A former intelligence analyst, Stella Morabito, who grew up in a left-wing family and calls herself a “realist,” is speaking out about mass manipulation, political correctness and the transgender agenda.
Her writings at The Federalist got the attention of Rush Limbaugh back in June when he seemed fascinated by her piece on mass delusion. A subsequent related piece is here.
In this exclusive video interview with the Daily Caller News Foundation, she details how the left uses mass manipulation techniques to confuse Americans and grab power. She condemns conservatives for not even realizing the behavior modification techniques being employed in the political square, such as those encouraged by liberals such as Cass Sunstein, who wrote the book “Nudge” or George Lakoff.
It was a project of cultural Marxists to capture the mediating institutions in our culture for ideological gain – the media, Hollywood, pop culture, academia and more. “If you push an agenda to centralize power, you need mass ignorance and effective propaganda.”

Morabito says political correctness provides “a semantic fog where manipulation can occur under the guise of being fair or non-discriminatory.”
She details three tactics of the manipulation she observes. These include being subtle enough that people are not aware of the manipulation, changing our language to achieve thought control and the leverage of social isolation being used to force conformity to the elite’s narratives.
As for those who dissent from the elite’s orthodoxy or narratives, Morabito praises their courage. She mentions three positive possibilities of people who have the courage to be politically incorrect against the dominant narratives in this culture. First, such a neighbor or friend could embolden a like-minded person who is fearful, causing a positive “ripple effect.” Second, they could influence a “fence-sitter” by nudging deeper thinking, she says. And lastly, even if the listener disagrees and rejects your point of view, you may water down the stereotype or caricature made of those who hold core American principles.
Morabito continues by discussing the emergence of gender identity theorists who seek a gender-less society and maximum conformity in order to amass power. She discusses the newly-introduced Equality Act and how dangerous its scope is.
Near the end, she condemns Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner for living out how he subjectively imagines a woman’s life to be. She says this is merely part of the mass confusion where there is “more detachment from reality to make us think we’re happy.”
Ping. Gotta Run. Actually, gotta walk.

Liberalism is insidious. Not unlike termites, it destroys the structure of the house it inhabits.
Someone actually gets it.
I would go further: these various PC agendas may be pushed by elites only for the purpose of accumulating power. They may believe in absolutely none of them. Once they get the control that they crave, they could easily turn on the protected groups that they now claim to champion.
Bkmrk.
Thought control commissars.
I have been looking around lately for info on linguistics and have found to my horror that pretty much this field has been given over to the left. Rather than doing all the clarity seeking stuff that it is supposed to to, the entire field seems to have been hijacked into pushing very questionable agendas.
Linguistics has to be restored to clarity seeking.
It is very clever, a form of mass hypnosis, where we are asked to give up, to shun, longstanding cultural believes. Absurdity knows no bounds, as the progressives seek to strip us of everything natural and sane belief, while replacing it with their ideas that have only one purpose, to break down the structural foundations of American life.
For those of us who are not so easily hypnotized, the absurdity of leftist neo-cult theology seems so irrational that one need not take it serious. They say, we can no longer define what is male or female, we laugh and say, you must be joking.
But the joke is on us. We have vastly underestimated the stupidity of the masses who are now embracing every ridiculous leftist pronouncement and newly minted victim class, as quickly as they can be paraded in front of a camera, to inform us how insensitive, racist and mean spirited we have been, to not realize that Pygmy albino trans species peoples of the world have been victimized by old white christian men.
I have been feeling the urge to push back for sometime now. But I am reluctant to do so with my friends. Thats why I wrote “The Old White Guy Blues” and a new patriotic anthem, “If it's Gay and it's Ghetto then it's Good.” It gave me a creative outlet for expressing my frustration with the absurdity of a popular culture and political movement that is self loathing to the point of being suicidal.
“Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.”

Every time I hear “gay” as a euphemism for homosexual, I want to barf.
I've noted that also - and commented on in the various news comments section. Something happens or they want something to happen and it's as if a memo is (probably) circulated "Use these phrases". Suddenly that phrase is all over the media.
In the late 80s and early 90s, I did not have cable. In some areas, the national news on some networks would be broadcast on the hour, and on the 1/2 hour on others. That gave me the opportunity to watch 2 different networks.
I soon noticed a pattern. The networks broadcast basically the same news stories, maybe not in the same order. I also noticed that some of those broadcasts were almost the same word-for-word. I also noticed that the broadcast news nearly every week ran an infomercial for a new drug.
I realized, they were the same. Didn’t make any difference who the news-reader was or the network. They may have each broadcast one or two unique stories, but the bulk of the news was the same, which meant THEY were basically the same.
It is easiest to manipulate and target new people to the country and children/young adults.
Older Americans usually know what is what, so it is up to older people to shun the language and thought restrictions of political correctness and speak plainly and think and discern as a person of Western civilization would.
You can see why they are so intent on persecuting and dehumanizing Christians as haters and crazy people. Any conservative group they target and hate (from the family and it’s advocates to the tea party) is a pretty good indication that the group is upright and sane.
Cultural cleansing is what it is called. It does break down the targeted society as it erases it’s values, unity, memory and identity. Americans are most familiar with the thought control used against by the elite against the American Indians to erase their identity and memory.
Going through life not knowing who you are or where you came from, or worse, hating it, which means hating yourself, is awful. They are openly targeting whites and Christians - where the targeted Western thought identity reside. I feel for white young people who get taken in by this self hating identity. I have met plenty of them. Groups of people targeted in this way have high suicide and single parenthood rates.
It is more important than ever to pull white children out of leftist thought control arenas when they are young so they can get the bearings of a real and healthy identity.
Well she can’t condemn me. I’ve been talking about this exact thing often for years.
Oh and not just about the left. It applies to the leftists on FR pushing acceptance of and whitewashing the Romney situation to this day.
