Years ago, when I worked at a national public relations firm, there was a mantra that was something like “Say anything you want about me, just spell my name right.” This was sort of a smart alack response to attacks on political figures. But there is actually some truth to it. The repetition of a name 1000 times a day on TV and Radio, does grind into the minds of the masses. What the context was, all the other words, can be forgotten because there’s a huge confusing amount of chatter and accusations that nobody can begin to recall a week later. What sticks are the words “Donald Trump”.
What is going to be crucial to the next election cycle is what the impact of Trump’s constant turning of the spotlight on himself. Will the masses of voters, bombarded every minute of every day with Trump News, even remember 10 percent of the bad stuff? Will they just vote for him because of name recognition? Travel around on a bus and listen to the conversations. Amazingly, most have nothing to do with politics. Many individuals just tune out the political chatter, “it’s just politics.” They tire easily of the constant bickering, and it’s easy to say that the Dems are saying bad things about Trump because they are Dems. And the Elephants are chopping the Donkeys because they have Big Trunks with Tusks and that’s what they do. It all reminds me that my boss at the PR firm, the great Hal Evry, said clearly and often, that we need to appeal to the Average American who has the mind of an eleven year old, and that’s max eleven.
Trump seems to know this, and to top it off he has a blast furnace rudeness that has great mass appeal. Archie Bunker has finally made it to the White House. A certain percent love that off-the-wall, insult everyone mentality. And many folks love the fact that Trumps speech writers, if there are any, all seem to have worked at Mad Magazine in the 1960s.
And then, there’s the really personal touch:
He seems to never tire of giving someone on his hit list a derogatory nick name. “Cooked Hillary” is one that comes to mind. And if he is too busy to formulate a nickname then he sticks a moniker on someone, like his Attorney General, Sessions, “He was a weak man, very weak.”
At his rallies, he invites audience participation by inventing clever slogans that his followers can chant when he triggers it. They can’t seem to wait, they squirm in their seats until their moment in the spotlight when they can yell out “Build That Wall”, or “Lock Her Up”. Back in the day, the rule of thumb was that a political speech should be no longer than 10 minutes, because after that the audience just zones out. Trump has knocked that rule upside down. His rallies, his speeches go on for hours. The crowd sticks around for the fun, watching the few protesters being humiliated and thrown out. “Get him out of here”, says Trump. “Out, Out, Out” chants the crowd. The working class crowd has a great time. It’s better than sitting at home watching TV, in fact, you get to be on TV, chanting, whooping and yelling! It’s a blast. It’s MAD TV.
So the answer to the question will be revealed at the next Presidential election. Will the voters remember all the lies, all the bad things? Or will they just remember that name, brainwashed into their eleven year old minds. It may be hard for them to vote against someone who is Larger Than Life! He must be almost a king, the chosen one, because everyone talks about him day and night.
Maybe some folks should remember that silence can be golden. If nobody ever mentions your name, do you exist?
Check out the great article at www.SouthlandNewsBureau.com on the subject. It includes remarks on the Technocratic and Transhuman movements and has links to many videos. The EU is a complete Technocratic state, run by self-styled technocrats.
Buy your food from the CIA: Amazon buys Whole Foods
By Jon Rappoport
When Amazon boss and billionaire Jeff Bezos bought the Washington Post in 2013, he also had an ongoing $600 million contract to provide cloud computing services to the CIA. That meant the Washington Post, which already had a long history of cooperation with the CIA, renewed their wedding vows with the Agency and doubled down on the alliance.
By any reasonable standard of journalism, the Post should preface every article about the CIA, or article sourced from the CIA, with a conflict of interest admission: TAKE THIS PIECE WITH A FEW GIANT GRAINS OF SALT, BECAUSE OUR NEWSPAPER IS OWNED BY A MAN WHO HAS A HUGE CONTRACT TO PROVIDE SERVICES TO THE CIA.
Now Bezos and his company, Amazon, have bought Whole Foods for $13.7 billion. Whole Foods is the premier retailer of “natural” foods in America.
The degree of profiling of Whole Foods customers will increase by a major factor. Amazon/CIA will be able to deploy far more sophisticated algorithms in that regard.
It’s no secret that many Whole Foods customers show disdain for government policies on agribusiness, health, medicine, and the environment. Well, that demographic is of great interest to the Deep State, for obvious reasons. And the Deep State will now be able to analyze these customers in finer detail.
At the same time, the Amazon retail powerhouse will exercise considerable control over the food supply, since it will be selling huge numbers of food products to the public. Amazon will have new relationships with all the farmers Whole Foods has been using as suppliers.
Perhaps this disclaimer posted on every Whole Foods item is now in order: KEEP IN MIND THE FACT THAT THE OWNER OF WHOLE FOODS, AMAZON, HAS A VERY TIGHT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CIA. USE YOUR IMAGINATION.
Then there is this. The CIA has its own private company, called In-Q-Tel, which was founded in 1999 to pour investment money into tech outfits that could develop new ways to facilitate “data collection,” and service other CIA needs. In-Q-Tel, Jeff Bezos, and Amazon are connected. For example, here is a 2012 article from technologyreview.com:
“Inside a blocky building in a Vancouver suburb, across the street from a dowdy McDonald’s, is a place chilled colder than anywhere in the known universe. Inside that is a computer processor that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and the CIA’s investment arm, In-Q-Tel, believe can tap the quirks of quantum mechanics to unleash more computing power than any conventional computer chip. Bezos and In-Q-Tel are in a group of investors who are betting $30 million on this prospect…”
Nextgov.com described the deal this way: “Canadian company D-Wave Systems raised $30 million to develop quantum computing systems. Bezos Expeditions, the personal investment company of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, and CIA venture capital arm In-Q-Tel participated in the latest funding round, the firm announced. The company’s quantum computing technology seeks to speed up data-crunching. If successful, the technology could aid automated intelligence gathering and analysis.”
Yes, automated intelligence gathering and analysis are exactly what outfits like Amazon and the CIA need for profiling the public. Other companies who have purchased products from D-Wave Systems? Goldman Sachs and Lockheed Martin. Let’s see: Amazon, CIA, Goldman, Lockheed—a formidable collection of Deep State players.
“Buy your food from the purest natural retailer in the world, the CIA. Oops, I mean Amazon. Oops, I mean Whole Foods.”
