lmao you smoke I just eat the cigarette

Man honestly I'm still trying to follow your thread from Tesla -> cultural Marxism -> Trotskyist permanent revolution

1920: Freud’s nephew exploits his uncle’s groundbreaking Psychological theories into manipulating the popularity of smoking amongst women 😉

Or, you know, advertising in action...?

Don’t worry @elliottbw its a long and twisted thread 😅

Advertising is predicated on human psychology

Freud’s nephew created modern consumerist advertising based on his uncle’s principles, after he came out of the US propaganda “information ministry” after WW1

Freud’s theories were also co-opted by the Bloomsbury Group who are chock full of Trots

Bloomsbury Group are basically responsible for transplanting Psychological manipulation techniques into social policy...

Psychological manipulation techniques in social policy? Where?

It crosses over with the Tavistock Centre in London

In CULTURE

and social/political/psycho-healthcare/education

Social policy in culture? Those are two *distinct* things

Sure, they can impact one another

Crossover is key

But a culture does not have social policy

Look what Freud’s nephew did 😉

Yes it does if you have the long march through the institutions

I am enjoying watching this trainwreck of a conversation unfold

keep going

It’s nearly there

what is social policy?

ONWARD AND UPWARD WE GOOOOOOO!

Immigration/education/healthcare

But it basically crosses over throughout

aren't they political policies?

or governmental or something

Since WW2 we have social welfare

social welfare policy then

Social engineering, if you like

social welfare and social engineering are fairly far removed from each other.

Nope

One and the same

I mean, yes. social engineering would be like pretending to be a doctor to get laid.

Lol

or befriending someone and asking them questions that reveal personal information for passwords and so forth

Sounds about right

Ok so it sounds like Edward Bernays (Freud's nephew) just learned how to advertise successfully

Yes

social welfare is just a political standpoint not really social engineering
