Top-tier brainwashing techniques thread

He's somewhat of a step-by-step theory I've been pondering, stemming from speculation pertaining to media like the Harry Potter Series.

#1 Strongly assimilate a real world problem with a fictitious one.

#2 Create a context for that problem. the more compelling the context, the easier it is to convince.

#3 Tie the Issue with the context, and the context with an Ideology

#4 Create an appeal to Emotion, Logic or Humor that favor the Ideology. Strongly correlate the Ideology as being morally correct

#5 Repeat. Refine the appeal, remove or counter opposition, make use of convincing straw-men.

#6 Create a situation Which heightens the emotional appeals to a a fight of good versus evil

any suggestions for improvement?

Any brainwashing theories, methods or observations welcome

Children's movies are a perfect place for this.

We see it in Nazi Germany, where kids' books and movies had Jews as treacherous villains and honest, hardworking Germans as the good guys.

1950's America had communists as the bad guy in comic books, with patriotic FREEDOM loving American heroes saving the day.

Essentially children's media is a person's first taste of indoctrination. Political enemies and their values are planted as "bad" inside the child's head, and the agent's ideas are "good".

This kind of stuff is fairly obvious, and evident to most observers. Americans know Top Gun's forced patriotism is cheesy. But despite being on-the-nose, it's a very effective technique. Adults can easily see the bias in a movie, but kids? Their bullshit detector isn't calibrated yet, so they absorb whatever propaganda is being fed to them.

So the morals being presented are intertwined with the child's mind very early on. They feel like instinct. And they are-- they're a core part of the child's personality now, because the child grew up with them. The child thinks these morals have always been an important part of them-- but they were planted.

Media monopolies guarantee the nation's children are only exposed to one set of morals: the agent's. These morals are then internalized by a bunch of kids who go on to become puppets of the state, thinking it's their own moral choice.

In this way, the agent's political directives become the population's deeply cherished beliefs, and people will serve the agent with a genuine heartfelt passion.

One has to notice that star wars is a republican democratic propaganda product. Anti-monarchy propaganda product. The cat's out of the bag in second series of star wars (by production chronology). We learn about essential facts and circumstances which help us to understand real distribution of power and who plays what part.

First of all, we find out what's the initial cause of great inter-galactic war. War begun because inter-galactic senate raised taxes which haven't made trade guild too happy. And it started secet production of clones, drones, robots which were to serve the purpose of seizing power in the galaxy. It's very important discovery. Cause of war was excessive state control and fiscalism in politics of democratic authorities.

It's pretty typical, theres no villainy, wicked deeds that democratic authorities won't resort to in need of money.

Senat imposes taxes, rebellion breaks out, war. Of course i'm on the side of trade guild which protested against extreme galactic fiscalism.

Main heroine (called princess in the beginning) in second part chronologically is already called Mrs Senator. Who's next to her in galactic senate? Among others that biggest idiot from the first movie, jar-jar. Here it's subconsciousness manifesting, truth comes to light (although it's republican propaganda work).

That's the truth of democracies that senators and members of parliament are biggest idiots, those who guarantee their real patrons that they won't understand anything and will do anything that's expected from them.

Who is patron, the power behind the throne, who has the real power in galaxy.

It turns out that behind facade of democracy, behind senate, there's a circle of people leaded by rather short elderly gentleman and it's where real decisions are made. It's where politics is done. Senat only debates. Real decisions are made by Jedi Knights, KGB. Intergalactic KGB. With that short Yoda at the lead of it.

Even in that limited circle there's despotic rule. Yoda obviously can consult with the circle but in reality he arrives at the decisions himself. We're dealing here with KGB with the whole romantic legend added for coverup.

That it is in fact inter-galactic KGB there are lots of proofs. You remember the scene, whole sequence, young obi-wan with young skywalker enter some establishment. And there obi-wan does brain-washing of one of the clients, casually. He recommends him going home and thinking about his whole life. Brain washing, backstage decisions and pulling strings behind the facade of democracy. That's the world in star wars, that's the republic depicted in star wars.

If Jedi Knights are KGB then who's skywalker senior, later Lord Vader. He's a rebel. The only noble individual, only person who revolts against that system. Only man who's on the side of normal people and declares war on KGB. And because of that he has to be smeared by his adversaries. Authority hates people who break ranks, break conspiracy of silence and don't hold common front of traitors.

Narration shows us republican propaganda.

This propaganda work in fact tells us very much about real arrangement of power in world of demoracy. Back to first series by production chronology. What model is realized by skywalker junior story. It's story of pawlik morozow. Legend of soviet propaganda, he becames hero of soviet propaganda because he informs authorities on his own father, in kolkhoz, that he didn't hand over all the grain collected on field. Luke skywalker is pawlik morozow who after brain washing done by KGB he raises his hand to strike his own father.

That are the models and heroes in star wars.

One more thing. Who the power surround themselves with? (KGB authorities) Whose help they use? Criminals, smugglers. It's typical for every bolshevik revolution and for each democratic-revolutionary power. They have to appeal to underclass to crush the opposition - honest and normal people. That's the subconsciousness of star wars universe. It is it's hidden sense.

To play the devil's advocate, isn't this how all of the society's culture spread? You say that these morals are planted and yes I agree, but without them the mind is an absolute tabula rasa. Simply said all of you is a product of construction by external forces. Though of course we may argue that one kind of indoctrination is more beneficial to the individual and society than another. All in all, it comes down to your opinion, which is in itself formed by somebody.

What I'm trying to say is that calling it brainwashing is a bit extreme, but it's simply semantics anyway

Looking back, my post didn't fully convey what I meant.

It is easier to frame events, people and moral choices if you can embed framing tools into kids' heads from birth.

Systems of morality can be planted. Then most mainstream discussion of morals happens within these confines. Archetypical heroes and villains can be planted, then pulled out for the media spin theater. Putin is the cold Russian hitman. Trump is the spoiled bully. The school shooters who all fit the same "depressed white teenager with greasy hair" profile. The more one shapes these symbols, the more one shapes peoples' minds and therefore society.

The focus is on the control of symbols in the mind. You set up symbols, scenarios, personalities, etc. These are all tools to be used whenever you need them. If you plant these symbols in a child's head early, their personality assimilates it. There is nostalgia involved. The symbols are wedged into the culture, and over time become a genuine part of it.

Like you said though, all groups and individuals influence each other anyway. So the question is, how do you separate "good" and "bad" symbols, authentic or planted? That's a pretty complex discussion.

I treat it like a danger, however, because the monopolization that is occurring in the media right now is creating a system where the power of influence is being held by a select few entities. The elites have always made and normalized society's rules, but as the media power concentrates more and more densely, huge swaths of people will be influenced by narrower and narrower ideological bases. More people in front of the same puppet show of easily controllable, intimate-feeling symbols.

I've encountered this line of thinking just too often before. There are those who see no contradiction in "breaking up" popular media outlets, but are quite happy to set their narratives through state media, elementary education and public campaigns.

Media barons at least earn their influence through viewership. The same cannot be said for the self-righteous, who, in having failed the war of words, must find ways to force themselves on an audience.

Im not the guy youre replying to, but i think that he's saying that the other guy who's propagating his own view could be the one he's talking about in his quote. Innovation is out of the question if the other guy's "view" is not workable with conditions the other guy didn't account for.
