“People are rarely aware of the real reasons which motivate their actions.”

Sigmund Freud’s Austrian-American nephew is Edward Louis Bernays. Bernays became one of the 100 most influential Americans of the 20th century. Bernays was the poineer in the field of public relations, Advertisement as we know it today and an expert of US propaganda overall. He really was regarded as ‘the father of public relations’. Bernays felt manipulation was necessary in society. If you feel like learning Bernays and the Freud Family I highly recommend Adam Curtis’s award-winning 2002 3,5 hr. documentary called “The Century of the Self” (PART1) (PART2) (PART3) (PART4). The video above is from an Excerpt from the Film. The film focuses on how the work of Sigmund Freud, Anna Freud, and Edward Bernays influenced the way corporations and governments have analysed,‭ dealt with, and controlled ‬people… Also look into Gustave Le Bon (The Nature of Crowds), Wilfred Trotter (BOOK), Noam Chomsky’s Manufacturing Consent (VIDEO) and speech.
