Decode the Manipulative Playbook: Control Your Mind and Freedom
In this episode, I dive deep into how social media and mass media manipulate and control our thoughts and beliefs through psychological operations (psyops). I chat with Brandy, my wife, about the impact of these manipulations on our lives. From understanding the precision of engineered emotional triggers to dissecting the FATE model—Focus, Authority, Tribe, Emotion—I reveal the tactics used by media to control your attention and thoughts. We'll also look at the importance of challenging accepted narratives and being critical of so-called experts' opinions. Don't let fear, novelty, and emotion hijack your rational thinking—learn how to ask better questions and reclaim your cognitive freedom.
