How Publishers & Others Create Limited Hangouts in Publishing and Architecture
Mark Attwood & Friends LIVE on YT 5th Dec 23
The part on publishing starts around 45 minutes in. As someone who's self-published, found it right on the money.

Authors Abby Wynne and Gillian@mystichealing talked at one point with host Mark Attwood on YT about how publishers attempt to limit the topics they cover. ~ 45:30
Two books by Abby were published by HAY HOUSE, which puts out innovative books but still tries to push author in certain directions and away from others. She wanted a LION on the book cover because it takes COURAGE to do inner work, all she got was a "pathetic little bird." They did not want her to discuss "victim mentality," saying that Americans don't like that. She refused to follow their advice and they backed down.
Attword observed that this is how the PUBLISHING INDUSTRY creates limited hangouts – by telling authors, “you can talk about this, not that.” '~50:10: "That's been their modus operandi forever…Limited hangouts are the KEY to the control system - you give some of the information but you don't give it all." ''
At ~58:30, Attwood talks about how the same impulse shows up in the modern "reformation" movement in Great Britain architecture after WW2: in the New Town Movement [a gov’t effort to implement socialist ideas via the use of socialist architecture]. Refers to Milton-Keynes as one example of “souless” town" created that way. Said to google “mark III new town” . MK is a Mark 3 New Town. "
(Notice the MK initials - he talked a lot about MKU conditioning: "All part of social engineering Tavistock bullshit.")

They then talk about THE POWER OF MEMES to break through the narrative. TOP KEK!
At ~1:03, Gillian talks about how publishers use the editing process to TRAIN AUTHORS to change what they write. Says they do the same thing in live shows - they direct the narrative so you say what they want you to.
Abby: "We have to push it back."
