Bernays Obtained Consent Because Evil Requires the Sanction of the Victim

We are fast approaching the stage of the ultimate inversion: the stage where the government is free to do anything it pleases, while the citizens may act only by permission; which is the stage of the darkest periods of human history, the stage of rule by brute force. ~ Ayn Rand

There was a time when entertainment had redeeming value at some level. This is no longer the case. I submit that the cinematic downfall is intentional and part of social engineering while facilitating a separation from reality and the dumbing-down of society. I further submit that old films depicting aspects of a better world than we currently experience will be removed or replaced as time goes on. I suspect this is one of the reasons we see so many films using titles from older films. Quite often, newer films reuse an older title and then the entire plot is changed. Oddly, character names and other elements may remain in place…

The power of entertainment, specifically film, should be obvious on the face of it. Human beings emulate. We learn and copy what we see others doing. Film is one way to provide the example. Take films like Robinhood and Dracula, as examples. These films are constantly remade, and quite often using the same characters and elements in the story-line. Clearly these stories are remembering something that is important to those who control what gets made. These stories are not important to “We the People”. And yet, they now remain as a part of culture due to the constant remaking and publishing of such tales.

The vast majority of modern film has lost its creative magic and is bereft of nearly all redeeming quality. It is increasingly artificial, and detached from reality. The look and feel no longer holds the charm that was once projected on the silver screen. Film is increasingly ugly, violent and without any redeeming quality en masse. Cleaver meaning and wholesome ideas are nearly extinct in modern film. It was not always this way, nor does it have to remain as such.
