adverts, brainwashing, Mass psychosis, political propaganda.

Constant mass media repetition of "Get the jab, or else!" is having a "collective psychosis" effect on us. 

Have a read of my layman's n intro into the subject first before watching the video (see below)

Adverts - Call it what you like,  advertising has been around a long time, probably since the Industrial Revolution, when people made products to sell en masse to the market. 

In the '60s in the advertising world, the tried-and-tested adage was "Tell a person 7 times that they need this product, and they start believing it".  I was doing an commercial Hons in Advertising and Consumer behaviour (or mass brainwashing) at the time, so sought out some advice from the Head of Psychology on how to counter this phenomenon.

He said it was very difficult, explaining how the sub-conscious was affected by repetition, and that the best method was to say out loud the reason(s) why you did not want the product being advertised to you. (There are probably other methods of corrective psychology or psychosis today).

This practice worked and I remained unaffected by advertising, by the want or need to buy any unnecessary product. But it annoys my wife intensely when I end up arguing with a televised advert or a point of view which is false or which I don't agree with.

Political Propaganda

Once you control the media, or they control you, or even worse, they are all owned and/or controlled by the same people, then we have a major problem, not dissimilar to the Nazi propaganda machine that operated in Germany and Austria. 

Going deeper into the subject (aren't we deep enough in the pooh yet?):

Mass formation psychosis is when a large part of a society  focuses its attention to a leader(s) or a series of events and their  attention focuses on one small point or issue. Followers can be  hypnotized and be led anywhere, regardless of data proving otherwise. 

A key aspect of the phenomena is that the people they identify as the  leaders - the one's that can solve the problem or issue alone (not that we have much choice) – they will follow that leader(s) regardless of any new information or data. Furthermore, anybody who questions the  leader’s narrative are attacked and disregarded. (Sounds very familiar)

There are four  key components needed for an environment to experience a mass formation  psychosis: 

• lack of social bonds or decoupling of societal connections,  
• lack of sense-making (things don’t make sense), 
• free-floating anxiety,  and 
• free-floating psychological discontent. 

Free-floating anxiety is a  general sense of uneasiness that is not tied to any particular object or  specific situation..
