Great compilation here @krnel, I also believe that problem-reaction-solution is a consistent mechanism of control with manufactured crisises that bring about the predetermined 'solutions'.
Whether it's a pretext for war or the ushering in of economic austerity policies, the result is difficult and trouble times ahead for the lower classes. and opportunities for the ruling class. We're certainly pawns to be manipulated as the world is shaped by those who control the public discourse and create these narratives.
Great piece as usual! Resteeming this one.
Thank you for the appreciation and support :) The only way to stop being manipulated to know that we are being manipulated, and that only happens when people learn how they can be manipulated and what those methods of manipulation are. We often can't see something if we're not aware it's possible or real. Knowledge often underlies perception, since not everything is visible ;)
