The Dark Machinery of Influence - Media PSYOPs and the Quiet War on Consciousness
18 Dec 2024
Substack Post: https://drjerryasmith.substack.com/p/the-dark-machinery-of-influence Dr. Jerry A. Smith's Substack post, "The Dark Machinery of Influence," argues that media is increasingly used for sophisticated psychological operations (PSYOPs) to manipulate public perception. These PSYOPs, utilizing sensationalism, coordinated messaging, and emotional triggers, aim to control populations through fear and distraction. The post outlines ten key elements of PSYOPs and provides the New Jersey drone phenomenon as a potential example. Smith contends that a powerful network of corporate, governmental, and media entities drives this manipulation, impacting individual well-being and societal cohesion. He concludes by urging readers to cultivate critical thinking and resist such manipulation to preserve autonomy and freedom.
