“A German philologist reflected in 1954 that Nazi propaganda kept the people continuously distracted with “continuous changes and ‘crises,’” as well as the “machinations of [ . . . ] ‘national enemies,’ without and within,” leaving “no time to think about these dreadful things that were growing, little by little, all around us,” paving the way for the descent into barbarism (cited in Mayer, 2017, pp. 167–8). Similar is true today: Western propaganda barrages the population with crisis after crisis, enemy after enemy, e.g. terrorism, financial crisis, the “climate emergency,” the threat of “pandemics,” Russia/Ukraine, the specter of nuclear war, the “cost of living” crisis, Israel/Palestine, and on and on. The population does not notice the global technocratic coup gradually unfolding, or consider where it might lead and why it must therefore be put down before it is too late.”
