Manipulating Your & Your Children’s Opinion to Gain Consensus: The Delphi Technique In Educational Planning

Fear-Based Persuasion, Propaganda, & an Invasion from Mars
The Covid-19 pandemic has shown that the government and mainstream media can work together to produce effective persuasive messaging.

Without doing any thorough …
A Science of Behavior & a Quest for Control
