“Day by day and almost minute by minute the past was brought up to date. In this way every prediction made by the Party could be shown by documentary evidence to have been correct; nor was any item of news, or any expression of opinion, which conflicted with the needs of the moment, ever allowed to remain on record. All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary.”
—1984 [1949] George Orwell
Someone kindly sent me a video of what they thought was Jimmy Kimmel making a statement about the current situation with Donald Trump kidnapping the leader of Venezuela so he and his rich friends could get their hands on that heavy crude oil our refineries need while also opening up the country to hot money speculators and private equity vulture capitalists.
It wasn't actually Jimmy Kimmel, it was a 'fan-made' AI compilation of his previous work designed to appear to present the opposition position on the subject while cleverly embedding dark, free market capitalist propaganda into the message i.e.:
"and by the way Maduro is an illegitimate leader who has presided over unimaginable suffering the Venezuelan opposition has every right to want him gone' Jimmy Kimmel AI video at the 5:40 mark below video
This is the same type of Cass Sunstein styled controlled opposition as Bernie Sanders saying it is illegal and wrong to invade Libya but then follows it up with... 'but Gaddafi is an evil dictator who kills his own people'
This is a collection of Jimmy Kimmel statements and writings combined to produce a bit of carefully crafted propaganda which points out OBVIOUS flaws in our current regime but then promotes LIES about life in Venezuela and living under a social democracy.
Its
designed to blunt any real opposition to the act by dehumanizing the
target of aggression and playing up the 'R2P' bullshit narrative that its
GOOD that we did .... (fill in the blank)
Sanders is ALLOWED to
remain in office because he serves their interests in this way just like
Jimmy Kimmel understands he is EXPECTED to say the OBVIOUS about
Trump.. but also poisons the well when it comes to the objective
of the regime change: demonizing socialism and leaders who side with BRICS' multi-polar world view.
Allow me to explain:
“We can readily imagine a series of possible responses. (1) Government might ban conspiracy theorizing. (2) Government might impose some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories.”
”We suggest a distinctive tactic for breaking up the hard core of extremists who supply conspiracy theories: cognitive infiltration of extremist groups, whereby government agents or their allies (acting either virtually or in real space, and either openly or anonymously) will undermine the crippled epistemology of believers (1)by planting doubts about the theories and stylized facts that circulate within such groups, thereby (2) introducing beneficial cognitive diversity.”
… government agents “might enter chat rooms, online social networks, or even real-space groups and attempt to undermine percolating conspiracy theories by raising doubts about their factual premises, causal logic or implications for political action.” Cass Sunstein, President Obama’s regulatory czar
The video above is a prime example of cognitive infiltration. The people of Venezuela are not suffering. They are arming themselves to defend their Bolivarian revolution against going back to the days of military dictators and corrupt politicians who claimed to be socialist while they gave into pressure from the West and the IMF.
Life is simply better for the average Venezuelan under Chavisimo
Despite the lies being sold as news in the West, Maduro won the most recent election with 51% of the vote. Though Google will only return propaganda in any search you might try regarding last year's election, it's not impossible to get a glimpse into the truth of the matter.
How hard is it to figure out that Big Business in America, the EU and the UK have a vested interest in de-legitimizing the leadership of a nation which refuses to bend the knee to our 'national interests'?
Trump and Machado promise to hand over the oil revenue from the country to Big Business as that same oil is being used to help the people of Venezuela enjoy a better life style.
They know what it means when the IMF imposes a 'loan' on the people and slam their economic brick of structural adjustments down on their heads.
So of course Maduro won. The only campaign promise the opposition could muster was that the sanctions from the West would end when a complicit puppet comes to power and that's not much of a promise if you ask me.
But we are all expected to believe that it's Maduro's fault that life is harder in Venezuela and not the fault of the free market zombie technocrats who try to make the economy scream so they can get into the country and bleed it dry themselves.
And AI Kimmel would have you believe it's Maduro's fault.
You see, that's Cass Sunstein cognitive infiltration. Slop AI cognitive infiltration.
Don't fall for it.
