The daily inundation through commercials and other advertisements in the media includes initiatives by policy makers as well as opportunistic consequences of policies. It is at times difficult to tell whether climate hype and hysteria feed on “commercial” insanity or whether the insane hysteria about climate change presented by policy makers is what drives the business interests who inflict insane commercials on the population.

Having grown up in and during Hitler’s regime, there is one thing I know, because I observed it first hand.  Hitler said in “Mein Kampf” that the implementation of absolute ideological domination depends on the extent to which a simplified propaganda message — tailored to the lowest common denominator of the capabilities of the most simplistic elements in the masses — saturizes the daily lives of the masses continuously and all pervasively.

Thanks to wattsupwiththat.com, here is a link to a prime example of the blurring of the line between intent and consequences of high-intensity propaganda:

The Superbowl “Green Police” commercial

That is “truth” in advertising? The truth shall set you free, but keep in mind that, when propaganda was only an art and not yet a science, Hitler said:

The function of propaganda is, for example, not to weigh and ponder the rights of different people, but exclusively to emphasize the one right which it has set out to argue for. Its task is not to make an objective study of the truth, in so far as it favors the enemy, and then set it before the masses with academic fairness; its task is to serve our own right, always and unflinchingly.

—Hitler, Mein Kampf, Chapter VI

 It does not pay to buy in on artistic or “scientific” over-the-top propaganda efforts. It makes no difference whether they are used to promote totalitarian politics or intensified consumerism.
