Social engineering

“The Iron Triangle”. I have to give credit to Ben Shapiro using the moniker in this context. In my mind, an iron triangle is the perfect portrayal of the relationship between the DNC, mass media and social media used to aggrandize a broken ideology; more importantly, to silence and demonize its rivals. Powerful, robust and impenetrable; cold and unmoving.

Kennedy Democrats no longer exist (or might as well not, as they have no power to influence government anymore). The optimism for peace and coexistence that once permeated the party has been overcome by the divide-and-conquer strategy of the Obama administration, thickly masked under the guise of “hope and change”. The Democrats (Marxists) of today have only strengthened their social engineering capacity since the demoralization of the Bush administration.

When I talk about the “Deep State”, this is what I mean. I’m not alluding to any secret plan to deceive the people on a grand scale, such as by manufacturing war and disease. I don’t think there was some kind of stratagem behind the Kennedy assassination or the Reagan shooting. In fact I don’t think the Deep State, as I define it here, really existed until the 1990s, when the Clintons came under public scrutiny for immoral and corrupt acts. It’s my belief that’s when the seeds of the organization were originally planted – not necessarily by the Clintons, but under their watch. It was an attractive way to redirect the public consciousness away from moral expectations of their representatives.

At first it was just about diversion from scandal, but as the party became focused on that goal, their idealism withered. The moderate supporters of the Democrat party began to live through the party’s past glory and did not question the defunct politics of their leaders.

So while you might call me a conspiracy theorist, it’s only in the context of my belief that we should not overlook strong evidence of widespread, organized corruption. History tells us that. There is a powerful political force here that seeks to build their own power and control through a web of social engineering affecting every aspect of normal American life. News, business, education, entertainment… socialization… personal relationships.

Money talks. That’s the only way I can describe how the news media was bought piece by piece by a bloated elite ruling class. At the most general level, there are two kinds of wealthy people in America. The self-made (or within one generation so), who focus on maintaining their wealth through good business sense and appealing to common interests. These primarily encompass the elite right. Then there are those who are born-wealthy or spoiled, who forgot from whence they came. Their strategy, more nefarious than their cohorts, is to keep themselves in power through popularity. These are the elite left; now the benefactors of big media. They took a chance on developing and purchasing their media outlets, and the brilliant investment paid off in dividends.

Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past.”

– George Orwell

The Deep State began to rise to power under the Clintons and their power increased exponentially with the information age under the Obama administration. (The only hurdle they encountered after that was the jarring bit of reality America experienced on 9/11, and the bonds of patriotism and brotherhood that followed; had the strategy to demonize Bush not already been in motion, this might have otherwise thwarted the goal of the Deep State, as it brought our people together in a wonderfully inclusive show of brotherhood. But as we know, the possibility of true unity was short lived. The Deep State was focused on division in the name of “diversity”.)

Under Obama, negativity toward the right began to dominate the news cycle. Populism under Obama was based not on the common interest of the country, but of very distinct interest groups, less patriotic and more separatist in nature. The Deep State decided it would be easier to paint Republicans with the broad brush of greed and wealth, whilst simultaneously encouraging their audience to achieve the same results – not through the capitalistic method of hard work and self-sufficiency, but through guilt, threats and manipulation. Morals and family values took a nose dive as the far left became convinced they were the center of their little worlds, and thus whatever behavior made them feel good should naturally be accepted by the rest of society. The impact of their behavior on civil society was immaterial. If they did not receive a positive response from everyone, society was attacking their very being, and retaliation was necessary to achieve “acceptance”. There was no compromise in this regard.

There are certain kinds of control under which people feel perfectly free.

B.F. Skinner

This is the problem with too much positive reinforcement. We fall into ourselves and it becomes the only place we are comfortable. This is one of the reasons we stopped interacting on a personal level, and social media has just taken off like a rocket. The very nature of the beast is vanity and lust for attention. From the beginning we had our “MySpace” (later Facebook) pages on the internet, where we could post filtered photos of ourselves, self-indulgent descriptions of our best and most likable qualities, every positive aspect of our everyday lives and relationships, embellishing whenever possible, always leaving out the bad stuff. Everyone was simultaneously self-conscious, envious and hungry for validation (“likes”). Have you ever watched “The Social Dilemma” on Netflix? I’m not a big Netflix fan, but I highly recommend it for the insight into Big Tech…

By the time Obama took office, the iron triangle was in place. Mass media, social media and the DNC working symbiotically with the same endgame. The media moguls could be bought. News is a business, not a public service, and it thrives on the emotional and psychological human response to conflict and uncertainty. Social media thrives on debate, provocation and (especially in the case of Twitter), pure hostility.

Through these channels, seeds of the political end game could be implanted as “progress” in the minds of the people. Not only through this assault on the elite right (through the exploitation of envy) and conservative ideology (through the exploitation of vanity and self-righteousness), but through a slow creep of ideas that directed the people, unknowingly and quickly, toward a socialist ideology they would never have supported half a generation earlier. A good example of this is Obamacare. Americans would never accept socialist health care; forcing the concept of “equal access” to health care as a human right enabled the left to impose single-payer healthcare in the name of humanitarian progress. The modern concept of progressivism is nothing more than a very effective method of subliminally controlling the populous.
