The easiest thing in the world is to manage stupid people. You do this with perceptions. For example, if you want to use the poor in a country, you can show that the country is sinking and the foreigners are the reason for this. You can say that if foreigners and immigrants leave, the country will improve a lot, including the economy, and you can convince people of this.
They did exactly the same with Brexit. They came up with a slogan called ‘Let’s take control of our borders’. With this slogan, they told people that the number of immigrants would decrease, that the number of people coming to the UK from Eastern European countries would decrease, and that all homeless people would be given council houses.
It has been exactly 5 years since they left Brexit. They lied; everything got much worse.
In the past, they used to create perceptions and manage people with classic media outlets in order to manage people. Some journalists, newspapers, TVs for sale would convey false information to the people, and the people’s perception would be managed. Newspapers do not have much influence, but they are still influential, and TVs will always be influential.
Look at far right newspapers like the Daily Mail. They only get circulation because they swear at immigrants and foreigners. Otherwise, no one will follow them.
Look at the footage on SKYNews; the number of rioters is not even a thousand, but they are constantly broadcasting live, instilling fear and anxiety in the public.
The BBC is also imitating Sky News. We are not counting other junk TV channels. For example, GB News.
Social media is now the most influential media outlet on the public. The number of correct news for millions of news is 5-10 thousand. News spreads faster and is harder to control.
The idiots in the media never went into the details of the stabbing of 9 children in Southport. How and why did a 15-year-old stab 9 children, there must be a reason. An unseen hand could have stabbed those children. But unfortunately, there are very few journalists in this country who ask questions. They all keep reporting similar news like parrots.
