>>23871892Probably the scariest part about social engineering is that these were changes that occured from the bottom up in a grassroots sort of way. That is how humanity has developed our political landscape and largely our opinions from the beginning of time. There was always social suggestion and people manipulating others but it has been turned into a science.
What concerns me is what happens to the human when they are conditioned this way? What happens to the brain? It's like injecting foreign material into the bloodstream. You are introducing something materially unnatural to a natural environment.
Social opinion and pressure used to be a self corrective sort of thing that was completely natural to environment. It's been honed over centuries to create European society and the western outlook. To improve life and society for everyone in it. It has done so for thousands of years. Social cooperation and agreement is why we were even able to establish civilization.
So this key thing to our existence is now being manipulated in ways we can't even comprehend at this point. It is being manipulated by people who think they know what they are doing, but they don't.
Humans are socially conditioned creatures. What's bad is bad and what's good is good is based on millennia of shared experience passed down through the ages. Now, we can be told what is bad. We can be told what is good. Black is white. Red is blue. If you tell someone who knows nothing else this their entire life, that is what they will believe.
I genuinely think this kind of manipulation of the human mind en masse could result in the destruction of our species one day. It is messing with something integral to cooperation and survival.
