Given the most recent absurdities regarding 200 year old flags, heroic trannys, murderous police forces, and the rise of racism 2.0 being paraded around every corner of the country - I wanted to post some information I came across while digging for answers and explanations to all this madness.
The conclusion I've come to: the entire country has and still is being played like a 25 cent pinball machine by a covert group of people who operate with impunity.

Impersonal forces over which we have almost no control seem to be pushing us all in the direction of the Brave New Worldian nightmare; and this impersonal pushing is being consciously accelerated by representatives of commercial and political organizations who have developed a number of new techniques for manipulating, in the interest of some minority, the thoughts and feelings of the masses.
Aldous Huxley, Preface to A Brave New World
Mass media and propaganda are therefore tools that must be used by the elite to rule the public without physical coercion. One important concept presented by Lippmann is the manufacture of consent, which is, in short, the manipulation of public opinion to accept the elites agenda. It is Lippmanns opinion that the general public is not qualified to reason and to decide on important issues. It is therefore important for the elite to decide for its own good and then sell those decisions to the masses.
Political and economic power in the United States is concentrated in the hands of a ruling elite that controls most of U.S.-based multinational corporations, major communication media, the most influential foundations, major private universities and most public utilities. Founded in 1921, the Council of Foreign Relations is the key link between the large corporations and the federal government. It has been called a school for statesmen and comes close to being an organ of what C. Wright Mills has called the Power Elite a group of men, similar in interest and outlook shaping events from invulnerable positions behind the scenes. The creation of the United Nations was a Council project, as well as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.
