Ten strategies for manipulating people

The poorer strata should be denied access to mechanisms to understand the manipulation of their consent. The quality of education of the lower social classes should be as low or below average as possible, so that the gap between the education of the upper and lower classes remains insurmountable.

Here is a list of ten media manipulation strategies.

1) DIVERSION ATTENTION

Divert public attention from important issues to unimportant ones. To overwhelm the public with a flood of irrelevant information so that people do not think and gain basic knowledge in understanding the world.

2) CREATING PROBLEMS

This method is also called “problem-response-solution.” A problem should be created for a part of the public to respond to it, for example: to provoke and transmit violence with the intent, to make it easier for the public to accept the restriction of liberty, the economic crisis, or to justify the overthrow. welfare states.

3) THE SLOW PROCEDURE OF CHANGE

In order for the public to agree to an unacceptable measure, it should be introduced gradually, “teaspoonfully”, for months and years, and changes that could provoke resistance if implemented abruptly and in the short term would be implemented in small steps. changes over time without being aware of the changes.

4) DELAYING 

Another way to prepare the public for unpopular changes is to announce them much earlier in advance. People do not feel all the weight of change at once, because they are previously accustomed to the very idea of change. In addition, the “shared hope for a better future” facilitates their acceptance.

5) USING CHILDREN’S LANGUAGE

When addressing adults as speaking to children, we have two beneficial effects: the public suppresses its critical awareness and the message has a stronger effect on people. This suggestive mechanism is also widely used in advertising.

6) AWAKING THE EMOTIONS

Emotional abuse is a classic technique used to cause short circuits when judged reasonably. Critical consciousness is replaced by emotional impulses (anger, fear, etc.) The use of the emotional register allows access to the unconscious, so it is later possible to carry out ideas, desires, worries, fears or coercion at this level, or cause certain behaviors.

7) IGNORANCE

The poorer strata should be denied access to mechanisms to understand the manipulation of their consent. The quality of education of the lower social classes should be as low or below average as possible, so that the gap between the education of the upper and lower classes remains insurmountable.

8) MAGNIFYING THE STUPIDITY 

The public should be encouraged to accept mediocrity. It is necessary to convince people that (in, in fashion), it is desirable to be stupid, vulgar and ignorant. At the same time, resistance to culture and science should be provoked.

9) MAKING A FEELING OF GUILT

It is necessary to convince each individual that he or she is solely responsible for his or her own misfortune, due to scarce knowledge, limited abilities, or insufficient effort. Such an insecure and undervalued individual, burdened with a sense of guilt, will give up seeking the true causes of his position and rebelling against the economic system.

10) ABUSE OF KNOWLEDGE

The rapid development of science over the last 50 years has created a growing chasm between the knowledge of the public and those who own and use it, the ruling elite. The “system”, thanks to biology, neurobiology and practical psychology, has access to advanced knowledge of humans both physically and psychologically.
