
When Erik asks ..."When you see a crowd of people protesting for Hamas and Palestine, demanding an Israeli cease fire, do you believe everything you see is real, organic?"
Erik, U mean like J6 organic? Fooled me once, shame on KM DS Vampire Bastards! Fooled me 2x, Hang the Bitches! Ever since MSM jumped on 45 for saying the word, Hydroxchloroquinne, I have been totally done w/ MSM. All of em are lying Fake Jew Satanists! Yrs ago I enjoyed going to the circus. Damn these bozos for making it a non-stop nightmare.
It can't ALL be fake news, Catherine. If that were so, then we would only have to negate the predicate (i.e. know they are always lying) and we would know the truth.
The fact is that they mix in verifiably true stories, lies, and made-up fantasy in such a way that nobody can (easily, anyway) know what is really going on.
[They] mess with our minds like that because a confused mind is much easier to control. But it stops working once we know what they are doing. And if they do it often enough, we wise up to what is happening.
That is the point of Erik's piece. We are awake and questioning everything, and those not yet awake are being jarred into an unstable state of mind, from which the only way out is to question what we are seeing in an attempt to clarify the schizophrenic 'reality' [they] attempt to portray. That requires the victim to wake up, and think with discernment. That is [their] greatest fear; but when you are a one-trick pony you must accept the fact that eventually, your audience will no longer be fooled.
Unfortunately for [them], that is where we are today.
O LORD, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me. But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child is my soul within me. O Israel, hope in the LORD from this time forth and forevermore.
They have long used Chaos and lies to manipulate emotions. To make us question who we are and what we believe in. When we are in a state of fear, anger and hatred they can manipulate our thoughts and perceptions to a greater degree... with ease... not to mention evil feeds off this like gluttonous swine. Being closer to God is necessary... He protects our hearts and minds and gives us discernment. We were awakened early and now we are warriors training for what will come soon enough. God bless you. Stand strong wearing the Armor of God... My prayers are with all for strength and discernment.

Funny how no one ever brings up the fact the Nikki Haley is NOT a 'natural born citizen' (born of two parents that were themselves born in the USA) per our Constitution, and therefore, is not eligible to be President or VP. Same with Vivek Ramaswamy. Haley and Ramaswamy were born in the US to parents that were still citizens of India. The two are anchor babies. Not eligible to run.

