Great piece! It was exactly what Edward Berneys and Sigmund Freud found in their research on how to manipulate the masses, and that was in the 30’s and has been used in PR and Propaganda ever since. Don’t give them facts and figures, give them Fear, then you can do what you want. Example – Weapons of Mass Destruction then the invasion of Iraq when knowingly there were no WMD existing there.
