Point taken and yes, humanity is historically ripe with references to social engineering, mass manipulation and propaganda. This was evident in the past as well as today since political and economic agenda's are indeed shaped by the ruling elite. After reading Ellul's iconic work, Propaganda, I found no reason to ascribe to any collective truth since as Chomsky states so eloquently, consent for the masses is easily manufactured. We see that more today with mas media complicity as well.
