Read the book by Bernays, entitled “Propaganda.”

It’s purpose was actually quite benign: The office in the Vatican was created to offset the Protestant movement.

It was only refined to mass media during WWI; and then refined as “advertising” during the 1920s. Anyone who took an advertising class in college should have read the book and understand the persuasive “art.”

Honestly, anyone who understands the basics can see through the BS on both sides. Because it com’s from both sides.

Founded? In any case, conditioning and propaganda are not brainwashing if the washing part has any meaning, as it was meant originally in the 50s when the Communists in Korea attempted their transformative practices of xǐnăo.
