Advertising and media content targeting viewer’s unconscious mind has been augmented by techniques like hypnotic induction, subsonic “whisper” acoustics and images which stimulate aggression, sexual arousal or instinctual responses. As previously noted, the power of these exploits and the depth and range of their reach has been greatly enhanced by the advent of networked media technologies.
The presumed independence and competitive operation of entertainment and communications industry is illusory. The media may be considered as a single functionally integrated parasitic organism which includes the advertising industry. “Simply expressed, what is consciously perceived by individuals, groups or nations has little or nothing to do with the physical, biological, economic and social realities the perceptions represent. “
Advertising supported media viewers are not citizens whom broadcasters compete to inform but consumer victims to be coerced and manipulated. Advertising supported legacy media is not a passive partner in subversion - they are the "experts" in subliminal influence – and they are planners and profit participants in the exploitation, deception and social engineering and now the principal architects of the psychological attack intended to destroy America.
Media has been doing this ever since advertising supported media was born.
Karl Kraus the Viennese satirist, documented the advertising supported media’s role in fomenting the incompetent and disastrous charade of WW I. One of Kraus’s recent translators, Michael Russell, summarizes, “Kraus saw a powerful influential press in Vienna becoming ever more mendacious, manipulative, corrupt and self-serving, forming ever stronger ties with the aristocratic, industrial, financial and above all political elites of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and later, after the war, with the struggling democracy of a new Austria.”
Kraus recognized as did many that the media was an apocalyptic threat, creating a false reality, one which it was impossible to reject publicly without being considered a fool or a mad man.
Since Kraus’s day the advertising-media superorganism has developed technologically and consolidated economically until six companies today enjoy near total control over all human communication. 99% everything we learn about the world comes to us today through a screen. This has created an extended perceptual loop, information we receive about the world is interpreted by experience derived from prior media experiences. This deterioration as cumulative, and the generations of layered lies become more and more corrupt, worthless illusion.
Further what we perceive on a monitor or device screen is treated the same way that information about the world which we receive via our senses from the natural world - it is trusted.
The first world war was started for profit and the advertising supported media complex - newspapers and magazines in that day - were not passive agents reporting this, but active partners in fomenting and initiating the war and provoking public fear and hatred and palpably fraudulent patriotism necessary to support it. The media participated directly in the profits reaped by their advertisers; bankers, arms makers and suppliers of goods and services. Advertising supported media organizations prospered so greatly from the first, mass mechanized, slaughter of civilian populations in the history of warfare, that they’ve been at it ever since. Six companies today exert near total control over the entirety of human mass communication.
