I was skimming The_Donald over at Reddit, and I ran across this post:
/pol/ explains the insidious brainwashing & propaganda we are up against.
I have been collecting material on the use of propaganda for a while; the concept of information warfare is based on the concept of propaganda, and while I haven't shifted my own focus of study that way, I would like to share with you what I have so far.
We are in the midst of an information war at the moment
See my earlier post - Who is telling you what - propaganda, conspiracy, and critical thinking
If you want to have even the smallest chance of understanding who is doing what in this war, you need to know what the basic methods are.
I will also be sharing research I have collected on these related and/or overlapping concepts in the future:
- Soviet Active Measures/Disinfomatzya
- COINTELPRO propaganda (a smaller subset of the ops in the whole, most which were directed at individuals)
- New Left adaptions of Active Measures (Alinsky)
- PsyOps/MindWar/Pychological Warfare
Before we dig into the list, I'll share a nice high energy song which applies to the subject at hand.
You will note that I am not including any Churchill, Chomspsky, or Zinn. I should because they are excellent examples of the use of using propaganda in the discussion of propaganda. YMMV.
If you are interest in obtaining a copy of any of these, let me know! Some of thee titles are duplicates, btw: the maintenance and update of my reference library is a neverending battle for me
