Yes, thank you for the correction! Obama admin did a lot of damage to journalism. This was also the same year when the newsrooms were being purged of seasoned journalists and editors and replaced with recent indoctrinated grads. I remember it well.

Smith-Mundt Modernization + creation of Social and Behavioral Science Team (SBST) "Nudge Unit."

https://behavioralscientist.org/executive-order-formally-establishes-us-nudge-unit/

Behavioral Science, The Science (TM) of the pandemic is the science of the efficacy of propaganda to change a target population's behaviors. Like increasing compliance with government directives. A one-two punch. Put in place under the Obama administration.

And Behavioral Science, The Science (TM) is the science of totalitarianism, as described by practitioners:

(The UK established its own "Nudge Unit," the Behavioural Insights Team (BIT) under Cameron (a conservative?) at the same time as Obama did in the US.)

Notes:

- Epidemiology incorporates behavioral science, a common field of study for that career path, theory that change in a population's behavior is necessary, the basis of most of the non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPI's) like masks, lockdowns, social distancing, etc.

- "Nudge" is a book written by Richard Thaler (UK) and Cass Sunstein (US) in 2008 that ostensibly led to the creation of Nudge units in both nations.

We can't forget about Sunstein's wife, Samantha Power. NSC Director and UN Ambassador under Obama, Benghazi infamy. Now heads up US AID, establishing media propaganda outlets across the third world:

Master propagandists, insinuated in many powerful positions at home and abroad in Big Tech, Big Media, Big Government. Wielding The Science (TM) of propaganda without the restrictions of Smith-Mundt that prohibited propagandizing US citizens. And here we are at the precipice of losing freedom for mankind. Happening on our watch.

Freedom Fox, that MF’er, NObummer, said he’d “tfundamentally ransform” the USA; I’d say he & the evil rest have exceeded beyond their wildest wet dreams. I sure don’t recognize anything about this country anymore

Me neither. It's sad. I am glad that grew up when America was still America so at least I got to experience it.

Me too. But it's our obligation and sacred honor that we must devote to restore its greatness for future generations. There's no Hollywood ending with a hero saving the day. That's our job now. Be the change you seek. As Obama said. He was right about that. And the wise will learn from their adversaries. It's why I read their propaganda and manuals, their source materials reveal their plans.

True. But even he couldn't have done all the damage with just Democrat support. Republicans, especially those in leadership positions, supported his "fundamental change" too. The Bush's, Cheney's, McConnell's, Romney's, McCain's, Roberts', Ryan's, Boehner's, Rove's, Luntz's, Koch's, etc all support centrally-planned economies, authoritarianism, Behavioral Science campaigns to gain the compliance and submission of the population, use of public-private partnerships to bypass constitutional barriers, censorship. All actively supported by R's and D's alike that accomplish the "fundamental change."

There is a pact that was inked long ago binding the D's Marxist vision with the R's Fascist vision of America, much like Stalin and Hitler signed. Both systems identify western liberal capitalist democracies as their mutual enemy, both view individual liberty as the biggest threat to the state. Bitter Clingers, deplorables and all. These R's joined with D's to crush the Tea Party and MAGA Patriots. Both benefit from corrupt elections, which is why R's don't object to them. Both R's and D's power share with the objective of crushing individual liberty and freedom, using Orwellian linguistics to pervert and redefine slavery as freedom, along with Behavioral Science tools of manipulation like "choice architecture" - look that one up.

Both parties benefiting from the current system knowing that the Pact must hold until resistance is crushed before settling the squabble over which authoritarian system will ultimately prevail. Having learned from the history of the Hitler-Stalin Pact, determined not to be doomed repeating that outcome.

If it was just Obama and his Marxist minions along with weak, stupid R's who got us here the challenges in front of us wouldn't be so daunting. It's the complicity of both parties, corporations, academia, media, tech, clergy, etc that has our USA we cherish up against it. And only waking up enough of our fellow Americans before the bipartisan authoritarians slam the trap door behind us will save us. The Sleeping Giant must rise. Where we are today only a divine intervention can save the human rights he endowed us with in our creation.

We must encourage others and ourselves to reach into our hearts and find our true connection with God. And devote ourselves to following his word and light. Learning the implements and systems of our oppressors to both resist them and help others see the coercive, manipulative deceptions that true connection with God allows us to see through.

There's so much down this rabbit hole. Including coordination with DARPA psychological manipulations. I've deep-dived it because it truly is the machine behind the wizard's curtain that makes the wizard appear to be all-powerful. It took a fearless dog, Toto, to pull back the Wizards' curtain in Oz. Fearless foxes can do the same. Behind the curtain are weak, pathetic men and women, using psychological technology to appear to be all-knowing and all-powerful.

Doing God's work, Fox. Looking forward to reading your Stack.
