George Soros: modern Goebbelist
“A lie told once remains a lie, but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth.” So said Joseph Goebbels (1). And George Soros seems to have learned all he needed to learn from him.
Joseph Goebbels, master of propaganda
Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Francesco Gramsci and Saul Alinsky were all malevolent masterminds of manipulating others into becoming willing puppets of the State. Lenin’s “What Is to Be Done?;” (2) Trotsky’s “In Defense of Marxism,” (3) Gramsci’s “Prison Notebooks” (4) and Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” (5) were all written to push strategy and propaganda onto the masses. All have succeeded in spreading malignant evil. But aside from Lenin, none lived to become absolute masters over every form of media and, arguably, none were as effective as Joseph Goebbels.
The Reich Minister for Propaganda and Popular Enlightenment, Goebbels, was the architect of Hitler’s rise to power in the Nazi Party and thereafter, his ascension to de facto dictator over the Third Reich. one of the most brutal empires in history. According to writer H.R. Trevor-Roper, (6) “Goebbels was an impresario of genius, the first man to realize the full potentialities of mass media for political purposes in a dynamic totalitarian state.” He perceived early on how the masses could be easily led by skillful use of modern media (7) and he grasped the reins of that media (8) to propel Hitler into power and Nazi Germany into war.
We are always strongest in the offensive.
Joseph Goebbels (9)
Goebbels: the early years
Born in 1897, Joseph Goebbels was rejected by the German Army in WWI due to a clubbed foot so instead, he attended Heidelberg University where he was awarded a doctorate of philosophy in 1920. His disability, slight physical stature and his resentment of the harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles turned Goebbels into a very embittered man in the early 1920’s. Seeing an outlet for his anger, Goebbels joined the Nazi Party in 1924.
Goebbels was, at first, critical of another young and angry German by the name of Adolph Hitler. But in one of those cruel ironies of life, Hitler later became a friend to Goebbels. Goebbels first task was to build up Nazi support in the city of Berlin. He approached this like he approached everything in his life, by attacking it. The Nazi’s main rivals were the communists. In order to defeat them, Goebbels would often storm into their meetings and take over the microphone as his “Sturmabteilung” (SA) paramilitaries (10) would beat dissenters into submission. Then, as would become his lifetime practice, he would accuse the communists of starting the fight.
Seeing Goebbels’ deeply rooted scorn for humanity, his ability to sow confusion and hatred, his thirst for power and his command of mass persuasion, Hitler unleashed Goebbels during the election campaigns of 1932. Goebbels was hugely responsible for Hitler’s election as Chancellor. Following the election, the German Parliament building, the Reichstag, was deliberately torched allowing Hitler to become the dictator of Germany.
Complete control of information
Goebbels was rewarded by being made Reich Minister for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, a position he held until 1945. He now had complete control over all radio, cinema, newspapers and other arts. His works are still spoken of today as masterpieces of propaganda; he created the Cult of “Der Fuehrer” to turn Hitler into a messianic figure as well as using all the media in Nazi controlled areas to denounce his enemies. Films like Franz Hippler’s “Der Ewige Jude” depicting Jews as rats became the norm as the “Final Solution” took hold.
Writer Peter Bjel (11) described Goebbels use of the cinema thusly:
If the Nazis were movie-mad, then the Third Reich was movie-made, a fantasy order that in equal measure was dream machine and a death factory.
Still effective early and late
During the first few years of the war, it was easy for Goebbels to persuade the Germans of the inevitable victory of Hitler and the Third Reich, but that all changed with the shattering defeat of the German 6th Army under General Friedrich Paulus at Stalingrad in 1943. (12) His statement following the defeat showed the new direction Goebbels would take the Germans: “An entire Army had sacrificed itself ‘for all of us,’ and indeed, for western civilization. Goethe and Beethoven, Augustus and Pericles were being defended in the wilds of the East.” In a flash, the myth of German invincibility was smashed and the focus became the subhuman brutality and stupidity of the Soviet solder as opposed to willing sacrifice of the German hero.
In spite of the devastating defeats Germany had after Stalingrad, Goebbels propaganda machine was still able to convince the people that theirs was a righteous and glorious cause worth dying for. Die for it Goebbels did, as the Russian Army was crushing the pitiful German army in Berlin and the city lay in ruins, Goebbels poisoned his six children, shot his wife and then himself. The man who used the arts to propel one of the most evil men in history was dead, but his legacy of evil lives on
George Soros takes lessons
Along the way, power hungry zealots have used Goebbels’ writings to support their own nefarious designs. Case in point: After Trump’s election victory, Nazi collaborator (13) George Soros joined other global elites (14) along with their mainstream media (MSM) lapdogs to do just that. In accordance with Goebbels playbook they blamed “Russian” (15) hacking for Hillary Clinton’s loss and Donald Trump’s victory. Attacks included organized so called “grass root” (16) riots and a campaign to intimidate members (17) of the Electoral College (18) into changing their votes from Trump to Clinton.
