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

It was a prototype experiment

I don't see how this relates to your long convoluted thread involving cultural Marxism and Nikola Tesla

It has been Co-opted

I'd hardly call it an experiment he just made people think stuff was fashionable, or healthy, or scary, even if it wasn't

That's just advertising

yea that's nothing to do with social welfare. social engineering is personal manipulation, it isn't about engineering society contrary to it's fairly misdirecting name.

Any relevant advances get Co-opted into the mission

It's perhaps immoral but it's fairly obvious

Call it what you will

advertising? influencing, things like that?
