Trump practices these methods of the "Big Lie"
Trump's Five Principles of Autocratization
Further he also practices the 5 principles of Autocratization that propaganda that others have used before him. Amazingly, Steve Schmidt, who I remember shilling for GW Bush years ago when GW was doing some of these things, recognized and had enough with #Trumpenfuhrer's methodology that even he is raising the alarm. His formulation of the 5 Principles of totalitarian propaganda, restated in my own words, is as follows:
- He uses Big Lie techniques to incite ferver in his base of fervent followers.
- branding scapegoats and rivals as enemies; affixing blame for complex problems to them and them alone.
- Further, he gaslights his followers by alleging conspiracies, hidden, nefarious and linked to those scapegoated populations
- He spreads a sense of victimization among them.
- He asserts the need to exert heretofore unprecedented power to protect his victim fans from those conspiracies and scapegoated populations.
The totalitarian playbook is bigger than the 5 methods of Big Lie propaganda. It also includes:
- coercion, cooption, subjection and blackmail to keep To the Radical, Trumper, Right GOP the "Dreamers" are merely "illegal immigrants" and their propaganda is aimed at white people to scare them and get them angry. They want to portray dreamers as murderers and job stealers.
And it will work on their base.
The source for the list was listening to Steve Schmidt on Ari Melber's show today.