The “Russian hacking” meme was created as a cover for the Wikileaks release of thousands of damning emails which exposed collusion between the Democratic National Committee, (19) the MSM and the Hillary Campaign to steal the Democratic Party’s nomination from Bernie Sanders. (20) Their release showcased Hillary’s blatantly illegal disregard for US Top Secret documents (21) and “pay to play” (22) activities in which Hillary actively engaged while she was Secretary of State. (23) A majority (24) of democrats (25) have proven themselves to be as morally corrupt (26) as the DNC leadership by focusing concern on a scapegoat (27) for Hillary’s loss (28) instead of the scandals her emails exposed.
The similarity between the current attempts by George Soros to destroy what little is remaining of the American Republic and Hitler’s rise to power cannot be ignored. As Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch failed to raise Hitler to power, so did Soros’s Electoral College non-event and post-election riots fail to propel Hillary into the office of US President. But continuing to reach into his Nazi bag of tricks, Soros and company use another Goebbels strategy:
Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.
Joseph Goebbels (1)
The Russian red herring
On January 10th, the media exploded with the scoop of a lifetime when CNN (29) released news on the existence of a report linking President-elect Donald Trump to the “Russian” hacking scandal. Compiled by retired British intelligence officer Christopher Steele, the report claimed that Russia had gathered compromising data about the President-elect. Originally, Mr. Steele was hired by anti-Trump Republicans to dig up dirt on Trump, however, the funding continued from an anonymous Democrat donor.
Later that evening, the ultra-liberal web site “Buzz-Feed” (30) released the entire report. (31) Supposedly originating from Russian intelligence members, it consisted of a series of memos alleging that Russian agents have been blackmailing Trump over footage of himself with Russian prostitutes. In truth, the dossier has more holes in it than the Obama administration’s explanation of what happened at Benghazi. (32)
For example, months before CNN (33) and Buzz-Feed (34) published the report; it had been passed over as fake news. (35) NBC (36) sources deny CNN (37) reports that Trump had been given a two page briefing about the dossier. (38) Moreover, the poorly written dossier cannot be verified. (39) Contrary to memo claims, Michael Cohen, (40) has never visited Prague, let alone met with Russian officials. Even CNN says it was a different Michael Cohen in Prague.
George Soros: A Modern Goebbelist Part II
The truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
Joseph Goebbels (1)
Recall President Barack Obama’s unwitting live microphone comments to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev in March of 2012. “This is my last election;” he whispered “After my election, I have more flexibility.” (41) Then, during the 2014 Ukrainian crisis, when Russia invaded and retook its historical base of Crimea, the presumably “hard as nails,” anti-Russian leader Obama offered ration kits (42) to the Ukraine as he backpedaled on his Eastern European missile defense promise. When questioned on his backtracking, Obama blithely answered, “Ukraine is a core Russian interest but not an American one, so Russia will always be able to maintain escalatory dominance there.” Obama’s actions mirror the depth of hypocrisy (43) that Soros and his ilk practice on a regular basis.
In the meantime, a company run by former KGB agents paid Bill Clinton speaking fees to the tune of $500,000 (44) and the Clinton Foundation, raked in $2.35million (45) for allowing a Russian-owned company to assume control of 20% of the world’s uranium supply. This deal literally shut the US out of the European market for uranium. Additionally it posed substantial security risks to the US and Europe (46) So important to Russia was this sweetheart deal that Pravda, the official mouthpiece of the Kremlin, put this on the cover of its newspaper “Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World.” (47)
Allowing no opportunity to go to waste, today’s Goebbelists eagerly follow in their masters footsteps by engaging paid thugs (48) to start fights (49) and bully Trump supporters as the MSM would label the Trump supporters as “racist bigots.” (50)
Attempt at anarchy
Focusing on Trump’s inauguration, contemporary SA thugs purpose to bring about anarchy in this nation. (51) One of the participating groups, #DISRUPTJ20, is even calling for a Queer Dance (52) in front of the home of Vice President Mike Pence. Numerous progressive/communist organizations openly advertise for “volunteers” (53) to incite mayhem (54) that effectively shuts down Washington DC. (55)
The largest private grassroots support organization in the United States, Demand Protest (56) has recruited politically motivated cohorts to protest Trump’s inauguration. So much for “grassroots” and “spontaneous!” Promising “volunteers” $50 an hour and $2,500 (56) a month, Demand Protest seeks willing operatives to disrupt the ceremony. The group 4Chan claims that Demand Protest (57) is Soros funded. Since Soros paid Ferguson and Trump protestors, this is not an unreasonable assumption. 58
Following Goebbels method of attacking without mercy, today’s entertainers openly mock Trump, his family and supporters. Recall the American Music Awards (59) ceremony in November of 2016 and the Golden Globe Awards (60) in January 2017, when actress Meryl Streep criticized Donald Trump while, at the same time, praising two specific groups dedicated to “protecting” journalists, namely, ProPublica (61) and the Committee to Protect Journalists. (62) Note: both groups are heavily funded by George Soros. (63) One need only follow the money (64) for evidence of Nazi ideology in the current media transmission and propaganda.
Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.
Joseph Goebbels (1)
The West under propaganda attack
The West is under a propaganda attack unlike anything it has seen before. Every form of electronic media is being used to pound the message to us that discrimination is the American way. Paradoxically, those screaming the loudest about American “discrimination” are the same ones guilty of the most intolerance as demonstrated here; (65) here: (66) here (67) and here. (68) Claims of intolerance are even leveled against fellow liberals as evidenced by the largely Soros funded anti-Trump Women’s March on Washington. (69)
The MSM dubs any article critical of the George Soros/MSM myth as “fake news.” In early December, the EU (70) is demanding an end to “fake news” (71) to be enforced by social media (72) companies. Accordingly Facebook, (73) will now apply warning labels (74) to stories deemed to be “fake,” (75) as determined by the Poynter Institute. The Poynter Institute (76) is funded by Soros’s Open Society Foundation, Google, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Omidyar Network (founder of Ebay), the Craig Newmark Foundation and other globalist groups. So the fox is once again guarding the hen house.
The emergence of the “fake news” phenomenon is coincidentally, at a time where faith in American political system has plummeted. Conducted by Nathanael Persily and Jon Cohen, a large poll paints a dismal picture of what Americans feel about our political institutions and even their fellow Americans. Ignoring the fact that ours is a Constitutional Republic, 3,000 (77) registered voters were asked a series of questions about how they felt about democracy in America. 40% of the respondents have “lost faith in America,” while 6% responded that they never had faith in America. A full 67% felt their fellow Americans are untrustworthy. A different poll (78) measured faith in governments in the US government at 38%.
Brexit and Trump: George Soros takes alarm
The British vote to leave the European Union (Brexit) and the election of Donald Trump as US president reflect the growing erosion in the faith of globalist policies that favor the banksters, government officials and multi-national corporations. Fed up with fewer jobs for lower pay and diminished benefits, coupled with a greater risk of violence from the immigrants not properly vetted, more and more people are waking up to the rigged game the elites have been playing for decades. (79)
Propaganda works best when those being manipulated are confident that they are acting on their own free will.
Joseph Goebbels (1)
It’s apparent why George Soros and the Council on Foreign Relations are actively hostile towards Trump GOP controlled Congress. CFR Director of International Institutions and Global Governance, Stewart Patrick, wrote an article for CNN (80) entitled “Future of US Relationship with UN in Doubt.” His fanciful tale continues the Soros theme of nationalism being bad, globalism being good. Patrick (81) complains that Trump and the GOP are going to “whack” the UN by possibly withholding money to the UN, which, according to Patrick, remains the best bang for the US buck.
All roads lead to George Soros
Once again, all roads lead to George Soros. Patrick was a research fellow at the Center for Global Development, a liberal think tank with ties to another philanthropic group (started by Bill Gates and George Soros among other globalists) called “One”. In his article, Patrick praises the incoming UN Chief, Antonio Guterres as an “accomplished and dynamic leader” capable of “fending off the negative impact of a unilaterally-inclined US administration and a micromanaging Congress.” Enjoying complete support of China and Russia, Guterres (82) was active with “Friends of Europe,” (83) which is also sponsored by Soros. Moreover, as UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Guterres worked with Soros’ “Open Society Foundation” that instigated the Muslim immigrant invasion of Europe.
