Manufacturing Delusion

How the Left Uses Brainwashing, Indoctrination, and Propaganda Against You

De: Buck Sexton

Narrado por: Buck Sexton

A former CIA analyst draws on his experience combatting jihadi terror movements and the history of totalitarian regimes to show how citizens lose touch with reality.

Some of history’s greatest empires have devolved into genocidal lunacy—often with shocking compliance from their own people. What methods can create this madness?

In Manufacturing Delusion, acclaimed conservative commentator and former CIA officer Buck Sexton offers answers. Drawing on his intelligence experience, expertise in crowd psychology, knowledge of propaganda, and research into some of history’s darkest totalitarian chapters, he equips you to identify mind control tactics used to form compliant citizens. He explores the eight tactics of mass delusion through examining:

• How Stalin used Pavlovian mind games to establish absolute control
• How Chinese thought reform transformed opposition into terrorized pawns
• How Jihadist preachers replace shared humanity with weaponized fear

Using these examples and others, Sexton walks you through a history of controlling regimes and the methods they used to create passive citizens. More importantly, he shows you how some of the early stages of mass delusion have already occurred right here in the United States of America, on issues of public health, gender, and racial justice.

An unnerving explanation of how Orwell’s 1984 could become reality, Manufacturing Delusion is essential reading for anyone who wants to know how to stand strong when everyone around them is going crazy.

Historical facts contrast with today’s social media landscape

I was hoping for Fauci and democrats voices. Awesome reading by Buck. Will encourage others to read it, especially young adults.

Expansion of conditioning exemplified by Pavlov's dogs

Reinforcement that truth can counteract lies - be sure you know the real truth when faced with "new truths".

Examples of historical indoctrination as lessons

This book is a great primer on various examples of thought control used by governments and despots across history that are paired with modern day examples of these techniques being used. Buck does a nice job of keeping the material scholarly but not dry. There are many opportunities to jot down a name or a topic for further study. This would be a good listen for anyone seeking a concise understanding of thought control techniques to further guard your mind in the new social and political landscape

Very educational

This is a great review of how mind control has been used by so-called leaders that are basically manipulators of men to get people to do the wrong things throughout history. highly recommend!!

How our current environment is brainwashing us.
