Publisher's summary

What if there are identifiable shortcuts your brain utilizes to create settled beliefs in small local communities, and what if those shortcuts could be “hacked” in a technological society to influence you in ways you can’t easily perceive?

While many are prone to think of propaganda as lies or distortions, there are techniques crafted and refined since the early 1900s that make that simplistic notion laughable.

Your ignorance of these techniques and the idea bullies use them give them vast power over your future, your finances, and your children.

Idea bullying is one group’s ability to win consistently in the marketplace of ideas. With enough money, well-connected friends, and the techniques just mentioned no other ideas can compete.

Democracy becomes calcified in orthodoxy—one idea to rule them all. Historically, this has been called manufacturing of consent, crystallizing public opinion, public relations, and just plain old “propaganda.”

Learn how the roots of stagecraft and story narrative have displaced an objective search for truth, and why this abuse of language is always the first sign of tyranny.
