Western Propaganda Model

Noam Chomsky - Manufacturing Consent

Quit dreaming about an unfiltered version of Youtube. It's not gonna happen.

Real press freedom can't exist. Consent needs to be manufactured with a system that shapes our perceptions & identity while distracting us from the real power. There is no "New World Order". There is a world order & we're blinded to it for the most part.

The difference is that they recognize the filtering & brainwashing for what it is & discuss it openly. There's no pretense of a "free press" & the brainwashing there is simpler & much more easy to identify. Our system is far more advanced & penetrating. The vast majority of Chinese will tell you things got out of hand during the CR. How many Americans do you know that would even recognize what made over half of all US citizens believe Saddam had WMDs & links to al Qaeda in 2001?

(both are utter lies)
