The age of propaganda is coming to an end. The disinformation conjurers and professional bullshit artists are realizing, to their horror, that the old magic doesn’t work quite like it used to. They can install their lame apparatchiks anywhere they want, their words fall flat. The internet, whatever its faults, has unleashed an endless number of spell breakers, who tirelessly poke holes in every new agitprop bubble until it pops and impotently wheezes around the room. This is probably the most significant development in the past 70 years. The entire global power structure has been built upon the easy malleability of the American mind. Middle class Americans have been fed despair and fatalism, while the technocratic white collars have used their money to enact their megalomania.
The black aurora hanging hovering above America now is the construction of an enormous interconnected web of absolute surveillance, designed to do vulgarly and openly what propaganda previously did imperceptibly.