George Soros,’ (84) writing in a January 2017 Op Ed piece, defends those countries he calls “Open Societies,” ones that are willing to sacrifice part of their sovereignty for the common good. His plea smacks of “piecemeal social engineering” involving small, incremental steps toward establishing supranational governance. He states that the election of a would be dictator, Donald Trump; the British vote for leaving the European Union (Brexit); and the Italian vote against Constitutional Amendments creating a less democratically created but more powerful central government show a popular move away from globalism. The reason we are told is a buildup of resentment of governmental policies favoring the elites causing an increasing number of people to favor a tyrannical “nationalist” government instead of George Soros-style transnational “open societies.”
Incitement to riot
Since the election, the clarion call has again been ringing for the end (85) of the Electoral College. (86) The expressed intent of groups like Refuse Fascism, and #DISRUPTJ20, (87) is to shut down Washington DC. (88) Ultimately they want to instigate the rebellion of tens of millions of people against the Trump/Pence administration and eventually remove them from office. Remember, these are groups being supported by an actual Nazi collaborator, George Soros who would like nothing better than to eliminate the votes of some 63 million Americans who voted for Trump/Pence.
George Soros: A Modern Goebbelist Part III
The technotronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values.
Zbigniew Brzeziński (89)
Owned by the Rothschild family, the globalist mouthpiece Economist (90) magazine warns of severe economic pain in the post-Brexit world of Great Britain. As the article states, “If the price is economic pain, so be it.” In the US, we are warned that, by rejecting the “philanthropy” (91) of Soros’ “Open Society Foundation,” we are embracing tyranny; while democracy is endangered by dark forces that plan to reverse the advances made by minorities. To the contrary, foundations that “care” about civil society—i.e., Open Society, Carnegie Corporation, Ford, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, MacArthur and Mott—need to move to the forefront.
The same people warning of encroaching tyranny should the continued trend of rejecting globalism continue, are now offering up technocracy as an alternative. In an article posted by Bloomberg, (92) a self-described “globalist,” and apparent fan of George Soros, (93) Professor Tyler Cowen is calling on Trump to bring in more “experts” to rule over America. Cowen’s bottom line is fear; his solution is for technocrats to save us, as they did in 2008, when the experts swindled trillions from common citizens.
An executive council?
Featuring Chinese President XI Jinping and German Chancellor Angela Merkel at the top of the page, Huffington Post recently released the article, “Sick of Democracy? (94) The US could learn a lot from these Countries.” In it, we are warned that because populism has triumphed over pragmatism, we’re basically doomed. The article’s author, Parag Khanna, is a Fellow at the Soros/Bill and Melinda Gates/MacArthur funded “New America Foundation.” He is a respected member of academia and a well-connected globalist as pointed out in Time Magazine (95) and the Washington Post. (96)
In Khanna’s view, we best ditch the President for a council, like communist China has. Otherwise, people will lose even more faith in US democracy. As experts in their fields, technocrats should run the hundreds of governmental agencies that control every aspect of American life. Though unelected, they “know what they are doing,” and they’re free to do what needs to be done. A parliamentary system of unelected tyrants also promises to get more done than Congress. Khanna’s article supports his book, Technocracy in America: Rise of the Info-State, which implies democracy is dead. Long live technocracy. (97)
Speculating on assassination
In yet another attempt to spread chaos, George Soros funded CNN (98) ran a bizarre news story on 1/19/2017 about what would happen to the US government should Trump, Pence, and Congressional leaders be assassinated before Trump was sworn into office. The result would be a continuance of the Obama administration. Aside from being borderline treasonous and possibly inciting an attempt on Trump’s life, why did they not run the same story when Obama was sworn into office?
Aspiring to be the invisible power behind the throne, George Soros is the Joseph Goebbels of our time. With help from fellow billionaires, well-connected academics, government officials and ruthless thugs, Soros relentlessly tears apart the fabric of the US while, at the same time, he finances solutions to problems he has helped create.
Unfortunately, Soros-nemesis Donald Trump will inherit a nation on the brink of civil war with the greatest national debt in world history, a shrinking labor force, and growing numbers on welfare and in poverty. Added to many other economic (99) indicators, these conditions signal a rapidly approaching financial collapse destined to dwarf the 2008 recession. Under a Trump (100) presidency, that collapse could incite unprecedented rioting as disgruntled citizens, at long last, demand a different government.
Divine intervention?
If Trump is going to succeed in draining the swamp of Washington DC,(101) it will only be because of divine intervention. There are too many bottom feeders in DC for one man or one team to fight and be successful against. We, the people of God need to fervently seek God’s blessing on Trump, his family and his administration for it will take a miracle to stop the globalist plot to destroy this country.
It is a sort of disease when you consider yourself some kind of god, the creator of everything, but I feel comfortable about it now since I began to live it out.
