A post from Fred Geurin on Noam Chomsky, one of the most important intellectuals in life today, has drawn up the list of 10 media manipulation strategies. Originally posted by Sara Perini.
1-The strategy of distraction
2-Creating problems and then offering the solutions.
3-The Strategy of Graduation.
4-The Strategy of Deferring.
5-Reach to the public like children.
6-Using emotional aspect much more than reflection.
7-Keeping the public in ignorance and mediocrity.
8-Stimulating the public to be complacent with mediocrity.
9-Strengthening self-guilt.
10-Knowing individuals better than they know themselves.
This means that, in most cases, the system exercises greater control and greater power over individuals, greater than that which the same individual exercises over himself.

"There has been “nothing comparable in American history” to the huge outpouring of protest unleashed by the murder of George Floyd, says world-renowned intellectual Noam Chomsky. Even at the very peak of Martin Luther King Jr.’s popularity, the mass protests that King led and inspired “didn’t come anywhere close” to the massive racial justice protests that have erupted over this past year, Chomsky adds."
This we should remember.
