The Propaganda Playbook: Iran (How Consent Is Manufactured Before the First Bomb Drops)

🔴 WATCH THE FULL SECRETS OF PROPAGANDA STORY:

At 2am on a Saturday, the President announced a war on social media. No congressional vote. No press conference. No debate. And by the time you woke up, your consent had already been manufactured. In this episode of The Propaganda Playbook, I break down the exact 5-step "consent ladder" that was used on the American public in the weeks before the bombs dropped — the same 100-year-old technique invented by Edward Bernays, the man who created public relations. Then I reveal how I used the identical playbook to generate $3 million in sales in 90 minutes in front of 9,000 people. If you've ever wondered why people buy, why nations go to war, or how decisions get made before anyone realizes there was a decision to make — this is the episode.