Sage advice from Eric. I too confess to having the occasional bout of narrative fatigue.
It’s important for us to bear in mind that, in an information war, practically everything we see and hear is fair game.
In a conventional war, it’s relatively straightforward to monitor who’s winning and who’s losing. In a narrative or information war that’s impossible for the normie mind to discern, no arguments there.
Similarly, however, it’s often virtually impossible for even the most observant anon brain to understand in practical terms what’s actually happening.
Given that, it’s completely natural for even the best informed experts to get down in the dumps from time to time.
Psychologists have coined a term to describe a destructive phenomenon which occurs in every human. They call it the “chattering monkey” brain.
A psychologist once explained that our brain is constantly processing data (NOT necessarily information). In people who are overworked or over stressed, the mind becomes acutely aware of maelstroms of brain data. It’s like we are hearing our brain talking to us.
The key is to understand that, in those situations, what the brain is sending to you is nonsensical gibberish. It’s like someone pushed the play button on a never endingly confusing stream of directionless chatter.
The key is to be able to distinguish between mindless chatter and useful information. You simply cannot do that if you lack sufficient rest and a healthily diverse brain diet.
All of this to explain that it’s mandatory for all of us to take time away from the battleground. Doesn’t matter if you don’t feel exhausted. Because by the time you feel exhausted it’s already kinda late. The door for depression to enter your thoughts opened before you were even aware that something was wrong.
Be preemptively mindful. Constantly. And be ruthlessly protective of your own mental health.
Have a great weekend and happy Thanksgiving in advance to all.
Excellent insights, Pluribus. Pondering this: "It’s important for us to bear in mind that, in an information war, practically everything we see and hear is fair game.", and it occurs to me that this is true with all the "health scare" stuff constantly being thrown at us. I've been struggling with a very sore shoulder requiring physical therapy, plus high blood pressure and trying to find the right medication. Even though I am a Christian and know the Lord is in control, I think my stress level has been greatly increased by the constant "our food is poison, our water is poison, they are spraying stuff in the air, we are all full of parasites, every prescription drug is poison" and on and on! STOP! I just can't investigate all this stuff. It's too much. So....wondering if some or most of that is total BS to freak us all out???
I think you nailed it. In my opinion, most of the health scare advertising (which is exactly what it is) is clickbait.
I occasionally fall victim to it myself, especially during late night YouTube adventures!
In the end we have to accept that there are limits to how much we can control. It’s one thing to be familiar with the various reasonable health threats out there.
It’s quite another to be talked into feeling like there’s some immediate action we can take to prevent whatever bad outcome is currently being claimed.
In my own life I’ve made it a priority to know, given my age, on a regular basis (twice a year) exactly what my own health statistics are. If they’re within normal ranges, I try not to obsess about any of it.
That being said, I’ve also been lucky enough to have the time to research and understand that there is one gold standard in personal health: eat fresh as much as possible and avoid processed anything.
I feel that is enough for me. Each of us has to decide, given our own health challenges, what’s appropriate for “me”.
Obviously we have all collectively and painfully learned, since 2020, about all the weaknesses and shortcomings of our medical, pharmaceutical and agribusiness industries.
Some (many?) of us have lost family and friends to these weaknesses. As a societal group, I suspect that MAGA is better aware than most of the real state of the American public health system.
Many of the smartest medical mavericks in the world made their careers during the plandemic, and were rightly celebrated by MAGA for their courage and brilliance.
Unfortunately, their messages succeeded so well that, in a way, their job is done. But they are human.
They kind of got used to the adulation and hero treatment.
As a result, some of them are still in panic mode. And of course they have been joined by legions of the usual grifters and con artists.
Welcome to America 😏 - caveat emptor.
And, finally, as a societal group, MAGA is taking unprecedented political action to fix our sick system, by carefully assessing who’s good, and who’s bad.
We are then translating that into becoming one of the most powerful political movements the world has ever seen. I personally feel confident that we, collectively, are on the right track.
I hope your shoulder recovers quickly. As a veteran of many orthopedic treatments and tons of physical therapy myself (over the years) you have my sincere commiseration.
The regenerative ability of the human body is truly extraordinary and, in my opinion, divinely ordained. Even as we age, somehow our bodies keep going.
Stay well, recover soon and be kind to yourself. 🙂👍🇺🇸
Seems folks are far too eager to pounce on emotional takes rather than factual ones, and are easily convincing others to do the same, who, with nary a thought but their own emotional reaction, do so.
Case in point - Flying the China flag this past week during President Xi's visit. It is correct Protocol, is it not, to fly a visiting statesman's flag of his or her country? A video of a uniformed military officer has surfaced who is holding China's flag during Xi's entrance, with Biden, into a building. Folks lost their minds over it. The Nation's Flag flies higher, always, but the visiting country's flag still is allowed to fly during the visit. Or am I wrong here?
Either way, Newsom still comes off as a complete jackass for ONLY caring about SanFran for a one off.
On a side note, Trudeau wasn't allowed anywhere near Xi, as per Xi, so he was busy checking out the "lil potatoes" at the local supermarket AND insulting the Idaho potato cuz it was dirty and smaller than the Canadian potato. *insert face palm here with a loud exasperated "FAAACK." This of course, AFTER showing off his damn Golden Gate socks to Newsom. (Does it ever end with this guy???) By the way, Xi's nickname for him was actually "Little Potato" in Chinese, which the entire liberal party in Canada praised him for in the House of Commons, until they realized what it actually meant in English! Not as bad as them actually giving TWO standing ovations to an SS ukrainian nazi in Parliament, but still...looked good on em!
As for the Panama, THIS Canadian knew absolutely NOTHING of this ESG loving First Quantum Mining company until this story broke out. As I watched the guy hold his weapon and fling it about like the end of a garden hose, the video immediately goes to a covered and blurred out dead guy laying on the street, and then this gun toting old guy getting loaded into a cop car, UNCUFFED, after shooting a gun into a crowd. Internet dummies immediately starting using his picture as a "way to deal with eco-protestors blockading roadways" hero. I'm sitting here going, who the hell gets loaded into a cop car uncuffed after shooting people?? Then Matt's Truth hit folks square betwixt the lookers. I'm hoping many felt stupid jumping onto a bandwagon they knew nothing of! Needless to say, these fingers did a rapid fire of this truth bomb as far and wide as the Universe would let them, including to the very ones investigating Trudeau's Billions Dollar Green Slush Fund going on right now. PS...the CEO of that Fund 'resigned' at the beginning of this week when it was discovered she had lined her own pockets with a few hundred grand, cuz she could. Getting back to the beginning of this paragraph, Canadians didn't even KNOW this company existed! Thank goodness for that "17th" of Dec 'referendum vote.' Q uite the date indeed!
Considering the last few months (after years of serious WTF moments) and the extreme roller coaster tidal wave of emotional responses to almost everything being presented right now, this middle of nowhere hick of a chick has decided to pop up some corn, make vast quantities of coffee and watch "The Perfect Storm" work its way across the lands, drenching The People with reality. Of course, being the vocal Watcher that I am, comments are definitely made - everywhere - but only after a few days have passed because the Truth is coming out faster than it ever did before, and these Truths of the Matters, matter. Plus, after the last 4 years, I'm just too damn tired to have instant knee jerk reactions to anything.
Tis always better to wait for the 'other side of the story.'
Great article Erik and great advice! Perfect timing too, I would say!

It would be good to get them posted in at least the Civics classroom at your local school. Good luck with that.

Or TMI Too Much Information, it means the same thing. That's why my television's mute button has the 'mute' wording rubbed off I use it too much.
Amen to everything you just posted. It's hard to do but we must learn to do this for our own sanity.
Amen Erik!
We have been called into this battle and so long as we Trust In God We the People will prevail.
MSM = LIES and I choose not to watch a single minute of it.
Not having a Speaker at the point of Oct 7 launch has resulted in a much better outcome.
Keep it coming.
God Wins!
God Bless!!!

'Course I'm not talking 'bout u, Erik ... TY 4 being Lighthouse in the media eternal night!

I believe everything is FAKE NEWS if its on any network News station or globally owned by the Monopoly. I try not to be a FOOL!

Bill, it's up to us to discern which is fake (99% usually) and which isn't. The normies will keep playing their 'the ETs will save us' game and die.
O LORD, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are not raised too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me. But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child is my soul within me. O Israel, hope in the LORD from this time forth and forevermore.
